Quick Travel: Card Destroyer

Chapter 361: Same Heart, Different Paths (Thirty-Two)

Since coming to the Card City, this is Bing Haoqi's first time to be in a place outside Qingbai District.

She was now holding a bag of puffed snacks in her arms and walking on Chunhuilu Commercial Street in Dongrong District. Even though she was very familiar with the prosperity of the city, she could not help but be dazzled by the numerous shops on both sides of the road.

Some strange connection told her that Fu Cangzhao would soon come to Dongrong District, so she was not in a hurry to convey the information she had investigated outside the city.

The display board on the tall building in the distance has been playing various images, including but not limited to various product advertisements, freshly-released card image trailers, and "Dark Chaser", which the author is said to be very slow in releasing.

Suddenly, she saw a signboard announcing a piece of news:

"Recently, more than 20% of the cultivated land in Xianling District has turned red..."

The host was reading the script conscientiously, but Bing Haoqi's eyes were already full of disbelief. He didn't even notice that the food from the snack bag he had just taken out fell back.

Why does lateritization appear here?

No, it should be said that the loop ends - wait a minute.

She shook her head, forcing herself to calm down.

The question that should be asked is not "Why did the End of the Loop appear in Card City?"

It should be, "When did the Goddess of Resurrection appear in the Card City?"

She took back the snack bag, took out the "Water Drop" card, frowned, and stared at the patterns on the card.

One of the important raw materials of "Water Droplets" - rootless water, comes from the end of the loop.

This thing is very rare, but not completely unavailable, and she successfully found a seller during the trading month. However, because of its rarity, the amount she got in the end was not enough, and card production was once deadlocked.

Until one day, she saw a familiar white light from under Sancai's body lying in the cat's bed.

So she interrogated the cat very "kindly", shaking out more rootless water that shone white from its fluffy fur. Facing the cat's aggrieved look, she realized that this thing had always been made by Sancai, and as long as the cat agreed, she could take a few drops.

The rootless water comes from the end of the loop, that is, "sub-reality"; the rootless water is a tangible substance, a three-color painting - or the divine "judgment" that Fu Cangzhao peeled off by himself - a practice work of turning the virtual into the real.

Since the cat tricolor is closely related to the loop's end, and the appearance of the loop's end is accompanied by red earth, it is not impossible that the card city will also become red earth.

The question is, who is Su Sheng?

The next piece of news is even more explosive:

"The city council has initiated impeachment proceedings against the mayor! The leader of the White Dove faction has declared a state of emergency in the city!"

Bing Haoqi: “?”

Why do you guys in Card City also do this?

She had originally shown little interest in this, but suddenly the mayor's figure flashed across the big screen. His brown hair and gray-green eyes were almost identical to Ji Liangqi's, causing her pupils to tremble again.

"My great grandma, are you the mayor's biological daughter?" At this moment, she was almost about to grab a bag of melon seeds and start eating them, complaining crazily to A Yao.

Thinking of this, she took out her laptop and called the office, preparing to get some information from Ji Liangqi. Although that guy was very tight-lipped, they had been together for so long that it was inevitable that he would reveal some clues. At least she could see that he had a terrifyingly wide network of contacts and his identity must be extraordinary.

Unexpectedly, the call was connected, but the voice coming from the other end did not belong to Ji Liangqi: "Do you have something to do with her?"

Bing Haoqi immediately looked as if he had seen a ghost: "Who are you?"

"Me?" The other person's voice rose at the end, obviously intending to tease her for a while, "I think you can call me Yuedong."

"Are you sick?" Bing Haoqi hung up the phone on the spot.

There are three goddesses living in the End of the Loop. The three colors are "Judgment", and "Wintering" appears out of nowhere in the Dongyu Office. There is still one dangerous person left, "Susheng", where did she go?

After staring at the newly added call records on the computer screen for a while, she suddenly had an idea and remembered someone who had dropped in at the office not long ago.

Could it be that “Overwintering” is... her?

Just as she was about to call back to confirm, the other party took the initiative to make a call request to her.

"Hello? Are you the little ghost's good friend?" The man who called himself "Yuedong" restrained his joking this time and his tone became serious.

"You are Yi Chunzhan." Bing Haoqi seemed to be asking a question, but his words were actually affirmative.

On the other end of the call, Yi Chunzhan rubbed his swollen temples and said, "Strictly speaking, I am a human body that was released into the human world by 'Overwinter', specifically to experience all kinds of life. But today's focus is not on this. Since you just called me, I'll tell you about it..."

"Hey, you haven't even asked me what I want to ask you. Stop talking nonsense!" Bing Haoqi interrupted her unhappily. "I want to ask, what is the relationship between Ji Liangqi and the mayor?"

Yi Chunzhan sighed and said faintly, "What a coincidence, it has a lot to do with what I want to tell you. In fact, I was going to tell that kid Fu Cangzhao, but she didn't seem to listen at all. You share the same thoughts with her, so it's the same if I tell you.

"If you had seen the news broadcast on the street, you would have been able to tell that Ji Liangqi is somewhat related to the mayor. That's right, she is the mayor's child. The mayor once had a lover, and they used their genetic information to cultivate a child, and then took the child home to raise. With the mayor's ability, he must have given Ji Liangqi the best education, which a greenhouse cannot compare to.

"Ji Liangqi is a genius in card making, she just doesn't like it. If someone were to check the card design competition from more than a decade ago, they would definitely find that the first place winner's name was erased. That person was Ji Liangqi."

"Why was it erased?" Bing Haoqi tried his best to digest the information and extract the key points. "And why, now that Ji Liangqi is not here, the mayor was impeached?"

"She is Su Sheng."

Bing Haoqi frowned and moved the laptop away.

What the hell is going on?

Judgment is her pet cat, Yuedong is her childhood friend, and Susheng is herself?

A small maintenance office gathered three heavyweights at once?

Are you sure this is just an office and not some Feng Shui treasure land?

But after all, they were not together. Yi Chunzhan didn't know what expression Bing Haoqi was making now, so he just continued to talk to himself: "Although I carry the memory of wintering, my understanding of Su Sheng is still very limited. If you want to fully understand the situation, you need to have a deep understanding of the history of the city. That's what the White Dove Faction did."

"Why are you involved with this bunch of irrelevant guys again?" Bing Haoqi curled her lips with disdain. She had no good feelings towards the faction that caused Song Ximing to be seriously injured twice.

Yi Chunzhan said, "No matter what your impression of the White Pigeons is, I can only say that they are also seeking a way out for the city, and are essentially still on the same page with the Sharp Blade Faction. However, the path they are taking is likely to drag the city into the abyss, so they need your little ghost and the funeral home."

Bing Haoqi vs. Ji Liangqi

Original impression: a reliable old lady.

Current impression: This person is the mayor’s biological daughter…
