Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 936: 578. Countdown to Return

Jindai Yunhe couldn’t accept this failure.

He even used himself as bait, sacrificing another leg, just to get this chance to capture, but still let the other party escape.

Even the radar of the floating airship couldn’t determine where the other party went.

Due to excessive blood loss, his face gradually turned pale, and the area around his eyes became red with anger, looking exceptionally grim.

Jindai Yunhe gradually calmed down as well: “Deploy defenses, I’m not dead, he will definitely come back.”

At this moment, Qing Chen suddenly said in the air: “Based on my understanding of Field System Awakeners, when you’re 300 meters away from me, if I don’t resist, you can completely manipulate the field around me from afar. In other words, you could have stopped my fall long ago, instead of making it look so thrilling now, and then catching me in mid-air…”

Yang Yang replied earnestly: “But, they always perform it like this in the movies; it looks better in the scene that way!”

Qing Chen: “… This isn’t the time to add drama, I’m about to crash to the ground!”

“Don’t worry, it won’t happen, didn’t I catch you?” Yang Yang said confidently.

The two glided low through the city, fortunately, the Jindai Consortium had imposed a curfew for them, and only a few high-caste pedestrians remained on the streets.

Otherwise, just flying in the air like this would draw countless onlookers taking photos.

By then, the scene of Qing Chen being held would be posted online.

Yang Yang murmured quietly: “Huh, why is there no one, where did everyone go?”

Qing Chen: “… Quickly find a place to land, we’ll detour from the sewers to District Three, flying in the sky is too conspicuous.”

Saying this, Yang Yang reluctantly descended and followed him into the sewers.

“Is everything finished in City 10?” Qing Chen asked.

“Finished,” Yang Yang followed behind him: “The student protests went relatively smoothly, the House of Representatives has publicly promised to increase the education budget, allowing more children to go to school comfortably, and they will consider including middle school in compulsory education in the future. However, I also told Spade, history in the Outer World proves that without blood and sacrifice, true victory isn’t possible; wanting to negotiate peacefully with the consortium is a dead end.”

Qing Chen pondered: “So you’re bringing them to see how I do things? But saying this will make them very dissatisfied, after all, it’s a cause they’ve worked on for a long time, and now it’s suddenly negated.”

Yang Yang nodded: “Don’t worry, Xu Linsen is quite open-minded; if he finds a better way, he’ll join. Once Spade merges with Daylight, I won’t have to be conflicted about which organization I belong to.”

Qing Chen was momentarily stunned, so Yang Yang brought Xu Linsen over for this…

Others have to choose between two organizations, either join this one or that one, a choice of two.

Yang Yang’s thinking is different; she directly thinks of merging Spade with Daylight…

When the two arrived at the Ninth District, they returned to the ground.

By this time, the battle in the Ninth District had ended, and some civilians were carrying tied-up members of organizations towards the labor reform facility.

These civilians have also gotten smart and found some long metal rods from somewhere, strung up those organization members upside down, looking like they’re carrying a pig.

The civilians from the building ahead would pass the metal rods to the next building’s civilians after finishing their turn.

On this restless night, people outside of the Ninth District didn’t even realize that a revolution had occurred here.

After walking a few steps, Qing Chen suddenly stopped; not far ahead, Jiang Mubei was looking at him with ill intent.

“Hahaha, wrong road,” Qing Chen turned to leave.

But as soon as he turned, he saw Xu Linsen blocking his way.

Jiang Mubei said in a cold voice: “Hiding among us for so long without revealing your identity, are you deliberately mocking us?”

Qing Chen said: “Cough, cough, when you asked where I was at the noodle shop, I raised my hand, I raised it twice!”

Jiang Mubei said with agony: “Be a person!”

Qing Chen was silent for two seconds: “How can you speak to Joker like this…”

Jiang Mubei: “???”

Xu Linsen: “???”

Xu Linsen suddenly remembered, he even told this guy face to face, that the other should become Joker…

He couldn’t understand why having disguise abilities in the hands of someone like this could be so dangerous!

Qing Chen noticed the vague outline of a dharma figure forming behind Xu Linsen and hurriedly said: “Just kidding, just kidding… The goals of Daylight and Spade are the same, we are all allies in our own ways, so we should become comrades.”

“Is this how you calculate comrades?” Jiang Mubei said angrily: “We trusted you so much, and you tricked us into going after Jindai Yunlo.”

“I was also doing it for the residents of the Ninth District, and besides, I still want to kill Jindai Yunhe,” Qing Chen explained earnestly.

Speaking of this matter, Xu Linsen remembered as well; they were guessing on their way back how many organizations the art society could annex under this opportunity tonight, Jiang Mubei guessed a dozen, he guessed more than twenty.

The reality was, Luo Wanya was wholly prepared and just waited for tonight; in just one night’s time, they had destroyed a total of 71 organizations within the Ninth District.
