"So, I have a way to help you improve your strength! Whether you have abilities that you cannot master on your own, bottlenecks that have been difficult to break through for a long time, or lack of mature ability planning, as long as you come to my training class, you can become stronger!"

The doll raised its head confidently, stretched out its claws and shook them slightly: "As long as you come to me, after some special training, you will definitely be able to show your strength to surprise your predecessors. At that time, she will look up to you and take the initiative to accept you to face strong enemies!"

"That sounds like it makes sense..."

Lin Xiaolu nodded subconsciously: "So, what do we need to do?"

"What are you doing? Ahem, it's very simple. My requirements are not high."

For some reason, the doll's voice suddenly became unclear. I don't know if it was to cover up this phenomenon, but it pretended to cough twice:

"I don't need tuition or anything, but... your seniors, do you have any fallen hair, clothes that you haven't had time to change, etc.? Just give me two pieces..."

"Xia Liang." Lin Xiaolu suddenly put down the poster and shouted expressionlessly.

"what happened?"

"Did it."

"it is good."

The two girls gathered around the sofa, one expressionless, the other with an inexplicable smile. They blocked both sides of the sofa and stared at the goblin who was still talking big.

"If you can't get those things, you can secretly collect some saliva while she's sleeping. As for blood, that's too difficult, and I won't force you... Wait, what are you doing? I have to emphasize that for the sake of our friendly communication, we should try to avoid unfriendly behaviors that may cause misunderstandings among people or fairies..."

"Ugh! What are you doing? That's so rude, stop it! Put me down now!"

“I came here with sincerity! Even if there’s something that’s hard to satisfy, there’s no need to be like this! Wait! Don’t open the window! Don’t you want to become stronger… Aaaaaah!”

In the gradually darkening night, the French window of the secret base was suddenly opened. From the brightly lit house, a spherical object was thrown out like garbage and landed heavily in the grass several meters away.

Click.

Then the French windows in the living room were closed.

After closing the window, Lin Xiaolu clapped her hands as if she had caught something dirty, looked back at the bushes not far away, pulled the curtains beside her, and then sat back on the sofa.

However, even after driving this uninvited guest out of the secret base, her expression never relaxed.

"what happened?"

Xia Liang, who also returned from the window, saw Lin Xiaolu's expression and couldn't help but wonder: "Did that goblin say something particularly annoying to you just now?"

"Do not."

Lin Xiaolu pondered and shook her head: "On the contrary, excluding the last ones, I think there are a few sentences in it that are very correct."

"Which ones?"

"Duiqiao accepted Hongsi and that woman's return to Fangting City because one person was not enough to protect the city, and he didn't want us to bear the pressure."

Lin Xiaolu lowered her voice slightly: "That is to say, there must be some entanglement that we don't know about."

"That's not the case..."

Hearing her words, Xia Liang couldn't help but smile helplessly: "You think too much about the relationship between the young senior and Sister Hong. They are just like us. They were once teammates who fought side by side."

"No, Xia Liang, you are too naive."

Lin Xiaolu shook her head solemnly: "Duique and my father have been in a very passionate relationship recently, and Hongsi also had an ulterior motive. In other words, there is a conflict between the two of them called 'rivals in love', but now they have to fight side by side."

What she didn't mention was that she saw the eye contact between Delphinium and Hong Siyu the day Delphinium introduced Hong Siyu to the team.

At that time, Hong Siyu looked at Cuiqiao as if to show off, while Cuiqiao's helpless look seemed as if she was silently enduring it.

In other words, the woman was threatening Delphinium.

Lin Xiaolu thinks so.

"So, even though that goblin is talking nonsense and trying to sow discord, there is one thing he said that I think is true."

"Which sentence?" Xia Liang always felt that the situation in front of him had a subtle sense of déjà vu. He didn't want to follow up on this topic, but he had to ask.

"...I want to know the truth, and sometimes I have to take extraordinary measures."

Lin Xiaolu stood up suddenly, clenched her fists, and shouted loudly: “So, I’m going to follow that woman!”

Chapter 183 Second Tracking

2023-06-29

Two days later, it was a very ordinary afternoon.

Because the teaching building of Xizhao Middle School was used as an examination venue for social examinations in the afternoon, even on a weekday, Lin Xiaolu and Xia Liang got a valuable half-day off.

Under normal circumstances, such a half-day holiday would probably be spent by the girls doing nothing in their daily lives, but this day was different, Lin Xiaolu had different plans.

"Well, I'll be leaving now. Goodbye."

As Hong Siyu's voice sounded at the entrance, the girls faced the gate of the secret base together and watched him leave, until a muffled "bang" was heard at the door, and they looked at each other.

"Walk."

Lin Xiaolu waved solemnly at the door and said, "Follow her."

"You really want to do this?"

Xia Liang felt a bad premonition in his heart and was unwilling to make such an unreliable decision: "Didn't we fail in tracking your father last time? How about we just forget about it this time?"

Xia Liang is a girl who is used to hiding her thoughts. The reason why she revealed her true intentions this time and showed resistance on her face is because she really thinks this matter is not feasible.

The main reason why she was so pessimistic, besides thinking that the plan was unreliable, was that she was a real insider.

She knew the true identity of Cuiqiao and could guess the relationship between Cuiqiao and Hong Siyu.

During the past few months of getting along with Hong Si, even Lin Xiaolu could see what the other party was thinking, and she was no exception.

"Hong Si likes Lin Yun" is an obvious fact in the eyes of the girls.

It is precisely because of this that Lin Xiaolu has always been wary of Hong Siyu, and Xia Liang has also been following the development of the situation with curiosity.

This development came to a standstill after November, because Hong Siyu suddenly took leave due to illness and abruptly disappeared from the girls' sight.

Now, the other party has regained the power of a magical girl, and returned to Fangting in this way, and also returned to the world of Delphinium in this way. From Xia Liang's perspective, this should be a rare window period for Hong Siyu.

If she were Hong Siyu and wanted to pursue "Lin Yun", she should seize the opportunity during this period and try to show her importance and feelings in front of him, so as to seek emotional success.

Xia Liang actually had no subjective opinion on the entanglement between Hong Si and Cui Que - after all, she was not Lin Xiaolu, and did not need to be wary of the unfounded "stepmother". If she had to say, her attitude was probably to wait and see.

Firstly, she has no right to interfere, and secondly, it is not a bad thing.

If Hong Si and Lin Yun can realize their relationship, it will not only be beneficial to her, but also to Lin Yun. It may be a little difficult for Lin Xiaolu to accept, but in the long run, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.

However, if Lin Xiaolu insists on interfering and tracking Hong Siyu's whereabouts, the probability of this matter being ruined will greatly increase.

Cuiqiao doted on her daughter so much that she herself was not aware of it, and neither was Lin Xiaolu, but Xia Liang saw it clearly.

If Lin Xiaolu really discovered something by following Hong Siyu and broke through this window paper, even if the relationship between Cuiqiao and Hong Siyu warmed up, she would probably choose to put it aside because of her daughter's opinion. At that time, the relationship between Hong Siyu and Lin Xiaolu would probably become rigid.

This is not what Xia Liang wants to see.

She doesn't mind if the relationship between everyone in the team becomes better for some reason, but she really doesn't want their relationship to deteriorate because of it.

If the so-called stalking ends up causing Lin Xiaolu and Hong Si to fall out, and everyone becomes disgusted with each other, and Cuique is caught in the middle and is not accepted by both sides, then it would be totally a loss.

However, these are the reasons that Xia Liang cannot say out loud.

Telling Lin Xiaolu the truth here can certainly dispel Lin Xiaolu's doubts and make her give up the practice of following. But by doing so, she would be unfaithful to Lin Xiaolu but unfaithful to Cuique. She would be caught in the middle, and she didn't want to be disliked for this.

That's why she expressed her opposition so clearly.

“Failure is the mother of success. Where you fall, there you must stand up.”

Unfortunately, Lin Xiaolu had no idea what she was thinking. She just glanced at her and then said confidently, "After the last failure, I learned from it and reviewed it many times. I have found the crux of the failure. I will definitely not make the same mistake again this time."

"What's the problem?"

"Mo Ke." Lin Xiaolu said firmly.

--"ha?"

Mo Ke, who was originally standing aside to watch the fun, suddenly became unhappy: "It was obviously you who got too close and were discovered, why are you blaming me!"

"In the final analysis, it's because you didn't tip us off in time! And you left your post at the most critical moment, causing us to lose the key source of information!"

Lin Xiaolu pointed at Mo Ke and said, "Anyway, you stay home this time, and we'll do it on our own!"

"Humph, do you think I'm willing to play this kind of house with you?"

Mo Ke snorted and turned around: "If you don't want me to go, then don't let me go. Lord Sower has his own things to do, so you can do whatever you want!"

The two of them were bickering over there, not caring whether what they said was appropriate or not. Bai Jingxuan, who was standing by, was quietly listening to the conversation between Lin Xiaolu and Mo Ke, but she had other thoughts in her mind.

I have to find a chance to tell dad secretly.

That was her idea.

The reason is very simple: "Mom and Dad" said so.

Lin Yun once told her not to tell anyone about his work at the Strategy Bureau, especially not to tell her "sister"; Cuique also told her privately not to reveal what happened in Lakeside Spring for the time being.

Bai Jingxuan didn't really understand why, but it didn't stop her from being an obedient child. Because of this, Bai Jingxuan had been acting out of character these days, keeping her mouth shut in front of Lin Xiaolu. Even though there were many flaws in the process, anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was hiding something, but Lin Xiaolu just couldn't get the answer.

Now that Lin Xiaolu has decided to follow Hong Siyu, it is very likely that Lin Yun's work in the Yi Ce Bureau will be exposed. Bai Jingxuan thinks that this will probably make it difficult for Lin Yun.

In this case, it is necessary for her to inform her father in advance so that he can be prepared and avoid being discovered.

So she had been waiting quietly by the side, and only after Mo Ke expressed his opinion did she find a break in the topic and interrupted a little awkwardly: "Well, sister, I don't really want to go out today. Since you said so, I will stay with Mo Ke..."

"Just follow me." Lin Xiaolu said expressionlessly.

"Eh?"

Bai Jingxuan's shoulders trembled slightly, her heart skipped a beat, and then she blinked guiltily: "But if Moko stays at home alone, there will be no one to play with him..."

"That guy is very smart. He will sneak out to fool around when no one else is at home. You don't have to worry about him getting bored."

Lin Xiaolu reached out and placed her hands on Bai Jingxuan's shoulders: "As for you, you are the one who looks most like a traitor among the three of us. You knew about the affairs of Lixing District but did not report it, which has aroused my suspicion."

"I really don't know anything." Bai Jingxuan struggled to refute.

"No problem, you don't have to know anything, but you have to follow us today."

Lin Xiaolu flicked her forehead lightly: “Let me keep an eye on you, little traitor.”
