Card Master: My Special Feature - Choose One of Three
Chapter 43 The People of the Spirit Realm
Bai Miao Xianyu straightened up, rested his back on the sofa armrest, and looked upside down at Yun Chuxiu with his head suspended in the air.
Even viewed upside down, Yun Chuxiu's beauty is still strikingly beautiful, especially with her legs crossed, arms resting on the table, and her waist and hips curving in an exaggerated arc.
These three little bullies, Fen Yuan and Xi Xi Ha Ha, used to want to dig a hole and bury themselves when Jiang Nianqing was around, but now that Yun Chuxiu is here, they've disappeared again.
"What are you thinking about?"
Bai Miao saw Yun Chuxiu's red lips open and close.
"I'm thinking, there really is no such thing as a free lunch. The Secret Service provides accommodation, but the price is 24/7 availability, and..."
Bai Miao's eyes were more lifeless than a salted fish, and his body was stiffer than a salted fish.
"And then there are leaders who come looking for us from time to time, there's nowhere to hide?"
Yun Chuxiu chuckled softly; Bai Miao's personality was even more interesting than Jiang Nianqing had described.
"As expected, the leader's excessive demands weren't unintentional offenses, but rather a test of your bottom line."
Bai Miao thought this in his heart, and he said it out loud: "Serving the residents of Yujiang City is the duty of every employee of the Special Service Bureau."
"Bai Miao, we are all in the same boat."
The question that had been lingering in my mind for so long was answered at this moment.
There are too many coincidences.
Why are Yun Chuxiu so close to Bai's parents?
Why did she happen to save Bai's parents and also happen to know Jiang Nianqing?
She and Jiang Nianqing even switched places, one going from Yujiang to Shenjing, and the other coming from Shenjing to Yujiang.
If she was originally entrusted by the Jiang family or Jiang Nianqing to specifically protect Bai's parents on their way back to Yujiang.
Then all of this makes sense.
As Bai Miao, the nephew of the Bai family and Jiang Nianqing's cousin, he was automatically classified as belonging to the Jiang family faction within the Special Operations Bureau.
Even though Yun Chuxiu had already made their relationship clear, Bai Miao was still making a last-ditch effort.
"You are the director of the Secret Service, and I am the captain of the Secret Service. The Secret Service is great because of you and me."
"Stop pretending. If you overdo it, you won't be cute." Yun Chuxiu got up and walked towards Bai Miao, flexing her fingers.
Jiang Nianqing had reminded her that if she wanted to subdue Bai Miao, she couldn't rely on words; she would have to resort to martial arts if necessary.
The scent of rose perfume grew closer, and the view Bai Miao could see upwards became increasingly worse.
Bai Miao keenly sensed the danger, and with a quick somersault, he sat cross-legged in the center of the sofa, raising his hands to prove his innocence.
"Director Yun, Sister Yun! Let's talk this out. Beautiful ladies use words, not fists."
"You should have done it this way earlier," Yun Chuxiu leaned forward, her wavy hair brushing against Bai Miao's cheek, her thumb and forefinger gliding across Bai Miao's chin.
She patted Bai Miao's cheek. "I know your card abilities. I'm giving you a task."
Please help me see who Yin Changfeng and Gu Feng have been spending a lot of time with lately.
After Yun Chuxiu left, Bai Miao stared blankly at the TV for a while before burying his head in the pillow.
This Yun Chuxiu is indeed a bad woman.
Fen Yuan and Xi Xi Ha Ha suddenly reappeared from nowhere, and Bai Miao flicked the foreheads of each of these three cowardly bullies.
Medical Department, Ward for Serious Injuries.
The ward environment was very good, with an IV drip on one side of the bed and vital signs monitoring equipment on the other.
The room has a sofa for the person accompanying the patient to rest and a coffee table for displaying items.
The window was large and faced the small lake inside the Secret Service headquarters.
The sunlight was perfect, casting golden streaks along the windowpanes, making the room warm and cozy.
Yin Changfeng was wrapped in bandages all over his body, with only one eye showing. His missing arm had been replaced with a new one.
There is a significant color difference between the new arm and the body.
Hee-ha-ha curiously circled around Yin Changfeng, while Fen Yuan nestled on Bai Miao's head and snored.
"They let me choose a new arm, but I thought that no matter what, a retrofit can't be as good as the original, so I might as well get a powerful one."
Yin Changfeng wanted to show Bai Miao his new arm, but the wound pulled at it, making his face twitch with pain.
Bai Miao placed the fruit basket on the coffee table, took out an apple from it, and took a bite of it himself.
"It's rare that you still think of visiting me," Yin Changfeng said. He was not one to fuss over details, and he wouldn't make any wild connections when Bai Miao ate an apple.
Bai Miao didn't have much contact with him. Su Helu had met him once, and afterwards they were just exchanging greetings whenever they met.
Visiting at this time feels somewhat deliberate.
Moreover, Bai Miao was automatically classified as a member of Yun Chuxiu's faction within the bureau, and his appearance was undoubtedly either a criminal or a thief.
"A while ago, my parents went to Shenjing for a trip. On their way back, they were attacked by monsters, and it was Yun Chuxiu who saved them."
Bai Miao's words were an explanation of why he and Yun Chuxiu were close, and also an indication that their relationship wasn't that intimate.
"Things have come to this point, and everyone has to think about themselves."
"I like straightforward people." Yin Changfeng was most impatient with those insincere probing tactics. He would accept whatever was said and whatever move was made.
"Ask me anything you want to know."
"I want to know what you encountered in the spirit realm?" Bai Miao picked up the book Yin Changfeng had placed beside him, turned to the last few pages of the epilogue, and asked Yin Changfeng for his permission.
"Can I tear out these last few pages and use them as drafts? I can concentrate better if I take notes while listening."
"Tear it up as you like. I've read this book three times. You can take the whole thing if you want."
It's just a book, nothing important.
"Do you know what a Spirit Realm Citizen is?" Yin Changfeng's first question made Bai Miao frown.
Based on his more than ten years of education, Bai Miao was certain that ordinary people could not live in the Spirit Realm, and card masters could not stay there for long.
He searched his memory and quickly found an analogy.
"Is it a monster, like the Lionheart Society, neither human nor beast?"
"The Lionheart Society?" Yin Changfeng hadn't handled matters related to the Lionheart Society, so he wasn't familiar with the situation, but there were indeed similarities between the two.
"I don't know what Lionheart is, but they are definitely some kind of monster that is neither human nor ghost."
"The spiritual realm that Yun Chuxiu chose has many inhabitants who worship the Lord of the Spiritual Realm as a god and offer spiritual energy as sacrifices to him."
"Although this third-tier spiritual realm is not as unpredictable as the spiritual realm of the Six Virtuous Immortals, the strength of the master of this spiritual realm is far superior to the statue of the Six Virtuous Immortals."
"By the time we realized that the Lord of the Spirit Realm was unusually strong, it was too late. The Lord of the Spirit Realm and the people of the Spirit Realm surrounded us."
"We paid a heavy price to escape from the spirit realm."
Bai Miao knew what the terrible price Yin Changfeng was talking about was.
The disaster relief equipment in Yujiang City can only cover a limited area.
The Special Operations Bureau cannot detect and eliminate the spiritual realm outside Yujiang City in advance as they can inside the city.
The unified approach of the Divine Continent Alliance is to allow the monsters to descend upon these spiritual realms located outside the city.
When the monsters invade human cities, they will be completely annihilated in one fell swoop.
