109: Chapter 25 I Will Protect You 109: Chapter 25 I Will Protect You Saturday morning, 9:50 a.m.
Right on schedule, the bright red sports car arrived at the destination of the date, a comprehensive building called Extreme Stability Building.
The Extreme Stability Building was one of the first facilities to be built by private capital investment after the official opening of the City of the Firmament.
Half of the 30-story building was rented out as office space, while the remaining floors offered a variety of service industries suitable for different income groups, aiming to create consumer facilities where all citizens could enjoy their days off.
The original name of this building was An Ding Building, embodying the investors’ earnest hope that it would suffer less damage in the chaotic superpower city.
Whether it was the name that actually worked wonders, since its opening, the building had never been involved in any brawls.
To commemorate this miraculous stability, the investors officially renamed it Extreme Stability Building last year, hoping that in the next decade, the building would continue to stand tall and bring in a steady stream of wealth.
Choosing this place as the main battlefield for this date was partly influenced by college students’ superstition of borrowing good luck.
Another more important reason was that a certain gray-haired young man decided to take this rare opportunity to try every single idea they had—surely one of them would work!
Shiyu Lianyi had his doubts about this.
(Hang in there, Shiyu Lianyi.
I’ll be there in 11 minutes and 36 seconds!)
How did you get here.
And even if you do come, you won’t be any help.
(Miss Qiluo, maybe you should wait for Gongsun and the others to come back…)
On the main road of Fixed Wing District, a yellow electric bike was weaving through traffic at top speed.
The helmet-less female rider was controlling the handle with one hand and unfolding a handwritten plan with the other, reading it while maneuvering the vehicle!
“Pretend to be an official and offer movie tickets…
the movie chosen depending on the situation is…
No, there’s not enough time now, I have to move up to Second Stage…!”
Qiluo muttered as she read the plan, her gaze not even on the main road, dangerously driving!
But the girl really did it—despite not paying any attention to the traffic, she managed to avoid large vehicles that suddenly changed lanes.
The electric bike zigzagged through the lanes like a snake, and if an idle superpower user had been observing from above, they would have noticed that this recklessly moving bike was actually traveling on the optimal route to the building.
This route, existing only in the rider’s mind, was constantly adjusting and optimizing with every change in traffic, as if a high-ranking strategist was overseeing the entire battlefield and relaying all the information to Qiluo…
Yet the girl wasn’t assisted by anyone, her focus solely on the note in her hand, oblivious to the curses she was receiving from the surroundings.
How is she driving !” A familiar voice mixed with the cursing of drivers in multiple languages reached her, all filtered out by Qiluo as background noise.
“Gongsun Ce and Qin Qianbai are both absent, Shiyu Lianyi’s romance can only rely on my assistance.”
The pink-haired girl with twin ponytails was determined.
They were all people who had been good to her, and she had to repay this kindness no matter what.
If she gave up here, Shiyu Lianyi’s date was likely to be ruined, and she simply couldn’t stand by and watch such a tragedy unfold!
(Shiyu Lianyi, I’ve reorganized the plan!
Now take Kardesia to the furniture sale on the 10th floor!)
“Gongsun Ce can’t do it, Qin Qianbai can’t either…” Miss Qiluo firmly made her way towards the destination, “It’s up to me to protect!
I, Qiluo, will guard your love!”
The electric bike made a bold turn, shooting through the space between a neighboring truck and a black sedan, rushing through the intersection just before the light changed!
Qiluo rode away on the electric bike, leaving a trail of dust behind.
The driver of the black sedan, a burly man in a black tank top, stared dumbfounded ahead: “…
Did I just get cut off by a tiny electric moped?”
The flat-topped muscular man in the passenger seat said to the driver, “Did you see that female rider?
I feel like she sort of fits the description…”
The truck in front began to move slowly, and the burly man drove to follow.
At that moment, a brown two-wheeled vehicle darted from the side of their vision, streaking past the front of their car like lightning!
“So that’s how it’s done.”
“It’s too fast—she ran a red light—ah—!!”
The young man’s cries grew fainter as the long-haired rider and the man with a duckbill cap sped off on the two-wheeled vehicle that looked remarkably like tree bark.
The driver instinctively slammed on the brakes, causing the three passengers to bounce off their seats, each head hitting the roof with three crisp sounds.
“Ah!” The burly driver winced in pain as he sat down, recalling the battered vehicle he had just seen and shouted in a mix of anger and embarrassment, “A wooden bike…?
I got cut off by a wooden bike?!”
The flat-topped muscular man in the passenger seat said to the driver, “Did you see that male rider?
I feel like he looks a bit like…”
The third passenger in the back seat, a yellow-haired man with a thuggish demeanor, had made intimate contact with the window on his first emergency stop and had hit his head a second time in the sudden halt.
This unlucky superpower user angrily pounded the car seat, shouting, “Stop guessing, it’s the bastard who came the other night!
The driver was stupefied, “Chase, chase whom?”
