"You match the information on your ID cards exactly. Identity verification passed. You two may go in."
Quan Ji and Jun Chenlan's swift and deadly attack was abruptly halted halfway through.
Both of them almost lost control, never expecting that they would actually go too far.
The guard glanced at the two of them and said, "What are you still standing there for? Go inside."
Quan Ji immediately pulled Jun Chenlan inside.
I knew it. There are bound to be many people who would forge identity tokens, but if they could get stuck at the first hurdle so easily, how could Akabane have sacrificed so much information to tell them?
...
After entering the city, the scene became even more bustling.
Compared to Xiangshi City, Xiangzhi City is more lively and harmonious. The streets are mostly filled with couples, walking hand in hand, and everyone has a smile on their face.
At first glance, it does look like a scene from a dream, but upon closer inspection, you'll discover something chilling: everyone's face only shows one expression.
That is laughter.
Aside from laughing, it seemed like he had no other emotions.
Once you realize this, the happiness and bliss before you begin to feel strange.
Quan Ji and Jun Chenlan exchanged a glance and laughed simultaneously.
Quan Ji usually only laughs mockingly.
Jun Chenlan rarely even smiles.
So, the two walked into the city with extremely stiff smiles.
Suddenly, the two spotted a familiar-looking couple. Quan Ji immediately exchanged a glance with Jun Chenlan: "Am I seeing things?"
Jun Chenlan understood what Quan Ji was talking about, and pursed her lips, saying, "I'm not mistaken, it's those two."
Then there was the woman in the cheongsam who had just arrived in the Heart Dream Empire and was punished and broken up with because she kept making a fuss about wanting a unicorn, and Han Laoqi, the president of the Mora Chamber of Commerce.
Quan Ji: "How come they're still together? And why are they in Xiangzhi City?"
Jun Chenlan shook his head: "I don't know, shall we follow them and see?"
Quan Ji nodded.
The two followed.
Xiangzhi City is much larger than Xiangshi City. When Quan Ji and her companion were following Han Laoqi and that woman, the other party probably realized they were being followed. They sped up and quickly changed positions, using countless serpentine maneuvers.
The more they do this, the more they reveal their insecurity.
So, at a corner, Quan Ji and Jun Chenlan took a different route, making them mistakenly believe that they had shaken them off.
Finally, they were panting in a corner.
"Finally, I've shaken them off. I really don't know who's following behind."
Han Laoqi sighed deeply; after being followed all afternoon, his obese body was clearly taking a toll.
The woman beside her trembled, afraid to move.
Han Laoqi glanced at her: "What... do you still want to escape? Once you enter Xiangzhi City, it won't be so easy to get out."
The woman seemed to be greatly frightened and immediately shrank back, saying, "No...no, you've misunderstood, husband."
Quan Ji and Jun Chenlan squatted on the roof watching this scene, finding it strange.
If they remembered correctly, this woman had always maintained an arrogant attitude in front of Han Laoqi before, so how come it seems to be the other way around now?
Han Laoqi pulled the woman's hand forcefully: "Let's go home."
The woman's face turned completely pale the moment she heard the word "go home".
"Wow...it's so early, shouldn't we continue our stroll?"
The moment Han Laoqi heard those words, his eyebrows immediately furrowed.
"Jiang Xinyi, are you a man or am I?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xinyi dared not say anything more and repeatedly said, "I'm...I'm sorry, let's go home, we'll be right back!"
Just as the two turned around, Quan Ji and Jun Chenlan jumped off the roof and used the Truth Script to create a barrier that shielded them from the outside world.
"Long time no see."
Quan Ji's cold voice is still unforgettable.
The two were startled when they saw who it was; they could clearly recognize the person in front of them.
Having been punished by Quan Ji, Jiang Xinyi instinctively wanted to rush to Quan Ji's side, her eyes seemingly pleading for help.
But before she could finish her action, Han Laoqi grabbed her back immediately. She didn't dare to utter a sound, and could only use her eyes to tell Quan Ji that she wasn't as good as she seemed.
Han Laoqi glanced at her, and she immediately shrank back, not daring to make any further hints. Then, she put on a smiling face and asked, "What brings you two here?"
Quan Ji took everything in, and the phrase "strange and bizarre" couldn't be more vividly described.
The current Han Laoqi is even more bizarre.
She's even harder to get a good attitude from than Jiang Xinyi before.
Whether it's the style of doing things or just relying on intuition.
Quan Ji said, "You don't need to know how we got in. We'll ask you a few questions. You can answer if you can, but we won't force you if you can't."
Han Laoqi's eyes dimmed slightly, but he still smiled: "Why don't you let Marshal Jun speak to me?"
Quan Ji frowned: "Why did you have to bring him?"
Han Laoqi said, "This... Marshal Jun is the real man. It's not appropriate for a woman to handle these important matters, is it?"
"What do you mean? What's wrong with the woman?"
Upon hearing this, Quan Ji sneered, and a terrifying aura suddenly erupted from her body.
In an instant, Han Laoqi was so overwhelmed by the pressure that he couldn't straighten his back and immediately knelt down before Quan Ji.
Kneeling before a woman made him feel incredibly humiliated!
This isn't anywhere else; this is the City of Mutual Understanding in the Heart Dream Empire!
He stared wide-eyed at Quan Ji: "Young Miss, don't forget the hierarchy!"
