Godslayer: I, the agent of the God of Drama, am here to begin the show.

By now, some of you probably already know who this friend is.

That's right, he's the strategist of the Nightfall Squad.

Anqing fish.

However, to be precise, they are not friends yet.

His relationship with them is now very ambiguous.

Therefore, Lin Ze needs to meet with him to confirm their relationship.

He didn't know if his presence would change An Qingyu's attitude towards them.

But no matter what, he had to go see An Qingyu.

If you can't be friends, then you can't let him become your enemy.

Because Lin Ze truly couldn't bring himself to harm him.

However, barring any unforeseen circumstances, everything should be fine.

No matter what, An Qingyu would never become their enemy, and Lin Ze was already satisfied with that.

Just then, Lin Qiye followed Lin Ze to the door.

They looked up at the night sky, where countless stars seemed to be greeting them.

Since inheriting Nyx's abilities, Lin Qiye has felt a deep connection to the night sky.

I felt as if I were the master of this starry sky.

"What's wrong? Why are you standing outside all by yourself? Are you feeling unwell?"

Lin Qiye asked with some concern.

He didn't care about anything else; he only cared about Lin Ze's health and safety.

Although there shouldn't be any problems under normal circumstances, he was still worried.

"fine."

"It just suddenly occurred to me."

"So...you're drunk?"

Lin Qiye glanced at Lin Ze curiously.

Lin Ze couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Qi Ye, what are you talking about?"

"Let's stop pretending. How could I possibly be drunk?"

"Oh... I was hoping you'd speak the truth after you've had a few drinks."

"Um?"

Lin Ze looked at the kid with a puzzled expression.

Lin Qiye quickly said, "Haha, I was just kidding."

"Tell me about your problem. You seem to have something on your mind."

"Yes, something has come up."

The two of them tacitly avoided the topic.

Are you tired right now?

"If you're not tired, come with me to see a friend."

Lin Ze asked.

He thought about it and realized that he couldn't do this alone.

Lin Qiye should be with me, if he's willing.

"OK."

"I'm willing to do anything with you."

"Um... don't get me wrong, I just wanted to say that I'm free anyway, so I thought I'd go out with you."

Lin Ze smiled and didn't expose him.

He noticed that Lin Qiye had become increasingly audacious lately, and was no longer even bothering to act.

"good!"

"Since you're willing to come with me, let's go out and have some fun."

"..."

Lin Qiye: You want to go on a date with me on your first day back?

Hajizhe, you bastard.

If that's the case, then I'm willing to go with you.

I know perfectly well that your excuse about visiting a friend is just that—an excuse.

Lin Qiye thought to himself.

He didn't believe Lin Ze was going to visit his friend.

Because their friends are not in Cangnan City.

My friends in Cangnan City are all drunk now.

In other words, Lin Qiye is his only friend now!

So Lin Ze was definitely lying; he just wanted to go out with me!

Yes! That's it!

......

A moment later, the two of them arrived at the 'date' location in Lin Qiye's mind.

Lin Qiye's lips twitched; he knew Lin Ze was straight.

But I never expected him to be so straightforward!

I just want to ask, is this really a place suitable for a date?

Who's having a date in the sewers?!

Lin Ze showed no unusual behavior at this time, which proved that...

He really wanted to bring me here!

Lin Qiye tentatively asked, "Um... Lin Ze?"

"We really have to stay here..." Lin Qiye quickly changed his mind halfway through his sentence, "Does your friend really live here?"

"Did we go to the wrong place?"

"I don't think this is your problem; it's a navigation issue."

Even if Lin Qiye doubted the navigation system, he never doubted Lin Ze.

However, Lin Ze firmly stated, "Yes, this is the place."

"How should I put it, my friend is a rather strange person."

"He really likes living in this kind of place."

"All right......"

Lin Qiye was speechless; he hadn't expected it to be true.

Moreover, he saw many small mice along the way.

Speaking of the little mice, that's even more interesting. The moment they saw Lin Ze, they wanted to run away.

But he hadn't run more than a few steps before he caught up with Lin Ze.

In just a short while, a group of little mice had already followed Lin Ze.

"If nothing unexpected happens, it should be here."

"But where are they?"

Lin Ze had already arrived at An Qingyu's laboratory.

Many mysterious corpses were found soaking in glass containers.

In the very center there is an operating table with a beating heart on it.

Lin Qiye frowned; there really were people here.

No, things aren't that simple.

How did these mysterious corpses end up here?

Shouldn't any mysterious incident or mysterious corpse be taken away by the authorities?

So what's going on?

and many more!

Lin Qiye suddenly remembered what they had been talking about at the dinner table.

The members of Squad 136 casually remarked, "Thieves have been rampant lately. Stealing things is one thing, but stealing mysterious corpses is another."

With just that one sentence, Lin Qiye instantly understood.

He looked at Lin Ze with a shocked expression.

Lin Ze seemed to have expected this, and he made a shushing gesture at him.

Lin Qiye understood immediately, activated the [Mortal Divine Realm], and followed closely behind Lin Ze without saying a word.

"Not bad, their counter-surveillance capabilities are quite good."

"But if I let you get away, I'm this (thumbs down)."

After saying that, Lin Ze closed his eyes, and the next moment countless gazes appeared in front of him.

These are all from the perspective of these little mice.

Lin Ze quickly found An Qingyu.

He has now transformed the sewers into a maze, making it difficult to follow the path.

However, this is the standard for others; for Lin Ze, it's a different one.

With so many mice around, Lin Ze could easily memorize the perspective view.

He quickly figured out An Qingyu's escape route.

After finding it, he had a sudden thought and brought Lin Qiye to a corner of a pipe.

The two heard hurried footsteps, and their hearts suddenly raced.

Just as they were preparing to launch a surprise attack, the person's pace suddenly slowed down and eventually stopped.

"Come out."

"I know you're up ahead."

An Qingyu said calmly.

Lin Qiye's pupils dilated instantly, and he looked at Lin Ze for help.

How did they know they were nearby?

Could it be that he also possesses abilities similar to the [Mortal God Realm]?

That can't be right. Is the [Mortal Divine Realm] some kind of common cabbage? Can just anyone possess it?

Lin Ze chuckled, no longer bothering to conceal his aura.

"Let's go, he has no reason to lie to us."

After saying that, Lin Ze took a step forward with Lin Qiye.

The two looked at each other but said nothing.

When we meet again, no words are needed.

"An Qingyu, it's been a long time."

Lin Ze spoke first.

"Lin Ze, long time no see."

An Qingyu replied expressionlessly.

Lin Qiye: "???"

What? I've become a mistress?

Is there no justice left? Is there no law left?!

However, soon, the memory of this person appeared in Lin Qiye's mind.

This person is also from Cangnan No. 2 Middle School; they're from the same school.

They even met during the snake demon incident.

Moreover, Lin Ze had very little contact with him, so there shouldn't be any relationship between them.

If we really have to rank it, An Qingyu is the one who's the mistress!

No, how could I think that?!

Even if he's a mistress, it's still unacceptable!

Realizing that his thoughts were becoming chaotic, Lin Qiye began to shake his head frantically, trying to shake his thoughts out of his head.

An Qingyu noticed him at this moment, "Hello, Lin Qiye."

"Is it because the smell here is too awful?"

"I'm sorry, I have no choice but to hide here to avoid being tracked down by the Night's Watch."

Lin Ze also turned his head and glanced at Lin Qiye.

To be honest, I really wouldn't have noticed if An Qingyu hadn't reminded me.

Lin Ze then snapped his fingers, and Lin Qiye felt as if the air he was breathing had been replaced.

The air was fresh, and it didn't smell like sewage at all.

It's more like a sunny garden filled with the fragrance of flowers.

Hmph, I knew Lin Ze still cared about me.

Then Lin Qiye moved closer to Lin Ze, wanting him to get some fresh air too.

The sewer smell is indeed quite unpleasant.

Seeing this, An Qingyu smiled and didn't say anything more.

He had seen through everything.

Are we friends now?

"In other words, are you here representing the Night's Watch, or just yourself?"

An Qingyu spoke first and asked.

He already knew the general answer before he even asked.

The fact that Lin Ze is still here listening to him speak already tells him what Lin Ze is thinking.

Whether we are friends now or not is not up to me, but up to you.

"It's up to you to choose."

Lin Ze then turned the question back on An Qingyu.

"If you're trying to persuade me to join the Night's Watch, then I'm sorry, you probably won't get the answer you're looking for."

"If you're here to arrest me, you can do it now."

"I have absolutely no chance of winning against you."

"Lin Ze, you are truly amazing."

"I knew you would become strong, but I didn't expect you to become this strong."

An Qingyu spoke in an extremely calm tone, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

Lin Ze replied calmly, "Let me guess, you don't join the Night Watch because the organization wouldn't allow you to conduct these experiments, right?"

"What if I said I could help you with that?"

Upon hearing this, An Qingyu's eyes lit up.

He began to waver, but he quickly regained his composure.

An Qingyu fully understood the significance of joining the Night's Watch without any restrictions.

This means he can conduct experiments recklessly without worrying about being discovered.

Moreover, there are a large number of mysterious corpses at the Night's Watch headquarters for him to study, so he no longer has to hide like a thief.

Lin Ze's request was exactly what he wanted to hear.

However, An Qingyu knew that all of this came at a price.

"We're all smart people, so state your conditions."

An Qingyu spoke directly.

"I haven't decided on the conditions yet, there's no rush."

"Because I need to report your matter to my superiors, and it can only proceed after they approve it."

"Don't worry, even if you fail, it won't affect you."

"Moreover, if it's something I propose, the higher-ups will most likely agree to it."

An Qingyu nodded. "Okay."

"Lin Ze, I never expected you to have such a voice in the Night Watchmen organization."

"I believe you. You won't just make empty promises to me, because that's completely meaningless."

"Before that, I promise you I will absolutely not affect this city or disrupt the current order."

"What I really want to say is that this is what I did before."

"..."

In this way, there was no fundamental conflict between them.

Lin Ze also successfully brought An Qingyu to his side.

"Okay, then we're friends now."

Lin Ze stepped forward and extended his right hand.

"it is good."

An Qingyu stepped forward and grasped Lin Ze's hand.

Before that, he had asked Lin Qiye for his opinion with his eyes.

Only after he agreed did An Qingyu shake hands with Lin Ze.

Otherwise, he definitely wouldn't have done that.

Therefore, even if Lin Qiye had only met An Qingyu a few times.

This friend didn't make him feel uncomfortable; on the contrary, he seemed very easy to get along with.

This is actually a sign of high intelligence.

"Now that we're friends, may I ask you a few questions?"

An Qingyu asked tentatively.

From the moment he met Lin Ze and Lin Qiye, he had many questions he wanted to ask.

Lin Ze is such a mysterious guy.

It really makes you want to delve into it thoroughly!

Before An Qingyu could speak, Lin Ze replied, "I know what you're going to ask, so I'll just answer you directly."

"After I finish speaking, you can ask me any more questions."

"I think you probably want to ask about your eyeliner."

"Now, the whole city should be your eyes and ears, right? So you knew as soon as I got back."

"They even planted spies in Squad 136, and even the captain and his men didn't notice."

"I have to admit, you're quite capable."

"But unfortunately, I have many."

"I have that ability to control them too!"

"And I'm more skilled than you, so I had the first little mouse under control when I found it."

"You think I didn't notice? Actually, it was at that moment that I had already taken control of him."

"I found your current location through him."

Lin Ze smiled slightly.

"Now, is there anything else you want to ask?"

.......
