Qu Peiya's cries echoed in the laboratory. Her face was wrinkled and her eyes were red. Her tears couldn't stop flowing.
Admittedly, this girl wasn't that beautiful, but when she cried, she looked so pitiful that people would feel pity for her.
However, the two people sitting in front of the table were obviously not men who had tender feelings for the fairer sex. As the leader of the twelfth special guard team, Ji Zhou, although he had a reputation for being a playboy, he was cold and ruthless when it came to business.
As for Hayashi River, he wasn't the real him, but the Phantom of the Void Bones in disguise.
If it wasn't for the fact that this female thief was a little strange, Hayashi River wouldn't have bothered to come here. There wasn't anything valuable in this building.
Not long ago, Ji Zhou rented this building and renovated it. He hadn't even started to set up his personal mechanical workshop when it was seized by the administration.
The two of them lowered their heads and looked at the documents. They didn't even raise their heads to look at Qu Peiya.
Qu Peiya couldn't cry anymore. She looked up at Ji Zhou and Hayashi River and started to think about the current situation.
In fact, when the fear faded, she already knew that there was no danger in the current situation.
This was her unique intuition. Although the two people in front of her were dangerous, they didn't have much evil intentions towards her.
"Why? Stop crying. "
Ji Zhou took a document and said, "Qu Peiya, a third-year student from Nan Luo Military Academy. First in the grade for first-year, first in the city for second-year, and top five in the province for third-year."
Flipping through the document, Ji Zhou smiled and said, "I'll be very disappointed if a military genius like you only knows how to cry. Tell me what's going on … "
Qu Peiya was silent for a while. She looked at Ji Zhou and then at Hayashi River, trying to figure out their identity and how to answer.
She knew Ji Zhou. He was the leader of the twelfth special guard team on the list of elites in Nan Luo City.
Even if there were rumors that Ji Zhou was a playboy, it didn't stop many girls from liking him.
He was handsome, young, and promising. He was the representative of this generation of the Ji Family …
Just these labels alone were enough to make countless young girls fall in love.
Ji Zhou's status in Nanluo City could be considered a big shot, but the captain of the special forces was obviously very respectful towards the young mechanic.
This meant that this young man's status was above Ji Zhou's. Who could it be?
A Mechanic, even a genius Mechanic, would not be able to receive such respect from the Special Forces Garrison Captain. Did this mean that this person's identity was not ordinary?
While Qu Peiya was lost in her thoughts, Hayashi River raised his head and said, "Don't think too much. Tell me why you are here. Give us a reason why we should let you go. "
Qu Peiya was shocked and immediately said, "I … I broke in by mistake."
"Captain Ji, I know you too. You're very famous in our military academy."
Hayashi River lowered his head and didn't say anything else. This kind of interrogation work was naturally left to a professional like Ji Zhou.
"Then why did you break in by mistake?" Ji Zhou asked.
"I was being chased and was about to seek shelter at the garrison, but I broke in by mistake."
Qu Peiya didn't hide anything and explained why she was on the run. She had encountered something at the military academy's office that night and felt that she was in danger, so she quietly escaped from the academy.
Ran into something?!
Hayashi River and Ji Zhou looked at each other. The latter raised his hand and stopped Qu Peiya from continuing.
Encountered something at the military academy and escaped. This was a little tricky. It was very likely to be a military secret.
"Captain Ji. Do you need me to step aside? "Hayashi River said.
"This student from the military academy broke into your territory. According to the rules, Mr. Lin, you have the right to know everything."
Ji Zhou smiled and waved his hand to show that he was close.
A few days ago, because of Nanluo City's military's unauthorized actions, the garrison and Nanluo City's military hated each other and were thinking of ways to disgust each other.
Hayashi River nodded slightly and glanced at Qu Peiya. He noticed that there was a strange aura around this girl.
However, his real body wasn't here, and the [Phantom Bone Shadow] alone wasn't that sharp in terms of insight.
"Tell me, what did you see at the military academy that you need to seek shelter at the garrison?"
Ji Zhou raised his chin slightly and revealed a smile, indicating that the girl shouldn't be too flustered and that she should think things through first.
Qu Peiya's face froze. Her lips moved and she hesitated for a while before saying, "I was in the academic building. I saw the dean and a girl doing that in the classroom …"
Hayashi River suddenly raised his head and looked at Ji Zhou. Both of them were men, so they naturally understood what Qu Peiya was talking about.
They looked at Qu Peiya with a faint smile that was full of ridicule.
"I … I'm telling the truth …" Qu Peiya said loudly.
Ji Zhou rubbed his forehead. He felt that his intelligence was insulted. Did this girl think he was an idiot?
Just because she saw this, Qu Peiya would be hunted down. Even if it was the daughter of a duke who was in cahoots with the dean, it wouldn't be like this.
"Qu Peiya, do you know who's after you?" Ji Zhou's mouth twitched as he asked.
Qu Peiya shook her head. She only felt that she was in danger, but she didn't know who was after her.
"It's the military's Night Snakes."
Hearing the words "Night Snakes," Qu Peiya's face instantly turned pale. As a student of the military academy, she obviously knew what this meant.
The military's secret unit was mainly responsible for detection, infiltration, and other intelligence work.
The Night Snakes were in charge of assassination work.
Both of them had similar positions, and were the two sharp knives of the military.
Qu Peiya couldn't believe that the Night Snakes would come after her.
"You better tell me the truth. Otherwise, I'll throw you out. Those Night Snakes should still be outside, "Ji Zhou said with a slight frown.
"I'm telling the truth. I'm not lying …"
Qu Peiya cried again. She realized the seriousness of the matter, but she couldn't figure it out.
Originally, when she saw the dean fooling around with a pretty girl from the next class, she felt a sense of crisis after she left quietly. This matter puzzled her.
Now, it was the Night Snakes who were after her. Qu Peiya was about to break down.
Buzz!
At this moment, Ji Zhou's communicator rang. After picking it up, he listened for a while and his expression changed.
"The dean of the military academy and a girl are dead …"
Ji Zhou looked at Hayashi River and told him this shocking news.
Qu Peiya's crying stopped. She was scared out of her wits and shouted, "I didn't kill them!"
"I know it wasn't you. These two just died." Ji Zhou curled his lips.
"That's strange …" Hayashi River murmured.
The two looked at each other. Although this matter was strange, the military had sent the Night Snakes to kill Qu Peiya. This meant that what happened next was not a small matter.
Ji Zhou smiled. His shoulders trembled uncontrollably. He could smell the scent of credit.
Now that the garrison was at odds with Nanluo City's military, as long as they could make an issue out of it and dig out some shocking information, they would definitely be rewarded.
Touching the silver cross on his epaulet, Ji Zhou felt that he might be promoted again in a few years' time.
Then, Hayashi River pressed a button and released Qu Peiya.
"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir. "
Qu Peiya bowed to the two, acting very obediently.
"Mr. Lin. Why don't we leave her here? "Ji Zhou asked.
Seeing Qu Peiya's expression change, Ji Zhou said, "This place is safer than the garrison's shelter."
Qu Peiya didn't dare to speak. She was panicking when she thought of that furry thing when she fainted.
"Then you can stay here with me."
Hayashi River nodded and glanced at Qu Peiya. "The factories next door are actually better hiding than here. Why did you choose here?"
"I … I just thought it was safer here …" Qu Peiya lowered her head and replied.
Meow …
The Blue Kitty scurried over and raised its head. It stared at the big-faced girl and meowed softly.
"What a cute kitty!"
Qu Peiya raised her hand, wanting to touch the little guy, but her body trembled. She didn't know why, but she felt something was wrong. She couldn't put down her hand.
"What's going on? I'm clearly a cat lover … "
Intuition?
Hayashi River looked at the girl and didn't say anything.
…
At the same time.
Nanluo City's military base, a roar came from an office.
"Escaped? How could the target escape? How could the tracking ability of your Night Snakes let a student from a military school escape? "
A senior colonel stared coldly at the Night Snakes member in front of him.
"Senior Colonel Yoo, the target didn't escape. She escaped here …"
The Night Snakes member saluted and gave an address.
Hearing this, Senior Colonel Yoo's expression changed. He said in a low voice, "How did she get there?"
The Night Snakes member reported, "The target probably wanted to seek shelter at the garrison. It's the closest route. It should be a coincidence."
Bang!
Senior Colonel Yoo slammed his fist on the table. His expression was gloomy. "Whether it's a coincidence or not, we can't act rashly once we're there."
"Senior Colonel Yoo. According to our observations, the target probably doesn't know anything. "
"Whether she knows or not, we have to eliminate anyone who has anything to do with this."
Senior Colonel Yoo gritted his teeth. "Don't worry about the target for now. We'll talk about it after this period is over."
"Yes!" The Night Snakes member saluted and left.
Senior Colonel Yoo walked to the window and looked at the night sky. He gritted his teeth and said, "This time, that woman from the Black Net really screwed us over!"
At the same time.
Nanluo City, Black Net's base.
Lady Glimmer was humming a beautiful tune. Her graceful figure swayed as she opened the safe and put something inside.
She patted the small box and smiled. Her smile was seductive under the light.
"I didn't expect to have such a harvest tonight. Looks like the unfavorable days are coming to an end. Good luck should come next … "
