Chapter 126: Chapter 126: New World
Well, that’s excellent…
At least she hasn’t been taken to the police station before!
Bai Yinyin felt even more excited than when she won the second prize in the citywide calligraphy competition, her heart pounding as she immediately took out her phone to make a call, hardly able to contain her excitement:
“Mom, Bai Chuwei, that adopted girl, has been caught by the police station. I heard she’s done something wrong!”
Liu Man and Bai Hongguang were shocked. An adopted daughter who just mooched off them without studying properly and now she had been caught by the police?
Liu Man cursed unreservedly, “A disgraceful nuisance, truly bringing shame from her very genes. No one go to the station to bail her out; let her be detained for a few days to suffer.”
Look at her own daughter, Bai Yinyin, born from her excellent genes? The house was full of Yinyin’s piano trophies and calligraphy certificates. The adopted daughter truly couldn’t compare.
Bai Guofu was already old and was asleep at this time, totally oblivious to the incident.
The police car moved slowly in the night, with streetlights flashing past the windows.
Bai Chuwei leaned casually against the back of the seat, looking through the rearview mirror to see that there was a car following them.
The car stopped inside the police station, but the person leading the way did not intend to take her to the hall for interrogation, he said, “Miss Bai, the meeting room, please.”
They were heading to the meeting room.
Bai Chuwei hooked the corner of her lips, looked at the stern-faced Duan Feihan, and patted his shoulder, saying, “Hanhan, wait for me outside.” She then turned and followed them, smiling all the way.
The meeting room was not big, only a few dozen square meters, with a ring of long tables in the middle and a projector screen hanging on the wall. Inside, several fit men sat, wearing very special uniforms.
Bai Chuwei understood and smiled knowingly, pulling out a chair to sit down with an easy familiarity. She placed one hand on the long table and chuckled, “Go ahead.”
She wasn’t afraid at all; anyone else would be nervous arriving here, but she acted as if she were in her own home.
The middle-aged man leading the group casually turned on the projector, and as the video started playing on the screen, he introduced himself, “Miss Bai Chuwei, hello, I’m Zhou Ming from China’s Unnatural Management Bureau. We mainly handle cases like Master Sun’s.”
The video showed her sitting inside a taxi and then suddenly disappearing.
Bai Chuwei, propping up her chin, said, “So what?”
Zhou Ming laughed and said, “Miss Bai is very smart, you must already know the reason we’re looking for you today. Over the past twenty or so years, as spiritual energy has resurfaced, it has gradually given rise to cultivators and superpower users. Miss Bai, you might consider joining us.”
Bai Chuwei understood; it was all about banding together.
Whether ordinary people or cultivators, people from China liked to stick together.
“If Miss Bai joins, we will provide you with a large number of cultivation materials, spirit stones, spirit talismans, and array manuals that have been passed down for a thousand years.”
Upon hearing this, Bai Chuwei was amused, “No need, I’m not interested in those.”
Seeing Bai Chuwei uninterested, Zhou Ming frowned and reminded, “Miss Bai might not be aware that there’s an organization of superpower users abroad, the demonic cultivators, who often engage in dangerous activities. Joining us is not about restricting your freedom, but about ensuring your safety.”
Bai Chuwei’s lips curved up, “You’re talking about New World?”
All present were startled; Bai Chuwei knew about that foreign superpower user organization?
The matriarch shifted leisurely into another position, her long fingers tapping erratically on the table, which in the silent meeting room sounded particularly jarring.
She smiled slightly, “Then it wouldn’t hurt to share a piece of news with you all. New World was established twenty years ago by demonic cultivators from China. Oh, their original name was Demon Domain.”
Zhou Ming was aghast, “What?!”
Could it be that Bai Chuwei had more information than they did?
