Chapter 1151: Take Me With You? (Bonus Chapter)
Ye Xingxuan was stunned. But she didn't have one of those either, right?
So she quietly asked, "Sisters, did any of you bring a hairpin?"
Many of the girls shook their heads, looking confused. Why was Xingxuan asking about that?
Could she pick locks?
Just then, Zhou Yuqing weakly spoke up!
(・᷄~・᷅)ノ "I... I have two in my hair!"
Ye Xingxuan's eyes lit up: "Great! Yuqing, don't move, okay?"
Jiangnan, hearing everything clearly through the Small Whip, quickly controlled a vine tendril to wrap around Zhou Yuqing!
Zhou Yuqing's eyes went wide as she watched in terror as the vine crawled up her arm and onto her head!
This... this was from Brother Jiangnan?
In no time at all, the vine root retracted, bringing back a hairpin!
It also gently patted Zhou Yuqing's head as a comforting gesture, a full-on head pat!
Zhou Yuqing's pretty face flushed red.
As long as she could help Brother Jiangnan, that was enough!
Jiangnan stared at the hairpin and grinned slyly.
A mere Spirit-Binding Handcuff—how could that stump me?
The vine tendril moved as flexibly as fingers, bending the hairpin into a special shape and inserting it into the lock!
In less than a fart's time, all thirty-eight Spirit-Binding Handcuffs were unlocked!
Even the Spirit-Binding Iron Lock was completely undone!
But there was still the Spirit-Binding Pearl in his stomach. Jiangnan slightly opened his mouth, and the slender vine tendril extended down his esophagus into his stomach.
It rolled out the Spirit-Binding Pearl, which Jiangnan bit and crushed!
His spiritual power and abilities were fully restored!
Looking at the silk wrapped around him, Jiangnan tensed his muscles, veins bulging. With a series of *bang bang bang* sounds, he tore the silk apart!
He stood up from the ground and stretched lazily!
With a teleport, he vanished from the cell and appeared at the stronghold!
A Black Hood leaning against the wall scrolling on his phone seemed to sense something and looked up!
Jiangnan grinned and raised a hand in greeting.
(๑¯ٹ¯ิ)ノ "Yo~"
Then, hands behind his back, he swaggered toward the campfire not far away!
The Black Hood's eyes bulged, and his phone dropped to the ground!
Σ(›ଵ口ଵ‹||)
Holy crap!
Th-that... that's Jiangnan?
He got out? And he's greeting me arrogantly?
Hiss~
Startled, the Black Hood turned around and hurried off to get the others!
At the campfire, a large pot of instant noodles was boiling!
It seemed that after Huayin caught Jiangnan, Fulei and 001 had also come over.
The other stronghold had subordinates guarding it, with only one of 001's arms left to watch the heart.
At the moment, the four of them were holding bowls and chopsticks, slurping down the noodles!
Fulei frowned: "Jiangnan won't talk? Then we'll have to send someone to contact the Academy!"
"Now that we have Jiangnan in hand, Hua Xia won't just sit by and do nothing!"
Huayin wondered: "One thing bothers me. Why hasn't the Academy made any move since the students got into trouble?"
Milando said smugly: "Overconfident, I guess? After all, they sent Jiangnan along this time, but they never imagined that Jiangnan would also fall into my hands!"
001 nodded with satisfaction: "I knew I could count on my Cowboy! But isn't it a bit too hasty to confront Hua Xia like this?"
"We should catch a few more hostages! And we absolutely must keep a close eye on Jiangnan—can't let him escape!"
Milando patted his chest: "My silk is tough as hell, no way Jiangnan can break it! Rest assured!"
Just then, Jiangnan, hands behind his back, walked up to the pot!
He pulled out his rice bowl, scooped up two forkfuls of noodles, and fished all the poached eggs from the pot into his own bowl!
Sitting down nonchalantly, he started slurping away!
(๐・᷄ཀ・᷅)⋋♨ "Not enough water, huh? A bit salty?"
At that moment, the four people by the campfire were all frozen in place!
(유口유(•'Д'•(Ŏ◊Ŏ(ŐдŐ✿)
Eyes wide as they stared at Jiangnan slurping noodles!
Milando's bowl dropped to the ground!
Huayin coughed violently, two strands of uneaten noodles shooting out of her nostrils and hanging there!
(˃᷄།~།˂᷅๑)
Fulei and 001 were utterly stunned!
"So this is the guy you two said you caught?"
In a flash, Jiangnan finished a bowl of noodles and burped!
He handed his bowl to Milando: "Hey, I'm still hungry. Give me another bowl!"
Milando: !!!
"H-how did you get out?"
They had bound his spiritual power, used a Spirit-Binding Pearl, handcuffs, chains, and silk!
Wrapped him left and right, three times over—how did he just waltz out like nothing and start eating?!
And he ate all the poached eggs!
Jiangnan shrugged: ʅ(・´‸・`)ʃ "It's easy if you have hands, right? You guys didn't even bring me any food, so I had to rely on myself!"
He then helped himself to another bowl.
[From Huayin: Resentment +1000!]
You're supposed to be our prisoner!
Do you have to be so cocky—coming out, stealing our food, eating right in front of us?!
That's a slap in the face!
You clearly don't take us seriously at all!
Seeing all the Black Hoods staring at him, Jiangnan raised an eyebrow.
"Hey, hey, hey—when are you going out to catch students? Take me with you, okay?"
"Being locked up like this is so boring! I've got great potential as a bad guy!"
"Take me along, and I'll grab three to five thousand of them in one go! Give me a Black Hood!"
Fulei: ???
"What? What did you say? You want to come with us to catch students?"
"And you think we haven't caught enough?"
Can you be any more arrogant?!
Feeling that the enemies are too unchallenging, you kindly decide to join them and help catch students?
To increase the difficulty?
You're too much!
[From Fulei: Resentment +1000!]
"You're going too far!"
Jiangnan pointed at himself in shock: "How am I going too far? I'm just being nice!"
"Don't be so petty! Just take me with you, okay?"
As he spoke, his gaze fell on 001, who was missing an arm.
He stepped forward and threw an arm around 001's shoulder: "Right, Brother Ling Feng? Help me convince them!"
"How'd you lose your arm again? Oh, I know—you must have deliberately taken it off to play the bad guy better, right? You're so dedicated!"
001: ???
[From Cindy: Resentment +1000!]
Jiangnan: (๑•̌~•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣
Fulei? Cindy?
These are all foreign names?
Wait! The name Cindy appeared once before back at the Academy, right?
Just then, a group of Black Hoods came rushing over!
"Boss! Jiangnan escaped! He..."
Milando's face darkened.
(̿▀̿̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿̿)̄ "I can see that! He's already here eating poached eggs!"
[From Milando: Resentment +1000!]
Jiangnan: !!!
Who is Milando? There's no instructor with that name, right?
Damn it!
Could they really be here to steal the rabbit? Are they real bad guys?
Not Brother Hu and the others acting?
Thinking back to all the strange behavior earlier, plus so many Black Hoods...
Jiangnan swallowed hard.
I'm screwed! I've run into real bad guys!
Not only did I go along with their "performance" and help catch a bunch of students, I even asked to join them in catching more!
At this moment, Jiangnan's heart was racing with a herd of wild horses.
Damn it! What a coincidence!
You guys pick the exact time we're sending people to play bad guys to come and make a guest appearance?
Now the Rabbit-Stealing Alliance has all these students hostage... hiss~
And these few obviously have some skills. What to do?
His current situation was very awkward!
If he turned hostile directly, those students would be his leverage.
Even though he was strong enough, he wasn't confident he could rescue everyone without harm.
Jiangnan's mind raced, and he suddenly shouted angrily!
(ꐦ°᷄口°᷅)☛ "What's the big deal if I ate some noodles? If it weren't for me, would you have caught these students so easily?"
"You're just kicking me to the curb after I've served my purpose! What's the harm in letting me have a little fun playing the bad guy?"
Huayin ground her teeth: "Do you think we're playing games with you here?"
Jiangnan scratched his head: "Otherwise? Didn't the instructors say they'd play bad guys, catch students, and test their reactions in life-or-death situations?"
"Take me with you, and I'll definitely catch them seriously! Brother Feng! Say something for me, will you?"
He shook 001's shoulder and winked.
(๑◔◡◔ิ๑)(̿▀̿~▀̿̿)̄
At that moment, Fulei and the others exchanged glances and suddenly understood!
So that's how it is!
