In this cyberpunk era, why are you still playing the traditional villain?

Let's leave aside how Director Su will invite his young master out for dinner, but it's true that it might not be easy to get him to agree.

Because quite a few people have been looking for him recently.

The next morning, Xu Shi had barely arrived at the company and hadn't even settled into his seat when he discovered that his phone had been ringing off the hook.

They're still fighting now.

Upon seeing the other party's number, Xu Shi paused, his expression suddenly turning playful.

"Hey?"

He answered the call leisurely, as if he were taking advantage of work time to chat on the phone and slack off.

Unfortunately, the caller was unromantic, speaking in a hurried and cold tone.

"I've done everything you asked me to do. When are you going to release my sister?"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 180 Don't ask me if it was my influence, just tell me whether you did it or not.

Oops.

How could we forget about our adorable little assassin sister?

Xu Shi tapped his forehead, wondering if he should really tone it down a bit lately. His memory seemed to be getting worse.

But Xia Wuyou is so cute! Last night she actually wore cat ears and a cat tail, and her cat-like meows were way more convincing than Gu Yi's...

Is this what they mean by "you can't have your cake and eat it too"?

Fortunately, he had already made all the arrangements, so the impact wasn't that great.

"Does Miss Lin Yue mean that I should return my sister to you right now?"

He held onto the table with one hand and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Of course, stop talking nonsense!"

Lin Yue had no patience for pleasantries and her tone was full of dissatisfaction. "I don't want to delay any longer, let's do it today."

"Oh, okay."

Xu Shi expressed his understanding, "However, I'm busy today, so you'll have to come to 'Snake Ring' to pick them up yourself. Is that alright?"

"Ok, deal."

"Then I'll be waiting for you. You can come alone without worry."

Xu Shi smiled and said, "However... I don't care about releasing her, but whether Miss Lin Xing is willing to go back with you is another matter."

"What? Explain yourself!"

Lin Yue was stunned, but before she could react, the other end of the line had already cut off the communication.

What does he mean?

What do you mean my sister doesn't want to go back with me? How could she not want to... Or is it something else?!

Could it be that Xu Shi, that devil, broke his promise and did something to his sister...?

Lin Yue wasn't an innocent little girl, and considering Xu Shi's character, it was hard for her not to think in all sorts of strange directions.

Damn!

Even the slightest image of it flashed through her mind, and she couldn't suppress her anger. Unconsciously, she slammed her hammer down hard, smashing the table into pieces.

"What happened, Chief Moon?"

Hearing the commotion, the men outside the door hurriedly knocked and asked what was going on.

"...It's nothing, just a slip of the hand."

Lin Yue calmed down a little and let out a long sigh of relief.

Calm down, calm down. Anger won't solve anything.

Maybe he's just using those words to confuse me? It's not the first time he's done this... making me lose my temper and fall into his trap...

The more this is the case, the less you need to panic.

and.

No matter what, she was determined to bring her sister back; there was no point in making wild guesses before seeing her with her own eyes.

Ugh.

After drinking some water to calm herself down, Lin Yue put on her trench coat, shook her head, and prepared to set off.

"I'm going out for a bit. Just proceed with the Sin City matter as planned."

Before leaving, she didn't forget to find a few trusted confidants to give her some advice.

"Chief Moon, what is this... Oh."

These are all veterans of the new "Spark" team, having worked their way up alongside Lin Yue.

The information about Lin Xing hadn't been leaked, but the core members still knew about it. Combined with the leader's actions just now, they had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on.

"Do you need us to send some people with you? That way, you can have someone to look after you."

"...No need, you just need to take care of yourselves."

Lin Yue thought for a moment and shook her head. "I can handle it by myself."

The truth is, it doesn't make much difference whether you bring people or not. Anyway, she doesn't think bringing a few people will change anything... Even if the entire "Spark" team is mobilized, what can they do? Can they really compete with "Snake Ring"? Even "Dragon City" can't do that.

"Then... you must be careful and pay attention to safety."

Seeing that she said that, the others didn't dare to try to persuade her anymore.

"Yes, I know, don't worry."

Lin Yue forced a smile.

Actually, this should have been a happy thing, since "Spark" had gained a lot of benefits from this chaos. Although the city hall had sent people to negotiate the relevant matters, before that, all kinds of property left behind by "Dragon City" had already been divided up by everyone.

Given its current status, "Spark" is undoubtedly the most popular gang in Sin City, with "White Iron" and "Long Knife Gang" taking a backseat, not to mention the rest.

It's a pity that all of this was obtained by betraying Shen He... In the end, Lin Yue is not as good as Xia Wuyou, who can completely ignore the person she once followed. It must be hard for her to accept this.

Adding to what Xu Shi said earlier... everything good turned into bad.

Lin Yue moved quickly and soon arrived at the headquarters building of "Snake Ring".

This was her second time here, and actually her second time setting foot in Night City. However, the last time she was preoccupied with other things, so the memory wasn't very pleasant.

Lin Yue gritted her teeth and strode inside.

"Long time no see, Miss Lin Yue."

Su Lin was waiting for her at the front desk early in the morning. When she saw her arrive, she greeted her politely.

"...Take me to see him."

Lin Yue pursed her lips. She had mixed feelings about Xu Shi, and it was similar when she faced Director Su. After all, Xu Shi was always there for her whenever she was humiliated. Especially the first time she was tortured by that devil, she could never forget the expectant look in Su Lin's eyes.

Bah! Hypocritical, they're all cut from the same cloth.

"Not in a hurry."

Su Lin shook her head and said expressionlessly, "Please come with me for a security check first."

"What?...Okay."

Lin Yue was already impatient with this, and hearing this request almost made her curse out loud, but she had no choice but to sigh and agree.

The security check was quite thorough. Not only were her guns and daggers confiscated, but Su Lin also personally searched her body again, citing safety as the reason.

"Was it really necessary to go this far?!"

Although she was a woman, Lin Yue still felt ashamed of being treated this way, and finally couldn't help but cry out.

"This is a necessary procedure, and we hope Ms. Lin understands."

Su Lin rolled her eyes. "If it weren't for the young master instructing me to touch you, I wouldn't be here." "If you can't accept it, then go back now."

"Wouldn't that be exactly what you wanted?"

Lin Yue didn't want things to get complicated, so she gritted her teeth and endured it. If she felt uncomfortable, so be it.

After going through a long and complicated process, Su Lin finally took her to find Xu Shi.

"The young master is inside. You can talk to him yourself."

After seeing her to the door, Su Lin left a message and then departed.

The door wasn't closed, just slightly ajar, but Lin Yue reached out her hand without daring to push it open.

This doesn't seem to be his office? Although she was still somewhat dazed before, she remembered a few things: this place clearly looked more like a prison. What was he planning to do by arranging to meet her in a place like this?

After hesitating for a long time, she cautiously pushed open the door and looked inside warily.

Xu Shi was indeed sitting inside, but the lighting seemed dim and indistinct, and one could only vaguely see his smiling face.

"...I'm here, where's my sister?"

Without further hesitation, Lin Yue pushed open the door and went inside.

"Oh, you mean Miss Lin Xing?"

Under the lights, Xu Shi's smile became even more eerie.

"She's here."

As soon as he finished speaking, he snapped his fingers lightly, and the lights in the room instantly turned on, so bright that Lin Yue couldn't open her eyes.

At the same time, the door behind her was slammed shut with a bang.

Then, Lin Yue witnessed a scene that infuriated her.

She couldn't see him because of the lighting, but Lin Xing was actually right next to Xu Shi.

However, instead of standing, she knelt in front of him and wrapped her legs around his in an extremely ambiguous position.
