I was wrong! Let me explain!

After zoning out for a moment, Su Qun realized that he was already back at home. Before randomly entering the Night Battle out of the blue, he had originally intended to lie in bed and take a nap. But now, he was not sleepy at all!

Turning over and sitting up on his bed, he looked at the item in his hands.

An unopened box of female lingerie.

Since he could bring this item out of the scenario, it showed that this underwear really belonged to Night Raven!

'Then… Does this mean…'

Based on the investigation and detective skills he had learnt previously, Su Qun boldly derived a conclusion based on the 'evidence' at hand!

'Night Raven is actually a female!'

Su Qun grew serious. Recalling the fight against Night Raven, he became increasingly certain about his speculation. There was absolutely no doubt that the other party used an illusion at the end. Since the other party had illusionary powers, then that person must also have been in an illusionary disguise.

Furthermore, there was this box of lingerie that fell from Night Raven's cloak!

Night Raven must be a female!

Su Qun grew excited, feeling like he was getting closer to the truth.

This finding was not actually important. The important thing was…

"No, I have to take another look…"

Rolling over, he leapt up and went to his computer and opened an encrypted file. On it, was a document that the unit he was in, China Official Night Bureau, had issued a few days ago.

The description was very vague, but two points were mentioned, namely…

A mighty and powerful sword flash!

Also, that person seemed to appear in the scenario out of the blue!

Su Qun looked at the description of the document and read it carefully. It all started from one of the Night Bureau's scenario operations three days ago. At that time, the Night Bureau had gotten wind of the content of the rewards via some special means; the reward was a lost national historical cultural relic.

The Night Bureau had immediately issued an announcement on the Darknet, announcing their claim on the reward.

However, there were still people who forcibly participated and interfered in the scenario. In the end, an individual, who had never been on the participant list, released an immense sword flash with a single slash and took the cultural relic away .

Afterwards, it was verified multiple times that that person was indeed not among the participants, and the number of participants displayed by the system did not even change that day.

An additional participant had appeared out of thin air!

After reading this document, Su Qun looked at the name of the person who had signed off on the document.

Ye Sheng.

Picking up the phone, he hesitated over and over again, before making a phone call. A voice came through from the other end.

"What's up?"

"Sister Ye Sheng, there seems to be a clue about that person…"

"What?!"

…

…

The night was tranquil and the campus in nightfall had quieted down, only a few scattered lights were still turned on in some buildings.

In the Societies building, the school had already sent someone to clean up the shattered glass. When the surveillance footage had been pulled out and everyone only saw the glass shattering on its own, there had been quite a commotion.

However, it was now quiet. As night fell, all areas of the campus were quiet except for the dormitories.

In the women's changing room, the broken lamps and shattered glass had already been cleaned up. Aside from air leakage, its usage was not affected. However, in the darkness, a faintly glowing power bank was floating.

In the night, in the darkness, there was no one in the women's changing room, just a bizarre floating power bank.

Someone with a f*cking rich imagination would probably have immediately imagined an R-rated horror film!

However, the current situation right now was…

"This lucky pervert."

Floating outside Xia Yao's locker and looking at her underwear, Ling scoffed in disdain.

After Ling's failure to find Fang Ran, she could naturally infer what is going on with that guy.

'He must have been captured by the system again.'

"He probably has been killed by someone. Hopefully with that, he understands that Night Battle is not a joke."

Ling sneered coldly with a frown. 'I tried to teach him a lesson but failed. In the end, this guy with dumb luck is the final winner. Tsk.'

'Next time, I must find an opportunity to make him realize the horror of dying!'

Ling was getting a little bored. With Fang Ran gone, she did not even have the ability to browse the Darknet. Nonchalantly, she used her telekinesis to close the locker door. However, just when she closed the door…

"Lushan Rising Dragon… Ouch, f*ck!!!"

Something caused a loud clatter in the locker. After an impact that would make any bystanders who heard it cringe, a guy, who was only wearing underwear, fell out of the locker.

"Ahh~~~ I'm going to die of pain!"

Fang Ran clutched his right hand tightly with tears gushing out as he rolled on the floor in pain.

Ling quietly looked at this pervert who was only left with his underwear, wondering whether she should just rely on herself to fly back to the Arctic.

After a long while, Fang Ran gradually recovered from the agony of punching a metal cabinet. He then staggered to his feet. A night breeze wafted in from the windowless changing room, chilling him till he sprung to his feet in a split second.

Then, he and Ling exchanged gazes with each other for about three seconds.

…

"Ah!!! Power bank!!! I… I… I… I…!!!"

Instantly, he rushed towards Ling with tears rolling down his face, as if he had seen a straw to clutch at.

The next moment however, Ling viciously smacked his face!

"Stay away from me! Get lost, you pervert who only wears underwear! Are you that Nobita with the surname Nobi! Men shouldn't cry!" Ling roared.

"Uh…"

Only then did Fang Ran calm down. But, he could not help but fall to his knees and sat on his heels, looking as if he was taking the initiative to admit his mistake.

"Hah…" In the data space, Ling watched him while rubbing her temples, feeling that a headache was around the corner. Suppressing her urge to criticise him, she said,

"First of all, where are your clothes?"

"I accidentally touched someone else's item, and then my clothes were burnt to a crisp…"

Fang Ran covered his face, feeling too ashamed to respond to Ling's questions.

"Item? What item?"

With keen senses, Ling immediately picked up on the keyword from what Fang Ran had said.

"Uh… It's a Night Equipment…"

Fang Ran scratched his head,and gnashed his teeth in anger. He kept feeling that Big Brother A must have done it on purpose. 'What does he mean by I can't control it? If he can't control it, then why is my underwear still here?!'

'That guy must have done it on purpose!'

'Hmph! I curse that his love life will never go well!'

"Night Equipment?! A random instance to fight for a Night Equipment?!"

Ling reacted at once and asked.

"Uh, um… Yeah…"

Fang Ran's gaze was evasive. He could not help but look away, not daring to face the interrogation of his summoned beast.

"It actually turned out to be a special scenario to fight for a Night Equipment…"

Ling frowned and mumbled to herself. She had yet to mention Night Equipment to Fang Ran, because she felt that this newbie would not come into contact with something like Night Equipment so soon. To think that, this guy was able to randomly enter a Night Equipment scenario so early on?

"And then?"

Ling asked Fang Ran as she looked at this guy who was kneeling formally on the ground in his underwear.

With a guilty conscience, Fang Ran did not answer. Burying his face in his hands while wailing, he thundered furiously at Ling,

"Didn't you tell me that Night Battles are super dangerous! Didn't you say that it is life threatening! Why didn't you tell me earlier that nobody would die at all!"

Kneeling on the ground, Fang Ran pounded the floor and made an accusation while shedding blood and tears!

"F*ck, this is not in line with standard rational plots! In the novel, it is clearly the death of the protagonist's friend that spurs the protagonist on to work hard, why is it different with me!"

Ling was speechless.

She completely did not understand what this idiot was talking about.

"Since when did I tell you that people would die in a scene? And about it being life-threatening, that's pertaining to the thing that you need to do for me! As for the danger of Night Battles…"

Ling said coldly, "The danger of Night Battles comes from the actions of those people in reality after gaining their powers, threatening your life, family, and loved ones. Isn't that dangerous?"

When Fang Ran heard the word 'reality', he shuddered slightly in guilt.

However, Ling sharply noticed it. Her brows furrowed as she asked in suspicion,

"Could it be that you're in trouble?"

Guilty as charged, Fang Ran immediately turned his head away.

"Look at me!"

Ling immediately noticed that something was amiss and shouted. She then asked in disbelief,

"You… can't possibly have provoked someone who you can't afford to offend in your current situation, right? Let me tell you this. With my current situation, even one D-grader coming for you would be extremely problematic!"

Fang Ran's entire body shuddered again.

"You… what on earth…"

Ling threatened viciously. However, when she was midway through what she was saying, the Darknet alert sound that she had set, suddenly rang out.

As she could no longer receive information like before, Ling hence set a Darknet alert on certain information for herself. Since Fang Ran was back, she naturally connected to the Darknet.

Ling opened a page, and saw the harsh words written on it.

[In view of the fact that 'Night Raven' forcibly intervened in this special Night Equipment and used all sorts of despicable means, we have jointly put him on the public hitlist, and we will strive to kill him in every future scenario!]

Underneath this message, several Night Battle participants had left comments stating similar stances. Among which, the three people belonging to Midnight, Adversity and Night Bureau, were particularly obvious.

All of a sudden, Ling made an ominous association.

"Fang… Ran…!"

Ling suddenly called out Fang Ran's name very slowly, in a tone that was so terrifying; it sounded like the sinister tone of a devil conducting an interrogation.

"That Night Raven and you…"

"Your Royal Highness! I was wrong! Let me explain!"

Fang Ran was shocked to his senses and blurted out the most appropriate reply for this situation. What came next was of course Ling's extreme fury!

"You're asking to die!"
