Pick Up a Killer as Girlfriend

Don't need to do much more, just silently do your best.

Wasn't Chen Mengying silently doing her best from the very beginning too? Likewise, she was happy for him, worried about him, seeing him and Liu Siyan in such a mess, trying every way to help bring them together.

Xiaofan, oh Xiaofan, could it be that you've never known you're the happiest person in this world?

At the same time, in Russia... After Shen Zuimo's training ended, she began slowly adapting to her work beside the Empress.

In the splendid grand hall, Shen Zuimo's appearance actually matched the glory and splendor here.

Both the members of the imperial family and the guests were deeply captivated by the beautiful lady.

Her beauty... could always leave one breathless. Her beauty couldn't be concealed by a set of black work clothes, nor hidden by a pair of sunglasses.

"Hi, girl. Are you getting used to being here?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Very good. Your work skills are outstanding. With you by my side, I'm beginning to look forward to this trip to Huaxia."

"It's my honor to serve you."

"Girl, that is my youngest son, he's thirty-two this year. What do you think of him?"

"Very good, he's polite and has a lot of grace."

"Even now he hasn't found a girl he fancies, but he came over last night to inquire about you, seems like he's taken a liking to you."

"Your Majesty jests."

"I'm not jesting, actually, I quite like your character too. If you are willing, after this trip to Huaxia, I can propose to Huaxia to have you follow me back, and then stay here peacefully as a princess..."

"This..."

"Oh, sorry. I always forgot to ask, do you have a boyfriend?"

"I... Well, yes, Your Majesty, I have someone I like."

"Oh, what a pity, this boy must be outstanding."

"He's alright, sometimes he seems quite annoying." If one could see Shen Zuimo's eyes behind the sunglasses at this moment, they would surely see the warmth in her gaze as she spoke these words.

"Oh, girl, may I know his name?"

"He... is called Ye Xiaofan."

"Ye Xiaofan? This boy must be very handsome..."

"Not handsome, just a bit silly..."

"Hehehehe, but I really like you. After this trip to Huaxia ends, I hope you can come and stay with me for a while again. I'm getting old, and just want to hear some stories from you young people, are you willing?"

"Well, I'll consider it then." Shen Zuimo's gaze suddenly flickered. She didn't agree immediately.

Hearing her tone, it's clear that she doesn't have any aversion to this Empress. Quite the contrary, during the time working together, the Empress made her feel exceptionally warm, not treating her as an outsider at all. Otherwise, she wouldn't have casually offered to make her son's consort, considering they select their consorts very strictly.

However, if she agrees to stay a while longer, then the matter of finding Ye Xiaofan would be delayed another while.

Delayed? We'll see at that time, after all, it's been delayed for so long already.

On the other side, in Japan...

Though the Red Butterfly formed with Japan's investment was completely dismantled thanks to Xiaofan's efforts, Ikeshita, under the alias Uncle Zhong, managed to escape back to Japan.

Don't forget, though Red Butterfly was destroyed, the infiltrators that Zhu Fan had placed inside the Yanhuang Soul were still there.

Soul of Slaughter never stopped transmitting information from inside Yanhuang Soul to Japan, regardless of its importance; all information he grasped would be sent back one by one.

"Mr. Fujita, there are new messages from Soul of Slaughter."

"Hmm? Ikeshita, what new progress has been found?"

"Yes, Mr. Fujita, this time the messages are quite good."

"Hmm? Speak..."

"Last month, the nightingale was sent to Russia for training. Soon, the Russian Empress will visit Huaxia to discuss increasing cooperative development in commerce between the two countries. Moreover, it has been confirmed that the one leading the operation annihilating Red Butterfly was undoubtedly Ye Xiaofan, along with other members such as Han Shengjun, Li Kuo, Li San, Ren Ying, Lei Xiaolei... It seems Han Shengjun is back in the army, while Li San and Li Kuo occasionally return to Yanhuang Soul, spending more time outside. Ren Ying and Lei Xiaolei are usually inside Yanhuang Soul, and the new members they developed are excellent. The earliest batch of newcomers entered Yanhuang Soul with Soul of Slaughter, including Lin Hongbin, He Qiang, and Li Sai. They have now become A-level Warriors."

"And Ye Xiaofan?"

"Ye Xiaofan seems to have no other news; apparently, he's studying at Capital City University in Huaxia."

"Studying?"

"Yes, exactly."

"What on earth is this Ye Xiaofan up to?"

"Is there anything else?"

"Yes, there's something very important. Soul of Slaughter successfully infiltrated the information department and uncovered some secret file contents regarding the nightingale."

"How important is it..."

"Data on HLY007."

"What?"

Hearing this name, Fujita's eyes suddenly lit up, "Quick, speak."

"Hmm, the document states that when the nightingale escaped from the organization, she carried out all the synthesis and manufacturing process materials of the nearly completed HLY007 in a mobile memory device. However, she lost her original memory while avoiding pursuit. Although she has now recovered her memory, she just can't seem to remember where she placed that memory card."

"Are you saying that the data should still exist?" Fujita inquired.

"We can't be certain, but it's possible. Back then, the nightingale suffered amnesia while residing with Ye Xiaofan, but since Ye Xiaofan doesn't recall anything either, it indicates that the nightingale secretly hid it somewhere. If she can recall everything that happened during her amnesiac period, she should definitely be able to remember where the memory is hidden."

"Ikeshita, what do you think?"

"This thing could potentially control the global economy; I think we must take another shot."

"Very good, I was thinking the same. Inform Soul of Slaughter to closely watch Shen Zuimo's actions. The moment there's news, report back immediately, or better yet, keep in constant contact if possible."

"Yes, Mr. Fujita. Soul of Slaughter seems to have guessed that we wouldn't give up so easily, so he sent his thoughts as well."

"Hmm? What thoughts?"

"His perspective is that he's already learned a lot about the inside of Yanhuang Soul. If action is needed, he indeed has no problem, but it's just that this Ye Xiaofan is someone to be wary of..."

"Hmm? Ye Xiaofan again?" Fujita couldn't help but furrow his brows tightly.
