Chapter 856: I Want To...
He would need to test this ability's specific effects in actual combat to know for sure. Lin Qiye glanced at the time and withdrew his consciousness from the Asylum of the Gods, returning to his physical body.
The moment he opened his eyes, a sneaky figure standing by his bedside raised an arrow in her hand and thrust it lightly toward Lin Qiye's chest.
Lin Qiye froze.
"Jialan, what are you doing?" he asked in confusion.
The sneaky figure froze in place.
"..." Jialan's mouth twitched uncontrollably.
She had收敛ed her presence to the utmost degree and had silently crept to the bedside while Lin Qiye slept, but who could have guessed that just as she was about to succeed, Lin Qiye woke up on his own?!
This put Jialan in an awkward position.
"Um..." Jialan held the arrow in her hand, unable to advance or retreat.
"Jialan, what's that in your hand?"
Lin Qiye saw the arrow in Jialan's hand and confusion flickered in his eyes. He reached out主动ly, reaching for the arrow...
Slap!
Jialan猛地伸出one hand and grabbed Lin Qiye's wrist.
Lin Qiye's hand was caught by Jialan,茫然无措.
"Don't move!" Jialan's face was flushed crimson in the darkness.
Under the moonlight filtering through the curtains, Jialan低下头看着Lin Qiye那若隐若现的脸庞，又看了眼自己手中的爱神之箭，一颗心几乎要跳出胸膛，她的眼中浮现出决然之色！
She had already borrowed the Cupid's Arrow, the atmosphere was perfect—if she didn't fire this arrow tonight, not only would she have wasted all her effort, but she would also never be able to face Lin Qiye again.
If she backed down now, there might never be another chance...
If she didn't give this "钢铁直男" some momentum, his wooden head might never开窍!
My fate is my own, not Heaven's!
For the sake of this old maid's后半生的幸福,今天拼了！
Jialan深吸一口气，身形猛地翻到了床上，压在了Lin Qiye的腰部，一只手攥着Lin Qiye的手腕，另一只手高高举起手中的爱神之箭，猛地刺向Lin Qiye的胸膛！
This sudden movement startled Lin Qiye.下意识地，他抬起另一只手，闪电般地抓向黑暗中的那枚羽箭。
Two palms simultaneously grabbed the arrow shaft. Under the struggle between two forces, the heart-shaped arrowhead stopped trembling at Lin Qiye's chest.
However, Jialan's strength was simply too great. Even Lin Qiye couldn't match her directly. As they wrestled, the heart-shaped arrowhead slowly but steadily advanced toward Lin Qiye's chest.
"Jialan... what do you want to do?" Lin Qiye咽了口唾沫，忍不住问道。
"I want..."
Jialan披着一袭深蓝色汉袍，骑在Lin Qiye的身上，用尽全力将手中的爱心羽箭刺向Lin Qiye，这一刻她仿佛不再是【夜幕】小队的Jialan，而是一位不向命运低头的勇敢斗士！
Bang--!!
Under the fierce struggle, the bed beneath Lin Qiye collapsed with a crash. Both of them fell to the ground, wood splinters flying everywhere.
A flash of light passed through Jialan's eyes. She instantly transferred her 【不朽】 to the Cupid's Arrow in her hand, breaking free from Lin Qiye's grip. The arrow firmly pierced into his chest.
The heart-shaped arrow turned into a wisp of pink light and vanished.
Lin Qiye stood frozen in place.
The hazy moonlight染黑了昏暗的房屋，被子的碎绒如雪花般纷纷扬扬的落下，满地木屑之中，Jialan in her深蓝色汉袍 sat on Lin Qiye,喘息着看着身下的Lin Qiye，两人就这么对视。
Lin Qiye看着Jialan那张满是倔强，又通红熟透的脸庞，不知为何，心中升起了一股别样的感觉......
"What happened?"
"不知道，刚刚听到隔壁有爆炸声！"
"What? Could there be an enemy attack?"
"Quick! Let's go check!"
"..."
Outside in the corridor, the instructors'嘈杂的声音接连响起.下一刻，Lin Qiye房间的大门便被教官一脚踢开！
Bang--!!
With their weapons ready and murder in their eyes, the instructors rushed in—only to freeze like stone statues when they saw the strangely positioned Jialan and Lin Qiye in the dim room, along with the bed frame fragments scattered across the floor.
Jialan: ...
Lin Qiye: ...
...
Shangjing City.
A plane缓缓降落. Zuo Qing披着一袭暗红色的斗篷，腰间挎着 Straight Blade，面无表情地穿行在 Night Watch 总部的廊道之间.
"Left Commander."
"Left Commander, hello."
"..."
The headquarters staff见Zuo Qing回来，纷纷主动问好，但后者却只是微微点头，表情没有丝毫变化.
"Hey? What's wrong with Left Commander? She looks like she's in a bad mood?"
"Didn't Left Commander just come back from Jialin Pass?"
"Could it be about the Mask Squad?"
"Mask Squad? What happened?"
"You haven't heard? All members of the Mask Squad have been missing for over a week... No news whatsoever. Even with all our resources, we can't find them. It's like they've vanished from the face of the earth."
"..."
Night Watch Headquarters, Commander's Office.
Zuo Qing推开办公室的大门，平静地走入其中.
In front of the desk, 陈墨玉早就准备好了几份文件候在一旁，见Zuo Qing回来，立刻表情肃穆地开口：
"Left Commander, the results from the Technical Department's analysis of the Mask Squad's phone signals are out."
"Oh?" Zuo Qing said coolly. "What are the results?"
"...We couldn't find them." 陈墨玉 said with some regret. "The last time we detected the Mask Squad's signal was in Ningchang County on the edge of Hainan, but after 3:42 PM that day, their signals disappeared simultaneously."
"What about the surveillance video trails?"
"Same thing. After the Mask Squad arrived at the airport, they directly took a car to Ningchang County. Once they got there, no surveillance camera caught sight of them again." 陈墨玉补充道，"The local Night Watch team said they never saw the Mask Squad either. The search team we sent still hasn't found any trace of them..."
Zuo Qing缓缓走到窗边，背对着办公室，闭上了眼睛.
"Left Commander, should we proceed with..."
"墨玉."
Zuo Qing打断陈墨玉的话，"你跟着我......多久了？"
陈墨玉一怔.
"四年了。" 陈墨玉回答，"当年您还是 Night Watch 的副司令的时候，我就跟在您身边了。"
"四年......"
Zuo Qing深吸一口气，缓缓睁开眼眸，眼眸中浮现出一抹彻骨的寒冷，"四年，我就培养出了你这么个东西？"
