Chapter 178: Split, Split, Split: Clones
When Pei Xianjue received Feng Ling's call, her first reaction was flattered surprise!
Because Feng Ling had actually called her "Xiao Yu"!
Friendship between girls often began with intimate nicknames. She had told Feng Ling her nickname long ago, but Feng Ling usually still called her "Deputy Captain Pei," which had always troubled Pei Xianjue.
Yet today, right now, at this very moment, Feng Ling had called her "Xiao Yu."
"What is it, Xiao Ling?" Pei Xianjue carefully controlled her tone and asked gently.
Feng Ling, on the other end of the call, cringed at her syrupy voice and silently rubbed the goosebumps on her arm.
"Can you lend Baozi to me? I caught a Contaminant over here and need to get some clues out of her, but she's emotionally unstable and I need Baozi's help," Feng Ling said.
"Of course!" Pei Xianjue said. "Whenever you need him, I'll send Baozi over."
Feng Ling estimated the time in her head. "I'll probably be back in Qingjiang City in around ten hours. Have Baozi go to the Financial Center Building in Qingjiang City ten hours from now. We'll meet there."
Pei Xianjue froze on the other end of the line. She hadn't expected Feng Ling to need him so urgently.
"You're going back to Qingjiang City today? Is the Cleansing Operation over?" Pei Xianjue couldn't help asking. "I haven't received any notice that the operation has ended."
"There are still a few scraps of the Maze left over there, but it's not a big problem, so I came back early," Feng Ling replied.
Pei Xianjue grew anxious for her. "Contribution points are awarded after the Cleansing Operation ends. If you come back early, you'll get far fewer contribution points than the other Hunters!"
