On the way to school, I met up with the five girls - Feng Mian, Yu An Xue, Yu An Yan, Qing Yue, and Obsidia. I acted as if nothing was wrong, and engaged in idle chatter with them as usual. However, when we reached a newspaper stand, I stopped and took one. Fortunately, they were free of charge.
"Oh? When did you start reading newspapers, Big Brother Xuan Kai?" Qing Yue asked, trying to get a glimpse of what was written curiously.
"Eh...I just kinda, uh, felt like reading one today," I replied nervously.
I then flipped open the paper, and immediately noticed the huge headline.
Xuan Family Massacred by Unknown Organization Overnight.
I couldn't help but smirk. They thought I was some organization? Hm...I guess it's understandable, nobody would expect two people alone to be able to annihilate one of the Four Great Families of Shenzhen, huh?
Heya guys! Cyclxne here.
The whole issue about the girls nagging Xuan Kai for not telling them anything has been officially resolved in this chapter, and both parties are satisfied with the agreement, so all's well that ends well.
I gave a little bit of foreshadowing at the end there...and I'm sure all of you know what that impending catastrophe is. Although Plague has been killed, the rest of the Midnight Syndicate is still out there - and they will stop at nothing in order to eradicate this city.
Look forward to the climax of this arc/volume.
Anyway, that's all from me for now!
And as always, I'll see you guys in the next chapter~
