My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 2038: Targeted

To avoid taking over a destroyed city that would be troublesome to rebuild later, they sought a more convenient place to fight a decisive battle.

Undoubtedly, they tacitly chose this area, which was not very prosperous and wouldn’t matter much if it were ruined.

Jun Yiyi wasn’t wrong in her guess, and soon enough, she heard a broadcast for this area coming from the warning speakers on every household’s wall.

The stern voice said: "There is currently ongoing warfare. To ensure the safety of the citizens, all residents of this nearby area must be evacuated. Therefore, residents of every household are required to gather at their doorsteps, and soldiers and vehicles will be dispatched to escort them away immediately!"

They requested that all residents inside their homes come out to the door immediately.

Jun Yiyi quickly went downstairs and solemnly warned all the servants not to say anything later; she would handle the soldiers. The servants nodded, as Madam Aisha had always been very kind to them, and naturally, they were willing to follow the wishes of the household.

Then Jun Yiyi pulled Madam Aisha upstairs and had the housekeeper bring them two sets of servant uniforms.

"What’s this for?" Madam Aisha was quite confused. Being able to leave this dangerous area made her glad, but Jun Yiyi’s cautious and vigilant expression made her feel uneasy.

"Put this on. When the soldiers come to question us later, we’ll pretend to be servants of this house. We absolutely cannot reveal our identities!" Jun Yiyi had seen from the surveillance that the uniform worn by those soldiers was from the Councilman Faction, so she had to act cautiously.

Madam Aisha suddenly understood a bit, her lips turning pale: "Yiyi, are they from the Councilman Faction? What shall we do if they discover our identities? Did your father and the others lose? If the Queen loses, what will become of us family members?"

Jun Yiyi reassured her: "Mom, don’t overthink it. The punishment of family extermination is something from ancient times. Even if the Queen truly loses, we won’t be killed. After all, the Councilman Faction doesn’t want to be seen by the public as killing innocents recklessly. Even if they put on a show, they won’t harm us."

Though she comforted her this way, Jun Yiyi was well aware that if the Queen lost, even if the families of her followers weren’t harmed, life afterward would still be difficult.

The two changed clothes and went downstairs, walking out together with the family’s servants to the door.

Two soldiers stood at the villa’s entrance, in their straight and solemn military uniforms. Their faces appeared cold and sharp in the night. One was responsible for counting and recording the number of people, and the other was the driver!

"Just you 12 servants? Where is the master of this house?" The soldier counting numbers lifted his military hat and scanned all of them with a sharp gaze.

Jun Yiyi, putting on a slightly fearful expression, spoke up: "The master of the house already left a long time ago. We have no idea where they went."

The soldier gave her a look, seeing she was dressed ordinarily, with an expression no different from those panicked servants, said nothing further, only muttering that the name of the villa-level master seemed to be the family of Governor Yun, thinking he could score some merit by catching them. Who knew they would escape so quickly?

But he didn’t doubt too much, as Governor Yun was a favorite minister of the Queen, and his family most likely would have left the city early.

Jun Yiyi was shocked upon hearing this; indeed, they were targeted, and these people harbored ill intentions regarding the value of their identity.

The other soldier driving was already impatiently urging them to get in the car.

Jun Yiyi, pulling Madam Aisha, the two were about to follow the servants into the vehicle when suddenly a vehicle from the next community drove by. A familiar face on the vehicle suddenly pointed at them, screaming: "Don’t be fooled by them, these two are Governor Yun’s wife and daughter; they’re spies."
