Clearly, Su Gao still had a long way to go in terms of recklessness compared to Fu Qian.
Her actions before had already maximized her Hunter talent to the limit.
Within a reasonable speed, her choice of routes and responses were impeccable; even Fu Qian didnât think he could do any better.
However, considering the area wasnât the busy downtown but still had a considerable flow of people, it was clear that Su Gao still had some reservations about going all out.
âGood.â
But out of trust for Fu Qian, she hesitated only briefly before changing her course of action.
The next moment, she stepped forward and entered a narrow alley with incredible speed.
The child is teachable.
Fu Qian was quite satisfied with her reaction and roughly checked their bearings before following her from a distance.
As for the one hiding in the shadows, two things could now be confirmed.
First, he was alone and had not brought any helpers.
This was easy to understand; such a special survival talent would be compromised by the presence of followers, literally becoming an obvious target.
Second, he didnât seem inclined to engage in a head-on fight; in fact, Fu Qian even doubted he had the ability to do so.
All along the way, there were nothing but small tricks, simply taking advantage of the fact that âMs. Violettaâ did not want to cause too much trouble and playing on her psyche.
But here lies a problem, do you really dare to create chaos?
This purely personal preference with seemingly no benefitâitâs hard to imagine Yasui Corp offering much support for it.
Yasui Corp had just sunk a ship, so they probably wouldnât want the Night Watchman knocking on their door again, right?
So in Fu Qianâs view, if Su Gao went âall out,â the one who would panic would be that guy.
And his judgment proved to be correct.
Almost the instant Su Gao activated, the target in his perception showed a stress response.
Still erratic and fleeting, but not only did the movements speed up, he even began to run towards less crowded areas.
Too bad, all of these efforts were already meaningless!
You simply donât know what kind of opponent you are facing.
Fu Qian mused this as he walked up to a semi-open stall.
âWant something to eat?â
The stall owner, an elderly lady with graying hair and a friendly face, looked over with a smile, with not a hint of panic in her demeanor.
The reason was simple; she was just legitimately running her stall.
An opponent who only dares to hide and cast a curse from the shadows, having the courage to try a strategy to draw the tiger from the mountain or to snatch chestnuts from fire, has an almost zero probability.
âŠ
Carrying the warm roasted rice cakes, Fu Qian caught up with Su Gaoâs pace as the professional Hunter stood next to a fountain, admiring the reflection of the setting sun in the water.
Across the pond, an even older man with whiter hair and a face deeply etched with wrinkles was bending over, meticulously cleaning up every piece of debris.
âHere you go!â
Fu Qian stood next to Su Gao and handed over the unopened portion.
Considering her dietary preferences, Fu Qian had asked the lady to sprinkle extra brown sugar on it.
ââŠthank you.â
The shift in tone was rather abrupt, and Su Gao hesitated for a moment before softly thanking him and taking it.
Fu Qian said no more, just stood by her side, watching the old man sweep until the ground was clean as if licked by a dog.
âHeh hehâŠâ
Eventually, the old manâs movements stiffened for a few seconds before throwing down his tool and applauding with a smile.
âItâs really the younger generation to be feared. After so many years, youâre the first to find me so quickly!â
You can tell itâs been many years.
As Fu Qian observed the manâs face now in full view, he silently nodded.
Strictly speaking, in terms of appearance, the man seemed to be merely in his seventies or eighties, but at a glance, the sense of age emanating from his soul was a hundred times denser than that of vintage spirits.
Although his frame was still relatively upright, his flesh was withered.
âWhat shall I call you?â
Considering that Su Gao was not talkative, Fu Qian promptly took over the task of interrogation.
âTakahashi Yaehiro, a doctor at Yasui Corp.â
Facing Fu Qianâs less than polite tone, the old manâs expression also turned frosty as he huffed and introduced himself.
âPleasure to meet you, pleasure to meet you, Darcy Crawford, the Otaku Sorcerer.â
Fu Qian also introduced himself earnestly, but the words were almost too embarrassing to behold.
And seeing Old Master Takahashiâs reaction, it was clear that he held the statement in disdain.
âCould you explain what you meant by your actions earlier?â
âJust helping out a young man troubled by love.â
Caught by Su Gao, Takahashi Yaehiro obviously realized there was no point in playing dumb and admitted to his earlier antics quite openly.
âAnd can you explain why you went to Mist Society Temple earlier?â
As an old man with a wealth of life experience, he naturally wasnât content with just answering questions passively.
âIf I remember correctly, thatâs an open area. Anyone can go there, right?â
Fu Qian asked, frowning.
âAnd then you stayed in the open area for a long time, did nothing, and just left empty-handed.â
Takahashi Yaehiro was naturally not so easily fooled.
âWho says?â
Fu Qian flashed Kagetsu Kanaâs badge as a retort.
âŠ
âThat woman, she is indeed somewhat different.â
The badge in Fu Qianâs hand had clearly touched a nerve with Takahashi Yaehiro, who spoke with a stern face the next moment.
âSuch charm, it has already exceeded the realm of an ordinary person.â
âTakagi would definitely agree with you.â
Fu Qian nodded his head.
True gold always shines; the anomalies in Kagetsu Kana were destined not to be hidden for long.
âSo, are you the person in charge of that little game?â
The next moment he toyed with the badge, casually asking.
The little gameâŠ
Takahashi Yaehiro snorted, but upon seeing Su Gaoâs silent presence, he felt an immense pressure within.
This strangerâs face exhibited a terrifyingly oppressive force, and in just a few minutes, he felt as if there was no escape.
So much that, in the end, he had to give up on fleeing far and simply took a chance on a basic disguise.
Unfortunately⊠it didnât work.
The most crucial part was, this person, by just remaining silent, made him dare not gamble on whether she would really take action.
âFirst of all, I am not, and secondly, if itâs just a little game, why are you so concerned?â
âBecause itâs interesting. Even just as a variety show, itâs already quite a well-conceived project.â
Fu Qian did not skimp on his affirmation.
âItâs not your design, huh? That makes sense, you donât seem to have much of an imagination.â
âYou seem to have not learned the slightest bit of respect for the elderlyâŠâ
Fu Qianâs talent for mockery was undoubtedly, and the veins on Takahashi Yaehiroâs forehead began to bulge.
Respect for the elderlyâŠ
Fu Qian slightly furrowed his brow.
âHow old are you?â
âMuch older than you imagine.â
Takahashi Yaehiro huffed and looked up at the sky.
âSo far, it has already been over three hundred springs and autumns.â
Three hundred?
Fu Qian recalled the numerous Transcendent beings he had tormented over time.
Forget three hundred, he had fought several of over five hundred.
âOver three hundred years old and still not a demigod?â
