Fairy Queen Is Your Sister

At Lin Yu's request, Nightless Sky Huo Le ultimately showed leniency and let the gang members from Gray Street Three go.

Of course, this "letting them go" only meant giving them a way out and not executing them on the spot. If you investigate these gang members, mercenaries, and middlemen thoroughly, you'll find that each of them has violated many of the laws of City That Never Sleeps, broken various rules of Truth Company, and harmed the company's interests.

Small fry are one thing, but it's inevitable that big and small bosses will have to spend some time in the Security Bureau.

On the return trip, Lin Yu smiled and spoke, looking at the still somewhat displeased Nightless Sky Huo Le.

"I'm perfectly fine, so why are you looking so glum?"

At this moment, only Nightless Sky Huo Le and Lin Yu were in the back seat. After Nightless Sky Huo Le closed the partition, the driver naturally could not see what was happening in the back, so he was no longer the imposing and shrewd man he had been just moments before.

She snorted coldly, her anger rising in her eyes. "And you still dare to talk? One night you became a wanted criminal by the Security Bureau, and you were even fighting with these mercenaries on Gray Street Three. Sherlock, can't you have any self-awareness about your status—a rich man's son shouldn't sit under a dangerous roof!"

"Today's situation is far from dire for me," Lin Yu said calmly. "I wasn't caught, nor were I hurt by those guys, was I?"

Hearing Lin Yu's nonchalant tone, Nightless Sky Huo Le became even more dissatisfied.

"Now everyone knows you're my confidant, a suitor of Nightless Sky Fire Apricot, and the savior who saved my life at the Wanjin Heavenly Seat... You're no longer just an Otherworlder favored by my mother. We're now bound together—you don't need to get into any trouble; just being in danger or trouble is a slap in my face!"

Nightless Sky Huo Le spoke, she reached out to grab Lin Yu's neck again, but as soon as her hand touched Lin Yu's neck, she pursed her lips, frowned, and finally withdrew it.

She muttered under her breath, "Didn't you say we're bound together...? Then you should be more mindful of your own situation and safety, and stop causing me trouble."

"Even if you don't come, I have ways to solve this."

Lin Yu said softly.

"How are you going to resolve this? You're going to ask Saint Orchid Kui to help you get the Security Bureau to cancel the warrant?" Nightless Sky Huo Le said irritably. "Do you plan to attend Fire Apricot's coming-of-age ceremony as a wanted criminal?"

"Also... although when we arrived at Gray Street Three we found out that you weren't surrounded, but rather you fought off multiple people and won, those people confessed—you were taken away by the Fairy Queen's people!"

Nightless Sky Huo Le said coldly, "That girl is very strange. As far as I know, several families and Three Great Corporations that have been operating in Gray Street Three for a long time have investigated her, but no one knows her true identity... And because she has never done anything too outrageous, everyone has simply let her rule Gray Street Three."

"If she really intends to harm you, even I would find it difficult to handle."

Lin Yu curled his lip. "So that's why you arrested all the prominent figures in Gray Street Three to vent your anger?"

Hearing Lin Yu's question, Nightless Sky Huo Le pursed his lips. "It's not because of venting anger. I haven't had a good opportunity to get involved on the outskirts of the Outer City. I might as well take advantage of this legitimate reason to clean up all the influential figures and gangs in Gray Street Three. Once a new vacancy appears, it will be easier for me to support my people. That's why I simply brought Paris here."

"What a cold-blooded and astute political animal! He's becoming more and more like the Family Head of Royal Nobles," Lin Yu praised Nightless Sky Huo Le. "Keep it up, Nightless Sky Huo Le."

The Nightless Sky Huo Le did not respond to Lin Yu's praise, but continued to ask questions.

"Anyway, although you've returned safely... the Fairy Queen didn't do anything to you, did she?"

"I heard she wanted to talk to you. What did you talk about?"

Hearing the tone of Nightless Sky Huo Le, Lin Yu said, "It sounds like you know quite a bit about this Fairy Queen?"

"Although this person only controls Gray Street Three, she's actually quite well-known in the upper echelons of City That Never Sleeps," Nightless Sky Huo Le said Leng Jing. "The reason is what I mentioned before... nobody knows who she is."

"Can her unknown identity really make her famous?"

Lin Yu asked curiously.

Nightless Sky Huo Le sighed, "Outsiders only know that she's being investigated by several Noble and companies but hasn't exposed herself yet, but there are many different situations where someone hasn't exposed themselves."

"And she was the most terrifying kind—it's not that no one has ever come close to the 'Truth,' but without exception... they all disappeared."

"I suspect they're dead, but... there's no body, no trace, it's like a thread suddenly snapped—at some point, they were last seen on a Street in the City That Never Sleeps that wasn't covered by surveillance cameras, and then... they were never seen again."

Lin Yu nodded in understanding upon hearing Nightless Sky Huo Le.

He roughly knew where the bodies were, since he might have just seen them himself.

Moreover, he also roughly knew how these people had suddenly disappeared on the street.

Because manhole covers can eat people.

Nightless Sky Huo Le abruptly changed the subject. "So, I didn't ask you about the Fairy Queen's identity... Although you're a well-known 'Detective' and may have already found some Spider Silk, but... that girl is too strange. I advise you not to get too involved with her."

The prevailing view is that she must be a high-ranking individual from some other world.

Then, Nightless Sky Huo Le added, "I'm not talking about you Player, but things from Other Worlds."

Lin Yu nodded, then said, "Actually, I had a fairly pleasant conversation with her, and I already know her true identity."

The Nightless Sky Huo Le was quite surprised.

"You know who she is?"

"It's your sister."

Lin Yu said calmly.

Nightless Sky Huo Le immediately curled its lip. "Nonsense, if you can't see it, just say you can't. So even our great Detective can start talking nonsense to save face."

"You don't believe me?"

"The title of Fairy Queen appeared six years ago," Nightless Sky Huo Le sighed. "Back then, Fire Apricot was just little girl... You mean she, a little girl, single-handedly dominated the Outer City without any family support?"

"More importantly... Ever since Nightless Sky Fire Apricot City got lost in the Outer City, her mother has strictly restricted her from going out. She has to stay in her own courtyard all year round. Let alone leaving the Inner City, she rarely even leaves the Nightless Sky Family, and there are always people watching her. How could she possibly be able to frequently enter and Outer City?"

The car had just passed through the inner and outer checkpoints—although the cars belonging to the Nightless Sky Family had a privileged lane, they could still see the Vehicles slowly queuing in the heavily guarded and strictly inspected checkpoints.

"Nightless Sky Huo Le spoke again."

"That's absolutely impossible!"
