Chapter 220 My sister’s worry
In the quiet living room,
Bai Yuze turned to look at Erkani, and asked in confusion, "Oh. I wonder what kind of powerful person Mr. Erkani is talking about?"
"It's simple. A true strong person should be able to control their own destiny," Erkani said calmly. Perhaps Bai Yuze's previous answer had dampened his enthusiasm, for his words were much more subdued. "I wonder, Mr. Bai, are you willing to take control of your own destiny?"
"How so?"
"There are four monsters here. I gave them the corresponding amount of food, but they don't seem to have any basic cooperation skills. Mr. Bai, aren't you a teacher? It should be easy for you to teach them to divide the food equally among themselves."
As he spoke, Erkani took out a bunch of gleaming keys from his pocket and handed them to Bai Yuze.
He was smiling very happily.
Bai Yuze looked at his kind face,
He was also laughing very happily.
Erkani looked at Bai Yuze, and Bai Yuze looked at Erkani; their eyes met at that moment.
"Since Mr. Kani wants to see it, I naturally have no problem with it. Educating and teaching is the duty of a teacher." Bai Yuze chuckled as he took the key from Erkani's hand and walked without hesitation toward the cage in the middle that held the two abyssal insect demons.
After the two abyssal insect demons finished eating the flesh and blood of their own kind, they were in a standoff. However, the sudden appearance of the insect resembling Bai Yuzhe caused them to unite again, deciding to eat the insect first.
Before Bai Yuze even got close to the cage, the strong smell of blood and the stench of rotting corpses filled his nostrils.
He also got a general idea of what the four human bodies looked like.
They were young, but their hair was dyed in various colors, making them look like bad people.
Bai Yuze turned around and, to Erkani's astonishment, reached out and grasped the bars of the cage.
A chill ran through his palms to his limbs; it was hard and cold, and Bai Yuzhe was certain that it was just ordinary metal.
The two abyssal insect demons stared intently at Bai Yuze with their eerie green eyes.
Its ferocious body began to approach the cage.
Bai Yuzhe looked at it for a while and was somewhat disappointed. He had originally thought that some special black technology had been developed inside this cage.
Take out the key,
Just as he was about to open the door.
"Mr. Bai, are you really not going to reconsider?"
A warm voice came from behind him, seemingly genuinely concerned for his safety.
However, all that answered him was silence and the sound of a key being inserted into the keyhole to unlock the door.
Click—the lock was opened.
Bai Yuzhe pulled open the iron gate that resembled a door, and the two burly and ferocious abyssal insect demons rushed up at that moment.
boom!
Boom! Boom!
Three bolts of lightning, glowing purple, struck the two abyssal insect demons right in front of Bai Yuze, emitting terrifying screams of extreme pain.
They cleaved their sturdy shells in two, and gushing, foul-smelling green blood splattered everywhere.
If this corrosive blood splashes onto the skin, disfigurement is the least of the problems; in severe cases, death on the spot is also possible.
Bai Yuze, who had just opened the cage, was closest to the Abyss Insect Demon. He was the first to be hit by the terrifying hissing, corrosive sounds. A magical girl stood before him, activating a deep blue shield that kept the blood outside. A few wisps of fragrant breeze brushed past Bai Yuze's nose, mingling with a faint floral scent, creating a refreshing contrast against the stench of decay in the cage.
clap clap clap!
Erkani's clapping echoed crisply in the living room: "Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!"
"Mr. Bai's courage really surprised me. No wonder he has a sister who is a righteous magical girl. Like sister, like brother."
"So you lured my sister away tonight just so I could see how you abuse your pet?" Bai Yuze turned his head, not looking at the magical girl behind him, but at Ercani.
"Of course not, I just wanted to invite Mr. Bai over as a guest. You are free to leave whenever you wish."
Erkani shook his head and clapped his hands. The young waiter who had asked Bai Yuzhe if he needed to use the restroom earlier came over with a box of gold and some gold and silver jewelry.
Under the dim light, the gold nuggets and jewelry shone with a captivating brilliance.
"This is our apology gift for disturbing Mr. Bai so late at night. Please accept it."
Bai Yuzhe glanced at the luster of the gold nuggets and clicked his tongue. He had never seen gold nuggets stacked so neatly before.
While Bai Yuze was examining the gold nuggets, Erkani was also observing him.
"No need. These things are only for my eyes, not for me to touch. I'd rather trouble Mr. Ercani to take me back, otherwise my sister might worry."
Bai Yuze shook his head and looked at the magical girl behind Erkani.
The other person was draped in a gray robe. She was a white-haired, red-eyed girl, a rare sight indeed; at least, he had never seen her like this in any of the Arbitrators' meetings. Through a corner of the gray robe that was exposed, he could see her long legs clad in white stockings, her graceful figure, her smooth skin, and her barely visible breasts.
If it appeared on the battlefield fighting against the abyssal beasts, Bai Yuze wouldn't be too surprised, but its appearance here made him a little curious.
Bai Yuze's scrutinizing gaze at the girl beside him did not escape Kani's notice. He slightly raised the corners of his mouth and looked at the young waiter beside him, "Jia Yi, take Mr. Bai back."
"Yes, sir."
Jia Yi bowed slightly and led Bai Yuzhe away from the basement.
Not long after Bai Yuze left...
Erkani returned to the hotel upstairs, tasted the red wine on the table, and frowned slightly, seemingly somewhat dissatisfied: "The wine in Yeqiu City is not as good as that in Ninomiya City."
Behind him,
A tall, burly figure appeared out of nowhere, scratching his head: "Doctor, you just let him go like that?"
"They were invited as guests, so there's no question of letting them go." Erkani looked at the huge high-definition screen in the center of the room, where Bai Yuze had already boarded a Class A business car and was heading back.
"Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake. Since we've come to someone else's territory, we naturally have to have a proper meeting with the host."
"But isn't the local bully that brat named Ye Qing? I heard that the villainous witch's entire inheritance was taken over by that kid."
"Cing San asked with some doubt, "Him?" Erkani chuckled a few times, "He's just a pawn in the game, the real local tyrant of Yeqiu City, who's not even on the chessboard."
"That teacher wasn't that great, he just had a magical girl sister."
"No, he also has an older sister, who is the real local tyrant in Yeqiu City." Erkani shook his head with a smile. "I was a little unsure before, but now I'm more certain. This Bai Yuzhe's identity is probably not simple either."
"elder sister?"
Bing San hesitated for a moment. The information he had gathered this time only revealed that the other party had a younger sister, that their adoptive parents had passed away a few years ago, and that a student and his childhood sweetheart were currently hospitalized at the Yeqiu City Comprehensive District Hospital.
Faced with his subordinate's questions, Dr. Ercani clearly had no intention of explaining. He moved on to the next question: "By the way, Bing San, how did you find that abyssal creature that infiltrated last time?"
"It's certain that he was parasitized on Moon Mountain last time, but I don't know when he was parasitized by the Abyss Simulator." Bing San lowered his head. "I hope you can give me a little more time. I will definitely be able to find out."
"Alright, that monster's dead. How are you going to investigate now? I hope this doesn't happen again, understand?"
Erkani waved his hand, not taking the matter too seriously.
Abyssal creatures are just like cockroaches; given the slightest opportunity, they'll eagerly burrow into homes to build nests, which is utterly disgusting.
"clear."
Bing San respectfully lowered his head. Don't be fooled by the fact that the doctor doesn't seem arrogant when he speaks; if you really make him angry, it's a truly miserable experience.
"Go downstairs. Keep things quiet for now. While you're at it, find some fresh blood to replenish Group C. You could also let a few spies in; they might come in handy later."
"clear."
As night fell, neon lights dotted the city skyline like stars, casting a soft halo on Bai Yuze's face.
He sat in the back seat, his gaze passing through the window to the bustling world illuminated by the city lights. The young waiter was driving in the front, or rather, he was the driver.
Bai Yuzhe wasn't sure about the other party's strength yet, but the driver was definitely a professional. The atmosphere inside the car was quiet and peaceful throughout the journey, with soft music flowing in the air, a stark contrast to the noise outside the window.
"Aren't you afraid I'll tell the magical girl where you are?" Bai Yuze said slowly, gazing out the window.
"That's naturally your prerogative." Jia Yi's voice was very calm, and no emotion could be detected in his words.
"Okay, I'll tell my sister when I get back."
A1: "...
A gentle breeze blew through the half-open car window, lightly caressing Bai Yuze's cheek, and the car fell silent once more.
The reason Bai Yuze didn't directly fight the other party tonight wasn't because of the magical girl he'd never seen before, nor because he was likely to get ganged up on in the other party's hometown, but simply because of the doctor, Ercani, who had moved to Yeqiu City.
He couldn't see through the other person.
Ercani wasn't like that white-haired, red-eyed magical girl with explosive magical power, nor was he like the man in front of him, who was emanating a dense abyssal nitrogen. He simply couldn't see anything special about the other person; from head to toe, he was completely like an ordinary person.
In the words of Da Shi, "Where evil enters a house, there must be ghosts."
The words may be rough, but the principle is sound.
Putting aside Ercani, just considering that magical girl and this A-rank character alone, Violet might not be able to defeat them with her strength.
If he were to use the identity of the Phantom Butterfly, he had not forgotten the scene at the Twilight Apostle's lair last time.
He hasn't done anything yet.
That damned Kikyo mage is already charging over.
If we're talking about why the security situation in Yeqiu City has deteriorated, Kikyo, the magician, should bear at least half the responsibility.
He's not a bad person.
He's also doing good and eliminating evil.
on the other hand,
This newly emerging evil force seems to have a rather strong ability to counter the abyssal creatures. The abyssal simulators that just infiltrated disappeared as soon as their abyssal signals connected to the abyssal network.
I don't know what kind of advanced technology they used to detect the Abyss Beasts.
Ye Qiu City is about to be in turmoil again!
When Bai Yuze walked into his residential compound, he found that the lights were off again, and he didn't know how to complain.
Stepping into the stairwell,
A gentle night breeze blew, and moonlight, like water, spilled into the corridor, adding to the tranquility and mystery.
Bai Yuzhe had just stepped into his home and was about to turn on the lights when he noticed a flash of green light outside the balcony.
A pale green light rushed in at lightning speed, the faint green glow emanating from her body dazzlingly bright in the pitch-black hall.
She landed lightly in the center of the living room, her pale green magic dress swaying gently in the wind, as if blending into the night.
When she saw her brother standing in the middle of the living room, the question that had been bothering her instantly escaped her lips: "Huh... Brother, weren't you missing?"
As soon as Bai Youqing uttered those words, she realized she might have let something slip and quickly covered her mouth, a blush spreading across her cheeks.
Sometimes, you never know whether a surprise or an accident will come first.
His sister's words also made Bai Yuze stop in his tracks.
His eyes met his sister's, and the two looked at each other, an indescribable awkwardness and sigh filling the air.
"So you're Xiaoqing?"
"Um."
Bai Youqing was no longer the heroic magical girl fighting against the abyssal monsters; she was more like a child who had made a mistake, bowing her head and nodding.
"So, you went out tonight to carry out a mission?" Bai Yuze silently poured himself a glass of water. They had talked for so long tonight, and the other party hadn't even offered him a cup of tea. What a load of rubbish about being a guest.
"Um."
"So the reason you don't want to attend extra classes on weekends and during summer vacation is so you'll have time to become a magical girl and fight those terrifying monsters?"
"Um."
Faced with his brother's machine-gun-like barrage of questions...
Bai Youqing's head was lowered as low as it could go; she could even see her toes digging into the floor.
"Are you hurt?"
"Um...no, no, no!" Bai Youqing nodded subconsciously, but quickly realized what she meant and hurriedly shook her head. "My magical girl seniors have taken good care of me, especially Violet-senpai and Kikyo-neechan."
"Um?!"
Bai Yuzhe looked up at his younger sister, his face full of surprise and doubt: "Sister Kikyo?"
No, Kikyo the Magician has only been here a short time, and you're already calling her "older sister" so affectionately.
"Sister Kikyo is the captain of our Judgment Team. She's very beautiful and gentle. She's very kind to me. Of course, the vice-captain, Senior Violet, and the other companions are also very nice to me!" Noticing her brother's confusion, Bai Youqing explained understandingly.
"Then why did you suddenly come back?"
"When we were having barbecue today, a calamity suddenly occurred, right? I went out tonight to resolve it."
But... Peng Liang suddenly texted me saying he couldn't reach me on my phone, so I immediately flew back.
As she spoke, Bai Youqing's tone hardened:
"I also want to ask you, brother! Why didn't you answer the phone last night? Don't you know how worried I was about you? I didn't even feel like carrying out my mission."
