Fan Xiao: "..."

He didn't ask any further questions, and his mind wandered to something else.

Why did they still encounter Mammon's people and fight even with Lu Baizhi by their side?

Although no one was injured, this should be considered bad luck, right?

Either this event was inevitable, and even with Lu Baizhi's luck, there was no way to avoid it in advance.

Or... this is actually a good thing, not a bad thing.

"If it's the latter... even Lady Luck is supporting me to become a bandit?"

Fan Xiao seemed to be deep in thought.

Yes, this was not a bad thing for him, but a good thing.

There might be fantastical substances on this train—after making this guess, he admitted he was intrigued.

However, being interested doesn't mean you can take action immediately.

Let him go and rob it directly... Although he's confident he can succeed, there's no way to solve the subsequent troubles.

Unless everyone on the bus is killed and the news is completely blocked.

This is absolutely outrageous!

A person as noble as him wouldn't do such a thing.

Fortunately, Mammon's men can help him out and take the blame for him.

Once the bandits have obtained the fantasy substance, he only needs to quietly snatch it from them and consume it himself, thus achieving the perfect result of gaining benefits without getting into any trouble.

This is also why he didn't summon the little angel immediately to start the final battle with the punk girl.

"No, double-crossing doesn't count as robbery."

Fan Xiao endowed his actions with a sense of justice by applying flexible moral standards.

From this perspective, this incident can be seen as Lu Baizhi's good fortune, influencing him and bringing him a wonderful thing.

Was the little girl constantly praying for him in her heart?

Chapter 230 Encrypted Calls on the Train

Fan Xiao looked at Lu Baizhi again and found that the girl was still staring at him, still looking like she wanted to say something but couldn't.

This piqued his curiosity.

After carefully observing the girl's expression, he noticed that she was glancing at his side from time to time out of the corner of her eye.

"So that's the reason..."

Fan Xiao thought for a moment and quickly figured out the answer to the question.

Lu Baizhi's talent starts at level C.

After two upgrades, this talent should have reached level B.

During the previous battle, she seemed to have created a field that combined healing and damage reflection, which injured the punk girl.

This must be the new characteristic developed by the healing talent after being upgraded to Rank B.

At the same time, the healing effect of her talent has become even more powerful.

Even the debuffs caused by mental interference can be directly eliminated.

As expected of a B-grade talent, its effects are increasingly leaning towards an all-around nature.

Since Lu Baizhi was able to eliminate the punk girl's influence on her, then the influence of Yan Keke's illusion on her must have been temporarily eliminated when she was healing herself in the battle.

So, she saw Yan Keke.

This has raised questions.

He seemed hesitant to speak.

As for why the others didn't see it... Fan Xiao guessed that Lu Baizhi's talent was probably much more effective when healing herself than when healing others.

When Yan Keke used the prop to attack the punk girl, she didn't forget to create an illusion to cover her figure.

It's normal that the others didn't see her.

"Brother Fan, that sister... she seems to be looking at me."

At this moment, Yan Keke herself also noticed something was wrong.

She must have made eye contact with Lu Baizhi, because she quickly reminded Fan Xiao.

Fan Xiao nodded and created a new illusion, enveloping himself and Lu Baizhi within it.

"Bai Zhi, did you see it?"

"Huh? No, no."

Lu Baizhi blushed slightly and pretended to be clueless.

It seems she...discovered a secret she shouldn't have?

I wonder if being cute will work?

"You still say you didn't have that reaction? Now that you know, there's nothing we can do..."

Fan Xiao made a throat-slitting gesture with his hand: "To silence him."

"puff……"

Lu Baizhi couldn't help but smile and said, "Fan Xiao, your acting is not convincing at all."

After venting her frustrations, she stopped dodging the question and looked directly at Yan Keke before asking Fan Xiao, "Um... who is this little girl...?"

She didn't directly ask whether it was a prop or a talent.

Because she felt it was a bit impolite.

"Coco, please introduce yourself."

Fan Xiao patted Yan Keke on the shoulder.

"Hello, sister," Yan Keke said politely. "My name is Yan Keke, and I am Brother Fan's sister."

"My name is Lu Baizhi."

After responding with her name, Lu Baizhi asked in confusion, "Sister?"

"Hmm... prop sister."

Yan Keke thought for a moment and then answered.

No wonder they were taught by Teacher Otter.

The little girl has already mastered the art of weaving lies.

"That's it."

Lu Baizhi revealed an expression that said, "I knew it."

It should be similar to Fan Xiao's rabbit prop, belonging to the life-summoning type of props.

Fan Xiao always manages to acquire some cute and practical props... She was a little envious.

Lu Baizhi composed herself and promised, "Don't worry, I will keep this a secret."

Since Fan Xiao has never introduced Yan Keke, he must not want people to know that she exists.

Yan Keke looked at Fan Xiao, then at Lu Baizhi, and suddenly remembered something. She quickly added, "By the way, sister, I am a group prop. Besides me, there are many other sisters who haven't appeared yet."

Since the other party can see her, they must also be able to see the other people in Fairy Tale Town.

If this older sister sees them when they're out having fun, it will be difficult for Brother Fan to explain.

Therefore, she thoughtfully helped Fan Xiao plug the loopholes in the details in advance.

"Summoning multiple individuals?" Lu Baizhi exclaimed in surprise, "That's amazing."

"It's amazing that my sister can see me."

Yan Keke and Yan Keke exchanged compliments.

"No, I was just using my talent to see you," Lu Baizhi explained. "Mental interference is also a kind of 'injury,' which can be treated."

"How you did it is not important; being able to do it is the key."

Yan Keke said.

"Alright, why are you two still chatting?" Fan Xiao reminded the two, "Let's leave this matter here for now and focus our attention on the current security issues."

"Okay!" Lu Baizhi waved to Yan Keke and said, "Keke, goodbye."

After saying that, she stopped using her talents and ceased constantly working to repair her mental state.

After all, keeping one's talent constantly active consumes a lot of mental energy.

The next second, the "invisibility illusion" created by A-level psionic energy interfered with her mind again, and Yan Keke disappeared from her sight.

"Wow, that's amazing..." Lu Baizhi thought to herself.

On the other hand, Fan Xiao did not dispel the illusion's interference with Lu Baizhi.

He was afraid that because the girl could see Yan Keke at any time, she might accidentally do something "out of place" in front of other people.

It wouldn't be good if the secret were exposed.

Speaking of which... could this be considered Lu Baizhi's luck at work?

Because of Mammon's arrival and the intense mental recovery during the battle, she happened to learn of Yan Keke's existence and some of his secrets.

Fan Xiao felt like he was about to develop "luck PTSD" because of Lu Baizhi.

Simply put, he can associate everything with luck.

After dispelling the illusion that had enveloped him and Lu Baizhi, Fan Xiao overheard Nori and the others discussing how to win if the punk girl returned and, besides jumping out of the car, chose to fight.

They then proceeded to formulate a seemingly elaborate battle plan.

Fan Xiao noticed that Lu Xining occasionally offered a brief, perfunctory reply, seemingly lacking enthusiasm.

Noticing Fan Xiao's gaze, Lu Xining met his eyes and immediately raised her hand to make a gesture as if answering a phone call.

Fan Xiao realized that she was requesting a "private call".

Interfering with vision and hearing—if Lu Xining had only suspected he possessed this ability before, now the little girl was completely certain.

If group intervention is possible, then creating a private environment for two people to chat alone is certainly possible as well.

Just like last time in the locker room.

"..."

Fan Xiao didn't know whether showing this ability in front of Lu Xining was digging his own grave.

What if the girl makes some strange requests of his? Should he agree or hold back for now?

This is truly a thought-provoking question...

Moreover, if he pretends not to understand the underlying meaning of Lu Xining's "telephone gesture" now... this girl will probably do something even bolder, right?

Thinking of this, Fan Xiao wisely fulfilled Lu Xining's request, creating a new illusion.

"Okay," he reminded the girl.

“Hmm,” Lu Xining nodded, “Xiao, do you need my help with the following matters?”

"You noticed?" Fan Xiao asked.

"That's it."

Lu Xining replied, "You held back your strength before, you didn't use that telekinetic talent you usually use, and you didn't go all out in the fight right away... Is it something that Mammon wants to take? What is it?"

She remembered what the head maid had said before.

Before Fan Xiao could answer, she continued, "Imaginary matter?"

“You’re as perceptive as ever,” Fan Xiao nodded. “It is indeed a fantasy substance.”

"It's too risky to double-cross someone."
