Queen of Hearts(1)

In the detective agency, Tang Xiuxiu was still in charge of minding the store. She was still in that posture, leaning against the sofa and scrolling through her phone.

"Ding~ Dong~" Just then, the doorbell rang.

"Are there still customers at this time?" Tang Xiuxiu muttered and got up to open the door.

She was also puzzled. Logically speaking, no one would come to the detective after nightfall. After all, which detective would go out to investigate at night? Even if it's to find a lost pet, it's not easy to find.

She glanced at the surveillance camera hanging on the wall. After confirming that there was only a woman dressed as a white-collar worker outside, Tang Xiuxiu opened the door.

"Hello. What can I do for you?" She asked, and at the same time, her gaze quickly swept over the female white-collar worker.

Black hair, about 1.7 meters tall, weighing about 50 kilograms, very beautiful, and her skin was well-maintained...

"Can I come in and talk?" The female white-collar worker didn't seem to be surprised that it was a girl of about thirteen or fourteen who opened the door. She said with a worried look in her eyes.

Tang Xiuxiu saw the emotion in her eyes. While sighing in her heart that "her eyes are really beautiful", she nodded.

After letting the female white-collar worker into the detective agency, Tang Xiuxiu sat back in her original seat, and the other party sat opposite her.

"Can you tell me about your commission?" Tang Xiuxiu's tone was still flat, without showing any emotion.

"My commission..." The female white-collar worker lowered her head, and her mood became downcast. But then she showed a smile, a somewhat cruel smile.

Tang Xiuxiu also saw the change in her expression. Frowning, she sensed something was wrong and was ready to use her ability to subdue the woman at any time.

"My commission..." The female white-collar worker raised her head and showed her not-so-beautiful smile to the little girl sitting opposite.

"I want you and your investigation team members to offer the finale to this wonderful drama!"

The moment the words fell, there was a commotion on the second floor of the detective agency. Just a second later, a beautiful figure rushed down from the second floor.

"Xiuxiu!" Jiang Yun, who flew over from the women's clothing store next door, shouted anxiously.

Jiang Yun, who liked to use her ability to "eavesdrop" on the surrounding sounds when she had nothing to do, had already noticed the woman when she was still in the café. At first, she just thought the woman had a nice voice and paid special attention to her. But when she heard a man who came to strike up a conversation with the woman suddenly stop talking halfway and then directly follow the woman's order to return to his seat, she realized that this woman was extraordinary and kept a close watch on her.

After hearing that the woman actually knocked on the door of their detective agency, she felt that something was wrong, and as expected, something happened.

After flying to the first floor of the detective agency and seeing that Tang Xiuxiu had a calm expression and a steady breath and wasn't injured, Jiang Yun heaved a sigh of relief. Then she turned her gaze to the female white-collar worker and quietly released a sound wave.

Although she didn't know what the woman meant by "offering the finale to this wonderful drama", she understood that it was definitely not a good thing. So she took the initiative to attack, planning to subdue the woman first, regardless of the consequences.

However, this infrasonic wave that was supposed to "lock on the head" and make an adult faint on the spot disappeared suddenly when it was infinitely close to the woman, almost reaching the point of being face to face. It disappeared without any sign or trace, as if it was sucked away by an invisible creature that fed on sound waves, just like sucking noodles. "Oh, this lady doesn't seem to want to participate in my drama." The female white-collar worker put away her exaggerated smile and replaced it with a polite and elegant smile.

Jiang Yun didn't answer the woman's words. Instead, she continuously released infrasonic waves secretly and at the same time transmitted her voice to Tang Xiuxiu:

"Xiuxiu! What are you standing there for! This woman next to you is not an ordinary person! She is most likely a! Hurry up and take action!"

"It seems that this lady really doesn't welcome me, and she keeps attacking me... What a pity... But since that's the case, Miss Tang Xiuxiu, you can replace me and persuade your good companion." The female white-collar worker had an obvious look of regret in her eyes and said in very standard Chinese, but there was a word in Japanese mixed in.

As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Xiuxiu turned her gaze to Jiang Yun, and a layer of light purple glow appeared in her eyes.

The next second, Jiang Yun was stunned to find that the surrounding environment had changed. It was no longer the first floor of the detective agency but a primeval forest shrouded in thick fog.

"Xiuxiu?" Jiang Yun couldn't believe that her colleague and friend who had worked with her for many years would attack her. She was so shocked that her voice trembled.

Because of this, when a sweeping kick suddenly appeared in front of her, she didn't react in time and was kicked flying, hitting a big tree behind her.

Feeling the bursts of colicky pain in her abdomen, Jiang Yun's mind turned even faster, and then a flash of inspiration came to her.

Then, when another kick suddenly came towards her, she dodged it in a thrilling way and shouted:

"I understand! You are the woman in red who makes people commit suicide that the captain and the others are chasing after! And your ability is hypnosis! You hypnotized Xiuxiu!"

"Oh, you've figured it out?" The female white-collar worker chuckled:

"But strictly speaking, this can't be called 'hypnosis'. It should be called 'consciousness modification' or 'cognitive modification'. After all, this little sister is also a psychic superpower user and has 'spiritual ability resistance'. If I directly hypnotize her, the effect won't be good. It's more convenient and direct to modify her consciousness and cognition.

"Oh, by the way, Miss Jiang doesn't need to keep pressing the alarm button. To prevent the 'finale' from being disturbed by irrelevant people, I specially placed a 'soundproof stone' and a'signal jammer' outside before knocking on the door. See how kind I am."

After saying these words, the female white-collar worker ignored Jiang Yun, who was dodging Tang Xiuxiu's punches and kicks and attacking herself with resentful looks and various sound waves. She supported her right elbow with her left hand and placed her three fingers on her side cheek, pretending to be thinking. During this time, her cheeks were slightly puffed up, adding a bit of cuteness to her charm.

All the sound wave attacks were ineffective, and this situation made Jiang Yun even more terrified.

She could feel that there seemed to be an invisible and transparent film on the woman, and when her sound waves touched this film, they would be completely absorbed by it, leaving no trace!

"I've decided. It's too boring to hypnotize you directly. Although there isn't much time left for the 'finale', it's okay to have a little fun." After a while, the female white-collar worker decided something while talking to herself.

"But before that, let me introduce myself..." She took a step back and bowed to Jiang Yun, who was struggling to avoid Tang Xiuxiu's attacks in the narrow space, with a smile on her face.

"I'm from the 'Ace' organization, the second seat of the 'Thirteen Supreme Seats'—Sakikawa Kokoro. I'm here to greet you. My current realm is 'Vertical and Horizontal', a Heavenly Path traveler, and my code name in the organization is...

"The Queen of Hearts."
