The Alliance’s epaulettes are custom-made, and the real from the fake can be identified at a glance. Because of this, Li You grows increasingly suspicious of Su Jiang.
And where did that strange dicine get smuggled from? Don’t even ntion the black market; this reason might fool a kid like Gu Ningxuan, but not an old hand like Li You! There’s too much weirdness in this, forcing one to ponder deeply.
Li You cast an inquisitive look at Gu Ningzhi, only to find this unreliable friend looking absent-minded, making him so angry he wanted to jump up and bite! Damn, putting such an unreliable guy in the Expedition Army won’t cause problems, really?
Rarely, Li You starts doubting if his decision was right or wrong... Getting to know a problematic friend like Gu Ningzhi is basically a life tragedy of step-by-step errors, and he certainly doesn’t want this jinx to end up harming the Expedition Army...
Given that Su Jiang’s current appearance is too flashy, she borrowed a trench coat from Luo Xin to cover herself up thoroughly. Luckily, Luo Xin’s current figure is similar to hers, so wearing it doesn’t seem too out of place.
According to the original plan, Su Jiang would guard the sky, communicating with them from above, a decision Li You and the others have already accepted.
With her current look, Su Jiang really isn’t suited to appear at Xilena First Affiliated School; she’s bound to attract attention, making any action difficult and cumberso. Volunteering to take to the sky now avoids one hassle.
"That dicine... if you need it, you can take it in a hidden place after arriving at the school..." Su Jiang hesitated as she spoke, unsure of what changes would occur after these people took it, "The academy festival lasts more than just today; they might not act today, so everyone doesn’t have to be too restrained, just treat this as a trip out for fun!"
The academy festival of Xilena First Affiliated School could be said to be a rare grand event on Qiming Star, usually lasting seven days.
These seven days are also the students’ favorite ti; no studying, and they can play as much as they like. Su Jiang was sure the prison-breakers would act during the festival, but she didn’t know the exact day, and even Rebirth Sister’s diary didn’t ntion the specific ti...
After several checks, the five people apart from Su Jiang split up tacitly; Gu Ningzhi and Li You’s target locations were quite close, so the two walked together by chance. Gu Ningzhi walked in front, with Li You slightly behind by half a step.
After a while, Li You looked at Gu Ningzhi with a bit of a headache and asked, "How did you get to know that girl?"
"Girl?" Gu Ningzhi thought for a mont, then asked back, "Are you asking about Susu? Haha, it’s quite a coincidence; we t by the small lake near the Advanced Departnt of this school when she was delivering food... That girl, tsk tsk, her mouth is too sharp. I always felt if she were born a few decades earlier, maybe she could join us..."
That sharp-tongued fit his temperant perfectly. As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together, and Gu Ningzhi just likes this type!
Li You was silent for a mont and shared what he knew, "I know your personality; for sure you’ve investigated her identity before this, any special findings? This kid... always gives people an unlikable feeling."
Gu Ningzhi nodded seriously, joking, "I understand this point, after all, she previously wore a uniform equivalent to your rank; no matter who it is, they wouldn’t feel comfortable. But my feelings are the opposite of yours, that girl is actually quite interesting."
"Interesting?" Li You pondered his words; it’s rare for soone to pique Gu Ningzhi’s "interest".
Furthermore, Li You trusted his buddy’s heart for the Alliance’s Guardian. If Su Jiang had anything suspicious, the first person not to let her go would probably be Gu Ningzhi. Now he didn’t say the other party was "dangerous," but instead gave a "interesting" evaluation...
Does this an Su Jiang isn’t as dangerous as he sensed? But... considering she’s a sixteen-year-old girl from a poor planet who made her way to Qiming Star, the things happening around her are too bizarre to ignore.
Gu Ningzhi noticed his thoughts and sneered, "Even the Qin Family hasn’t taken any action; there’s no need for you to worry here. No matter how strange the behavior, where can it go? At most, she’s just a sixteen-year-old girl..."
His words were naturally hypocritical; how could Su Jiang look like a sixteen-year-old girl! But if a small lie could dispel Li You’s suspicions, it was worth it. Before their cooperation with Su Jiang ended, Gu Ningzhi didn’t want her to suffer any external harm.
"Furthermore, just a hint, Susu and the Gu Family also have so connections, but I can’t say much about the specifics; you’ll naturally understand then." Gu Ningzhi even brought up the Gu Family, so even with more doubts, Li You could only swallow them.
Both of them watched the students in the academy laughing and chatting and the residents of Qiming Star coming to participate in the festival, involuntarily recalling past events. Although the students have changed over and over, Xilena First Affiliated School hasn’t changed much... it’s them, the students who left the school, who’ve experienced the vicissitudes of life and no longer possess the sa mindset as before.
Gu Ningzhi was contemplating finding a hidden place to use that dicine but saw Li You frowning deeply and teasingly asked, "Little Squid, are you so caught up in nostalgia here that you’ve forgotten the current mont?"
"No... I was just considering whether to use this dicine..." Li You snorted coldly.
"Do you intend... to take this dicine for examination?" Gu Ningzhi quickly guessed his thought, "Suspect the dicine has issues?"
"Such a dication naturally has research value..." Li You didn’t et his gaze, "Relax, I won’t hand the dicine over to the authorities, just find a friend for private testing and analysis..."
