Speaking of which... there's still no contact from the "One-Wing" organization. Could something have gone wrong?

"Wouldn't it be too dangerous to involve the 'Mammon's'?" Lu Xining cautioned. "I've heard they often kill their employers to embezzle goods."

"No, 'Mammon' is a very trustworthy organization."

Fan Xiao explained, "Whether it's murder or delivery, as long as it's business, it will be done perfectly."

"As for killing the employer and embezzling the goods... the goods have already been delivered, and the business is considered complete once the goods have been handed over. All subsequent actions are free to do as one pleases, yes, free."

“Killing your employer is called murder and robbery, which is different from the concept of embezzling goods.”

Lu Xining: "..."

At this moment, she began to understand why Fan Xiao was able to join the "Mammon" organization.

"Don't worry, I have connections in 'Mammon,' nothing will go wrong."

Fan Xiao comforted him.

The "Lost Kingdom" has now been upgraded to a B-grade item, the "Land of the Vanished Gods," which has the ability to make people permanently forget certain things.

With this layer of insurance, he was no longer afraid of information leaks after hiring "Mammon".

Anyway, I can't remember it.

Yes, he planned to discard the useful tool after it had served its purpose from the very beginning.

There's no need to talk about chivalry and morality with evil spirits and heretics!

Chapter 376 The Older Sister Begins to Manipulate the Younger Sister

After finalizing the assassination plan, Lu Xining inquired about detailed information regarding the Living Tribunal and Mammon.

At this moment, her expression remained cold and indifferent, but in reality, she was overjoyed, happy that Fan Xiao was willing to share her secret with her and her sisters.

And it's not exactly a secret.

This proves that Van Shaw has completely come to regard them as his own people.

“During this period, your situation… no, it should be said that your family’s situation has been somewhat dangerous. Although the Special Affairs Bureau has sent people to protect them, you and I both know that this amount of power is no match for powerful players.”

Lu Xining said, "The Special Affairs Bureau should send some more capable people over here, but even the best defenses can have their weaknesses. I will stay here and help you instead of going to the dungeon for the time being."

"Don't worry, I'll tell them not to go out for the next few days."

Fan Xiao said, "I have left enough protective measures at home. As long as I don't go out, there is basically no chance of anything happening."

"What kind of power?" Lu Baizhi asked curiously, "A prop?"

"It's a secret," Fan Xiao said mysteriously, "I'll tell you later. It's not appropriate for others to know for now."

The so-called protective force naturally refers to the D-level dungeon, Fairy Tale Town.

He moved Fairy Tale Town from the outskirts of Ancheng to the interior of Ancheng, and positioned the physical exit facing his living room.

In this way, when the dungeon is not open, Yan Keke and the other 36 lolis, along with a large number of illusionary creatures in Fairy Tale Town, can go out and act as temporary guards.

Although they can't stray too far from the instance, they can still effectively radiate within a radius of 100 meters.

This guard force is far stronger than the personnel sent by the Special Affairs Bureau. Unless they encounter a B-level mental player who can see through illusions, no matter how many enemies go, they will just be easy prey.

Furthermore, the true exit of the dungeon can be blocked by illusions, so that D-rank players who come to run and complete the dungeon can only leave by teleporting to the station. In this way, no player will go to his living room and disturb his family.

"Of course, being confined to home all the time isn't a good solution either."

Fan Xiao added, "I don't know how long the assassination plan will take to complete. We can only take it one step at a time."

"If it goes on for too long, I will move my family to Roman City in Division 001 for temporary refuge."

"After Tina left, I entrusted the management of the Rice Manor to a friend. Given her status, the security there is quite good, so going there to seek refuge is a good option."

He handed over the management of the Rice Manor to Nori—the royal princess of Division 001 whom he had met in the dungeon, a big fan of Tina, and a seasoned chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) sufferer.

As for how to transfer people there...

Either he sends his family into the instance first, then goes to Roman City to open the instance's random entrance, and releases them.

Alternatively, you can buy a few train tickets that ordinary people can use and travel across regions by train.

In this regard, we can seek help from the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Righteous Sect. With her status, obtaining a few ordinary train tickets should be a piece of cake.

Of course, Fan Xiao wouldn't want to move his family to another district unless absolutely necessary.

Not everyone is willing to leave their hometown.

"It seems you've made thorough preparations." Lu Xining nodded. "Since the house is safe, you can stay here with me for the next few days. Otherwise, if you ask Bai Zhi to help you, you'll have to take her back with you, which isn't very convenient."

"Sister, I...I'm fine, there's nothing inconvenient about it at all."

Lu Baizhi quickly spoke up.

Lu Xining turned her head to look at her, a cold smile appearing on her lips: "You think I'm saying it's inconvenient for you? I'm saying that if you come along, it will cause inconvenience to others."

"why?"

Lu Baizhi asked.

Bringing your girlfriend home to meet your parents is a perfectly normal thing, isn't it...? She kept those words to herself.

After all, Fan Xiao and she hadn't officially confirmed their relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend. Others could say such things and she would be happy to hear them, but for her to say them herself... was just too shameless!

"Song Qingshan went home two days ago and spoke ill of you to his family. He said you were fat, weak-willed, indecisive, and a bit of a flirt. He called you a pretty face and said you weren't suitable to be his older brother's partner. He openly looked down on you."

Lu Xining held up several knives and began stabbing them into his sister: "Song Yu... that is, Song Qingshan's sister, she echoed her brother's bad words about you, saying that you only look like a good girl on the surface, and that you are probably very promiscuous behind the scenes. She also said that good things should not go to outsiders, and that you, an outsider, have no right to lay a finger on her brother. She even threatened that if you dare to step into her house, she would beat your pig head to a pulp with a mop handle and kick you out."

"Oh, right, this Song Yu is an extreme brother-obsessed person. She's extremely fond of Fan Xiao, and she has a very outgoing and daring personality. It's possible that she'll actually do what she says."

She paused, a slight smile playing on her lips, and said, "So, Gardenia, are you sure you still want to go? Are you sure... you won't feel awkward?"

"..."

Lu Baizhi was stunned for a while before she came to her senses and asked suspiciously, "Did you make this up, sister?"

"Believe it or not, it's up to you," Lu Xining said indifferently. "Anyway, it's not me who's embarrassed."

"Cough... What Xi Ning said is probably true. Those two guys are indeed the kind of people who would say such things."

Fan Xiao glanced at Lu Xining: "You... your observation is quite insightful."

"To do the guard job you assigned, you naturally have to keep an eye on people. If you keep an eye on them long enough, you'll know everything."

Facing Fan Xiao's gaze, Lu Xining felt absolutely no guilt.

Observe your husband's family, understand the personalities and preferences of his family members, and then take appropriate measures to win them over and build goodwill... This is perfectly reasonable, so what is there to be ashamed of?

Incidentally, after learning that Song Qingshan and Song Yu were both extremely brother-obsessed, she felt no sense of vigilance whatsoever.

Song Qingshan's feelings were likely purely admiration.

As for Song Yu, he's just a delusional kid who doesn't deserve her attention.

Even if Fan Xiaozhen were to harm this sworn sister, she wouldn't care.

It would be best to have it all to yourself, but if you can't, just getting what you want is fine.

"Fan Xiao, your younger sister seems to be a middle school student, right?"

Lu Baizhi suddenly asked a question and scolded, "She...she's in a relationship too early! She needs to be properly educated."

"Ignore her, she's just a little kid," Fan Xiao said in a condescending tone. "When she has less homework, she gets all energetic and starts doing all sorts of silly things. She needs to be disciplined. But..."

He sighed softly, "Xi Ning is right. My two little devils are both restless. If you two get together, there won't be any peace. In that case..."

He met Lu Xining's gaze and nodded, saying, "I'll stay here with you for the time being. It's not convenient for them to know about the assassination plans."

"Ah."

Lu Xining licked her cherry-colored lips.

What do you mean by licking your lips...? Fan Xiao resisted the urge to ask.

On the other side, Lu Baizhi felt a little regretful, but also a little happy.

The regret was that I couldn't show up at Fan Xiao's house to assert my ownership, but the good news was that I could live with Fan Xiao for the next ten days or so.

"I have to go back first tonight to arrange some things," Fan Xiao said. "I'll come back the day after tomorrow, and I'll call you then."

"Remember to call half an hour in advance," Lu Xining instructed, "so I can take a shower."

"Sister, when did you become so particular?" Lu Baizhi asked suspiciously.

“A clean environment makes people more hungry,” Lu Xining replied.

"Can taking a bath increase appetite?"

Lu Baizhi was skeptical.

Although they weren't on the same wavelength, the two chatted quite smoothly.

"The water's getting cold, aren't you going to drink it?"

At this moment, Lu Xining suddenly pointed to the water glass on the coffee table and reminded Fan Xiao.

Fan Xiao glanced at it and politely declined, saying, "I'm not thirsty right now, thank you."

"I've said what I needed to say. For the next period of time, continue as usual and do not do anything unusual."

"Okay, I'm going back first."

"I'll give it to you."

Lu Xining got up and grabbed the car keys.

Seeing that Lu Baizhi also wanted to go, she turned around and reminded her sister, "You just came back from the dungeon, haven't you showered for days? You smell bad."

"Huh?" Lu Baizhi exclaimed in surprise, "Really? Where?"

She subconsciously raised her arm to smell it, then grabbed her collar and sniffed again; there was no smell.

During the seven days she spent in the dungeon, she used her talent to restore her own condition every day, so it's normal that she didn't smell anything.

But seeing how seriously her sister was talking... Lu Baizhi hesitated.

If it really is true... She started to feel nervous, and her cheeks flushed slightly with embarrassment.

She said, "I...I'm going to take a shower!"

After saying that, Lu Baizhi dashed into the bathroom.

Regardless of whether it's there or not, wash it clean first.

I absolutely cannot let Fan Xiao see... or rather, smell my unladylike side!

"let's go."

After successfully getting her sister away, Lu Xining led the way to the front door.

Fan Xiao followed, and the two took the elevator to the underground parking lot, where they arrived at the white Range Rover.

Lu Xining didn't walk to the driver's seat, but tossed the keys to Fan Xiao and said, "You drive, Xiao."

"..."

After taking the keys, Fan Xiao fell into a brief silence.

He smelled the scent of color... He shouldn't be overthinking it, right?

"What's wrong, Xiao?" Lu Xining tilted her head.

“I’m fine with driving,” Van Shaw said, “but don’t cause any trouble.”

"What's going on?" Lu Xining: "I don't understand."

"……never mind."

Fan Xiao walked towards the driver's seat.

The vehicle started quickly and drove away from the parking lot.

Not long after they got out, Lu Xining, who was in the passenger seat, suddenly rubbed her temples and frowned, saying, "I'm carsick, my head is so dizzy."

"..."

"Xiao, I need to lie down for a while. You focus on driving."

After Lu Xining finished speaking, she leaned to her side and rested her head on Fan Xiao's lap.
