Jiang Xue thought about how the other person had just crawled out of the icy lake, with a severe injury on his left arm, yet still managed to maintain meticulous thoughts. She felt a pang of heartache.
"I won't try to persuade you," Jiang Xue whispered, "your aunt will assist you."
"Thank you," Qing Chen said with a smile.
"By the way, you can sleep on the bed later, and I'll sleep on the sofa outside. Just call me if you need anything," Jiang Xue said.
"Okay," Qing Chen didn't decline. The executive suite had only one large bed, with a bedroom inside and a living room added outside, so one of them had to sleep on the sofa.
After all, both of them couldn't sleep on the bed.
Besides, Qing Chen knew he couldn't outstubborn Jiang Xue and decided not to waste time.
He applied some ointment to his left arm and then lay down on the bed, picking up his cellphone with his right hand.
At this point, He Xiaoxiao's group chat had somehow already exploded.
An ID named "zard1991" was describing in the group: "Today's events began with the enmity between the Daytime organization and Huan Yu. At noon, a core member of the Daytime organization, Qing Chen, came to Xian City to participate in a math competition. Upon receiving this intel, Huan Yu was instantly enraged and decided to make a move, surrounding the entire Daytime organization using the tactic of encircling points to aid each other!"
When Qing Chen saw this scene, he suddenly realized that this person was definitely connected to Huan Yu's side, or else how could he know so clearly?
But this person didn't seem completely aligned with Huan Yu either, as this description of 'rage rising from the heart, malice growing near the gall' felt like Huan Yu would be fuming if he read it.
Qing Chen recalled that last time He Xiaoxiao said everyone should share a piece of intel, this "zard1991" shared a quite trivial piece of news: there were 1302 people in the Public Security Management Committee of the 16th city.
You could say this intel wasn't qualified, yet it indeed was a piece of intel.
To say it was qualified, you wouldn't know what was the use of this intel.
If you go by it to deduce that Zard belonged to the Public Security Management Committee, it could also be a misdirection from others.
At this point, there were still some people in the group who didn't know the truth and asked, "Who is Qing Chen?"
Zard: "He's the assassin on Laojun Mountain who killed all the gangsters, so cool! Let me tell you, this fellow Qing Chen is really powerful. On the bungee tower, alone with a knife, he stopped all the thugs charging at his boss. He's truly a Time Traveler! A hero standing firm, unbreachable by thousands, an exemplar for all Time Travelers!"
Zard: "And most crucially, you know what? Faced against dozens of people, this fellow Qing Chen survived all by himself. Not just that, he lay in wait on the Bungee Tower, seizing the chance to heavily injure Huan Yu's top fighter, Zhang San! Yes, the one who was kicked out of this group previously!"
When Qing Chen read this, he was very puzzled, wondering whose side Zard truly was on.
Chuang Wang: "How the hell do you know so clearly?"
Zard: "I have my ways, why do you care?"
Then Qing Bao again asked, "What is the Daytime organization?"
"The main base of the Daytime organization should be in Los Angeles City," Zard said. "Core members... ah, I don't exactly know how many there are, but they're pretty incredible. Speaking of Qing Chen, let's talk about the mysterious boss of Daytime."
Zard: "You guys don't know, if Qing Chen is a fierce general of Daytime, then the mysterious boss of Daytime is like a God descended. Only seen him in the night carrying a black anti-materiel sniper rifle, firing twelve shots in six seconds, shooting down twelve border drones in the sky."
Chuang Wang: "Wait a minute, who the hell can bring such a huge thing as a border drone back?"
Zard: "Oops, I misspoke. Let's continue talking about the Daytime organization. You know what, when the Daytime boss had finished dealing with all the assassins, he said over the communications channel to Huan Yu: Daytime sends its regards. It was so damn cool, I really want to join Daytime now. Is there a bigwig from Daytime in the group, letting me join your organization?"
Chuang Wang: "Wait, how many people from both sides participated tonight?"
Zard: "Daytime had two people, Huan Yu had more than ninety, and Huan Yu's side got wiped out."
Huan Yu: "Are you done yet?"
Zard: "The main character has appeared, time to retreat!"
Qing Chen, who had been very tense, ended up being amused by this scene.
By now, he had concluded that this Zard was probably the one observing him secretly at Weiyang Lake Park tonight.
But here comes the problem, isn't he with Huan Yu? Why does he seem so irrepressible, as if even Huan Yu himself had trouble controlling him.
That was a bit strange.
However, everyone in the group had been shocked by the information revealed by Zard. Experience tales at My Virtual Library Empire
2 people vs 90 people, and the side with more people got wiped out?
What the hell is that all about?
Are they shooting a movie or what? Do these two have protagonist auras, allowing them to simply not die?
Truth be told, everyone couldn't even imagine what tonight's battle was like; it was beyond everyone's imagination!
Huan Yu said, "Let me reveal some information to everyone, the anti-materiel sniper rifle that the Daytime boss holds is a taboo. Those who want it, go find him."
The group went silent again, no one picked up the bait.
Zard had just mentioned how powerful the Daytime organization was, and now you're encouraging everyone to snatch the taboo, even fools know what you're trying to do.
At that moment, only Qing Bao was still asking, "I want to know the condition of Qing Chen and the Daytime boss right now, are they hurt? How severe are their injuries? Where are they?"
Zard: "One last thing: I don't know either, I was following them but lost them. This Daytime boss is especially vigilant, I felt like I was close to death just by getting a bit closer, so I also don't know where they went. Qing Chen should be okay; he took a bullet to the abdomen, but it wasn't a fatal location. Given the Transcendent's physical condition, as long as he didn't die on the spot, he's very likely not to die. Not saying anymore, retreating again!"
