Left with no other choice, she ultimately opted to compromise.

Xiao Yi continued his training methodically, and through his efforts, he eventually succeeded in gaining the ability to recite.

But every time she came back from outside, she would see him standing at the door, covered in injuries, waiting for her.

Today was no different. As soon as Su Yuanyuan got off the airship, she saw Xiao Yi at the door. Although she had changed her clothes, she could still see a lot of injuries on her arms.

She ran over, took his hand, pushed open the gates of the underworld with one hand, and led him inside.

"Xiao Yi, don't wait for me after training next time. Go back and take care of your wound first."

"But I want to wait for my sister."

Xiao Yi turned her head to look at her, and seeing that she wasn't angry, she curled the corner of her mouth slightly.

"But I'll feel sorry for you. At least apply the medicine before you come over, okay?"

Su Yuanyuan had no way to deal with him, so she had no choice but to back down.

Xiao Yi nodded obediently, which was considered as her agreement.

She poked his head with her finger, "Is Mom home today? Did she look for you?"

"My mom is home. I've been training all day, and she didn't come to see me."

Xiao Yi let her poke her without resisting at all.

Seeing this, Su Yuanyuan wanted to pat his head again, but in the end, she was too embarrassed to do it because he was so well-behaved.

They were stopped by Kikyo's mother halfway there. Su Yuanyuan looked at what was on her face and remained silent for a while.

"Mom, what are you wearing?"

"Isn't it beautiful? This is connected to the home security camera, so the entire mountain is under my surveillance."

Su Yuanyuan choked for a moment, then nodded with difficulty. Didn't this mean that their mother would be able to see everything they did from now on?

"Will Mom not go out anymore? Will that be inconvenient?"

When Kikyo's mother covered her face with a fan, her electronic eyes, which were flashing red, were revealed.

"Now that Xiao Fu is helping out, we can manage everything at home. Mom won't have to go out anymore. We can train Xiao Yi at home from now on, so it won't be inconvenient!"

After listening to Kikyo's mother's words, Su Yuanyuan secretly glanced at Xiao Yi with a sympathetic look.

She felt that the training Kikyu's mother mentioned might be more than just physical, and hoped that Eileen could hold on.

Suddenly, she thought of something and turned to look at Kikko's mother.

"Mom, Xiao Yi is old enough to do missions now. When will he start?"

The electronic eyes on Kikko's mother's face flashed a few times, and then she silently turned her head to the other side.

Su Yuanyuan looked at her speechlessly; Kikyo's mother hadn't thought of this beforehand.

She led Eyjafjalla past Kikyu's mother and ran back to the villa to find Silva's father, hoping to take Eyjafjalla with her on the mission.

"father!"

Su Yuanyuan suddenly pushed open the door to Shibaba's house, startling the monsters in the room who jumped up but slowly lay back down when they saw them.

Papa Silba patted its head before turning his gaze over.

"Why are you so anxious?"

Su Yuanyuan ran up to him with Xiao Yi and stood in front of him. "Daddy, when does Xiao Yi start his mission? Can I take him with me?"

Xiao Yi looked up at him with expectant eyes.

Silva's father looked at Yi and thought for a moment, "There's a simple task the day after tomorrow. I think Yi can complete it by herself, so you don't need to come along."

Xiao Yi's eyes lit up after hearing this. Su Yuanyuan looked at him and stopped worrying about whether she could accompany him. Her younger brother was getting older and needed to learn to do tasks on his own.

So she nodded and prepared to go back.

"Xiaofu!"

Hearing Silva's father call her, Su Yuanyuan turned around and looked at him in confusion.

Papa Silba waved to her, and she went over and stood to the side.

"There's a mission tomorrow, it'll be a bit dangerous, do you want to go?"

Su Yuanyuan tilted her head curiously. He had always asked about dangerous missions before, so what was different about this one?

"Dad, what's the mission?"

"The mission itself is fine; it's just about killing someone. But the location is a bit dangerous; it's in Meteor City."

She suddenly realized that she had heard her grandfather, Geno, mention this place. People born in Meteor City did not have any socially recognized identity documents.

This point has been misinterpreted by those with ulterior motives as meaning that non-existence equals not being human.

Therefore, no matter what they did, it did not constitute a crime, so the villains who preyed on the residents began to frequently visit Meteor City.

The annual death toll here reaches hundreds, and more than 70% of them are children under the age of 15.

Later, the natives couldn't take it anymore, so Meteor City chose to cooperate with the Mafia, exchanging personnel for their protection.

As Meteor City's ties with the Mafia deepened, individuals within the Elder Council began to awaken Nen abilities.

His ability is based on an oath rooted in the "law of retribution".

Blood debts can only be repaid with blood.

Grandpa Geno told her that in Meteor City, strength determines everything, and without strength, there is only death.

Therefore, those who survived in Meteor City are all formidable individuals, so she should be cautious when encountering them in the future.

However, don't worry too much. The Zoldycks aren't afraid of them. It's just that getting entangled with them can affect business.

Is Silbapapa planning to go to Meteor City to commit murder? Is the perpetrator a local or someone who infiltrated from elsewhere?

"Dad, were they killing people from Meteor City?"

Silva's father patted her head, glancing out of the corner of his eye at Little Yi, who was still standing there.

"Don't worry, they're not from Meteor City, they just ran in."

Su Yuanyuan nodded, that was fine. She had just started doing tasks and didn't want to be bothered by anyone, which would affect her ability to make money.

"Then I can go. Do you have any information about the target?"

"Yes, the butler will send it to you in a bit. He's going to Meteor City at someone's invitation and will be at the banquet. You need to be prepared."

Upon hearing this, Su Yuanyuan suddenly didn't want to take on the mission anymore. She looked up at Silva's father, whose eyes told her firmly that once a mission was taken, it would not be taken back.

She frowned, "Daddy, are you doing this on purpose? You don't want to wear a dress, so you're passing this task to me?"

Silva's father smiled kindly and patted her on the head with one hand.

"How could that be? I just think you should take on a higher-level task."

Su Yuanyuan dared not argue under her father's thumb and could only obediently nod. Xiao Yi looked at Silva's father with his big, innocent eyes.

Her eyes were full of understanding for him, making Su Yuanyuan really want to pinch his face until it turned red.

She went back to her room, threw herself onto the bed, and punched the pillow a few times.

After lying down for a while, I reluctantly went into the walk-in closet and started picking out clothes.

She wasn't going to a banquet; she needed to choose a dress that would allow for easy movement.

Finally, she found a cheongsam at the very back of the wardrobe. She didn't know when it had been put there. She held it up in front of her and figured it should fit.

She threw her clothes on the bed and picked up the documents on the table to look at them.

It's okay to try on the clothes later; let's get to know the target first.

The target's information is complete, but Su Yuanyuan is there to kill someone, not to go on a blind date.

She tossed aside the pages detailing her personal hobbies and family situation.

She only focused on the main figures at the banquet and their relationships with the target.

Will anyone interfere with her doing the task?
