Chapter 700 Setting Off



"Are you sure you don't need me to stay and take care of her?" Lisa asked Li Bingchen with some concern, looking at Yun Duo lying unconscious on the guest room bed.

Of course not!

Li Bingchen shook his head vigorously: "Really, there's no need. You go and eat. I'll take care of her here. It was her idea to drink in the first place. I'm already sorry for causing you trouble, how can I trouble you any further?"

Lisa looked at Li Bingchen sincerely and said, "No, you are all our guests. Taking care of you is a task that my parents entrusted to us. It's no trouble at all. I can take good care of her. I've seen my mother take care of my father. Sometimes when my father comes home drunk, it's my mother who takes care of him."

This really won't work.

Li Bingchen shook his head again: "Really, it's not necessary. Thank you, Lisa. But I think we should let Yun Duo sleep quietly for a while. Look, she's not making a fuss at all. Some people are like that when they're drunk. As long as she sleeps peacefully, she'll be fine. Yun Duo is probably like that. Or, I can go with you. If no one disturbs her, she'll definitely sleep better."

...

...

Because of Li Bingchen's insistence, Lisa ultimately left Yun Duo in the guest room by herself. However, she poured her a glass of water and placed it on the bedside table, and wiped Yun Duo's face with a warm towel before leaving the room with Li Bingchen.

Once she was sure everyone had left, Yun Duo jumped out of bed and looked at the water glass on the bedside table, unable to help but sigh.

What a good child, very caring.

However, now is not the time to reminisce about that. Although she had temporarily pretended to be drunk and disappeared from everyone's sight, getting to Professor Song Lixing's house from here was not an easy task.

Fortunately, whether it was because she was bound to Xiao Jiu or for some other reason, although Yun Duo did not deliberately practice martial arts or anything like that, she was still very agile and skillful. She was also strong in her hands, and easily used a specially made thin rope to climb out of the window. Then, together with Xiao Jiu, they left Mr. Willis's house through a blind spot in the security system and took a shortcut to the neighborhood where Professor Song Lixing's house was located.

The neighborhood where Mr. Willis and his group lived, along with the entire surrounding area, could actually be considered one of the most upscale communities in Huadu. It was one of the communities that the Huadu municipal government prioritized protecting, making it very safe. Of course, there were also many patrols. If it weren't for Xiao Jiu, Yun Duo would have been discovered long ago.

Fortunately, there's Xiao Jiu.

It flew high in the sky, and could communicate with the clouds directly through telepathy to any movement around it, allowing her to find a hiding place as quickly as possible. This enabled her to evade several official and private patrols and perfectly avoid all surveillance.

Of course, this is also because the current surveillance facilities are still very primitive and crude, and their performance is completely incomparable to the surveillance facilities of later generations. It's only because they are now in the most prosperous and upscale community of the most technologically advanced country, the United States, which is far ahead of the world's level, that surveillance would not exist at all.

To put it bluntly, China today doesn't even have this kind of crude and primitive surveillance equipment; it can't even be bought, because this kind of thing is currently considered a "high-tech" product that is "restricted" from export.
