Chapter 464: Chapter 463: The Pinnacle of the Shadow Hunting Team Chapter 464: Chapter 463: The Pinnacle of the Shadow Hunting Team “`
She rattled on, talking to herself.
“What?
You used to treat like a little girl, and now you don’t even consider a woman?” Her tone was nothing but intimate towards Xiao Qimo.
After speaking, she laughed, tucking her clavicle-length hair, “But it’s okay, you don’t have to regard as a woman now, I don’t even see myself as one anymore, living so roughly.
After all, how refined can one be in our line of work?
My dad always says I don’t act like a girl.”
“But he doesn’t consider that the industry I’m in isn’t typically suited for girls.
There was no helping it, I just walked further and further down this twisted path, because I love it!”
Ning Xiang had a lot to say, and Xiao Qimo just found it a bit noisy.
Ultimately, he was doing this for the sake of Ning Qun’s face.
After glancing at her, he made no further response.
Yet, the image of that cold, delicate face popped into his mind.
“By the way, Brother Qi, if your team needs people, count in.
Don’t worry, I definitely won’t hold you back, my dad now can’t stop praising my skills!”
Coincidentally, a team mber passed by and nodded in agreent, “Mr.
Qimo, we’ve already played against Xiangxiang just now, and she truly held her own!”
“If possible, I’d suggest Mr.
Qimo talk it over with our big boss.”
“Big boss?”
Ning Xiang was sowhat puzzled and wanted to ask sothing, but the person had already left.
Even when Ning Xiang pressed Xiao Qimo, he didn’t engage with her and offered no answer to her questions.
Ning Xiang felt it was a little strange.
Yet, beyond these queries, she was more eager to ask about the girl she seed to have seen in the direction of the second floor.
Who was that person?
Why was she here?
——
Lu Mian had exchanged a distant greeting with Ning Xiang, found it uninteresting, and silently returned to the Yulan Pavilion.
She hadn’t attended classes for several days and should at least show up.
ɴονǤᴑ.сօ
When she did attend, the classroom was as deserted as it could be; what was once a 50-person team was now reduced to just over 30.
Of course, no one dared to bully Lu Mian now, and even Zhang Yanyan’s treatnt had improved significantly, with the Yulan Pavilion’s hot water supply being prioritized for him.
When they saw Lu Mian return, they greeted her as warmly as they would a high-ranking official.
Lu Mian wasn’t interested and just slumped at her desk, daydreaming.
Xiu Qian in the front row could tell her mood was off.
Since class was about to start, he couldn’t ask her anything.
He pulled sothing out of his sleeves and quickly tossed it onto Lu Mian’s desk.
Lu Mian picked it up to take a look.
They were small, convenient for carrying in the sleeve.
She asked, “What’s this?”
Xiu Qian smiled, “Hand warrs.
These past few days, everyone’s been relying on these for survival!”
Lu Mian raised an eyebrow, “Did you make these yourself too?”
“Yeah.” Xiu Qian, a bit embarrassed, his cheeks flushed red: “They’re safe, don’t worry.”
In the heater-less north, everything was cold and dry.
Lu Mian needed them, so she put one warr in each sleeve.
And then…
she fell into a peaceful sleep.
The people from Zitan Pavilion knew she had a class, so they didn’t ask much, but Xiao Qimo sent an invitation ssage quite punctually at noon.
[Got so tasty food.]
Lu Mian sighed at the ssage, it was always like this.
“`
I really have no idea what to do with myself.
——
When Lu Mian arrived at the Zitan Pavilion, unlike the usual calmness, today’s lobby was unusually lively; she could hear the bustle from afar.
She tilted her head in confusion, then suddenly rembered that there was a new girl here recently, which naturally made the place livelier.
She entered expressionlessly, and as she passed through the lobby, she saw Ning Xiang holding sothing, showing it off to everyone bit by bit.
Surrounding her were all the boys from the team, intermittently exclaiming with amazent.
Ning Xiang was seated in the center, like the moon surrounded by stars, slowly spreading out the photos in her hands.
“Co on, guys, take a look at the most glorious ti of our Shadow Hunting Team.
Of course, I’m not saying that you don’t have a more glorious future, just that this is the past achievent, to remind you of the history,” she said in a very casual tone, obviously getting along well with the group of boys.
“Brother, don’t worry!
We are also envious of the past achievents of the Shadow Hunting Team.
We don’t know when we will be able to surpass them…” The team mbers echoed her style, talking brotherly.
The Shadow Hunting Team was established on February 10, 2012.
In 2013 and 2014, the team clinched 7 CTF championship titles and ranked third on the global CTFTI leaderboard.
This leaderboard was point-based, and their team was relatively young, having only participated in competitions for two years, but their points had already soared to third.
Compared to the two veteran teams ahead, this was already a remarkable record.
However, due to the incident in 2015, the current Shadow Hunting Team could only rank ninth on the CTFTI leaderboard.
The old team mbers were aware of these events, but for these new fresh blood in the team, they were unclear on the details.
They only knew that the forr Shadow Hunting Team was very strong, so strong that they might never reach that level again in their lifeti.
Now that Ning Xiang was showing them these things, they were quite interested.
“Guys, co and see, this one here is the team photo when they won the championship for the 1st ti,” Ning Xiang announced.
“However, at that ti, I was in class and didn’t go, which is really a pity.
Look, this is my dad.
He was quite handso when he was young.”
“And this person…” Just as she pointed to soone in the photo, a team mber exclaid, “This is the captain, the captain was so tender when he was young!”
“What are you talking about?
S God is still tender now,” Ning Xiang laughed heartily, slapping her thigh.
“Yes, yes, S God is still tender now, but he was even more tender back then.”
The group’s attention continued to linger on the photo, and upon seeing a certain person, they curiously asked, “Is this Mr.
Qimo?”
Since the photo’s portraits were small and it was an early shot, not so clear, they couldn’t see it clearly but could make out a familiar outline, sowhat resembling Mr.
Qimo.
Ning Xiang gave a definite answer.
“Yes, this is your Mr.
Qimo.”
She didn’t know why they called Xiao Qimo “Mr.
Qimo,” but Xiao Qimo was a man with many rules, and since others called him that, she didn’t say anything.
The team mbers all had a sudden realization, no wonder Mr.
Qimo had such a good relationship with the captain; they used to be teammates.
“That’s amazing!
But why did Mr.
Qimo leave the team now?
With his ability, he could definitely lead the team to even more glorious heights.”
Ning Xiang shook her head; she didn’t know either.
As their gaze fell on the photo again, soone pointed to a face that seed familiar but a little foreign and asked, “Who is this person?
I feel like I’ve seen him before.”
“I’ve noticed it too.”
“We don’t have such a person on our team.”
In the end, it was Ning Qun who ca over.
He looked at the person they were pointing at and seed to think of sothing, his expression growing sowhat dim.
