Sparkle: Little White-Hair Finally Can't Resist Making a Move on Me?

Lin Shuang was already wondering how she would deal with it if Sunday was just another day where they continued to use the excuse of 'caring for her younger sister' to brush it off.

As a result, things suddenly went wrong on Sunday.

Shouldn't Sunday be for those scheming, behind-the-scenes figures?

For the first time, Lin Shuang began to doubt her own judgment.

Could they be trying to trick me?

There were actually other people behind on Sunday, but they did so to Firefly.

Use Sunday to distract the Firefly's attention.

The main problem is that we haven't even started our own investigation yet, so why did it suddenly begin on Sunday?

Has the head of the Oak Head of the Family misunderstood something?

So,

If Sunday was the mastermind.

What about Gallagher?

Which side is this guy on?

Penacony's power structure really that complex?

As Lin Shuang thought this, she decided to test the waters.

"That Security Officer named Gallagher... isn't one of yours?"

Lin Shuang was puzzled.

On Sunday, he also observed Lin Shuang's changing expressions. She seemed somewhat confused about her answer.

The question Lin Shuang then raised made Sunday realize that Lin Shuang probably did not yet have complete evidence and information.

And they were puzzled by their own compromise.

That's normal, though.

On Sunday, Lin Shuang would likely see herself as the mastermind behind a scheme that included her own younger sister.

The conversation probably didn't go as Lin Shuang expected.

However, he brought up the mysterious Security Officer himself.

Was she implying that she would divert the Firefly's attention elsewhere?

However, Gallagher's appearance was also not part of Sunday's plans.

It would also be dangerous for Sunday to let the Firefly continue investigating Gallagher.

Sunday shook his head.

"No, actually I'm investigating him too."

As of Sunday, it has not been determined which faction Gallagher belonged to, or what his purpose was in infiltrating Penacony.

"Miss Lin Shuang, do you wish to continue investigating that Security Officer? We can cooperate."

Alright, alright, you really are trying to turn me against you.

Speaking of Firefly, it seems that Lin Shuang is the only person unrelated to the Family around her.

"No need, I'm employed by the Firefly after all."

Lin Shuang firmly declined Sunday's invitation.

But for some reason, the way they looked at me on Sunday was a bit friendlier.

"That's true, I was presumptuous. However, if my investigation yields any results, I will pass the information on to the Firefly."

The ensuing conversation was rather fruitless.

It is unclear whether, at least outwardly, Gallagher was not planning to discuss the matter on Sunday.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lin Shuang left directly.

Lin Shuang was somewhat puzzled by Sunday's attitude.

But one thing is certain: Sunday was definitely plotting something.

After all, he had implied during the conversation that there were people behind him on Sunday.

Let Lin Shuang protect the Firefly.

It's almost certain that the Firefly is looking for the Family mole, and that's most likely Sunday.

Or at least Sunday is one of them.

I don't understand why they would reveal themselves on Sunday; perhaps it was to confuse the public.

In short, this can be considered a clue for Lin Shuang.

Thinking this way.

Lin Shuang walked out of the Morning Dew Mansion.

On the other side.

After Lin Shuang left, the Dream Master reappeared.

"Is this how you handle things? Showing weakness to the enemy, and even intending to hand over the Chosen Ones to others."

"But at least we've confirmed that she has a sense of contractual obligation, haven't we? Her attention can be diverted to other things."

On Sunday, with one hand behind his back, he calmly gazed at the Dream Master before him.

"You should know that, in the plan, the Firefly is the main character of the Charmony Festival."

"I know, but the plans have clearly changed, and the chosen ones don't need to go on stage before the opening. They just need to wait."

"..."

The Dream Master remained silent for a moment.

It seemed very keen for Lin Shuang to stay at Penacony on Sunday.

They were even willing to make concessions on their own initiative.

Mikhail Gopherwood realized this.

"Then proceed according to your plan, but I will continue to monitor her every move."

"Mr. Gopherwood, that would be best."

Sunday did not react in any way to the Dream Master's warning.

It wasn't time to lay his cards on the table yet; he needed to convince the Dream Master that his conversation with Lin Shuang was merely a delaying tactic.

Chapter 286 Sparkle: Is that little white-haired guy finally going to attack me?

I left the Morning Dew Mansion.

Lin Shuang was pondering the questions for Sunday.

I hadn't thought about it in detail during our previous conversation.

Morning Dew Mansion was a Sunday venue, and there was no one else present at the time.

However, on Sunday, he still chose to give a subtle reminder in a roundabout way.

This means...

On Sunday, was it a collaborator, or a superior?

They might be paying attention to the Morning Dew Mansion.

And Sunday's plans will Firefly.

But he himself doesn't seem to want to involve the Firefly.

So here's the question.

The ability to monitor even on Sunday makes one wary of something that can be monitored even on Sunday.

Does it also possess, or even surpass, surveillance capabilities?

If that's the case.

So, we should probably be careful when Penacony and the Firefly exchange information.

At least that's what we talked about today.

Whether or not to inform the Firefly of the conclusion requires careful consideration.

Perhaps I should find an opportunity to leave Penacony with the Firefly.

No matter how powerful the Family members are, it's impossible for them to be monitored on Azur Star or Luofu.

In short, let's put these things aside for now.

Despite encountering other issues, Lin Shuang decided to continue searching for Gallagher's whereabouts.

Try to make contact with the other person.

Just as Lin Shuang walked past a street corner...

Suddenly, a strong figure appeared beside Lin Shuang.

A deep voice sounded in Lin Shuang's ear:

"Nice to meet you, miss. I heard you've been looking for me everywhere? Well then, may I ask what brings this beautiful lady to this old man's door?"

The tall, muscular man spoke in a nonchalant tone.

He held a can of beer in one hand and leaned the other against the wall, making a flippant expression.

Judging by appearance alone, he was none other than Gallagher Lin Shuang was looking for.

But a subtle sense of incongruity immediately comes to mind.

Mystic Markings flashed in Lin Shuang's eyes, and she instantly saw through the true nature of the person before her:

"Sparkle, you still dare to come looking for me?"

"What Sparkle? Miss, have you mistaken me for someone else?"

The 'Gallagher' in front of her didn't admit it; instead, he smiled at Lin Shuang with a nonchalant attitude.

"Yeah?"

Lin Shuang didn't waste any words. She turned to the side and raised her leg, accompanied by a whistling wind and a sudden burst of red flames.

His straight, slender right leg, like a whip lashed out, locked onto Gallagher's chest with overwhelming force.

Boom--

The burst of flames was fleeting.

Sparkle, who had hastily dodged to avoid Lin Shuang's attack, finally lost her disguise.

She regained her thin and small appearance.

"Oh dear~ why can't I fool you?"

Having been exposed, Sparkle deliberately pouted in front of Lin Shuang, looking adorably defiant.

But those cunning eyes were filled with an unyielding smile.

One look is enough to tell that this person is putting on an act again.

Sparkle walked up to Lin Shuang in her light, sandal-like shoes.

He stood on tiptoe, staring intently into Lin Shuang's eyes.

It was as if he wanted to memorize every detail of Lin Shuang's pupils.
