We moved to Golden Courtyard

“My master, Xia Ya, is a very perceptive person. I think... he must have noticed what I’m doing investigating him tonight.

"recent?"

"Hmm." Xu Qi nodded. After all... ever since Xia Ya came to visit him, he had never relaxed his investigation of Xia Ya.

However, he certainly couldn't do this personally, lest he alert the enemy.

But now it seems... they're all pretty much the same.

Mei took out her phone. Tonight was precious; she'd already wasted so much time in the car... cough! She couldn't afford to dwell on it now; she had to hurry.

"First, notify Ellie and the others. If Char isn't at the villa, it's very likely..."

Before Mei could finish speaking, Xu Qi suddenly pulled her into his arms! Before Mei could react, she felt Xu Qi's body tremble slightly, and at the same time, there was a loud sound of flesh colliding!

Xu Qi blocked the uninvited guest's palm with one hand, and then unleashed his strength, easily forcing the guest back.

At this moment, Mei finally realized what was happening. The instant she broke free from Xu Qi's embrace, she instinctively stepped in front of him, protecting him firmly behind her.

"who!?"

Without a sword in my hand, I can't unleash any of my power—Mei thought with some distress.

Xu Qi gazed at the girl in front of him and suddenly smiled.

The initial panic caused by this sudden attack subsided and calmed down.

"It seems you two have a very good relationship..." The woman emerged from the shadows with cat-like steps, and Xu Qi couldn't help but show a look of amazement.

Her long, purplish-red hair was tied up behind her back, and a black outer garment hung on her shoulders like a cape. The soft white inner lining tightly hugged her graceful figure, highlighting her impressive bust.

To call her a beauty is to belittle her.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Kafka. You... are you here to see Char?"

Was she trying to negotiate? Mei took the initiative to step back to Xu Qi's side, but still one step ahead of him, so that she could intervene first in case of any danger.

"No."

Xu Qi said this without even blinking.

"Heh... little guy, do you think I'd believe such a lie?"

"You have someone else with you, right? Call her out too!"

Kafka shrugged and looked up at the tree beside her.

A woman completely shrouded in a black robe gracefully leaped down from the tree. As for how to tell that she was a woman, it was simply because her breasts, which were about the same size as Kafka's, were excessively attractive.

"Siolla, didn't you say you were 100% sure you wouldn't be discovered?"

"Please call me Raven, thank you."

Okay~~

Xu Qi smiled and said, "What if I was just trying to trick you?"

Kafka maintained her composed demeanor, beckoning to Xu Qi's left hand with her finger and saying, "You've already aimed, what's the point of saying all this?"

We've been discovered...

Xu Qi casually threw out a card that had no power whatsoever.

This scene caused both Kafka and Raven to feel a chill run down their spines.

"As you can see, it's just a card. I'm not a master of concealed weapons, so there's no need for me to expose myself."

“Kid.” Raven stepped forward; she wasn’t as easy to talk to as Kafka. “Playing tricks on us like this will only make you and your girlfriend die faster.”

Mei frowned – this intense killing intent made her very uncomfortable.

Xu Qi let out a long sigh.

Give me a reason.

“You had Xin’an secretly investigate Xia Ya’s affairs, and he already knew that. So he also knew that you would come to him tonight. The plan has already begun, and no one can stop it.”

……

Is there anything else?

“Oh, right~” Kafka smiled. “Don’t worry, we won’t kill you. After all, Char instructed us to spare your life.”

"But I can cripple her, and it doesn't matter whether my girlfriend lives or dies, right?"

Kafka frowned, not because of the other party's fearless attitude, but because... she suddenly realized that she seemed to have been tricked into revealing a lot of information.

"So you really aren't with Char Aznable. Collaborators? Probably... In other words, a terrorist organization."

He guessed it after all...

Only then did a murderous glint flash in Kafka's eyes.

Xu Qi patted Mei's shoulder and whispered, "Go inside the villa; you'll find what you need there."

Mei glanced at Xu Qi, but didn't say anything more. Instead, she quickly crossed the villa's wall and left the area.

Raven frowned, sensing something was wrong, and quickly gave chase!

Neither Xu Qi nor Kafka chose to stop any of this.

It had a distinct feel to it, like kings versus kings, generals versus generals.

"I'm curious, you're only 24, full of youthful vigor, aren't you tempted by me?"

"Old woman, don't you ever look in the mirror? Even if I had a dog around you, it wouldn't get aroused."

Kafka wasn't annoyed; she simply said, "Psychological warfare won't work on me."

Xu Qi got into position, his eyes looking incredibly serious at that moment.

"Judging from your consistently relaxed attitude, you have absolute confidence in your abilities, right?"

“That’s right. If it weren’t for this country’s excessively strict gun control, you would be lying on the ground by now.”

However, Xu Qi shook his head, and it was unclear what he was denying.

"Shouldn't you do something about your girlfriend?"

Inside the villa right behind the two, the sound of shattering glass reached their ears clearly. Xu Qi knew that Mei had already entered the villa.

So naturally, the raven should be the same.

"rest assured."

At this point, Xu Qi's tone of voice became much calmer and gentler.

"It will be over soon..."

······

Meanwhile, outside the Jiuting base, when Alicia anxiously received the call, she picked it up and saw it was from Mebius.

"Hello? Professor?"

"Xu Qi and his team are in trouble. Tonight won't go smoothly. This Xia Ya must have found other collaborators! Move! Quickly! Protect Klein!"

Ellie immediately opened the car door and jumped out.

Sakura, Pado, and Fu Hua followed closely behind.

Each of them was holding a cylindrical robot in their hands; this... was the key to the success of tonight's operation.

27. Kafka

Under the cover of night, two figures clashed, the sound of fists colliding echoing frequently. The muffled sounds, brimming with explosive power, conveyed the terrifying force of both sides.

After exchanging only a dozen or so blows, Kafka's composure had already vanished.

This guy... what incredible strength!

Xu Qi's expression remained unchanged; even the fierce battle could not disturb his calm and serene state of mind.

I already mentioned it before...

Why do you think Fu Hua calls Xu Qi "Brother Xu Qi"?

The sticky hands restricted Kafka's movements, and then, in the face of her opponent's wide-eyed stare, she raised her knee and struck her opponent squarely in the abdomen without any mercy!

For Kafka, this seemingly simple blow almost made her think that Xu Qi had kicked her intestines to pieces!

Without giving his opponent a chance to retaliate, Xu Qi quickly transformed his raised knee into a sweeping leg, which struck Kafka's lower body. Kafka didn't dare to take the hit head-on.

Kafka was afraid he would break her leg!

As she fell to the ground, Kafka, enduring the pain in her abdomen, tried to reach her hands towards her waist.

But Xu Qi was even faster than her!

Seeing Kavka fall to the ground, he decisively pressed down on her! His legs locked around Kavka's joints, while his hands firmly gripped her wrists.

Complete suppression!

We lost...

Kafka was breathing heavily, her chest heaving, making one worry that the thin buttons on her white shirt might break. All of this was observed by Xu Qi.

There was nothing he could do; he was basically half-supported by Kafka at that moment.

If someone who doesn't know the truth saw this, they might think Xu Qi was going to... uh... force himself on her!

"Wow, that's really impressive..." Kafka no longer had any intention of teasing her, after all, losing like this made it really hard for her to maintain her usual composure.

"Your body isn't even human."

"Same here, didn't you also bring two completely illegal things?"

Kafka raised an eyebrow—this guy is incredibly perceptive.

Xu Qi suddenly released Kafka's wrist! Just as she was about to make a move, she found that Xu Qi had already quickly touched her waist.

By the time she realized what was happening, two pistols were already pointed at Kafka's forehead.

Xu Qi slowly stood up.

"Without this thing, I wouldn't know how to end the night. Thanks."

"Are you really only 24 years old? Just graduated from university?" With her hands raised, Kafka stood up, not daring to show any intention of resisting.

"Thank you, that's right, it's just that the experience was a little different before."

Can different experiences really give you this kind of skill and adaptability? Are you kidding me? That's way too much... You're threatening a terrorist with a gun right now...

I hope you have a clear idea of ​​just how awesome you are doing.

"You've got me under control, but what about your girlfriend?"

"It should be over by now."

Kafka: ? ? ?

The two entered the villa, where the security door had already been opened, and what they saw was a complete mess.

There were broken pieces of debris everywhere, and it was clear that a fierce fight had taken place inside the house.

Even now, Kafka still held a sliver of hope that her accomplices had subdued the guy named Mei, so that there was still room for negotiation.

then……

"Huh? Ah... What a coincidence, you got taken down too."

Kafka clicked her tongue – was there more than one oddball like this?

Inside the living room, Mei held an unsharpened longsword to Raven's neck.

Although it was unsharpened, Raven was certain that with the girl's swordsmanship, it wouldn't be difficult for her to deliver a satisfying blow.

Raven saw the two pistols in Xu Qi's hand and realized that tonight's operation had been a complete failure.

"Mei, go find a rope."

"Ok!"

Seeing that Xu Qi was alright, Mei breathed a sigh of relief.

He put away the longsword he had found in Char's living room, and a short while later, he found two thick hemp ropes and tied Kafka and Raven together.
