Strange Cards

Chapter 196 features a noblewoman with extraordinary abilities.

Time flew by and the end of the month arrived, and everyone was in high spirits.

For no other reason than the news that the National Day holiday would be seven days long, which was enough to excite everyone.

The group from the Southern Base decided to go to Kyoto for a month before returning. Gu Yue and Liu An even specially arranged leave for the two younger members.

After packing up the lab's contents and locking it up, Shiyu left the lab after setting up several emergency locks and procedures.

At this time, everyone in the Hunters was handing over tasks. Not to mention, a total of seven people at the entire South China Sea University, including the president, had requested a month's leave. Among them were not only four students but also two professors.

After completing everything, Liu An chartered a plane for around 10 a.m. the next day and headed directly to Kyoto within two hours.

But as the date drew closer, Shigure became increasingly uneasy. To be honest, Shigure didn't want to go to Kyoto, or even get close to it.

There lies the nightmare of Shiyu's childhood, and the thought of those guys with the same surname as him makes Shiyu's anger rise involuntarily.

However, Liu An seemed to have the ability to read minds. When everyone was away, he pulled Shi Yu aside and said...

"What's wrong, Xiaoyu? You've been looking downcast lately."

"Don't you want to go to Kyoto?"

"....In no mood..."

Liu An was stunned for a moment, then realized why Shi Yu didn't want to go to Kyoto.

"You don't want to see anyone from the Shi family, right?"

".....Um...."

"It's no big deal, give me a smile."

"At worst, you can just skip the party and take Bai Yu with you. I'll talk to the boss about it."

At this moment, Bai Yu appeared out of nowhere and ran to the two of them.

"Master, Aunt Liu, what are you two talking about?"

Shi Yu looked at Bai Yu and hugged her in her arms.

"Let me ask you, do you want to go to Kyoto with everyone, or somewhere else?"

"Let's go to Kyoto with everyone! Sister Yuyan and the others told me it's a lot of fun there."

"Okay, let's go then."

Shi Yu looked at Liu An, then at Bai Yu in her arms.

"There's no other way, I guess I'll have to go with them."

"Once this girl gets itchy, you won't be able to keep an eye on her. She might cause some really big trouble."

Suddenly, Liu An thought of something, took out a cell phone and handed it to Shi Yu.

"I have to go out tonight and won't be back until very late. My eldest brother is going back to his father-in-law's house with his wife."

"Those two kids are with Yu Yan. Go over there tonight and keep an eye on them. Try not to cause any trouble before you leave."

"After 10 o'clock, just prepare a room for the two kids and let them sleep together. You can do whatever you want with them."

"What about Dr. Guan Yun, the great expert Shunzi?"

"Those two Haier brothers were drafted by the doctor and are testing the next possible piloting of the Hunter God mech."

"Okay, I'm going now, bye-bye."

With that, Liu An left like a whirlwind, and then Yu Yan returned with the two children.

Yu Yan and the two children were eating while carrying large and small bags. They waved to Shi Yu and Bai Yu as they looked at the two standing together.

"Hey, you two!"

"Come over and have some with us!"

It was 11 p.m. on Yu Yan's sofa.

There was a person nestled in each of the five large beanbag chairs; it was five guys sitting together in a row.

"Yu Yan, what are you doing? Did you hook us back with your hook?"

"Holy crap! Let's grab him and run!"

However, due to Yu Yan's confusing and baffling actions, the five players were unsurprisingly wiped out, and the team lost the game in one fell swoop.

"Yu Yan, you should play mid lane. Xiao Jiu plays support much better than you."

"Your deadly hook pulled that daddy over three times. If you had hooked the enemy carry as accurately as you hooked that daddy, we would have won this game already."

"It really was An Lushan who led Zhao Kuangyin into Chang'an; after the Tang Dynasty came the Song Dynasty."

"Ugh, next time I'll just hook anyone's head while playing Yao, I'm not playing this hook anymore."

But just as everyone was getting ready to start the next round, Yu Yan's phone suddenly rang. After glancing at the caller ID, Yu Yan answered the call.

"...Yes, yes, those two are already asleep, sleeping soundly."

"You'll be back even later, right? Okay."

"Then let's not wait any longer, let's go to sleep now."

After saying that, Yu Yan hung up the phone and continued with the Five Black Paths.

"Hurry up, the flowers are about to wither."

"Yu Yan, tell me honestly, was the person who called you just now Sister Liu An?"

Yu Yan hummed twice, then picked up her drink, took a sip, and said with a smile.

"There was such a powerful noblewoman."

"She actually managed to call our hideout from within Nanhai City!"

"Who dares to interfere with Miss Yu Yan's affairs?"

"I insist that her daughter stay up all night with me tonight to reach the highest rank in the game!"

Just as Shi Yu was about to say something, she saw a figure standing at the door. She quickly picked up Bai Yu, then tucked Liu Yu under her other armpit, and carried Qi Nannan on her back.

"Didn't you three say you were going to my balcony to stargaze and pitch a tent? Let's go now."

As he spoke, Shigure opened the black hole and led the three of them inside.

Yu Yan was unaware of what had happened; she only saw Shi Yu give her a pitying look before leaving.

"What happened?"

"No, there's a murderous aura behind me."

Yu Yan turned her head and saw Liu An standing behind her with a dark face, holding a broken bone whip in his hand.

Seeing this, Liu Anyu was instantly frightened and stammered a few words.

"Sister Liu An, let me explain... no, I mean, I want to offer an explanation."

"Would you believe me if I said that those two girls and Shiyu Baiyu dragged me to play games together?"

Do you think I believe it or not?

"Do you think I believe you?"

"What do you think? What do you think? Do you believe me or not?"

"....."

Even from this distance, Shi Yu could hear the scream that sounded like Tom the cat's scream, and she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for Yu Yan.

"Good luck to you. I never thought you'd run into trouble on your first all-nighter."

Seeing the two people watching the stars in the tent on the balcony, Shi Yu set up another tent, and then took Bai Yu into the tent to count the stars in the sky, just like Qi Nannan and Liu Yu.

The four of them counted the stars and gradually fell asleep, but for some, tonight was destined to be a difficult night.

"Sister Liu An..."

"It's no use, you dare to play tricks on me now?"

"Your skin's been loose for a while now, and you're itching for a good clean, aren't you? Well, I'll clean it up for you today."
