Her Head Shattered All Over the Ground
Fang Li wasn't surprised that the girl possessed the ability to easily take down criminals.
After all, this aquatic Academy City has everything, the most Star Pulse Generation, and many of them are strong. Almost every one of the Initial Page Twelve in the six academies is capable of doing this.
Therefore, Fang Li was not surprised by the girl's strength.
However, Fang Li could not ignore the way the girl Fang Li.
"I don't think I've introduced myself at all, have I?" Fang Li gripped the girl's wrist tightly and said, "Then, how do you know me?"
"Is that strange?" The girl seemed completely unconcerned about Fang Li's behavior, letting him hold her tightly as Fang Li calmly smiled and said, "Here, famous students are almost like celebrities; even outsiders might recognize them."
"Unfortunately, I'm not a famous student," Fang Li said. "I'm not only a freshman who just enrolled in Jielong a little over a month ago, but I'm also not Initial Page Twelve, and I'm not even ranked. I'm just a Mumei."
"No, no, no, you're not Mumei nobody." The girl shook her head, smiling meaningfully. "How could the Student Council President of Jielong, the personal disciple of ' Myriad Heavenly Net,' be Mumei?"
Fang Li raised an eyebrow immediately.
"Do you understand?" The girl shrugged and said, "In this Academy City, everyone knows ' Myriad Heavenly Net,' and everyone knows that the disciples he takes in are all exceptionally talented students, each capable of entering the rankings. Even among the Initial Page Twelve of the Realm Dragon, eleven are disciples of ' Myriad Heavenly Net Myriad Heavenly Net. ' Even if you don't have any combat achievements, just the fact that you are a disciple of ' Myriad Heavenly Net ' will make all the academies pay close attention to you, right?"
"And in fact, you do have that level of skill, don't you?" The girl closed one eye and smiled slightly. "To take down all the criminals here so easily, you definitely have the strength of the Initial Page Twelve, and that didn't even seem to be your full strength, did it?"
"We're in the same boat, aren't we?" Fang Li sighed and said to the girl, "Besides, you didn't even answer my question."
"... This is really persistent." The girl puffed out her cheeks and said with some dissatisfaction, "Boys like this are going to be disliked."
"Unfortunately, I'm the kind of person who's unwilling to give up." Fang Li said this, but then changed the subject. "Although I really want to say this, you don't seem to have any ulterior motives, and continuing to pester you would be a waste of time."
After saying that, Fang Li released her hand immediately. His decisive action surprised the girl, who then said helplessly after a moment, "You really are a strange person."
"Like I said, we're in the same boat," Fang Li replied, then turned around and picked up his phone, which he had accidentally dropped during the fight.
Fortunately, the phone wasn't broken.
However, the same doesn't necessarily apply to phone charms.
"Is it broken?"
Fang Li picked up the pendant from the ground with a sense of helplessness.
The cartoon version of Sylvia above appears to have been crushed, and her entire head is missing.
Seeing this, Fang Li couldn't help but chuckle and said, "The songstress's head is smashed to pieces."
"Hmm..." The girl suddenly became unhappy for some reason. She stepped forward, snatched the pendant from Fang Li's hand, and said without further ado, "This is confiscated."
"Huh?" Fang Li was immediately taken aback. "Why?"
"There's no reason." The girl's eyes darted around, and she brought her face close to Fang Li's, smiling at Fang Li, "Or are you just reluctant to let me steal your idol's merchandise?"
Only after the girl approached so abruptly did Fang Li finally get a clear look at her eyes, which had been hidden under the brim of her hat.
Those were a pair of eyes that shone with a bright light, like amethyst.
Such a pair of bright eyes, combined with the girl's lovely appearance, suddenly made her simple aura become somewhat glamorous.
Fang Li looked at the girl's face that was so close to him and felt a sense of unease.
Why do I feel like I've seen this face somewhere before?
With this thought in mind, Fang Li asked in a puzzled tone, "Have we met somewhere before?"
"Huh?" The girl blinked, then said with a hint of amusement, "Is this a way of picking up girls? It's a bit outdated, isn't it?"
"No..." Fang Li stared intently at the girl's face and said, "It does seem like I've seen her somewhere before..."
The girl's face was already very close.
Being stared at so intently by Fang Li, anyone would assume that he might kiss them at any moment.
The girl's pretty face flushed slightly. She subtly distanced herself, coughed, and said deliberately, "It seems you're not a boy to be underestimated."
Fang Li was stunned by these words.
What do you mean by "not a guy you can underestimate"?
"Alright, let's hurry up and get out of here. If we stay any longer, who knows what else we might run into?"
With those words, the girl turned around and slowly walked in one direction.
Seeing this, Fang Li could only suppress his questions and follow.
"Arrive."
In a narrow alley leading to the outside, the girl stopped, pointed outside, and said, "Go out from here, follow the road straight, and you'll reach the subway station. Take the subway and go back to Jielong."
"Understood." Fang Li nodded and said, "Thank you for showing me the way."
"You're welcome. I had quite a fun time." The girl smiled playfully and waved to Fang Li.
"Well then, we'll part ways here. I hope you'll remember me when we meet again."
"Someone like you, it'd be hard for me to forget you even if I wanted to." Fang Li shrugged and asked, "By the way, what's your name?"
"A name?" The girl raised her eyes, looked at Fang Li, then chuckled and said this.
"Just call me Sylvia Lyyneheym."
"Sylvia Lyyneheym?" Fang Li was taken aback.
During this time, the girl untied the decorative ribbon wrapped around one of her hands and put it into Fang Li's hand.
"Here, take this as a replacement for the confiscated merchandise. I've used it for a long time, so I can't lose it again, okay?"
After saying that, the girl walked back into the alley and quickly disappeared.
Fang Li, holding the green ribbon, finally understood.
"I see, no wonder it felt so familiar."
