However, Ling Ling was still very curious about what kind of person “Lady Bai” was.
“Ling Shi” also sensed Ling Ling’s irrepressible curiosity and spoke slowly.
However, its tone shifted back to its usual cheeky manner, and it coughed twice.
“Ahem, ahem.”
“Lady Bai is quite different from you.”
“At the very least, she’s not a stone-faced person like you.”
Ling Ling, in response to Ling Shi’s assessment of her, decided to stubbornly retort:
“I just can’t be bothered to make expressions…”
“Fine, fine.”
“My dear Lord Contractor, I know you’re lazy.”
“Alright, I’ll continue.”
“Hmm… how should I put it? In the words of your era, Lady Bai is an airhead.”
“Because she often can’t take care of herself, it makes Lord Hei frequently lose his temper at her…”
“And your personality is somewhat similar to Lord Hei’s—both of you have that kind of stern face and don’t like to talk much.”
“And similarly secretly passionate…”
However, Ling Ling still felt that her personality was different from Bai’s.
She had mostly inherited her personality from her previous life.
After all, in her previous life, she was originally a somewhat taciturn person, not good at expressing her emotions, and always liked to keep things bottled up inside.
However, she was quite satisfied with her current life.
She has a sister, and friends.
She has people she cares about, and people who care about her.
Even if more troubles arise in the future, Ling Ling will unhesitatingly solve them one by one.
For her now, whoever dares to disrupt her daily life, that is a serious crime.
Death penalty!
However, the performance of those Hot Fight Academy people today was worth her attention.
She didn’t think that Hot Fight Academy would give up on targeting Gan Daiyue just because of a small spar.
Ling Ling did think about wearing an alternate identity to go snoop around Hot Fight Academy.
But…
Hot Fight Academy is located in District 6.
And the time she can act as “Bai Ye” or “Moriarty” would only be at night.
If she were to cross districts at night, it would take a very long time.
Ling Ling quickly dismissed the idea of breaking into Hot Fight Academy’s database.
Maybe the other side just simply disliked her academy; how could there be a bigger conspiracy?
Meanwhile.
Inside a black urban SUV heading toward District 6.
The red-haired spiky-headed Student Council President of Hot Fight Academy, Zha Luo, was sitting in the backseat with his nine trusted subordinates.
At this moment, Zha Luo’s expression was very displeased.
He hadn’t expected that the white-haired girl he had randomly pulled out to pick a fight with would be so strong.
Although the strength the other party finally displayed was only at the peak of B-rank.
But he, with rich combat experience, could tell that she was holding back.
Zha Luo vaguely felt that the student named Lin Lingling’s true strength was even stronger than an ordinary A-rank.
He was very unwilling.
Originally, he thought that third-year Gan Daiyue would not participate, and his subordinates’ strength was not bad either.
In the first and second years of Luter Academy, there weren’t any students reported to have particularly strong comprehensive abilities.
Even the few A-ranks within Luter Academy had abilities not oriented toward combat.
The only one he needed to be wary of was Ye Fengxue, the eldest daughter of the Ye Family.
When the SUV drove to the border of District 6, the scenery outside the window began to gradually become rough.
If the Third District is a developed city of technology, and the Seventh District is old streets full of human touch.
Then this place is simply a slum full of dangerous criminals.
Starting from the seemingly old but clean and orderly streets of the Seventh District, everything became messy.
This place is also the most chaotic area in terms of public security in all of Akasha City.
Gangs and Supernatural Ability criminals run rampant everywhere.
The Akasha City Government once considered a large-scale crackdown on the criminal organizations here.
But the process encountered obstacles at every level.
Even some S-Class Superhumans born in District 6 and raised in gangs stepped forward to stop that large-scale suppression.
In the end, the suppression operation ended hastily.
And the Akasha City Government reached a cooperation with the largest gang organization in District 6.
The requirement of the cooperation was that as long as criminals in District 6 did not randomly roam out, gang wars did not spread to other areas with normal public security, and normal tax tasks were completed, that was enough.
For the rest, the city government would grant the gangs maximum autonomy.
And so, District 6 became a true lawless zone.
And it was precisely this lawless land that cultivated the very aggressive temperament of Hot Fight Academy students.
After all, without fighting, survival is impossible.
The SUV continued driving deeper into District 6.
Zha Luo propped his hand against the window with one hand, resting his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
Before long, the SUV slowly drove into a gray building whose exterior was covered in graffiti.
Zha Luo also opened his eyes, got out of the car, and walked toward the inside of the building.
This was one of the Zha Luo family’s private properties.
On the surface, it was an ordinary fighting gym.
But in reality, it was a venue specifically for underground gray-market transactions.
It was also a gray transfer station between the underground forces of District 6 and the academy.
He pushed open the iron door.
As soon as he entered, a gray-haired man wearing a pitch-black jacket greeted Zha Luo.
“Yo, Master Zha Luo, how did the meeting in District 7 go?”
“Shut up, Ba Luo’er.”
Zha Luo sat down on a sofa, casually grabbed a bottle of soda, and started drinking.
“It was ruined by some white-haired girl who came out of nowhere.”
“Oh?”
Ba Luo’er looked at Zha Luo with curiosity, then also casually picked up a can of cold beer and took a sip.
“So, young master, what do you plan to do about this Ability Festival?”
Zha Luo said in a frustrated tone:
“What else can I do?”
“I’ll have to accept that mysterious woman’s proposal.”
Ba Luo’er put away his curious expression and said calmly:
“Young master, we still don’t know what background that mysterious woman has.”
“And I heard she’s from that mysterious big organization ‘Cradle.'”
“A major force of that level actually set its sights on us ‘small-time punks’ from District 6.”
“That is no ordinary matter.”
Regarding this matter, Zha Luo naturally also understood the pros and cons.
But he believed that establishing authority at this Ability Festival was not only to regain his own face, but also to add a bargaining chip for himself as the family heir.
After all, he was not as good as his older brother.
If he did nothing, he would lose the inheritance rights to the entire gang.
Ba Luo’er looked at the still contemplative young master, feeling a mix of emotions in his heart.
He had been with the Delia family for many years.
He had always been loyal to the Delia family.
He was also well aware of the two young masters’ struggle for the family inheritance.
The head of the family had not yet made a clear stance.
But he still sincerely hoped that the two young masters could cooperate and govern the Delia family together, rather than engaging in internal strife.
What made him even more suspicious was that “Cradle” organization.
He didn’t think this organization was any kind of good egg.
He believed even less that they would truly, as previously stated, help the Delia family stabilize the situation in District 6 for free.
