Chapter 165: Chapter 165: No Clue

At night, Jiang Qin and Shi Lichuan were both lying flat on the bed.

Their hands were clasped tightly together under the blanket.

But that was as far as it went.

Shi Lichuan was a rather shy person. He seemed too embarrassed to make any more intimate moves.

So they just lay there quietly, not speaking, feeling that this silence was enough.

Well, that was what Shi Lichuan was thinking five minutes ago.

Five minutes later, a proactive kiss from Jiang Qin shattered all his reason.

...

Downstairs, Lan Yuyan, a lone cat keeping watch on the first floor, was so worried his fur had lost its luster.

His tail twitched irritably over the edge of the sofa.

’Sigh... At this rate, who knows when I’ll be able to return to my human form.’

Depressed and worried about his Riot Value rising, he immediately opened his Light Computer and played one of Jiang Qin’s songs to calm himself.

Just as his mind became serene, he suddenly heard a faint noise.

Yun Xie’s door was already open. A deep purple Flood Dra slithered out like a phantom.

His voice was ethereal. "There’s a fight outside. I’m worried they’re trying to lure the tiger from the mountain. Go take a look."

"Okay." The blue figure vanished in a flash.

In the blink of an eye, Lan Yuyan was on the roof, crouched in the shadows, observing the battle below.

The intruders were three males, all of them S-level.

With three S-level Bounty Hunters, including Jiao Yankun, and others providing support, they were more than enough to handle the situation.

But he didn’t believe that only three people had come this time.

’There must be others hidden in the dark.’

After all, they had four S-level males on their side in plain sight. How could the enemy possibly think three men would be enough to succeed?

Therefore, these three must have been just scouts.

The commotion outside was so loud that Jiang Qin and Shi Lichuan naturally couldn’t continue.

Dressed, they walked out of the room and saw Yun Xie leaning against the doorframe.

"Why are you out here? Go back and rest. It’s not good for a young female to stay up late.

Dull Bear, you go inside and watch over her."

Jiang Qin shook her head. "I can’t sleep. I feel uneasy."

"What are you worrying so much for? We’re here.

Don’t worry, we absolutely won’t let those filthy things get near you this time."

Shi Lichuan’s expression was also resolute. "This time, I’ll hold you in my arms. Even if the entire house turns to sand, they won’t be able to take you from me."

He had been careless before. Because they had always kept their distance, he hadn’t chosen such an intimate method of protection.

Now that their relationship had changed, besides being more dedicated, his actions could also be a bit more unrestrained.

Despite their assurances, Jiang Qin still felt she couldn’t calm down.

She ended up just sitting in the living room, taking out a calligraphy set to practice her writing.

It was a gift sent to her by You Wei.

In the Interstellar age, buying plain paper wasn’t difficult, but items like calligraphy brushes, ink sticks, and inkstones had to be custom-made.

She had been thinking about commissioning a set herself.

She never expected You Wei to send her a treasured collection.

According to him, he had acquired it on a small planet.

He didn’t know how to do calligraphy himself, and few people around him did either.

But he guessed Jiang Qin would like it.

After all, Jiang Qin’s knowledge of ancient culture was profound. If she didn’t love it, who would have the patience to study such things?

So, he sent basically everything he had acquired to Jiang Qin.

「Half an hour later.」

A knock sounded at the villa’s door. Shi Lichuan went to open it and returned with Bai Mufeng.

It had been a while. His white hair was as striking as ever, his features still handsome. His Combat Suit was stained with blood, giving him a battle-worn look.

After entering, he got straight to the point. "The ones we caught today are all citizens of Central City.

Their Levels aren’t very high, and their crimes aren’t serious. After all, they were only interfering with the Law Enforcement Team’s duties.

Among them were quite a few Half-beastmen, both male and female. They’re easily bought off for money."

Those people just kept calling the emergency line to distract the Law Enforcement Team and block various intersections.

This tactic had indeed succeeded in frustrating the Law Enforcement Team, and even after arresting them, they couldn’t be detained for long according to regulations.

"You all need to be careful lately. We in the Law Enforcement Team can’t figure out their intentions.

So I wanted to come and ask if you have any leads on your end."

’And to see her...’

Bai Mufeng’s gaze casually swept over Jiang Qin. Seeing her rosy complexion and skin so fair it seemed to glow, he looked away.

He then looked at the two males in the room and the small blue cat on the windowsill.

’Two S-level males and one SS-level male?’

He was somewhat surprised.

It wasn’t that he looked down on Jiang Qin. After all, anyone who paid attention to her could feel her talent and charm.

’Even I... if I had the chance to become her partner, I probably wouldn’t refuse.’

’Rather than forcing myself to just get by, it would be better to live this short life to the fullest.’

Everyone has a different definition of living. He just happened to be the type of person who didn’t have much desire for power or money.

But these thoughts only lasted for a moment.

He was just a little startled, but he didn’t think Jiang Qin was undeserving. So, with just a single thought, he could understand the feelings of the males in the room.

Yun Xie leaned against the sofa and said lazily, "We don’t have a clue, and no leads either, because no one broke in.

Cat, you were on watch outside for so long. Did you find anything?"

Hiding on the windowsill, Lan Yuyan shook his cat head. "No. Those three males... it was as if they really just came here to die for nothing."

Of course, he was just saying that.

As law-abiding citizens, they hadn’t actually killed anyone in either of the two attacks.

Accidentally killing one or two might be excusable, but if they killed everyone, it would be hard to explain to the Law Enforcement Team.

So, for the most part, they just maimed them and handed them over to the Law Enforcement Team for interrogation.

Everyone fell silent.

The Star Thieves weren’t fools. There was no reason for them to send three S-level Beastman males to throw their lives away like eggs against a rock. They must have some kind of motive.

Since they couldn’t guess the motive, Bai Mufeng didn’t stay any longer. He only warned, "Be extra careful lately. You all need to be cautious.

If anything feels wrong, Miss Jiang, you can also call my private number."

Hearing this, both Yun Xie and Lan Yuyan scrutinized him with their eyes.

Bai Mufeng didn’t seem to mind. After giving his warning, he left.

After he was gone, Yun Xie asked bluntly, "Qinqin, does this Mr. Bai want to become one of our brothers?"

"Huh?" Jiang Qin was stunned. "Do you know each other?" 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Seeing she didn’t understand, Yun Xie raised an eyebrow. "We don’t know him, but why do I get the feeling he has ideas about you?"

"I don’t think so. Mr. Bai and I have barely been in contact. You must be overthinking it."

Every time they spoke, it was only for a few short sentences.

And they only contacted each other when there was business to discuss.

At most, they were friends. After all, they would occasionally check in on each other, or if there was news on the Star Network, they would exchange greetings or congratulations.

That was all there was to it.

Hearing her say that, Yun Xie didn’t press the matter, but a sense of vigilance had already taken root in his mind.
