With a powerful shout, Mokou and her entourage, fully armed, stormed into the mall.
What they saw was Asuna and her two companions being arrested and tightly bound, sitting on a bench.
Each person had a sign hanging in front of them, labeled with the words "accomplice," "suicidal," and "traitor."
Meanwhile, Fu Shi, who was guarding the card, was happily writing notes on the side, seemingly planning how to make the most of his new campus card.
That radiant smile made it seem like he'd never been happier in his life.
As for Jiang Qiu beside her, he stared expressionlessly at Kaguya and the others who barged in.
Even though he was just grabbing a feather duster, the sheer power he exuded was still chilling.
After only a moment's thought, Kaguya and the others decisively chose to retreat, even under the twitching gazes of Asuna and the others.
If the perpetrator hasn't been caught yet, they can still symbolically lend a hand.
But now that the person has been caught, if they continue fighting, they have to worry about the possible retaliation they might face after logging off.
They remember those terrifying massage techniques very clearly!
Jiang Qiu was taken aback when he saw how decisively these guys retreated.
He had already completed his challenge, so whether or not he saved this thing was irrelevant. But he really didn't expect that Kaguya and the others wouldn't even try.
The friendship between these people is even more superficial than I imagined.
Having witnessed everything, Sinon and the other two were naturally furious, wishing they could catch those bastards and suffer twice as much as they had ever suffered!
Seeing this, Jiang Qiu also chose to help them realize their resentment. As she untied the three of them, she didn't forget to remind them—
"Our feud ends here. What you do with those guys is your business."
"Of course, if anyone is not convinced, I welcome them to challenge me anytime, and I will definitely give it my all."
The phrase "go all out" sent a shiver down the spines of the three captured men.
Her previously restless and rebellious thoughts vanished in an instant, and her delicate body twisted uncontrollably.
After all, Jiang Qiu is the kind of guy who really dares to take action!
The three stammered in response, and the moment all the ropes were untied, they immediately fled in a disheveled state towards the gate, fearing that Jiang Qiu would change her mind if they were too late.
Fortunately, Jiang Qiu realized that Liu Yiqi Yiers didn't intend to stop them. After watching the three leave, she patted Fu Shi, who was still grinning foolishly.
"Let's go, don't forget we have important business to do in the game this time."
"Oh"
Fu Shi followed obediently, but his mind was clearly wandering elsewhere.
But when the two of them came out onto the street, the roar of an airplane suddenly came from overhead.
Instinctively looking up, I was surprised to see Silver Wolf driving a tank backwards and flying overhead.
"There are more bugs here than I expected."
"Will this get repaired? I'd really like to try out a flying tank."
"The bugs will probably be fixed, but maybe a modification feature will be added later, making it possible to actually modify tanks to fly."
"Oh wow, looks like this is going to be fun from now on."
Fu Shi rubbed his hands together expectantly.
But this small action seemed to trigger some mysterious code, and the two of them instantly disappeared from their original positions.
When they reappeared, the two were already stuck on the windshield of a speeding sports car.
crunch--
The screech of brakes, so loud it hurt your teeth, echoed throughout the entire street in an instant.
After the car finally came to a stop, Mordred stared at the two elusive men with lingering fear.
"How did you two end up here?"
We also want to know
Before Jiang Qiu could finish speaking, the familiar Dayun appeared in her field of vision once again.
This time, however, it wasn't Lappland sitting in the driver's seat, but Exusiai, who looked completely bewildered.
The other person's hands were also strangely wedged between two ice cream cones, and were still twitching wildly.
Bang! ! !
As the two cars collided violently, everyone's consciousness momentarily froze.
When they finally caught their breath, everyone in the club had fallen out of the game, their faces full of confusion.
With a somewhat helpless sigh, Asuna quickly greeted them—
"That's all for today. The platform's stability is still a bit lacking."
"Everyone, please summarize the bugs you encountered. I'll hand them over to Senior Bronya later."
"Hey—I just found a Gundam cockpit, and I haven't even piloted it yet."
"There's this thing in the newbie area?"
"If you think about the outrageous weapons that Sinon picked up, you won't find it strange."
"How did the three of you get caught by Jiang Qiu and Fu Shi? It's one thing if you're no match for them in real life, but how come you can't even beat them in the game?"
Faced with Exusiai's curious question, Sinon and the others fell into an eerie silence.
Damn it, Ah Neng just keeps bringing up the most awkward things!
"We were just careless for a moment."
"It's mainly because of Fu Shi. Who would have thought that this guy was bribed by Jiang Qiu?"
"I was bribed based on my own abilities!"
Fu Shi shouted as she took the campus card from Jiang Qiu and proudly raised her pretty face.
He can even dominate two opponents at once, who else can do that!
Compared to Dog and the others who were seething with hatred, Mordred was also getting a little envious seeing that this guy had temporarily taken control of the group's economic lifeline.
"Jiang Qiu, don't forget to call me if there are any good opportunities like this in the future. I can do this job too!"
"No problem, as long as there are still people causing trouble."
Jiang Qiu smiled and agreed, but when her dangerous gaze swept over Shino and the others, they immediately trembled and avoided her eyes.
Their intuition told them that if they were caught again, the punishment wouldn't be as lenient as it was today.
It could very well turn into a one-on-one interrogation session in a dark room where no one knows about it!
That will be the moment when true terror descends!
Recalling the two Paradise Proving Handprints she had received, Sinon still felt that claw hadn't left her rear armor, making her feel somewhat restless.
Kaguya watched with great interest the obviously strange reactions of the group, and for a moment she felt a tickle in her heart.
I feel like I missed some subtle interactions.
However, she didn't rush to ask for details right away. Instead, she reported the many bugs she had encountered to Asuna while her gaze fell on Sinon, who seemed the most suspicious.
After school, I'll secretly ask her about the situation!
Chapter 92, Section 93: The Ten-Flower Backstabbing Suffered by Chen Huijie
Jiang Qiu and others left school much earlier than yesterday.
Upon receiving the notice of disbandment, Fu Shi led A Neng and the others straight to the food court at the school gate almost immediately.
With most shops having partnered with the school to enable campus card payments, Fu Shi swiped his card with unrestrained and extravagant style.
Sure enough, as long as you choose the right side, you'll have no worries about living a life of luxury!
Almost everyone was carrying bags full of snacks, which made Artoria, who was passing by, practically drool with envy.
Before she could rush towards Mordred's location, Rin Tohsaka forcefully pulled her back.
They still had to rush to Jiang Qiu's apartment for a part-time job interview; if they were rejected because they were late, they would be doomed.
Only after Rin Tohsaka pulled and pleaded with her did she manage to suppress Artoria's restless instincts.
Before leaving, Da Mao Wang couldn't help but look back every few steps, his mouth starting to ache with envy.
Mordred is incredibly lucky!
Meanwhile, Jiang Qiu tapped Fu Shi on the head and told him not to waste food before heading straight to the gym on the third floor.
Although my body is still a little sore, it won't affect my workout today.
Somewhat unexpectedly, when he changed his clothes and arrived at the gym, he did not see Hoshiguma and the others.
On the contrary, a certain little tiger was sitting happily on a bench, chatting with Mikasa, who had come to train earlier.
Upon noticing Jiang Qiu's figure, Swire's tiger tail swayed excitedly twice.
"Jiang Qiu, over here"
After giving a greeting, Swire eagerly patted the empty seat next to him.
Jiang Qiu stepped forward and handed Mikasa a bottle of water before sitting down and asking in confusion—
"Sister Shihuaiya, where are Sister Xiong and the others? Didn't they come today?"
"That's a long story."
When this was mentioned, Swire scratched her face with a hint of hesitation.
After hesitating for a moment, she couldn't help but mutter to herself as if sharing gossip—
"After we got back, we went shopping and had dinner together. We played until the early hours of the morning."
"But just as we were sitting at our usual food stall, getting ready to have some late-night snacks before heading home, that guy, Pink Intestine Dragon, suddenly died in his seat."
"At that time, she was convulsing like she was possessed. Her head slammed onto the table with a thud, and the dragon horn poked two holes in the table."
"And those eye rolls, tsk tsk tsk, creepy."
"We thought she was working too much overtime and almost died suddenly, so we kept pinching her philtrum to try to save her."
"Then the ambulance arrived and took her to the hospital on Rhode Island. On the way there, her body even started leaking water."
"Fortunately, after examination and emergency treatment, his condition has stabilized."
"But what exactly happened, Pink Intestine Dragon didn't tell us. She even asked the doctor to keep it a secret, but that look on her face that she wanted to die made us all a little nervous."
"But she said it wasn't a terminal illness or anything, which was somewhat reassuring."
“We were worried that something might happen to her today, so we helped her take the day off. Hoshiguma is currently at the other person's house taking care of them.”
At this point, Swire sighed somewhat helplessly.
If I had known that Pink Intestine Dragon had health problems, I would have been more careful not to argue with her.
Damn it, we've known each other for so long, and you still keep your health problems from your own people.
However, as Jiang Qiu listened, a strange expression appeared on her face.
Early morning, sudden death, water leak
The moment he locked onto those three keywords, and then recalled the scene of Sister Shihua requesting a truce and using the Holy Grail to delay the recovery time, his heart skipped a beat.
Could this Holy Grail be linked to Chen Huijie?!
In order to get out of the game as soon as possible, Sister Shihua used the Holy Grail quite ruthlessly.
Jiang Qiu's lips twitched as she realized she had accidentally caused trouble, but she immediately maintained her act of complete ignorance.
It seems I'll have to be more restrained in the future, otherwise if I reach a tacit understanding with Chen Huijie, she'll know who the real culprit is!
"Well, is she feeling any better now?"
"Hoshiguma just messaged me saying that she's been taking a nap until now, but she had a pretty good appetite not long ago."
"You could even say she's radiant?"
Swire gestured subtly, "A vacation really does nourish the body."
I think I should probably take some time to relax a bit, as my skin seems to have gotten worse lately.
