Chapter 383: The Picking Party

Translator: AlfredoPoutineSoup  Editor: DesTheSloth

“Cool Wind blows, Autumn Moon hangs…balabala.”

Such poem came from the TV on the top floor. Wang Yuechuan stood on the rooftop.

Wang Yuechuan frame was the slim type. After wearing a female’s clothing, he looked enchanting and quite similar to a real girl.

He was taller than the targeted high school girl… but it didn’t matter, because he… ‘she’ was now sitting on the rooftop.

With legs hanging in midair.

“Where are you, Zhao Ru…”

Wang Yuechuan was not afraid of heights. His sight was like a falcon, staring at every tiny figure on the street.

“And…” Wang Yuechuan squinted eyes, “Cao Yu, I know you will come.”

At 8:31 p.m.

Zhao Ru, with her head hung down, got off the bus… It was rush hour, nobody would notice a woman walking with her head lowered.

Her destination was the next street. She could even see the sign on the rooftop.

Zhao Ru carefully looked around, and then sneakily slipped into an alley, getting close to her target.

She was convinced that nobody discovered her… She only believed in her eyes now, rather than the words of anyone else.

But she didn’t know there were some things she couldn’t see—such as Black Soul Envoys.

About 1 meter behind her, Black Soul No.18 was following her.

Black Soul No. 18 was waiting for the harvest.

Human beings tend to ignore their real intention even if they understood their heart— but a Black Soul Envoy knew more about human nature than the human’s themselves.

Especially those who had similar dreams to her.

Yet, Black Soul No.18 stopped at that moment.

She said indifferently, “Tut, you haven’t had enough last time. And you came to court death? Dabbling magician.”

She was following Zhao Ru but someone was approaching her… It was that dabbling magician with glasses.

Cao Yu.

“You merely broke my mirror image spell. Don’t be so happy.”

“Really?”

Black Soul No.18 said while turning around. Before she turned, she flicked her finger and a lump of black light went into Zhao Ru’s clothes.

Black Soul No.18 actions were totally concealed though Cao Yu was observing every action of hers.

He was not relaxed like what he said.

He merely said some words to provoke her, attempting to make her lose her composure and revealed more openings. Of course Cao Yu didn’t expect that but he wanted to have a try.

“Looks you’re prepared this time before coming… tut…”

Cao Yu smiled faintly, “I should be careful.”

Black Soul No.18 said, “Oh, really? Then let me guess… you came here with your true body, right?”

Cao Yu replied indifferently, “You’re the first one that could break my 4-star barrier. Besides that, the mirror image spell failed… I have to use a different strategy to deal with you.”

Black Soul No.18 gave out a gruesome laughter like knife scratching on glass, “But it doesn’t seem to be safe if you revealed your true body.”

Cao Yu adjusted his glasses, and nodded, “You’re right, but you ignored something.”

“Oh? I’d like to listen to your opinion.”

From the start, Cao Yu had placed his hands behind him. At the moment, both his palms were pressed together; yet, his face didn’t change, “You ignored the fact that this woman is a good carrier for my materials to be nurtured. I know her better than other people and I know clearly about her mode of operating.”

Black Soul No. 18 couldn’t help sneering.

Cao Yu wasn’t angry; he added, “Since I know her intention and her mode of operating… I’ll definitely know which way she will choose. For example, here.”

Black Soul No.18 looked around the alley at this instant!

At the same time, Cao Yu opened both his hands, while squatting and pressing them on the ground!

Then, a big blue circle and a small one showed beneath Black Soul No.18’s! And six dim light spots appeared on both sides of the alley walls.

There were 12 spots in total!

All of them were rapidly rotating… black crystals! They seemed to be hidden in the wall earlier! Now they formed a regular icosahedron!

And Black Soul No.18 appeared in the middle of it!

“You laid an ambush!”

That was a scream with anger. But Cao Yu didn’t care; rather, he took a deep breath, and magic power poured out frantically!

A second later, he heaved a sigh and stood up. The regular icosahedron had shrunken and turned into a fist-size one, which was floating toward Cao Yu’s palm.

Cao Yu seemed a bit wobbly on his feet as he collected the 12 sided icosahedron. He lay against the wall, as if he desperately needing a rest.

He lowered his head and looked at the black shadow in it, then sneered, “I prepared it for three days. How is it compared to a top magician?”

The black shadow didn’t answer him, merely falling silent.

Cao Yu said coolly, “Don’t worry, we have a lot of time to play… but now, I’m going to pick up the ripe fruit.”

Cao Yu walked out of the alley quickly.

At 8:37 p.m.

…

…

At 8:50 p.m.

Lin Feng peeped through the door gap and found the high school girl was still staying by the policewoman quietly, without speaking.

He then checked his watch… it was 10 minutes to 9.

But right then, Officer Ma raised his arm, and told all members through interphone, “Everyone, attention! The target has appeared! Repeat, the target has appeared! Prepare to arrest her… Dragon, who is the guy that went past you?”

Officer Ma asked.

The hiding policeman, Dragon, looked around, but he just saw the silhouette of a back, “I don’t know, it may be a passer-by.”

“Passer-by?” Ma Houde frowned. He looked through a telescope, but could only see a lowered head, rather than the face.

The man was walking ahead of Zhao Ru… unless something unexpected occured, he would encounter Zhao Ru soon.

A strange prediction rose up to Ma Houde’s head but he didn’t know what it meant.

An innocent passer-by, or…

And just at that moment, a guy from another ambush point said, “Officer Ma, the target will enter the effective capturing range! 10 meters!”

How long would it take a person to move 10 meters, based on the normal walking speed?

However, at the moment, Zhao Ru stopped.
