Chapter 127): Get In, We’re Leaving!
Lu Yibei had long wanted to get in touch with Gu Qianqian.
Having met Gu Qianqian twice in a row in a place haunted by urban legends, Lu Yibei felt that she was definitely not an ordinary person.
Plus, she has never heard of a Gu Qianqian being mentioned in the Night Division. She felt that she must be some kind of enigmatic exorcist, or
Or somebody who was like her.
If she could establish a good relationship with her, she wouldnt need to rely on cunning goddesses or the Night Division for information anymore.
Jumeng mentioned that some magical materials were required to become stronger, but as of now, Yibei had no way of obtaining these items, especially not from the Night Division.
But if Gu Qianqian had these materials, considering her strength, wouldnt it be great to be friends with her?
Lu Yibei is currently a college student recently plagued by the burden of essays, a part-time worker for the Night Division, a wanted criminal for the Night Division, a supposed World Ender enslaving a girl to be her servant, and somebody suspicious of Operator No. 2, Li Xuan.
Despite her several identities, Gu Qianqian seemed to evade her, and she wondered if she was just a figment of her own imagination.
Wait up! she shouted while chasing after Gu Qianqian, feeling that she was unable to catch up to her.
Damn, shes good at running.
Gu Qianqian, hurry! The system blared in her ears, urging her to run faster.
The system couldnt believe that Lu Yibei would appear right in front of them; it means that the Witch doesnt care about being found out by the Night Division anymore.
According to the systems estimation, she should have been beaten up by Jumangs successor by now, and she would not appear on campus, but
This could only mean that Jumangs successor has fallen and is under that Witchs control!
Although Jumangs powers have little to do with acquiring world-ending abilities, the vast psychic energy absorbed from a god is enough to make the Witch strong enough to bring destruction to the world.
And if shes strong enough to no longer fear the Night Division
System?
Mistress, we have to run.
I thought you said she wasnt that scary, though. We could always fight her, so why are we running?
The situation is a bit different now. This is a tactical retreat.
I feel like weve always been retreating, though.
How about we surrender to her? she asked. She doesnt look or feel scary. Maybe she just wants to talk.
Gu Qianqian! the system suddenly shouted in Gu Qianqians mind upon hearing her words. You are the protagonist! Are you really willing to stoop so low to talk to a Witch?
Yes! Gu Qianqian retorted. Why dont you want to? Wouldnt it be great to battle it out with somebody stronger than me? Even if I am the protagonist, doesnt she still need to face some adversaries?
The system was at a loss for words. This girl is too far gone.
Gu Qianqian was so anxious that she was about to cry, but seeing that this supposed World Ender was speaking up for her, she hurriedly grabbed her tiny hand and nodded vigorously.
Y-yes! You hit me first!
You! This is obviously her car! The man bellowed. She hit me! I see it nowyoure trying to blackmail me, and both of you are in it together!
This is her car, according to your words, Yibei said.
Yes, thats right!
I see, she thoughtfully nodded as she turned to Gu Qianqian. Do you mind lending me your car for a bit?
A-ah? O-okay.
Yibei wordlessly entered the drivers seat under the anticipating eyes of the crowd, and turning the engine on, she was delighted to find that it was still usable.
In the next moment, she pulled the window down and drove towards Gu Qianqian, whispering in her ear, Get in the car; lets get out of here!
It wasnt until they were far away that the man realised what had happened.
H-hey! They stole my car! Somebody stop them!
I thought you said that was her car.
A few minutes later, at the police station.
Lu Yibei and Gu Qianqian were taken to the police station for questioning. The car was heavily damaged, so it wasnt a surprise that anyone jogging could catch up to them.
In the interrogation room, Gu Qianqian sat opposite a police officer.
Name?
Gu Qianxi.
Age?
Nineteen.
Place of residence?
Under a bridgethe third bridge by the bank of the river.
Young woman, we know what happened, the policeman sighed. That guy who hit you with a car is a known con artist, so dont be afraid and tell us the truth.
But Gu Qianqian hesitated, wondering if she had to specifically tell them that she lives in a tiny hut under the bridge.
She was in a daze, and thankfully, a police officer came in.
Let her go. Her family is here to take her.
Hearing this, Gu Qianqians expression changed.
I thought my family was dead
