Naming Technique of the Night

At this moment, someone suddenly asked, ”What identities do we all have in the Inner and Outer Worlds? The Li Family wonʼt keep everyone isolated forever, they will surely bring us together for training eventually. When that time comes, we who have executed missions together can stick together for warmth.”

The person at the very front turned and said coldly, ”Do not ask about othersʼ Outer World identities, nor reveal your own. This way, if someone is caught, they wonʼt be able to immediately betray you. Understand? Or, are you harboring ill intentions by asking this question?”

”I wonʼt ask anymore, okay?” the individual muttered, closing their mouth in discontent.

A group of seven people arrived at the entrance of Lichun Road Police Stationʼs Administrative Office—an office that was merely an eighty-plus-square-meter public service window.

The adjacent police station had someone on duty, but the Administrative Office did not.

One of them took out a thumb-sized black device and pressed it against the access control lock. Ten seconds later, with a click, the door opened itself.

One stood guard outside while the other six entered the dark Administrative Office. One quickly turned on the computer inside the hall and plugged another device into the USB port.

The next moment, the computer screen in the hall unexpectedly turned red, displaying the words ”System Invasion.”

This scene was completely different from what the Li Family had described. According to them, all text data should be downloaded within 1 minute after connecting the device—without any hindrances!

No obstructions were supposed to be there at all!

But then, the computer screen suddenly went dark and there was no further response.

Meanwhile, the person on guard was scanning the surroundings when a youth with a buzz cut suddenly approached, smiling, and asking, ”Brother, got a light, can I borrow one?”

The guard hesitated, ”I donʼt smoke.”

Stay tuned with empire

As he spoke, the buzz-cut youth was already in front of him, and it was only then that the guard saw the dagger hidden in the youthʼs hand.

With one swift step, the dagger plunged into the guardʼs chest.

The youth, covering the guardʼs mouth, whispered, ”Shh, no talking.”

While doing so, he supported the guardʼs body and walked towards the Administrative Office.

The Time Travelers inside were taken aback, ”Didnʼt I ask you to keep watch outside? Why did you come in?”

The young man released the body of the guard and laughed, ”So it turns out to be a bunch of small fry. Has the Li Family not trained you properly? Looks like their plans will have to wait. Relying on people like you to complete the cleansing plan is childʼs play.”

After speaking, he closed the door of the Administrative Office and turned off the lights inside the room.

In the darkness, cries of pain and the sound of bones breaking were endless, like a scene from purgatory on earth.

A few minutes later, the noise inside the room gradually subsided.

With the scratch of a match, the young man lit a cigarette and brought it to his lips; the orange-red flame lit up his smoke, and the blue smoke twisted in the air.

The faint glow of the fire also illuminated his blood-streaked face, with its prominent, angular nose.

He pulled out a letter from his chest and wrote: The data fortress has been established, the household registration is not lost. It seems that this team is just a decoy to attract attention. The squad that Kyushu encountered is the real deal.

Having finished writing, he used the match to set the letter ablaze.

The buzz-cut youth took a deep drag of his cigarette, the tobacco curling and crackling from the burn.

He exhaled a plume of smoke, wanting to say something to the Time Travelers scattered on the ground.

But just then, all his words were stifled back in his throat.

Using the last glimmer of light from the burning letter, the youth saw Zheng Yuandong sitting on a chair across from him, silently watching him.

”Damn it!”

As the room plunged back into darkness, the young man tried to escape.

He didnʼt know when Zheng Yuandong had been lying in wait there, but he did know who Zheng Yuandong was, and what his presence meant.

No wonder he hadnʼt shown up all evening—it turned out he had long since become aware of the Li Familyʼs cleansing plan and was waiting here!

In the dark, the youthʼs pleas for mercy and screams echoed through the room: ”Lord, have mercy, Iʼm just a runner! Wait, stop hitting me, stop hitting my face! If Iʼd known you were here, I wouldnʼt have come!”

```

”Big brother, donʼt push people too far!”

”Ah! Damn!”

The room returned to silence.

Outside the house, Qing Chen heard the noises inside and turned to walk away into the distance.

The events of the night had been full of twists and turns, and he needed to go home to clear his thoughts and sort through what had happened.

In a deserted spot, Qing Chen took off his rain cloak and stuffed it into a ”clothing donation box” under the eaves of a nearby house.

By the time this rain cloak saw daylight again, it would be several days later and the person sorting the clothes would have no idea of its origin.

”Eh,” Qing Chen looked up, only to see a figure rapidly descending in the night sky.

He quickly dodged to the side, and the girl named Yangyang landed where he had just been standing.

Qing Chen stayed on guard and said nothing.

Yangyang glanced at the clothing donation box and asked curiously, ”What are you doing here? Iʼve been looking for you in the sky for quite a while!”

”Iʼm donating some clothes to the mountainous areas,” Qing Chen replied.

”Only a ghost would believe that nonsense,” Yangyang retorted.

”And why are you here?” Qing Chen frowned.

”To have you take me home,” Yangyang answered matter-of-factly.

Qing Chen was again shocked, ”You canʼt even find your own home, yet you could find me?”

”Because I knew you hadnʼt gone far,” said Yangyang. ”I wanted to take a cab home, but there are so few taxis in this rainy weather.”

”Oh,” Qing Chen said, ”then come with me.”

”By the way, what about your companion? Has he left?” Yangyang looked puzzled. ”Why didnʼt I see him?”

Qing Chen said, ”He probably took off his rain cloak ages ago, you never saw him, so of course you couldnʼt find him.”

With that, both of them turned onto the main road and walked side by side on the sidewalk.

The torrential rain had stopped, filling the air with a fresh and cool scent, which was extremely refreshing.

In the small city, the streets were poorly drained, and deep puddles had accumulated on the road.

Yangyang said, ”Oh, I have something to tell you. When the people from Kunlun asked who I was, I hadnʼt figured out what to say, so I just told them I was one of Liu Dezhuʼs subordinates.”

Qing Chen was somewhat exasperated. Now, Liu Dezhu would probably draw even more attention.

Yangyang then asked, ”What ability does your companion have, what level is he?”

”I donʼt know either, weʼre not allowed to contact each other privately,” Qing Chen shook his head.

Yangyang tilted her head and pondered for a moment, ”I still think you are the mastermind behind all this, even though I donʼt understand why an ordinary person who has taken a Genetic Potion can command Transcendents.”

”Sorry, you really got it wrong,” Qing Chen replied.

”Why donʼt I join you guys? Iʼm pretty good at fighting,” Yangyang said with interest. ”I feel like joining you would be fun.”

”I canʼt make that decision, I have to report to the boss,” Qing Chen responded.

Yangyang sighed, ”Alright then, Iʼll ask you again tomorrow.”

Qing Chen: ”...”
