Chapter 307 (1/2)

Pee? Hostage? (1)

The gates of the House of Confusion had already been repaired, you wouldn’t be able to tell there had been a battle that morning. The construction workers in the Miracle District, especially around the House of Confusion, were very efficient. Repair works had been completed within a few hours.

She walked up to the gates, then asked the guard politely, “Excuse me, have you seen three girls about the same age as me around? They were here with a dark, thin young man and an old lady. The old lady was here to see the doctor.”

The guard wasn’t a Light Rider. The Light Riders wouldn’t take menial posts like this, the ones in charge of guarding the gates were chosen from among the new citizens. They were not here for defence, but to prevent patients from disturbing the doctors inside.

“You mean…” The guard was silent for a moment, then thought of Ye Lanyu and the rest. When he was about to answer, he was interrupted by someone else.

“Miss, I know where they are,” said a mildly disconcerting voice from behind.

“??” Ye Zhiqing turned around, and the first thing in her line of sight was a balding head. This head belonged to a middle-aged man- the same duke Ye Lanyu and the seventh princess fought today.

There were about six of his men with him. They had recovered from their injuries by now, the doctors inside had so kindly helped them with their wounds. The doctors were still of the Sacred Teachings after all.

It was also because their unconscious bodies were blocking traffic.

“!!” When Ye Zhiqing turned around, his pupils dilated immediately. His perversion took over once again when he met yet another pretty girl.

Was today a special day? Why did he keep meeting such pretty girls? He barely met one a year, and he just met four of them today.

It must be good luck!

Upon seeing a pretty girl, he forgot the lesson he had learned that morning, he was itching to get his hands on this one...

He thought for a moment, then as if he had a great idea, he spoke, “I know who you’re looking for, miss. They just fought some very bad people from inside today, they even broke the gates. Eh, it’s repaired?”

The duke wanted to point at the evidence for Ye Zhiqing to believe him, only to find the gates already repaired.

“This gate was destroyed by the two girls today. One ice and one fire, they were very scary,” said the duke immediately.

Although at that point the duke had already fainted, other people told him about it and he saw the broken gates too.

“May I ask if what he’s saying is true?” Ye Zhiqing ignored the duke, directly asking the guard at the gates.

Ye Zhiqing wasn’t about to believe the duke because she could immediately tell this wasn’t a person to be trusted. She may be an obedient girl but she wasn’t naive nor gullible.

However, when he mentioned Ye Lanyu and the seventh princess’ attributes, she thought perhaps it might be true- but she wasn’t going to ask the duke for confirmation.

“Yes,” the guard thought for a moment, it was true, “but it was…”

“It was a misunderstanding, right? The bad guys will always say that when people start to investigate!” the duke interrupted, “go! Teach these criminals a lesson!”

“Yes!” the group of shameless subordinates once again stepped forward, this time to knock the guards unconscious. They dragged the guards aside.
