Chapter 274 Kafka: Darling, may you come see me?
After being mocked by Lin Shuang face-to-face, Qingque complained bitterly.
She sent several more angry emojis before finally calming down.
Perhaps after complaining, the resentment of a working person made Qingque lose the energy to continue finding fault.
Lin Shuang couldn't help but laugh when she imagined Qingque pouting as she worked.
Tingyun, on the other hand, only realized that Lin Shuang was taking pictures of her afterward.
Curious, he stood on tiptoe and rested his head on Lin Shuang's shoulder, watching their conversation with great interest.
"Hehe~ Miss Qingque is so cute. I always see Miss Qingque playing cards. I thought the Divination Department was very free."
A gentle voice, tinged with laughter, rang in my ears.
The tingling sensation made Lin Shuang's ears turn slightly red.
"It's just that Qingque is good at taking breaks, but obviously there won't be a chance today."
As Lin Shuang spoke, she moved her shoulder off Tingyun's chin.
As I got closer, the fragrance of Tingyun kept wafting into my nose.
She truly lives up to her reputation as Foxfolk beauty; she's incredibly alluring.
Tingyun didn't mind, pulled Lin Shuang to sit down at the dining table, and urged Lin Shuang to eat while it was hot.
"So, after this incident, how long do you plan to stay in Luofu?"
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
"I just wonder when my benefactor will return to Luofu if he leaves."
Tingyun's tone was resentful, as if she was reluctant to see Lin Shuang leave.
"I'll come back if something fun happens, and besides, you've been really busy lately."
That's true.
Lin Shuang smiled and glanced at Tingyun, then said:
"I'll probably be in Penacony afterward, waiting for the Charmony Festival to open. If you're free, you can take some time off and go have some fun."
Tingyun opened her folding fan and stared at Lin Shuang with a smile.
"I would be honored to accept your invitation, my benefactor. If I can find the time, I will certainly go."
However, that's what they say.
But Tingyun herself had no hope for it.
Not to mention that the Six Commissions of Luofu will be very busy for some time to come.
Just take the work of the Chamber of Commerce in Tingyun as an example. Because I have been staying in Luofu for a period of time, there have been many things that need to be dealt with.
If things get really busy, I might not be able to find the time for Penacony's Charmony Festival.
Lin Shuang met Tingyun's eyes, and with just a glance, Lin Shuang inexplicably understood what Tingyun meant.
But he didn't say anything.
Ultimately, one's own career is the most important thing.
The Tingyun came quickly and went quickly.
It seems that although he took leave, he wasn't so relaxed that he could wander around outside all day.
We saw Tingyun.
I thought no one else would come, but Xing came over all by herself.
They knocked on Lin Shuang's door.
I've come to play with you!
Xing, hands raised and face full of excitement, squeezed into Lin Shuang's house.
Lin Shuang glanced outside a few times, then looked at Xing, who had taken off her shoes and was walking home, with a puzzled expression.
"Just you? Where are March 7th and the others?"
"Dan Heng and Uncle Yang went off to fight Emperor's Jade early this morning on March 7th, without even calling me!"
Xing angrily put her hands on her hips and complained to Lin Shuang about March 7th's 'despicable' behavior of abandoning her for playing cards.
He looks really angry.
Lin Shuang listened to Xing's complaints with a smile as she led her into the house.
However, it's a bit strange that Xing didn't invite him when we went out to play on March 7th.
"Why didn't I call you? That shouldn't be the case."
Because I wasn't fully awake at the time.
Xing gave a perfectly reasonable and irrefutable argument.
Lin Shuang remained silent after hearing this.
"Damn it! Why didn't she invite me to play cards? Is it just because I didn't hear her call me?!"
"..."
Never mind.
I don't want to complain.
Lin Shuang sighed, she was not a complainer like March 7.
"So what did you call me here for?"
"I wanted to hang out with you. I slept until noon, and when I woke up, I was all alone in the hotel. I figured I should find someone to go out with."
Xing chuckled and moved closer to Lin Shuang.
Lin Shuang glanced at Xing in surprise.
This person actually came to ask me to go shopping?
Oh, you have this hobby?
Just then, Lin Shuang's phone rang again.
"... Who is it this time?"
That's really strange.
Why are so many people looking for me today?
Lin Shuang pulled out her phone with a puzzled look, tapped the screen, and saw a familiar anonymous account:
[Anonymous: Honey, could you come to the Divination Department? I'll send you the coordinates.]
[Anonymous: I might need some of your help.]
[Anonymous: If Xing is here too, it's fine to have her come along.]
[Anonymous:-- Kafka]
How did this text message end up with her?
Lin Shuang raised an eyebrow and then replied:
[Lin Shuang: How can you prove it?]
[Anonymous: [Image]]
Kafka's beautiful selfies, Photos that highlight her voluptuous upper body, are just casual snapshots.
Surprisingly, it has a really good feel to it; it's wallpaper-worthy.
Lin Shuang silently chose to save the message, and then replied:
[Lin Shuang: Okay, but I remember your wanted status was lifted, wasn't it?]
[Anonymous: Blade hasn't had his yet; his Scythe of Annihilation flared up, and he needs time to recover.]
[Anonymous: I'm sorry to have dragged you into my trouble.]
[Lin Shuang: It's okay, just send me the address.]
[Anonymous: Honey, thank you]
[Anonymous:[Location Information]]
Lin Shuang still remembers this part of the plot; it mainly involved Kafka revealing some intelligence and information to Xing.
Furthermore, if you completely refuse to meet them, the mission will end immediately, and you will receive the reward.
Kafka probably already knew that he was with Xing at this time.
And since they were in a safe location where they wouldn't be disturbed, they probably chose this time to send themselves a text message.
After all, even if the message is sent to Xing, there's a 50% chance she won't actually see him.
But Lin Shuang and Kafka are closer, so Lin Shuang will definitely go.
Xing was just looking for Lin Shuang to kill time, and since Lin Shuang said she was going to find Kafka, it was almost certain that Xing would follow her.
With that thought in mind, Lin Shuang showed the chat history to Xing.
As expected, this person didn't think twice at all. When he saw Lin Shuang say she was going, he immediately agreed to go with her.
"You really want to come along? Aren't you going to ask Welt and Himeko for their opinions?"
Lin Shuang put away her phone and, while preparing to change her clothes, asked Xing for her decision.
As a member of the Star Rail Express, shouldn't I ask for the opinions of the senior members of the Train?
"I'll ask right now! Wait for me!"
Xing took out her phone to contact her guardian.
While Xing was contacting her parents, Lin Shuang changed into some more comfortable clothes.
If I remember correctly, after meeting Kafka, I think I also ran into Yanqing.
We might have to fight again.
Hmm... let Xing fight it.
I won't get involved myself.

Chapter 275 Star: Did I arrive at the wrong time?
During the Star Link Train's operation.
Lin Shuang changed into a set of clothes that were easier to move in.
A simple and plain sports jacket conceals the upper body's curves.
The shorts, which only reached the upper thighs, revealed her fair and straight legs.
Now that things have come to this, Lin Shuang would no longer make any pretentious remarks like "being disliked for having a striking appearance when walking down the street."
