Chapter 1226: Beautiful Music (23)
Ming Shu gave the answered paper to Fu Yubo.
Fu Yubo took a rude glimpse of it. Each question was detailedly answered.
He looked at Ming Shu with a complicated gaze.
“How did you make him so... terrified?” That expression should be terrified.
From when she got in to her overpowering the man, she really didn’t use any supernatural power.
Later she also didn’t display any aggressive behavior, but why was that man so scared?
Ming Shu said, as deep as a well, “Mathematics is frightening.”
“...”
Ming Shu moved past Fu Yubo and walked a distance away, then her voice sounded gradually. “Many people can resist physical pain, but some things are different from...”
There weren’t actually many people who didn’t fear death.
Some people said they feared no death, but it was only because they didn’t feel its threat.
Fu Yubo frowned slightly.
Zhuang Mengmeng showed her admiring expression. “Yinyin is so powerful.”
Fu Yubo gave her a look. “Have you finished your exercises?”
Zhuang Mengmeng: “...”
Mathematics drove people crazy!
Ming Shu walked out of the Supernatural Power Administration.
She unfolded another note in her hand.
There was only an address on it.
Ming Shu put away the note, looking up at the night sky with barely any stars. She took out a candy and put it in her mouth.
Cold drops of water hit the back of her hand.
“It’s raining.”
...
The Mountain and Sea Gang.
It was a supernatural power organization.
Its members did business like killing people, setting fires, kidnapping, and robbing.
Recently, there seemed to be something wrong with the Mountain and Sea Gang. They actually began to kill mutants and many were missing.
Her mission was to destroy such organizations.
Ming Shu turned over the wet hill path, trampling on dead branches and leaves. There were lights ahead, and some people were patrolling back and forth.
Beyond that was a villa perched on a hillside.
The entire mountain was the Mountain and Sea Gang’s turf.
Ming Shu got inside very smoothly, but...
She met Lu Zhan, who she hadn’t seen in a long time, on a remote corridor of the villa. Lu Zhan walked very casually and it didn’t look like he was sneaking in.
Ming Shu raised her eyebrows. “Are you not the head of Mountain and Sea Gang?”
Lu Zhan looked back, and the faint sound of footsteps came from nearby. He quickly pushed open a room and pulled Ming Shu in.
“Strange, did Lu Zhan come this way just now?”
“Alas, what do you think Brother Jie has taken a fancy to Lu Zhan for? He is very young...”
“Lu Zhan is good-looking. Our boss likes both men and women, you know that. Perhaps he is good in bed?”
Some ugly words came in from the outside.
The sound of several people’s footsteps passed along the corridor and gradually drifted away.
Hearing those words, Lu Zhan’s expression didn’t change much. He peered out through the curtain and his tone sounded cool when he spoke. “Why are you here?”
“Why can’t I be here?” Ming Shu leaned against the round sandalwood table in the room.
Lu Zhan: “Do you know what this place is?”
Ming Shu answered with a brisk voice. “The Mountain and Sea Gang’s nest.”
Lu Zhan frowned even deeper. She knew what this place was, yet dared come. Was she tired of her life?
“It’s very dangerous here.”
“If it’s not dangerous, why should I come, for a picnic?”
“...”
Lu Zhan got closer to her. “Leave quickly. Since you can get in, you must be able to get out. Don’t get involved in my business.”
“You focus on your business, I’ll focus on mine, and we won’t have conflict against each other.” Ming Shu tilted her head. “What do you say, Student Lu Zhan?”
Lu Zhan covered his entire person in the darkness while Ming Shu leaned againstthe round wooden table, light coming through the half-closed window curtain, delineating her outline clearly.
Clear and arrogant...
Right.
Arrogant!
She didn’t care a whit about her situation or where she was now.
Lu Zhan asked, “What do you want to do?”
Ming Shu looked outside. “Why should I tell you?”
Lu Zhan: “...”
...
The negotiations between Ming Shu and Lu Zhan ended soon. Someone outside was looking for Lu Zhan, so he couldn’t disappear for too long and could only leave in the end.
He had warned her.
He didn’t know what she came here for.
At this time, of course, Lu Zhan didn’t think she could do something big alone.
After Lu Zhan left, Ming Shu also left the room. She learned several important people’s names in the Mountain and Sea Gang first, in secret.
Brother Jie, who had some special relationship with Lu Zhan, was one of those people.
Ming Shu leaned against the wall and ate the candy, thinking about something.
“What are you doing, let go of me. You let go of me!”
A shrill sound rose from the corridor nearby. Ming Shu popped out her head and happened to see a pair of frightened eyes.
A man was being dragged by two other men toward the end of the corridor.
She didn’t see them walk past just now, so they should have come out of some room.
They entered the last room and the corridor became quiet again.
Ming Shu asked the Harmony System to handle the surveillance camera and then strode near that room. The sound insulation was good and she couldn’t hear anything.
Kacha—
The door was suddenly pulled open. Ming Shu came face to face with the people inside.
Ming Shu offered a smile. “Hi, good evening.”
The girl smiled like a flower, and her entire person was under a natural beauty filter. The people inside looked at her a little dumbfoundedly.
Before the man at the door reacted, Ming Shu lifted her foot and kicked him away.
There weren’t many people in the room. There was a total of only five people, including the one she just kicked inside as well as the one who was tied up on a standing operating table.
“Who are you!”
Someone shouted.
Ming Shu closed the door conveniently, picked up some stuff on one side, and threw it at the man who was trying to raise the alarm.
Two of the people had supernatural powers, but thanks to the good quality of the room, Ming Shu didn’t destroy it.
Ming Shu handled these people and tied them up, then untied the struggling youth.
The youth gasped. Feeling lucky that he survived a disaster, or perhaps touched that someone came to save him, the youth looked at Ming Shu with tearful eyes.
After waiting for a long time, the youth looked up at the girl before him again. “Are you also a mutant they caught?”
“No.” Ming Shu flashed a smile at him. “I’m just a normal person.”
The youth’s eyes widened.
Normal person?
No way!
Ming Shu looked around the room. It was empty, except for the place where the youth was tied up and some strange machines.
“What’s this?” Ming Shu asked the youth.
The youth was still immersed in the fact that Ming Shu said she was only a normal person. Hearing the question, he looked aside and said blankly a moment later, “I don’t know.”
“What’s the use of my saving you then?”
The youth: “...”
Ming Shu rested her eyes on one of the mutants. “Tell me, what’s this?”
The mutant: “...”
He expressed with his eyes that he wouldn’t tell her anything.
“You don’t want to talk?”
“Hmph!”
“Oh, fine, forget about it. I don’t want to know that bad.”
The mutant: “???”
He was ready to face the forces of evil and was determined never to surrender, but how come she didn’t ask anymore?
