Chapter 374 Obedience and Inquiry
Ji Xinghan looked at Ji Yunnuan.
Ji Yunnuan winked at her.
She received a private message: "Xiaohan, you don't need to act, this guy already knows about our relationship."
Ji Xinghan then looked at Lü Linke.
Lu Linke widened his eyes dramatically: "Huh, isn't that right?"
Ji Yunnuan chuckled and turned her head: "Xiao Han, give me that little girl in your arms. I'll take her to find the half-werewolf and get you a treasure in return!"
Ji Xinghan immediately understood and turned around to hug the girl.
Lü Linke quickly raised his hand: "Wait!"
He sighed softly, "Alright, I give up. Who told me to run into you two sisters? Ji Yunnuan, tell me, what do you really want?"
Ji Yunnuan smiled and said, "What do I want? I don't believe you don't know!"
Lu Linke sighed, "Alright, I'll tell you now..."
Before Lü Linke could finish speaking, Ji Yunnuan suddenly stepped forward, and a flash of white light enveloped Lü Linke.
Lü Linke's gaze immediately went blank.
Ji Yunnuan asked, "Tell me, who is the key NPC in the next natural disaster? What are their characteristics? Where are they now?"
Ji Xinghan immediately understood that Ji Yunnuan had used the "obey orders" card.
Now, Lü Linke is seriously injured and quite weak, so this method is indeed suitable for him.
Lu Linke said blankly, enunciating each word clearly, "I don't know his name, nor do I know where he is. I only know one of his characteristics... He's rather short and chubby, and I heard he's an old man with white hair and a youthful face..."
He spoke very slowly, almost uttering each word one by one, and kept repeating the previous sentence.
Speaking was extremely difficult.
Ji Xinghan frowned. This wouldn't do. The validity period for obedience is only one minute. At the speed at which Lü Linke speaks frankly, he can't say anything in one minute.
Just as she was about to do something, Ji Yunnuan gently waved her hand.
Fine beads of sweat had appeared on Lü Linke's forehead.
He gritted his teeth and continued, "He...he likes...the only way to find him is through me, only me!"
At this moment, the minute was up, and the "obedience" failed. Lü Linke leaned back, breathing heavily, then looked up and revealed a smile: "Ji Yunnuan, are you satisfied with what I said?"
Ji Yunnuan smiled slightly: "It's alright. I'm already very satisfied that I was able to get these things out of you."
Ji Xinghan was a little anxious and secretly messaged Ji Yunnuan: "Sister, Lu Linke's sister is in our hands. We can use her to threaten Lu Linke. Why don't you ask her anymore?"
Ji Yunnuan replied, "No need to ask anymore. This guy talks nonsense. Asking too much might just trap you. I used 'obedient' just now, and he noticed, so he deliberately controlled himself, spoke slowly, and stalled for time. This information is enough. After all, there are no seventy or eighty-year-old men here!"
Ji Xinghan couldn't help but nod.
That's right. Most of the people here are players. If you see an old man in his seventies or eighties, he must be an NPC.
It's rare to see an NNPC in their seventies or eighties.
The information obtained is effective enough.
Ji Yunnuan seems to be quite wary of Lü Linke.
I was always afraid of being cheated by him; it seems I've been burned by this guy before.
Ji Yunnuan said to Ji Xinghan, "Alright, Xiaohan, give him his sister, so we won't be blamed if something goes wrong."
Ji Xinghan turned around, took the little girl off the white crane's back, and placed her in front of Lü Linke.
Lu Linke may have already taken the medicine; his body has recovered considerably, and his face has regained its color.
He gently picked up the girl, cherished her, and looked at her carefully, his eyes welling up with tears.
Ji Yunnuan glanced at Lü Linke, a dark glint flashing in her eyes, and said to Ji Xinghan, "Alright, let's go!"
Ji Xinghan remained motionless.
How could he possibly leave?
Lu Linke hasn't given her what he promised yet.
She reached out her hand: "Lu Linke, here comes the support skill blind box you promised!"
Lu Linke silently took out a small blind box and handed it to Ji Xinghan.
After confirming that everything was correct, Ji Xinghan put it away.
There's no time limit on this blind box, so she's not in a hurry to use it.
Ji Yunnuan quickly led her away.
Ji Xinghan asked curiously, "Sister, isn't Lü Linke your mortal enemy? Why didn't you take advantage of his weakness and kill him?"
Ji Yunnuan shook her head: "Killing him will cause big trouble."
Ji Xinghan persisted, "What big trouble is it?"
Ji Yunnuan smiled and tapped her forehead: "You, don't ask too many questions."
Ji Xinghan had no choice but to give up.
Now that we know some information about the key NPC, the next step is to find him.
Ji Yunnuan said, "There's no need to worry about Lü Linke now. His sister has been poisoned, and he'll try to find an antidote to save her. He doesn't have time to find the key NPCs right now, so we need to take advantage of this time to find them quickly."
How do I find the person?
Looking for an old man seems too aimless.
Ji Yunnuan turned around and smiled: "Xiao Han, we're counting on you for this. I heard that over 90% of the people here are from District 88. They got this opportunity because of you. Now ask them if anyone has seen the short, fat old man, okay?"
Ji Xinghan opened the Endless Frost chat channel.
This is the dungeon channel; everyone in the dungeon is in this channel.
At this moment, the channel was buzzing with activity:
"Are you all looking for Warm Fruit? Where is it? Please tell me!"
"They all went to Qingyun Ice Mountain. That ice mountain is towering into the clouds. I heard that they found the Nuannuan Fruit there."
"Yes, come quick! The chances of getting it are high, let's grab some treasure!"
Many people are talking about Warm Fruit.
This is the easiest treasure to obtain in this instance, either on a cedar tree or in an unnamed snow cave.
Therefore, everyone was very enthusiastic.
Posting messages in chat channels will definitely attract attention.
Ji Xinghan hesitated for a moment.
Ji Yunnuan chuckled: "Go ahead and say it. Four or five hours have already passed, and it will be dark in another four or five hours. It will be even harder to encounter NPCs at night. I trust your reputation in District 88!"
Helpless, Ji Xinghan could only send a message: "Has anyone seen a short, fat old man? If you have, please message me privately, thanks."
As soon as she sent the message, many people replied immediately:
"Okay, no problem, Boss Ji!"
"Old man, is he an NPC?"
"Why are you asking such silly questions? Just let the big boss know if you see him. Don't forget, without Boss Ji, we wouldn't even have had the chance to come to Endless Frost!"
"That's right, don't worry, Boss Ji, I'll definitely tell you as soon as I see the person you mentioned!"
"Yes, yes, are there any distinguishing features in the places where that old man is seen? Let us look for him for you."
Most people were very friendly and offered to help Ji Xinghan find someone.
Ji Xinghan quickly said, "Everyone, go about your business. Just let me know if you see anyone."
After finally finishing his work in the chat channel, Ji Xinghan went to see Ji Yunnuan.
Ji Yunnuan had a loving smile on her face. She touched Ji Xinghan's hair and said, "Xiaohan is so amazing. So many people are willing to help us."
Zhang Xiaoxiao slowly walked over.
Ever since Ji Xinghan left, she had been rushing in this direction and finally caught up with him.
Ji Xinghan privately messaged Ji Yunnuan, briefly introducing Zhang Xiaoxiao and emphasizing her innate skills.
Ji Yunnuan's eyes lit up: "Xiao Han, take her with you, she'll be useful!"
