Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 1069 - 1065: No Wonder I’m Me

The woman at the front desk feared that this hard-earned guest might sense something off and run away.

She quickly came out from the front desk, eagerly trying to hold Yun Ran’s hand.

But Yun Ran’s eyes had just witnessed this woman wiping suspicious marks from the corner of her mouth.

Looking at the hand reaching out to her, Yun Ran, who wasn’t particularly fastidious, was nonetheless a bit speechless.

She stepped back and retrieved some money from her body.

"Book me the best room possible, one that overlooks the street outside; I like the bustle!"

The woman was about to grab Yun Ran’s hand, but upon seeing the money, she deftly changed course and caught the cash.

Generally, those who request the best rooms prefer the quiet ones facing the backyard...

However, though this guest’s request was a bit odd,

as long as enough money was given, the woman did not care about the guest’s quirks.

"No problem, I’ll make sure you get the best room!"

Yun Ran followed the woman to the third floor, to a room that offered a panoramic view of Zhou Family’s alley, perfectly meeting Yun Ran’s requirements.

"Alright, I need to rest now. Unless necessary, do not disturb me!"

After speaking, Yun Ran gave the woman some more money.

Regardless of the era, human nature remains unchanged.

With money, you can make the devil work; as long as enough money is provided, no matter the request, the other party will be willing to comply.

Indeed, seeing Yun Ran hand over more money, the woman’s eyes curved with a smile.

"Rest assured, guest, I will not disturb you, nor will I let others disturb you."

After dismissing the woman, Yun Ran closed the room door.

Looking at the room, evidently a bit aged, she wasn’t picky about it; it’s much better than those wild places.

This pricey room even came with a bathroom and hot water supply, which was quite convenient.

Yun Ran took a quick shower and prepared to rest for a while.

It seemed like there would be big action tonight, so she had to be well-rested.

Just as she lay down on the bed, Yun Ran fell asleep instantly.

Naturally, she didn’t notice a glimmer of light suddenly flashing across her bag placed by the bed.

When Yun Ran woke up, the sky outside had turned completely dark.

"Master, you’re awake~"

As Yun Ran just opened her eyes, the little paperman already handed a teacup to Yun Ran.

"Have you figured out what’s happening here so quickly?"

While speaking, Yun Ran reached out to accept the teacup from the little paperman, and the water was at just the right temperature.

Perfect for someone who just woke up.

The little paperman naturally took the emptied cup from Yun Ran and put it aside.

Then reported to Yun Ran: "Master, this city is much more prosperous than the remote town we stayed at previously.

There are many Dark Masters here, but they’re divided into territories according to the northwest, north-east, and south regions.

Generally, they don’t handle tasks across territories.

This has led to some regions having weaker Dark Master forces, and consequently, the other forces in that area are relatively weaker.

The Zhou Family we heard of is located at the junction of East City and North City.

Unless there’s a lucrative job, those Dark Masters usually won’t intervene!"

The little paperman was evidently a bit disgruntled by the final sentence.

The Dark Masters here have thoroughly treated the dispelling of Evil Spirits as a business; without benefits, they firmly refuse to act.

No wonder those in the tavern said the people in this alley were raising money.

It seems that this sum isn’t small.

"Master, I don’t like the Dark Masters here!"

Yun Ran reached out to comfort the little paperman: "It’s alright; isn’t your master still here?"

Xuan Sect people seeking resources and wealth is understandable.

However, if it’s solely for profit, they’d likely be stuck at this level, unable to advance further.

The little paperman was quite angry initially, but upon hearing his master’s reassurance, he immediately chuckled: "I knew master is the best~"

"What time is it now?"

Since her phone was crushed into powder by the spatial rift, Yun Ran’s concept of time had only a vague estimate.

The little paperman glanced at the sky outside, then reached out to grab the air.

Then he said: "Master, the time should be around eleven-thirty at night."

Yun Ran quickly dressed, again donning her black robe.

Since she had decided to pin everything on the Black Robed People, she had to play the role diligently.

"Based on what those people said earlier, around twelve o’clock at night is when the noises are most rampant; it’s perfect for us to go and set up an ambush!"

Wearing the black robe, Yun Ran opened the balcony door, instantly blending into the night.

The third-floor’s height might be dangerous for others.

But for Yun Ran, it was no different than a small mound.

Yun Ran effortlessly jumped down from the third floor without alerting anyone.

Using the night’s cover, she quickly reached the Zhou Family Mansion.

The journey was smooth, fortunately having understood the layout in advance.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to appear here as quiet as a ghost.

Upon entering the alley, the rumored crying noises began.

Admittedly, at this late hour, the sound was truly eerie; it could indeed scare someone timid to death.

Yun Ran glanced at the little paperman: "Go and investigate the surrounding households to see if there’s any discovery.

Additionally, check the range of this crying sound and its impact on nearby people."

The little paperman nodded, disappearing in an instant.

In such a night, with no light pollution from so-called big cities, the fully blackened little paperman was perfectly hidden.

Yun Ran hadn’t intended to enter through the Zhou Family’s front door.

She took out her divination tools, shook them twice, and quickly calculated which area of the Zhou Family Mansion had the worst financial leakage.

If she calculated her actions tonight, the effect wouldn’t be as straightforward as calculating for the Zhou Family Mansion.

Soon, she figured out the position with the worst financial leakage; while it had severe leakage, it also signified that within the Zhou Family Mansion, this spot’s fortune was the weakest.

No matter what trouble lies within the mansion, the impact on this spot would be minimal.

Yun Ran couldn’t help but praise her own cleverness.

"No wonder I’m the Young Master of Qingfeng Temple~"
