“How can we teach you when underwater people and humans are fundamentally different? But this beautiful lady named Lu Yun, you’ve never mentioned her before, and she seems even more powerful than us. Why don’t you learn from her?”
“Oh, about that, hehe,” I laughed it off and then fell silent.
It wasn’t long after Xuanyuan (1) left that I thought we should have arrived, but then I heard Lu Yun call out, “Nado, look!” I hurried forward a few steps and found that the alley was brightly lit, and it was barricaded. At the entrance of the alley, I saw many people gathered around a well, working on it, with Ruan Xiuwen conspicuously directing operations. I silently cursed, “It’s the people from Organization X.” I told Lu Yun, “And the one in command has seen me before; he’s already suspicious of me. We can’t let him see us.” With that, I quickly led the others away from there.
Organization X is not just any organization; their operational capabilities are as formidable as a military unit. The pedestrians outside the alley could very well be their people, and once they spot anything suspicious, they would swiftly and efficiently identify your identity, taking decisive action if necessary. Not to mention, Ruan Xiuwen was already wary of me; if he spotted us, we’d have no chance. It seems Organization X has discovered the location of the device. It’s actually quite simple; if I could figure it out, Ruan Xiuwen, who should have been well-informed from the start, certainly could as well. I began to feel anxious; once Organization X got hold of that device, it would be impossible for Shui Sheng to transform into a human peacefully.
“I’ll go check out the situation. Don’t worry, it’ll be fine,” Lu Yun said to me before gracefully walking into the alley alone. I was secretly sweating for her. After a while, she came out:
“Worrying now won’t help. Let’s go to the café across the street and wait for a bit,” she said confidently, and I had no choice but to follow.
