nYun Yi could not help but be suspicious of Yun Jian.

nSince he went back home the last time, Xiao Jian had been acting strangely.

nThere was the phone call in Xinjiang Town’s shop and her inexplicable skills, too.

nIf it were not for Yun Jian’s appearance remaining the same, he questioned if she had switched souls with someone else.

nUltimately, Yun Yi chose to hold himself back from asking.

nHe chose to believe in his younger sister. Even if something had changed, he believed that Xiao Jian would tell him one day!

nLikewise, Yun Jian realized Yun Yi’s change but she did not point it out, also deciding to skip explaining.

nShe had nothing to say, honestly, as she could not explain it to Yun Yi.

nIf she had not done something just now, were they just going to wait for their doom?

nThis was not her.

nYun Jian turned around to speak to Xu Haozhe, “The Dragon Head Gang will take care of the sniper’s body right?”

n“Huh… Mm, yes.” Xu Haozhe replied hastily after a beat, still caught in a stupor.

n“Mm.” Yun Jian nodded with a hum and smiled. “But it looks like we have no luck to enjoy this feast.”

nXu Haozhe and Yun Yi were baffled again.

n“What do you mean?” Xu Haozhe asked in a trance.

n“Someone called the police. And they’re here, downstairs,” answered Yun Jian.

n“How do you know?!” It came out as an exclamation from Xu Haozhe.

nThey did not hear anything from downstairs and Yun Jian was here with them. How could she know what was happening there?

n“I heard it.” Yun Jian smiled and continued. “Follow me, we’ll leave through the backdoor.”

nShe then led the way.

nUp till they had left through the four-star hotel’s backdoor, Xu Haozhe and Yun Yi were both still stupefied.

nCountless questions bubbled within them, the most vital one being why was Yun Jian so familiar with the backdoor here.

nXu Haozhe was a regular guest here but even he did not know where the backdoor of the hotel was. Why was Yun Jian clear about the route?

nIf Yun Jian knew of their thoughts, she would grin without a doubt.

nThe reason she was excellent with investigations, reverse tracking, and hiding was due to her strong sense of observation. For example, how would she hide, escape, or counter kill someone if she encountered an emergency?

nThese were the necessary courses of a secret agent.

nThat was why she had analyzed her surroundings once she stepped foot into the hotel just now.

n…

nThe trio did not expect to run into an incident earlier but Xu Haozhe had still insisted to foot the bill for their meals.

nAfter lunch, Yun Jian took the bus back home.

nShe actually had nothing much to do in Longmen City. Some things were not urgent, like the business she proposed to set up earlier.

nYun Jian arrived home around three-thirty in the afternoon and saw Li Xiangyi standing dumbly at her door.

nPuzzled, Yun Jian went to him.

n“Wow, Yun Jian, you’re finally home! After some painstaking effort, I found your house only to hear your neighbor say that your entire family isn’t around! I’ve been waiting for you for close to half an hour now!” Li Xiangyi could not help grumbling when he saw Yun Jian.

nNo one home? Qin Yirou was not home?

nYun Jian was slightly at a loss.

n“What’s up?” Yun Jian asked, looking at Li Xiangyi before her.

n“Oh, so the basketball team plans to throw you a mini welcoming party tonight. It’s at the newly opened bar in town. I’m here to inform you.”
