"Hehe, it really is you, little girl! What brings you to be a student?" Li Jia said with a smile after confirming the beautiful girl's identity.
"Master, you're really not dead? I knew only you could recognize me at a glance, no one else could!" The girl came up to Li Jia and looked her over carefully, then tilted her head and said playfully.
"Hehe, I didn't expect to see you again so soon after I met Xiao Hei. I wonder if the other two guys will suddenly appear in front of me too. Tell me, what are you doing here?" Li Jia turned and walked out of the banquet hall, and the girl followed her out. On the open-air balcony outside the hotel, Li Jia asked the girl the purpose of her visit.
"What other purpose could it be? To kill, of course, that devilish teacher Ricard." The girl's face remained expressionless as she spoke of killing, as if it were a perfectly normal thing. Li Jia frowned slightly after hearing the girl's words. "Why?"
"A school teacher shouldn't be the target of my precious apprentice, unless the teacher has other identities!" Li Jia wondered to herself after asking the question.
"He's the head of a family in the Italian Mafia, controlling most of the channels for human trafficking in Italy. Another family wants to kill him and seize the channels he controls, so his name has become the number one mission in the training camp. Plus, I'm really broke right now, so I just came to join in the fun!" After the girl finished speaking, she looked at the night in the distance and a strange smile appeared on her face.
The ever-changing enchantress, ranked seventh on Interpol's most wanted list, is worth fifteen million US dollars.
She was Li Jia's youngest apprentice. A native of Rome, Italy, her greatest skill was disguise; to this day, the police have no information about her true appearance. Li Feng was able to recognize her because Li Jia knew a small secret about her eyes, allowing him to immediately identify her upon seeing her.
Angel is her name. Standing next to Li Jia, she looks only fifteen or sixteen years old, but her actual age is not that. The reason she is called "Hundred Transformations" is because of her superb disguise skills.
"A black hand? Heh. That makes sense. Those guys are practically everywhere in Italy, in every industry. It's not surprising that there's a leader who's a teacher!" Li Jia murmured to herself, gazing at the star-studded night sky.
"That guy is the one who initiated this exchange meeting. I wonder what he's up to this time, but anyway, he doesn't have many days left to live, so I'm too lazy to find out." Angel's words made Li Jia think. So far, there seemed to be nothing unusual about this exchange meeting, and today was the last activity of the entire meeting. After tonight, the students and teachers would leave here tomorrow and return to their own countries, to the schools where they studied and worked.
"Master, let's go, let's enjoy this last bit of madness!" Angel didn't ask Li Jia why she came here. She didn't want to ask and wouldn't ask, because Li Jia was the master she admired most, and she would unconditionally support whatever her master did.
"Alright, but I'm afraid your mission this time is going to fail." Li Jia turned to Angel and said, "Master, is there anything you need me to do?"
Angel understood Li Jia's meaning. Without the slightest hesitation, she immediately asked.
"Continue being my student," Li Jia said, observing Angel's reaction. "Yes, Master!"
"However, it's worth enjoying this last bit of madness. Let's go, let's go dancing with Master!" Li Jia smiled slightly, then stretched out her arm. Angel took Li Jia's outstretched arm with utmost innocence, and the two of them left the viewing balcony and arrived at the dance venue where it was about to begin.
The 400-seat hall was filled with upbeat music to warm up the crowd. Students and teachers were already in the huge space, almost everyone holding a glass of wine, swaying slightly to the music. The ball hadn't officially started yet; this was just a warm-up. Before the ball began, a representative of the event organizers would give a speech, after which the real ball would begin.
Sure enough, less than two minutes after Li Jia and Angel entered the ball and cocktail party, the loud music suddenly stopped, and in the middle of the ballroom, a tall Italian man stood there holding a microphone!
"He's that ghost Wells, the dean of studies at Ricard High School, and one of the core leaders of the Charles family." As Wells spoke with deep emotion, Angel whispered in Li Jia's ear, introducing his identity.
"Alright! Relax and enjoy this wild night!" Wells said, then turned and left the hall, and the ball officially began!
"Come on, dance with your master!" The first song was a waltz. Li Jia's eyes had already found her little sister Emily in the brightly lit dance hall. Now, she was no longer surrounded by the big man, but by several boys. They looked like Japanese students. Chinese boys weren't this crazy and outgoing. Just look at the handsome boy on the other side who was surrounded by several Italian and Japanese girls.
After the dance ended, Angel chose to rest. As Li Jia invited Jessica over, several rather handsome young men walked up to her…
There weren't many people dancing at the beginning of the dance, but after two songs, some upbeat music started playing. Whether you can dance or not doesn't matter; what matters is moving your body to the music. Here, there's no homework, no exams, and no teachers supervising you! There's only music, food, and a constant flow of people.
