Chapter 487 A Plot Twist Never Imagined
Special ops team…
From Qiu’s eyes, Chi Xiaocheng could tell the team’s worth.
If this was a team personally cultivated by Song Liyin, or that young lady, then these people were definitely not comparable to the riffraff like Chu Lingfeng.
Whether in games or reality, special operations tactical squads were extremely formidable existences.
Not to mention, these people were ancient martial arts practitioners!
Chi Xiaocheng’s heart sank a little.
But seeing Xiao Hei’s nonchalant expression, she suppressed the worry in her heart and asked, "Then what is the purpose of this team? To capture me? Or to kill me?"
Qiu shook his head. "Neither."
"Neither?"
"Yeah." Qiu nodded. "To be precise, it's to knock you unconscious in front of Miss Su, so that you passively fake your death at that moment, appearing to be killed, and then snatch your 'corpse' away in front of her."
"Huh?"
Her small eyes revealed great confusion.
Killing her directly would be one thing; a sudden attack was unpredictable.
But to make such elaborate moves for an attack?
However, the important thing wasn't this complex and cumbersome process.
It was the deeper meaning behind it.
The world's will wanting to kill her was certain, but the young lady seemed to want her to live.
Assuming she knew about her ability to reincarnate, and also knew that she was a "transmigrator," an outsider, and that she also knew about the existence of the world's will, did she want to chat with her before she died?
If that was the case, then the starting point was fine.
But why make her fake her death in front of Tao Tao?
Chi Xiaocheng continued to deduce in her mind.
What would Tao Tao do after she died?
She would collapse, and her character weight would inevitably decrease drastically.
Then what was the deeper meaning of snatching the corpse away in front of her?
To make her feel powerless, thereby exacerbating her collapse?
But there was no benefit in doing so!
The logic didn't add up at all.
As expected of a young lady descended from the heavens; her actions were completely incomprehensible.
Chi Xiaocheng rubbed her aching forehead, feeling exhausted from overthinking, and asked, "Then Qiu, what do you think their purpose is?"
Qiu scratched his head. "I don't even understand the relationship between you two, how am I supposed to guess their real purpose?"
Chi Xiaocheng rolled her eyes at him. "Then don't use your brain, just say what you think is most likely."
"If I had to say, because you're cuter?"
"Huh?"
Qiu counted on his fingers. "Look, I just speculated that they might be romantically involved, like the same gender, and now this kind of action, maybe it's because you're cuter and they want to snatch you away from Su Tao?"
"Um... Are they trying to alienate you and Su Tao in order to lower your affection for her, and then win you over?"
Listening to Qiu’s analysis, Chi Xiaocheng was dumbfounded.
She had thought of countless possibilities.
But this idea was one she had never considered.
As expected of a subordinate of Long Wang Xiao Ming?
With such talent, it was no wonder the Shura Hall could become so powerful abroad.
If she couldn't figure out the purpose, then there was no need to force it.
What she needed to do now was to figure out how to counterattack this special ops team's surprise attack and profit from it.
Chi Xiaocheng took a breath. "Tell me in detail about your special ops team's plan."
"Okay!"
Qiu was responsible for arranging this matter, and to show his loyalty, he told her everything he knew in detail.
Finally, considering that the head maid was still waiting for him and that she might become suspicious if he didn't return soon, he asked Chi Xiaocheng for an antidiarrheal medicine and planned to leave in a hurry.
But before leaving, Chi Xiaocheng stopped him. "Wait, how do I contact you if I need to?"
Qiu shook his head. "I don't know, I'll find a chance to find you, all my contact methods are monitored."
"Then wait a moment."
Chi Xiaocheng quickly entered the system store and searched for items.
Soon, she found a suit tie.
"System, you're sure that the world's will won't discover things created by emotion points, right?"
[Don't worry, Host, definitely not right now]
Then Chi Xiaocheng was relieved.
Qiu's undercover ability was strong, and she could develop this pawn further.
So, Chi Xiaocheng took two things and gave them to him.
"This tie is for communication, wear it when you're free, if you feel the tie getting hot, it means I need to find you, go to a place where there's no one and straighten the tie and pull it, it's high-tech, don't worry about being discovered."
The second thing she handed over was a watch.
"The same brand of watch as Conan, it can launch hallucinogenic needles, the needles are poisonous and have a slight hypnotic effect, I hope you use this to develop your own power with the head maid."
"Of course, just in case, here's a poison pill for you to take too."
Chi Xiaocheng was bleeding profusely this time.
The tie plus the watch cost her a full 800 emotion points.
The former cost 200, and the latter cost 600.
She believed Qiu knew what to do.
The emotion points she had saved up were slowly beginning to show their usefulness, if Qiu could really gain a foothold by the head maid's side, then Chi Xiaocheng would have one more layer of confidence in dealing with the world's will!
After saying goodbye to Qiu, Chi Xiaocheng jumped off the stone bench, looked at the pure white moonlight, and sighed again, "Special ops team... ambush on the way back from the banquet, and the location, on the only suburban road outside the city."
In a sense, the head maid was quite soft-hearted?
Deliberately avoiding all the bustling city areas along the way.
With melancholy thoughts in her heart, at that moment, Chi Xiaocheng's phone rang.
It was a message from Su Tao, but to her surprise, Su Tao's message was actually on the Cheng Cheng account.
It had been quite a while since she had contacted her on this account.
The last chat was during the holidays, a routine chat and then nothing further.
Chi Xiaocheng clicked on the message.
Taozi: "Cheng Cheng, I'm a little confused, can we have a video chat, you can scold me too."
Video chat...
Her mimicry and disguise skills were still usable, but she really couldn't have a video chat at this time.
The recognizability of this garden was too high, and it would be easy to expose herself.
So Chi Xiaocheng replied as usual, while walking out of the garden. "Sorry, my roommates are all asleep, a video would wake them up."
Cheng Cheng: "What, did you and your Xiaocheng quarrel again?"
Taozi: "You still understand me, I feel like Xiaocheng doesn't like me anymore."
Cheng Cheng: "Is there something wrong with your feelings, isn't she a yandere, how could a yandere not like you?"
Taozi: "But her memory, it seems like it really hasn't recovered!"
Cheng Cheng: "???"
Cheng Cheng: "Here you go again?"
Using a tone completely unlike her own, she constantly enlightened Su Tao, who was gradually moving towards extremes due to the influence of the world's will.
Chi Xiaocheng chatted all the way, and walked out of the garden.
But as soon as she walked out of the path, she saw Su Tao sitting on a stone bench on the other side.
The girl seemed to be waiting for her here.
