Chapter 15 Xu Qianqian was attacked
In the end, Su Ming still maintained his last bit of integrity and did not really stand up. He was willing to be sucked dry by Xu Qianqian.
Of course, this has nothing to do with the fact that at the end of the fight, Xu Qianqian really pounced on him, bit him, and sucked him so hard that his legs became a little weak.
Even though he fell to the ground, Su Ming still looked like he would rather die than surrender, which was enough to show his indomitable spirit and persistence.
The premise is that you must ignore the involuntary arc of his mouth. "I'm sorry."
With a suspicious blush on her face, Xu Qianqian squatted in front of Su Ming with her knees bent and gave an embarrassed explanation.
"I didn't plan to do this, but your blood is too attractive to me. Normally, I can control my desire to suck blood, but only when I'm facing you, I might be unable to resist when I'm irrational."
Obviously, I was being rather irrational just now.
After all, Xu Qianqian was indeed pissed off by Su Ming.
Su Ming glanced at Xu Qianqian and looked at her rosy cheeks. He suddenly felt that the eldest daughter of the Xu family was really naive about the ways of the world.
The previous conflict in this suburban area could be explained by severe injuries and mental problems, but after this contact, Su Ming discovered that perhaps this young lady was not as cold and beautiful as outsiders imagined.
Would a truly cool person reveal the information that others wanted to know before achieving their goal? Xu Qianqian hadn't even achieved her goal yet, but she explained everything Su Ming wanted to know. Afterwards, Su Ming wanted to leave without paying, but this woman's method of retaining him was so simple and crude, and she even apologized.
Presumably, this woman must be very much loved by her family? This obviously means that she has not suffered the beatings of society.
"Okay." Su Ming could only say helplessly: "Tell me what you want me to do in exchange for letting me go."
"Your statement is very rude." Xu Qianqian frowned and said, "I'm not threatening you."
"Huh?" Su Ming raised his eyebrows and said, "So, it's okay even if I don't agree to your request?"
Xu Qianqian was silent for a while, then nodded.
"If you really don't want to agree, I won't force you."
Xu Qianqian made a promise.
"That's what you said!"
Su Ming perked up and immediately turned over and sat up.
Seeing this scene, Xu Qianqian was also speechless.
How much does this person not want to help me?
If I ask others for help, the people who are willing to pay for me at all costs will probably have to line up outside Longyao Base City, right? This person is so evasive, it's really confusing! However, it must be said that Su Ming's performance made Xu Qianqian more or less interested in him.
This attitude of avoiding her as much as possible was something Xu Qianqian had never seen in her life.
Therefore, Xu Qianqian couldn't help but feel some interest in "this attitude is really fresh".
"Go ahead." Su Ming dusted himself off and asked casually, "What do you want me to do for you?"
As soon as the serious matter was mentioned, Xu Qianqian immediately became serious.
"I would like you to help me investigate the suspicious group that night."
Xu Qianqian finally had the chance to mention her purpose.
"What's the reason?" Su Ming was not surprised, but asked: "You said that this is related to your mission, right?"
"Yes." Xu Qianqian nodded and said, "That happened almost a month ago."
Next, Xu Qianqian explained the whole incident to Su Ming.
According to him, the suspicious group was noticed almost a month ago.
They suddenly appeared in Longyao Base City, and seemed to be chasing something. They were active in the dark, while constantly causing quite a bit of noise, attracting the attention of many interested people.
Just like that night, here, they caught up with something and started a fierce battle with each other. The noise caused at that time was not small at all, it could even be said to be very loud.
In the past month, this suspicious group has caused such a stir more than once. It is impossible for them not to be noticed by those with ulterior motives.
Naturally, their suspicious behavior also aroused the vigilance of many people.
Especially since there are twenty or thirty hunters and warlocks gathered in this suspicious group, it makes people have to be more vigilant.
Those hunters and warlocks are not the students who are still studying in the Demon Hunting Academy, but professional hunters and warlocks.
Such a force can become a highly-watched combat force even in the top families.
Now, this force is pursuing something in secret and causing such a big commotion. It is impossible for the base city not to take action.
Originally, the senior officials of Base City were planning to send people to directly detain this suspicious group and inquire about the details in person.
Who would have thought that whenever there was any targeted action from the base city, that suspicious group would actually evacuate first and disappear without a trace, making it impossible to find any trace at all.
It would be fine if this happened once or twice, but for nearly a month, that suspicious group has always been able to avoid the people sent from the base city. It would be strange if there was no problem.
Su Ming understood immediately.
"There is someone behind this group, and the other party may have a very high status among the top leaders of Longyao Base City."
Only in this way can we explain why this group can always know in advance and successfully avoid any action in the base city.
The only possible reason could be that there was a traitor among the top leaders of the base city.
Or... "That suspicious group is actually a force that someone in the high-ranking officials of Base City has secretly raised, right?"
Su Ming pointed out the inside story.
Xu Qianqian neither admitted it nor denied it.
Obviously, this was also one of Xu Qianqian's guesses.
"I almost understand." Su Ming said to Xu Qianqian, "Someone in the Base City's upper echelons has started to suspect this. They suspect that this incident was caused by an ambitious person among us who is taking some shameful actions, so they plan to send someone to investigate secretly, right?"
"Yes." Xu Qianqian raised her eyes and looked at Su Ming with surprise and admiration, and said, "This mission is not assigned by the academy, but by some high-level officials in the base city. The difficulty of the mission is temporarily set as A-level."
Although the enemy was a group of 20 to 30 professional hunters and warlocks, and the other side was suspected to be backed by the top leaders of the base city, the mission was only an investigation, so the difficulty of the mission did not reach the highest S level.

"Why did such a task fall into your hands?"
Su Ming was puzzled.
Such a mission obviously shouldn't be carried out by a student who is still studying at the Demon Hunting Academy, right?
Since the top leaders of Base City are involved, sending their trusted aides to carry out this mission is the natural thing to do, isn't it?
Su Ming's doubts were soon resolved.
"The other party is suspected to have a senior official from the base city behind them, so any use of professional hunters and warlocks may be detected by the other party using their authority." Xu Qianqian said: "Unless they use private soldiers like that suspicious group, who have no records, otherwise, there is a possibility that they will be detected by the other party."
If unrecorded private soldiers are discovered, the problem can be either big or small.
Obviously, all of humanity is gathering all its living forces to fight against the phantom demons and the Spirit Demon Prison, but someone secretly hides unrecorded private soldiers. Isn't this equivalent to telling others that these private soldiers under their command are not here to work for all of humanity, but to work for ulterior motives? Once such a thing is exposed, if someone with ulterior motives uses it to hype it up and use national justice to suppress it, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble.
In view of this, the private soldiers secretly trained by some people must not be seen in public, as they will die if seen in public.
And this time the mission was at best an investigation, and it was a mission issued jointly by some of the high-ranking officials in the base city. It was absolutely impossible for them to openly use private soldiers and give the politicians around them a handle.
Therefore, this task fell on the students who had not yet become professional hunters or professional warlocks.
This student must have strength no less than that of a professional hunter or professional warlock, and must be one of us, able to judge the severity of the matter and know the implications.
Under such circumstances, Xu Qianqian, the eldest daughter of the Xu family, was chosen.
Su Ming had reason to believe that among the senior officials of the base city who issued this task, there was someone from the Xu family.
In this way, they can absolutely trust Xu Qianqian.
After learning this, Su Ming said it without any hesitation.
"The people in your family are really careless. They dared to let a delicate beauty like you do such a dangerous mission. Aren't they afraid that something might happen to you?"
I thought this young lady was very favored at home, but could it be that the opposite is true?
"Don't underestimate me." Xu Qianqian said unhappily, "It's just an investigation. It's not like I haven't completed A-level missions before."
That's true.
It has been two years since Xu Qianqian entered school. Now in the third grade, she has completed A-level tasks more than once.
Even though this young lady had only completed two A-level tasks, she had ultimately proved that she was capable of completing A-level tasks.
In addition, Su Ming also didn't believe that the eldest daughter of the Xu family would not have some means of life-saving and unknown trump cards. It was not completely incomprehensible that this task fell on Xu Qianqian's head.
But the problem arises again.
"In that case, why did you need my help, and why were you seriously injured that night?"
Su Ming finally asked this question.
At this moment, Xu Qianqian's face suddenly turned completely cold.
"Because someone attacked me."
Xu Qianqian's expression was extremely cold.
