After the evolution was halted, I found a way to bring him to Fountain Square. You should ask him about it.
Me? Yan Qing pointed to himself. Given his relationship with Qi Qiuluo, could they really share secrets?
Tan Ming hadn’t told him that Qi Qiuluo had said if Yan Qing was still alive, he would reveal the secret to him.
Yan Qing felt a pang of self-doubt and inadvertently glanced at the Huang Men Ji Mi Fan Dian across the commercial street.
His gaze lingered for a moment before he dashed over without greeting anyone.
In a single leap, he covered several meters and swiftly arrived at his destination.
Outside Huang Men Ji Mi Fan, weeds had sprouted through the cracks in the ground, and a layer of yellow dust coated the glass door. Inside, the body of the person who looked exactly like Qi Qiuluo, whom they had seen here before, had inexplicably vanished, leaving not even a fragment of bone behind.
As time passed and flora and fauna evolved, the decomposition of bodies accelerated. After the last evolution halt, the nutrients from the corpses had been drained, leaving behind only desiccated remains. Now, those remains had completely turned to white bones.
But what about Huang Mao’s bones?
It was impossible for there to be not even a speck of dust on the ground!
No matter how fast time flowed, there shouldn’t be absolutely no trace of bone fragments!
Where was Huang Mao? Yan Qing wondered.
Tan Ming recalled the note that Master Ban had given him, which he later returned to Qi Qiuluo after testing it.
The note read that Qi Qiuluo had played tricks on them.
After showing the note to Qi Qiuluo during his testing, Tan Ming noticed an intense reaction from him!
Tan Ming hadn’t delved into it deeply.
But playing tricks…
Tan Ming thought back carefully; Qi Qiuluo’s behavior seemed more like one filled with anger and embarrassment, as if he were caught off guard.
But caught off guard?
What was exposed?
If it was related to the Wolf Messenger Identity, then why didn’t he have a Red Card?
But if it wasn’t about the Wolf Messenger Identity, what was he afraid of being exposed?
"I've exposed your lies!" Tan Ming exclaimed, his words sharp and direct.
"Yes, it's a lie!" Qi Qiuluo retorted, her voice filled with indignation.
"What's fabricated is not the identity, but the lies!" she continued, her tone unwavering.
Tan Ming then said, "I'm going back now. You keep an eye on the sheep and make sure it doesn't wander off."
Yan Qing, curious, asked him, "How are you going back?"
In that moment, the sheep that had been calm just a second ago blinked its big, silly eyes.
Yan Qing barely moved when suddenly, the sheep let out a loud "Baa!" and its fur stood on end.
Realizing what had happened, Yan Qing was startled by the sheep's reaction.
On the second floor of the restaurant, Tan Ming was still unresponsive. Xu Le sat beside him, head down and eyes closed, dozing off.
Suddenly, Tan Ming opened his eyes wide and let out a sharp "Baa!"
His hands slapped down onto the ground as he attempted to get up.
Xu Le jumped in surprise, his eyes widening. Once he processed what was happening, he grabbed Tan Ming and covered his mouth with one hand.
The people around them were stirred awake.
"Was there a sheep just now?" one murmured in confusion. "I thought I was dreaming!"
Xu Le held onto Tan Ming tightly and coughed lightly. "It’s just my phone’s ringtone," he quickly explained.
Fortunately, he reacted swiftly.
Tan Ming pushed his hand away, but Xu Le immediately covered his mouth again. They repeated this three times in a row.
"Xu Le..." Tan Ming tried to speak.
Hearing his voice made Xu Le feel a rush of excitement. He wanted to say something but instinctively glanced at his phone.
The phone screen still displayed the chat history from an hour ago between him and Tan Ming.
Tan Ming: I'm stepping out for a bit, keep an eye on me.
Xu Le: ?
Tan Ming: After I close my eyes, hit me until I pass out.
Xu Le: ???
When Tan Ming called Xu Le's name, everyone sat up.
