Only a few wisps of thin black mist remained in the air.
"Remember! Block all surrounding surveillance!" Her voice came from the void.
The room door clicked shut, as if gently closed by an invisible force.
Su Enxi stood there, looking at the empty entryway, her heart heavy with a tightness in her chest.
Her joke... has actually come true.
The girl with no connections or income was really taken away by Lu Mingfei.
why?
Zero, the taciturn man who had the deepest bond with the boss, actually chose to betray him?
A huge sense of confusion and loss welled up inside me.
She didn't have time to think about it.
He returned to the sofa, immediately picked up the laptop on the table, and his slender fingers began to type rapidly on the keyboard.
The screen's pale blue light reflected on her face, highlighting the heavy look in her eyes.
Now, she must do everything in her power to provide technical cover for this dangerous meeting.
……
Ling, wearing the dark blue school uniform of Shilan Middle School, walked steadily down the street.
The reason for choosing to meet Mai Shude at Shilan Middle School is actually quite simple.
She had a hunch that Lu Mingfei had wanted to sneak back to Shilan Middle School.
Using the pretext of meeting, he asked Su Enxi to help him block the surveillance cameras at Shilan Middle School.
Lu Mingfei's actions also went more smoothly.
She knew that meeting Mai Shutoku tonight would inevitably lead to a fight.
She knew Mai Shutoku's personality well; she was absolutely loyal to her boss.
In fact, both she and Su Enxi could see that Jiude Mai's feelings for her boss were not only loyalty, but also love.
For Mai Shude and Su Enxi, their boss is everything.
But she's not quite the same as the other two.
As a zero, she is indeed the boss's most loyal shield.
But when Lu Mingfei called out the name "Renata," she still wavered.
The fact that Lu Mingfei could call out this name means that he has the possibility of regaining his memories.
So she decided to take a gamble.
Moreover, Lu Mingfei has too many powerful forces behind him. If even she doesn't stand by Lu Mingfei's side, then who else can?
Her life was given to her by Lu Mingfei, so dying for Lu Mingfei is a good ending.
Unbeknownst to Zero, several wisps of thin black mist were silently following behind her under the cover of night.
Chapter 73 Sandwich Cookies
Lu Mingfei crouched down, hiding in the branches of a camphor tree outside the wall of Shilan Middle School.
As an evergreen tree, the camphor tree still has lush green leaves even in October.
The dense foliage perfectly concealed Lu Mingfei's figure.
He opened his golden eyes and carefully examined the running track of Shilan Middle School.
"Eight cameras, that's a bit too many!" Lu Mingfei muttered to himself.
Although I occasionally check where there are surveillance cameras when I'm at school, I haven't counted them in detail.
As a result of this investigation, eight infrared cameras were found around the runway.
Lu Mingfei mentally assessed the situation. At his current speed, it would take him at least three minutes to destroy all the cameras.
Including the time for running ten laps, this round takes nearly eight minutes.
Moreover, with so many cameras malfunctioning, as long as the school's surveillance system isn't just for show, they're bound to find something amiss.
They will definitely call patrol personnel to come and check it out.
"Let's just forget about it!" Lu Mingfei thought to himself, wanting to back out.
Although he had been dominated by the fear of punishment, Lu Mingfei was still afraid when faced with the reality.
What if word gets out that he was streaking...?
It’s scary just thinking about it!
"It's just the five punishments, right? I shouldn't die..." he comforted himself.
Just as he was preparing to leave and return to the California Sunshine.
He saw a platinum blonde girl silently walking towards him.
"Zero, what is she doing here?" Lu Mingfei wondered.
A terrible thought crossed his mind: Could it be that Zero was really monitoring him the whole time?
Uncle Liu once said that the forces behind Zero are very wealthy and have extensive connections on the internet.
It's not impossible that the forces behind Zero were monitoring him throughout the entire process.
"What should I do?" Lu Mingfei felt a little irritated.
As he was getting into trouble, Zero had already approached the camphor tree where he was.
The girl looked up at the wall, then looked up at the camphor tree.
The next instant, her pupils contracted slightly.
She leaped up and landed with a thud on the camphor tree trunk.
With another very soft "thud," she used the force to land on the wall of Shilan Middle School.
Her figure was beautiful, without any flaws. Even her posture when landing on the wall was as elegant and steady as those of national gymnastics team members.
After landing on the wall, she leaped down like a cat and entered Shilan Middle School.
"What is she trying to do?" Lu Mingfei asked, his face full of doubt.
When Zero looked in his direction just now, he thought he had already been discovered.
Unexpectedly, Zero was only using the camphor tree he was standing on as a stepping stone.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Mingfei heard an extremely faint "bang," even fainter than the sound Zero made.
Suddenly, a feeling of being watched by a wild beast arose, and a chill ran from the back of my spine to the top of my head.
Lu Mingfei's blood boiled instantly, and a pair of dazzling golden eyes appeared among the dense foliage.
He looked around but found nothing unusual.
"Something's not right!" That was Lu Mingfei's first instinct.
Now they don't even care about hiding themselves to watch the show anymore.
That feeling he just experienced was definitely not his imagination.
He had to find Zero quickly and take her home.
He leaped from the camphor tree into the walled area, and rolled twice in the green belt next to the wall after landing.
He crouched down to check on Zero, only to find that Zero was sitting on a chair under the shade of a tree in the distance, seemingly unaffected.
He suddenly exerted force with both feet, like a cheetah, and covered the distance of several dozen meters in an instant.
Just as he reached Zero's side and was about to grab her wrist and lead her away...
Lu Mingfei heard it—the sharp sound of wind, the sound of air being torn apart.
"Shh!"
Lu Mingfei suddenly looked down, feeling that if he had been even a fraction of a second slower, his head would have hit the ground.
Without a second thought, he turned and delivered an explosive elbow strike! Fierce as thunder!
"Thump!" A heavy, muffled sound! Although it struck the air, it produced a texture as if it were hitting metal!
Then, there was that faint "bang" again.
It's like a high-speed moving object being forcibly stopped! It hit!
Lu Mingfei's eyes sharpened! His blazing golden pupils suddenly erupted with even stronger light! Two burning gazes pierced the darkness!
Before my eyes, a few wisps of thin black mist floated in mid-air, slowly dissipating.
It was exactly the same black mist he saw at the New Star.
Instantly, Lu Mingfei became extremely vigilant.
"Whoosh!" The sound of a sharp blade cutting through the air rose again! The black mist vanished abruptly! The attack closed in instantly!
Lu Mingfei's muscles tensed, ready to launch a full-scale counterattack—
"Smack!" Zero, who had been sitting upright, suddenly raised his foot!
A black flat shoe shot out like a cannonball!
"Clang!" The sole of the shoe struck the invisible blade precisely, producing a crisp sound, and the shoe landed crookedly on the grass beside it.
"Enough!" Ling's cold voice lowered. "If you continue fighting, you have no chance of winning."
"Huh? You little brat, you underestimate me!" A sharp female voice echoed from the void, full of anger and disdain.
“Then,” Zero Ice Blue’s pupils turned toward the source of the voice, a chill spreading through them, “have you forgotten what my Word of Power is?”
The air suddenly fell into a deathly silence.
A few seconds later, the voice, filled with suppressed anger, rang out again: "...I only ask you, why did you betray your boss?"
“Betrayal?” Zero’s voice was completely calm. “Never. The one I’ve always been loyal to is the one I love.”
