"Huh? What do you mean the safe is with the Crimson Fang Gang? Tsk... No, no, no, I'll take the job, of course."
After hanging up the phone, the two people next to Nicole spoke.
"Let's go, we're heading to 14th Street."
Wiping the gun in his hand, Billy reminded them.
"Boss Nicole, the Crimson Fang Gang seems to be evading the Peacekeepers' search, it's really chaotic. Are we sure we want to go?"
"What are you afraid of? We're just going to grab a safe."
"I've got it! Why don't we call Fu Hua to help us?"
"Will that work, Boss Nicole? Miss Fu Hua might not necessarily help us."
"Let's ask first. Whether she helps or not is up to her, but if we don't ask, she definitely won't come."
With that, Nicole didn't hesitate and started making the call.
Just then, a Void suddenly erupted on 14th Street.
The entire area was instantly swallowed by the Void.
As Fu Hua and the other three walked past a large screen, an alarm suddenly blared.
"It's a sudden Companion Void."
Hoshimi Miyabi said calmly.
Just then, her phone received a message.
Liu: Section Chief, there's an anomaly inside Hollow No. 0, and we need you to investigate.
Liu: Please return immediately.
Seeing this, Hoshimi Miyabi frowned.
"Teacher, I have to go on a mission. I'll come back in a few days."
"Alright, go ahead, Miyabi."
Waving her hand and watching Hoshimi Miyabi leave, Fu Hua also received a message from Nicole.
Nicole: Hey, Fu Hua, are you busy right now?
Nicole: My commission is to retrieve a safe from the Crimson Fang Gang's territory.
Nicole: It's on 14th Street.
Fu Hua: Mm, it seems like a Void has broken out there.
Nicole: Right, and there's also a Peacekeeper search operation.
Nicole: I wanted to ask if you could lend a hand.
"Go, go, go, Old Fossil, let me go! It's a good chance to have some fun."
The Herrscher of Reason, who was also looking at Fu Hua's phone, immediately chimed in.
"Okay, Sushang, do you want to go?"
"Huh? Ancestral Master, I'm fine with whatever you decide. Are you going?"
"...I was planning to return to Taixu Mountain."
"There's a Taixu Mountain here too?!"
The Herrscher of Reason asked in surprise.
"For certain reasons, I did get one brought over."
Scratching her cheek, Fu Hua explained.
"..."
The Herrscher of Reason and Li Sushang fell silent.
Looking at Fu Hua in front of them, for some reason, the two of them found it a little amusing.
"Ahem, anyway, I'm planning to go back to Taixu Mountain. After all, I still have a disciple to teach."
"Yo, Old Fossil, you took on another disciple!? A boy or a girl? What do they look like?"
"A girl, with white hair."
"...Be more specific."
"Gentle eyes, sparkling pupils, cheeks like..."
"Stop, stop, stop, I get it, I get it, just stop talking."
"Then you and Sushang go back first. I'm going to go play with this woman named Nicole."
"Okay, where's that phone you just bought? I'll help you register a Shengwang Account so you can add her."
After some tinkering, Little Herrscher successfully added Nicole.
Nicole: You, are you Fu Hua's sister?
Little Herrscher: Insolent! Call me the great Ms. Herrscher of Reason.
Nicole: ...So are you Fu Hua's sister?
Little Herrscher: Please call me the great Ms. Herrscher of Reason.
Nicole: Alright, then why do you have that name?
Little Herrscher: This is just a codename, like Agent 007.
Nicole: I see.
Nicole: Send me a thousand, let's see your skills.
Little Herrscher: !
Little Herrscher: Fine, if I send it to you, will you call me that?
Nicole: That's right.
Nicole: [Transfer 10000 Deni]
Nicole: [Starry eyes jpg]
Nicole: Great Ms. Herrscher of Reason!
Nicole: To receive your help is truly my great fortune.
"Hehehe... Gurgle--"
Beside them, Fu Hua, who was helping Li Sushang register an account, saw the Herrscher of Reason acting like this.
She asked doubtfully.
"Little Herrscher, what's wrong?"
"Hahaha, Old Fossil, look! I've successfully made this person named Nicole surrender at my feet within three minutes."
Li Sushang and Fu Hua blinked, then took a couple of steps back.
"Ancestral Master Chi Yuan, did the Ancestral Master get scammed?"
"Shh~ Probably not, she provided emotional value after all."
"But... isn't that your money, Ancestral Master Chi Yuan?"
"..."
Waving her hand, Fu Hua didn't intend to continue the conversation.
"Amazing, so when are you leaving?"
"Let me see, Old Fossil! I bought a weapon from your flat screen. I'm leaving now~"
After saying that, the Herrscher of Reason let out two loud laughs, summoned a hidden blade from the void, and flew away standing on it.
Watching the other's retreating figure, Fu Hua shook her head helplessly.
"Be careful of the safety of innocent people~"
"Got it, got it--"
"Sushang, let's head back to Taixu Mountain first."
"Okay, Ancestral Master Chi Yuan, can I buy a few more char siu buns?"
"Sure, go ahead."
"Hehe, thank you, Ancestral Master."
Meanwhile, on 14th Street.
Nicole, Billy, and Anbi were currently evading the Peacekeepers' search.
"Boss Nicole, when is Miss Fu Hua arriving?"
"Aiya, stop rushing, Fu Hua isn't coming."
"What? Then why are we hiding here? Let's just go in while it's chaotic."
"I wasn't finished speaking, her sister came."
"What! Miss Fu Hua has a sister? That's great, we're saved."
"Who! Who's there!"
The three trembled at the words. Nicole hit Billy on the head.
Then they hurried off in another direction.
"Stop! Don't run-- Tsk, report to the captain, team C has found three suspicious individuals."
"Understood, support is on the way."
"Billy! You're not getting your commission fee this time!"
"I'm sorry, Boss Nicole--"
Billy led the two of them on a mad dash.
As they rushed through an open iron door into a basement, he retreated back.
A look of delight appeared on the machine's face.
"Boss Nicole, this way!! There's a basement here we can hide in!"
Pulling open the iron door, the three of them darted inside, then closed the door together.
Panting, Nicole leaned against the door.
"Phew--Nice work, Billy, you've earned your fee."
"Hehe!! Thanks, Boss Nicole!"
However, when the three of them came to their senses, they were facing a tall, thin man in a floral shirt and a suit.
He had his white hair slicked back.
He sat in a chair with his legs crossed, holding a deck of cards.
Around him were over a dozen brothers, some slurping instant noodles, some smoking, each doing their own thing.
But almost all eyes were fixed on Nicole and her two companions.
"Ahaha, don't mind us, everyone, carry on, carry on~"
Anbi quietly slipped away at this moment, and while everyone else was stunned, he swiped the nearby safe.
"Nicole, it's the safe."
"Great, Anbi, let's go."
With that, the three of them acted as if they owned the place, coming and going as they pleased.
"Boss, play your card, I'm getting tired of waiting."
Hearing this, Old Bai's mouth twitched, and he slapped the cards onto the bald man's face opposite him.
"Play my ass, the safe was stolen!! Let's chase them--!"
