Chapter 355: Chapter 216: Attack of the Bunny Girl_2
However, he soon found himself speechless.
Liu Tingruo turned her back to him and unbuttoned her nightgown before gracefully letting it slide to the floor.
Jiang Shu didn’t see any straps of underwear; he quietly swallowed.
With the room’s air conditioning keeping it warm enough, Liu Tingruo completed her change without rushing, which surely would have made her catch a cold otherwise.
Her gaze was fixed on the smooth reflective surface of a sphere, where she could see Jiang Shu behind her, staring intensely. Thus, the corners of her mouth lifted slightly, and her delicate chin raised a bit.
If the all-knowing Jiang Shu were to see this, he could certainly discern that Liu Tingruo was in a very good mood.
Turning around, her expression was as calm as usual, and her voice maintained its usual tone, "Let’s go."
She was wearing a women’s black trench coat, which not only highlighted her cool aura but also outlined her slender waist, making her look irresistibly seductive.
"What’s wrong?" Liu Tingruo glanced at Jiang Shu, who hadn’t moved. She found it amusing yet—being skilled in image management—she didn’t let her amusement show on her face.
"Nothing, you just look really good, Sister Ruo. That trench coat suits you well." Jiang Shu chuckled and slipped his arm around her slender waist.
Perhaps due to her regular exercise, her waist was soft yet devoid of any excess fat, harboring a strength unknown to outsiders.
"Hmph." Liu Tingruo seemed pleased by Jiang Shu’s compliment and did not push his hand away, allowing him to keep it there.
"The new Black Wall has completely shut down." Jiang Shu then spoke seriously, "I can no longer receive information from beyond the Fifth District."
"Mhm." Liu Tingruo nodded in agreement, "Tang acts decisively. Now that the new Black Wall is up, he has no way out, so he’ll do as much as he can in the shortest time."
She pondered for a moment then continued, "This is District C, and whether it’s the Dick Family, Tang, or the main forces of the Three Major Groups, their major areas are located at the junction of Districts A and AB, so even if they start fighting there, it won’t affect us here."
"I understand." Jiang Shu replied. He then opened the elevator door, and both of them stepped inside.
"There might be dangers along the way." Liu Tingruo warned, though Jiang Shu genuinely seemed unconcerned.
He wiggled his wristwatch, "The ’Derivative Entry’ hasn’t disappeared, my ability is still intact. What’s there to fear?"
"Right." Liu Tingruo laughed, and naturally peeled Jiang Shu’s hand from her waist.
They were about to leave the hotel, and her current helpless demeanor didn’t really match her cool and elegant state.
However, behind Liu Tingruo, Jiang Shu looked at his wristwatch, his expression turning rather solemn.
He had just realized that his ’Derivative Entry’ was still usable, and that was why he dared to take Liu Tingruo to check the situation near the Black Wall.
But this also told him something.
The Main Brain could still control the Fifth District.
The new Black Wall could only block the Main Brain’s minions, not its other influences.
Or perhaps...
The Character Card system wasn’t created by the Main Brain at all?
Was it merely a maintainer?
For a moment, Jiang Shu’s mind filled with more questions, but he kept walking.
On the street outside the hotel, a dark sedan that belonged to Liu Tingruo had been waiting for a while.
"You take the passenger seat." Liu Tingruo said, slightly turning her head towards Jiang Shu.
"Okay." Jiang Shu opened the passenger door, sat in the seat, and fastened his seatbelt.
Strapping on the seatbelt as soon as he settled in the car was the first lesson Wolf taught him.
"Roar—"
The black sedan roared— a sound that seemed too powerful for its value—before speeding off, constantly tossing the view outside the windows far behind Jiang Shu.
The thrust felt extremely strong.
Jiang Shu turned his head to observe the scenery outside, watching the people on the streets of the Fifth District amidst the swift, electrifying ride.
The black dome above caused some panic, but not much; the lives of the people of Lonely City were not much affected.
At this time, Xiao Jia started playing a video with considerable volume, so Liu Tingruo, seated at the driver’s seat nearby, could hear it clearly.
"Lonely City time, around eleven o’clock on the evening of November 30, a black dome emerged in the sky over the Fifth District, covering the whole sky. Citizens of the Fifth District, please do not panic and do not go near the black dome. According to Police Chief Dick Tang, this experiment, conducted by the Dick Family along with the Three Major Groups, is meant to test a new type of artificial intelligence society..."
"The Dick Family along with the Three Major Groups?" Liu Tingruo repeated the words in the news report, her voice revealing some confusion.
"Is it a smokescreen or is it really the case?" Jiang Shu also sensed something was off.
Why did it seem like Tang, the Dick Family, and the Three Major Groups had no intention of actually starting a war?
If the Black Wall had already been erected, had the Main Brain not taken any action yet?
Both were somewhat perplexed by the current situation, and Liu Tingruo simply pushed the accelerator harder, increasing their speed once more.
The road they were now traveling was on a suburban highway where city speed limits did not apply.
Fifteen minutes later, Jiang Shu and Liu Tingruo stood before the so-called Black Wall.
The Black Wall was not a solid structure; it exhibited gaseous characteristics, to be precise, a mix of gas and liquid, similar to a black dense fog standing still.
In front of this black fog wall, there was nothing like protection nets, nor were there any patrolling guards overseeing it, and it was just casually positioned there.
Liu Tingruo used Xiao Ba and Xiao Wu’s scanning capabilities to search the area within a few hundred meters, and she didn’t even notice surveillance equipment around.
And as she looked down the continuous stretch of the Black Wall, her line of sight fell on several other vehicles and crowds hundreds of meters away.
Those vehicles were parked right beside the Black Wall, their headlights glaring brightly.
Thanks to Xiao Ba’s camera zoom function, even in the night and with a source of light, she could see clearly what was happening there.
It seemed merely out of curiosity that the Fifth District civilians had come to observe the new Black Wall; the prohibition in the news broadcasts couldn’t restrain these people’s curiosity.
At this time, using the Derivative Entry, Jiang Shu folded a Paperman and controlled it to walk into the midst of the fog of the Black Wall; it quickly disappeared into it.
"How is it?" Liu Tingruo couldn’t help but ask.
"My connection with the Paperman has not been cut," Jiang Shu replied, he could still feel the presence of the Paperman and was still able to control it to keep moving forward.
Keep moving forward.
He closed his eyes, feeling the connection between himself and the Paperman.
The dense black fog had not interfered at all with his driving of the Paperman.
Suddenly, Liu Tingruo urgently pulled his hand, "The Paperman, why has it returned?"
Jiang Shu instantly opened his eyes. In front of him, the Paperman, still under his control, was moving forward, but unknown to him, the Paperman’s direction had somehow turned around.
"Hmm? I was clearly controlling the Paperman to move forward," Jiang Shu frowned.
"This is probably the magic of the Black Wall," Liu Tingruo picked up the Paperman and examined it.
There was no change; the black fog had left no trace on the Paperman.
But Jiang Shu, not giving up, turned the Paperman around, commanding it to walk toward the direction of the Black Wall.
About a minute later, the Paperman walked out of the Black Wall again.
This time he was certain, although he had been controlling the Paperman to move forward, the Paperman just ended up coming back.
At this moment, Xiao Jia also tugged at Jiang Shu’s clothes, pointing at the crowd over there.
Jia: Some people among them had gone in, just like the Paperman; after walking for a while, they had also emerged from the Black Wall; this must be the nature of the new Black Wall.
The two thought silently for a while, but ultimately could not come up with any conclusions.
The situation with the new Black Wall exceeded their expectations; they had thought they would find something else, but staying here now seemed pointless.
Better to wait for Diller to wake up.
"Let’s go," Liu Tingruo spoke at this moment.
"Where to?"
"Back to the hotel."
