But the girl behind her seemed to appear out of thin air, and she didn't hear any sound at all.
Judging from Ying's years of experience walking between life and death, if someone can approach her quietly, the other person's strength must definitely surpass hers.
However, she knew that being close to the other party was not the worst.
The next second, as Ying expected, the door creaked and two people, one tall and one short, walked out.
When surrounded by Ming Yue and the other two, Ying did not choose to resist with force at the first moment.
She knew very well that she was here to negotiate, not to be the king of dusk street.
If it weren't for the bad luck of picking a time when the other party was dealing with personal problems, things would undoubtedly be much simpler.
Sakura calmed down and looked calm, as if the person who was caught was not herself:
"I'm sorry to bother you, but are you affiliated with the Fire Moth?"
Her body was between relaxation and tension. Once the other party denied it, she would jump down the stairs and end this misunderstanding.
But Ying felt that the probability of her making a misjudgment would not exceed one in ten.
There was no immediate answer. Although Ming Yue had not yet joined the Fire Moth, he would definitely fight for his own seat there in the future.
What's more, even though Sakura was very good at disguise, her face that looked like a certain scumbag priestess still allowed him to recognize her identity.
In the pre-Houkai civilization, only a fusion warrior who grew fox ears after fusing with the Houkai factor fully met this condition.
After finding out the other party's background, he suddenly thought:
Based on the current timeline, Sakura definitely hasn't joined the Fire Moth yet.
To be precise, he did not join the camp led by Dr. Mei.
After all, Dr. Mei hasn't graduated from Qianyu College yet. The last time he went to Changkong City, he had a good trip with Ai Li.
"If that's the case, then she's probably still working for a high-ranking member of the Fire Moth."
"Perhaps, she has been forced to join the poison pupa at this time."
Connecting the relevant clues in his mind, Ming Yue suddenly understood why this pink-haired crying monster appeared in Dusk Street.
If the person behind the scenes hadn't given the order, the other party would never have come here.
As for what the order was, that's needless to say—
Most likely, just like in the game, they are here to investigate Honkai energy and kill people to hide the secret.
But the other party asked him right away if he was a member of the Fire Moth, which made Ming Yue keenly aware of his blind spot.
Therefore, he looked at Sakura, noncommittal:
"If you can't give me a satisfactory answer, the consequences of trespassing will be a felony."
Seeing that the man's eyes were not evasive and he was obviously full of confidence, Ying suddenly got the answer.
Then, to ensure that her imagination was consistent with the facts, she spoke tentatively:
"I'm a member of the Poison Pupa Special Operations Team, codename: Forget-Me-Not."
"Whose orders are you following to wipe out the Three Dragons Society?"
After hearing this, Ming Yue finally understood why this pink-haired girl came to him.
It was obvious that the big man behind the Three Dragons Society was Ying's superior. If she killed the other party's dog quietly, it would inevitably lead to revenge.
Judging others by his own standards, Mingyue, like Ying, fell into the same misunderstanding.
He thought that Sakura's superiors sent agents to investigate because they were concerned about the Sanlong Society.
But what he didn't know was that the minister didn't care at all who was in charge of Dusk Street.
Even though the Sanlong Society had made many contributions to the minister, the other party still treated the Sanlong Society as a stray dog on the roadside and didn't want to pay any attention to it.
Therefore, under the double misjudgment, Ming Yue responded:
"That's not your concern."
"If you want to know the answer, let him come himself."
Seeing this, Sakura instantly made a judgment based on the other party's tough attitude -
This mysterious member of the Fire Moth is definitely here to target that scumbag!
Ying felt very excited when she thought that the old man had been targeted by the higher-ups.
As long as that guy died, she could take Ling away to live in a new city without being coerced by anyone.
Suppressing her inner joy, Ying said calmly:
"My Lord, I am presumptuous."
"I'll leave now."
Seeing her turn around and want to leave, how could Ming Yue allow the prey that came to him to escape from his hands?
Giving Aponya a look, he turned and went back into the office.
A few seconds later, Sakura, with lifeless eyes, followed Aponya into the room, like a walking corpse.
Alicia closed the door considerately and prepared to go play with the lazy cat downstairs.
She knew exactly what happened between her boyfriend and Aponya.
But the clearer she understood, the more relieved she felt.
What Aponya wanted was for the children in the nursing home to grow up healthily and pose no threat to her.
While traveling with Mingyue, Alicia had seen countless thieving cats, from passionate young girls to elegant and dignified noble ladies, basically witnessing the diversity of species.
However, her boyfriend still chose to accompany her, which speaks volumes.
"It just so happens that A-Yue seems to have grown again recently. I definitely can't take him down by myself."
"Let these naughty guys drain his energy first, and then I'll deliver the final blow~"
......
In the office, slumped on the sofa, Ying felt the urge to give up on herself.
Just now, she couldn't control herself and told the other party all the information, even her measurements.
Although Sakura had heard that the official members of the Fire Moth were very terrifying, she still felt quite frustrated when she encountered such a powerless situation for the first time.
Seeing Ming Yue sorting out the information and looking at her, Ying could only try her best to remain calm:
“These are all the things I can touch upon.”
"As for that minister, even the captain in the poisonous chrysalis doesn't know his detailed information."
"Not to mention me, a non-staff member."
After exchanging a glance with Aponya and seeing her nod, Mingyue calmly explained:
"I'm so sorry, Sakura."
“But I had to do it.”
I thought Mingyue was trying to find some dirt on the minister from her, but Ying didn't care:
"It doesn't matter. Not only you, but I also want to get rid of him."
"You heard it just now. That scumbag took my sister hostage. I will never forgive him."
Taking the black tea brewed by Aponya, Sakura, with her long hair draped over her shoulders, continued:
"That guy has a very bad character. Once word gets back about what happened on Dusk Street, he'll either back down or become even more aggressive."
"I can go back and collect evidence of his crime for you, but you must protect Ling."
"If that's not possible, I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do."
Glancing at the schedule from the corner of his eye, Ming Yue weighed the pros and cons and said:
"Protecting Ling is difficult to achieve. We can't stay in Changkong City forever."
Sakura was a little disappointed with his answer, but she didn't complain.
Others don’t owe you anything, so why should you accept this condition?
However, the other party's next words made her mood take a sudden turn:
"If you agree, I can take Ling to Dusk Street."
"Of course, it's not just her, you can stay here forever."
Sakura stood up almost without hesitation when she heard that her sister could be released from that cage.
"When to set off?"
Putting down the calendar, Mingyue gave the answer:
"I happen to be going to Changkong City to pick someone up tomorrow, so it would be best if we could do it tonight."
13. Door-to-door delivery, compensation for overdue delivery
Late at night, Alicia was driving a heavy off-road vehicle at high speed on the highway.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Ming Yue looked at the jungle flying by on the right, having become accustomed to his girlfriend's violent skills.
This car was a new model that he bought when he went to Mu Continent, but unknowingly, it had become Ai Li's loyal pet.
At the same time, Sakura, who was sitting in the back row, had to be on high alert because of the strong push on her back, for fear of being thrown away.
After this incident, she would never let that pink-haired guy be her driver again.
Other drivers want money, but this guy wants his life!
Steering the wheel effortlessly, Alysia slowed down slightly based on the navigation information:
"Ayue, we'll be at the Changkong City G13 toll station in ten minutes~"
"It's at most half an hour's journey to the location Sakura gave. I'm sure you're ready~?"
Glancing at the rearview mirror, Ming Yue saw Ying's tense expression and repeated the action plan:
"He's in the dark, we're in the light. Going into full-scale war with that guy at this stage is extremely risky."
"So, our goal tonight is to take Ling away from the room without anyone noticing."
Nodding in agreement, Sakura bit her lip, trying to cheer herself up.
She knew very well that the success rate of tonight's operation was visibly high.
Before setting off, Ying deliberately sent some specious information to the other party on Dusk Street to delay time.
Taking advantage of the information gap, she could be sure that the old man would not send more people to watch over Ling at this time.
If we miss this opportunity, it will be extremely difficult for Ling and I to get out of this situation in the future.
With both hands on the scabbard, Sakura was lost in thought.
She didn't know what the future would be like, but it would definitely be much better than being a bird in a cage.
Soon, the vehicle disappeared at the end of the road and plunged into the city.
As soon as Alicia stepped on the brakes and parked the car at the entrance of an alley where there was no surveillance, the rescue operation was announced to begin.
"Stay in the car. If anything goes wrong, remember to alert me."
After changing into a yellow deliveryman's uniform, Ming Yue put on a helmet, carried a sealed plastic bag, and headed straight for the residential complex across the street.
After using a cigarette to get through to the security guard at the door, he ran towards Unit 3 with a clear purpose.
On the way, Ming Yue noticed that many agents glanced at him, but because he was wearing a yellow robe, the other party just glanced at him and did not pay any further attention.
After all, even though it was late at night, there was always a shortage of deliverymen in big cities.
At present, this has become a product of the times that has been subtly accepted by people.
After successfully reaching the elevator entrance on the first floor, Ming Yue went straight in and pressed the button for the 10th floor.
Of course he knew that Ying's home was on the 12th floor, but Ying also said that there were surveillance cameras near her door.
Once any abnormal situation occurs, the agents waiting outside will rush over immediately.
As for climbing in through the window, not to mention the time it takes to install the burglar-proof net, the height of the 12th floor alone is enough to cause a headache.
