Chapter: Chapter 136
Beep beep, beep beep.
The phone on the coffee table vibrated, alerting Leticia that she had a call.
“Who would call me?” Leticia picked up her phone, puzzled, and saw it was from the express company.
Huh? Did she buy something online again?
Probably not?
Answering the call, Leticia heard a somewhat familiar voice, “Hello, is this Miss Su?”
It was the voice of the delivery person for her area.
“Mhm, it’s me.”
“You have a package, I’ve left it in the locker at the entrance of the residential area,” the delivery person told Leticia.
Huh? There really is a package?
“But I don’t remember buying anything.”
“I don’t know about that, I just delivered the item.”
After hanging up the phone, Leticia thought about who would send her something. She didn’t have any friends in the human world.
If Bai Ling were to send her something, she definitely wouldn’t use express delivery.
The Leader wouldn’t either.
Besides these two, Leticia couldn’t think of anyone else who would send her something.
“Xue’er, I have a package, go get it for me!” Leticia called out into the air.
Hearing Leticia’s voice, Xue’er immediately came out from a corner. “Package?”
“Mhm, I don’t know who sent it. Xue’er, have someone bring it to me,” Leticia nodded. “It’ll be good to get those two squatting below moving too.” If what was sent was something dangerous, Leticia wouldn’t feel bad if those two Heavenly Kings got hurt.
Xue’er indicated she understood. “Okay.”
…
“Are you sure this method will work? What if she asks someone else to pick it up?”
Facing the entrance of the residential area where Leticia lived, two mysterious figures, bundled up tightly even in broad daylight, were squatting in the grass, their eyes fixed on the package locker at the entrance of the residential area.
“Then we’re in trouble. We just have to watch here. If it’s not that Su Qianqian who comes, then report to the divine envoy… Speaking of which, I don’t seem to have the divine envoy’s contact information.” The short, black-clothed person felt that as an employee, she shouldn’t worry about such things. It was the divine envoy who would act, not them.
“Then we’re screwed, aren’t we?” the taller black-clothed person was a bit confused.
“Whatever, I’ll run away when the bomb explodes. I believe the divine envoy can handle it.” The short, black-clothed person giggled. She only wanted to make a bomb and watch it explode. As for anything else? She didn’t care.
After a while, they saw a petite, black-haired girl holding a piece of paper walking out of the residential area.
“Black hair, petite, is it her?”
“No, Su Qianqian is cuter,” the taller black-clothed person shook her head. This black-haired girl, perhaps she was Su Qianqian’s subordinate? As expected, Su Qianqian had others protecting her.
“Look, she’s going to pick it up.” Watching the girl walk to the parcel locker, the short, black-clothed person became increasingly excited. “Explode or not, explode or not?”
“Didn’t you set a stun grenade?” the taller black-clothed person was confused. Why was this person acting so strangely?
The divine envoy was currently hiding nearby. Once the bomb exploded and stunned the person, the divine envoy would rush out with lightning speed and abduct the person. This plan seemed a bit too simple, but the divine envoy felt it was a good idea. The more complicated the plan, the more likely strange problems would arise. The simpler the plan, the faster it would be executed. Even if there was a small mistake, the divine envoy felt she could control the situation.
“We can capture her first and then use her to threaten Su Qianqian,” the taller black-clothed person whispered. “Su Qianqian is quite soft-hearted and wouldn’t watch her subordinate die.”
So, let it explode.
The black-haired girl walked to the parcel locker, entered the password, and took out a gray package. The moment she touched the package, it suddenly shattered, and a bright light caused her to fall into a brief daze.
The moment the light erupted, the divine envoy, dressed in a black coat, appeared in front of the girl and reached out to grab and take her away.
But her plan was foiled. A fiery red barrier suddenly appeared on the girl, rendering her actions completely meaningless.
“Magic barrier? Are you a demon?” The divine envoy retracted her hand. After touching the magic barrier, she realized that she probably couldn’t break through this barrier in a short amount of time. She felt her hand was really hurting, as if she had held a scorching hot baked sweet potato for more than ten seconds.
The effect of the stun grenade didn’t last long, and the girl quickly regained consciousness. She glared vigilantly at the black-clothed person in front of her. “It’s a trap, as expected. I advise you to surrender obediently, or you’ll have a hard time.”
“With you alone, you can’t keep me.” Although the plan had a slight hitch, the divine envoy was still full of confidence. She couldn’t deal with this demon in a short time, but she could still escape. If necessary, she would find another opportunity. Although after this incident, the other party would definitely be more vigilant, and it would be even harder to succeed. But it wasn’t without reward. At least she knew that Su Qianqian had a connection with demons, giving her some room to maneuver.
“She alone isn’t enough, so can you be kept if I add myself?” Another voice rang out. A handsome, black-haired older sister descended from the sky, blocking the divine envoy’s escape route.
The divine envoy narrowed her eyes. These two demons were very strong. In a frontal confrontation, she probably wouldn’t be a match for either of them. If she ran, it might also take some effort to escape. Moreover, although the pedestrian traffic here was light, there were still pedestrians passing by. If these two demons dared to fight her here, the divine envoy felt they would be dealt with by the Hero Association first.
The three stood in this stalemate for about ten minutes, neither daring to make the first move. The passersby, upon seeing what was happening, wisely kept their distance. While such things were not uncommon in Central City, people weren’t surprised. It’s just two heroes blocking a villain and now facing off because they’re afraid of affecting the surroundings, right? Ah, as residents of Central City, everyone understands.
“So, you plan to stall me like this?” the divine envoy raised her eyebrows. This was too boring. Although it was indeed a bit difficult for her. If they fought, she would have a chance to escape, but now that both sides were in a fully focused state, the chance of her escaping directly was slim.
“We’re waiting for reinforcements, Miss Mouse in black.” The Demon King, accompanied by Xue’er, walked out. She glanced at the black-clothed person. This person’s strength was only around the level of an A-class hero, which in Leticia’s view, was a complete weakling. This should be the one who launched the attack, but she didn’t know who she was.
