Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1125: Chapter 671: Accepting the Summons

“You like spending time with Ding Dong, so you’re willing to travel thousands of miles to Taboo Land No. 002 just to eat some fruit he prepared for you, and then leave.”

In the twilight, Yang Yang spoke softly.

The sunlight shone on their faces, until it eventually set behind the mountains in solitude.

“Yes,” Qing Chen nodded, “because seeing him reminds me of the original form of kindness. Yang Yang, before the time-travel incident, I was just an ordinary student, not knowing how to face tomorrow. Every day, I would go to that little alley on Junmin Road to play chess with the shop owner. The owner knew I was poor, so even when I kept losing, he continued to play with me. It wasn’t that he was learning chess, but he was moved by my effort to survive and wanted to lend me a hand. At that time, I thought he was the kindest person, but my pride kept me from speaking of it as if each game was a fair trade.”

Qing Chen sat under the awning of the supermarket in that alley, watching people at the end of the path rush to catch the No. 103 bus.

Watching raindrops fall on the ground outside the awning.

Back then, he felt safe there, but only within that alley. Upon leaving, he had to face the entire world.

Qing Chen: “It’s very difficult to maintain kindness in this world. Life will tell you more than once how insignificant your moral standards are. The vivid success stories teach you to do whatever it takes, so sometimes I get lost. But now, when I make choices, I think of that owner, think of Ding Dong. They are like anchors in my spiritual world. With them, a lonely ship won’t be overturned and fall to the bottom of the black sea by the black storm.”

Qing Chen: “When being with Ding Dong, there’s no need to consider the motives behind his actions, no need to consider what intentions he might have. He is genuinely kind to all living things.”

“So, that’s actually why you initially kept your distance from me, right? Because I had a motive,” Yang Yang leaned her head on his shoulder, speaking with a smile that was not quite a smile.

“Uh, this…” Qing Chen couldn’t answer, not expecting Yang Yang to bring it up.

The fragrance from the girl’s hair filled the orange-red air, lingering under Qing Chen’s nose.

The two suddenly began to enjoy the tranquility of the moment.

Qing Chen understood.

In fact, from the start, Yang Yang approached him in Los Angeles City because she discovered he might be someone around Uncle Li Dong.

So she wanted to use Qing Chen to win over the Knight Organization and join forces with Spade to overthrow the Federation.

Qing Chen was so guarded against Yang Yang initially because this girl entered his world too suddenly, too purposefully.

She rented a place opposite his home.

Used the excuse of being directionally challenged to go home with him.

In front of other classmates, she quickly closed the distance between them by driving.

In fact, even the most directionally challenged person couldn’t forget a 5-minute walk, right?

At that time, Yang Yang seemed more like a secret agent using beauty tactics on him…

Qing Chen didn’t like that feeling, so he maintained his distance and didn’t bring Yang Yang into the Daytime group for a long time.

However, their relationship eventually progressed, becoming friends and even slowly surpassing friendship.

The girl helped him more and more, and he began to share the same goals with her, eventually forgetting their initial purposes.

Spade 2 Yang Yang has now become Daytime Yang Yang…

Yang Yang even persuaded Xu Linsen and Jiang Mubei to work for Qing Chen in City No. 22.

Of course, Spade’s intention was not just to win over the Knight Organization. They knew their power was too weak against the Federation, so they needed all the forces they could travel with.

For this reason, realizing their limitations, Spades A Xu Linsen even worked for Qing Chen in City No. 22…

With Yang Yang’s efforts, Spade is close to merging with Parents’ Meeting…

Luo Wanya, when he returned last time, even told him that after handling City No. 22, Xu Linsen did not leave Parents’ Meeting, but led the team further north to City No. 24, continuing the city transformation work as a member of the Golden Family.

Of course, Xu Linsen did not admit to being Spades A, and Luo Wanya didn’t spell it out.

Spade now genuinely believes Parents’ Meeting’s path is very reliable, and it is exactly the path Spade wants…

Sometimes, Qing Chen suspects Yang Yang is also an Internal Test Player, selected by Yan Liuyuan from the wilderness.

Because her actions carry some wilderness wildness: straightforward and eager to pierce your heart with words on the spot.

People say Yang Yang, like Hu Xiaoniu and Zhang Tianzhen, is a rich second generation from Haicheng High School, yet she never mentions her parents, and Qing Chen can’t find out what her parents do.

Moreover, if Yang Yang replaced the Inner World Yang Yang to become a Spade member, then if Spade members know she is a Time Traveler, why would they tolerate their friend and organizational member being so heartlessly replaced?

Just like Shadow’s treatment of Qing Chen, if a Qing Chen from the Outer World really replaced Shadow’s brother, he would probably die instantly, right?

No friends or family could accept such a result.

When Yan Liuyuan selected Internal Test Players, he seemed very balanced. He picked one from each force, watching these Internal Test Players accept Outer World culture and then return to the Inner World to divide the consortium from within.
