Chapter 247: Chapter 247: The Director Invites You_1

After lunch, Qin Sisi cuddled up with Ye You and went to bed for a nap, preparing to rest well so she could energetically practice magic when she woke up.

Two hours later, Qin Sisi, who was not fully awake yet, was woken up by her phone ringing.

Qin Sisi picked up the phone and saw Ning Hao’s na on the screen. She couldn’t help but feel surprised. They had just spoken on the phone in the morning. Why was he calling so quickly again?

With a slide of her finger, Qin Sisi answered the call and said "Hello" into the phone.

Ning Hao replied in a deep voice from the other end: "Sisi, I need to speak with you about sothing."

Qin Sisi could tell from Ning Hao’s tone that he was very serious. She imdiately sat up, dispelling her drowsy state, and clearly responded: "Okay, tell ."

Ning Hao continued: "Do you rember the director at the University of Science and Technology?"

Qin Sisi pondered a bit before responding, "I rember, what’s the matter?"

Qin Sisi had a fairly vivid impression of the director. In order to save Ning Yue, she and Ning Hao had gone to the University of Science and Technology together. They had subdued Yuan Lishu, and the director had happened to encounter them.

Initially, the director was very wary of them, but after learning of Ning Hao’s identity and Qin Sisi’s special abilities, his attitude changed. In the end, he had even forcibly given Qin Sisi a thousand yuan as a hardship allowance.

Ning Hao explained: "He just called

and asked us to visit, saying that there’s sothing he needs our help with. He specifically requested that you accompany ."

Qin Sisi was taken aback, and asked confusedly, "How does he have your number?"

Ning Hao replied, "He saw my work badge. I also told him where I work, and he inquired about my contact information through my office."

So that’s how it was. But what made him go through such trouble to find Ning Hao, then ask them to visit?

An inkling of curiosity rose in Qin Sisi’s heart. Suddenly, a na that Yuan Lishu had previously ntioned flashed through Qin Sisi’s mind.

"Brother Hei Shan".

Yuan Lishu had said that her formidable spiritual power ca from the assistance of Brother Hei Shan. Hei Shan promised to help her devour enough ghosts to break free from the Region of Death’s limitations. Then Hei Shan would take her away to wander the world and enjoy a carefree life.

Could it be that after Yuan Lishu’s spirit had been utterly obliterated, Hei Shan beca restless and began to stir up trouble?

Or perhaps sothing strange happened again on the vast and populous campus of the university?

Thinking of these possibilities, Qin Sisi imdiately said to Ning Hao at the other end of the phone: "Okay, I understand. When will we depart?"

Ning Hao paused for a mont before asking, "He hopes we can get there as soon as possible. Are you free now?"

"I am." Qin Sisi replied without hesitation. Since it might involve ghosts, it’s imperative that she goes.

Ning Hao said, "Good. I’ll be at your building in half an hour."

The two agreed on the ti and hung up the phone.

Qin Sisi turned to Ye You and said, "Sothing might have happened at the University of Science and Technology."

Ye You nodded his head and said, "I heard."

Qin Sisi deliberated for a mont before asking, "Do you think it could be the Hei Shan that Yuan Lishu spoke of?"

Ye You contemplated for a bit and responded, "I don’t know, and we shouldn’t ponder too much. Once we get there, things will naturally beco clear."

Qin Sisi nodded. Instead of idly speculating here, it’s better to adequately prepare for the imminent situation.

Qin Sisi gathered her things and, five minutes before the designated ti, she put on her shoes and left the house.

Inside the elevator, Ye You suddenly spoke, "Sisi, Yuan Lishu said that Hei Shan had killed many mages before. If it really is him, be careful not to overdo it."

Qin Sisi looked down at Ye You, her gaze eting Ye You’s eyes filled with concern.

Qin Sisi paused for a mont, then said softly, "I will rember that, and you should too."

Ye You’s gaze flickered, and in a mont of silent eye contact, it seed that no words were needed to understand each other’s thoughts.

When Qin Sisi ca downstairs, Ning Hao’s car just arrived.

Qin Sisi thought for a mont, then directly opened the door on the passenger side and got in.

Despite the lingering awkwardness between them, Qin Sisi chose to sit in the seat closest to Ning Hao for the sake of convenient communication.

"Let’s go," Qin Sisi said casually. She knew she should ignore the past awkwardness for now, so that Ning Hao can focus.

Ning Hao, of course, acted as if nothing had happened, chatting casually with Qin Sisi on the journey.

The director was very anxious but didn’t specify what the matter was, so Ning Hao couldn’t make anything out of it. Everything would only beco clear after they arrive at the University of Science and Technology and et with the director in person.

The roads during dayti were slightly jamd; it took over an hour for Ning Hao’s car to reach the gates of the University of Science and Technology.

A uniford security guard was patrolling the school gate. Qin Sisi and Ning Hao glanced simultaneously, shocked to recognize him as the young security guard who had followed the director that night.

Ning hao honked his horn and rolled down his window to greet the security guard, "Hi!"

Seeing Ning Hao, the previously anxious security guard imdiately relaxed and ran over, saying, "I have been waiting for you for a long ti!"

"You were waiting for us?" Ning Hao observed the expression on the security guard’s face keenly through his sunglasses.

The security guard responded unhesitatingly, "Yes, yes. The director told

to wait for you and lead the way."

After saying this, the security guard waved to the other guard standing by the gate, who then pressed the remote control, and the originally closed automatic gate slowly opened.

Turning back to Ning Hao, the security guard said, "Follow ," and then took off at a light trot leading the way.

Ning Hao discreetly followed along as he gently stepped on the accelerator.

Qin Sisi couldn’t help but find the situation amusing. What a difference it makes when you have a leader looking after you!

Last ti they were only allowed to park outside and were stopped by the guards when they tried to enter. Now their entrance was unimpeded, and they even had a guide to lead the way.

The young security guard led Ning Hao to a parking lot specifically intended for staff at the school. Once Ning Hao parked his car, the security guard ushered them into a nearby office building.

At the securely locked office on the third floor, the security guard stopped.

The door was slightly ajar, and the security guard carefully knocked on it a few tis.

A powerful and deep voice echoed from inside the room saying, "Co in."

Without daring to enter directly, the security guard pushed the door slightly ajar, poked his head in, and announced, "Director, I’ve brought them."

"Get them in quickly." The urgency in the voice from inside was evident. You could also hear the sound of a chair shifting, indicating that the speaker had risen from his seat.

With that, the security guard fully opened the door and led Ning Hao and Qin Sisi inside.
