My Notoriety Spreads Throughout the World Chapter 182 168: Don't Let the Door Hit You on the Way Out

Xu Xiaoyou blinked.

The expression on the gray-haired girl's face vanished once again, returning to that eternal frost. Her deanor was calm as if everything just now was rely her illusion.

Xu Xiaoyou didn't think much of it, assuming she had seen incorrectly and continued sitting in her place, sipping the grape juice in her cup as she waited.

A few minutes later, a figure appeared in the seat to her left front, condensed from light and shadows; the girl had long brown hair and irises that were purple like irises. Her height wasn't tall, but in the embellishnt of a purple dress with ruffles, her deanor was more dignified, and the arrogance in her gaze was unabashed.

"You're the newly promoted S-grade agent? Not much to look at."

There was no attempt to conceal her opinion in the girl's words.

"Genius Little Via"

This was the girl's ID.

At this mont, two more figures erged, their presence appearing in the seats to Xu Xiaoyou's right front and directly in front of her.

"Sorry, everyone, I am a mont late, which I realize is discourteous." The figure to Xu Xiaoyou's right front spoke, his chanically synthesized voice echoing.

He was dressed in a suit, with a fish tank atop his neck, inside of which a little goldfish swam, occasionally spitting out a few bubbles, its grain-sized eyes watching the others present.

Xu Xiaoyou looked at the information of that person—"Genius Little Goldfish."

"Hiss, wait a mont."

The person with the ID 'Genius Little Goldfish' quickly ran to the corner, sighed with relief after confirming the potted virtual Hugging Little Flower he nurtured wasn't dead, and then took a few steps to Xu Xiaoyou's side. Without hesitation, he formally and with gentlemanly etiquette took her hand:

"Thank you so much, beautiful lady, you saved a life."

"I believe you must have a kind, beautiful, and pure heart."

Xu Xiaoyou's mouth twitched slightly: "You're so sure it was who watered it?"

"Yes, because Vireya and Darwin would never arrive early, not even by a second," he said in a lowered voice.

"Charles, is that goldfish in your tank underfed? I can hear your badmouthing from here." The girl spoke up.

Charles laughed awkwardly but without losing decorum and quietly returned to his seat.

Xu Xiaoyou's gaze also naturally fell upon the person sitting opposite her at the other end of the conference table, who, like her, was holding his chin with both hands, wearing a suit and tie. Even though the small TV on his head had no eyes, Xu Xiaoyou could sense a pair of haunting eyes watching her.

"Genius Little Television."

This was his ID, emanating waves of powerful and steady aura from him. Just as Xu Xiaoyou was starting to feel slightly uneasy from being watched, the girl nad Vireya directly stepped forward and slapped the tal fra of the TV.

"Stop sleeping, Darwin."

Darwin, with the TV on his head, lifted his head drowsily, a steady line passing through the black screen, then starting to oscillate:

"Sorry, everyone, I've been handling matters related to the Chichu Family not long ago. The patriarch over there has just taken office, the political situation is still unstable, and these past few days have left ntally and physically exhausted."

Saying this, a sorrowful expression appeared on Darwin's TV screen.

Xu Xiaoyou observed the three people and the layout of the room. There were a total of twelve seats in the conference room, indicating that Cosmic Heavy Industries had twelve S-grade agents, but only three were present at this eting.

She was positioned at the last seat.

"I've been annoyed by that Diamond 9 for a long ti. If she weren't my direct supervisor, I wouldn't bother attending such dull etings!" The brown-haired girl Vireya complained.

"I'm very busy. Every day there are tons of things to deal with, who has the ti to fraternize with others."

"Don't be so hasty, Little Via, it's been a long ti since the company had a promotion to S-grade agent. Regarding our new colleague, we should be kind and patient." Charles, the Little Goldfish said amiably.

Little Television Darwin: "Zzz."

"Corrupt Nest City, that rundown place whose annual economic volu doesn't even reach a tenth of Chichu Heaven, what value does an S-grade agent from such a place have? It's nothing more than doing so debt-collecting work to be rated S-grade."

Vireya spoke arrogantly: "Why should I build a good relationship with such a second-rate person? How does that benefit ?"

"But Puppet Master Yorick and his brother Yorif, their commissions were completed by this lady." Charles said. "Oh, yes, and the debt collection commission related to Heart of Desire earlier."

Little Television Darwin: "Zzz."

"I rember, Heart of Desire wasn't resolved by her, right? Speaking of which, it reminds , did you hear, Little Goldfish, about the matter related to Corrupt Nest City?"

"Of course, it was truly unexpected that in just a few days, the Nest City with a population of millions was destroyed by strange tales." Charles said regretfully. "A cruel and sorrowful world."

"The association underestimated the level of Heart of Desire; who could have thought such a strange tale was initially classified as a disaster?"

Darwin woke: "Want to hear a ghost story, related to Corrupt Nest City?"

Vireya and Charles showed interest, and the forr didn't beat around the bush.

"The news of Corrupt Nest City being destroyed has already leaked out. Perhaps before long, the people from Star of Art and Chichu Heaven will also know about this."

"The eerie thing is, a destroyed pale Nest City, like a ghost, yet a Heart's Desire train appeared there, picking up a passenger who appeared ghost-like."

Darwin lowered his voice, sounding mysterious, noticing that everyone present was coldly staring at him. He scratched the TV on his head: "Isn't that creepy?"

"The point is, why would a passenger from Heart's Desire train appear in a place already destroyed?"

"The association knows about this, they've identified the passenger; a silver-haired girl fused with the characteristics of Heart of Desire, becoming a newly born world-class strange tale, and headed to Star of Art." Darwin said.

"By the way, did sothing happen over at Star of Art this morning?" Vireya asked.

"Yes, the Fifth Tier Battle Banner Master, Chichu Hong, led an association's Special Sixth Class to launch an assault on that silver-haired girl. Unfortunately, they could only seriously wound her and let her escape." Charles said.

"Chichu Hong, that guy, is very strong, hailed as the Red Rose bringing victory and dawn to the battlefield. Under the Battle Banner's blessing, almost all of Sixth Class possesses Fifth Tier combat strength. Their combat power would never be less than the Prism Tier Cleaner. Given Chichu Heaven's situation over the years, it's comndable that she has supported them to this point."

Silently listening to the conversations of the others, Xu Xiaoyou's thoughts crossed her mind. The intel network possessed by these S-grade agents far surpassed hers. Through their discussions, she gained so inside information.

It turns out Anya was facing this level of enemy, a Fifth Tier Battle Banner Master.

At this ti, everyone in the room ceased their conversation, turning their gaze toward the corner where the golden-haired girl was less noticeable. Vireya snorted and spoke:

"So you'd better quickly show yourself, so we have a reason to keep staying here and conducting this boring eting."

Xu Xiaoyou considered for a mont, then made a move completely beyond everyone's expectations. Under the surprised gazes of the three S-grade agents, she slowly raised her legs onto the table and leaned back against the chair:

"Take care, I'm not seeing you off."
