I underestimated him.
The young man began to recall, including the scenes of fighting members of the Insect Blood Society.
Shi Jing received some of the information, and then looked at him... he had completely closed his eyes.
The otaku had left this world.
Chapter 42: Brewing Some Purified Water
Half an hour later, the Captain walked out of the door. Seeing Shi Jing standing with his back to him by the stairs, he sighed deeply:
"There's a mastermind behind this incident."
The first words out of his mouth made Shi Jing's heart tighten.
"Captain, did you find something?"
"There's something strange. Our final examination confirmed that Min Xingyuan's sudden actions were related to an unknown woman. However..." he said, turning to look at the woman walking out, "Zhuyu didn't sense that person's presence."
"Right," the woman said, spreading her hands. "Min Xingyuan hired someone to tip off a streamer, asking them to declare war on the Shadow Bureau in the name of the Insect Blood Society. If that's the case, why would the Insect Blood Society conflict with him? It only shows that they aren't on the same side. This is most likely a case of using a borrowed knife to kill. Someone is using us, the Shadow Bureau, to suppress the Insect Blood Society. However... when investigating the identity of the person behind it, I found no related intelligence, as if I were chasing a dead person who doesn't exist."
"Soul searching?" the Captain asked.
"Min Xingyuan's lips are sealed; there's no way to get him to reveal more."
"Alright, let him rest in peace." The Captain tapped the wall. "If you can't solve this, then the higher-ups will have to deal with it."
"Are there any other tasks for now?"
"No," the Captain shook his head, glancing thoughtfully at Shi Jing. "What do you think of that kid who died?"
"Probably... a bit sad," Shi Jing replied after thinking for a long time.
On Ye Qian's main body's side, she glanced at the several Explosion Rings in her hand and sighed, recalling the content she had obtained from Min Xingyuan's mind.
"At this rate, the Insect Blood Society will be wiped out by the Shadow Bureau sooner or later. If I want a method for advancement, I really need to act in advance."
She seemed to recall hearing them mention a certain place in her memory.
"Miss Battle No. 1, it's your turn to go."
She was a bit more ojousama than Miss Cannon Fodder No. 1, with a standard height of 1.7 meters. Of course, her appearance was slightly different; not to mention Miss Cannon Fodder No. 1's hair had a slight curl at the ends.
The corpse was still soaking in the water.
Miss Battle patted her chest.
"So soft and bouncy, hmm, no, this isn't the time to focus on this."
She took a large batch of Explosion Rings, which had been made overtime, and left.
Of course, Alice also went with her, but for safety, Ye Qian put a black wig on Alice to cover her up.
Splitting up.
As it would take some time to reach the destination, Ye Qian picked up her mobile phone and looked at the chat records in an app.
No one was talking in the group chat, but she found she had received a private message.
It was from Lan Xinyu.
Lan Xinyu: "Little Ye Qian, do you still have that... Purified Water that your jiojio soaked in? (blush)"
Adult of Four Seasons (Ye Qian): "???"
Her expression became strange.
Within a few seconds, Lan Xinyu's reply came.
Lan Xinyu: "Um... although the talents drawn in the main world are only useful in that world, if I remember correctly, if a talent increases one's ability, that ability can take effect in reality and dungeons. Can your little jiojio soak Purified Water in reality?"
Lan Xinyu: "Ah, although it tastes good, it's not what I wanted for myself. I just wanted to use it to treat an illness."
Black lines appeared on Ye Qian's forehead.
Why did you specifically emphasize that it tastes good?
Adult of Four Seasons: "I told you, this ability isn't just for feet, hands can do it too! (angry)"
Lan Xinyu: "Okay, okay, so it's useful in reality?"
Adult of Four Seasons: "Yes."
Lan Xinyu: "Then I'll bring a bucket to your place. Give me your location."
Good heavens, she's coming directly?
Ye Qian took a deep breath and sent her the hotel's location: "I'm temporarily staying here."
"OK, it's very close to you. I'll be there in 10 minutes."
Ye Qian rolled her eyes.
As expected, it hadn't even been ten minutes when someone rang the doorbell.
Click!
As soon as the door opened, a slightly sleazy figure hurried in.
"Little Ye Qian!"
A big hug.
"Finally, I get to see you in real life. Oh my god, do you always wear white stockings? You're too cute! I'm going to die."
Ye Qian was pushed against the wall by her. After a slight struggle, she pushed the other person back half a step.
"Ah, you're so strong. Your level is much higher than mine."
Lan Xinyu glanced around the room, noting its tidiness.
She subconsciously glanced at Ye Qian's body, then opened the lid of the bucket, which was full of water.
"Mineral water, I prepared it earlier."
"Then I'll purify it." Ye Qian extended her hand.
"Mmm, wait." Lan Xinyu suddenly stopped her.
"Huh?" Ye Qian was taken aback. To her surprise, the other girl's face suddenly turned very red, and she said shyly, "It's just... can you use your little white stocking feet?"
"..."
Ye Qian's eyes gradually narrowed, her expression looking at a pervert.
"Don't misunderstand, I'm just afraid the effect from your hands won't be as good as from your feet. Really."
"..."
After a long silence, just as Lan Xinyu was about to backtrack out of embarrassment, Ye Qian muttered and replied, "Fine."
You've drunk it more than once anyway.
Chapter 43: The Clock Shop
Sitting back on the bed, Ye Qian was truly speechless seeing the other girl excitedly lift the bucket in front of her, her face full of anticipation.
How can there be such a perverted girl?
Although upon closer inspection, Lan Xinyu was quite pretty, her current demeanor was a little frightening.
Ye Qian lifted her legs and said, "The stockings..."
"No need to take them off, no need to take them off! How can I trouble you?"
Ye Qian: "..."
Speechlessly, she extended her feet. Her two little white-stockinged toes slowly touched the surface of the water, then slowly submerged.
Her snow-white legs were placed in the bucket, the stockings clinging to her skin, with a faint flesh tone showing through the water.
[Purifying...]
"You're not going to say it's some 'water soaked by a beautiful girl' that you're going to sell for money, are you?" Ye Qian asked sternly.
"No, no, no, how could I? I'll drink it all myself... Pfft, I mean, I'll use it to treat my family's illnesses."
"Emmm..."
No need to hide it, you just want to drink it yourself.
Although Ye Qian's ability could indeed make water healthier, specifically wanting feet to soak in it was the most outrageous thing she had ever seen.
"Hehe..."
Lan Xinyu giggled, looking at the girl's tender, white-stockinged feet soaking in the water, and her snow-white legs.
A few minutes later...
"Done!"
Lifting her leg, Ye Qian's own face turned red as she saw the water droplets falling from it.
She rolled her eyes and taunted, "Why don't you just lick it clean?"
"Okay... Pfft, no need for that."
Lan Xinyu felt as if she had exposed something.
"..."
Wringing out her stockings and putting on her slippers, Ye Qian suddenly thought of something and asked, "Do you know about purple crystal coins?"
"Purple crystal coins? Do you have any? When I was chatting privately with Chen Ning before, he also mentioned this thing. I heard it can be exchanged for money and is the currency of the hidden circle."
Ye Qian took out two coins from her pocket and placed them in her palm: "I want to cash these in."
"Wow, are these purple crystal coins? Where did you get them?"
"Luck, I guess. Can you help me exchange these for money?"
Lan Xinyu stroked her chin: "That's possible. Chen Ning seems to need these things. Maybe he'd be willing."
"Can you help me find him to exchange them? The price can be a little bit lower, and I'll give you some for your trouble."
"No need for the errand fee. After all, you've given me so much Purified Water."
Seeing the clear Purified Water, Lan Xinyu excitedly covered the child, her gaze subconsciously flicking to Ye Qian's tender little feet again.
"What are you always looking at? Do you really want to lick them?" Ye Qian glared at her, blushing, a hint of fear in her expression.
"No, no, don't overthink it, what kind of person do you think I am?"
Seeing her quickly wave her hands, Ye Qian let out a sigh and handed over 2 purple crystal coins.
"I'm counting on you. Once the money arrives, just transfer it through the temporary account, or give me cash offline. I'm worried about any trouble."
"Okay."
A few minutes later, Lan Xinyu said goodbye to Ye Qian.
After the other woman left, a green-haired head suddenly emerged from the covers.
"Phew, I didn't let her discover my clone. That's a relief."
Actually, she felt the probability of being discovered wasn't small. But if she was caught, it wouldn't matter much; she'd just pretend to be a sleeping friend.
She glanced at the time. Over 30 minutes had passed since the two clones left, and they hadn't reached their destination yet.
"I still feel a bit uneasy. Ye Xin, you should go too."
Her combat power wasn't enough. After all, Combatant 1's strength wasn't very high. With just the "Swift Flash" white skill and some effects of Blade Intuition, her strength was truly lacking.
Another 20-plus minutes later, Alice arrived near the destination first.
She was accompanied by a small dog.
"Empathy."
Woof woof!
