Luo Shiyun’s ability couldn’t recreate the entire castle’s timeline, but if it was just a single surveillance room… or even only the footage that had once played on the monitors, then everything became much simpler.
Though the assassin had made great efforts to avoid the surveillance cameras, never underestimate the security level of White Night Castle.
No matter how careful one was, there were always blind spots—especially after a failed assassination attempt.
She didn’t spend much time before finding the assassin’s current location in the surveillance room.
Without hesitation, she rushed straight there.
Anyone who dared lay a hand on her wife would never be spared.
But simply dealing with one small-time assassin was useless; she also needed to root out the employer behind the contract.
So this time, she couldn’t be as simple and brutal as before, slicing the target down in one clean stroke.
Thinking this, she arrived at the exit and found the assassin trying to escape.
She chased her all the way to the rooftop Tian Tai, seized the opportunity to slam her against the wall, then violently tore the stockings off the woman’s legs and stuffed them into her mouth.
The assassin was roughly tied to a water pipe for interrogation.
The entire process didn’t even take a minute, like bullying a helpless chick.
“Tell me, who sent you?”
“Wuu wuu wuu!!”
“My patience has limits.”
“Wuuu wuuu wuuu!!!”
“Won’t talk, huh? Well, at least you have some backbone.”
Drawing her silver-white rapier, the assassin’s eyes were filled with terror and despair.
“Wuuu wuuu wuu!?!!?”
“Good. Then have a safe trip.”
She raised the rapier, and just as the blade was about to fall, she suddenly sensed a familiar presence arriving.
Turning around, a coin hovered in midair, flying at her at high speed, whizzing past her ear before melting into the night sky.
Her silver-white hair, stirred by the wild wind, seemed to buzz with a faint electric current.
Wife?
Luo Shiyun tilted her head in confusion.
Why was she here?
Before Luo Shiyun could ask, a furious electric arc crackled from the girl drenched in electricity, striking around Luo Shiyun’s body and forcing her to retreat.
“Bianhua!”
“Good, you came looking for me yourself. Then I’ll settle this score properly!!”
Who was Bianhua?
Luo Shiyun blinked in confusion, only to suddenly remember.
Ah, Bianhua is me, almost forgot.
“This is a misunderstanding, old—”
Before she could finish, multiple bolts of electricity attacked from all directions, the energy enough to reduce a normal magical girl to the ground in defeat.
But she was Bianhua, Jiangnan City’s strongest magical girl.
Even the former big boss version of the lightning monster had been quickly dispatched by her—not to mention elite monsters like now.
Raising her rapier, a few swings blocked the wild electric currents.
Though she didn’t fully understand why her wife was attacking her, one thing was clear to Luo Shiyun:
When wives quarrel, they should just go exercise in bed until one is too tired, and then they’d make up.
There were plenty of rooms in White Night Castle for that.
Breaking free from the electric current’s constraint and attack, Luo Shiyun turned her back, sheathed her sword lightly, and leapt to the edge of the rooftop.
The deliberately exposed flaw was promptly seized by Yijinmo.
Under the pitch-black night, several coins slowly fell.
Now was the moment.
Embrace of the Underworld River · Sigh!
As the coins were launched, a powerful force forcibly pinned them in place, unable to move.
Seizing this chance, Lo Shiyun surged forward, ready to capture the black-haired figure in her arms.
“Sizzle sizzle sizzle!!”
But the figure of Yijinmo suddenly disintegrated, transforming into electrical currents and scattering.
A fake?
The girl quickly turned back, only to find the assassin she had just grabbed had vanished without a trace.
Only on the ground lay a puddle of shimmering liquid that hadn’t been there before.
…………
Oh my god, that was terrifying.
Yijinmo patted her chest nervously.
The hundred-thousand-volt electricity she summoned had been shattered in just a few moves, and every single super electromagnetic coin had been taken.
Luckily, before the fight, she had prepared her escape route, transferring her body along the circuit to another location in advance.
Otherwise, she’d definitely have been captured and crushed by that bastard.
Sighing in relief, the girl finally had the chance to examine her spoils from this battle.
The assassin, dressed in night gear and a cloak, looked flashy but was pathetically weak in combat.
She appeared slightly older than Yijinmo, around her twenties, with long purple hair tied high.
Her face was a standard oval shape, quite beautiful but not tall—about the same height as Yijinmo.
In terms of figure… Yijinmo was obviously the clear winner.
But what drew the most attention was the tattoo on the inner thigh.
To get a closer look, the girl reached out and parted the assassin’s leg, glimpsing a few streaks of liquid sliding down.
Before she could get closer, she faced fierce resistance.
“Wuuu wuu?!”
Seeing the stockings stuffed in the assassin’s mouth, Yijinmo hesitated but eventually helped remove them.
“Waaahhh, there’s a pervert, waaahhh—!!”
But to her surprise, the assassin immediately burst into tears, wailing that she had encountered a pervert—the crying was so heart-wrenching it would move anyone.
Looking at the tear-streaked little assassin, Yijinmo’s heart unexpectedly swelled with sympathy.
“I understand. That guy really is a pervert who enjoys humiliating decent girls, but don’t worry—you’re safe now.”
“Stop crying, stop crying, I’m here to protect you.”
“Wuuu wuu…”
Maybe because she felt understood, the assassin, overwhelmed with emotion, suddenly threw herself into Yijinmo’s embrace.
“That pervert—she actually stripped me, tore off my stockings, and gagged me!”
“And on top of that, she made me answer questions; when I couldn’t, she threatened to kill me—but how could I answer with my mouth sealed!!”
“That’s too much, wuuuuu…”
“I get it, I get it all.”
She really did understand; after all, she had been a victim of that pervert herself…
Patting the assassin’s back, it took a while before her emotions finally settled.
“Sis, to be honest, after all these years as an assassin, this is the first time I’ve been humiliated like this, wuuu.”
“Shh, it’s okay, it’s okay, I’m here to protect you. That pervert won’t find us anytime soon—we’re safe for now.”
“Wuuu, sis, you were humiliated by that pervert too?”
“Yes. Back then, I was played with just like you, even lost my virginity… That kind of scum is unbearable! She must be brought to justice!”
“That’s right, sis, that pervert has to be made to face justice! Otherwise, she’ll just hurt more people in the future!”
Though she didn’t know why, the scene suddenly turned into a complaints session against Bianhua’s atrocities between the two girls, but the outcome was good.
“Sis, you’re my lifesaver; I, Yin Wu, can never repay you in this lifetime!”
“No need to exaggerate, sis. We help each other in this world of wandering swordsmen without expecting anything in return. Against such a pervert, we must unite!”
