Special Meeting
Chapter 274 Special Meeting
On her way to Ji Xinyue's villa, Lu Jinzhao received a message from Tian Lei, who had also received an invitation. Tian Lei asked Lu Jinzhao if she could travel with her, as she didn't want to meet so many strangers alone.
"Stranger?" Lu Jinzhao asked, somewhat puzzled, as he picked up Tianlei in his car. "You should have seen those top-tier fighters before, right?"
Surely we haven't seen a single one?
"Uh..." Tian Lei hesitated for a moment: "I didn't meet with them privately after leaving the platform, so I guess they're strangers?"
Wow, that's a very strict judgment.
"And even on the platform, I've only seen two."
The frequency of special-grade members participating in the platform will be greatly reduced. The number of times they participate in the Death Platform in previous years is very small. Most of the time, they actually participate in the Level 1 Platform. Tian Lei once traveled with the special-grade members of Yuncheng in the Level 1 Platform.
"Oh? Which two have you met?"
Lu Jinzhao was curious about what kind of image the Special Grade had seen in Tian Lei's heart.
"Shen Qingwu and Pei Zheng."
“You definitely know Shen Qingwu, she’s the Qingwu on the forum.” Tian Lei’s tone was still relatively normal when she talked about Shen Qingwu: “She’s a good person who can still maintain basic principles in the platform.”
Is this really the principled good person that Tian Lei rated?
This "good guy" card is quite valuable.
"As for Pei Zheng." When she mentioned another name, Tian Lei's tone changed noticeably, becoming hesitant, as if she was worried about something.
I don't like that woman.
After hesitating for a moment, that's all she said.
"Can you tell me why? Is her personality so annoying?" Lu Jinzhao chose to press for an answer. She knew that Tian Lei's personality sometimes wasn't that she didn't want to talk, but that she habitually hid her thoughts. If she pressed for an answer, she could still get one.
“Personality counts too.” Tian Lei tilted her head slightly and thought for a moment: “She’s too hypocritical. She’s always unwilling to tell the truth. It’s dangerous to be around her.”
In Tian Lei's opinion, among the few remaining special-grade individuals in Yuncheng, this was the person she least wanted to have any contact with.
She prayed that she wouldn't end up on the same platform as Pei Zheng again.
How did she insult you?
Lu Jinzhao's smile paused slightly, then she pretended nothing had happened and continued Tian Lei's words, "That sounds quite dangerous."
“That’s right.” Tian Lei nodded vigorously twice.
Ask her if she thinks you're dangerous.
Lu Jinzhao almost rolled her eyes. Ignoring the sheepskin that was wriggling and suddenly starting to frantically seek attention, she asked while looking at the road, "What is Pei Zheng's destiny?"
She had gathered some information about special-grade individuals, but she couldn't find much information about this special-grade individual named Pei Zheng.
"She is a medium."
"She became a special class passenger a little earlier than you. It is said that before she became a passenger, she often went to some remote mountains and forests and did not have much contact with people. Few people knew her."
“In Yuncheng, there’s no such thing as passengers having to form cliques. Nobody bothered Pei Zheng. If we hadn’t teamed up once, I wouldn’t have known what her destiny was.”
Tian Lei had a strong desire to investigate the other passengers in Yuncheng. She was eager to know the background of everyone who might be in her team. As for Pei Zheng, she obviously didn't know much either.
However, it sounds like Pei Zheng's "lack of social interaction" is completely different from Tian Lei's.
The car quickly arrived in front of Ji Xinyue's door. Several cars had already parked in the parking area on the first floor, indicating that some people had arrived very early.
She had just gotten out of the car when the fortune teller came over.
"Ha, this time I didn't miscalculate, not a second off!" The woman I had seen on screen before looked at Lu Jinzhao triumphantly: "How about it?" "Looks like I won't be going over time anytime soon?" Lu Jinzhao smiled as he grasped the fortune teller's outstretched hand.
Tian Lei followed behind her and said, "Hello, senior."
“Tian Lei? I remember we talked online, don’t be so formal.” The fortune teller withdrew his hand and looked at Tian Lei, recognizing the passenger who was famous back in Level 1 at a glance.
"Okay, okay." Tian Lei nodded repeatedly, but she didn't look relaxed at all.
She had no intention of shaking hands with the fortune teller, and the fortune teller, knowing her personality, did not make things difficult for her.
"Let's go. Qingwu and Zhong Yuqiu have arrived. Pei Zheng and Xu Yan are the only ones left to join us."
Ji Xinyue, Shen Qingwu, Shen Suanzi, Lu Jinzhao, Tian Lei, Zhong Yuqiu, Pei Zheng, Xu Yan.
These are all the special-grade monsters that are still alive in Cloud City.
This is more than the "two to three" that Lu Jinzhao had heard before.
Following the fortune teller into the villa he had visited before, Lu Jinzhao turned into the reception room and saw several top-level experts chatting idly.
She had met Ji Xinyue before, and she had heard of Shen Qingwu, but this was the first time she had met her in person.
Before meeting him, Lu Jinzhao had already wondered what Shen Qingwu would look like. But when they met, she found that he was a person with regular features and a very upright demeanor, who seemed quite reliable.
Most importantly, it was her eyes. When she heard the noise and looked towards the door, the look in her eyes reminded Lu Jinzhao of her teachers at school.
His underlying tone carried a hint of authority, but his expression was more one of tolerance and gentleness.
Shen Qingwu stood up nimbly, like a tall, straight bamboo, and asked, "These two must be Lu Jinzhao and Tian Lei, right?"
The tone is a bit low, but the pronunciation is clear, and the tone is very much like a teacher's.
Lu, still a college student, feels like she's met her nemesis.
“That’s right.” The fortune teller nodded. “Sit wherever you like, and wait for the last two.”
Lu Jinzhao simply picked a seat randomly, while Tian Lei sat down right next to her.
There was another person in the room whom Lu Jinzhao had never seen before: Zhong Yuqiu.
Judging by her appearance alone, she was definitely the youngest person present.
She was also looking at Lu Jinzhao with curious eyes. When they met eyes, she didn't look away, but instead gave him a slightly friendly smile.
Her personality seems pretty good?
Not long after, the remaining two arrived.
The weather wasn't cold at all today, but Pei Zheng was still wrapped up tightly. Lu Jinzhao could see that her exposed skin was covered with black lines, which was probably related to her identity as a medium.
Xu Yan was the oldest-looking woman, with neat short hair and sharp eyes.
"Alright, everyone's here."
The fortune teller stood up from his seat and walked to the center: "Then, shall we begin today's special meeting?"
"Speaking of which, the last time we had a meeting like this was when I had just become a special-grade officer. Time really flies."
She first went off-topic for a moment, then quickly got back to the point:
"I conducted an on-site investigation regarding Anning City."
"It can be confirmed that the station in that city has indeed gone out of control, and the supernatural has begun to spread in reality."
