Under the night sky, the woman who fell from the building lay on the cold, hard ground, blood seeping from her deformed body, like a crimson dahlia quietly blooming.
She used the most extreme method to freeze her life in this moment of rich color, and then...
There was no 'then'.
Jiang Li quietly watched the people in the community rushing around, the noise, the sirens, and the sounds of crying converging in her ears.
What lingered in her mind, however, was the pale face looking down and the eyes so dim they seemed to absorb all light, when she looked at the falling woman through the window.
Soon, the sirens sounded within Happiness Community.
The light and shadow before Jiang Li seemed to melt, gradually becoming blurred.
"Did you see? That's how most people react when a beautiful dream shatters."
Lu Yibei's words echoed in her ears, and then, she woke up.
The light and shadow before her returned to normal. Jiang Li steadied herself, looked up and forward, and fell silent as she saw the Happiness Community residents in the dance hall with smiles on their faces.
"Actually, there's nothing wrong with letting them stay immersed in beautiful dreams. I think rather than saying those beautiful dreams are fake, it's more like they've been given a shot of stimulant for their real lives. Look, when they leave Happiness Community to go to school or work, aren't they doing just fine?" Lu Yibei continued.
Jiang Li glanced thoughtfully at Lu Yibei, then withdrew her gaze, reaching out with a somewhat dazed mind towards the porcelain cup on the tea table in front, but grasping empty air.
As if sensing Jiang Li's unstable emotions, Lu Yibei put away her trash talk and silently pushed the porcelain cup to her hand.
At a time like this, talking more to her was useless; she needed to be alone.
————
At exactly 11 o'clock, the Welcome Dance for the new owners of Happiness Community ended.
The new and old owners in the venue poured out of the bar like a receding tide, heading in all directions, and Got in their small houses.
Just like after the ball in a fairy tale, the harmonious scene in the bar, briefly maintained by Mengmeng's Spiritual Energy, also came to an end.
The tables, chairs, floor, and stone pillars that were damaged during the fight, having lost the blessing of Spiritual Energy, fell apart again, and in an instant, the bar was in ruins.
Jiang Li and Lu Yibei sat together in the corner of the dilapidated bar. It wasn't until this moment that she turned her head, looked at Lu Yibei, and spoke.
"Then let's just watch for now?"
"Hmm?" Lu Yibei froze for a moment, tilted her head to look at Jiang Li, thinking she had misheard.
"I said, let's let it stay in Happiness Community and see for now."
Jiang Li turned around and stared straight into Lu Yibei's eyes. That sharp, determined gaze made Lu Yibei feel a little apprehensive.
"I agree with part of what you said, but I also don't think it's entirely right, so I need to observe more."
Facts speak louder than words.
Lu Yibei thought leaving the urban legend of Happiness Community and not waking those people up was the best method, but Jiang Li felt it was only the best method for now, and what would happen in the future was unknown.
For example, if the low-probability event occurred and the Maitian God really came for Lu Yibei because a dependent was taken, and regained control of Mengmeng.
The residents of the entire Happiness Community immersed in beautiful dreams would once again fall to the bottom of the Maitian God's food chain, becoming Its food.
Thinking of this, Jiang Li spoke again, "We can put this issue aside for now. But you, you've offended the Maitian God. Aren't you going to find a place to hide? That's a dangerous guy."
Much more dangerous than Mr. Rabbit and his ilk... Jiang Li added in her heart.
The difference between the two is roughly the difference between a bandit and the leader of a terrorist organization.
Lu Yibei shook her head without hesitation, "Hide my ass!"
If that so-called Sky God was really that vicious and powerful, hiding would probably be useless. If I were found and died in the deep mountains and old forests, with no one to collect my body, it would be too desolate.
Besides, something like urban legend definitely won't talk about righteous vengeance and proper conduct. Let alone not harming neighbors, pet urban legend, or gay godfathers. If they can't find me, they'll probably be in trouble.
Furthermore, haven't they come knocking yet? When It does, it'll still be time for me to run! Lu Yibei thought fiercely.
"..."
Hearing the unexpected answer from Lu Yibei, Jiang Li frowned.
Why wasn't she being a coward this time?
"My home is in Hua City, I'm not going anywhere!" Lu Yibei added.
"Home? In the past, you would probably have sold your principles and relied on the Night Watch to save your life, right?"
Although in her current identity, it was inconvenient for Jiang Li to speak too clearly to Lu Yibei, she knew that Lu Yibei was a solitary person, and the only one who could be considered family was Bai Kai.
But if it were Bai Kai, even if the Maitian God appeared in person, if he couldn't beat It, he could always easily run away.
"No choice!" Lu Yibei said helplessly, "When you have more things you care about, even escaping isn't as straightforward! All those messy emotions really hinder me from traversing the Jianghu!"
"What's more, no matter how powerful the Maitian God is, I don't need to worry about It. If things get big, the Night Watch won't ignore it, right?"
"..."
You're clearly a urban legend, but when something happens, you're thinking of asking the Night Watch to cover for you! You're something else!
However, she was still scared before, and this is also good. This is how Lu Yibei should be.
Jiang Li muttered to herself, smiled slightly, patted her on the shoulder, and said, "Then keep it up, protect your home. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
Keep it up? Isn't there the Night Watch in Hua City? How could it be my turn to protect... Lu Yibei was stunned for a moment and said, "You're not going back to the rental house?"
"No." Jiang Li said faintly, "I might be going on a long trip recently for something important. I need to go back and pack my luggage and prepare."
"Ah, this... going on a long trip?" Lu Yibei frowned, "There are still dumplings and vinegar borrowed from the neighbor at home. Why don't you eat a meal before you go?"
Jiang Li crossed her arms, tilted her head, and stared at Lu Yibei for a few seconds, raising an eyebrow, "Are you reluctant to see me go?"
When Jiang Li asked this, Lu Yibei realized that her intention to keep her seemed to have been expressed a little too obviously without her noticing.
Although only children talk about friendship and adults only talk about pros and cons, Lu Yibei felt it was actually quite good to have a good friend like Jiang Li who could mutually benefit.
She froze, a look of disdain flashing in her eyes, "Bullshit! How could I be reluctant to see a woman like you go?"
"Then I'm relieved."
Jiang Li said, turned around, and waved at Lu Yibei, "Then I'll be going. Let's skip the farewell dumplings. When I come back, make me some welcome noodles, okay?"
If I can still come back... Jiang Li added in her heart.
Lu Yibei watched Jiang Li's departing figure, which looked like a delinquent older sister heading off to a group fight after school, for a long time. After a while, as if remembering something, she frowned.
"Strange... Aren't the main members of the Night Watch not allowed to leave their city without authorization? She's going on a long trip? Could it be an order from above, a business trip?"
————
Without rules, there is no order.
After Jiang Li left, Lu Yibei summoned Mengmeng again.
As she concentrated her mind and called Mengmeng's name in her heart according to the method taught by the mysterious girl Professor, a thin layer of white mist immediately filled the dark bar.
Immediately after, in a corner of the bar, the door leading to the back kitchen opened silently, and a figure slowly floated out, like a dream, without a sound. Countless semi-illusory pale tentacles waved behind Her, like floating hair.
A wind rose in the vast space, blowing "woo woo!" like someone crying, echoing together, like a group of people attending a funeral.
The woman with face paint and a dark green opera costume, with her back to Lu Yibei, got closer and closer to the rhythm of the Jews Harp, floated in front of Lu Yibei, and suddenly turned around for a dramatic pose, singing in an opera voice, "The wronged ghost weeps profusely in the underworld..."
Can't you do something more lively?
This eerie scene gave Lu Yibei goosebumps. Before Mengmeng could continue singing, she interrupted, "Don't sing, just talk properly!"
Although Mengmeng was free from the Maitian God's control and changed from that monstrous form to this.
But Lu Yibei always felt that compared to a gigantic monster-like urban legend, this eerie humanoid urban legend seemed even more terrifying.
A few months ago, before Mengmeng even came over, she would have already "gone over."
Yes, passed out.
Coming in front of Lu Yibei, Mengmeng curtsied and said softly, "Greetings, Master. May I ask what Master has summoned this servant for?"
"..."
Looking at Mengmeng's half-burned face, Lu Yibei was silent for a few seconds, wiped the sweat from her forehead without a change in expression, and said blankly, "Before we talk about serious matters, I want to tell you, don't be so spooky and ghostly in the future. I..."
"I have a friend, she doesn't like it! And stop playing the Jews Harp."
"Then what should this servant play?" Mengmeng blinked her pale, pupil-less eyes, tilted her head, and looked at Lu Yibei in confusion, looking ghostly cute.
"Play..." Lu Yibei thought for a moment, had a flash of inspiration, grabbed the suona next to her, and said, "Play this, some festive tunes."
"Festive?"
"That's right, just, just the theme song of 'love and magic girl Chapter 5'! The Qiuqiu version, not the Lingyin version, I don't like that trashy woman!"
Entrance BGM is a very important thing. No matter how terrifying the urban legend, if the entrance BGM is changed to such a girlish music, it will give people the illusion of playing some kind of galgame, right? Lu Yibei thought.
"But, this servant doesn't know how..."
"If you don't know, go learn!" Lu Yibei said in a deep voice.
"Anyway, you're usually free, aren't you? The next time I see you, I want to hear all the songs from the 'love and magic girl Original Soundtrack Season 1'!"
Hearing this, Mengmeng searched through the dreams of the residents of Happiness Community for a while and quickly found all the songs from the "love and magic girl Original God Album". Immediately after, a look of difficulty appeared between her eyebrows.
She had encountered situations like this when she was alive and wasn't surprised. At that time, as long as the "Master" wanted to hear a new tune, the troupe leader would have them learn it to please the Masters.
However, the instruments used in the songs Lu Yibei mentioned were not suonas!
Asking her to play songs composed of rock bands, symphony orchestras, and even electronic music on a suona was indeed quite difficult for a ghost.
Mengmeng looked at the suona that had been forced into her hand, then looked at Lu Yibei, and said weakly, "But Master..."
"If this servant spends time learning songs, I won't be able to bring more people into dreams, and I won't be able to help you collect their lifespan properly."
Hearing Mengmeng say this, Lu Yibei's expression became serious. She sat up straight, placed one hand on her cold shoulder, and said, "That's what I wanted to talk to you about."
"You don't need to pull people into dreams, and you don't need to collect their lifespan. All you need to do is prevent other urban legend from harming them, and do whatever you're interested in. That's enough."
"From now on, you are, barely, free, right?"
Mengmeng gazed at Lu Yibei, her pale eyes trembling slightly. In her sight, the girl's figure, in a trance, overlapped with the graceful man from over a hundred years ago. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Then, she tightened her grip on the suona and nodded heavily at Lu Yibei.
Thus, for the next six months, the residents of Happiness Community would have lucky audience members randomly selected each night to enjoy a clumsy suona version of the 'love and magic girl'episode in their dreams...
————
Late at night, in the rental house.
Qingji had told Lu Yibei to continue practicing her sword after she was done with things, and she hadn't forgotten. So as soon as she returned to the rental house, she went into the bedroom and lay like a corpse on the bed.
With her eyes closed, she let her consciousness empty, and soon she sank into a dream.
As the light and shadow before her changed from dark to bright, Lu Yibei arrived on the dilapidated rooftop, opened her eyes, and searched around for Qingji's figure.
I want to see what kind of trick he's going to pull today!
I've died hundreds of times, what kind of position haven't I tried?
Lu Yibei thought, and when she saw Qingji, she couldn't help but let out a soft gasp, "Holy crap?!"
I really haven't seen this one...
In the corner of the rooftop, Qingji was lying motionless on the ground face down in a strange posture, holding a long sword, with a few drops of blood scattered around him.
If a white outline were drawn around this scene, Lu Yibei would believe it was the scene of a murder.
She instinctively wanted to go forward and help him up. After walking only a few steps, she suddenly stopped as if remembering something. She held her chin with a vigilant look and fell into thought.
Wait, things might not be that simple!
Ancestor said last time, warfare is the art of deception. Besides the level of strength, not being tired of deceit is also a very important factor influencing the outcome of a battle.
Playing dead, is that the trick Ancestor prepared today? Lu Yibei thought, and silently distanced herself from Qingji.
So, Lu Yibei just let Qingji lie on the cold floor like that, while she quietly watched from the side.
It was like a silent battle, the two confronting each other from a distance, seeing who would lose patience first.
Then, Lu Yibei lost.
About half an hour later, she finally couldn't resist the urge to sneak attack Qingji. She rubbed out a Red Flame Flash and threw it towards Qingji.
A soccer-sized red fireball flew over with a "whoosh!"
It exploded on Qingji's back with a "bang!"
Flames shot out, clothes flew, and the air twisted in the heat wave.
Qingji let out a howl of "Ow!", his body struggled and writhed on the ground like a maggot Baobao for a while, then plopped onto the ground and stopped moving.
He's acting quite realistically... Lu Yibei muttered to herself, observing for a long time.
It wasn't until a few minutes later, when a scent of roasted meat drifted through the air, that she realized she might have roasted her own Ancestor, without adding cumin and green onions.
Simply insane! freewёbnoνel.com
"Ancestor, are you alright?"
Lu Yibei asked weakly, preparing to help Qingji up. However, before she could even reach him, his body turned into a pile of black ashes.
The wind blew, and they drifted away.
Lu Yibei, "..."
Can I say from now on that my grandpa's grandpa was cremated by me personally?
I thought Ancestor was playing a trick!
Too hasty, too hasty.
————
A moment later.
In the ruined city, pig-like screams rose and fell.
Lu Yibei, using the movement technique from the Taihe Gentleman Sword Illustration and her not-yet-skilled but rapidly improving flying ability, darted back and forth between the crooked buildings like a Monkey.
Qingji pursued her relentlessly from behind, holding a long sword that glowed with green light, his eyes wide with anger.
"You Smelly Girl, stop running. Actually, I was also wrong about this. I shouldn't have pretended to sprain my back last time and tricked you into coming so I could kill you."
"Uh-huh, that's right!" Lu Yibei nodded repeatedly, "Since we're both wrong, how about we just..."
"But, can an Adult's mistake be called a mistake? Take this! Taihe Gentleman Sword · Jun Tiansou!"
Looking at the long sword that had clearly pierced her chest, Lu Yibei, "???"
...
Friendly reminder: The Website is about to be revised, which may cause loss of reading progress. Please save your "book shelf" and "reading record" in time (screenshots are recommended). We apologize for any inconvenience caused!
"Were you wrong?"
"I was wrong." Lu Yibei admitted without hesitation.
"Look at the sword!"
...
"Did you make a mistake?"
"No!" Lu Yibei said decisively.
"You little brat, you won't admit you're wrong? Look at the sword!"
...
"Did you make a mistake?"
Lu Yibei, "..."
----
An hour later.
Lu Yibei lay exhausted on the rooftop, his eyes empty and lifeless, his body occasionally twitching, as if he had lost his dreams.
Qingji walked over to her side, sat down against the wall, and before she could get up and run, pressed his hand on her forehead.
"Alright, stop running, today's training is over."
As he spoke, his voice carried an undeniable weakness. Lu Yibei steadied herself and was shocked to find that the hand he pressed on her forehead and half of his face had turned translucent at some point, as if they could dissipate at any moment.
Seeing this, her eyes instantly turned red, and she quickly sat up and said, "What's wrong with you?"
Although Qingji had been sharpening his knife for the past two days, with her as the cow and her as the sheep, she was tortured to the point of wishing she were dead, but Lu Yibei could feel that Qingji was seriously teaching her something.
The most obvious manifestation was that she went from being instantly killed by Qingji's five-tenths strength to being able to last for more than ten seconds when he went all out.
Lu Yibei felt that this was not only due to her potential being stimulated under the high pressure of death's shadow, but also inseparable from Qingji's effective teaching.
Coupled with his face that was remarkably similar to her own Old Dad's, and the inexplicable blood relationship, Lu Yibei had unconsciously accepted him as a relative.
Qingji smiled and rubbed Lu Yibei's head, comforting her, "Silly child, I was originally just a wisp of residual Spiritual Energy. When the Spiritual Energy is almost consumed, it will naturally dissipate!"
"Don't worry, it won't disappear now. It's just that I probably won't be able to teach you sword practice like this often in the future..."
Halfway through his sentence, Qingji remembered the scene when the Maitian God intruded into Lu Yibei's consciousness, and a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.
"Speaking of which, how did you provoke such a ruthless character?"
"Ruthless character?"
"I didn't see the specific appearance, I just saw a monstrous wind rise, a large black cloud came, and then... I firmly stabbed it a few times." Qingji explained.
Lu Yibei was stunned for a moment before realizing that Qingji was talking about the Maitian God.
"Oh, I know who you're talking about."
Lu Yibei told Qingji everything she knew.
When she mentioned that Mengmeng was taken as a dependent by the Maitian God using some unknown method and was instructed to collect the lifespan of ordinary people, Qingji was furious and said, "How could such a thing happen?! Damn it, what is that guy's background?"
"Uh..." Lu Yibei briefly searched her mind for history related to smog and whispered, "It was probably born from the smog in London, England. I'm not sure about the specifics."
"Damn it, I knew those foreign devils were no good! I should have..." Qingji said in a deep voice, hitting his thigh hard as he spoke.
The more Lu Yibei listened, the more she felt something was wrong, and she quickly interrupted, "Stop, stop! Ancestor, please don't say any more, if you keep talking, it will lead to international disputes, which will be troublesome."
"..." Qingji was silent for a while, then waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I don't understand your current situation either, but don't worry, if that beast dares to come again, I can still repel it!"
Hearing this, Lu Yibei's lips parted slightly, and she was speechless for a moment.
"..."
Although Qingji's confident guarantee that he could repel the Maitian God made her feel very secure, at least her life was not completely unprotected.
However, a thought quietly arose in her heart: "It's best to handle it myself if possible, without the Ancestor having to intervene."
----
In the early morning.
After Lu Yibei recovered to her original state under the morning sun, she ate breakfast, and then followed the elderly in the Happiness Community park to do a set of elderly Tai Chi. Only then did she return to the rental house feeling refreshed.
After collapsing on the sofa like a puddle of mud, the first thing she did was take out her phone and log in to the Monster Story Chat Group's bounty Website.
After operating for a while and seeing the three big words "In Progress" after the claimed bounty in her personal interface, she was stunned.
After refreshing the interface several times and seeing that the bounty status had not changed, her face darkened.
"What does this mean? Do they want to get my labor for free?"
Although, given the intricate connection between Qingji and Mengmeng, and the situation in Happiness Community, she would have no complaints about working for free.
However, she couldn't tolerate someone trying to get free labor!
While thinking, she took a screenshot and quickly sent it to Miao Xiaoqi.
Wang Bu Liu Xing: "Are you there? Explain? 【Picture】"
Five seconds later, no one responded.
Wang Bu Liu Xing poked One Hundred and Two-Thirds Cats.
Wang Bu Liu Xing patted One Hundred and Two-Thirds Cats' butt.
Wang Bu Liu Xing pinched One Hundred and Two-Thirds Cats' ***.
...
One Hundred and Two-Thirds Cats: "Enough! There's a problem with your process for completing the bounty, we're discussing it! 【Angry】"
Wang Bu Liu Xing smoothed One Hundred and Two-Thirds Cats' fur.
Wang Bu Liu Xing: "Since you're discussing it, I won't bother you.
Wang Bu Liu Xing: "If you don't come up with a result, I'll come back and have an in-depth exchange with you on how to use the thirty-six reasons for reporting a certain goose software, and the one hundred and eight types of new online scams."
Wang Bu Liu Xing: "【Petting cat emoji】"
On the other side.
Miao Xiaoqi looked at the computer screen and twitched her mouth.
Are you petting a cat in the cloud here? Bah! How could I be like those ordinary cats?
While thinking, Miao Xiaoqi reached out, picked up a dried fish from the table, brought it to her mouth, took a fierce bite, and then she sent a few more messages to Lu Yibei, none of which received a response.
After a while, she realized that she had been blocked by that bastard again.
----
A moment later, in a villa area in the suburbs of Hua City, in a villa that had been uninhabited for a long time, several members of the Monster Story Chat Group Hua City branch were sitting together, discussing something intensely.
"I think they didn't complete the bounty!" Miao Xiaoqi argued forcefully, "The urban legend are still alive!"
"But it's clearly written on the bounty that the bounty publisher just doesn't want to disappear and doesn't want to lose lifespan because of the urban legend."
"Now that the urban legend have been taken as a dependent by Wang Bu Liu Xing, all ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) the problems have been solved, so why can't it be considered as completing the bounty?" a group member said.
"Then, what if something goes wrong in the future?" Miao Xiaoqi said.
She was a victim who had experienced Lu Yibei's torment, and she always felt that if the residents of Happiness Community fell into Lu Yibei's hands, it would be better than being controlled by the urban legend!
The Old Pervert smoothed things over, "Alright, Xiao Qi, if you keep insisting like this, be careful of being accused of seeking personal revenge. I've already asked Void, see for yourself..."
As he spoke, he raised his phone to Miao Xiaoqi and showed it to her.
Void: "Although the process of her completing the bounty is different from previous entrusted persons, the result has met the requirements, so it should be approved. By the way..."
Void: "Mention Ju Meng's matter to her, she should be interested."
Miao Xiaoqi stared at the phone screen for a long time, her eyes narrowing into slits with anger. She fiercely rubbed her claws on the table and said, "Tell me, why does Void always favor her?"
The Old Pervert looked at Miao Xiaoqi, who weighed less than a hundred pounds, was happy to be flat-chested, and happy to be short, and said indifferently, "Void, he probably has his own ideas?"
"Judging by your tone... you seem to have guessed Void's thoughts?" Miao Xiaoqi glanced at the Old Pervert.
"No!" The Old Pervert denied it outright.
Even if I guessed it, I can't tell you. With your mental fortitude, after a few rounds of Wang Bu Liu Xing's spam and report bombing, you'll tell her everything. The Old Pervert thought.
----
Lu Yibei had been holding his phone, waiting for Miao Xiaoqi's response. The moment the message notification sounded, he couldn't wait to open the chat software.
One Hundred and Two-Thirds Cats: "The result is out, you're lucky, you barely passed this time! Your points are enough now, do you want to exchange for the information about your father's cause of death?"
Lu Yibei looked at Miao Xiaoqi's reply on the screen, his mood instantly became heavy, and he was silent for a long time before replying.
Wang Bu Liu Xing: "Okay, send it over..."
One Hundred and Two-Thirds Cats: "【Internal Document No. 057.docx】"
Clicking to download the file, Lu Yibei stared intently at the progress bar. In just one or two seconds, he felt as if it were a century. After the file was downloaded, he eagerly opened it, and a document with pictures, tables, and over three thousand words appeared before him.
【Lu Ming's cause of death is related to an Eclipse Society urban legend research activity code-named "Human World", which began seven years ago. The first experiment was conducted in a village on the border of Laos, resulting in one hundred and thirty-two deaths and two disappearances...】
Lu Yibei scrolled up the file, roughly scanning the first half, which contained information about the Eclipse Society's research activities and movements. He quickly found what he wanted to see in a table.
【List of Participants in the Lu Ming Attack Incident
Xu Wentao, Eclipse Society member active in the Southwest region, Spirit Mark: Shadow of Depletion, Spiritual Energy fluctuation level B+, Deceased 【Picture】.
Lin Can, Eclipse Society member active in the Southwest region, Spirit Mark: Red Chain Flood Dragon, Spiritual Energy fluctuation level A-, Deceased 【Picture】.
...】
Lu Yibei looked at the list of sixty-seven people, over ninety percent of whom were already dead, and was secretly shocked.
More than ten A-level Spirit Ability Users, more than forty B Level Spirit Ability Users and urban legend...
These guys, could it be that Old Dad killed them all?
For a moment, he couldn't imagine that the hands that only knew how to cook and write trashy novels could kill so many Psychic.
The list continued to scroll down, and soon Lu Yibei saw the names of the only two remaining culprits.
"Zhang Shuo, code name: Plague Offering, high-level member of the Eclipse Society, has more than four Spirit Marks, known Spirit Marks: Strange Beast Fei, Spiritual Energy fluctuation level A+ or above 【Picture】, 【Picture】 (Warning! This person is extremely dangerous)"
"Suolang Baima, code name: White Lotus, Night Watch defector, Spirit Mark: Nine-Colored Lotus, Spiritual Energy fluctuation level A+ or above 【Picture】, 【Picture】 (Warning! This person is extremely dangerous)."
After reading the document sent by Miao Xiaoqi, Lu Yibei put down his phone and stared at the ceiling, lost in thought for a long time.
Ten minutes later, he finally moved the stiff muscles on his face, squeezed out a difficult smile, and muttered to himself, "65-2-0, Old Dad is awesome! So many people attacked him, and he killed them back. It's not a loss at all, it's a huge profit, ha... haha!"
"But..."
But where did the things they wanted to snatch from Old Dad go?
Have they already been snatched?
Just as Lu Yibei was thinking, his phone vibrated again. He picked it up and glanced at it, frowning.
One Hundred and Two-Thirds Cats: "If you want to know the movements of Zhang Shuo and Suolang Baima, you can continue to complete bounties to exchange for them."
One Hundred and Two-Thirds Cats: "Also, Void asked me to tell you that recently a group of people are secretly plotting against Ju Meng. If you want to know related information, you can also ask us."
Wang Bu Liu Xing: "I don't want to."
"???"
How is this different from what Void and A Se (Old Pervert) guessed!
Miao Xiaoqi on the other side of the phone was stunned for a moment when she saw Lu Yibei's reply, then her face turned angry, and her small hands tapped furiously on the keyboard.
One Hundred and Two-Thirds Cats: "Wang Bu Liu Xing, I didn't expect you to be such a heartless person. Your own Smelly Girl is about to die, and you actually don't care! I'm so angry!"
Wang Bu Liu Xing: "Ju Meng isn't even angry, what are you angry about? Do you want to be my Smelly Girl too? 【Black man with question mark face】"
One Hundred and Two-Thirds Cats: "Bastard, you wait! I'm going to apply for a replacement now, and I'll have the Old Pervert be in charge of you later!"
Wang Bu Liu Xing: "Waving~!".
After replying to the message, Lu Yibei put down his phone, looked at the dim ally mark on the back of his hand, and curled his lip.
If Smelly Girl really encounters something she can't solve and needs my help, won't she tell me herself? Do I still need you guys?
What's more, that Smelly Girl who claimed to be invincible and that the entire Night Watch together wasn't her match has been turned into a root carving. What can I do? Be buried with her?
As Lu Yibei was thinking, his phone vibrated again.
This damned cat, why is it endless?
Feeling the vibration, he frowned and was about to send a crash file to Miao Xiaoqi and block her, when he found that it was a message from Shui Ge using the Night Watch work account.
Bai Kai: "Agent Lu Yibei, due to Agent Jiang Li's temporary leave for some reason, and her strong recommendation for you to temporarily take over a series of tasks such as the weekly Friday night shift for one month. I now formally represent the Hua City Si Ye Hui to inform you to complete the work handover with Agent Bai Kai before next Wednesday."
Lu Yibei, "???"
Thirty seconds later, Lu Yibei received a voice message from Shui Ge using his private account.
"Beep—!"
"Xiao Bei! Surprise? Let me tell you, Li Xuan was strongly against you temporarily replacing Jiang Li, and even said that Du Sixian could temporarily replace her, but not you."
Lu Yibei, "..."
Is there a difference between Du Sixian temporarily replacing her and me temporarily replacing her?
"Beep—!"
"But what can we do? Our Hua City Si Ye Hui only has six main agents in total. The recommendation letter was written by Jiang Li, Gu Xiliu is often absent from meetings, I, An Qing, and Senior all voted in favor. He is all alone!"
Shui Ge: "Look at his face 【Picture】 【Picture】, it's uglier than when I punctured his tire!"
"Beep—!"
"However, how does Jiang Li know you so well? From Spiritual Energy data to physical data, she listed them in detail, and even the people who came for the video conference were barely convinced by her. Did you two do something shady behind my back? Office romance is prohibited in the Night Watch!"
Damn it, no wonder her tone was strange when she left last night, she was preparing to dig a hole for me... Lu Yibei held his forehead and pressed the voice message recording button.
"Shui Ge, is the Hua City Si Ye Hui so short of people? You know my current situation."
Shui Ge: "It's okay, we all trust you! 【Go for it!】"
Lu Yibei, "..."
What are they thinking?
Letting a Demoness Seed urban legend serve as the temporary main agent of the Hua City Si Ye Hui, this small broken city will be finished sooner or later!
