Chapter 231 Sneaky
Chapter 231 Sneaky
After refining five bottles of the Mind-Concentrating Potion, Xi Yu quickly packed up the decomposition device and potion materials, put them in her backpack, and took them downstairs.
Ruan Zilu and Wei Zi were still asleep in the room. Xi Yu did not disturb them. After hiding her backpack, she went out again.
Since she still had some time, she wanted to try out the virtual spaceship.
Whenever she pilots a virtual spaceship, she feels like she's back in the future. She used to often pilot her spaceship across the stars.
As she walked, she suddenly stopped and unconsciously frowned.
Two people were talking over the corner in the passageway ahead. Their voices were low, but Xi Yu's keen hearing allowed her to hear them clearly.
The people speaking at the front were Lieutenant Colonel Yu Hao and Lieutenant Colonel Ma Yangrui.
"Principal Luo Hong went to the First Legion? That's quite rare. What happened?"
Lieutenant Colonel Ma Yangrui asked in a slightly loud voice.
"It seems the First Legion's mission failed, and someone was seriously injured. Perhaps it was someone Principal Luo Hong knew. It's rare to see Principal Luo Hong so anxious."
Lieutenant Colonel Yu Hao responded in a deep voice.
"Is that so?" Lieutenant Colonel Ma Yangrui paused, seemingly surprised by the failure of the First Legion's mission.
Xi Yu paused, not hearing what Lieutenant Colonel Yu Hao said next; her attention was focused on the words "mission failed."
Yan San's mission failed? And he was seriously injured?
While she was lost in thought, Lieutenant Colonel Yu Hao and Lieutenant Colonel Ma Yangrui had already walked far away, and their conversation could no longer be heard.
After much deliberation, Xi Yu finally decided to contact Yan San via the terminal.
This was the first time she had taken the initiative to contact the other party, but unfortunately, she could not send the message because Yan San's terminal was not turned on.
She frowned and tried to contact Fu Baili again.
However, it didn't go very smoothly. The message was indeed sent, but Fu Baili didn't answer it.
Her heart skipped a beat, and a bad feeling welled up inside her.
She seemed a little absent-minded all day. While practicing her fighting skills, the observant Ruan Zilu noticed her unusual behavior and couldn't help but ask, "Xiaoyu, are you alright? Why are you always spacing out?"
"It's nothing," Xi Yu shook her head.
"That's good. Anyway, Instructor Yan isn't here, so it's okay for you to slack off a bit." Ruan Zilu said innocently, thinking that it was fine for Xi Yu to be lazy since the strict Instructor Yan San wasn't around.
But Ruan Zilu's words made Xi Yu momentarily lose her composure.
She frowned deeply, a sense of annoyance rising within her.
After finishing her evening practice, Xi Yu went to bed early, which was unusual for her. Ruan Zilu was worried that she was not feeling well, so she didn't dare to disturb her and let her rest well.
In the middle of the night, after Wei Zi and Ruan Zilu had both fallen asleep, Xi Yu gently opened her eyes.
She lightly rolled out of bed, quickly changed into a black vest and black leggings, and then grabbed two vials of medicine and put them in her pocket.
The whole process took less than thirty seconds.
Instead of opening the door and going out, Xi Yu quietly walked out onto the balcony and jumped off decisively.
This kind of sneaky behavior at night was something Xi Yu often did back in City A. She was always very careful to avoid her mother discovering her secrets.
I never expected that even in the capital city, people would still do things like jumping off balconies in the middle of the night.
She planned to sneak into the First Legion under cover of darkness to investigate. If Yan San was seriously injured, the two healing potions she had specially concocted would come in handy. If he was alright... then she could just pretend she was out for a stroll in the middle of the night!
