"How co we have to leave now? I wanted to hear what Liu Dezhu is going to say." Nan Gengchen complained.
Qing Chen glanced at him and said, "What for? It’s not as if you are a ti traveler. It's useless listening to him."
Feeling exposed, Nan Gengchen paused for a mont and said, "These are so rare first-hand accounts of the stories from the Inner World. What if you… we actually get to transmigrate one day? We might find it useful."
"Not interested," said Qing Chen casually.
"Transmigration is so fun," said Nan Gengchen, "If we can both get to the Inner World, there's a chance that we might beco a supernatural being or perhaps get so chanical limbs and beco superhuman."
Qing Chen, "….."
In the end, the reporters got stopped by a large group of teachers before entering the building. The school was built for learning, and in no way could outsiders disrupt this environnt.
Just as the first class ended, a figure quietly jumped over the school fence and ca in.
He found a random student on the school field and asked, "Where is Class Four of the high school second-years?"
The student was stunned by the person's strong Sichuan accent but still pointed at where the class was.
The middle-aged man thanked him and went to the building.
Now, Liu Dezhu was just returning from the teacher's office, and before other students could surround him, one person ca up first and said, "You are Liu Dezhu, right? I'll get you all the money you need, just please talk to Li Shutong, and ask him to set free, alright?"
It took a while for everyone to realize what was going on.
But it only took one second of silence to make this classroom seem abruptly different from the noisy school surroundings.
"He's… Jian Sheng! He's still in Luo City! Quick, get the teacher!" So students started yelling.
After his planned business trip here, Jian Sheng didn't leave Luo City, because he still had so more matters to finish.
When he saw the comnt on Weibo this morning, he ca straight to Luo City Foreign Language School.
In fact, he wasn't sure if Liu Dezhu would be of any help, but since everyone was saying so…
He stood in front of the classroom door and said, "Which one of you is Liu Dezhu?"
One person pointed, and Liu Dezhu, realizing that things weren't going well for him, was about to run off in another direction.
Jian Sheng rushed up to him and said in a hurry, "I know that you are powerful in Prison 18, that supernatural being who interrogated even stood behind you."
Liu Dezhu didn't know what to do, "That's not . You got the wrong person!"
"Kid, have no worries, I promise, I won't harm you…" As Jian Sheng was speaking, two teachers pulled him out of the classroom, "I'll pay!!"
In the hallway, Jian Sheng's yell still echoed around the classrooms as the students turned to look at Liu Dezhu…
Liu Dezhu was about to collapse. He never would've thought that his little lie would bring him so many troubles.
Honestly, what he wanted to do the most right now was to find the identity of the third prisoner who was in Prison 18.
He wanted to know who would get him into such a scapegoat position.
At this very mont, the person that got him all this was sitting in the classroom right next to him as if all the commotion outside had nothing to do with him.
He saw that Nan Gengchen took out a computer science textbook and asked, "Why are you suddenly interested in this?"
"No… nothing," said Nan Gengchen, "I just like to learn sothing that I can use later. Say, shouldn't we attempt to get close to Liu Dezhu so that when we get to the Inner World, we'll at least be able to find a friend there?"
"There's no need for that," replied Qing Chen, "I'm not a ti traveler anyway."
Now he started thinking.
He knew that Liu Dezhu was faking it before, but ti travelers like Nan Gengchen wouldn't know.
Now that there were probably a total of more than ten thousand ti travelers around the country, is it possible if Liu Dezhu's "background" in the Inner World would attract them all to Luo City?
Because it seed obvious to find so "reliable companions" in the Inner World.
He Xiaoxiao even suggested in his videos for people to play this in a small group, but a stupid teammate and a reliable one would make a big difference.
But there was still one thing that Qing Chen couldn't understand.
So much had happened here today, so how co the people from Kun Lun still hadn't shown up yet?
Are they not interested in Li Shutong's thods?
Of course, they are interested.
There must be sothing that's happening.
Until self-study that night, Qing Chen still didn't see Kun Lun's appearance. He had a hunch that sothing would happen but had no idea what it was.
……
9:20 PM. High school second-years and third-years all rushed out of the school.
The school buildings lit under the streetlights were beautiful in a unique way.
The students in school uniforms chatted along the way as they walked back ho. One student got on his bike and waved goodbye to his classmates then dashing into the darkness.
There's a girl that stood in front, and a boy behind her deliberately fooled around with his other friends trying to grab her attention.
This seems to be the norm among teenagers.
As Liu Dezhu left his classmates, he rode his bike toward Xinglong Garden.
Rembering what happened this morning, he felt wronged, but he couldn't do anything about it.
As he crossed Yellow River Street, he felt sothing odd. A black van quickly approached him.
He glanced at the van and saw that the people sitting in the front row both wore sunglasses, and the one on the passenger seat was even turning to look at him.
Shit! Liu Dezhu thought to himself.
Just as both of them were about to go under a bridge that didn't have security caras installed…
The person driving the black van suddenly turned the steering wheel, trying to crash the van into Liu Dezhu.
He quickly rode the bike onto the sidewalk, but to his surprise, the van also drove onto the sidewalk, flipping over Liu Dezhu and his bike.
The tires made a sharp noise with the ground and soon ca Liu Dezhu's scream.
The van stopped tilted on the sidewalk, and the door opened. Two people ca down the van as a man's cold voice sounded from behind, "Be quick, bring him up."
The two n with dark sunglasses ca for Liu Dezhu without hesitation.
The two seed so muscular that they looked like those gangsters from Hong Kong movies.
Most importantly, Liu Dezhu saw very clearly that these two n all had chanical limbs installed on them!
"Help!" Liu Dezhu scread for his life.
Instantly, a sharp, blinding light ca from behind, shining on everyone.
The roaring of a car engine approached like a tal beast cruising on the asphalt.
*Crash!* A black SUV aggressively smashed head-first onto the van from behind!
The van got flipped over and rolled to the side.
The face of the two gangsters changed, and they both dashed toward the black SUV as two long knives flipped out from their chanical arms. But, before they could get close to the SUV, a blurry figure jumped down from the bridge that was six ters1~20 feet above the ground.
Soone had been waiting for them this whole ti!
The figure fell as fast as a bolt of lightning. Before any of the gangsters could react, it was already on top of them.
The tal legs stepped on top of the gangster's shoulders and squashed them to the ground.
Blue sparks flickered, and as the gangsters' chanical limbs got smashed to pieces, the electronic parts also fell out from inside.
The figure that had fallen from the sky turned to ask Liu Dezhu, "Are you ok? Nice to et you. I'm Kun Lun's leader, Chen Yuandong.”
1~20 feet
