At the Nanyan Hotel, on the other side of the third floor's restroom.
A girl, groggy, walked out of the restroom, "Weird... why is it dark, hmm?"
"Where did everyone go?"
"Is there a power outage?"
The girl wandered confusedly, suddenly stepping into a puddle of liquid.
"Why is there water..."
"And, what's with this strong fishy smell, ugh... not good, I'm going to throw up again..."
"Ugh!"
The woman couldn't hold it in and started vomiting against the wall.
"Ugh... Li Yuan, that jerk, how dare he yell at me, I was just worried about him... and I even offered him soda..."
"If it weren't for... if it weren't for my previous feelings for him, I wouldn't bother with him at all... yeah... just couldn't care less..."
The girl leaned against the wall as she groped her way in the dark.
"Alright, time to go home... can't stay here any longer, otherwise... otherwise, I'll have to pay, have to pay the overnight fee..."
"Damn capitalists."
The girl exited the restroom and then groped her way forward in the dark, somehow, the fishy smell grew even stronger.
"It's so fishy."
"And it's been so noisy here since a while ago..."
In the darkness, several women pulled out uniform standard weapons and walked towards the girl, then suddenly stabbed towards her!
Thud, thud!
Two muffled sounds came from behind her. The girl turned around in confusion, but there was nothing behind her.
Strange, it seemed like she heard something just now?
The girl shook her head and continued walking forward, while in a corner she couldn't see, two merfolk were each choking a worker bee and covering their mouths.
"Shh."
"The Sea King said, let her go."
The girl groped her way downstairs, and several more worker bees attacked her, then were suddenly grabbed by the merfolk and pulled into the darkness.
...
On the top floor of Nanyan.
The Queen Bee, sensing the various reports coming back from the worker bees, was somewhat puzzled, "Hmm? What is that fish doing, is he playing spies with me?"
Saying this, the Queen Bee directly took out the communicator to contact the raven.
"Hey, stinky bird, what's 002 up to?!"
The raven's voice came through the communicator immediately after.
"Who knows~"
"Maybe he saw his old flame, teehee~"
Teehee?
A vein throbbed on the Queen Bee's forehead, "Give the communicator to 002!"
After a moment, Li Yuan's voice came through the communicator, "Let that woman go."
"What did you say?"
"If she's appeared here, then we can't let her leave, don't you understand that?"
"My task is to deal with Chu Yang; dispersing the crowd is your job, but you specifically left one behind."
"So I'm dealing with it now, aren't I!"
"I suggest you'd better not touch her."
"What do you mean, are you threatening me?"
The Queen Bee's brows furrowed, and at that moment, the raven's voice came through the communicator again.
"Old lady, getting angry will only give you wrinkles~"
Old...
Old lady?
The corners of the Queen Bee's mouth began to twitch uncontrollably.
"Ah... old lady?"
No, can't get angry...
Can't get angry...
The Queen Bee tried to take a deep breath, then reopened the communicator.
"'Old lady' is an outdated term for me; nowadays, it's fashionable to say 'an experienced and elegant lady.'"
"But since you're so concerned about me, why not come over to my side, and I'll tell you a secret not known to many."
"What kind of secret?" the raven's voice came through.
"For example, this 'experienced and elegant lady' has been collaborating with KFC for years and has already opened several branches, currently planning to launch some new products!"
...
The raven shrugged while standing over the surveillance in the Nanyan Hotel.
Then continued to silently act as a camera.
Through this 'Inviting the Guest into the Urn' scenario, the raven had a clear view of Chu Yang's abilities.
His physical capabilities were indeed similar to those of the merfolk, with better reflexes and seemingly some knowledge of martial arts.
He could indeed handle a merman on his own.
But here, there were a total of two hundred merfolk!
Even if Li Yuan diverted twenty or so merfolk to protect that girl, Chu Yang's escape would still be impossible.
"Hmm?"
Just then, a dense sound of footsteps suddenly came from the darkness.
Numerous women in uniform attire swarmed in!
They were wielding standard-issue short knives, clearly targeting the girl.
The raven sighed upon seeing this, "To think she called all the worker bees here. The old lady is really going all out, probably furious."
...
Sensing the arrival of the group of women, Li Yuan quickly looked towards the raven.
"001, help me out."
The raven shook its head, "No can do. I'm here to record, and besides, you don't have the authority to command me, not even to ask for a favor. I only obey orders from the great lord."
"Also, you're not allowed to go unless you want me to report you to Lord Os."
Hearing this, Li Yuan glanced at Chu Yang in front of him, then took a step forward and rushed towards Chu Yang!
"Then I'll just complete my mission!"
With that said, the merfolk went completely mad, and Li Yuan joined the fray, pinning Chu Yang against the wall with a punch, unleashing a tempest of attacks!
Chu Yang was beaten without a chance to retaliate. Clenching his teeth, he suddenly pulled out a grenade and yanked the pin!
A grenade?
He wanted to die together?
Seeing this, Li Yuan instantly retreated as Chu Yang threw the grenade at him!
Boom!!
A loud explosion resounded, and a terrible shockwave swept out immediately!
Dust flew, and Li Yuan was blown back by the explosion but wasn't much harmed.
He turned and rushed into the smoke, but Chu Yang and the two policemen's figures had disappeared, leaving a large crater on the ground.
Seeing this, Li Yuan waved his hand, and a swarm of merfolk instantly leaped down!
"Chase after them!"
