Chapter 37: A Careless Rorschach?
"Don't get me wrong, I have nothing to do with the Gentlemen's Club. If I really had any ill will towards you, it would be the Seventh Gentleman who came directly to your door. I think we should be able to reach a consensus on this point, right?" In order to prevent Zhang Xiaodao from having a stress reaction, Rorschach spoke almost without pause.

"Are you also a replacer?" Zhang Xiaodao's eyes were full of shock.

Strictly speaking, she is not a new replacer, and she once had a master who was a senior replacer.

So she knew very well that although the number of replacers was increasing, they were still rare, at least not everywhere.

She never expected that Rorschach, who lived downstairs from her, was also a Displacer!
"It wasn't originally, but it became like this after yesterday." Rorschach spread his hands.

"You mean... you were accidentally awakened because you met Gao Tianlin yesterday?" Zhang Xiaodao asked in a strange tone.

This is too much of a coincidence.

"I know this sounds a bit too coincidental, but this is the truth. Before yesterday, I didn't even know there was such a group as Displacers in the world." Rorschach took a sip of Coke and continued, "Of course, I would never have thought that the neighbor living upstairs from me would be so secretive."

"Hidden away? You should be called a stray dog." Zhang Xiaodao looked dejected.

"Anyway, I can become a Replacer thanks to you."

"This is not a blessing. If I had a choice, I would rather never have awakened my spirit. At least I wouldn't be afraid to go home like I am now."

Zhang Xiaodao looked a little depressed, and he felt pained from the bottom of his heart about becoming a replacer.

From this point of view, she is actually not the same kind of person as Luo Xia and Su Xueqi.

Neither Luo Xia nor Su Xueqi had any resistance to the idea of ​​awakening the spirit.

Luo Xia felt somewhat pleasantly surprised, and Su Xueqi waited for a long time before successfully awakening her spirit. In fact, both of them enjoyed this feeling very much.

Although there are some critical situations, they still enjoy it.

But Zhang Xiaodao is obviously not like that.

Becoming a Replacer changed her original life trajectory, turning her from a "child from other people's families" who was admitted to Sith Academy into a lonely person who could only hide in the old town and dared not go out.

Even during the replacement period, she was not much better off, because she was also being hunted in the Gray Zone.

If there wasn't an obsession that had to be fulfilled, she sometimes really felt that death might be a kind of relief.

"...Wait, since you just awakened your spirit, how do you know about the Gentlemen's Club? Gao Tianlin even told you all this?" Zhang Xiaodao suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Whether it was Luo Xia's calmness or the fact that he immediately revealed the identity of the Gentlemen's Club and Gao Tianlin as the seventh gentleman, it was all very inconsistent!

This is totally not the state a new person who has just undergone a replacement should be in!
"I thought you would realize the problem immediately. It seems that your vigilance is still not strong enough." Su Xueqi chuckled, "You don't think you are the only special one, do you, lovely Xiaodao sister?"

"You?" Zhang Xiaodao glanced at Su Xueqi, then immediately stopped wondering and shook his head, "I should have thought of it earlier. Since you and Gao Tianlin are not the same kind of people, Luo Xia must have brought you to see me for a reason."

"The story is very complicated, but it has nothing to do with the matter itself, so I won't go into details." Luo Xia murmured, "We may not be friends yet, but now we have a common enemy. The main reason I came to you this time is to see if there is any chance to solve our common troubles." "You want to get rid of Gao Tianlin?" Zhang Xiaodao was a little surprised.

She really didn't expect Rorschach to be so heartless.

Gao Tianlin is not just any ordinary person. As the seventh gentleman of the Gentlemen's Club, Gao Tianlin's strength is absolutely terrifying!

Like the 'Little Bunny' who communicated with her before, whose code name in the zoo is 'Blue Rabbit', he is also a cadre of the zoo.

He is also a bronze knight with extraordinary strength.

But even Lan Tu himself admitted that he was only at the bottom of the bronze level, and he was not sure he could deal with even the tenth gentleman.

What’s more, he is the seventh gentleman, Gao Tianlin?

Therefore, Zhang Xiaodao never thought of escaping her current predicament by counterattacking, unless her master was fine.

"Although I don't know why the Gentlemen's Club is targeting you, they don't have many forces active in Dayan. As long as we kill Gao Tianlin, it will be enough to temporarily make them afraid to act rashly." Luo Xia nodded.

"I'm not trying to encourage others, but we have no chance of winning against a veteran swapper like Gao Tianlin." Zhang Xiaodao said bluntly, "Or... Miss Su is also a veteran swapper?"

"No, she's probably not as experienced as you, and she's just had her blood fused." Rorschach shook his head.

"If that's the case, I don't quite understand why you think we can kill Gao Tianlin, or do you not understand his strength?" Zhang Xiaodao couldn't help but pour a basin of cold water on him.

"Of course I know he's very strong, and I won't joke about my own life." Luo Xia said calmly, "But I'm actually a little curious. You should know that the Gentlemen's Club is not welcomed by the Da Yan official. If you are being targeted by them, why don't you seek the protection of the Flame Dragon?"

"I have my reasons." Zhang Xiaodao shook his head, obviously not wanting to explain this problem.

Luo Xia did not continue to ask after hearing this. After all, everyone has secrets, and the two of them are not close enough to talk about everything.

He himself had his reservations as well.

"To be honest, I wasn't absolutely sure I could deal with him. I came to you to see if you were worth cooperating with. I hadn't even decided whether to confront you before I walked in." Rorschach said slowly.

Zhang Xiaodao heard this and asked curiously, "So what made you decide to confront me?"

"Of course it's because I've determined your value as a partner. As long as you're willing to cooperate, I can't say anything else. It shouldn't be a problem to get rid of Gao Tianlin." Luo Xia said calmly.

After these words were spoken, not only Zhang Xiaodao, but even Su Xueqi was very surprised, but she was more restrained and did not show it.

Because she was not sure whether Rorschach was trying to trick Zhang Xiaodao. If she showed surprise, wouldn't that ruin Rorschach's plan?
So even though she was surprised, she didn't say anything, but just stood there quietly as a spectator.

"I'm sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean. What exactly do you mean by the value of cooperation and how can I cooperate?" Zhang Xiaodao asked directly.
