We moved to Golden Courtyard

Page 89

However, at this point, you could no longer see anything on her face that could be associated with words like 'cute' or 'lively'.

All that remained was a chilling expression on his face.

Have you thought it through?

Sitting in the director's chair, the middle-aged man was not surprised at all by Theresa's arrival. He said calmly, "One team of special police officers, one day. That's the limit I can approve."

"Okay. I need to apply for something else."

"explain."

"GSX-0328 Judas, exoskeleton armor, stargazing."

The man hesitated for a moment, looking at the girl's stubborn expression, and finally sighed.

"it is good……"

Having gotten what she wanted, Theresa turned and walked away.

For Theresa now... time is everything.

······

Night fell quietly. Xu Qi sat quietly for an entire afternoon, then suddenly let out a long sigh. Amidst the puzzled looks on everyone's faces, he forced a smile and said...

"I'm sorry to have worried everyone."

On his left, Mei, who had been holding Xu Qi's arm and keeping him company all afternoon, shook her head.

"I'm glad you've recovered."

Everyone smiled knowingly, and Qianjie, seeing that Xu Qi was alright, turned around to prepare dinner.

The people at Golden Courtyard are always like this, tolerant and caring towards Xu Qi.

Xu Qi glanced at his phone. He had actually sent a message to Theresa via QQ earlier, but he still hadn't received a reply...

"The person who is most upset right now must be Theresa."

Indeed, after all, they were one of Theresa's few friends.

"The one in the most danger right now is probably Theresa."

"Ugh?"

Everyone was taken aback and looked in the direction of the sudden sound, only to see Kevin and Sue carrying laptops as they walked downstairs.

At this moment, some vague memories were vividly imprinted in Xu Qi's mind.

Kevin…it seems they’ve been investigating something all along… (Chapter 118)

His next words undoubtedly made Xu Qi's face even more gloomy.

"Su Muqin's death was not accidental; she did not die by suicide—but was murdered."

……

“I investigated the suicide records in Guangcheng over the past few months and found some very strange data. There were quite a few young women who had previously suffered from depression, but their condition suddenly relapsed and they all chose to commit suicide.”

Xu Qi frowned.

"Then, I hacked into the public security system in Guangcheng."

Is it possible to hack into this?

“The police in Guangcheng had noticed this long ago and focused their attention on a cult organization that was spreading online—Anlejiao.”

Xu Qi recalled Aponia's words—perhaps Theresa's departure was for your own good. (Chapter 117)

"For the past few months, the police in Guangcheng City have been investigating everything related to Anlejiao, but do you remember what I told you at the beginning?"

The other party possesses software provided by Hacker Rabbit, making them extremely difficult to trace. (Chapter 82)

"Progress was quite slow until last month when there was some breakthrough. The level of secrecy is too high for me to hack in. All I know is that it is related to Shanghai."

Himeko, who had been staying in Shanghai, suddenly appeared in Guangcheng on a business trip. (Chapter 94)

Upon arriving in Guangcheng, countless fragmented images from the past, at this moment, were pieced together into a complete picture in Xu Qi's mind with Kevin's words.

“Xu Qi, although I don’t know Theresa’s identity or status, one thing is certain: she is a frontline combat officer of the Public Security Bureau, and she is of a very high rank. And at this time, Su Muqin died…”

Xu Qi's face turned ashen.

Theresa is in danger!

123. The snake likes you very much, but if you don't, it will kill you!

Whenever Xu Qi needs strength, who is the first person he thinks of?

There is no need to hesitate or doubt.

The group knocked on the doors of Mebius and Vervière, and when Vervière opened the door, she seemed to have anticipated Xu Qi's arrival.

Only then did everyone realize that in just about ten days, the room contained nothing but a pile of medical instruments, apart from various mechanical creations.

Sakura looked at the strange objects stored in the vessel and felt a slight chill run down her spine.

After all, that's where her ears seem to have come from.

The same applies to everyone else. So, barring any unforeseen circumstances, no one would be willing to explore Möbius's room—except for Xu Qi.

"Finally remembered me, little guinea pig~~"

Seated in the main seat, a glint of madness flashed in Möbius's eyes when he saw Xu Qi.

"professor……"

"Okay, okay~~ I knew it, you would always think of me when something like this happens."

Mebius stood up, while Velvet pressed a button somewhere, and the previously normal wall suddenly opened slowly, revealing one of the elevators.

When...when was this made?

"Xu Qi and Mei are coming with me. The rest of you can do whatever you want."

Alicia sighed helplessly.

"Mebius, what are you up to behind my back now?"

"Ellie, I think you should learn to roll away."

The elevator doors closed, and even Wilvie was turned away. It seemed that Professor Möbius was about to do something big.

Upon seeing this, Kevin said...

"Let's go. Mebius won't do anything reckless. I have a bad feeling that tonight... won't be peaceful."

Kevin's words caused everyone in the Golden Courtyard to frown.

After all... this was Kevin's premonition.

······

As the elevator descended, Xu Qi wasn't surprised at all when he saw the spectacular view of the villa's base, which resembled a large factory...

He should have known long ago that with the professor and Vilvie around, those two would never be idle.

At this moment, many Kleins were putting the finishing touches on an exoskeleton armor, and Xu Qi could see clearly that it was his V2V.

No, or rather, it was a modified V2V. The two giant components at the back, resembling heat sinks, puzzled Xu Qi.

"Those are the wings of V2V, or rather, the floating cannons."

"What!?"

"I never want to relive the memory of your defeat at the hands of Char's funnels. What others have, you must have too—the dual-wing V2V system, and his funnel system is called..."

Mebius turned his head and glanced at Xu Qi.

"White Knight - Moonlight".

Xu Qi murmured, "Moonlight..."

For some reason, Xu Qi really loves this name.

At the same time, she was also deeply moved—even though the professor would use some strange experiments on herself every time, she always thought of giving Xu Qi the best.

"Mei, I've also prepared a gift for you. This time, you'll be responsible for protecting Xu Qi."

"Ugh?"

Mei was taken aback at first, as she was wondering why the professor had asked her to come down with him, but Mebius's words filled her with joy!

She... no longer wanted to see Xu Qi fight alone.

He led Mei to the other side, where it wasn't an exoskeleton like V2V that was two and a half people tall, but rather... a set of red and black samurai clothing.

In just a moment, Mei's gaze was firmly captured by it.

"This is……"

"The Herrscher of Thunder's battle armor."

"Ugh?"

"The purple ghost ring on the back of this outfit contains a miniature solar furnace, and at the same time..." Mebius pointed to the red ghost hand armor connected by nanowires on both sides.

"Each of these two giant ghost hands also contains a miniature solar furnace. It can release HK particles in the form of lightning."

So, can HK particles explain everything?

Mebius pointed, his face full of pride.

"Originally, I was planning to give this suit of armor to Sakura if you couldn't become a New Type, but now I realize that you are the most suitable one."

Go to the changing room and try it on. It'll also be a good opportunity to see how compatible you and she are, and whether you can adapt to... this battle armor.

"it is good!"

Without any hesitation, under Klein's guidance, Mei stepped onto the platform and heard a huge mechanical roar as the platform slowly descended.

Mebius's lips curled up—the most troublesome problem was solved.

Xu Qi looked on with envy...

"Professor, do you think I could have a suit of armor like this? It's not that exoskeletons are bad, but they just don't offer the same flexibility as this kind of armor..."

"Ha!" Mebius laughed dismissively. "What do you know? Code power is king. In front of V2V, which has 30G of power and floating cannons, everything else can only be crushed into dust."

That's true.

"Alright, now it's just the two of us here."

"Uh-huh?"

"You... are going to do something crazy and dangerous again, aren't you?"

Upon hearing the professor say this, Xu Qi couldn't help but fall silent for a moment.

He never lied to the professor, so he could only say, "Theresa is my friend, and I won't stand by and watch her walk into danger without doing anything about it."

"It doesn't matter."

"Ugh?"

Before anyone knew it, Mebius had gotten close to Xu Qi.

She suddenly reached out, grabbed Xu Qi by the collar, and pulled him close.

"I only know one thing... that if you die, my lab rat will be gone too."

"Ugh?"

Just as Xu Qi was about to say something, he suddenly felt a force on his collar again!

Wait!……

Without any surprise, Mebius's thin lips kissed Xu Qi's lips.

It was a very strange feeling, because even in her wildest dreams, Xu Qi would never have imagined having such a relationship with a professor...

Moreover, the professor kissed very passionately and intensely.

A slender tongue pried open Xu Qi's lips, and the instant it entered, it nimbly moved upwards—a snake…
