Chapter 19 - Chapter 19: System Exposed?

...

"Understood."

Jiao Wuhen hung up the phone directly, eyes full of anxiety.

"What happened?" Jiao Xiaoyan asked curiously.

The others were also waiting for the follow-up.

Jiao Wuhen did not hide it and explained, "An earthquake suddenly occurred in Cloud City."

"Is there anything strange about an earthquake?"

"Could it be related to the monsters?" Ye Jinnian guessed.

After all, if it were a normal earthquake, how could the call have reached Jiao Wuhen?

Jiao Wuhen nodded slightly.

"Not sure. This earthquake happened half an hour ago, it just appeared very abruptly."

"But the point is, it is said that before the earthquake appeared, a terrifying fluctuation seemed to come from the edge of the city."

Hmm?

"Terrifying? Can you old guy finish speaking in one breath?" Ye Jinnian was a bit impatient.

"Hmph, it is useless for you to be anxious. This matter is too sudden, everything said needs specific investigation, so they asked me for advice on subsequent arrangements."

"But the report content says that the relevant personnel who reported it described it as a terrifying feeling of palpitations."

Jiao Wuhen naturally knew what he was anxious about, but if it were not for the transition from Jiao Xiaoyan and the others just now, he estimated that he would have thought the person reporting was crazy.

Abrupt earthquake, terrifying fluctuations spread across half the city instantly.

The few people present did not speak, but they probably all tacitly reached the same answer.

"Captain Yang, let's look at the contents of the USB drive first." Ye Jinnian looked at Yang Lingfeng.

Yang Lingfeng's hands did not stop, and soon the process of meeting Fei Xiao was presented to the four of them.

After watching, the two old men were shocked again in unison.

The video showed far more reality than the explanation.

Especially Fei Xiao's astonishing arrow in the video.

Jiao Wuhen immediately dialed a number again, and Ye Jinnian guessed the other party's purpose upon seeing this.

He turned his head and looked at the two people in the squad seriously.

"You have been in contact with the other party, so how do you feel about Fei Xiao?"

Jiao Wuhen finished the call and stared at the two as well upon hearing this.

Jiao Xiaoyan, seeing her grandfathers' serious gazes for the first time, still commented:

"I feel she is a very good person, a gentle and kind big sister."

"I feel... could Fei Xiao come from the same place as the so-called Pokémon?" Yang Lingfeng expressed his different opinion.

The old men nodded; they also had this guess.

"Ring ring."

The phone rang again.

Jiao Wuhen directly turned on the speakerphone.

"Elder Jiao, there is no such person in the country. No identity information was found at all, just like she appeared out of thin air."

Everyone gasped upon hearing this.

...

...

Fei Xiao and the others were still walking on the rugged road.

The small path in the forest was messy at the moment. Except for Fei Xiao, the culprit, the other two could only be described as miserable.

Meng Xi walked and seemed to think of something. "By the way, Fei Xiao, we still don't know where you live?"

"Uh, I lived outside the city before, and today I was bumped into by you after trying to find the city. So, currently, I am kind of homeless."

"Oh, so that means you are temporarily homeless? How about you stay at our house first?" Lin Siyu invited directly after knowing the other party had nowhere to go for the time being.

"Ah? Isn't that bad?" Although Fei Xiao was a little tempted, going to live with a girl... although she is also a girl now.

A faint blush flashed across Fei Xiao's pretty face.

But Lin Siyu did not give up.

"There is nothing bad about it. You saved my life, just staying for a few days is no big deal. And it just so happens to let us thank you properly."

Fei Xiao hesitated for a moment and finally nodded. "Then I will disturb you for now."

Meng Xi spoke again. "Can I ask a question?"

"Hmm."

"It is about your hair and pupils..."

Halfway through, Fei Xiao understood.

"They are all natural, not dyed or colored contacts."

After all, this hair color is indeed conspicuous in the Dragon Kingdom.

"Wow, really? No wonder it looks so good."

Lin Siyu's eyes were full of curiosity, and even Meng Xi's eyes were full of surprise.

At first, they all thought it was dyed or cosplay.

"Sigh, by the way, Sister Fei Xiao, where is your previous outfit?"

Lin Siyu asked the question she had been very concerned about before; she liked Fei Xiao's clothes quite a bit.

"That counts as my combat suit, I guess."

Actually, it is fine as casual wear, but it is too conspicuous.

And Lin Siyu was already fantasizing about copying one to cosplay.

"One last question, I won't ask after this."

Lin Siyu looked up at her genuinely, blinking from time to time.

Fei Xiao directly anticipated it. "It is about my abilities during the previous battle, right?"

"Mm-hmm!"

The Little Loli nodded frantically in excitement, her twin tails swaying in the air.

Meng Xi also looked over from the corner of her eye.

Fei Xiao did not keep them in suspense and brought out the previous explanation again.

Lin Siyu's cute little face collapsed instantly.

"Sister Fei Xiao, is there really no way?"

While speaking, she hugged Fei Xiao's arm and kept shaking it, two dough balls pressing against it.

Fei Xiao was no longer blood-swollen, but her ears were already stained with a blush.

She hurriedly broke free. "Currently, I have no way at all."

This time, both of them noticed Fei Xiao's shyness.

Sweet smiles appeared on their faces too.

After all, who would have thought that someone so confident and powerful just now would be shy now?

This also indirectly narrowed the distance between them.

"By the way, Fei Xiao, do you have Pokémon around you too?" This time it was Meng Xi's turn to ask, her eyes subconsciously looking at Meloetta standing side by side with Little Fire.

Fletchinder's injuries had miraculously healed under Fei Xiao's magical spray.

It is just that it was flying in the air all the time now, and even if it landed, it wouldn't look at her.

Did she make it angry?

Mentioning this, Fei Xiao was also quite interested; this should count as the world's first Pokémon trainer.

"Strictly speaking, they are not monsters, but Pokémon."

...

Fei Xiao poured out the basic information from before.

The two looked at each other, feeling incredible.

"Sister Fei Xiao, are you from the official side?"

"Not at all, I am just an ordinary person."

"Sister Fei Xiao, you wouldn't happen to be that kind of novel protagonist, would you?"

Fei Xiao???

Lin Siyu noticed the other party's confusion and spoke her own opinion.

"Isn't it? Being so beautiful, having such strong strength, and knowing so much, isn't this the standard protagonist? Could it be that you have a system or something?"

Fei Xiao (●—●)

Uh, although you guessed it right, your reason... can't say it makes no sense, can only say it's completely irrelevant.

Fei Xiao silently looked at Meng Xi.

Coincidentally, the other party also looked over, soon she turned her head away lightly, her face still cold.

Fei Xiao did not realize this girl was quite cold, she looked down at the Little Loli who looked at her with admiration.

Finally, she reached out her right hand first.

"Ah!"

After a scream.

"You should read fewer novels."

"Then can you not hit my head? I won't grow tall."

Lin Siyu stared at Fei Xiao with resentful eyes, trying to make her feel guilty.
