Chapter 111: Trust crisis resolved

“Oh, if it isn’t the famous Kong You.”

Qi Xiao emerged from the woods and looked at Kong You.

“Why did you set me up?”

Facing the suddenly appearing, cold-faced Qi Xiao, Kong You showed no surprise.

She smiled and said:

“It seems you’ve already been to You’erdan.”

“I asked why you set me up!”

“I almost died there; shouldn’t you give me an explanation?”

Qi Xiao stared at Kong You; he wasn’t flustered either.

Anyway, if things went south, he would immediately use Anchor Point Retrospection to escape.

“Oi, kid, you’re a bit arrogant, aren’t you!”

Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng raised his hand and pointed at Qi Xiao, “How dare you speak to my Big Sister like that!”

“I should have just snatched you this morning!”

What the hell?

Snatched him this morning?

What is this dead blondie saying?

Kong You pressed down Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng’s hand.

“To be precise, I was just gambling.”

She took a step forward, walking in front of Qi Xiao.

“Gambling that you were specially recruited by Xia Yuwan.”

Qi Xiao looked down, met Kong You’s gaze, and frowned, saying:

“So if I hadn’t been specially recruited, I would have just died on the spot?”

“Not necessarily, but the outcome wouldn’t have been very good.”

Qi Xiao took a deep breath, controlling the anger in his heart.

Kong You could tell Qi Xiao was very angry at this moment, and she softly said:

“Sorry.”

“You gambled with my life, and all you have is ‘sorry’?”

“How can I trust you like this? How can I cooperate with you?”

“Who knows, maybe one day you’ll sell me out, and I’ll still be counting your money.”

Kong You was silent for a moment.

She pulled a box out of her yuwo ring and opened it in front of Qi Xiao.

A pile of train coins was neatly stacked, gleaming golden.

“Here are three hundred train coins.”

“Two hundred of them are the final payment I promised you for joining the Order Heavenly Kingdom.”

“This is from the organization.”

“The extra hundred are from my own pocket, as compensation to you.”

Three hundred train coins; Qi Xiao unconsciously swallowed his saliva.

“Cough, cough.”

Qi Xiao grabbed the box and hugged it to his chest.

After managing his expression, Qi Xiao smiled brightly.

“You Jie, you understand me.”

“What I said just now was just out of anger; I know you won’t take it to heart.”

Kong You smiled.

“How about it, has the trust between us been repaired even a little?”

“What?! Was there a rift in our trust?”

“Oh my goodness, why didn’t I know?!”

“This is a huge crisis; it must not be allowed to happen!”

Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng tilted his head, looking at Qi Xiao with disdain.

This brat, how can he be even more shameless than me?

“As long as there isn’t, it’s fine.”

Qi Xiao put away the box and smiled awkwardly.

“Um, You Jie. Actually, I haven’t fully joined the Order Heavenly Kingdom yet.”

Qi Xiao informed Kong You about the upcoming special recruitment meeting and why he hadn't leveled up to twenty.

“Is the modification really a random refresh? Is there no way to definitely get a modification that follows the account?”

“No.”

Kong You’s answer was crisp and decisive.

This poured cold water on Qi Xiao.

If Kong You said so, then there really wasn’t a way.

The Dress-Up Master is indeed a very good module; it can greatly enhance one’s combat power and survivability.

If one could get powerful costume cards, it would be an invincible existence.

He really didn't want to miss out on this, he was only two follow-account modifications away.

Leveling up to three could still refresh nine modifications.

Does everything depend on fate?

But last time he leveled up to three, he didn’t get a single one.

Just as Qi Xiao was in a state of agitation, Kong You spoke again.

“However, there is a way to get other people’s follow-account modifications.”

Hearing this, Qi Xiao’s eyes lit up.

“Where is your Train? Let me log in; I need to contact someone.”

“No need, your Train is right here.”

Kong You: ?

“I put your Train away.”

Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng: “You kid, don’t brag.”

Qi Xiao rolled his eyes at Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng, ignored him, and continued:

“But your Train has a tracker. If I take it out now, I’m afraid they’ll rush back.”

“It’s fine, I’ll handle it.”

Seeing Kong You completely unfazed, Qi Xiao raised his hand and released the Train from his jie bracelet.

Seeing the suddenly appearing Train, both were stunned; he actually had an item that could put away a Train.

Seeing that the Train had indeed not been taken by others, Kong You breathed a sigh of relief.

She glanced at Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng:

“You’re the most experienced with where the Order Heavenly Kingdom likes to put trackers.”

Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng likewise squinted at Kong You:

“Alright, so I do all the dirty and tiring work, huh?”

After speaking, Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng nimbly hopped onto the roof of the Train and began to inspect it.

The Train door opened, and Qi Xiao followed Kong You inside.

Kong You summoned a light screen and clicked into private chat.

She scrolled down her friends list, found a man, and clicked on video call.

Three seconds later, the video call connected.

“Hello, Lu Xiaobu here, what can I do for you?”

In the video, two small hands were evenly spreading foamy body wash onto the man’s back.

Kong You watched with a blank expression and said coldly:

“Turn around.”

“That voice is,” Lu Xiaobu turned around, and his face, with a mask on it, immediately showed a surprised expression.

“You’you! I missed you so much!”

“I didn’t miss you.”

Kong You’s voice remained cold and unchanged.

“Give me a modification extraction card.”

“Why are you still like this, asking for things as soon as you get on? You don’t even ask if I’ve eaten or if I missed you.”

Seeing Kong You’s cold face and silence, the other party chuckled.

“Hehe, just kidding.”

“Wait a moment, let me find it.”

The video followed the other person’s movement, and the screen began to shake, only showing the other person’s chin and Adam’s apple.

“I remember putting it here, why isn’t it there?”

“Here, no.”

“Here, also no.”

“Here, still no!”

The man’s face was pressed against the screen, and half of his mask had fallen off.

“Oh, You’you, it seems like it’s gone.”

Seeing Kong You’s blank expression and her hand moving to hang up the call, the other party suddenly held a transparent card between his fingers, placed it in front of his forehead, and proudly said:

“Just kidding!”

“How could You’you’s request not be available?”

“Send it.”

The man held the card, twisting his body awkwardly.

“If You’you agrees to go skiing with me, I might be able to,”

“Send it.”

Kong You interrupted the other party’s words.

“Alrighty.”

“You’you, did you agree to go skiing with me?”

The other party pounced on the screen, his entire face filling the screen, full of anticipation.

“No.”

After Kong You received the modification extraction card, she immediately hung up the phone.

“Oh, this woman is still as cold as ever.”

Lu Xiaobu reapplied his mask and closed the light screen.

“Forget it, I owe her anyway.”

He hummed a song, wiggling his backside back to the bathroom.

The maid standing by carefully applied the foam to Lu Xiaobu’s hair.

He hummed a song while wiggling his body, enjoying the maid massaging his hair.

......

Kong You took out the modification extraction card and handed it to Qi Xiao.

“Modification Extraction Card.”

“It can extract modifications from other people’s follow accounts. Then activate them on your own account.”

Qi Xiao took the transparent card, which was about the size of a subway card.

“There’s such a thing?”

He had never heard of such a thing when he was in the chat groups.

“Just one?”

Qi Xiao showed an embarrassed expression, then held up two fingers.

“I still need two.”

Kong You looked at Qi Xiao with a blank expression. Qi Xiao coughed twice and awkwardly put away the modification extraction card.

“One is fine, I’ll figure out the rest myself…”

At this moment, Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng also walked in.

He held about ten button-sized black trackers in his hand.

“Done.”

“They’re really something, they put one in every car.”

Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng said proudly:

“Don’t worry, with my touch, there won’t be any missed.”

“It’s fine, if they come looking for us, I’ll kill you first.”

Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng grinned.

“Then I’ll go check again!”

After Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng left, Kong You looked at Qi Xiao.

“I’m leaving soon. Do you have any other questions?”

“Yes. If we don’t add each other as friends, how do I contact you if something comes up?”

Kong You pondered for two seconds, then pulled out a black, simply designed yuwo ring and handed it to Qi Xiao.

“What is this?”

Qi Xiao put the yuwo ring on his left index finger.

This was no ordinary yuwo ring; it was actually a spatial yuwo ring!

He sensed it; this yuwo ring had a storage space of a little over one cubic meter.

It was currently empty.

“Give me your hand.”

Kong You cut her index finger, and a drop of blood fell onto the yuwo ring.

Then she extended her finger to Qi Xiao’s mouth.

“Open your mouth.”

Qi Xiao understood Kong You’s intention and weakly said:

“Does it have to be this way?”

“You… don’t have AIDS, do you?”

Kong You had a speechless expression.

“No. I’m very healthy.”

“That’s good then.”

Qi Xiao took a step forward and opened his mouth with an “Ah.”

A sweet, metallic taste stained his tongue.

Just then, Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng happened to return and shouted at Qi Xiao, pointing:

“I told you to open your mouth, not to suck on it, you bastard!”

“Oh.”

Qi Xiao quickly released his mouth, and Kong You pulled out her finger, which was covered in saliva.

“Where are the tissues, damn it!”

Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng turned to look for tissues.

“Your turn.”

Then Qi Xiao, following Kong You’s instructions, performed the same operation.

He pricked his finger and dripped blood onto Kong You’s yuwo ring.

Then Kong You stuck out her tongue and caught a drop of blood squeezed out by Qi Xiao.

“Don’t worry, I’m very healthy too!”

Qi Xiao chuckled.

Just then, Qi Xiao felt a sudden suction, pulling his hand forward.

The two yuwo rings touched, emitting a strange black light.

A few seconds later, the black light dimmed, the suction disappeared, and the ritual was complete.

“This is the yuwo ring.”

“After pairing, the internal spaces of the two yuwo rings will merge.”

Qi Xiao sensed it; the storage space of the yuwo ring had indeed doubled.

With that, Kong You placed a Train coin into the yuwo ring.

Qi Xiao sensed that a Train coin had appeared in the internal space of the yuwo ring.

He surprisingly took it out.

“So, you can also retrieve things I put into the yuwo ring.”

“In the future, if you have anything, you can write a note and put it in; I’ll reply to your message when I see it.”

Good stuff.

Qi Xiao turned the unique yuwo ring over and over, examining it.

Unique function, unique pairing method.

“Of course, it’s best not to wear this yuwo ring on your hand normally. To prevent anyone from recognizing it.”

Qi Xiao nodded, took off the yuwo ring, and put it into his jie bracelet.

With that, a flash of white light, and the Train disappeared.

Kong You and Bu Zhihuo Yunsheng left.

Qi Xiao didn’t linger either; he also used Anchor Point Retrospection to leave the place.

In the silent forest, only crushed trackers lay scattered in the weeds, lonely.
