Chapter 125 - Self-Rescue Manual of a Villainess
As Xiao Bai and Fube Zhengsi lay on the ground, they were both at a loss for what had just occurred, watching the black-robed figure vanish before their eyes. Suddenly hearing footsteps behind her, Fube Zhengsi instinctively prepared to react, but felt a sharp pain in his wrist—forgetting that his bones were already crushed by the black-robed figure just now. However, upon seeing the newcomer, Fube Zhengsi seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and Xiao Bai, who was clearly startled just now, jumped straight into the newcomer's arms. Nan Yin gently stroked the little fox in her arms, smiled faintly, and then looked at Fube Zhengsi next to her. Her gaze shifted down to Fube Zhengsi's hands, which were in a pitiful state. She furrowed her brows slightly and sighed, "Fube, go get treated. I've already contacted my trauma team before coming here." Upon hearing this, Fube Zhengsi knew that there was nothing for him to do here. He didn't inquire about the whereabouts of the black-robed person from before, and silently departed—being meddlesome was not in his nature. Watching Fube Zhengsi leave, outside the window, the trauma team's floating vehicle had arrived. Nan Yin patted the little fox's head, feeling the little one's panic, and it all turned into a sigh. Thank goodness, she finally made it in time. Otherwise, if she had hesitated for a second just now, she might have lost a family member and a valuable subordinate. Going back twenty minutes, when Nan Yin had just escaped from the arena of the psychic exam, she immediately received a mission prompt from Zanyin, reminding her that there was a task she hadn't completed yet. [Warning, protect target: Yu Yu Tushan is currently facing a life-threatening situation. Host is required to proceed immediately for protection. Mission will fail if the character is injured.] To be honest, it wasn't until the prompt sounded that Nan Yin remembered this mission, vaguely recalling that she had received this task right after meeting Xiao Bai. Nan Yin had been nervous about this task for a while, even causing Bai Lang and Fube Zhengsi to secretly keep an eye on Xiao Bai for some time, fearing for his safety. However, until Jiang Mi went to take the entrance exam, this task hadn't been initiated. Nan Yin slowly relaxed, but she didn't expect that the enemy of this so-called Yu Yu Tushan would make a move today. Although Nan Yin's face remained calm, she was quite flustered inside just now. After receiving the mission alert, she rushed back immediately and, at the critical moment, used her "Sudden Inspiration" ability to subdue the black-robed figure that suddenly appeared, then confined the unwelcome guest into her own system space. Thinking about it, Nan Yin couldn't help peeking at her system space, and sure enough, the individual was venting out angrily, apparently thinking they had been confined in some kind of treasure space. But she couldn't do anything about it for now. Nan Yin glanced at it a few times and then disregarded it, turning to Bai Lang, who had just arrived after receiving the news. "Bai Lang, how many psychic cores did you get from the psychic hunters on your end?" Three hours later, Fube Zhengsi, who had been preliminarily treated, followed Bai Lang into the Chairman's office at the Ambrella International. The snow-haired girl, who had just returned home, was sitting at her designated spot, with the sleeping white fox in her arms. "Fube, are your hands okay now?" Nan Yin retracted her gaze from Xiao Bai and looked at Fube Zhengsi, whose hands showed no signs of injury. The technology in this world could still be trusted. Fube Zhengsi nodded slightly, and Bai Lang interjected, "The trauma team did everything that was needed. Although it looks fine on the outside, don't expect to use a gun again in the near future." Upon hearing this, Nan Yin didn't know what to say. Fube Zhengsi was her right-hand man, and now he was temporarily disabled. She could only put this matter aside for the time being and then turned to Bai Lang. Understanding what Nan Yin wanted to say, Bai Lang didn't wait for her to speak. He picked up a black briefcase and placed it on the table. After inputting the password, Nan Yin opened it herself. Inside were six transparent crystal formations of various colors. Nan Yin had already seen these things before—one, these were all psychic cores that could only be extracted from the hearts of psychics, also known as psychic cores. For gangs like the ones in the Philo district, which were established in places where psychics flourished, it was normal for there to be psychic cores after Bai Lang and Fube Zhengsi had cleared out so many factions, big and small. On another note, although this world was one where everyone had psychic abilities, even the homeless under the bridge had psychic powers, but the abilities of ordinary people who hadn't gone through system training and education were actually not very powerful. For example, a fire-class psychic—those of the lowest level might not even be as effective as a lighter. This was just one example. So-called effective psychics were those who could skillfully wield their powers for various purposes. With this in mind, Nan Yin took out a white psychic core from her own space. This was the psychic core she had taken from the heart of the ice-class psychic she had killed. That psychic was definitely considered "effective." Placing this psychic core together with the others, there were a total of seven psychic cores. After some thought, Nan Yin handed four of them to Fube Zhengsi and the remaining three to Bai Lang. "Fube, Bai Lang, I need you to activate your psychic abilities—after all, a well-armed security company can't function without psychics." Nan Yin spoke, looking at the two people in front of her. Fube Zhengsi immediately agreed to put away the psychic cores, while Bai Lang hesitated for a moment before accepting them. This made Nan Yin take a closer look at him. But now was not the time for an internal discussion. Nan Yin waved her hand, and Fube Zhengsi and Bai Lang left one after the other. As she watched her two subordinates leave, Nan Yin realized that the little fox in her arms had already fallen asleep. This made her feel a bit helpless—clearly, she had just experienced a life-threatening situation, and now the little one could sleep so soundly. She wondered if the fox was exceptionally brave or had found a sense of security in her arms. Thinking about this, the helpless smile on Nan Yin's face slowly disappeared, replaced by contemplation. The black-robed figure who had attacked Xiao Bai today was undoubtedly the most powerful enemy she had encountered so far. If it weren't for the items Zanyin had sent, she might have lost today. But the question that followed was this—just what is Xiao Bai, or Yu Yu Tushan's true identity? What kind of enemy would attract adversaries of this caliber? The original story was just a romance game, and it couldn't possibly showcase the world or character backgrounds. In the original work, Yu Yu Tushan was simply described as the Tushan Fox. Now, it seems that this little one is by no means just an ordinary fox... After all, both emperors and commoners can be considered human, can't they?
