Chapter 199 - 99: Telekinesis Exposed
Su Jiameng didn’t care that she was only wearing a small vest and shorts, and she draped the overly large delivery uniform over herself, snickering, "I think the scenery here is nice, the water quality is great, and coincidentally my mood is nice too. I’m here for a swim to relax, are you going to manage that too?"
The man was momentarily taken aback by Su Jiameng’s blunt words, then he chuckled, "I used to be the Wind Disciplinary Chairman at the school. If I’d met you back then, I’d definitely have expelled you from Xilena First Affiliated School without a word. School conduct and discipline must not be taken lightly."
Su Jiameng couldn’t be bothered listening to this guy talk about what office he held at this school in his past; it’s all history to her. Can this man still stop her? Well, even if he could stop her, it wouldn’t matter. She had already accomplished what she needed to.
Raising her chin slightly, her expression carried a hint of arrogance, yet it was not annoying. Instead, people would find this frail girl pretending to be a Queen quite amusing. "A hero doesn’t talk about past victories. Since you were a Wind Disciplinary Chairman in the past, you can’t manage me now. I’ve had a great time swimming today, so I won’t argue with you for now. Just keep away from my housekeeper Changxi, you deadbeat!"
After she finished speaking, she drags Changxi and leaps onto the flying craft, escaping far beyond sight. The man watches their arrogant silhouettes disappearing and smiles wryly, "For being out and about so much, this is the first time I’ve been misunderstood as having feelings for a robot."
The man knew well that Su Jiameng said this to startle him, then seize the chance to escape, not the truth, but he still found it somewhat laughable. However, his previous enthusiasm for Changxi Housekeeper... well, it did have a hint of ’that’ meaning.
Scratching his hair that resembled tangled seaweed, the man repressed his awkward smile and walked with a solemn gaze to a secluded spot to wait. After a moment, a familiar and spicy figure of a woman emerged from the water, clad in a tight-fitting outfit that accentuated her perfect physique.
Removing the waterproof goggles and tossing them aside, she took the man’s extended hand to climb ashore, her heart pounding like a drum, lingering without calming, "Old lady won’t ever help you do this kind of thing again, almost couldn’t make it out, nearly lost this life!"
The man didn’t bother with Luo Xin’s curses or complaints, his face carrying a subtle expression, "What exactly happened to you underwater earlier?"
Previously, the man and Luo Xin arrived here to steal that disastrous meteorite from within the institute. With the man’s arrangement and setup, everything proceeded smoothly. Despite Luo Xin’s previous injuries, she had already healed, allowing her to perform without issue.
As she smoothly infiltrated the pipeline, believing everything was secure, who knew that things would suddenly change midway, forcing her to abandon the mission. Having retreated in haste, she was even discovered by a few patrolling guards, narrowly escaping after a fierce battle.
After hearing Luo Xin’s account, the man’s brow furrowed intensely, filled with doubts, yet his current concerns lay elsewhere, concerned with the status of that disaster!
This mission’s failure would surely lead the institute to enhance, upgrade and modify their defense systems, the map he painstakingly perfected becoming useless, leaving uncertainly when next opportunity would arise...
He wasn’t concerned about lacking a second chance to uncover the institute’s defenses, but worried time would be too short, afraid the institute may hastily utilize outcomes on human trials... that is indeed a disaster that would haunt for ages! Qiming Star may never return to its former self!
"Enough about that, how is that thing now? What level of awakening has it reached?" The man, somewhat agitated, reached for a cigarette box, pulled out a stick placing it at his lips, enveloping himself in clouds of smoke. "In your view, when will they conduct clinical human trials? No, that group rarely values human lives, perhaps they’ll start scheming before anything’s even produced."
Luo Xin, the female star thief at odds, tricked into bloody mishaps by Su Jiameng, listened to the man speak and looked at him like he was an idiot, "Didn’t I tell you already, I was hiding within the pipeline and never entered the institute internally, no clue about those haunted things? Though there is one piece of news that might be good for you, that thing is dead!"
"Dead, it’s dead?" The man was taken aback, nearly burnt by the cigarette between his fingers. "How did it die?"
Luo Xin seemed to recall something strange and fearful, expression complex, "Even if I tell you, you might not believe it, fortunately, I recorded a video, have a look and you’ll understand... Previously, did you notice a girl exiting here?"
