After faking her death in interstellar space, the powerful woman disguised herself as a man and went

Leng Ran stood at the dormitory entrance.

Two figures, carrying bags, sneaked up to the cold, imposing courtyard gate.

"It seems like there's no one in the room, and all the lights are off."

"Could she be asleep?"

"No way, it's only eight o'clock. Who goes to sleep at this hour?"

"Didn't they have individual combat training this afternoon? Why aren't they back yet?"

"No way, it's already eight o'clock. Others might not be back yet, but Mo Li is definitely back."

"Sigh, then let's wait a little longer."

The two stood in the cold wind for a while longer, waiting for more than half an hour, but still there was no sign of Leng Ran.

"Old Qin, it's so late, isn't it inappropriate for us to come and visit?"

Qin Yue put her bag on the ground: "It's better to be late, when do we have time during the day? Lao Lu, if you're a brother, stay with me a little longer."

Lu Haoyu sighed helplessly, "Alright, alright. Mo Li's doorbell isn't working, I'll climb over and knock. Maybe he's in his dorm."

Qin Yue: "I'll go with you."

The two of them climbed over into the yard together, and Lu Haoyu immediately spotted Luo Luo in the corner: "Old Qin, look at this robot, it's so cute!"

Qin Yue replied absentmindedly, "Mm."

Lu Haoyu's eyes lit up. He quickly walked over to Luo Luo, picked her up, and spun her around: "She's so small, baby, what can you do, baby~"

Lu Haoyu's voice stopped abruptly, the sound of a bullet being chambered rang out, and a cold gun barrel was already pressed against his forehead.

Lolo's eyes flashed red: "I can kill you, intruder."

Qin Yue was shocked and was about to come to her good brother's rescue when Luo Luo pulled out another gun, cocked it with one hand, and pointed it at Qin Yue.

Lolo is still so cute: "You're not allowed to move until Master comes back~"

The two people stood frozen in place like statues.

"What do we do now, Lao Qin?" Lu Haoyu was on the verge of tears. "Are all of Mo Li's robots so cute yet so ferocious?"

"Senior Qi Shan seems to live next door; maybe he can help." Qin Yue glanced at the villa next door, which was also dark. "But he's not here either! Let's wait, Lao Lu."

The two men resigned themselves to their fate, standing like human statues in the desolate courtyard, while Qi Shan, from next door, opened a can of beer and stood by the second-floor window, watching the scene with a faint smile through the gap in the curtains.

He tilted his head back and took a swig of beer, his face completely hidden in shadow, a disdainful glint in his golden eyes.

"You're not on the God of Prophecy's list, you traitor Qin Yue. Stay away from him, you're not worthy to be near him."

When Leng Ran returned, the two of them had been standing in the cold wind for almost two hours.

Seeing two extra people in his yard from afar, Leng Ran immediately became alert: "Who are you? What are you doing in my yard?"

Upon hearing Leng Ran's voice, Lu Haoyu felt as if he had seen a savior: "Mo Li, my dear junior, come and save me!"

Leng Ran was taken aback: "Lu Haoyu? And Qin Yue? What are you doing here?"

Qin Yue: "Since school has started, I thought I'd come and visit you. We brought a lot of food!"

Lolo quietly holstered her gun, her eyes turned blue, and she snuggled into Leng Ran's arms: "Master, Lolo has been watching the house well."

After learning the whole story from Lu Haoyu, Leng Ran was both amused and exasperated. Turning around, she saw that Qi Shan's dormitory was still dark, so she had no choice but to put Luo Luo back in the yard.

When Qi Shan gave Luo Luo to her, he never mentioned that the little thing was so aggressive.

However... she hadn't even made any effort to get close to Qin Yue, but unexpectedly Qin Yue took the initiative to come to her. She wondered what he was up to.

He coldly pretended nothing had happened: "Seniors, it's cold outside, let's go inside and talk."

Without any ceremony, the two followed Leng Ran into the room, dumping all sorts of snacks from their bags and piling them on the coffee table in the living room.

Lu Haoyu walked around the room and exclaimed, "Wow, this dormitory is really luxurious! It has a kitchen, a living room, a private bathroom, and you even have a training room! This is a personal paradise!"

Leng Ran was starving and went straight to the kitchen to start cooking: "You've come at the right time, let's have dinner together."

Thinking of the cold, unappetizing "boiled chicken," Lu Haoyu felt a chill run down his spine and waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "No need, no need, we've both eaten, you can eat it yourself."

"Alright." Leng Ran walked into the kitchen, rummaged through the refrigerator for ingredients, and casually asked, "By the way, Senior Qin Yue, how's your injury?"

Qin Yue: "It's nothing, I'm sorry to have worried you."

Lu Haoyu chimed in, "That's right. Why did you have to hide it from us when you got into a fight? Look how angry Shen Junhan is. He hasn't spoken to you in ages!"

Qin Yue guiltily looked away. Shen Junhan probably guessed that she was sent by the Shen family to monitor him, which was why he was so disappointed in her.

Qin Yue changed the subject: "Let's not talk about this anymore. Mo Li, what have you been doing these past few days of vacation? Tell me about it."

"Let me think... I'll play Star Wars at home, eat, sleep, and play Star Wars again. Oh, and then I'll go to the tech expo." Leng Ran pulled a chilled chicken out of the refrigerator. "It's a rare holiday, so of course I should rest well."

Qin Yue agreed: "Indeed. Staying home is the right thing to do. During the few days we were on holiday, there was a fierce firefight in the Eighth District. Some people saw Commander He going there."

Lu Haoyu chimed in, "Yes, yes, I heard about it too! I didn't sleep well that night. Commander He's 'Blazing Sun' mech is amazing! It lit up the entire night sky!"

Qin Yue leaned closer to Leng Ran: "It's a pity that the specific information hasn't been released yet. Mo Li, maybe you know something? Has Commander He revealed anything?"

Leng Ran started boiling water: "There are too many unsettling things happening. My father has rarely come home these past few days. He spends most of his time at the base. I haven't seen him at all, let alone chatted with him."

Lu Haoyu said with a regretful expression, "What a pity. Not only is Lao Qin curious, but I'm quite curious too."

He shrugged coldly: "My father is always tight-lipped. Even if there is some inside information, he is unlikely to tell me. After all, it is a military secret."

Qin Yue gave an awkward laugh: "That's true."

The three of them ate some snacks together, and Leng Ran ate a whole chicken by himself before happily saying goodbye.

Qin Yue and Lu Haoyu returned to their dormitory, but Qin Yue made an excuse to slip out.

Ren emerged from the deserted area: "So? Did you find out anything?"

Qin Yue shook her head: "No, everything is normal."

Blade pondered, "Experts all have their own unique fighting style, and some of their attack habits are hard to change." Blade stroked his chin, "When he fought at Morning Star Tower, the style he displayed didn't seem like a judge... but rather like a tough guy, though his physique didn't match up."

Qin Yue had never seen a strong man before, but his encounter with the judge still left him with considerable psychological trauma.

"Mo Li is very powerful, but he can't possibly be a judge. The judge's aura is too oppressive, while Mo Li doesn't have that murderous aura that's almost tangible."

Murderous aura? That reminds me. The Judge and the Mighty Man both exude the same level of murderous aura! As a top fighter in the Illuminati, the Judge has undoubtedly stained his hands with blood, so it's normal for him to have a stronger murderous aura. But where does the Mighty Man of the Lingyun Army, who is on the righteous path, get his intense murderous aura from?

Beneath the bladed mask, his brow furrowed. No, this proves nothing. To say that the burly man of the Lingyun Army and the Illuminati judge are the same person is utterly absurd!

He preferred to believe that Mo Li was one of them!

Ren squinted: "My intuition tells me that Mo Li is definitely suspicious. You should keep an eye on him and see if he does anything unusual."

"Understood, Lord Blade." Qin Yue lowered her head, a struggle evident in her eyes. "Lord Blade... could we please stop involving innocent people? Gao Xiao almost..."

Blade interrupted: "Qin Yue, put away your unnecessary pity. Don't forget, you've only survived this long because of who you are. Do I need to emphasize your identity again, July?"

Qin Yue's hands, hidden beneath her sleeves, were already clenched into fists: "July will never forget."

July, the month of high summer, yet during his training at the Star Pavilion, he never felt a trace of warmth.

It wasn't until he adopted the alias Qin Yue and met good friends like Shen Junhan, Lu Haoyu, and Lin Yi at Storm Military Academy that he realized there could be such genuine emotions between people.

Unfortunately, he was destined to live in the cold night and could never enter the midsummer of their world.
