Chapter 97: Get in!

“They are students from Huajiang Vocational College.”

“After listening to Fifth Sister’s lecture last time, they were probably the only two students who actually took it in.”

Chen Fan gave a faint explanation.

Meng Rongrong nodded.

It was rare for anyone to be able to listen to Jiang Ni’s nagging in that sort of setting.

...

“General Xiriahong...”

After I forced out those words in a breath as faint as a thread, my consciousness began to blur, until I lost it altogether.

“Since you refuse to speak, then let me show you all something good.”

Abyss Zero had clearly anticipated the outcome of this exchange and did not care in the least. He clapped his hands to rouse Hail and Angle, whose minds were still clouded, then swept his right hand outward.

With a clenched fist, strands of spiral origin power pillars rose into the air, silently merging into space itself, like a surging, soundless current that dragged the Gray Bear Lord into its depths.

With only a gentle sweep, the bead curtain was severed in two, falling drop by drop like rain from the eaves.

Lei Tianxiao and Liu Xianju were perhaps somewhat more deeply rooted in inner strength than Yin Yixiong; outwardly, they seemed unharmed, but the swords in their hands appeared to have been swept into an unfathomable vortex, liable at any moment to be swallowed or snapped in two.

Still, the people of these factions were also uneasy about the matter. They had their own channels for learning what was going on, and no matter how one looked at it, the thing did seem real, didn’t it?

Tan Cen came back to herself and studied her own body. She lifted the skin at her ankle with her hand; there was not a single scar. According to the original owner’s memories, this former self had seemingly never been taken seriously by anyone. She had gone into the mountains to gather herbs, been bitten by a venomous snake, and died before she ever managed to seek help.

After receiving my call, Wang Chen immediately said yes. He then had someone bring the five of them back to the criminal investigation brigade. During the whole time, he did not say much at all—only thanked me once, then hung up.

Thinking of all this made Cheng Yaxin unable to suppress her anger. Besides, more than once she had heard people say that Gu Baor was young and beautiful and looked even better on camera than she did, and that once the drama aired, Gu Baor would surely sweep everything before her.

If there was a need for research, the Adjudication Bureau and the Special Affairs Bureau were almost one and the same, so there was no problem of poor communication or selfish hoarding of information affecting efficiency.

Accelerator blinked, and when he opened his eyes, he found himself back in the real world. A violent surge of energy was rising directly before him.

However, the Moon Fox goblins that had surrounded us did not rush forward to attack. Instead, they seemed to be waiting for something.

Lin Feng was a little puzzled by this. If one or two wholesale customers held a grudge against the Ice and Snow Group, he thought that was normal. But every wholesale customer on the list had such a bad attitude, and that was rather unusual.

The moment Lu Shiyu imagined her remaining at the police station with a belly full and swollen with child, his handsome face darkened with storm clouds. A chill seemed to seep from his bones, so intense that everyone in the station barely dared to breathe.

“You’re the stupid one. Don’t pinch me. Who told you to pinch me, hmph...”

Blushing, Bai Muxue stared straight at Lin Feng with her bright eyes. Though she said she did not want him pinching her, she made no move to stop him from pinching her cheek.

Huang Qingyuan spoke lightly, but in his heart he had already made up his mind. He could not afford to offend the Medicine King Hall, but he had no need to fear Thunder Hall.

As he roared, Li Xiong tightened his grip on the gun in his hand. His index finger, twitching faintly on the trigger, clearly showed signs of pulling it.

“What’s wrong? Is it that we don’t look good in qipaos?”

Sylvia and Charlotte asked Song Jie at the same time.

So, the instant Yue Fang was still trying to needle her, she became even less willing to back down. She lifted her head and glared at Yue Fang, intending to hurl a few curses, when suddenly a stabbing pain shot through her ankle so sharply that she could not even get the words out.
