Peach-Orange! – Chapter 561 – In the Palm of the Hand

As if the poisonous oath had taken effect, Su Tao, who was originally full of killing intent and wanted to beat him to death with the thick branch, really stopped. She looked at Xiao Hei with confusion in her eyes.

Xiao Hei explained, “Xiaocheng previously reached a cooperation with one of the Dragon King’s subordinates. This subordinate happens to work for the young lady and has pledged allegiance twice. We can barely confirm that he is trustworthy.”

But it wasn’t a hundred percent certain.

However, given the current situation, having someone help was undoubtedly the best option.

Xiao Hei put away the fruit knife and asked, “Then how can you prove you are Envoy Qiu’s subordinate?”

The man’s expression turned serious. “I know a secret about our boss. He really likes to take dumps, like leaving a mark by going to a place and dropping one. And when it’s urgent, it’s hard for him to hold it in. This is something only we, his close confidants, know.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hei completely put away the knife. “It seems you are indeed genuine.”

Leaving Su Tao beside them, completely bewildered.

He only said one sentence, and you believe him so quickly?

The man also knew now was not the time for idle chat, so he immediately explained why he appeared here.

All of this was thanks to the Envoy Qiu they loyally served.

As the contact between the young lady and the Dragon King Xiao Ming, Envoy Qiu was one of the few who could occasionally show his face around the young lady.

During a routine contact, Envoy Qiu accidentally overheard the young lady and the head maid, Song Liyin, talking outside the door.

The general content was that they had sent a new batch of people to directly kill Su Tao and Chi Xiaocheng.

Moreover, it had been decided that it would happen on their way home.

Hearing this, Envoy Qiu was greatly shocked.

He wanted to contact Chi Xiaocheng by phone, but remembered his phone was already monitored. If not for his habit of deleting a chat message right after sending it, plus changing Chi Xiaocheng’s contact name to “Stepmother,” he would have exposed himself as the mole when the monitoring happened.

Unable to contact by phone, Envoy Qiu could only hurriedly report to the young lady.

He expressed that he missed the Dragon King, felt uncomfortable if he didn’t go back to that remote mountain area to work for a day, and that he would also support the two little maids, then join in pursuing and killing Chi Xiaocheng and Su Tao, and kill them.

On the surface, it was a pursuit, but in reality, he was always paying attention to the situation.

But he was still a step too late. By the time he confirmed the situation, the two had already jumped into the water.

Envoy Qiu had no choice but to send his subordinates to search along the riverbank.

If they found anyone, they were to follow orders and provide support.

After saying this, the man added, “The boss instructed us that if we find you, we should follow your orders. Do you need me to contact the other brothers?”

Su Tao looked at Xiao Hei, initially wanting to instinctively ask for a solution.

But not knowing what she wanted, she paused for a moment, then lowered her head and thought independently. “If you can contact others, can you get a vehicle in here?”

“No, preferably a garbage truck!”

Su Tao’s eyes flashed. “All the garbage disposal vehicles in this area belong to the same company. Some work at night, some in the morning. This vehicle loads garbage here and can completely take us back to the residential area early the next morning.”

The man was stunned. “If that’s all, then no problem. I’ll have the brothers prepare immediately.”

“Thank you.”

Su Tao responded, then remembered something and asked Xiao Hei beside her, “Xi… Xiao Hei, what do you think?”

“No problem.”

After Xiao Hei replied, she watched the man make the phone call, paying attention the whole time to whether his words contained any coded messages.

After confirming there was no problem, Su Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This method was already the best she could think of.

This time, should we really be able to return home safely?

In the middle of the night, a garbage truck arrived at the park on time. The driver was also a subordinate of Envoy Qiu. He said to Su Tao and Chi Xiaocheng, “Sorry, to avoid exposing the plan, you can only stay inside for the night. The smell is a bit strong, please understand.

“There’s a garbage bin inside that has been cleaned internally. You hide inside it. Tomorrow, under the pretext of regularly replacing the bins, we will place the bin in your residential area. When you get out, just go home yourselves.”

“Okay!”

Although getting on the garbage truck would really leave them at others’ mercy.

But given the circumstances, this was the only way. With Xiao Hei secretly monitoring, if there really was a problem, they could hijack the truck and escape.

The night breeze brushed against their half-dry hair and rustled the branches, making a “swishing” sound.

Dark clouds in the sky obscured the moon, as if a heavy rain was coming.

“Xiaocheng, we’ll be safe once we get home.”

Su Tao whispered softly to the girl in her arms, then held her and climbed into the stinking garbage truck.

Fortunately, that garbage bin was indeed clean.

The vehicle started moving. Tonight, Jiuzhou City was like the rising thunder around, not peaceful.

And at 3 o’clock in the morning, the Jiuzhou City authorities issued a major announcement.

A Firearms Ban Order!

This was not issued for the ordinary public, but uniformly issued to all families, gangs, and various forces, large and small, in Jiuzhou City.

Although this world is filled with families and conglomerates, and their power is great, it doesn’t mean that even the authorities are completely controlled by these people.

Previously, one or two small incidents were fine.

An occasional gas explosion was acceptable, and terrorist attacks that could be quickly suppressed were also barely fine.

Sending some small gifts, finding a few scapegoats, and the matter would pass.

But now, it’s different.

Although the rules didn’t explicitly say it, the authorities, as the referee, tacitly allowed you to use a hidden weapon.

But in the end, you shove a Gatling gun into the authorities’ mouth and loudly promote your own Gatling gun here on the streets, letting the people around watch and have fun.

What is this if not a slap in the face?

Even a clay figure has a temper.

Keep the underground fights underground.

The authorities almost sent special agents to visit each family one by one, confirm their modern weapon situation, and draft agreements.

Song Liyin was also awakened by a knocking sound late at night.

She was wearing a set of yellow pajamas covered with cartoon pears and opened the door.

A young maid reported, “Sorry, Head Maid, for disturbing you so late. The Jiuzhou City authorities specifically came looking for the young lady.”

“In the middle of the night, so urgent?” The Head Maid raised an eyebrow.

The young maid said, “Yes, Xiao Ling and Xiao Lan caused too much trouble in the city district. The authorities came directly to demand an explanation. Their attitude is… very firm.”

Hearing this, Song Liyin knew it wasn’t Xiao Ling and Xiao Lan’s problem.

Rather, the World Will, which had taken action again with the purpose of necessarily killing Su Tao and Chi Xiaocheng, was getting impatient again.

It began to use its authority, constantly influencing the people it could influence to hunt down and kill those two girls.

Song Liyin curled her lips and said to the young maid, “Then ask the officials to wait a moment. I’ll go wake the young lady now.”

Sure enough, everything was exactly as the young lady predicted.
