Chapter 13 Passive Skills
"Mr. Evan, what's wrong?" The butler called Evan. The servants usually respected him very much, and Su Su also called him that.
Evan looked worried and said with embarrassment, "The people from the Investigation Bureau came and asked Miss to go back with them. Because of your special status, they have received orders to protect you and move you to a better place to live."
Qiao Suisui frowned, "So sudden?"
"Yes. He said he had already informed the master."
"Does Luka also agree to let me go with them?"
Evan's worried frown relaxed upon hearing this, and he smiled kindly, "Of course. The master is a colonel in the military after all. Although the FBI and the military are independent, they still have to notify the master first. After all, no one wants to offend the Scorsese family."
She looked at the tall men standing in front of the warship. When they saw Su Su's gaze, they immediately knelt on one knee with their left hand on their shoulder. Some of them even looked up at her secretly.
"What will happen if I don't go with them?"
Evan's smile widened. "Even the master cannot disobey the Federation's orders. I believe you will not make things difficult for the master."
She hummed, then put on an innocent smile. "Is that so? I'll go back and pack up and come back."
She turned around and her expression immediately became alert. Just as she was about to step out, Evan stopped her.
"Miss Sui Sui, do you have any personal belongings?"
Hearing him subtly emphasize the word "private", Qiao Susu immediately understood that he was reminding her that everything she had here was given to her by Luka.
"How about this, if you need anything, just tell me and I will prepare it for you."
Seeing that Evan had shut her up and didn't give her any chance to sneak back and tell Luca, she could only smile and say, "Thank you. Take all the clothes that Liberi bought for me. I like them very much. Oh, and the ice silk bedding that Luca sent. I still have it in my drawer." Qiao Susu rambled on and on until she saw a crack in Evan's perfect smile. She gradually stopped, "Remember it, right? There are a lot of things. How about I go with you?"
Evan immediately interrupted: "You just sit in the garden for a while." Then he turned around and ordered the servants to quickly pack up everything in her room and send it to the spaceship.
While they waited, Evan followed Qiao Suisui wherever she went. She touched her wrist and twisted the pearl to activate the emergency call mode on the computer. The computer automatically called Liberi, but after a moment, she realized the call failed. She looked down and found that the signal had been blocked.
Sui Sui sat on the stone steps with her eyes lowered in thought.
The security system at the annex was extremely high, and except for authorized personnel, it was impossible for anyone else to open the door from the outside. The fact that these people were able to enter at this time meant that someone had opened the door for them from the inside. Were they really FBI agents? Her being taken to the garden, the blocked signal, and Evan's dominance were all too coincidental.
She couldn't go with these people. Although Luka was hot and cold towards her, at least he had saved her, so she could trust him for now. But these people were different. But as long as Evan was around, it looked like he wouldn't let her stay. What should she do?
[System, what props can I use? ]
[Current reward: 0, points: 0. ]
[So you're just going to watch me get into danger?]
【No danger detected.】
Qiao Susu gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and gave up on communicating.
As time passed, she became increasingly anxious. Seeing that the servants had already loaded all the belongings onto the ship, some of them, who were usually close to her, would look towards Qiao Suisui from time to time, their faces filled with worry.
Suddenly, a light flashed in her eyes.
Evan came to urge: "Miss Sui Sui, please come aboard."
She walked slowly to the elevator and said, "I want to wait for Luka to come back, at least to thank him in person for taking care of me during this time."
Before Evan could say anything, a two-meter-tall man in military uniform approached her and said respectfully, "Colonel Scorsese is at the bureau right now. You can come with us first. We'll have a chance to arrange a meeting later."
"Where are you sending me?"
"Dr. Munakata is already waiting for you at the Paleoanthropology Research Center. The journey will take five or six days, but don't worry, we have a chef and medical team prepared for you on the ship, so your daily life won't be a problem."
She then asked a few more questions, and the man answered them in a very good manner. It sounded like there was no danger and he would even take good care of her, but Su Su's intuition told her that she couldn't leave.
Evan urged again: "Miss Sui Sui, I wish you a safe journey."
She pinched the hem of her skirt and stepped onto the elevator under everyone's gaze, followed closely by the federal people.
Light and shadow floated, and soon the elevator rose to the cabin door.
With the sound of the door opening, Qiao Susu sighed.
I can only take a gamble!
Without a second's hesitation, she rushed out of the elevator door, stood on top of the giant flying ship and jumped down.
"Sui Sui!!!!"
Luka's heart-wrenching voice came from the sky above Legault Palace.
At the same time, a prompt sounded in Qiao Suisui's mind: [Sudden danger detected, passive skill activated]
The whole process of Qiao Susu jumping down was done in one go, just in the blink of an eye.
It was so fast! None of the federal men could catch her! The man with the fastest reaction only managed to touch the edge of her clothes.
Everyone's expressions of shock were still etched on their faces when, with a loud bang, a small flying ship swooped down, creating a large crater in the ground. As the ship rapidly descended, a massive lion leaped from the ship's emergency window and, the next second, appeared beside Sui Sui, hugging her tightly.
Evan's eyes snapped open.
Teleport?
How could this happen? When did the master awaken his talent?
'boom--'
A big hole was smashed into the ground, and the dust was stirred up to form a circle. In the rising dust, a huge lion was lying in the huge hole.
Qiao Susu felt like she was lying in a soft yet firm embrace.
Just as she'd predicted, the system activated its passive skill whenever she entered danger, just like when she'd first traveled through time. That passive skill had been a scent, but this time it was a protective shield. Others could only see a golden holy light lingering around her. She remembered that on the day of the auction, her passive skill had been activated in a moment of danger, so she took the risk. Sure enough, the system wouldn't let her die like that.
The tentacles were furry and her eyes widened immediately.
How could there be a lion? I seemed to hear Luka's voice just now. Could it be that
She propped herself up with her arms and found a huge lion lying beneath her, with its eyes closed and not moving, and it looked like it had no breathing or heartbeat.
