Chapter 639 [(*^▽^*)]
The NPC I met in the mall and the NPC who kept the little turtle are no longer at home, and I don't even know when they left the surveillance cameras.
After exchanging a glance, the two decided to retrieve their mechanical spiders. Now that they had discovered the surveillance, they figured they wouldn't be monitored anymore.
"Right now, only Li Qianqian is still under our surveillance. She stayed at home all day and didn't go out. We don't know what she's planning to do."
Lin Leyou said, "It's alright. Whatever your plans are, they won't get in our way."
The two drew the curtains, went back to bed, and continued refining their plan until…
About an hour later, around 7 p.m., Lin Leyou and Xue Rui suddenly looked up and exchanged a glance. "You saw it?"
Xue Rui nodded, "I saw it. Several dark figures appeared near Li Qianqian's house."
Lin Leyou: "Li Qianqian just went out."
Why go out at 7 PM instead of during the day? I don't know what I'm thinking. Wait a minute... going out at 7 PM seems like I might run into people who are in a hurry to get home?
Is it possible to exploit loopholes?
Under the surveillance of the mechanical spiders, they actually saw Li Qianqian's eyes searching for a target on the road. She looked at this person and that person, and finally chose a seemingly harmless person.
Lin Leyou said helplessly, "Does Li Qianqian not have a brain? In this kind of dungeon, the more harmless she seems, the more like she's fishing for attention."
"Those who lack self-confidence, have little strength, and are easily triggered by the rules of death are unlikely to appear harmless, innocent, or even easy to bully. They will only raise their thorns and look at everyone with vigilance and defensiveness."
Xue Rui said, "Li Qianqian might fall victim to this person."
Lin Leyou: "I don't care, if I'm dead, I'm dead. Anyway, it's past seven o'clock now, and I'm absolutely not going out."
Li Qianqian isn't worth it.
Xue Rui, "No need to go out, just sleep?"
Lin Leyou shook his head, "I'm not sleepy yet. I can wait until eight o'clock to go to sleep. That way, we can go out at two or three in the morning to find a... good place."
Xue Rui: "Okay."
Lin Leyou continued scrolling through his phone. Xue Rui glanced at it; their phones were currently displaying a rough map of the entire city in the instance where the Kingdom of Rules was located.
After careful observation, they discovered that this city was several times larger than the capital city of Z province in the real world, with countless shopping malls, plazas, markets, high-rise buildings, residential areas, and communities.
There are still many targets, but choosing the places they like is definitely...
Although they were supposedly studying the plan, they were also secretly observing Li Qianqian's situation. They had just seen several suspicious figures nearby. Now, Li Qianqian had found a passerby who seemed innocent but was actually a scheming person, and the two were talking and seemed to be getting along well.
"By the way, it's so late and you're still out. How about I take you home? Be careful, it's almost eight o'clock."
Li Qianqian looked at the man, somewhat surprised by his initiative, so she didn't agree immediately. "This, isn't that inappropriate... I just came out to take care of some business, I'll be back soon, my home is nearby."
"It's okay, I'll go with you. It's so late, I don't know if anyone's watching you. Come on, didn't you have some business to attend to? Hurry up and finish it so I can take you home. Then I have to go back too, I need to hurry."
Li Qianqian nodded reluctantly, "Okay, I'll go over there."
She walked over to the small shop not far away. The person who was looking at the shop was the homeowner, and the other party's residence was upstairs, so all she had to do was close the door and go upstairs.
"Oh dear, why are you here now? Hurry up, I'm closing soon."
Li Qianqian: "Sorry, I'm in a bit of a hurry. I'll be done soon."
She quickly went inside, selected some things that women urgently need, and since she was already there, she also picked out some pretty good snacks to pay for.
When she came out, it was already 7:30, which meant it would be 8 o'clock in half an hour. Li Qianqian thought the man would be in a hurry, but to her surprise, he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.
She put everything on the counter, and it took her several minutes to pack up and pay.
The owner closed the door the moment they left the store.
Li Qianqian looked at him and said, "Hey? Why aren't you going back yet? It's almost eight o'clock."
"It's okay, there's still half an hour. I'll take you first."
Li Qianqian blinked. "It's okay. There's no one outside now, so there's no need for an escort. I can go back by myself. If you take me back, I won't have enough time to get home."
"It's okay. If I don't have enough time, I'll just stay at your place for four hours. I can come out at midnight anyway."
Li Qianqian didn't expect this man to be so direct. She stood there quietly for a few minutes, thinking. The man didn't press her for an answer and waited patiently for her response.
Both sides already knew what the other meant and what their purpose was. If Li Qianqian agreed, they could decide the winner later. If she didn't agree, then... they would decide the winner right here.
Li Qianqian thought for a long time before nodding, "Then I'll trouble you."
She then walked in a certain direction, and as she walked, she took out a delicious snack from her bag and handed it to him, saying, "Here you go, it's very tasty, I especially like eating this."
The man took it. "Thank you."
He then stuffed it into his pocket. He shouldn't eat food given to him by others; as long as he didn't eat it, he would be fine.
Li Qianqian knew he wouldn't eat it, but it didn't matter. She wasn't expecting to get back at him like that anyway. The two of them, each with their own ulterior motives, kept walking forward, but soon the man realized she was going in circles.
"Hey? Didn't we just walk this way?"
It's 7:46 now, and there are only a few minutes left until 8:00. Li Qianqian has already prepared her props. If he doesn't leave, she can definitely...
Li Qianqian was taken aback for a moment. "Huh? Really? Sorry, it's too dark, I can't see very clearly. It looks like this, right... this is the way. Look at me, I didn't even notice..."
"It's okay, it's the same now."
The man seemed to be getting a little anxious; it appeared he still needed to get into the house before eight o'clock, even if it wasn't his own.
Li Qianqian walked faster than before this time. After walking for a few more minutes, it was 7:53, with only seven minutes left.
But Li Qianqian was still wandering around outside, showing no sign of entering any building. The man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. "Aren't we there yet? It's almost time."
Li Qianqian stopped and checked the time. "Don't rush, there are still a few minutes left. You can stay at my house later."
Just then, she led the man into the entrance of a building, and the man looked at the entrance and was 100% certain that he had passed by here twice before.
It seemed there was no turning back now. He gritted his teeth and followed Li Qianqian inside and upstairs.
Finally, at the last minute, the two arrived at the front door of a house. Li Qianqian was looking for the key, but she couldn't find it!
"Huh? Where are my keys?"
The man froze. No keys? How could that be? There were only forty seconds left until eight o'clock!
"What's wrong with you? If you don't open the door now, don't blame me for being impolite."
Liu Qianqian wasn't scared by him. Instead, she frantically searched her bag and body for her keys. "Don't panic, I'm looking for them. I clearly remember them being here..."
Thirty seconds.
The man had already pulled a long knife from his sleeve. If Li Qianqian didn't open the door within twenty seconds, he would kill her and then kick the door open to go inside.
Li Qianqian sensed the murderous aura behind her, but she didn't take it to heart at all; this was the moment she had been waiting for.
The moment the knife silently swung from behind, Li Qianqian ducked to avoid it, then leaped away several times, disappearing from the man in just a second.
Ten seconds.
The man ignored Li Qianqian and the things she had left on the ground. Just as he was about to kick open the door in front of him, he suddenly felt dizzy and fell to the ground.
Only then did he notice that the bag Li Qianqian had been carrying contained not only the items she had bought at the store, but also a broken bottle of liquid that had spilled out of the bag and evaporated rapidly within seconds.
He knew that this must be it.
Time's up.
It was eight o'clock. The man clutched his neck in great pain and then fell silent. Only then did Li Qianqian emerge from the corner where she had been hiding.
She rushed over, found the key, opened the door, and then carried her things inside. Once inside, she breathed a sigh of relief, put her things aside, and was about to close the door when she suddenly realized it wouldn't close.
Li Qianqian looked down in surprise and saw a hand gripping the door, preventing her from closing it.
"not good!"
Only then did she realize that she hadn't received the system notification and hadn't earned ten million points. Oh no! If she went out now, she'd definitely…
Left with no other choice, she released her grip and quickly retreated to the living room, taking out her weapons and props as she went.
The man got up and went inside, then closed the door in front of her.
"What's wrong with you? I kindly brought you back, and you repay kindness with enmity?"
Li Qianqian was no longer the same as she had been outside. Now she had to hold her breath for at least a minute or two for the gas to dissipate completely.
She even cautiously walked to the window and opened it to let in some fresh air, which made her feel much better.
