What evil intentions could an evil god possibly have?

Then he added another sentence.

“This is not just idle talk. Everything you say will be remembered by me. I hope that there will be no contradictions in certain details in the future.”

Gu Yuqiu glanced at the sunset outside the window and sighed, "But this is a very long story."

Lu Xiu asked, "So?"

Gu Yuqiu smiled slightly and said, "I'm afraid you won't have the time or the patience to listen to what I have to say."

Lu Xiu shook his head and said, "The first thing I need to do after arriving in Xin Chu is to deal with Crimson, so you don't need to worry about that for me."

"is it?"

Gu Yuqiu looked at him with great interest.

Lu Xiu couldn't help but frown, increasingly puzzled, wondering what he meant by this.

Just then, his phone, which he had set to silent, began to vibrate.

An ordinary-looking customer in the coffee shop suddenly stood up and walked toward the three of them as fast as he could.

Meanwhile, the coffee shop, which had become lively again after the three started talking, quickly quieted down and was taken over by a group of people in suits.

With such a large-scale commotion, what exactly happened?

Those unrelated guests couldn't help but feel a strong sense of unease.

Lu Xiu waved his hand, signaling his subordinate, who was disguised as a guest, to stop and answer the constantly vibrating phone.

A dozen seconds later, after listening to the contents of the emergency call, he looked at Gu Yuqiu with a complicated expression and said, "You... seem to have some interest."

Lin Mushi thought to herself, "What kind of riddle are you playing?" and asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Lu Xiu said, word by word, "Black Stone and the people of the Divine Will Walker have appeared."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mushi's expression suddenly turned cold. Thinking about the cruel methods of these two organizations, she couldn't help but feel anxious.

She asked, "Where is it? Shouldn't it be too late to go and stop it now?"

Lu Xiu shook his head and said, "There's no need to rush over there."

Lin Mushi was slightly taken aback and subconsciously asked, "Why?"

Lu Xiu looked up at Gu Yuqiu and said expressionlessly, "Because these people... are all dead."

Gu Yuqiu seemed to sense his gaze and said something.

"Isn't this great?"

She smiled and said, "Why do you have such a long face?"

After Gu Yuqiu finished speaking, the atmosphere in the coffee shop became unusually quiet, or rather, eerie.

Lin Mushi, standing to the side, was not only shocked, but also felt that this fact was too absurd.

Those unrelated customers, sensing the atmosphere, subconsciously glanced at the Secret Service agents who had taken over the coffee shop, asking with their eyes if they could leave.

After Lu Xiu nodded, the guests began to leave in an orderly manner.

The coffee shop, which was once full of customers, was now only occupied by a group of special agents in formal attire and an almost absolute silence.

As the winter sun sets in the west, the warm, fireplace-like sunset casts long, dark shadows into the shop.

Just then, Lu Xiu's voice rang out again.

"You don't seem surprised at all?"

Everyone present knew who he was asking, even though he didn't look at that person.

Gu Yuqiu seemed to be in a good mood, because normally she would never pay attention to such vague inquiries.

"I'm still on vacation."

She said with a smile, "Of course I hope Xin Chu is safe and sound, so he won't have to be dragged back to work. And isn't that a good thing?"

This statement is quite boring; aside from the issue of attitude, there's nothing wrong with it.

However, no one would use this as a reason to attack Gu Yuqiu, because she has already accumulated too many achievements in less than two months since joining the company.

Lu Xiu was silent for a moment, then reminded him, "This also means that I can temporarily put aside what's going on there and continue talking to you to get the information I want."

Gu Yuqiu looked at him quietly without saying a word.

The next second, Lu Xiu's expression changed slightly.

His phone vibrated again; it was another phone call.

The time interval was less than a minute.

He glanced at the caller ID, confirmed it was still a message from the other end, and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

He quickly finished listening to the phone call, and his gaze towards Gu Yuqiu became extremely complicated.

The room was completely silent.

No one speaks.

Unable to bear the atmosphere, Lin Mushi glanced at someone subconsciously and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

The person did not answer her.

The person who provided the answer to this question was Lu Xiu.

"Crimson red".

Lu Xiu withdrew his gaze from Gu Yuqiu and said, "Black Stone, as well as those people from the Divine Will Walker, all died at the hands of Crimson."

Lin Mushi's mouth was slightly open, and she didn't react for a while. She asked blankly, "Crimson?"

She was a witness to what happened last night. Although she didn't see everything, she could still deduce from Su Yan's expression that Crimson had ultimately lost.

He was defeated by the claws of that world-famous white cat and was seriously injured.

Logically speaking, Crimson should be hiding now, avoiding the Special Affairs Bureau's search, and returning to her own territory as quickly as possible to recover from her injuries and avoid any accidents.

But now Crimson has suddenly appeared and killed Blackstone and the people of the Divine Will Walker?

Is this a case of the culprits dominating the culprits?

She suddenly snapped out of her daze, looked at Gu Yuqiu's profile, and her eyes became extremely complicated as she thought of some things she dared not say aloud.

Why did news of Shen Hong killing these people arrive just as Lu Xiu was about to ask Gu Yuqiu about what happened last night?

Is there something fishy about this?

Everyone present thought the same thing.

However, no one dared to speak out. They all remained silent, their gazes shifting between Gu Yuqiu and Lu Xiu, feeling that this matter was truly outrageous.

From any perspective, it's impossible for Gu Yuqiu to have any connection with Shenhong, even if the innocent empress is behind her.

Therefore, Lu Xiu didn't speak and asked her for an explanation.

Gu Yuqiu picked up the cat bag, turned around, and prepared to leave.

Lu Xiu looked at her and asked, "If I keep asking, will more people die?"

Lin Mushi thought to herself, "She's not an idiot, how could she possibly answer your question?"

"Ok?"

Gu Yuqiu didn't turn around and said, "I don't quite understand what you mean. Do you think all of this has anything to do with me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the store became extremely tense.

Many people subconsciously looked at Lu Xiu, wanting to remind him that the innocent empress was standing behind the other party. Even if you have also entered the fifth rank, the gap is still far. You should not act rashly and must have a legitimate reason, otherwise it may turn into an extremely serious accident.

Who will bear the consequences then?

Feeling the gazes of everyone, Lu Xiu remained silent for a long time before saying, "I was just asking casually."

Gu Yuqiu laughed and said with a hint of sarcasm, "I was just saying that casually, so please don't take it seriously. After all, I can't bear your suspicion."

After saying this, she walked out of the store, facing the complicated gazes of the crowd.

The room was deathly silent.

Watching Gu Yuqiu's retreating figure, the people in the store had extremely complex emotions. Some of the extraordinary individuals who had crossed the threshold of the third stage even vaguely felt a sense of relief and joy after surviving a catastrophe.

However, everyone, including Lu Xiu, attributed this feeling to the innocent empress.

……

……

As the sun dipped westward, the evening glow painted the sky like blood.

The petite figure in crimson stood atop a building hundreds of meters high, hands clasped behind her back, coldly looking down at the pedestrians below, who looked like ants, a hint of weariness in her eyes.

Suddenly, she frowned, as if she had encountered something terrible, and couldn't help but spit out a hateful "Pui!"

She turned around, kicked a man lying on the ground, and said expressionlessly, "If you keep pretending to be dead, you might as well really die."

He was a tall man.

Centered on the man's body, countless deep cracks spread outwards until they disappeared at the end of the helipad.

Such signs undoubtedly indicate that a battle had taken place here previously, but it shouldn't have been intense, otherwise this building would have been the one to collapse.

The loser was undoubtedly this man from Blackstone, whose status was far from ordinary.

The man struggled to sit up and looked at Crimson, saying, "I cannot understand your appearance."

Like the people in the Special Affairs Bureau, these extraordinary individuals from Blackrock and the Divine Will Walkers also couldn't understand why Crimson would kill.

From a standpoint perspective, Crimson shares a common enemy with these two organizations—the Special Affairs Bureau.

This is the most practical relationship of interest, and there is no reason to go against it.

Even at this moment, the man still thought this way.

"If you're asking me this."

With a cold expression, the crimson figure said, "Then I can only tell you that an ant like you is not worthy of my answer."
