My Pretty Campus Queen-Chapter 835 - 833: A Group of Kids

"Xiaoting, does your Black Alliance have a kindergarten?" Chen Tianlong was taken aback and asked.

"No, and besides, these kids look around ten years old, right? Were you in kindergarten at ten?" Lin Xiaoting rolled her eyes at Chen Tianlong.

Chen Tianlong chuckled bitterly and continued, "Then why recruit such young kids?"

"Oh, these are all orphans. The boss recruits them to train and nurture from a young age so that in the future, they not only have food and shelter, but they can also become members of our Black Alliance."

Lin Xiaoting continued to explain, "If we recruit youths from outside, we first have to investigate their backgrounds, recondition them, and their capabilities are much less by the time they’re grown up. Some skills, training from a young age yields better results."

"Wow, so that’s it! I didn’t expect Red-eyed Eagle to know this tactic, recruiting child soldiers." Chen Tianlong marveled silently. Kids have clearer backgrounds, saving the hassle of investigations, and their learning capacity is strong, reducing training troubles.

Chen Tianlong watched the dozens of children in front, his gaze suddenly fixed on a young man. This person looked about his age. Could he smoothly exit posing as him?

"Xiaoting, do these guys leave once they’re in?"

"Of course! He’s just an outsider communications officer tasked with recruiting these orphans from around the world. He returns after reporting numbers and details, usually in about two hours," Lin Xiaoting informed Chen Tianlong.

In fact, she was dismissed, but her influence in Black Alliance wasn’t because she was the boss’s assistant; it was because she was Red-eyed Eagle’s close friend.

Now without any position, the leaders and subordinates still treated her with respect. Lin Xiaoting enjoyed food and drink there, and wasn’t in a hurry to return with Chen Tianlong.

Most importantly, she stayed in Black Alliance for a more crucial mission.

"Hehe, I’ve got an idea," Chen Tianlong chuckled.

"Have you heard of the Disguise Skill?" Chen Tianlong continued.

"Oh? You know how?"

"That’s right!"

Chen Tianlong said proudly. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"Chen Tianlong, honestly, who is your master?" Lin Xiaoting seemed to confirm something.

"Well, I have many masters. Which one are you asking about?" Chen Tianlong said casually.

"..."

Hearing this, Lin Xiaoting was speechless. Many masters? Pulling my leg?

"So, tell me, the master that taught you the Disguise Skill, what’s their name?"

"Oh come on, are you eyeing my master? I tell you, my master is quite old. I know everything he knows; I’m just not as powerful, so no need to consider him," Chen Tianlong replied.

"..."

Lin Xiaoting was at a loss for words, but soon she thought for a moment and said, "Chen Tianlong, be serious. Is his surname Fang?"

"Oh? How did you know?" Chen Tianlong was startled, becoming a bit wary. No matter if it’s Fang Zun or Fang Yan, they were his benefactors, so he couldn’t randomly speak about them to avoid causing trouble.

"Alright, I’ve finished asking," Lin Xiaoting was mostly sure, but Chen Tianlong was bewildered, left hanging by Lin Xiaoting as she stopped talking.

"Hey hey hey, you can’t leave it like that! You need to explain what’s going on?" Chen Tianlong pursued for answers.

"The secret cannot be disclosed, but I can assure you, we’ll definitely meet again." With that, Lin Xiaoting smiled slightly and turned to walk back.

After a moment of bitter laughter, Chen Tianlong also didn’t ask much and followed Lin Xiaoting forward.

Of course, the two didn’t return to the room but sat at a quieter place, chatting away, and before they knew it, an hour and a half had passed.

"Chen Tianlong, he’s about to come out. I suggest you start your move. As far as I know, he’s weak, about a Yellow Dao three-star level. You can handle him easily, but be quick so as not to be seen," Lin Xiaoting instructed.

"No worries." When it came to tasks, Chen Tianlong was the swiftest, beyond doubt.

In no time, Chen Tianlong had caught up with the young man. As an assassin, Chen Tianlong was adept at tailing someone. Clearly, the young man wasn’t aware of being followed by Chen Tianlong. Not a surprise, who would believe someone would dare to be so audacious within Black Alliance’s territory?

"Hey, brother, could you show me the way!" Chen Tianlong walked out flamboyantly, unhurriedly heading towards the young man.

As such, the young man turned, seeing this person so calm, he felt no caution, ready to speak with a smile.

But in that instant, Chen Tianlong flashed past, arriving before him like lightning. The young man only felt a pain at the nape, then darkness, and lost consciousness.

Chen Tianlong didn’t waste time, dragging the person to a concealed spot, where Lin Xiaoting was already waiting. Chen Tianlong’s Disguise Skill had modest requirements, needing only a needle.

Lin Xiaoting seized the opportunity to fetch some embroidery needles, as silver needles were unavailable. Seeing this, Chen Tianlong chuckled, though this time, bluffing would suffice.

Twenty minutes or so, Chen Tianlong mimicked the other’s appearance, applying needles to himself. Although lacking the materials, the Disguise Skill couldn’t be at its peak, it was still passable.

"Chen Tianlong, it does resemble somewhat, but the face seems a bit plumper," Lin Xiaoting said in astonishment upon seeing Chen Tianlong’s disguise, almost failing to recognize him.

"Hehe, it’s alright. That guy’s face was too thin and pointed. I had to disguise like him, hence my face got a bit distorted," Chen Tianlong chuckled bitterly, his most unsuccessful disguise yet.

But upon reflection, those guarding the city probably never paid attention to this guy’s exact appearance. As long as the clothing matched, it should allow a pass.

"Alright, Xiaoting, I’m ready to go back. You... take care!" Chen Tianlong was about to leave, feeling a bit reluctant.

"Hmm, take care!"

At this moment, despite having much to say, Lin Xiaoting didn’t know where to start. If he really was Fang Zun’s disciple, they were bound to meet again. The task given by her master was nearing ten years, it couldn’t be abandoned halfway.

"Will you miss me?" Chen Tianlong suddenly asked.

"I..."

"But I think I’ll miss you."

Before Lin Xiaoting could continue, Chen Tianlong interjected, then stepped forward, embracing Lin Xiaoting tightly, saying, "Thank you, Xiaoting, I’m really touched. Remember to take care, if we meet again, if you still feel deeply for me, I swear... I’ll take care of you."

Having said that, Chen Tianlong released her and turned to leave.

"Chen Tianlong..."

Upon hearing this, apart from calling out his name, Lin Xiaoting didn’t know what to say. Her heart was already tumultuous, stirring up a storm.
