Chapter 103: Terrifying Lord of Eternal Night

"...Walker of Eternal Night, I greet you!"

The words spoken by the old woman left Xie You stunned for a moment.

She quickly asked respectfully, "Lord of Eternal Night, I greet you!"

The old woman continued mechanically, "I have made all the arrangements. Within two days, you can escape from the prison."

Xie You was stunned again.

So fast?!

Could it be that this Lord intends to break me out of prison?

This thought filled her with deep worry.

The voice of the old woman carried a hint of vagueness, "Once you leave the prison, I will contact you again. Be patient and wait."

Xie You immediately understood that the Walker of Eternal Night was about to leave.

A thought suddenly popped into her mind, and she quickly shouted, "Wait, Lord, please wait."

The old woman's gaze turned towards her.

Xie You gritted her teeth and spoke with hatred in her tone, "Lord, could you kill this old woman for me?"

She suddenly opened her clothes, revealing a large expanse of white scenery, "As a price, I am willing to give everything to you. You can freely enjoy my..."

The voice of the old woman remained mechanical, "Madam, do you want to use this method to test my gender and personality, and then formulate corresponding countermeasures?"

Xie You's heart skipped a beat.

She saw through it!

Is this an extraordinary secret technique of mind reading, or just a pure guess?

If it's the former, it means the Walker of Eternal Night can freely use mind reading, making the other party even more terrifying than she had anticipated.

***

Shanyi Lane.

The images transmitted through the secret puppet made Cheng Han's heart beat faster.

He couldn't help but mutter, "I just wanted to dig deeper into the hidden rat, why do these overly stimulating scenes keep appearing?"

The black cat beside him tilted its head in confusion.

It's just a puppet, why does the owner find it stimulating?

How strange!

Cheng Han rubbed his nose, "Can't you pull up your clothes? It's really unbearable!"

He had to admit that this scale was much more spectacular than that of a little girl.

It truly lived up to the name "ravishing beauty."

But he knew even better that this woman was not an easy opponent.

Every time that middle-aged official came looking for her, he was secretly controlled by the ravishing beauty with hallucinogenic drugs. He never succeeded once and was played around from beginning to end.

Beauty was her weapon.

Cheng Han composed himself and continued to play the role of the ghostly figure, "I have seen too many flies and dogs. Do I need to use secret techniques for your petty tricks?"

Xie You's voice, using the puppet as a springboard, directly resounded in his mind, "Lord of Eternal Night, I am a powerless weak woman. I just want to stay alive."

In the image, she still had her chest exposed.

Cheng Han muttered softly, "I have a feeling that she has already guessed my gender and will definitely use her body as a tool in the future."

He shook his head, "A woman's intuition is too terrifying!"

Xie You's voice carried a hint of indignation, "If I didn't have a little bit of scheming, I wouldn't have survived until now. When I was ten years old, my stepfather tried to..."

Cheng Han's face turned cold, "Alright, I'm not interested in these boring tragic stories!"

He swiftly disconnected the link.

He has deduced the life of this woman, whose stepfather couldn't even find her ashes.

The businessman who previously supported her was actually her carefully chosen prey, because the other party had a hidden illness and couldn't really do anything.

In other words, this seductive woman is quite cunning and has always protected herself very well.

Cheng Han picked up another puppet: "Another scene can be performed."

In Qinglin City, the Inspection Office and the Arbitration Office are the two core components of the judicial system.

Simply put, the former is responsible for apprehending people, while the latter is responsible for making judgments.

At this moment.

Inside an office of the Arbitration Office.

Senior arbitrator 'Zou De' squinted at the perfect curve behind his assistant, and involuntarily felt a ripple in his heart.

He quickly glanced around and found that no one noticed, so he quickly took a photo.

As usual, it felt exceptionally good.

The assistant was startled and suddenly turned around, accidentally knocking over two stacks of documents with her right hand.

"Clatter!"

The documents fell all over the floor.

The assistant gritted her teeth: "Zou De, you bastard, is this a place to fool around?"

Zou De quickly apologized: "I'm sorry!"

The assistant squatted down and began to pick up the documents.

No one noticed the faint blue glow in her eyes.

After a short while.

The documents were neatly organized.

The assistant urged: "Hurry up and sign, I still have to take them to the 'Document Compilation Department'."

Zou De didn't want to provoke her, so he could only obediently do his work.

When he signed a document, he paused: "Is this one in the wrong place?"

A few days ago, Zou De received a message that someone had taken a liking to the female prisoner named "Xie You", and even gave him a bribe.

The other party also stated that everything was taken care of, and he just needed to follow the procedures and not interfere.

This was almost a risk-free matter, so he naturally complied.

The assistant stood with her hands on her hips and questioned: "I've been doing document work for several years, how could I make a mistake?"

She carefully looked at it again and confidently said: "There's absolutely no mistake."

A hint of blue flashed in her eyes, and her voice faintly carried a strange meaning.

For some reason, Zou De suddenly felt that her words were completely correct, so he nodded: "Alright, I'll sign it then."

He made a big stroke and wrote his name.

The assistant took the documents and hurriedly left.

Zou De scratched his chin and muttered in confusion: "I seem to have forgotten something..."

Document Compilation Department.

Similar things were happening.

A senior staff member expressed doubt: "Was this document signed incorrectly?"

The assistant became a little impatient: "Zou De and I both confirmed it together, how could there be a problem?"

The senior staff member's gaze became confused for a moment, and he nodded: "Alright, I must have read it wrong."

Not long after.

The compiled documents were sent to the office of the Chief Arbitrator.

Two hours later.

The document has completed all procedures and has been officially issued in the name of the Arbitration Office.

Thus.

It is no longer just a simple document, but an official document with legal effectiveness.

In the afternoon.

The document was distributed to various departments in Qinglin City.

At this moment.

Zou Deru woke up from his dream, "Wasn't Xie You supposed to be transferred to another place for detention? How did it become a release order?"

He remembered the background of the client and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

It's over!

This will definitely offend the other party.

*

At four o'clock in the afternoon.

The old woman appeared in front of the prison cell, her face showing obvious surprise, but her words still carried a condescending mockery.

"It's really unexpected. I didn't expect you to have connections with the Arbitration Office. It seems that your network is wider than I imagined."

The word "connections" deliberately emphasized the tone, implying that one is willing to do anything for personal gain.

Xie You's heart trembled.

Connections with the Arbitration Office?

She had always thought that the Nightwalker would use violence, but she didn't expect this method.

The old woman waved her hand, "You are free!"

She seemed very disgusted with seeing Xie You's face and quickly turned and left.

Soon.

Xie You saw the sky again.

When she was detained before, she was only wearing a thin coat. When she left the prison, no one gave her clothes. The cold wind blew, and she shivered from the cold.

Despite the extreme cold, there was a faint smile on Xie You's lips.

"Lord Night, I have roughly guessed your hiding range because your actions revealed a trace."

"The various cumbersome procedures of the Arbitration Office cannot be understood in a short day by an ordinary person. Even if one masters puppetry, it is impossible to quickly navigate through the process."

"I originally thought you were hiding among ordinary people, but now it seems that you are most likely an official member and have been working for a while."

"You said before that you have 'seen too many sycophants and opportunists,' which indicates that you are definitely not young, and with your abilities, you must have a certain status..."

Xie You smiled cunningly like a fox, "As long as I find more clues, I will definitely find a way to catch you!"

*

Shanyi Lane.

Cheng Han completed a deduction and saw the scene of "Xie You being frozen like a dog."

He had a deeper understanding of the application skills of the Dark Spirit Puppetry: "By manipulating key points, troublesome matters can be easily resolved without attracting official attention, making it safer."

Out of curiosity.

Cheng Han secretly probed Xie You's mind.

The result made him unable to help but laugh, "Work experience is not short? And has a certain status? Your logical thinking ability is not bad, but unfortunately, it's all wrong."

In the face of external forces, does work experience matter? Does status matter?

It's meaningless!

No matter how cumbersome the procedures of the Arbitration Office are, as long as a deduction is made, the most crucial thread can be accurately found without the need to study the process.

Cheng Han looked at the black cat and ordered, "Chief, bring the squirrel puppet over."

The black cat quickly brought over a puppet.

This puppet corresponds to a pitiful white-bellied squirrel, which was originally in comfortable hibernation but was forcibly dug out of its hole by the black cat.

Cheng Han took the puppet and smiled, "Madam, later I will show you a good show and relieve your worries at the same time."

At this moment,

Xie You stood by the road, bewildered and unsure where to go.

Her family was no longer around, the business association she relied on had been swallowed up, her benefactor was imprisoned, and her so-called "friends" from before would surely treat her like a snake or scorpion.

At this moment,

A strange sound interrupted her thoughts.

"Squeak! Squeak!"

Xie You looked towards the sound and saw a white-bellied squirrel standing above a evergreen tree branch.

In the past, she wouldn't have paid it any attention.

But now, having personally experienced the methods of Lord Yongye, she would not ignore it.

The two sides locked eyes for a moment.

The squirrel suddenly jumped over and landed from the tree branch.

Xie You instinctively reached out and caught the squirrel.

"Squeak!"

The squirrel spat out a ball of paper.

Xie You unfolded the paper and was immediately stunned.

Written on it was a line of crooked words - "I am the contact."

Indeed, it was Lord Yongye!

In the next instant,

She exclaimed in surprise, "Ah~"

Because the paper suddenly turned into ashes.

Without any flames.

Just like that, it suddenly turned into ashes.

"Squeak!"

The squirrel spat out another ball of paper.

Xie You unfolded it and found it to be a simple map, with a line of words next to it: The show starts in one hour.

Half an hour later,

Xie You first took money from a hidden small vault, then bought a set of thick clothes, and quietly arrived at the location indicated on the map.

Afterwards,

She witnessed a bizarre death case with her own eyes.

A crystal energy car had just stopped, and a middle-aged man in a high-end leather jacket got out of the car. As a result, he slipped and fell embarrassingly on the snowy ground.

The driver got out of the car to help, but forgot to step on the "parking brake," causing the vehicle to slide backwards. The driver quickly got back in the car, but stepped on the wrong place.

The crystal energy car accelerated in reverse and ran over the middle-aged man.

Xie You was stunned.

So many coincidences all coming together, how did Lord Yongye do it?

It's too terrifying!

She had already recognized that this middle-aged man was the archenemy of her former benefactor. She had heard from the fat man that this guy was inquiring about her situation.

Xie You immediately realized.

The "good show" planned by Lord Yongye was not just to eliminate a potential threat for herself, but also a form of intimidation, making her obediently follow orders.

Otherwise, she would end up like the middle-aged man, becoming a corpse on the roadside.
