Chapter 80 00080
80 Chapter - Classic Villain Thinking!
Ye Yao ultimately chose the room next to Wu Mi’s.
She even locked the door before sleeping to prevent Xia Lian from sneaking in.
Although this was a bit like burying one's head in the sand and naturally wouldn't stop an A-rank Esper.
Still, Xia Lian, by all accounts, shouldn't damage the lock.
After doing all this, Ye Yao lay down contentedly.
Thus began her first night at the Sequence Zero secret base.
The next morning.
Ye Yao woke up in Mo Qiuli's room.
She turned her head and found a certain black-haired loli clinging to her like an octopus.
Luo Jianhua's sleeping posture would naturally not be so “unrestrained.”
It was undoubtedly Mo Qiuli.
“?”
Question marks appeared above Ye Yao's head.
She looked at where she had slept.
It was on a makeshift bed on the floor, that was correct.
Last night, Mo Qiuli should have been sleeping on the bed.
So why was she next to her?
At this moment, Luo Jianhua, who was also sleeping close to Ye Yao, slowly opened her eyes.
Upon seeing the white-haired girl beside her wake up, she greeted her with a smile.
“Good morning, Big Sister. You woke up very early today. You're amazing.”
“Hmm, good morning to you too. I'm a little curious, why is this black-haired octopus on me?”
Ye Yao was completely bewildered.
Luo Jianhua stared at Mo Qiuli, who was tightly hugging Ye Yao, with a somewhat helpless expression.
“Last night, Xiao Mo was sleeping soundly on the bed, but in the middle of the night, she inexplicably rolled off and then ended up sleeping next to Big Sister.”
“Then she might as well have slept on the floor from the beginning; it would have been more comfortable.”
Ye Yao grumbled, then shook Mo Qiuli awake.
“Wake up, you little lazy pig.”
Mo Qiuli quickly let out a groggy sound.
“Almost… almost victorious. This is the Magical Girl's final battle; I absolutely cannot give up…”
She was still talking in her sleep!
Ye Yao pinched Mo Qiuli's cheek, not indulging her in the slightest.
“Stop sleeping for a bit; I need to ask you something.”
Mo Qiuli opened her eyes, her tone full of regret.
“My beautiful dream is shattered…”
Then, looking at Ye Yao beside her, she realized she was hugging her and quickly let go.
“S-sorry! Sometimes I don't sleep soundly. Did I disturb Ye Yao?”
“No, not at all.”
Ye Yao mused that she had slept quite soundly last night.
She hadn't been disturbed in the slightest.
Presumably, this was her innate talent for sleeping.
Ye Yao adjusted her pajamas and asked, “What happened afterward last night? How did you deal with the Countermeasure Bureau people?”
“Ugh, I just told them what happened. I definitely didn't expose the existence of Ye Yao and Xiao Luo. I just said I encountered a bad guy by myself.”
Mo Qiuli recalled yesterday's events.
Her expression was a bit dejected.
After explaining the situation to the adults at the Countermeasure Bureau, she was, as expected, reprimanded.
After all, Magical Girl activities were inherently against the rules.
It was perfectly reasonable for Mo Qiuli to be scolded after encountering an accident.
Anyway, she was just a piece of cotton; she would just softly accept being kicked.
Being scolded was fine.
Mo Qiuli was already a prime example of “knowing her mistakes but not correcting them.”
After learning the situation, the adults told her to return and await further investigation.
She was probably going to be “grounded” again in the end.
“Oh~ So you didn't expose us, that's really good.”
Ye Yao read in a flat tone.
Great Fortune saw everything clearly from above.
How could it not know?
It was just playing along.
She just didn't know if Lou Wei had dismembered that bad guy immediately.
She hoped not.
It wasn't too late to at least extract some information before killing him.
She should find out when she got back.
The morning passed quickly.
Ye Yao and Luo Jianhua had breakfast at Mo Qiuli's house.
The food was very good.
Her aunt was a very virtuous mother.
Compared to Wu Mi's mother, it was like night and day.
Afterward, Ye Yao and Luo Jianhua returned to the residential area.
Mo Qiuli didn't follow.
According to her, she had to elaborate on more details to the Countermeasure Bureau.
In short, she probably wouldn't be able to visit today.
Back in the living room at home.
She turned her head and saw Strict Father still sitting on the sofa, reading the newspaper.
He probably just flew in from the balcony outside.
Ye Yao couldn't help but feel a little awkward, imagining Lou Wei pretending to pick up the newspaper and feigning nonchalance the moment she stepped through the door.
It seemed the distance between them wasn't as great anymore.
“We're back.”
Xiao Jing came forward and patted both girls' heads.
“Have you had breakfast?”
“Yes, we ate ✪ Nоvеlіgһt ✪ (Official version) over there.”
Ye Yao looked around curiously and asked, “Have Uncle and Auntie gone back?”
“Not yet. They said they'd changed their plans and would go back this afternoon. They'll come by to say goodbye later.”
These two had pretty much wasted their efforts.
They had guarded all night, and nothing happened.
Fang Ze and Cheng Muxue had drunk the northwest wind all night.
Lou Wei, at least, caught a clown.
He had basically won big.
“Sit down and rest first. I'll pour you some water. You must be tired from the journey.”
Xiao Jing's gentle voice reached her ears.
In Ye Yao's mind, she once again mentally flogged Wu Mi's mother.
Why was the difference between people so vast?
Ye Yao then pulled Luo Jianhua to sit on the sofa, not immediately returning to her room.
How was she going to subtly extract information from Lou Wei?
First, she wanted to see what was going on with that clown from last night.
She hoped that he would at least be squeezed dry of his remaining value before being killed by Great Fortune.
【Lou Wei is currently pondering last night's incident. According to the Countermeasure Bureau's interrogation, the individual came from an organization composed of Sequence Espers. Their search for Black Mist Espers was solely for recruitment or hunting.】
【However, the individual was not a core member and did not know the true hiding place, making it impossible to raid their stronghold.】
【At the same time, this somewhat relieved Lou Wei, as yesterday's incident was not directed at you but occurred due to a coincidental twist of fate.】
Ye Yao was speechless.
No.
Was it unrelated to her?
That was true, but also not true.
That guy had inadvertently achieved something.
But what Ye Yao hadn't expected was that the organization wasn't looking for her to avenge the Flame Demon?
The idea of recruiting her was a bit mysterious.
As for the “hunting” option... classic villain thinking!
What kind of intelligence was this?
They still dared to send an ordinary A-rank Esper to hunt her.
Was it just because she had only displayed less than A-rank mental power at the time?
No.
She had to get even now.
She hoped Mu Luo could find information about them when he returned.
She wanted to see if she could turn the tables.
Ye Yao secretly made up her mind.
At this moment, footsteps sounded from the doorway.
“Ye Yao, we're getting ready to leave. We came to see you before we go.”
Ye Yao turned to look.
The arrivals were Cheng Muxue and Fang Ze.
These two S-rank big suckers!
Drinking the northwest wind for several nights with nothing happening was truly something else.
At this moment, Ye Yao remembered something.
She hadn't harvested the attribute points from Uncle and Auntie yet.
Fang Ze was a bit tricky.
He was truly just there to pretend to be an uncle, not even having much interaction, completely a career man's mindset.
The system hadn't even found any attribute point missions from him yet.
As for Cheng Muxue, that was easier.
Couldn't she learn a little secret through their heart-to-heart connection?
Ye Yao already had an idea in mind.
