Chapter 69): She’s Definitely Coming
At 4:30 in the morning, Zhang Shan returned home. As soon as he came home, he went straight to the bathroom and sshed his face with cold water.
He wasnt sure if it was because of Lu Yibei, but he felt a little chilly.
Hey on his bed and turned on his phone, only to find more than a dozen unread messages and several missed calls.
Most of the calls were from listeners who knew him, and many of the messages asked whether or not they needed to call the police.
There were also concerning messages asking why he cut the broadcast off.
Tsk!
He really did want to call the police to arrest the viin, Lu Yibei!
After such an abrupt cut, he was sure that his reputation was wiped clean.
He sighed as he walked towards his study and sat in front of hisputer.
As the page loaded, he casually nced at his peak viewers, and he couldnt help but be slightly taken aback.
His peak viewers ranged from less than a thousand to over five thousand in the hour that he was out.
Not only that, a lot of listeners were extraordinarily generous and donated hundreds of dors in gifts.
Damn, he muttered as he scrolled through the chat history.
After reading the barrage of chat messages, he fell into deep thought.
Is is this Lu Yibeis way of repaying me? I heard urban legends will give a reasonable return after receiving help from humans.
Now, she didnt seem too terrible.
Looking at the scattered script on the table, he lit another cigarette, picked up his pen, and started to scribble new ideas.
Was my previous idea too sloppy?
This gives them more character, shows that theyre willing to help, and makes them more rtable.
[It is said that in a certain city, there is a monster wearing arge red and white coat with snow-white hair that is dusted with a pink glow.
She is like a porcin doll, with a pair of blood-red eyes like a beast.
Every midnight, she will randomly appear at a crossroad in the city, stopping passing vehicles.
She will ask them for help, and if they are kind enough to help her and drive her to the most remote corners of the city]
In the most remote corners of the city, the alleyways were stained with moss and moisture.
At the end of this long and lonely alley, the lights of a tavern that didnt exist in this world flickered.
A woman in a ck trench coat stopped in front of the tavern.
[Urban Legend] was the name of the tavern.
She stepped forward, lifting up the curtain that was embroidered with lotus patterns, and entered the tavern.
The warm lights in the tavern were bright, and two or three wooden tables and chairs were scattered before the bar.
A girl in dark blue pyjamas concealed her body.
She sat cross-legged in a corner against the wall, donning a hideous ck mask that resembled that of a shaman priestess. The bowl in front of her was filled with a thick broth, emitting a pleasant aroma.
The fragrance lingered in the air, morphing into the shapes of struggling livestock before dissipating into indistinct whines.
Seeing the woman walk into the tavern, the girl put down her chopsticks and waved her over: Lin Yiqi, over here!
A wave of resentment washed over Yiqis eyes, but she pulled out a chair and sat down before the girl.
Want noodles? Hus noodles are as good as ever.
A new urban legend is born, Lin Yiqi said coldly.
The girl slurped her noodles; her mask tilted to the side, revealing half of her delicate face.
Oh, dont worry about me! Just keep talking; Im just really hungry!
Hearing this, Yiqi paused before continuing, To be precise, shes a witch, but not a full witch She broke into the ce that I have been running for a long time, and
ce? Youre talking about that uh, high school?
Yes. Shihekou High School.
Bah. I told you that you shouldnt cooperate with those bastards from the Eclipse Society, the girl scoffed. Is revenge that important? You even dabbled in a dirty little thing like Zigu.
Of course it is! Yiqi blurted it out. You should be very clear that in this world, you can only survive if you keep getting stronger; thats why I
There are other ways of getting stronger, the girl interrupted. You are always wee to join me.
Your method is too slow. I need to be stronger and overpower Zhao Ke, or the whole school will fall into his clutches.
I didnt say that there was anything wrong with your methods, the girl said, raising her hand. Ipletely understand.
That witch is interrupting my ns. Could you please help me deal with her?
Im busy. What do you want me to do?
Teach her a lesson.
Youre joking, the girl stared, a frown visible through the gaps of her mask.
What do you want? Ill get it for you, Yiqi offered through gritted teeth.
We have been friends for many years, so logically, I should help you.
But instead, the girl continued. You turned to the Eclipse Society instead ofing to me.
Could it be that youre afraid of owing me a favour? she guessed.
Lin Yiqi remained silent, but that was enough of an answer for the girl.
I dont understand why youre still afraid of me. If youe with me, I can provide you asylum from all those monsters, and you have enough time to gain power and get your revenge. I still remember your prayers under the tree.
I Yiqi paused. What do I need to do so that youll help me?
The girl sighed, Fine. Ill help you out.
Thank you! I will definitely repay you in the future!
After a pregnant pause, Lin Yiqi continued, I dont know where she is now, though. I might need to trouble you on that too.
Its easy to find a newborn witch like her. It doesnt take much effort at all.
Although Yiqi knew her capabilities, she didnt know why she was being so confident.
Newborns tend to feel like theyre invincible, the girl exined. Are they not easy to find if they unt their powers? Like a lighthouse when youre lost at sea.
Shes lucky that Im the first being that shell meet! the girl chuckled. Ill give her a good beating! Leave it to me!
