Chapter 424: 299, Outer World’s Li Dongze_3

“No need,” Qing Chen shook his head, “When this is over, other Kunlun colleagues will come to pick them up. They are no longer in any danger.”

“What about the female student?” Jiang Xue looked at Qing Chen.

“She’s just a female student,” Qing Chen said, “Drive.”

Qing Chen seemed to imply that the female student would only slow down his blade-swinging speed.

Jiang Xue stepped on the accelerator. She glanced at the rearview mirror and sized up Li Dongze for another moment, “I remember who he is now, but what do you plan to do with him? Do you have any good ideas?”

Suddenly, Jiang Xue felt the situation was quite tricky. Killing this Li Dongze from the Outer World? Impossible. Although Qing Chen was ruthless, he wouldn’t commit such an insane act that would harm the innocent.

…

But if not killed, how would they eliminate this future trouble? They couldn’t watch over him all the time.

Qing Chen calmly responded, “Don’t worry, Aunt Jiang Xue, I already have a plan.”

Jiang Xue was somewhat surprised; his counterpart always seemed to have a solution.

No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t figure out how Qing Chen would solve this thorny issue.

Li Dongze was regaining some strength and he thought to himself that Qing Chen and Jiang Xue didn’t seem like bad people.

“Excuse me, may I ask where you plan to take me?” Li Dongze asked weakly.

Qing Chen answered without blushing or skipping a beat, “The Kunlun safe house set up in Mian City.”

“I see,” nodded Li Dongze.

Kunlun and Kyushu had been mentioned countless times in the media. In the eyes of Ordinary People, they were anyway more effective than daylight.

And, indeed, he, Qing Chen was a member of Kunlun!

Having multiple identities offered this advantage; he could use whichever was needed at the crucial moment!

“So, stay close to me these next few days, and I will protect you,” Qing Chen said, “But don’t think of this as house arrest. You saw what happened before, it’s dangerous outside.”

Qing Chen intimidated and cajoled, lying without even batting an eyelid.

Li Dongze hurriedly nodded, “I understand, I understand, it’s very dangerous outside. But my friend, your injuries seem quite serious. Can you really protect me? Maybe you should rest properly.”

Qing Chen declared righteously, “Protecting the public is the responsibility of us at Kunlun, how can I rest just because I am a little hurt?”

Li Dongze from the Outer World was almost moved to tears, “Kunlun is so good, I’m so lucky to be saved by you, thank you!”

Qing Chen pondered, unsure about the situation on Kunlun’s side.

This evening, Zheng Yuandong had only provided him with information regarding Zhao Yayu’s situation and hadn’t mentioned anything about the other side.

One should know that among the Deer Island Time Travellers, there were some very thorny individuals.

No, Qing Chen recalled the message from Zheng Yuandong, which clearly stated he could handle this side of things on his own.

So, in fact, Kunlun had always been aware of the whereabouts of everyone on Deer Island, and they knew very clearly which side would face the most troublesome individual.

This information actually raised Qing Chen’s view of the Kunlun intelligence system by another notch.

Right, who was responsible for gathering intelligence at Kunlun? Xiao Ying had mentioned it before; it was someone called Ni Ergou.

The name sounded… really beyond words.

Qing Chen glanced at his phone; Zheng Yuandong had not sent any more messages, and Qing Chen did not intend to get involved in that matter anymore.

After all, even if he had not been injured in the abdomen and his left arm was inconvenient, he still should not have gotten involved in something so dangerous.

Rescuing Li Dongze was his sole objective; once achieved, he could retire successfully.

At that moment, Xu Zimo, covered in blood, slowly released her pressure on Zhou Xuanying’s wound.

She could feel Zhou Xuanying’s body growing colder—beyond saving.

Tian Hailong, despondent, sat on the steps, cradling his head. Even though none of this was his fault, the fact remained that a student was gone under his watch.

This was something Tian Hailong found hard to accept as a teacher. No matter the reason, he felt he had been negligent.

“Don’t be so sad, Teacher Tian. It’s not your fault,” consoled Wang Jiale, “We will tell everyone about Zhou Xuanying’s actions when we get back, and we all can testify for you that he brought it upon himself.”

“Right, if it weren’t for Qing Chen, we would all be dead,” Xia Xiaoran was still frightened even now.

She looked up to find Qing Chen, but to her surprise, he had disappeared.

“Eh, where’s Qing Chen?” Wang Jiale was taken aback.

He ran back to the minivan. Qing Chen was not in the vehicle, and the black box in the trunk was open.

Until now, they didn’t know exactly who was inside it.

And Qing Chen had left without anyone knowing when.

He didn’t plan to accept their thanks or to say farewell. He just vanished soundlessly.

At that moment, everyone realized that their gratitude didn’t matter to Qing Chen— they were just passersby in his life.

Xia Xiaoran looked at Xu Zimo, who had a blank expression, and suddenly remembered a phrase, “In youth, one shouldn’t meet someone too dazzling.”

Was Qing Chen dazzling? Xia Xiaoran wondered if she would humbly acknowledge his achievements and legends, and his composure in a crisis, then perhaps Qing Chen was indeed the most astonishing youth she had ever encountered in her life.

However, at that moment, Xu Zimo spoke in a low voice, “No, meeting someone too dazzling in youth is actually fortunate.”

Most people in their youth are vain and competitive, full of empty talk.

When you meet a youth who is always calm, without the impulsive overflow of adolescent hormones, you find a tough will that hides both cruelty and bottom lines.

That is how a youth should be.

It’s a pity not to belong to such a person, but what if you never meet one in your lifetime?

Wouldn’t that be an even greater pity?

With this thought, Xu Zimo sat on the ground at the entrance of the service area and suddenly smiled. Her pale cheeks and the vibrant blood had a unique beauty: “There’s no need for regret over the unattainable, just being a witness is good enough.”
