Abnormal Moon

"Great!"

Sylvia immediately beamed with joy.

"Could you please help me locate that guy named Xiao? I want to dig him out and then take care of him myself!"

Although Roy had just helped her vent her anger, Sylvia's rage against Xiao still burned like a raging fire in her heart, not only because of his previous act of using reporters to involve innocent people, but also because he hurt her fans at that concert!

Sylvia loves her fans, or rather, she loves anyone who listens to her sing. For her, the most intolerable act is threatening her with the people she cares about.

"You can't find it yourself? Aren't you supposed to be all-powerful?"

"That's why I'm asking you for help! I can't find it anywhere!"

A shadow fell over Sylvia's expression.

Her abilities as a witch are indeed very strong. She can manipulate all-powerful elements by singing songs containing impressions to cause any phenomenon except healing. Whether it is physical enhancement, controlling fire, detecting targets, or concealing her tracks, she can do it all with ease through songs, making her a true omnipotent witch.

But her omnipotence failed when she faced Akatsuki.

After the terrorist attack at the concert, she quickly used her detection-type songs to try to locate Akatsuki and pull her out of the darkness.

But nothing happened.

Just like that guy named Xiao wasn't even from this world, her song didn't cause a single thing.

This was highly inappropriate, because theoretically, even if her detection ability couldn't find the exact location, as long as she had some impression, she should at least be able to delineate a general area. However, when it came to matters concerning Akatsuki, her ability couldn't even delineate half an area, which infuriated her at the time.

That's why she's been idle until now, waiting for the results of the conglomerate's investigation.

"So this kind of thing has happened before."

Fan Xinglu narrowed her eyes. The songstress's ability was ineffective against Xiao. This Xiao seemed to be no ordinary person either. Could he also be someone from another world... What's going on with this world?

"Stardew, can you help me?"

Sylvia clasped her hands together, trying her best to make the cutest expression.

"I refuse."

Fan Xinglu remained completely unmoved, giving Sylvia a cold look.

"My principle is that I will never interfere in any event that may affect the course of the world, whether it is a good thing or a bad thing. Even if that guy named Xiao causes the deaths of millions or tens of millions of people, I won't even flinch."

Chapter 269 Sylvia's Invitation

Sylvia was stunned.

She guessed that Fan Xinglu might refuse, but the indifference revealed in her words truly shocked her.

"You're going too far... Even if your disciple might die, you won't intervene?"

“Little princess, I have lived for over a thousand years.”

Fan Xinglu suddenly sighed, revealing a complex expression that Sylvia couldn't decipher at all.

"In this long period of time, I have witnessed too many separations and deaths. Don't judge me by your standards. In short, I will not get involved in this matter. Figure it out yourself!"

As if she didn't want to be bothered by her, Fan Xinglu turned and disappeared as soon as she finished speaking.

Moreover, if that Xiao is really an outsider like Roy and Stella, then she might not be able to find his hiding place either.

Sylvia wanted to say something more, but Fan Xinglu turned and left without giving her a chance, leaving her only to sigh in vain.

Humans have lived for too long, and their thoughts easily wander onto paths that are hard for ordinary people to predict. This was the first time Sylvia truly understood this point.

She didn't live for over a thousand years like Fan Xinglu, nor did she have such a long history, so it's not appropriate to criticize her thoughts or say whether she's right or wrong.

However, the only way to find Xiao was now gone, leaving Sylvia feeling extremely frustrated.

She left the redevelopment zone and returned to Quinvue Children's Academy before curfew.

"Come to my room tonight?"

She opened her phone and sent a message to her best friend.

She's feeling really down today and wants to talk to someone.

"it is good."

Shortly after, the commander replied.

Sylvia felt a little better, took off her clothes, and walked into the bathroom wearing only her underwear.

When she came out of the bathroom drying her hair, Okita Souji had already arrived in her room.

The two girls got into bed in their pajamas. Sylvia grabbed Souji and started rambling on about what had happened that day, including the attack by Wumiao and Fan Xinglu's rejected request. Of course, she didn't mention that she had gone to track Roy down; she only said that she had run into Roy in the redevelopment zone.

Sylvia felt incredibly fortunate to have such a good friend as Ms. Okita. Ms. Okita was usually a woman of few words, and when she listened to others, she was very quiet and a very good listener. Moreover, she never gossiped about things. Sylvia would tell Ms. Okita many things that she couldn't tell outsiders, such as her complaints about Pedra and the dark side of the conglomerate. After saying these things, she felt much less pressure. Having such a friend was truly a rare blessing.

"Speaking of which, Souji, are you and Roy from the same sect?"

"almost."

"Besides that? For example, how good or bad the relationship is... or, do you like him, in a romantic sense?"

Sylvia carefully observed Ms. Okita's expression.

"Absolutely impossible."

Ms. Okita gave her answer with the fastest speed in her life.

"Even if the world were to end, it wouldn't be possible!"

"That's it..."

Sylvia breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed that everything was indeed a misunderstanding on her part.

Perhaps Souji said that out of pride in her own school of swordsmanship, praising Roy's swordsmanship as being similar to hers? That makes sense, but it's a bit strange that Souji is so certain...

Before long, Souji drifted off to sleep, lying there quietly like a sleeping beauty.

Sylvia gazed at Souji's sleeping face, secretly thinking to herself that Souji was extremely quiet when he slept, almost too quiet. He would even maintain the same position from the moment he fell asleep at night until he woke up in the morning, without moving an inch, just like a dead person.

At first, she was startled, but after sharing a bed for so long, she had long since gotten used to it.

"However, Souji and Roy aren't in that kind of relationship..."

Sylvia lay on the bed, a pillow under her chest. She picked up her phone from the bedside and tapped her smooth chin lightly, a hint of hesitation and anticipation flashing in her eyes.

Roy is an incredible guy.

If it weren't for him tonight, she might have really died at Xiao's hands. The fear of death and the sense of security she felt when Roy saved her still lingered in her heart.

Moreover, what excited her the most was that Roy later launched an attack on Akatsuki, risking offending Akatsuki.

All I wanted was to get revenge for her.

She's surprisingly thoughtful and considerate.

She opened her phone, thought for a moment, and sent a text message to the head of Yaoguangxing, the intelligence agency to which Kui Enwei belonged.

"Do you have Roy's contact information, the champion of the Star Martial Arts Festival?"

A short while later, they replied.

"Someone is selling them on the dark web; you can buy them if you need them."

"Someone's selling it? Who is it?"

"A peculiar member among the Star Director's film stars, he even takes on commissions from other schools. Money talks, he has no morals. His name is Night Blower, and that's who he is selling Roy's contact information."

"Buy it."

"alright, please wait."

Sylvia turned off her phone screen and nodded silently.

It seems she needs to warn Roy to be careful of someone named Nightblower.

He's the mole.

Soon after, Roy's contact information was sent to her phone.

Sylvia saved the number.

"Since he and Souji don't have that kind of relationship, it's okay for me to get a little closer to him, right?"

Sylvia thought to herself.

She patted her cheeks, took a deep breath, and began editing the message.

"Hmm, is this too proactive? It makes me seem like I lack self-control. Should I change it... Hmm, is this too subtle? Will he not understand what I mean...? This is so annoying. I never imagined that a simple invitation could be so profound."

After editing for a full half hour, Sylvia finally made up her mind and sent the message.

"Delete the video, and I can grant you one reasonable request, but the most we can do is go shopping together!"

This message is neither too proactive nor too subtle; the implication is quite obvious, isn't it?

She's a world-renowned singer, after all. I'm not bragging, but any normal person would try every means to seize the opportunity to get closer to her! And they could also delete that video while they're at it.

Shortly after, the phone's indicator light came on.

Sylvia's eyes lit up, and she quickly opened the spatial window and accessed the information.
