What evil intentions could an evil god possibly have?

He approached Gu Yuqiu, examined her carefully for a moment, and then asked, "Are you the only ones left, and... this person?"

The person mentioned refers to the driver who had already fallen into a coma but survived to the end under Su Yan's protection, and was now lying on the ground.

Lin Mushi didn't know his identity, but she found his words very strange and wondered if he was blind.

Gu Yuqiu simply didn't say anything, not even bothering to hum in response.

Perhaps realizing that his question was somewhat idiotic, Professor Wei remained silent for a moment, then waved to the people behind him, signaling them to leave for the time being.

Zhong Chongshan asked, "Do I need it?"

"need."

Professor Wei thought for a moment and explained, "Because you will soon no longer be the head of the New Chu Special Affairs Bureau, I cannot let you know these things; it is against regulations."

This statement sounds harsh and can easily make people feel uncomfortable.

Zhong Chongshan showed no anger whatsoever; instead, he smiled with relief and waved for someone to push the wheelchair away.

There were no more idlers on the bridge.

A stillness descended, broken only by the sound of the river and the wind.

Professor Wei looked at the two of them and said slowly, "I believe you both already know Su Yan's true identity."

Lin Mushi thought to himself that this seemingly nonsensical statement was truly astonishing.

What normal second-tier superhuman could fight against Crimson?

Even without the conversation between Shen Hong and Su Yan, she could guess that Su Yan was one of the seven. After a simple elimination, only one choice remained.

—How could the Special Affairs Bureau allow a fifth-tier peak near-god level powerhouse, a humanoid calamity even more powerful than Crimson, to enter this land, besides the Innocent Queen?

As she was thinking this, she suddenly heard a "no".

"The driver didn't know."

Gu Yuqiu's voice was calm, seemingly very serious.

But there's something about it that makes people angry.

Professor Wei wasn't angry; he just felt he hadn't thought things through properly. He then said, "Okay, I understand the situation roughly. Is there a problem with the statement that Su Yan sacrificed herself to save you?"

Gu Yuqiu replied without hesitation, "Of course there are."

"Please speak."

Professor Wei looked into her eyes with an exceptionally focused and solemn expression.

The reason for asking this question is, of course, to ensure consistency in the statements and to avoid making any extremely basic mistakes that could have a negative impact.

Of course, more importantly, he has a pretty good temper.

Gu Yuqiu was meeting this person for the first time, but he was not unfamiliar with her and knew very well what kind of person he was.

Because she had carefully reviewed Professor Wei's materials long before leaving the throne.

As the only fifth-tier expert stationed in the international metropolis of Xin Chu, Professor Wei's experience was actually rather unremarkable, appearing quite ordinary compared to the vast majority of other experts of the same level.

This is naturally related to his temperament, but more so because he was unwilling to pay attention. Otherwise, how could Zhong Chongshan be the person in charge of the New Chu Special Affairs Bureau?

The so-called unwillingness to pay attention actually means that he doesn't like to make any dangerous attempts.

People like this are naturally willing to listen to the opinions of others.

"I don't think the focus right now is on Su Yan's identity. That's a very casual matter, as long as the natural disaster messenger cooperates."

Gu Yuqiu said calmly, "What you should do is capture Crimson."

Professor Wei remained silent for a long time before saying, "So... do you have any leads?"

For some reason, Lin Mushi always felt that there was a lot of reluctance in those words.

Gu Yuqiu said, "No."

Professor Wei looked into her eyes and said patiently, "Crimson is a very dangerous person. The fact that you survived her tonight doesn't mean she's all talk and no action. We must plan carefully and not let our guard down..."

Hearing this, Lin Mushi sensed something was amiss and couldn't help but interrupt him, saying, "Why don't you ask if our Crimson Shou is injured?"

Professor Wei looked at her strangely, finding it quite amusing, and said, "Could you possibly hurt Crimson?"

He wasn't trying to evade the issue at all; he spoke from the heart.

Gu Yuqiu smiled slightly, and when Professor Wei sensed something was amiss, she gave a subtle "hmm".

The 'hmm' was very soft, almost inaudible in the howling river wind, but it was genuine nonetheless.

Professor Wei sighed, his expression shifting slightly several times before finally calming down and beginning to ask questions.

How badly injured are you?

"It's not light."

Did Su Yan leave any clues?

"Or...you could try calling her and asking her to clarify things?"

"I don't have her phone number."

"What a pity."

The conversation ended there.

The responsibility naturally lies with Gu Yuqiu.

Professor Wei looked at her with some helplessness and said, "I still don't understand why you can be so calm, but this is not my problem. The new person in charge tomorrow will definitely have a lot of questions about this. I'd like to remind you in advance, and I hope you won't panic and can maintain your composure."

Gu Yuqiu thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "As you wish."

Upon hearing this, Professor Wei looked at her quietly for a few seconds, then made a phone call to Zhong Chongshan in front of her to give him instructions.

After finishing these tasks, he turned to leave, but suddenly said, "Although you two weren't seriously injured, you can still rest for a while and don't need to work anymore."

This means they should no longer be involved in what follows.

The words fell silent as the night deepened.

The cold wind blowing from afar was even more biting.

Lin Mushi watched Professor Wei's departing figure, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Could he have... noticed something amiss from me?"

Her voice was very soft; only those nearby could hear it.

Gu Yuqiu gazed at the distant lights and calmly asked, "Have we done anything shameful?"

Lin Mushi thought about it carefully, and when she was sure it wasn't true, she immediately felt relieved. She patted her chest with a hint of lingering fear and said, "Indeed, we did a great thing!"

Gu Yuqiu chuckled and said, "We're not like Shen Hong, who can't stand the light of day and have to hide. We should think about things openly and honestly."

Lin Mushi was about to respond when she suddenly realized that the words were referring to "us," and she couldn't help but smile.

Then a thought occurred to her, and her smile vanished instantly. She said worriedly, "But you have so many secrets. What if they ask me about them tomorrow and I can't explain myself?"

No matter how you look at it, a battle between a second-tier transcendent and Crimson, even if the latter actively suppressed his power, should be one-sided.

As a result, Crimson lost so obviously that she had to break her promise and use strength beyond the second tier, but still failed to kill them.

This result is too bizarre for anyone to accept calmly, so the Special Affairs Bureau will inevitably question Gu Yuqiu's identity and launch the most detailed investigation.

At that time, no clue would be overlooked, and unexpected problems could easily arise.

Lin Mushi suddenly started thinking about this question, naturally because her bottom was crooked.

"idiot."

Gu Yuqiu understood her thoughts, raised an eyebrow slightly, and said, "Once this matter is settled, I'll take you back."

"go back?"

Lin Mushi was slightly taken aback and asked in confusion, "Where are you taking me back to?"

Gu Yuqiu wondered why there were such idiots in the world.

She sighed, turned away from the darkness in the distance, and walked towards the bridge, leaving behind a single sentence.

"Of course, it's the home listed on my household registration."

……

……

Crimson has long since lost its home.

Even if it's fake.

Therefore, she has always had a strange temper, mood swings, and unpredictable emotions, making her someone who is easily disliked by others.

If it weren't for her gradual lowering of her profile over the years and her previous lack of recklessness, she would have become a relatively stable but unstable factor in the eyes of countries around the world.

This view will obviously change drastically after tonight.

As she pondered this question, sensing the faint presence of a white cat in the distance, her face grew paler and paler.

In the twilight world, she lost once again to the person who had changed his name and identity, and was kicked off the cliff, where he met the pure white lightning bolt in mid-air.

Although it wasn't enough to kill her, it severely injured her, leaving her far weaker than before.

The problem is that even in her prime, she couldn't walk freely on this land, let alone in her current state.

As for feelings of humiliation, she had experienced something far worse years ago, so it was hard for her to feel anything more—again, because of that person.

Therefore, the most crucial thing now is still that white cat.

She was certain that Gu Yuqiu would not let her off so easily, especially since she was injured.

Thinking about this, she suddenly hesitated, wondering whether she should report Gu Yuqiu to the Special Affairs Bureau.

This is a very complex problem, and it's worth spending a long time thinking about it.

From a practical standpoint, reporting is naturally the simplest way to solve the problem, because Gu and Qiu clearly have serious issues, and the Special Affairs Bureau is not blind.

But... she hoped even more to kill Gu Yuqiu with her own hands, to untie the knot in her heart, to reach the top of the fifth step, and to see the door of the sixth step.

But the white cat was always there, and Gu Yuqiu was the kind of person who was good at scheming and plotting, so how could he be so easy to kill?

Wasn't she completely outmaneuvered tonight?

She couldn't be sure if her thoughts were still part of the other person's plan.
