The Ice King's Little Trouble Maker-Chapter 582 - 546 Fight

Lu Mengyi looked at her and after a while said, "That man...seems to be looking for someone among us."

Gu Yanjing looked at her.

Qiao Yuxian looked at her, paused, and her eyes gently moved as she said, "Looking for who?"

Lu Mengyi shook her head and said, "Not sure, but the person he’s looking for shouldn’t have gone to the port. When he found out the person wasn’t there, he left directly."

Everyone fell silent for a while.

It seems Gu Yao came to Jin City and after meeting someone, they agreed to have Chen Xi send a message to her, luring them to the port.

Gu Yao escaped through another route, and the others went to the port to find someone.

But they didn’t expect.

Gu Yanjing and Qiao Yuxian went to chase after Gu Yao.

And the people who went to the port, didn’t find the person they were looking for.

But who were they looking for?

Qiao Yuxian rubbed her fingertips.

Chen Xi was the one who sent her the message.

It was either directly her or someone directly connected to her, Gu Yanjing.

If not looking for her, then looking for Gu Yanjing.

But who would want to find Gu Yanjing?

Rather, there’s someone who’s always been looking for her.

So could this person also be after the Peace Pendant?

Qiao Yuxian raised her hand to massage her temples.

Gu Yanjing stood behind her, raising his hand to rub her head.

Yu Heng asked, "Boss, what’s the situation over there?"

"We didn’t catch up." Gu Yanjing said simply.

Qiao Yuxian said plainly, "It was my mistake, I misfired, and let them escape."

No one had too big a reaction.

Jin City, after all, is not their turf. Many things are inconvenient and unfamiliar.

On top of that, someone helped Gu Yao here, making pre-arrangements, not catching up was also normal.

Only Yu Heng.

His mouth agape, he was momentarily stunned.

The words "misfired" actually appeared on the boss!

How could it be!!!

Yu Heng was so shocked he couldn’t even feel the pain on his injured shoulder.

He looked at Qin Xia, thinking she would be just as shocked.

But Qin Xia was merely pondering, not sharing in his shock, abandoning him.

Because she was at the scene and had already been shocked.

After all, Qiao Yuxian’s marksmanship has always been very accurate.

This mistake, she found strange as well.

But Qiao Yuxian just casually said: misfired.

Said nothing more.

"Suddenly a convoy rushed out to block us." Lin Huai Shu said, "Even if you didn’t misfire that shot, little sis-in-law, our cars were all destroyed, and couldn’t catch up."

This is correct, even if the shot wasn’t a miss.

They got stopped.

But the cars in front of them.

Stop one, and they would switch to another car.

Keep driving forward.

The cars were fast enough to quickly drive out of shooting range.

Even with the best marksmanship, speed can’t match bullets.

Even if they hit someone, they’d move them to a working car and continue running.

Marksmanship wasn’t the main issue, the main thing was all their cars were done for.

That convoy rushed out precisely with this intention.

"And we’re not entirely at a loss." Lin Huai Shu said, "We caught Shi Tan."

"Right, caught a mute." Mentioning Shi Tan, Qin Xia’s anger flared.

The main thing being, this person isn’t usually like this.

They had even collaborated before.

The roles Qin Xia voiced were sometimes voiced by Shi Tan.

So facing a mute Shi Tan felt like a distortion in space-time, a distortion of herself.

She twisted into a pretzel.

"Also, how did Shi Tan connect with Gu Yao?" Qin Xia asked puzzled.

Not only puzzled but scared.

This person had been around them for years.

No one noticed.

"Xian, what do we do now?" Qin Xia tilted her head to look at her.

Qiao Yuxian was silent for a moment before saying, "Things are a bit complicated, I’ll make a call first."

"Okay." Qin Xia stretched and said, "Then if there’s nothing else, I’ll go take a nap."

"Everyone should rest a bit." Qiao Yuxian said.

Everyone walked out together, each looking for a room to rest.

Leaving the room, Qiao Yuxian walked alongside Lu Mengyi and said, "Sister Lu, don’t take Yu Heng’s thing to heart. Working on missions is about mutual aid, a few days of rest and all will be fine."

Lu Mengyi looked at her, "You were very angry just now."

"I was mad at the person who hit him. Daring to hurt anyone’s person is courting death." Qiao Yuxian said, "We’ll get even when we meet again."

Lu Mengyi nodded, "I really didn’t expect you to be Nine Emperor Hall’s Dubhe."

Lu Muyao followed beside Lu Mengyi, listening in.

Qiao Yuxian smiled and said, "What else didn’t you expect?"

"You’re a hacker." Lu Mengyi said, "And after tonight, I found you really strong. I even have some suspicions..."

Lu Mengyi looked at her, words left unsaid.

Ever since Tong Meng appeared in D Continent, Gu Yanjing suddenly left D Continent.

Adding to the current situation...

She couldn’t help but suspect.

Qiao Yuxian smiled, linking her arm with Lu Mengyi’s, walking forward and said, "Sister Lu, I’ll take you to see Nine Emperor Hall sometime."

Lu Mengyi also smiled, "Of course, I have to see it. Muyao adores Dubhe the most."

Qiao Yuxian looked at Lu Muyao, "Really?"

Lu Muyao was watching her but quickly looked away when she glanced over. His ears turned red.

Qiao Yuxian smiled, thinking to herself: Little brat.

...

Everyone looked for a room to rest.

Qiao Yuxian and Gu Yanjing entered a room.

Once in the room, Qiao Yuxian first called Huo Yanxin.

The call connected quickly.

But it wasn’t clear where Huo Yanxin was.

The music on her end was loud, accompanied by the sound of wind.

"Hello!" Huo Yanxin shouted loudly.

Qiao Yuxian immediately held the phone away, feeling her ears nearly burst.

Even Gu Yanjing, standing a couple of meters away, turned to look at her.

Qiao Yuxian also glanced at Gu Yanjing, then turned on the speaker: "Where are you?"

"Ah, it’s you." Huo Yanxin said, "I’m having a party on a mountaintop."

Qiao Yuxian: "......"

"What time is it domestically?" Huo Yanxin shouted, "Why aren’t you sleeping at this hour, calling me? What’s up? Anything wrong?"

"Yes." Qiao Yuxian said, "We just finished a task. Caught someone."

"Hmm?" The music volume on Huo Yanxin’s end lowered a bit.

Qiao Yuxian’s voice suddenly felt weak. Before recognizing Shi Tan, she had indeed hit her hard.

Hit quite heavily.

She didn’t know what Huo Yanxin’s reaction would be upon knowing.

"I caught someone." Qiao Yuxian said.

"And then?" Huo Yanxin asked.

"Initially, I didn’t recognize, so I hit the person, a bit heavily." Qiao Yuxian said.

Huo Yanxin was silent for a moment, then said, "Don’t tell me you hit Mr. Huo."

Qiao Yuxian was utterly speechless: "...... What kind of logic is that! Why would Grandpa Nine be in the Capital City! Even if he were, he’s an elder, I couldn’t just hit him!"

"True." Huo Yanxin said, "Then who?"

"Shi Tan." Qiao Yuxian said.

Upon hearing these two words, Huo Yanxin fell silent again.

And it was a long silence, before she finally said, "Are you calling me for help or something?"

"No matter what I ask, she won’t speak." Qiao Yuxian said, "Not a single word. Do you...have any suggestions?"

"Beat her." Huo Yanxin said coldly, "Preferably to the point where she’d say anything you’re asking."

Qiao Yuxian: "......"
