The two Little Papermen split the Black Fog Bead that had bunched up as if no one was present—this was their snack.
Hearing the rustling sound, the Little Papermen remembered that they had not yet completed their task.
Then, with a turn of their heads, they saw everyone’s gaze fixed on them in unison.
The Little Papermen immediately covered their eyes in embarrassment, as if this way, they wouldn’t have to worry about being seen.
The lead Bodyguard, having just taken a fresh breath of air, stood directly in front of Doctor Yu and the others, clenching the gun in his hand.
Fortunately, he had some discernment and did not point the gun at the Little Papermen, otherwise, they certainly would have been beaten.
Seeing the real-life version of ’plugging one’s ears while stealing a bell’, the Bodyguard’s mouth twitched—were these foolish things really the imposing figures from before?
Moreover, if he hadn’t seen wrong before he nearly fainted, these two Little Papermen flew out from the car.
Thinking back to the loud barking at the reception point during the day, now, there was nothing he didn’t understand.
The big dog must have seen these two Little Papermen. But prior to this, they had searched the car thoroughly and even watched the surveillance, yet they hadn’t seen them.
The wind, gently blowing, it was already cold at night, and after barely escaping an accident without a splash of water, their lives nearly ended.
At this moment, everyone felt a chill running through their bodies.
Especially since these two Little Papermen could talk—even though it seemed safe now, everyone on the scene inexplicably started getting goosebumps.
The Bodyguard swallowed hard, confronting the two Little Papermen in front of him, not sure whether they were friends or foes.
The Little Papermen, however, had recovered from their initial embarrassment and let go of the hands covering their eyes.
With a flash, they appeared at the site of the earlier car flip, and with a gentle push, the overturned car immediately righted itself.
At the same time, there was a loud noise, and dust flew up all around.
The Little Papermen immediately dodged back with some disdain—they were clean little treasures.
Doctor Yu, silently watching this scene, was shocked; such a small palm-sized Little Paperman, not only had amazing speed but could also shake such a large vehicle.
Although he had never gotten along with the Xuanmen people, it did not mean he was unaware of their capabilities. However, as far as he knew, no one had such skills.
As far as he could tell, the Little Papermen meant no harm to them.
Doctor Yu gently pushed aside the Bodyguard in front and even cleared his throat.
It was as if he truly regarded the Little Paperman with a milky voice as a child.
"May I ask, who are you..."
The Little Papermen’s mission was to protect Doctor Yu and prevent harm from coming to him, so they were quite polite towards him.
"Our master knew you were in danger, so we were sent to protect you."
Doctor Yu paused for a moment before continuing: "Who is your master?"
Doing good deeds anonymously was not Yun Ran’s style, but considering that she had crossed paths with Doctor Yu and was willing to offer him a special admission spot on behalf of Principal Du.
If she hadn’t been helpful, it would have been fine, but now that she had helped, especially by saving a life, she had to give Principal Du some credit.
At the very least, let people know that Principal Du’s favor was not wasted and that the person he recommended wouldn’t let others down.
The Little Paperman immediately replied with what Yun Ran had told them before: "Go ask Principal Du, he knows."
After that, the Little Paperman disappeared with a swoosh.
Just like when a person watches a mosquito intently, wanting to slap it dead, and the mosquito suddenly vanishes from sight.
The Bodyguards who were inside the flipped car finally crawled out. They hadn’t seen the Little Paperman’s show of power just now.
At the moment, looking at their stunned companions and the people they were supposed to protect, all staring in the same direction, they were also puzzled.
"Boss, what are you looking at?"
The lead Bodyguard, seeing his companions emerge from the car with blood on their foreheads, clearly wasn’t in the mood to explain everything that had happened.
"First, deal with your wounds, then check the vehicles. If there is no problem, let’s hurry and leave!"
With the command given, the rest of the people started moving in action, and Sun Qian, who had been knocked out, was already tied up and dragged onto the last car.
At this moment, Doctor Yu’s mind was filled with what the Little Paperman had just said; if it weren’t the middle of the night, he would have called Principal Du immediately.
The Bodyguards carefully checked the vehicles; fortunately, these were special-made, with some damage, but this did not affect the continuation of their journey.
"Doctor Yu, if there is anything else that needs your instruction, otherwise, we will continue our journey."
The Bodyguard actually wanted to ask if these defenseless people had been frightened, and whether they needed a break.
But having just witnessed a falling out between master and apprentice, as an outsider, it was not appropriate to be too blunt and hit a raw nerve; he understood these worldly manners.
Doctor Yu shook his head: "Let’s leave here sooner."
He wasn’t sure if the Little Paperman was still around, but this place wasn’t good anyway; it was better to leave as soon as possible to avoid more trouble.
This thought was not only held by Doctor Yu, but his few students and the other Bodyguards all secretly had the same idea.
It was just that nobody had spoken out loud.
Once the car doors closed, the students in their thirties, almost hitting forty, looked at Doctor Yu with concern.
There was still a trace of naiveté and ignorance untouched by society in their eyes: "Teacher, Senior Sister Sun, oh, not..."
The more anxious they were, the more they misspoke, so in the end, they all lowered their heads. Their professional abilities were beyond doubt, but their social skills were mediocre.
"Do you want to take responsibility for your own projects?"
Upon hearing this, they hurriedly shook their heads, nearly rattling their heads like rattle drums.
"Being in charge involves not only professional ability but also overall planning capability. We are straightforward and not really suitable for dealing with those people."
Doing archaeology isn’t just about working blindly.
Several big names in their field had been conned in years past, becoming accomplices to those who looted artifacts from tombs.
If their abilities ultimately became tools aiding villains, they would rather remain obscure for life, just doing their own work.
Sun Qian, with too many ambitions, made Doctor Yu reluctant to let go, fearing that she would not abide by the rules and stray from the right path.
Looking at his few ’silly’ students, too honest, following instructions to a fault, Doctor Yu sighed deeply. He felt that he had no successors.
