Chapter 215: Crisis Unfolding

Facing the young man's enthusiastic invitation, Renji shook his head regretfully and said, "I'm sorry, I have an old friend in Dream City, and I plan to catch up with her while I'm there, so..."

 

Before Renji could finish his sentence, Keyji immediately showed an understanding expression, especially when he heard Renji referring to the "old friend" as "her."

 

"I see," Keyji responded, nodding in understanding. "That makes sense. I was wondering why Brother Renji would need to use the back door for an event like this. It's not easy to have a chance to visit someone familiar in a different place. I won't disturb your plans."

 

Seeing Keyji's expression, a mix of regret and envy towards himself, Renji didn't end the conversation there. Instead, he pretended to show curiosity and asked, "What about you Brother Keyji? It seems like this academic exchange doesn't offer much benefit to us. Why did you also use the back door to get in?"
