"Then just call me by my name. Last time, you caused people to raise their age estimate by five years with just one sentence."

Looking at Zhu Yiyi's slightly puffed face in the rearview mirror, Sean's face showed a hint of helplessness.

"That's just because they accidentally misjudged you because of your mature attire."

"You mean I look old?"

“No, not at all.”

Although they seemed to be making a lot of noise on their own, the teasing still eased the atmosphere a little, and Chizuru Yuzen's expression also relaxed a lot.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work for us."

"It's okay. It's just my job."

Completely different from her attitude towards Sean, Zhu Yiyi quickly put on a decent smile and spoke to them.

Sean also nodded slightly and turned the car in another direction along the fork in the road ahead.

"As Miss Zhu said, this is our duty. Miss Yuzen doesn't need to worry about it."

"If you keep calling me that, I'll beat you to death."

Zhu Yiyi's voice became more relaxed after they got to know each other better, which made Sean laugh dryly. He gently stepped on the accelerator to increase the speed of the car again.

Moreover, out of the corner of his eyes, he glanced at the reflection in the side-view mirror, watching the vehicle driving silently behind them.

Sure enough, he caught up quickly.

Chapter 389 Tracker

Obviously, the other party was not stupid enough to do anything in public. He just followed them silently like a shadow, just like a surveillance camera.

But even so, Sean quietly increased his speed and changed his originally planned route, trying to get rid of the other party.

Duncan did not provide any prior notification, so the night residence of Ji Hui and others was still unknown to the people of Starfall City.

He also deliberately arranged for Ji Hui and others to change cars so that they could conceal their address and location tonight and at least have a normal night's rest.

However, even though he replaced the car with a brand new one in a deserted place, it seemed to have been noticed by those who were interested, and they tried to find out the location of Ji Hui and his family's residence.

As for what plans to be carried out next and when to carry them out, he himself finds it difficult to determine.

We have to leave as soon as possible. If we go around in circles, it will make it easier to expose our whereabouts.

If it really doesn't work, we can only let them stay temporarily and then change the address.

Thinking of this, he raised his mobile phone, controlled the steering wheel with one hand, and sent a message to Zhu Yiyi's account.

Zhu Yiyi took out her cell phone while it was vibrating, and a thoughtful look flashed in her eyes as a smile slowly appeared on her face.

"Speaking of which, the scenery of Starfall City at night is also very nice. It will be completely dark in a while, and the effect should be even better then."

"Sean, please drive a little further. I remember seeing several places much better from the suspended lane than directly. I just happened to catch them, so we don't have to go back and make the same mistake."

"Oh, I see."

Zhu Yiyi's suggestive words made Sean nod, and the speed that had been increasing unconsciously began to increase again.

At the same time, he also looked at Zhu Yiyi in the rearview mirror and exchanged a slight glance with her.

Ji Hui and others are guests, and these issues are problems that they should solve between the two of them.

That's why they didn't say much, but continued to pretend nothing happened, driving their cars and moving through the city.

Those vehicles seemed to have noticed that they had been discovered as they accelerated. After trying to follow them for a while, they retreated, making Sean secretly relieved.

However, it only took him a breath to regain his spirit.

The other party did not give up, but chose to hide again after being exposed.

Their route was probably already known to the other party, and there should be surveillance personnel stationed at other checkpoints.

Be careful

After taking a look at the new route and hotel plan that Zhu Yiyi sent to his mobile phone after the changes and notifications, Sean stopped his original back and forth movements and started to officially head to the hotel.

4. Their private actions did not attract the attention of Ji Hui and others in the car. It was just that when they were showing them the night view of the Starfall City like a tour guide, their attention was focused on the novel facilities.

0Of course, Rika Funadotari is not among them.

Hiss. Ever since she boarded a plane, she has developed PTSD towards any vehicle that can travel at high speeds, fearing that she would fly out if she wasn't careful. Therefore, she kept a pale face throughout the whole process and did not appreciate the aftertaste of the night view at all.

What's more, once we get there, it means it's almost time for me to confess my feelings to Ji Hui.

But because of this, her mood became quite uneasy.

Although she always thought that it didn't matter if she was discovered, and she just had to be an unknown ghost, but after she was actually exposed and aroused the strong dissatisfaction of Yu Ran Chizuru and Yu Mingxue, she began to become more panicked.

When Ji Hui found out, would he be as angry as they were? No, would he be even angrier than them, or even unwilling to accept himself?

Only now did she finally realize that her original slightly complacent thoughts were actually too arrogant, making her like a child who had done something wrong and could not make amends. She began to fear the situation when she really admitted her mistake.

So along the way, her mind was full of how she should face Ji Hui when the time comes, and she had no time to think about anything else.

And when they finally arrived at the booked hotel, she just stayed in a not very conspicuous place, quietly avoiding Ji Hui's gaze.

There was no way. Now, when she saw his face, she felt like pus was flowing out of her whole body.

"Once you get to your room, you can wash up quickly. You can rest in another hotel."

Amid their confused gazes, Sean made excuses with a normal expression.

"After all, I see that everyone is very tired, so I thought of letting everyone rest for a while somewhere closer to the dining area, so that we can both get by without delay."

"Oh... okay."

There was a hint of doubt in Ji Hui's eyes, but he still regarded it as a treat from Sean and the others, and couldn't help but speak.

"Actually, you don't have to bother to this extent. We're not that picky."

"It's okay. It's not that much of a hassle for us."

Sean smiled and shook his head, inviting them to enter the room for the time being.

"Okay, everyone, take a short break. Zhu Yiyi and I will be here to take you to dinner in about half an hour. If you have anything else, just call us."

So, after bringing Ji Hui and others into the room and closing the door, Sean also slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"hiss"

However, a sudden chill on his face made him shiver slightly. He quickly moved to the side and put some distance between himself and Zhu Yiyi who was holding the mineral water bottle.

"Are you a devil? Putting ice water on your face in the middle of winter."

"It's not the outside world. Starfall City is protected by various magical barriers. It's almost spring all year round. What's there to be afraid of?"

Throwing the bottle of water into Sean's hands, Zhu Yiyi took the lead in unscrewing the bottle cap and began to drink it, making the curves of her suit rise and fall with the movement of her throat.

And Sean also sighed and drank some water to moisten his slightly dry throat, letting his body emit a slight pleasure under the flow of clear water.

However, this brief moment of comfort did not last long, and it ended when Zhu Yiyi handed her the black metal of the pistol from under her coat.

"Our people have discovered that some people are planning to plant a bomb here. We have arranged in advance that only Ji Hui and others will live on this floor. They took the bait too quickly."

"I really hope there will be at least something more difficult, or a little more clever."

9 Sean sighed and let Zhu Yiyi pat his shoulder.

"Okay, stop complaining. Two people against thirteen, can you handle it?"

"Have you forgotten who taught you self-defense?"

After checking the condition of the gun barrel, Sean's expression became a little colder. He put the magazine on his waist and walked towards the lower level with Zhu Yiyi.

Chapter 390 Ji Hui's Strangeness

"Although the feeling on the plane is not bad, it is still the most comfortable on the ground."

Liu Yu Ran Chizuru stretched slightly and said with some emotion.

Yu Mingxue, who was beside her, poured three cups of water and handed one of them to Yu Ran Chizuru.

"Ji Hui, drink some water."

Yu Mingxue said with a smile, but when she saw Ji Hui's expression as he looked out the window, a hint of doubt appeared on her face.

"Ji Hui...?"

It seemed as if she was thinking about something, and her expression was very deep, which also made Chizuru Hazen turn her head.

"Ji Hui, what's wrong with you? Why are you so quiet all of a sudden?"

“I just discovered something.”

Ji Hui's calm words made Yu Ran Qian He and Yu Ming Xue's eyes show a slight strangeness, and they looked at each other.

He didn't turn around, but continued to look down at the brightly lit city through the window, and his tone was tinged with an unclear color.

"Chizuru and Xiaoxue, you probably already knew this, but you didn't tell me directly because of the circumstances."

Did he notice what happened to Rika?

Yu Ran Chizuru and Yu Mingxue's heartbeats became more intense. They looked at each other, as if asking each other if they had leaked the secret unknowingly.

"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent."

Seeing the hesitant expressions of the two girls through the reflection of the glass, Ji Hui couldn't help but sigh.

"You guys, I'm not a child anymore. How could I not accept this kind of thing? What's more, the situation was similar before, so I was mentally prepared."

"Sorry, Ji Hui, we just thought of a place and will find a suitable time to explain it. After all, this matter is very important, and we don't want to muddle through like this."

Seeing Ji Hui's melancholy look, Yu Mingxue said with some reluctance.

"Well, we were thinking of bringing Rika along tonight to officially tell you. This kind of thing is also very important to her."

"Lixiang?"

Ji Hui blinked, a look of considerable confusion evident on his face.

"What does Li Xiang have to do with this? Could it be that she was also being chased along the way?"

His words also made Yu Ran Chizuru and Yu Mingxue slightly stunned, and they asked in astonishment.

"what?"

After a brief silence of two or three seconds, Ji Hui quickly spoke.

"Wait a minute, shouldn't you have discovered that someone was following and trying to kill me, so you're hiding it?"

The two girls' eyes widened even wider, showing their confusion, which made Ji Hui realize that something seemed to be wrong.

"No, then what did you originally want to say? And what about Rika? What's the official timing?"

"Ahem, it's nothing, nothing. We were talking about this as well. We were talking about this as well. After all, Lixiang is also a demon."

Yu Ran Chizuru suddenly started to cough dryly, and desperately winked at Yu Mingxue, causing her to speak awkwardly.

"Yes, yes, we wanted to wait until tonight to talk about it, but we didn't expect you to find out in advance."

"But how did you find out that someone was following us?"

As they changed the topic, Ji Hui's attention also shifted to the other side, and his expression became calm again.

"I can use my magical eyes to penetrate walls, so when I looked down, I saw a group of armed people coming towards us."

"They're currently trapped in the underground garage by Sean and Zhu Yiyi. To avoid any adverse effects from excessive noise, they've chosen not to escalate the conflict. They're confined to a human-to-human battle, with no intention of attracting the magical girl."

After Ji Hui's explanation, Yu Ran Chizuru and Yu Mingxue also stood up immediately, but were pushed down by him.

"You two wait here, I'll just go over and take a look."

"Sean and Zhu Yiyi didn't tell us because they didn't want us to know. A large group of people rushing downstairs seems a bit too blatant."

"But they're coming for you."

"That's why I have to go down and take a look."

Ji Hui smiled and gently touched Yu Ran Chizuru's cheek, signaling them not to worry.

"Besides, I've seen it myself. They just have some guns and bullets. They pose no threat to me at all. Otherwise, I would rather hide here."

"So don't worry, I just went over to take a look."

Seeing that he seemed quite persistent, Yu Ran Chizuru and Yu Mingxue hesitated for a while before nodding reluctantly.

"In that case, go ahead. We'll be waiting for you here. Be safe."
