Chapter 20: Vestiges of a Wraith (Part 2/2)
The camera shot the earth at close range, however the audio recording device and other equipment were still in operation. Only the sounds of fist meeting flesh, miserable shrieks in succession, and noisy chaos could be heard.
In the end it seemed someone had chased the thugs away. Only then did the scene return back to tranquility.
Li Xuecheng was mute for a moment. He recovered and saw that the First-Person-View puppet wouldn’t be getting back up anytime soon. He tried calibrating the camera remotely. His mouth continued to mutter all the while:
“I should have known to use a hovering type……”
The camera suddenly shook and the scene changed. The view cut through the building, the grass field, the sky, and also an intermittent image of a person. The rocking caused one’s eyes to go dizzy.
“Steady yourself!”
Li Xuecheng had rushed out the order with the assumption that the First-Person-View puppet had recovered. But soon he discovered that he was wrong.
The figure was way too close to the rocking camera. The ice cold gaze of an eye focused gradually into view. Was it familiar?
…...F*CK ME!
Li Xuecheng smashed a heavy fist on the armrest. He finally understood the state of the current situation. Luo Nan was holding the unconscious First-Person-View puppet and was searching for clues right now. In addition, Luo Nan had quickly discovered the issue.
The camera rocked slower and slower, while Luo Nan’s face become clearer and clearer.
Lian Yu’s hand grew more and more painful. She opened her eyes and looked at Li Xuecheng who was right beside her. He probably noticed that she was looking at him for his ashen face made a slight adaption. His mouth twitched before he finally squeezed out a smile:
“It appears to be ‘Game Over’ this time.”
This awkward self-mockery combined with Lian Yu’s relatively obedient attitude allowed Li Xuecheng to recover a bit of confidence. His voice increased in volume:
“It’s as I said before. Does he know who’s the instigator? Even if he does know it was me, can his claw reach out to me? Like I can even give him a greeting right now……”
Li Xuecheng was about to use the communications device in broadcast mode, but halfway through he saw Luo Nan’s gaze seemingly looking straight at him. Li Xuecheng hesitated before he finally chuckled. He replied stubbornly:
“......I can also just ignore him!”
He closed the projector upon speaking, refusing to receive the information coming from over there. He began to talk and gabble non-stop when faced with Lian Yu’s gaze:
“Jie Yu. I’ve always understood since I was little that the resources behind power is formless, traceless, and omnipotent. This fellow was fortunate today to be able to get away from the campus thugs. But tomorrow, the ones he shall face will most likely be true gangsters.
“I still have many different methods of play aside from what you’ve seen today. His family members, his relatives and friends, each person is a viable line of attack. This is real life. It’s not like those games with their botchy programming and plot influences. We can take our time to play!”
Li Xuecheng’s speech became filled with more and more passion. Confidence filled his throat anew. But Lian Yu, who had been pulled into his embrace, only felt a rocking sensation inside. The speech left an intense sour taste that was frightening. Her organs were stewed and nibbled to have a thousand sores and a hundred holes by this time.
This setback was already out of Li Xuecheng’s mind; his mind turned more sexual instead. He hugged this charming and delicate doll, no longer increasing his strength. But wouldn’t it be purely idiotic of him to believe that his wishes will be fulfilled?
Intentions sprouted in his mind. The temperature of his breathing increased to the next level. His lips moved to the boundary between Lian Yu’s neck and collarbone.
Lian Yu’s mood suddenly plummeted to zero. She tried to break free, but she was firmly locked in place by Li Xuecheng.
“Jie Yu, Jie Yu, Jie Yu……”
The fuzzy syllables boiled from Li Xuecheng’s throat. The temperature of his body was rising. Sky’s Fury was a very nice place. He had many splendid conquests in this place. And today there would be another large victory.
“Bang bang bang!”
Someone had suddenly knocked on the car window with a decent amount of strength. This person’s mood was clearly represented.
F*ck. I still haven’t come yet and you’re knocking some sh*t now!?
Li Xuecheng was furious for some time. He was even more furious that the bodyguard in the surroundings wasn’t able to obstruct a stranger. What if Luo Nan had come murderously over? Wouldn’t he have to personally deal with the matter?
