Chapter 66 - Problem Solved?

To retrieve the money, at least you must first determine the exact location of Alley Five in the city.This alleyway comes alive, waking up at 8:15 PM every night. Before that, there definitely has to be a fixed resting place.

If she wasn’t mistaken, she heard sounds of flowing water in the background of the call earlier, with occasional ticking echoes and the clashing of pipes.

Xu Xiaoyou judged that they must be in some part of the city’s underground sewer system at the moment.

But the entire city’s underground drainage system is as intricate as a giant maze, and finding that group of Dissectors with just this clue is like trying to fish a needle from the ocean.

She had to figure out how to pinpoint their exact location...

Time quickly shifted to nighttime.

The company’s underground garage.

A faint scent of gasoline and damp mildew permeated the air.

Dim white lights illuminated this man-made cavern, where rows of vehicles stood silently, casting rows of shadows.

Very few employees come here after work; at the moment, not a single person was in sight.

For them, the cost of a hovercar for daily commuting equaled a lifetime of hard work.

If it’s just for commuting, buying a hovercar specially doesn’t make much sense.

Only those at the top of the power hierarchy can enjoy the joys of life in this city.

Within the expansive underground garage, the werewolf’s footsteps echoed heavily and sluggishly.

Wilson’s figure staggered through the pillars, drunkenly reaching his car, his hand on the handle, swaying as if a gentle push would tip him over.

He burped drunkenly, slumping over the car.

"Damn it... those old coots can really drink; I think I overdid it a bit."

This werewolf supervisor valued face, and this Rolls of Skydrifter was one of only twenty in Nest City, worth millions of credit points, an unattainable dream for countless people at the bottom.

He took a deep breath and looked up; just when he was fumbling for his keys, his eyes skimmed the rearview mirror.

"Hmm?"

Wilson rubbed his eyes and abruptly turned around; there was nothing.

Did he just see wrong?

It seemed he had seen someone in a hoodie standing right behind him, with a few strands of golden hair drifting out of the hoodie...

Suddenly, his eyes widened.

In the rearview mirror, that hoodie figure appeared again, a ball of flame bursting in his hand, suddenly hurtling towards his head.

"Holy shit!!!"

In panic, Wilson instinctively rolled aside, the scorching flame grazing his temples, singeing them into curled blackness.

Boom—

The Fireball exploded in the distance, sending a loud echo.

The sirens of the cars parked within the garage blared loudly, rising and falling in waves.

"Are you insane?!"

Wilson shouted at the golden-haired girl, his entire body sprawled on the ground, using his hands to crawl backward.

The werewolf supervisor’s clothes were in disarray, fear creeping across his face, completely unlike his confident look from the daytime.

Xiaoyou, expressionless, silently pulled down the hoodie to cover her entire face, stepping towards Wilson step by step.

Indeed, solving problems.

She much preferred solving the people who posed them.

Thinking about this and that really pissed her off.

Walking this path or that path, no one can force her to choose.

She walks only her own path.

Xiaoyou looked down at Wilson who had backed into the corner of the wall.

As long as she discreetly eliminates this company supervisor.

Her secret will be safe and known to no one.
