A Girl Named Lin Falls from the Sky / Food and Drink Before the Great Battle

"There aren't many Zalak people in the Great Yan, and her temperament is unique, somewhat similar to that of the Rat King."

"And you never make baseless accusations, so I suspect she must have some connection with that Rat King."

Scout finished speaking and gave Suika a thumbs up.

"That's right, she is the Rat King's daughter."

Since we're not the only ones implicated in this matter, the Rat King will definitely retaliate.

"Then the grievances will be settled, and the debts will be settled. Anyone who dares to mess with us will have their head chopped off and drunk as a snack."

"Okay, let's go together then..."

After thinking it over, Scout decided to participate, mainly to see if the person behind the scenes only wanted to deal with him and Suika or if they had designs on Rhodes Island.

"I'll leave this to you. I'll go and gather some information first." Pointing to Misha and Alex, who were sitting properly in the room, Suika indicated that she was also a local and decided to go and gather information on her own.

"Then be careful in everything!" Scout nodded in agreement with Suika's suggestion.

Chapter 383 A Lin Daiyu Fell From the Sky

After leaving the villa area, Suika thought for a moment and decided to go back to the place where the battle had just taken place.

There aren't many things related to Lungmen that are also hostile to them.

Plus, having just returned from Ursus, even fewer people know about it.

Therefore, Suika believed that the person who targeted her must be someone she knew.

So, those who are related to me, and not even good to me... are very likely those who chased after me when I left last time.

After all, it's impossible for them not to have a grudge against each other after he wiped out a whole group of people outside the city.

The only strange thing is how the other side managed to gather so many people in such a short time.

The key issue is that it's all happening right under the noses of Wei Yenwu and Lin Ge Rui.

After thinking it over for a moment, Suika decided to go to the place where the battle had just taken place to see if there were any clues.

Before she could even enter the slums after arriving here, Hoshiguma grabbed her.

Why are you here again?

"The thought of almost being ambushed makes me feel terrible."

I won't be able to eat or sleep until I find the mastermind behind this and punch him in the stomach.

So I came to see if there were any clues.

Suika declared that she wasn't a good person, and since someone was trying to mess with her, she had to have a serious talk with them.

At the very least, we need to teach those guys the lesson that people die when they're killed, and let them know that they're not the same people they used to be, and that they're not to be trifled with.

Otherwise, no one could stand being hit like this every few days.

"This area is under lockdown and martial law. No one except the Guard Department can get in. Leave the investigation to us, okay? You just go back and wait. I'll let you know as soon as we find the mastermind."

Hoshiguma had to admit that Suika had changed a lot in the past year.

A year ago, she wouldn't have acted this way, immediately retaliating after being tricked.

Of course, she didn't dislike it. After all, when Suika traveled around the world alone, if she wasn't assertive, with her ability to create food out of thin air, no country wouldn't covet her.

However, Suika transform from a well-behaved sweetheart into a "bad girl" who's now on the front lines of fights still makes Hoshiguma feel a bit of the unpredictability of life.

"Tsk, can't there be an exception?"

Suika, looked towards the direction of the slums.

"You're not good at investigative work. Rather than going and finding no clues and ruining the scene yourself, it's better to leave it to our professionals. At least if there are any relevant clues here, our people will likely be able to find them."

Hoshiguma gave Suika the forehead.

"Okay... but don't forget..."

After thinking about it, Suika felt that Hoshiguma made a good point.

Lacking both Sherlock Holmes's detective abilities and professional investigative skills, he was completely clueless once inside.

"Then I'll go explore other places!" Although she couldn't go inside, Suika didn't intend to go back just like that.

She considered it for a moment and concluded that since the other party had made such a big fuss targeting her, they would definitely not stop after just one failure.

In the absence of any clues, you yourself become the best clue and bait.

That's right, she planned to use her body as bait to lure out those who coveted her.

With that in mind, she bid farewell to Hoshiguma and headed towards the outskirts of Lungmen City.

Although it's called the suburbs, it's actually an agricultural module within Lungmen.

This is an area present in almost all Mobile City.

Although it may seem wasteful to develop agricultural areas in Mobile City where land is extremely valuable, these agricultural areas serve as the Mobile City's lifeline when it encounters danger or loses supplies.

Even in Lungmen, a city primarily focused on commerce, there is such an area.

After saying goodbye to Hoshiguma, Suika deliberately strolled along the main road and wandered over here.

Sitting on a ridge in a paddy field, Suika rubbed her hair.

"Did we not bait the area? Or was the hook too straight?"

The clones she placed along the way told her that no one had fallen for the trick.

Just as she was filled with regret, she saw a familiar figure appear at the edge of the field.

"Go to this location, someone will be there to meet you..."

The man walked up to Suika, handed Suika a note with an address written on it, and then turned and walked outside.

"Hey, couldn't you Black Mantle just send a text message? You should know my phone number, right? Why?"

"Do we really have to use such a primitive method?"

Suika watched the departing figure in the Black Mantle and waved the note in her hand.

Upon hearing Suika's words, Black Mantle almost slipped, but fortunately, his strong skills allowed him to quickly regain his balance and then disappear into the field.

Watching the other person's retreating figure without turning back, Suika looked down at the address in her hand.

"Wei Yenwu has found out. That makes sense now. It's unacceptable for the Governor of Lungmen to let others cause trouble on his own territory."

After standing up, Suika hurried towards the address.

"It's you!" Upon arriving at her destination and opening the door to see who was inside, Suika was initially startled, but then realized that if Wei Yenwu and Lin Ge Rui had joined forces, it wouldn't be surprising at all that they sent her.

"Miss Suika, I didn't expect to meet you again." Lin Yuhsia didn't expect her father to assign her such a task, and her teammate would be Suika, someone she had met once before.

"Since you've summoned me here, you must have already identified the person behind this. Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

If it were Chen or Swire, Suika would have been more polite, but in front of her was the next generation of Lungmen underworld leader, on whom Wei Yenwu and the Rat King had placed their hopes.

Suika felt that communicating directly with the other person might be more effective in building a closer relationship.

Hearing Suika's words, Lin Yuhsia nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

"Governor Wei and his father are purging the participants in the city."

Some of them are unable to do it themselves, so I hope you can..."

Lin Yuhsia raised her hand and made a throat-cutting gesture next to her fair neck.

"Of course, I was furious about being beaten up for no reason..."

You lead the way, I'll do the work. I can reserve whatever kind of gruesome deaths they'll suffer!

Suika declared she would stop pretending and that she was indeed the legendary Double Flower Red Stick.

Lin Yuhsia raised her hand and looked at the time on her watch.

"No rush. Governor Wei's intelligence indicates they will leave before the dock locks close tonight."

There are still several hours until then. Do you need to prepare anything, or call your teammates?

After hearing this, Suika thought of Scout and contacted him in front of Lin Yuhsia.

After hearing Suika's words, Scout surprisingly did not choose to come.

He stated that he would remain at the villa to protect Misha and Alex.

"With your skills, those guys wouldn't have a chance to escape. I wouldn't get any kills anyway, so I might as well get some rest."

By the way, could you help me check if the people behind this will get involved with Rhodes Island later because of us?

Chapter 384 Eating and Drinking Before the Great Battle

"I'm all set, I'm all alone now!"

Suika looked at Lin Yuhsia not far away.

Lin Yuhsia nodded. Although Suika's communication device was right in front of her, she wouldn't speak first until the other party confirmed.

Otherwise, what if she calls a second time after the first call doesn't come?

"So what medicine have you prepared for next? We still have plenty of time."

Lin Yuhsia crossed her arms and spoke calmly.

"How about... we grab some food first?"

Suika stroked her chin and thought for a long time before finally saying something that almost made Lin Yuhsia's back hurt.

Although it seems illogical, Suika says it's quite normal.

It was only afternoon, and she hadn't eaten anything since she woke up.

After relaxing for a moment, I immediately felt my stomach rumbling.

"Let's go, I know a shop nearby that has pretty good food."

As if hearing Suika's stomach growl, Lin Yuhsia beckoned and then walked outside.

Half an hour later

Lin Yuhsia stared with dead fish eyes at the girl in front of her, who looked like a combination of a starving ghost and a drunkard reincarnated.

First of all, she couldn't understand how people could bury their heads in their rice bowls to eat.

Secondly, she couldn't understand how the person in front of her could manage to eat a bite of food and drink a sip of wine.

The key was the way she drank like it was water, and the fact that an entire vat of wine had disappeared beside her. Not to mention her, even the shop owner not far away was doubting his eyes.

After all, this jar is almost big enough to fit Suika entirely inside.

In other words, she drank almost her own weight in alcohol during that half hour...

But her belly didn't move at all.

No, there was a slight fluctuation, it looks like he probably ate too much.

What about the wine?

Where did the wine go?!

"Hiccup~ Sorry, it's rare for someone to treat me, so I indulged a little."

Suika patted her stomach and slumped into a chair.

"There's no need to be so indulgent," Lin Yuhsia said irritably.

"That won't do. We need to replenish our supplies before the big battle... If this ghost doesn't eat its fill and ends up starving outside, people will see it and think, 'Oh, it's a starving ghost!' That would be a huge loss."

Suika retorted earnestly.

How about we go to the park next door to digest our food?

Seeing Suika looking so energetic, Lin Yuhsia felt both sorry for the cost of that vat of wine and somewhat surprised.

The owner said that a vat of wine would normally take a week or even longer to sell.

But Suika drank it all right in front of her, and surprisingly, she only seemed slightly tipsy.

"Alright! This drink was really good today..."

"It feels like it's been a long time since I've had such a satisfying drink."

Suika counted on her fingers. Since Yuugi Hoshiguma went back, there was no one to drink with anymore. Plus, Hoshiguma had been fighting every day and told her to drink less, so she hadn't been a drunkard at all these days.
