Chapter 1167: Chapter 975: Drawing Closer

When people know nothing about something, they’re more prone to believe in their own judgment.

To Lu Xiang, Song Lan had fully exploited this point, blurring everyone’s vision. Just on this account, this Dumb Bird well deserves the title of a fraud ringleader.

Besides the Flight Type characteristic, he should also be given the Evil Type to fully display his cunning.

Just now, Song Lan had used the "trickery" skill again.

And all the deviation began with their thinking on the premise of "I can defeat Song Lan."

Whether it was the past High Prosecutor Dominas or the survivor from the upper world they had yet to meet, they all harbored such firm beliefs.

But from the information Lu Xiang currently holds, this premise is most likely incorrect from the start.

Therefore, even the most meticulous plan would ultimately lead to an erroneous outcome.

"You’ve also used Qi He and others as bait."

Once Lu Xiang followed this train of thought, she noticed many terrifying details.

Song Lan repeatedly expressed his hopes for his fellow countrymen to walk on the "right" path, but the key is, how could he convince the others that they’ve found a loophole and dedicate a long time researching it?

The past methods would certainly not work anymore.

Song Lan’s assimilation speed with the upper world’s Consciousness Entities wasn’t fast, and for this reason, before he completed the assimilation, other Consciousness Entities joined forces intending to eradicate this malignancy.

He sauntered into the enemy’s lair, confiding his own weaknesses to the other party in a casual chat.

Even if Song Lan really did so, he couldn’t gain their trust.

But Qi He, with a firm goal, was different.

"To save someone, they’ll have to make contact with the Spiritual Energy Agency’s people, and even clash with them."

And unlike Dominas, RT1 and the Consciousness Entities have some understanding of Song Lan’s abilities, making it easy to notice the abnormalities in Qi He and others.

Three individuals, seemingly able to foresee the future, abruptly appeared out of nowhere in the prosthetic hospital.

Continue the pursuit, and one would find the anomaly in their appearance—the minds of everyone in the hospital experienced a brief void, and when they came to, these uninvited guests had already appeared inside.

They would also conclude that this was the result of Song Lan’s abilities’ activation.

A few travelers from the future, besides wanting to change past misfortunes...

Are there to nip all dangers in the bud.

Lu Xiang put herself in the shoes of her fellow countrymen and RT1, coming to the conclusion that they would definitely see Qi He as bait thrown by Song Lan; as soon as they exposed themselves to the three individuals, they would encounter the well-prepared Song Lan.

So to avoid dying at the hands of the "future Song Lan," they could only hide as best as possible.

And thus...

Qi He and his two companions became safe instead.

That’s why Song Lan could lay leisurely on the hotel’s big bed to rest; RT1 and the countrymen would probably never dream that Song Lan had never really intended to look for them but only created a frightening atmosphere.

What a sinister and cunning Dumb Bird!

However, Song Lan put on a "don’t know what you’re talking about" face, "Hm? I only thought of helping Qi He make up for his past regrets, considering he had helped us out a lot. The most important thing in social interactions is reciprocity; this way, friendships can be maintained for a longer time."

Lu Xiang didn’t reply; she just examined Song Lan closely across this distance of less than half a meter.

After all, everything just now was based on speculation; she wasn’t sure whether Song Lan planned all this like a behind-the-scenes Black Hand or if it was just a fluke.

Understanding his train of thought seemed even more challenging than the conspiracy itself.

But this wasn’t Lu Xiang’s first day dealing with Song Lan; she had long since given up on understanding his true thoughts.

How should one deal with the annoyance arising from suspicion in such situations?

"A Love Tip Every Day" had already provided the answer.

Shift the focus.

Endless suspicion is a poison that destroys romantic relationships, and she should focus on things that truly deserve attention, for instance, this still-playing-innocent Dumb Bird.

To explain Lu Xiang’s upcoming plan in simpler terms, she was about to bite.

"Hey, Doraemon A Xiang, why are you biting—"

As her lips launched an attack, Song Lan’s words got pushed back, and Lu Xiang seized the moment he was dazed to flip over, pressing down on him, shoving all grievances back.

The long night.

At this very moment, a micro-robot lurking quietly into the room suddenly received a withdrawal command, turning back halfway before it fully exited the window, while Angle Saffire, who was still in the lobby, slipped and fell from the sofa onto the hotel’s cold marble floor.

His face flushed; he hastily turned off the scene transmitted by the micro-robot.

Hearing the commotion, the hotel’s bionic receptionist miss approached with concern, supporting his shoulder and asking, "Mr. Angle, are you alright?"

"Ah, I’m fine; I was just distracted."

Through the micro-robot, he had witnessed the entire process of Lu Xiang’s animalistic behavior and felt as though an invisible force kicked him.
