The subsequent events seed to follow naturally, with Quentin wanting to ask for Yue Qingqing’s phone number and invite her to dinner.
It looked just like the beginning of a romantic movie.
Yue Qingqing politely declined, "Sorry, I already have a boyfriend."
Quentin was quite disappointed, "Shouldn’t I bla myself for this? For not eting such a beautiful girl earlier."
Yue Qingqing smiled slightly and turned to leave.
Quentin couldn’t help but ask, "Will there be a chance for us to et again next ti? Maybe you have other beautiful Eastern girls like you around?"
"We’ll see next ti we et."
Quentin looked in the direction Yue Qingqing left, deep in thought.
Indeed, she’s a very cautious girl.
Completely different from the girls around here.
During the conversation, Quentin intentionally revealed so information, portraying himself as a boy from a well-off family, yet simple and romantic.
He carelessly showed his watch on his wrist and the branded car keys sticking out from his jacket pocket.
However, Yue Qingqing ignored them.
The challenge is a bit tough, but not entirely hopeless.
Quentin returned full of confidence, and that night Yue Qingqing contacted senior brother.
"I can feel it, this person is one of those prying on ."
Lin Haoqiu had already obtained the man’s photo through the earring.
"I sent them to so friends, and they’re still verifying."
"Okay."
In less than two days, Lin Haoqiu called again.
As soon as the call connected, he got straight to the point: "This is a dangerous individual."
Receiving such a comnt from senior brother, Yue Qingqing imdiately sat upright in alertness.
"What do you an?"
"It has now been confird, this man is related to several missing person cases. The police are closely watching, but he seems not to be acting alone and leaves no clues each ti."
"Several missing person cases? Do the targets he finds have any common traits?"
Yue Qingqing wanted to know how exactly she beca the target.
"None, it’s almost like a random selection, anyone could be a target—regardless of gender or age."
Yue Qingqing also found it incomprehensible, not knowing that Quentin and his group were akin to the greediest of rchants.
They would strike as long as there was profit involved.
No careful selection at all.
The internet has made the world smaller but also spawned many dark corners.
These rats can find like-minded rats and even built a nest of mice.
In the previous world, Lin Haoqiu had discussed with his master the question of whether human nature is inherently good or evil.
The conclusion was that only through education can people’s wisdom be awakened, and discernnt between right and wrong be achieved.
Without any constraints, human evil will expand and magnify without limits.
Just like the dark web Quentin spoke of.
And those missing persons are only a small part of it.
"I will keep an eye on this person."
Yue Qingqing was very serious, not underestimating anything because of her cultivator status.
If it were in the old world, Yue Qingqing indeed wouldn’t need to pay much attention to mortals.
But here, civilization has made the world both safer and more dangerous.
Like the incident before, if the other party didn’t have a peculiar personality, but instead shot her imdiately upon seeing her...
Yue Qingqing also doubted whether she could react in an instant.
In the most dangerous monts, people can only rely on muscle mory, and Yue Qingqing was evidently not very familiar with this world’s firearms.
Caution kept Yue Qingqing from leaving the campus recently, maintaining her previous routine.
She even refused the exchange students’ invitations to go on tours.
This caused Quentin’s organization to start getting anxious.
A few days later, Yue Qingqing encountered Quentin once again on campus.
