Wu Xiaode shared his location with Xia Huilan, then stepped out of the restaurant and waited in the manor's square.
He squatted on the ground, finished the last bowl of noodles, and opened a chilled cola to quench his thirst in one gulp.
Ah...
It felt unexpectedly comforting.
If only he could take a nap, that would be even better.
Wu Xiaode yawned.
No, he'd find a place to sleep after meeting Sister Lan.
While he was thinking, a streak of light fell from the sky.
Xia Ni.
She looked at Wu Xiaode, smiled, and said, "I was supposed to help you at midnight, but I got interrupted by those from the Holy Sect, Sister Lan was very angry."
"There shouldn't be anyone from the Holy Sect coming to kill again," Wu Xiaode said.
"Really?" Xia Ni asked.
"Mhm."
"That's great."
Xia Ni gently embraced him, shot up into the sky, and flew towards the Capital.
...
Royal Science Research Institute.
Xia Huilan folded her arms and scrutinized Wu Xiaode with a critical eye.
