Chapter 703 Backing Me Up! Norton: Are you talking about me? [2 Updates]
"Traffic in this area has been completely paralyzed!"
By the end of the 20th century, air travel was already widespread in the world's cities.
Over the past two decades, with the emergence of more and more new modes of transportation, residents have become more inclined to buy vehicles that can fly.
Traffic accidents are indeed very likely to occur on elevated transportation tracks.
Therefore, vehicles traveling at any time are subject to strict control by the traffic authorities.
But this is the first time an explosion has occurred.
With technology advanced to this level, even miniature compressed bombs produced by the Academy of Engineering cannot escape detection by instruments.
Moreover, with air traffic paralyzed, ground transportation must also be affected.
Su Wen's expression changed drastically: "When did this happen?!"
The car Sinai drives is listed online for a billion dollars.
Moreover, it's a limited edition, requiring a lottery system to obtain.
Those who can buy it are either rich or noble, and all hold a certain status in the world's cities.
"Prepare the vehicle immediately! The escort team is on its way!" Su Wen abruptly stood up. "Follow me to the rescue at once!"
"Madam!" Upon hearing Suwen's words, the steward immediately became anxious and hurriedly stopped her, "Madam, you have only just woken up, and we don't yet know if there will be any adverse aftereffects on your body."
"The explosion has already occurred, and there's no guarantee the attackers aren't still lurking in the shadows. Madam, your safety is also in danger!"
Suwen had already walked out.
She felt very uneasy.
She couldn't quite put her finger on what this unease was.
As soon as Suwen gave the order, the most elite guards of the Leinger family also went out.
Mo Qian watched the woman's departing figure and breathed a sigh of relief.
He collapsed to the ground, suddenly realizing that his back was soaked with cold sweat.
The Third Madam's cold body was right beside him.
Mo Qian wiped the sweat from his brow.
From today onwards, he must act with extreme caution.
**
"Beep beep beep—"
The air was filled with the sound of horns.
[Alert! Alert!]
[There is an emergency ahead. All vehicles are advised to take an alternate route!]
[A second alert: Residents of the Eastern District are advised to avoid going out tonight unless absolutely necessary.]
This sudden explosion affected many people.
Bi'er was among them.
She adjusted her sunglasses and asked the driver, clearly displeased, "What's going on?"
The driver's hand trembled slightly: "Miss Bi'er, news came from the main family that the car that the Fifth Miss and the Divine Doctor were in exploded, and the First Madam personally went to the rescue."
Bi'er frowned: "Is he dead?"
The driver hesitated for a moment: "Even a Grail Knight wouldn't survive an explosion of that magnitude, right?"
They were far away, but they were all affected by the aftershocks of the explosion.
Could people at the epicenter of the explosion still survive?
"Oh." Bier put her sunglasses back on. "So annoying, back to the research institute."
The driver immediately turned around and left.
And ahead.
A cloud of black smoke billowed out, and dozens of vehicles were charred.
One of the cars made a loud "bang".
Ying Zijing kicked open the car door, her expression cold.
She held a toddler girl in one arm and a phone in the other, her voice softening as she asked, "Sir?"
"Yaoyao," Fu Yunshen's voice was icy, "Where is she?"
Ying Zijing gave her coordinates and then placed the baby girl in a safe place.
He then pressed a button in the baby girl's swaddling clothes.
This button can notify the baby girl's parents.
Ying Zijing thought for a moment and placed a piece of jade in the baby girl's hand.
Since we've met, it must be fate.
This jade stone can at least protect the baby girl from one disaster.
After doing all this, Ying Zijing got up and quickly headed to the coordinates.
Fu Yunshen has arrived.
His gaze darkened as he took the girl's hand and carefully examined the wounds on her body.
Apart from some abrasions on my arm, I have no other injuries.
"I'm fine." Ying Zijin yawned. "A bomb of this size can't hurt me anymore, but it did use up a lot of my internal energy."
She said calmly, "Brother, you're making a fuss over nothing."
Fortunately, there were no casualties this time.
She finally managed to save everyone else.
Fu Yunshen ruffled her hair and smiled helplessly: "You are my worry. If I don't worry about you, who will I worry about?"
“It’s that kind of bomb again.” He turned around, his eyes darkening. “No wonder the instruments didn’t detect it. Luckily, we were prepared.”
Bombs made from alchemical drugs do not conform to any technological principles.
Fu Yunshen held her waist, and the two glided down from the air.
"Hmm." Ying Zijing glanced at the direction where the black smoke was billowing. "Let's go first."
As she spoke, her gaze paused again, and she sighed softly, "Ten billion."
It was just blown up like that.
"Little money-grubber." Fu Yunshen pinched her cheek and chuckled softly, "We can still earn money. If you like a car, I'll buy you another one when we get back."
Ying Zijin raised an eyebrow: "Well, you earn money to support the family, and you're also responsible for being beautiful."
The phone rang at that moment.
The rapid "beep beep beep" sound came from Suwen.
Ying Zijin hesitated for a moment before replying.
[Auntie, this identity of mine is dead. We can meet at the research institute tomorrow morning. Miss Sinai is alright too.]
With Suwen's intelligence, she understood immediately.
It turns out the little miracle doctor was disguised.
After confirming that Ying Zijing was alright, Suwen breathed a sigh of relief, her heart finally at ease.
[Little miracle doctor, see you tomorrow. I'll make you some snacks. Don't drink the nutritional supplements; they don't taste good at all.]
[Ying Zijin]: Okay, thank you, Auntie.
Suwen calmly put the phone back without saying a word, and continued searching for people with the rescue team.
**
On the other side.
Sinai was rescued by Ying Zijin, and the skateboard carried her all the way to a secluded place.
She looked up and realized she had arrived near the Sage's Courtyard.
So she took out the antidote that Ying Zijin had prepared for her and ate one, and she returned to her adult body.
This makes movement convenient.
Sinai was preparing to leave.
Just then, hurried footsteps sounded, accompanied by the knights' shouts.
"Someone is trying to assassinate the Magician!"
"Arrest them immediately!"
"Report! The assassin is wearing a white shirt and skinny jeans, is 172cm tall, an adult female, with long platinum blonde hair, and measurements of 88-60-85."
"Whoever sees this, shoot them dead immediately, no need to arrest them!"
Sinai had just finished tidying her clothes when her expression changed slightly.
These data points perfectly match every aspect of her.
This was a premeditated design.
The status of the sage is too high.
Attacking a sage, even someone of Lu Yuan's caliber, would result in immediate execution.
The sage has protected the World City for centuries, and the inhabitants of the World City have unconditionally trusted the sage.
Sinai turned and ran.
She has spent her entire life in research institutes conducting experiments, so her physical fitness is not particularly good.
Using her advanced technology, Sinai repeatedly evaded the knights' pursuit.
She stopped in her tracks after entering a passageway.
Oh no.
This is a passageway with no exit.
Sinai looked up.
Various drones hovered overhead, flying back and forth.
She will be caught immediately once she flies away in her aircraft.
Sinai's eyes were calm as she searched for a way to escape.
Just then, a hand suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Immediately afterwards, a strong force came and she was pinned against the wall.
Sinai tensed instantly, her hand already touching the laser gun.
But the immense force held her still, completely pinning her down.
The space was cramped and narrow, and the temperature gradually rose.
Her head was completely covered by the man's hand, and her vision was completely black.
From her angle, she couldn't see much, only the man's collarbone beneath his shirt.
It rose and fell slightly with each breath.
"Da da da—"
The footsteps beside me grew louder and louder.
"Over here! Quick, right here!"
Sinai's voice was slightly cold: "They're arresting me. Please let me go, otherwise it will implicate you. Thank you for your kindness."
The man did not speak.
"clatter!"
The footsteps stopped at that moment.
Leading the group is the current commander of the Holy Grail Knights.
Sinai's heart also tightened.
"Who goes there?" The leader of the Holy Grail Knights narrowed his eyes, his gaze sharp.
The passageway was dark, but that did not impede his clear vision.
The Holy Grail Knight commander keenly spotted a glimpse of white gold.
And the one pressed against the wall was indeed a woman.
Although it's unclear whether they were assassins, it's better to kill ten thousand innocent people than to let one guilty person go free.
"Listen carefully, release the woman in your hands, or you too will be arrested for assassinating the sage!"
The man slowly turned his head.
Amidst the flames, the leader of the Grail Knights saw his face.
That head of fine, wispy silver hair stood out even more in the dark passageway.
Two reflective black earrings made the man's face appear even whiter.
He finally looked up, still holding Sinai firmly in his hands to prevent her from moving, and not letting her see his face.
Norton smiled, his voice light and casual: "You...you're talking about me?"
