Chapter 166 - Master Yu Asks: Where Are You?
Actually, Qing Zi could not be faulted for her way of thinking.
The International Association had always been a place usually closed to commoners. It was complicated to get a spot here in the first place.
In Qing Zi’s mind, the three of them had come to the International Association just to study. The gulf between them and the locals was just too wide. It would do them no good to cross the locals.
A native of the International Association, even if she was just an average person—she was not someone the three of them could afford to offend.
Not to mention these were people from the International Association’s military base.
Su Huiqing allowed Qing Zi to drag her aside, and good-naturedly listened to her advice. She was much taller than Qing Zi, and she just stood by the door with gently lowered eyelids and relaxed brows.
Her cell phone vibrated.
It was a message from Apollo: King, I have arrived.
“What’s the matter?” Qu Yan raised her brows.
Su Huiqing shook her head slowly, as her eyes swept across the group.
Her gaze finally landed on the white ribbon around their wrists.
After a long while, she finally lowered her eyes and called Apollo back on the phone.
She casually replied Qu Yan, “I am fine.”
Her eyes were completely dark.
How could she fail to remember?
The fourth of November.
The day of her death.
One of the white-uniformed people, a youth with dark blue eyes suddenly halted.
“Class monitor?” One of the guys beside him asked.
Mo Qiu turned his eyes away from the trio. “Nothing, let’s go.”
Outside the school gates.
Apollo stood there in all his golden-haired glory. A silver car was parked behind him.
If it was in Green City, his flamboyant manner would have been a rare sight. But in the cosmopolitan and diversified world of the International Association, he was not as outstanding. Nevertheless, he still attracted some sideways glances.
“King, I don’t see you anywhere?” He placed his phone by his ear as he scanned the pedestrians passing by.
Su Huiqing hung up the phone and called out, “Look behind you.”
“Let’s find a place to talk.” Su Huiqing indicated toward Qu Yan and Qing Zi. “These are my roommates.”
“Let’s go to the Night Bar. There is no safer place in the International Association than Dugu’s.” Apollo smirked wickedly. “He has been tracking down news on you, right? Let’s see if he can recognize you today.”
Su Huiqing casually placed her hand on the car window. She had no opinion.
The primary base of the Number One Intelligence Agency was indeed very safe.
As for Dugu investigating her, she was not all concerned.
The people in the Demon Concentration Camp were all brilliant and talented. She never tried to change her own style on purpose, but not everyone could guess her identity.
After all, it was a staggering revelation for someone to be reborn after death.
Basically, no one would ever imagine this to be possible.
She would be in danger if those people in the Su Family found out.
She could not assume the identity of Su S for the moment. She had to wait until she could regain that position.
Meanwhile…
The Yu Family at the International Association.
Yu Hongchang stood at the entrance of the training grounds, watching that aloof figure strolling out. He couldn’t help muttering to the person beside him. “I thought he would have taken at least three years. I never expected him to come out in just one year.”
This god-given talent. It was indeed exceptional.
The Yu Family Head was also deep in thought. “He is a holder of the purple-tinted gold orchid badge after all… oh yes, the Dugu Family sent us an invitation today. Should we have Master Yu go tomorrow as well?”
“Of course he must go.” Yu Hongchang waved magnanimously. “I wonder what will happen if the International Association’s number one Song San faces off with Shijin?”
It was about time the Yu Family’s successor made his debut.
Yu Shijin arrived by their side then.
He glanced down at his cell phone, his eyes cold and distant. “I am not going.”
“Huh?” Yu Hongchang was shocked. “Why not? It’s a good opportunity for you to make your debut.”
“I have something on.” Yu Shijin shoved his hands into his pockets and leisurely walked off. “I need to take a two-week holiday.”
Yu Hongchang was still rooted to the ground. “…”
Chief detective and the gang knew Yu Shijin was coming out today. They respectfully waited for him in his study.
Yu Shijin scrutinized the lamp at Yu Hongchang’s place before returning to the study.
“Where is she?” He took off his jacket, his voice sharp and clear.
“Ms Su and her friends are all at Monster University.” Chief detective instantly knew who Yu Shijin was referring to and had already prepared the information. “They are starting military training tomorrow.”
“Who is their instructor?” Yu Shijin hung up his clothes before flipping through the information with his long, slender fingers.
He estimated that there was not much time left.
The Chief detective didn’t hesitate in his reply. “It is someone from the International Association’s military base.”
“Military base?” Yu Shijin’s eyes dimmed. He said in a very low voice, “Have that person pass his instructor badge to me.”
“Huh?” Chief detective was dumbstruck. He never expected such an answer.
Instructor badge?
Wait a minute. He couldn’t possibly be thinking of that?!
Yu Shijin took out his cell phone and shot the Chief detective a look. His tone was dangerous. “Is there anything else?”
The Chief detective immediately straightened himself and saluted. “I will get down to it, sir!”
After the Chief detective left, Yu Shijin placed the documents on the table.
He then took a shower and changed into fresh clothes, before heading out with his cell phone.
His phone was new, but the SIM card was the same.
Yu Shijin lowered his eyes and clicked on a profile icon. He sent a message: Where are you?
