Chapter 865: The Ladies Room Law
Itās almost a rule of thumb that thereās something off about the cubicles in the ladiesā room, especially in an eerie atmosphere like this-strange occurrences seem more likely. Of course, by strange, it usually means an ambush⦠But for someone to knowingly open that door, aware of the danger, the thrill and terror are no different from scratching a lottery ticket. The difference being, the former bets with their lifeā¦
This secretary clearly has the heart of a gambler. Not only did she not show a hint of fear, but she also seemed more excited. As she approached the door with a peculiar smile, she suddenly lifted her long leg and kicked it with lightning speed.
A short, muffled thud, an efficient method of destructionā¦the power of stilettos, truly terrifying!
But unfortunately, the stall was emptyā¦
The secretary felt a bit disappointed: āNo opening-kill scenario?ā
The dramatic pose she had prepared, rendered useless!
āHey, although I have no clue what youāre up to, we can always talk face-to-face, right? Or did you separate us just to take me out? Haha, thatās some confidence, but do you really have the strength for it? You were originally sent by Falcon, you should know the difference between us. If I were you, I wouldnāt make such suicidal moves.ā The secretary said with a playful laugh as she continued to kick the doors. Her actions undoubtedly put pressure on any hidden adversary, but inwardly, she marveled at their stealth.
Despite her sharp instincts, she hadnāt sensed their presence⦠If it werenāt for her caution and prudence, she might have been ambushed. The shadow in the Mirror still sent shivers down her spineā¦
āIs it here? Boom!ā
Another thud resounded as the last stall door was broken open.
āWhere are you?ā The secretaryās eyes widened, staring into the empty cubicle.
Frowning, she pondered for a moment and then turned her gaze toward the main door.
āCould it be that momentā¦ā She thought for a bit before clenching her fist, āDamn, you dare to trick me!ā
The restroom was only so large; opening the toilet wouldnāt magically reveal a gateway to another dimension. After ruling out all improbable speculations, what remained, however reluctant she was to admit, had to be the truth⦠āThat shadow was probably just a decoy to distract me. I just donāt know how he did itā¦ā The secretary looked up at the Ceiling but found nothing besides a vent only large enough for an Arm.
āWithout knowing what method he used, I canāt deduce what his Superpower might be⦠But the question now is, why is he doing this? Simply drawing attention doesnāt hold much significance⦠Wait!ā The secretary suddenly realized a critical issue!
She had completely lost track of Qi Tianyiās whereabouts. Whatās more, Qi Tianyiās Communicator was also out of reach⦠Presumably, their opponent wouldnāt have let Qi Tianyi pass through areas with surveillance cameras. Even with the advantage of her position, she couldnāt locate them quickly. And causing a scene here⦠this is the Second Camp, how could she?
āIf I were him, where would I lure someone as powerful as Qi Tianyi?ā The secretary pondered for just a couple of seconds before she couldnāt help but kick the restroom door again, and as she did, her shadow in the Mirror started to stretch taller and longerā¦
āSo this is the battlefield youāve chosen for yourself?ā Qi Tianyi thought wryly as he pushed open the Rooftop door.
Since the mention of the Rooftop, Qi Tianyi never thought that this was genuinely the plan⦠What was this, underestimating him? There were hardly any obstructions on the Rooftop; everything was in plain view! As for the Falcon Members dispatched here, he hadnāt considered any of them stronger than himself⦠Of course, this was a pure misconception on his part⦠and the same applied to the secretary.

Who says being on the sidelines is without advantage? This captain, having coasted for so long, probably never imagined heād have a day to bluff the chief captainā¦
āHere I am. Where are you?ā Qi Tianyi asked impatiently.
āRight behind you,ā the voice replied.
āHmm?ā Qi Tianyi immediately turned his head.
Not far behind him, a man dressed in a Falcon uniform was leaning casually against a water tank, staring at him. The man appeared quite ordinary, but the fact that he could get so close without being detected was enough to catch Qi Tianyiās attention. His gaze soon shifted to the manās shoulder, and then he frowned: āAre you saying the person providing the Intelligence is you? Just a captain, with your statusā¦ā Qi Tianyi was clearly suspicious, even questioning how Ling Mo came by his Communicator. Nonetheless, this seemingly unremarkable yet audacious individual quickly dispelled any lingering sense of underestimation in Qi Tianyi.
āThatās none of your business. Letās make a deal.ā Ling Mo said, clenching his fist.
Qi Tianyi was taken aback, then couldnāt help but laugh: āItās been a while since anyone tried to trick me like this. Youāve got some nerveā¦ā
āMake it quick, I canāt handle both of you at once right now.ā Ling Mo flicked his wrist, and a dagger slipped into his hand.
āYouāre too direct⦠Wait, you tricked me out of my weapon, and yet you pull out a knife yourself!ā Qi Tianyi was speechless. He had figured it out-either this person had no Intelligence to offer or had no intention of sharing it. For some reason, Qi Tianyi suspected the latter was more likely.
He had no prior dealings with this captain and knew little about him. However, from all the moves the man made tonight, it was clear he was someone who planned carefully before acting⦠Such individuals rarely acted recklessly, so this encounter might merely be a test.
Just as Qi Tianyi reached this conclusion, he suddenly realized⦠Ling Mo was gone!
The entire Rooftop was empty, seemingly leaving Qi Tianyi as the only person standing there.
āImpossibleā¦ā Qi Tianyi quickly darted to the wall behind him. Just as he was about to lean against it, a slight smile crept onto his lips. Turning swiftly, he threw a powerful punch at the wall.
As his fist connected, a foot suddenly emerged from thin air, colliding heavily with his punch.
Bang!
A dull thud echoed, and Qi Tianyiās expression changed as he stumbled back several steps. Regaining his balance, he licked his lips with a hint of excitement in his eyes, which reddened slightly. āAgain!ā he shouted, barely hiding his enthusiasm despite nearly being ambushed.
His speed abruptly increased to a new level; he was now almost invisible except for a faint afterimage.
āDamn, the captain of the Destruction squad is truly something else! That incredible speed-it took all my potential to achieve something similar! He must be an Enhancement ability user⦠And heās pushing himself beyond his limits now!ā Ling Mo thought rapidly while running. He had initially believed his speed would give him an edge over Qi Tianyi, but now it was clear that a makeshift approach had its limits. Even so, when it comes to endurance, Zombies would never fall behind!
A fierce yet peculiar battle erupted on the Rooftop. Apart from the clouds of dust occasionally bursting into the air, there were hardly any signs of life⦠The sporadic exchange of banter made it clear, though, that the place was indeed occupied.
āDidnāt expect to have such talents under me! Good, good!ā Qi Tianyi briefly revealed himself, then burst into laughter amidst Ling Moās ensuing attack. With one in pursuit and the other in flight, they kicked up more clouds of dust.
However, as they continued clashing, Qi Tianyi suddenly sensed something unusual.
Wasnāt the opponent getting tired?
