Chapter 741 Is It Them… (3k)
Bairnis’s words were like a bombshell dropped into Su Jiu’s heart. She looked at the priest girl in front of her, placed her hands on the other’s shoulders, and asked word by word:
“Little Sisi, are you sure that person is from the Ancient God Sect?”
Little Yezi felt the seriousness of Su Jiu and dared not speak for a moment. Instead, she looked back and forth between their faces, hugging Bairnis’s waist tighter.
“Not sure, after all, the cross is not only used by the Ancient God Sect, and he was only wearing ordinary clothes, but…”
Gently patting Little Yezi’s head, Bairnis first shook her head, then turned to the place where the fire occurred, and slowly extended her arm.
“But?”
Su Jiu was stunned, but saw a smile suddenly appear on Bairnis’s face. As she reached out, a blue butterfly suddenly emerged from her palm.
“When I fought that person, a residual butterfly fell on him. Although it was erased later, I knew its general direction.”
Gently putting Little Yezi down, the blue butterfly on Bairnis’s hand suddenly floated up, then landed in the center of the three, flying in mid-air, its head pointing towards the inside of the city, as if waiting for orders.
Giving Bairnis a “thumbs up” gesture, Su Jiu looked at the butterfly and then in the direction it was pointing, sighing slightly, “Little Sisi is still reliable, doing something that so many people couldn’t do so easily…”
“Miss, the butterfly can sense that it’s an abandoned factory, but why would the other party wait until after reaching the factory to take it off?”
Bairnis shook her head again and continued, her mind filled with some doubt. She was not as naive and sweet as she appeared; in fact, she could even be considered meticulous.
“Maybe they only discovered it after arriving there?”
Hearing this, Su Jiu glanced at her. Although she answered casually, she kept this in mind. After all, if Bairnis was right, it was very likely that a misleading piece of information was being provided.
“If we go alone, we might alert the snake. I don’t know if they have hostages. Let’s notify Sister Youyou and the others first.”
After saying that, Su Jiu reached for her phone on her lower back and called Yan Youyou, explaining the discovery to Ren and Youyou on the other end of the phone.
When they heard “White Crow” mask on the phone, they remained silent for a while. For some reason, Youyou’s voice was eventually replaced by Ren’s, hoarse and low:
“Little Jiu, don’t tell anyone else about this. Send us the location, we’ll be right there.”
“Uncle Ren, don’t worry, I haven’t told anyone else.”
Hearing this, Su Jiu didn’t ask why. She understood that Ren wouldn’t harm her and had already guessed the reason. This might really be related to the Senior Brother she had never met.
She immediately sent a location to Ren’s end.
Ren simply said in a low voice, “Thank you, I’ll treat you to a meal next time.”
Even though Ren was cold, he harbored some secrets and unpleasant past experiences that he wanted to deal with privately.
Su Jiu smiled, “It’s a small matter.”
“Miss Bai, the car key is right here. After Little Yu is done, you and he can take Little Yezi back to the bar first. We’ll deal with the injured here.”
After a few more words, Su Jiu hung up the phone and waved to Bai Linlin, who was following behind her. Bai Linlin opened her mouth:
“But…”
She had just heard some of their conversation – there were clues about a serial killer.
Something like this would be a great achievement if reported.
Frowning, Su Jiu looked up, her blood-red eyes, somewhat terrifying in the night, stared directly, as if piercing through the darkness to reach people’s hearts:
“Sister Youyou will take over your role as instructor. Miss Bai, it’s not safe here. You should go back soon.”
Bai Linlin still wanted to say something, but due to Su Jiu’s rank, she chose to remain silent. She walked towards the Chevrolet, but took out her phone and scrolled through it, finding the number of [Grand Commander of Dragon Hunters]…
“White Crow Mask, it’s them…”
The screen light illuminated a gloomy face. As the light scattered across various parts of her face, a sense of longing emerged. This was a good achievement.
For her, a Night Watcher from the bottom with no background, it was very useful.
“The bad guys are gone to do their own thing again, they never take me…”
As the figure gradually moved away, Little Yezi kicked her canvas shoes and pouted. She knew her father was going to be busy again…
“…”
Hearing this, Su Jiu showed a trace of guilt, but she rubbed Little Yezi’s head, half-squatted, and then placed her hands on her black silk thighs, saying softly, “When we get back later, take a nap, and let your Uncle Xiao Yu take you to the amusement park, okay?”
She had given the child a top-tier alchemical amulet, and with Lao Di accompanying her, as long as she didn’t run around, nothing would happen.
“Got it…”
Pouting, Little Yezi also ran towards Bai Linlin. The phone hanging around her neck swung back and forth. She looked small and quite cute.
Then, after a few steps, she turned back.
Su Jiu blinked, not understanding what the little mischievous child was up to now.
Under the gaze of Su Jiu and Bai Linlin, Little Yezi took out a few small, broken magic crystals from her pocket and handed them over, saying awkwardly, “I found these by the sea, for you…”
“You can keep them. There’s no need to give these magic crystals to me.”
Su Jiu was stunned, looking at the few broken magic crystals in her small hand. Little Yezi was not yet at the War General level. These magic crystals were most likely dropped by her after killing some advanced stage warrior monsters.
Because the drop rate was quite low, they should be quite precious to her daughter.
“Fatty said that Dad always goes out to work hard so that there will be more delicious food in the future, and Little Yezi can go out and play every day.”
Taking a few steps forward, Little Yezi’s cheeks were puffed out, just like her mother, but she looked at the other side proudly, “One or two of them are for Sister E Huo. Dad, don’t be greedy.”
Saying that, she stuffed the magic crystals into Su Jiu’s pocket as if flying and then ran towards the Chevrolet.
“Run slower…”
Looking at the little retreating figure, Su Jiu’s lips couldn’t help but curve. She closed her eyes slightly, reached into her pocket, and felt the cold touch of the broken magic crystals, which inexplicably made her feel warm.
Aman’s education wasn’t as bad as she thought.
“Miss, Little Yezi is actually very well-behaved. Her healing skills are even better than many high school students,” Bairnis explained while healing the patients behind Su Jiu. But seeing the smile on Su Jiu’s lips, she couldn’t help but smile slightly.
When Miss is happy, she is happy. After all, she is Miss’s sickle, and Miss is the only light that shines into her heart.
Her love for Little Yezi was more of a love that extended to everything related to Su Jiu.
“Let her play for a few more decades. There are too many cruel things in this world, and I don’t want her to see them so soon.”
Hearing this, Su Jiu also smiled, withdrew her gaze, and looked at Guan Xiaorong, the high school girl who had been standing beside them silently.
“This sister…”
As if noticing Su Jiu’s gaze, the girl slowly looked up, a hint of panic on her face. She suddenly grabbed Su Jiu’s sleeve and muttered, “Are you from the organization? He will definitely come to find me again!”
“Don’t worry, we will resolve the issue as soon as possible. Until then, we will stay with you.”
Su Jiu patted her hand. She planned to take this student with her. If they failed to catch the killer this time, they could only wait for his second visit.
Under the streetlights, the injuries of the crowd were slowly healed by Bairnis. As grateful voices sounded, the crowd gradually dispersed, and it was no longer so crowded.
A Dragon Hunter finished taking witness statements and then left. In the deep night, the roadside pavilion appeared somewhat lonely.
“Whoosh—”
Ren and Youyou’s speed was not too slow. As they were chatting, a completely black Buick whizzed by on the roadside. As it approached the side, it slowly slowed down.
“You guys get in first!”
As the window on this side slid down, two figures in executive jackets appeared, Yan Youyou and Ren. Judging by their attire, they seemed to have just come from a meeting.
Without further ado, Su Jiu got into the back seat with the two. As soon as she got in, the car was filled with the smell of cigarettes, like a smoke-filled plaza.
Following the source of the smell, Su Jiu looked at the ashtray next to the passenger seat and saw the signs of several half-smoked cigarettes being extinguished, indicating that the owner was very agitated.
“Youyou, it’s in a leather factory in the western suburbs.”
At this moment, Bairnis also reported the location to Yan Youyou, who was holding the steering wheel.
“Got it! Buckle up, I only pay for speeding tickets.”
Laughing, Yan Youyou turned the steering wheel. The magically modified car turned easily. At the same time, blue flames ignited from the exhaust pipe, and the car shot forward violently.
The immense force pushed Su Jiu and the other two back, and then they were thrown forward. The next moment, a faint external Qi emerged from the car, stabilizing it. Flames ignited in front, and the smell of smoke wafted into everyone’s noses.
“Are you sure, that person was wearing the White Crow Mask?”
Ren’s voice sounded with a sigh.
“Uncle, that’s right, and that person is very likely a member of the Ancient God Sect.”
Su Jiu responded, seeing his somewhat somber face in the rearview mirror. Although Youyou had applied light makeup to her, she still looked very dejected.
“Heh heh, it’s them…”
Ren chuckled, his laughter somewhat dry. He turned his head to look at the streetlights outside the window, and his dark eyes seemed to flash with some unpleasant memories.
“Them?”
Hearing this, Su Jiu repeated the question. Did more than just the Senior Brother defect?
“After that night, she had a huge argument with the old man. Tong not only left by herself, but also took her direct subordinates with her. As the Elder stationed in Fuzhou, the Senior Brother had one elder and five elite Night Watcher confidantes…”
Sighing, Youyou glanced at Ren beside her and didn’t hide anything. Passing through the streetlights one by one, she recounted the past in detail.
“And after they defected, they traveled the world, engaging in those gray businesses, wearing that White Crow Mask.”
This was a shameful thing for the Night Watchers. Taking people to defect, and to the Ancient God Sect, was a past that the tavern was unwilling to mention…
