Bai Fu greeted Herbert with a beaming smile, and then they parted ways.
There was still an hour to the appointed ti, and neither Bai Fu nor Herbert had any interest in continuing each other’s company.
Why torture oneself?
Better to take a nice stroll nearby!
The Tidal Star System was vastly different from the Sea Lion Star System. The latter was ford by a Star Network Community consisting of multiple civilizations. Due to various historical issues, the Star Network Community only controlled about 3/5 of the Sea Lion Star System. In contrast, the Tidal Star System was dominated by the single Tidal Civilization, which controlled over 95% of the system.
This high degree of unification, coupled with a certain locational advantage, ant the Tidal Star System had developed much better than the Sea Lion Star System.
Its bustling activity was evident from the throughput of Sail Harbor; by simply looking up, Bai Fu could see spaceships constantly streaking across the skies, an extraordinary level of busyness rarely seen on the Star Network, yet it did not bring about any sense of pressure.
The Tidal Civilization had its unique artistic aesthetic, which was reflected in architecture, clothing, cuisine, and many other aspects.
Wandering through the city district adjacent to Sail Harbor and viewing the buildings, roads, and landscapes that beautifully blended ancient styles with modern technology, Bai Fu felt refreshed and uplifted.
"If I rember correctly, Suixi, the leader of the Holy Band, is from the Tidal People. Why did she leave the Tidal Civilization and go to the Blessing Sect in the Sea Lion Star System?"
Fei Ye explained, "I’ve heard about this. Before joining the Blessing Sect, Suixi had been an idol trainee in an entertainnt company within the Tidal Star System. However, just as she was about to debut, an accident happened. All mbers of her idol group, except for her, died."
"Everyone died?"
Digging Girl’s eyes widened as she eagerly aid the ga’s built-in recorder at Fei Ye, like a cat that had found a ball of yarn, eager to capture the conversation.
At this point, the other players around them also stopped their chatter and gathered closer.
"Yes, it was quite a stir at the ti. The group had garnered a lot of attention in the Tidal Star System even before their debut, amassing a number of fans who were looking forward to their success. But then..." Fei Ye’s mouth twitched, "before they could debut, soone in their group began wreaking havoc."
"Was it Suixi who killed them?"
Digging Girl asked.
Fei Ye shook her head, "No, it wasn’t her. It was another person. After killing the other mbers, that person was killed by Suixi."
"?"
Bai Fu was stunned. This was intense.
"Is there a possibility that the killer was instructed by Suixi, and Suixi killed her afterwards to silence her?" Digging Girl asked again, having seen such plots in mystery movies.
Fei Ye chuckled, "It’s not that complicated. With the technology level of the Tidal Civilization, recreating the scene of the cri is simple. At that ti, Suixi was only 10 years old, and she couldn’t have covered it up. In any case, after the incident, Suixi’s career as an idol ended. She stayed at the appraisal institution for a long ti, and after coming out, she was sent to a Spirit Healing center. While she was at the center, the Blessing Sect took notice of her, and she subsequently joined the sect."
Nodding thoughtfully, Digging Girl felt she was onto sothing important from the plot explained by Fei Ye, and it seed necessary to interview Suixi later.
After wandering around the city on the ground for another half an hour, they finally rushed to the hotel booked by the Blessing Sect.
"Are you the Void Battle Maiden and Saintess Bai Fu? Welco to Sail Harbor."
"What, Void Battle Maiden and Saintess Bai Fu?
"Where, let see?"
As soon as they arrived at the hotel entrance, many people surrounded them excitedly.
As a selectable character of "Cosmic Net," Fei Ye had been famous in various stars of the Initial Gate Star System for several years, and Bai Fu had recently beco popular in neighboring star systems from the Sea Lion Star System.
Part of this was because of Bai Fu’s good looks, surpassing many star idols, and also due to the major forces of the Initial Gate Star System recently cracking down on Secret Tower. With Secret Tower often making headlines, Bai Fu naturally beca famous for slapping Secret Tower twice at Heavenly Lake Star and Constant Star Graveyard.
Being famous had many advantages, but also so drawbacks, such as now where Bai Fu and Fei Ye’s path was blocked.
"Please, make way, everyone. We’re just here for tourism, and we don’t have any special mission."
Fortunately, the hotel manager intervened in ti and dispersed the crowd.
Until they reached the door of the hotel room, Bai Fu could still hear people shouting from behind.
"Saintess, Saintess, are you and the Void Battle Maiden really in a relationship?"
Bai Fu wiped the sweat from her forehead.
"It looks like we’ll have to disguise ourselves a bit more when we go on the mission later, otherwise we’ll be recognized before we even get close."
She lightly knocked on the door, and after a few seconds, the door suddenly opened, revealing the smiling face of Elon. Looking past Elon, she could see Herbert and Suixi in the room.
"Welco, welco."
Elon smiled and ushered Bai Fu and the others into the room, with Digging Girl’s eyes shining brightly behind them.
FuFu surely commanded presence!
After taking their seats, Elon got straight to the point about the details of the mission at hand.
"Are we not afraid of leaking information by discussing it here?" Fei Ye asked with surprise.
Elon replied, "Don’t worry, this hotel is owned by our Blessing Sect. There’s no safer place in Sail Harbor. Besides, Secret Tower’s hidden base is not here, so no trouble will arise."
