Chapter 71 Sylvie's Crow
"It's better for us to live together. I have a great reputation in the outside world. If we get married, it will definitely be big news. If we live separately, the paparazzi will definitely notice . Then not only will the Osborne family suspect me, but the old nobles will also suspect us.
But we can sleep in separate rooms! It’s really no big deal.” Flora said.
Su Ming turned his head to ask Xia Xiaoyu's opinion, but saw that Xia Xiaoyu was seriously lost in thought.
After a while, Xia Xiaoyu raised her head and agreed, "Okay, I'll stay here too, to prevent her from doing anything bad to you."
Su Ming sighed and shrugged to indicate that he didn't care. In fact, he had already expected Xia Xiaoyu to make such a request.
Xia Xiaoyu's mouth curled up slightly, and a cunning look flashed across her face - the plan worked!
Her plan succeeded. Since she couldn't stop Su Ming from helping Flora, she would use the opponent's strength to her advantage and join in living with Flora if he had no choice!
Haha, living together may seem like a small step, but it’s actually a big step!
If you want to get a glimpse into a person's inner character and life preferences, living together is the best choice.
If she directly proposed to live with him, Su Ming would most likely refuse, as can be seen from the fact that he always had two separate rooms when staying in a hotel.
But now, she moved in under the pretext of "monitoring Flora", so Su Ming wouldn't mind.
"Then...I will agree to her?" Su Ming asked tentatively.
Xia Xiaoyu nodded slightly, and immediately reminded: "Don't forget, she was still using you before!"
Su Ming nodded perfunctorily, turned to Flora and said, "Okay, it's settled."
"Really?!" Flora couldn't hide the excitement on her face.
"Yeah." Su Ming nodded.
"Well... let's not delay! A noble is going to hold a banquet in a few days. Why don't you go with me as my male companion?"
Su Ming raised his eyebrows: "Is it the Ye family?"
"How do you know?" Flora asked puzzled.
"I received an invitation, too."
"Sure enough, I didn't expect them to act so quickly. I said they would win you over." Flora frowned and thought for a while, then said, "Then let's separate for now. You can see what they want you to do first."
"It's decided." Su Ming finished his meal in a few bites, stood up and said, "I have to leave first. The director asked me to work overtime. She also asked you to go to the Investigation Bureau tomorrow to cooperate with Alice in the experiment."
"How did she know you were with me?" Flora frowned.
"I don't know, but I guess she knows your true identity as well."
"Why!" Flora was shocked.
Su Ming glanced at the other party and said lightly: "Intuition, she could have sent text messages separately, but she only sent me one message, asking me to tell you to go to work tomorrow. This is obviously telling us that she saw us having dinner together.
Since we were seen eating, it was natural that she heard what we said just now.
But the minister could have pretended not to know, but she didn't want to pretend, so I don't think the minister had any ill intentions.
You can try to test her tomorrow."
Flora did not calm down at all after Su Ming's analysis. She looked flustered and felt uneasy.
Su Ming glanced at Flora, sighed helplessly, and looked sideways at Xia Xiaoyu: "Don't you know that the minister has the ability to monitor other people remotely?"
"I don't really understand this either, because the minister rarely takes action, and her abilities are not recorded in the Bureau's files. It's a special case."
If Xia Xiaoyu wanted to know Sylvie's special abilities, she just had to stay by her side.
But Xia Xiaoyu had no motive to do so before, so she did not deliberately investigate Sylvie.
Moreover, Sylvie never takes action normally, and when she does, the situation is often very dangerous, so Xia Xiaoyu is rarely present.
Therefore, until now, Xia Xiaoyu still doesn't know about Sylvie's special abilities. She has only heard rumors about her.
Sylvie's superpowers should be related to vampires... perhaps they are superpowers with vampire characteristics.
Su Ming went downstairs and just left Flora's apartment when he found a few crows circling above his head. The crows circled quietly above Su Ming's head and then flew away in the same direction.
Su Ming looked at the outlines of the flock of birds disappearing into the night sky, his expression thoughtful.
"What are you thinking about?" Xia Xiaoyu asked.
"Nothing." Su Ming shook his head.
He guessed that the group of crows just now was Sylvie's way of monitoring him and Flora, but that was not what he cared about. What he cared about was his super intuition.
Last time he was monitored by Xia Xiaoyu when he was sleeping, and this time he was monitored by crows. Super Intuition didn't react at all, but after seeing the crows, he thought that these crows should be Sylvie's spies, which involves the rules of super intuition.
Super intuition must have rules...but under what circumstances will it be activated?
Last time in the Stairs of Fear, he relied on his super intuition to overcome the limit of fear. The hallucinations he had at that time are still vivid in his mind.
In the end, what pulled him over the limit was a person who looked exactly like him. Su Ming felt that it was not a simple illusion, but some kind of omen.
Thinking back carefully, he seemed to be walking in a dark cave at that time, relying entirely on the invisible silk thread tied to his finger to guide the direction. The invisible silk thread should symbolize super intuition.
And when he finally faced the limit of fear, the end of the silk thread in his hand was tied to another self. Is this a metaphor for something?
While Su Ming was still thinking, a black car came speeding and stopped in front of Su Ming. The car's body was covered with mud and had many scratches. It looked like it had just come out of a car accident scene.
The car window was rolled down, a few specks of mud fell off the glass, and a handsome face appeared in front of Su Ming.
The man in front of me looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. Judging from his skin condition, he was very young, but his eyes and expression were like a corporate slave who had been polished by society for a long time and had completely adapted to being exploited by his superiors.
The other person's eyes seemed to be filled with words like "I am a serious person", "I love my work", "I'm exhausted" and so on.
"Su Ming? I'm Jiang Yichuang, your captain." the man said.
"Captain?" Su Ming was stunned for a moment, "So young!"
"I'm not young anymore. I'm already 25 years old." Jiang Yichuang said expressionlessly.
"No wonder there's a sense of disharmony. It turns out that your appearance doesn't match your actual age." Su Ming thought he was making a joke, but it didn't seem to lighten the mood.
Jiang Yichuan sighed, looking quite helpless.
He tilted his head towards Su Ming, motioning him to get in the car.
Su Ming's intuition told him that this captain was not easy to get along with. He gave Su Ming a cold feeling, like a living corpse.
"Captain, what are we doing with this temporary overtime?"
"Go investigate the gangs. The area in the north is all the territory of the Triads. Five years ago, the higher-ups issued a policy to build a new city on Dongyang Island.
During these five years, the alliance only built the city center. The construction conditions outside the city center were very poor, and it was all gangs who helped maintain order.
But there have been some problems with the gangs recently. People have been dying frequently in the Triad area recently, and it’s clear that they weren’t done by humans.”
