Crossing the Other World: I Can Become a Valkyrie

Chapter 78: A wingless bird in a cage.

“Hah~ um….”

"From your looks, you didn't get enough rest yesterday?"

In the back seat of a moving special car, He Ling, dressed in formal attire, looked at Lin Yurou who kept yawning. At this moment, He Ling had changed her previous appearance of a Valkyrie on the battlefield. Dressed in a black suit and white gloves, she looked like a man in black, acting decisively and heroically. She knew everything about the workplace and could cleverly resolve any unfavorable factors that might occur.

The special car was driving on an empty road. It was hard to imagine that on a road comparable to that of a first-tier city, there were no traces of any vehicles on either side. There were no streets walking around the road, and even the traffic lights that were usually used to manage traffic at the intersections in the city were dim. The special car quickly crossed the intersection.

Lin Yurou looked at the dim city area. She couldn't understand why she came to this peaceful and safe city after passing the investigator's interview. But now it seems that it may be true on the surface, but there may be many things she doesn't know inside.

The special car quickly passed through the city center. After driving for a while, they were finally able to see traces of human beings. Starting from the entrance of the search bureau, the people on the street became fewer and fewer until the center of the city was empty. Those who worked in the city center all moved to work in backup facilities around the city.

The five-kilometer radius extending outward from the city center is a true deserted place. Looking at the shops with the lights turned off and everything in darkness, she saw many of them. There was the shop where she used to like to eat ice cream, the shopping center where she liked to buy clothes, and the toy house where she would play with a few friends from time to time. But at this moment, all of them were dim, and all the goods on display had been taken off the shelves. Almost every shop had a sign on the door saying "suspended business" or "temporarily closed".

"The apostles clearly caused the damage outside the city, so why do we have to evacuate the people here?"

Lin Yurou looked at the street outside the car window, thinking unconsciously that she was used to sitting in a black van drifting in space, and now she was sitting in this professional vehicle used specifically for office work by the search bureau. The driving speed was not very fast, and the shock absorption effect of the car was also very good, so there was almost no vibration when sitting in it.

There was no external stimulation to cheer her up. She was so excited that she almost couldn't sleep all night when she learned yesterday that she and Director He were going to discuss the matter of Lingcheng Pharmaceutical's move into Chaoyang City with the person in charge of Lingcheng Pharmaceutical, Tang Yu's home. She was thinking every moment not to do anything that would damage Director He's face, completely forgetting that she had received professional etiquette training before.

But after leaving home, she started to live as she pleased, so much so that she had no idea why He Ling would choose to let her go with him for the negotiation.

Looking at Lin Yurou who was drowsy in her seat, He Ling was a little confused. Didn’t she inform her yesterday morning?

Even if you are preparing for today's negotiations, you shouldn't be so excited that you can't sleep all night, right?

He Ling, whose hair was nearly a quarter white, looked at her hair that had changed color. A hint of white flashed in her deep blue eyes, which made her frown. She hadn't had a good rest for a few days. She hadn't slept all night yesterday, as she was dealing with the follow-up documents of the Chaoyang City Apostle Crisis.

The flash of headache made her want to take out the cigarette box, as if this was the only way to restore her spirit. She did not take any of the special medicine that Dawn brought her, as she did not like restricting her feelings.

"Please stop. There is a disaster area ahead. What are you doing?"

Some soldiers set up a cordon in the middle of the road. The buildings behind this cordon were ruins. As the line of sight continued forward, one could see a huge deep pit not far away and a huge icicle that had not completely melted. Around it, some people in antifreeze suits were holding flamethrowers and spraying fire on the icicle to accelerate its melting.

"Discussing with Lingcheng Pharmaceuticals about entering the city. Director He Ling, the representative of the Chaoyang Investigation Bureau, is also in the car."

The driver took out his ID and a series of processed certificates. After lowering the rear window to let the soldiers see that it was indeed He Ling, he immediately arranged for him to pass.

"Chief He, why did you ask me to go with you?"

Looking at the yellow cordon going farther and farther away, Lin Yurou could no longer suppress her curiosity and asked her. Perhaps she did not expect that she would have the courage to ask her immediate superior a question. However, if she did not say something to perk herself up, she would really fall asleep!

"The other party is a large organization that can freely shuttle between the two giants, but they can decide to station their main body in Chaoyang City. Moreover, the size of the other party is much larger than ours from the beginning. We are not equal from the beginning. Even if we stand in front of the table, we are much smaller than the other party."

"Just relying on the title of the director of Chaoyang Investigation Bureau is not enough to sit down. That's why the investigators who came to support us have not chosen to go back. We, who are also S-level fighters, will also stay in the city. We need to rely on some other power and identity, even if this identity is one that both of us have abandoned."

"Lin Yurou, I feel like we are very similar. We are both fledglings born in aristocratic families. We should have flown to the blue sky after growing up, but the birdcages built by our families imprisoned us. We walked our lives along the paths arranged by others, and finally, we were annihilated."

He Ling rolled down the car window, and the wind from the car on the road blew on her face, interweaving the snow-white and blue hair. At this moment, He Ling's temperament that belonged to a person in a high position was fully revealed.

"Although this is a life that has been arranged, it may also be a helpless act. However, we who are in the birdcage cannot see or understand it. Everything has changed after obtaining the power outside of our body."

An ice rose appeared in front of He Ling's hand. Perhaps in the eyes of others, this rose was beautiful and harmless, because it was just a petal, how dangerous could it be?

However, only she herself knows that the beauty of the rose is not just because it is beautiful, but because the branches of the rose are covered with thorns, which are hidden without a trace under the beautiful appearance.

This is the real key to her domain, the extreme domain.

She only needs to throw it gently on the ground, or inject some of her own, or a large amount of other superpowers, or just accept some pressure from the outside world, then everything within a radius of ten kilometers will be silent at the moment when the pole is released until the disappearance of the domain.

In this, except for those whose strength far exceeds her human ceiling level, she is invincible in this stagnant area, which is why she was able to fight against the mysterious pink-haired strongman in the previous discussion.

"We still have about an hour to reach the mansion. It's not much, but it's enough time to rest. Do you want to come here and rest for a while?"

He Ling put the black suitcase on her legs aside. She could feel the flesh bouncing back when she gently patted her black silk thighs in a black hip skirt. Her body temperature was much lower than that of ordinary people. It would be very comfortable to sleep on them.

Lin Yurou swallowed as she looked at He Ling's thighs. Although she had a good figure, she was still a little immature after all. She was just a girl!

But compared to He Ling, who exudes the aura of a Valkyrie who is mature, reliable and very smart on the battlefield, she seems like a little sister pretending to be mature next to a mature older sister.

"Really, is it really okay?"

"Director He..."

"Of course you can. However, you don't have to address me as Director in such a private setting. I'm still quite young, so I should be able to be your sister, right?"

He Ling put his finger on Bai Jie's chin. She seemed to have not looked at her age for a long time. She didn't know if her ID card had expired. She had to apply for a new one. But after all, she was really young, and Lin Yurou didn't look like the Tianshan Tonglao who was old enough to be her grandmother, so she was still quite confident in herself.

"Well, come on, I hope I can satisfy you."
