Chapter 016 The White-Haired Witch's 4th Hour
Indeed, strategic warfare is all about waiting to see who makes more mistakes.
A battle of wits!
Upon reaching the shore, Luo Xi and her sister Luo Xin got into a very comfortable car. Luo Xi, lying comfortably in the back seat, thought to herself.
"Amazing!" In stark contrast to Li Chen in the passenger seat, the young driver, rather unrestrained and carefree, not only showed no fear but also exclaimed in admiration, "Does your magic have other properties?"
"To be precise, from the time we trapped you and your sister Luo Xin there until you're sitting in the car now, it's been 14 hours and 34 minutes," the unruly young man exclaimed with amazement. "Can you tell me how you did it?"
"You flatter me," Luo Xi said with her eyes closed. "Modern military weaponry is indeed formidable, but you've run into me."
"However, it's mainly because you guys gave me the opportunity. I won't go into the details; it's a secret."
They could catch her and her sister Luo Xin off guard, even if they were caught off guard.
Luo Xi could also use the intelligence gap to plan his escape.
A body of water infused with magic.
The drone that was destroyed after delivering food.
A small boat rowed by.
The witches I've encountered.
And Li Chen.
Their actions have given us too many opportunities.
This gave Luo Xi far too many backup plans.
"According to the investigation information and files, Luo Xi, 12 years old, male, is a student in Class 3, Grade 7 at Dachang No. 1 Middle School, and has excellent grades," the young driver began. "You're him, right? Can men become witches?"
"For a 12-year-old to have such a meticulous plan and the method to threaten us, we underestimated you," the young driver sighed.
Yes, Luo Xi used threats to achieve her goal.
When her sister Luo Xin's various pleas went unanswered, and even food had to be exchanged unfairly, Luo Xi decided to use force to intimidate her.
How can she achieve the best results? After the other party broke up with her, she devised several steps.
The first step is to use the magical water droplets left on Bai Nuo to destroy her equipment. A free Bai Nuo is bound to make a scene.
Even if the other party has other ways to restrict Bai Nuo, it doesn't matter. The main purpose of this step is to make the other party suspect that she has the ability to remotely activate magic.
In the second step, Luo Xi used magical water droplets to knock down some of the people monitoring her and her sister, in order to deepen their suspicions from the first step and at the same time tell them that the lives of everyone here were in her hands.
The third step was something Luo Xi originally had other plans for, but the other party was just too powerful.
Wherever the young man named Li Chen took Bai Nuo, he left behind water droplets imbued with her magic.
Based on the information transmitted by Bai Nuo, Luo Xi used magical water droplets to knock down several important figures.
By taking down all these people, Luo Xi was showing them that she had the ability to kill them.
After all, the other side had already investigated her magical property—cutting—almost thoroughly.
This ability to act directly on matter is the most likely to cause harm.
The key lies in another magical property: Enlightenment!
The combination of these two magical properties makes it perfectly suited for modern short-to-medium range unmanned weapons in modern warfare!
Not killing anyone is a way of telling the other party that she is rational and has the intention to cooperate.
A lose-lose situation is bad for both sides.
Luo Xi did not cause any fatal harm to these people, which was already the greatest kindness Luo Xi could show.
Human nature follows only one thing: to seek advantage and avoid harm.
When faced with an unknown crisis, people will subconsciously prioritize their own safety.
Given the uncertainty about whether Luo Xi's magic possessed other characteristics, and considering that Luo Xi might be capable of killing many people, even the main person in charge, the other side indeed retreated.
Although she didn't like this approach, she had no other choice.
In a sense, she prefers a fair and square fight!
The car soon arrived at a hotel, and Luo Xi felt quite relieved as she watched the pedestrians along the way.
"Give us a room on a lower floor, but with a good view," Luo Xi said to the young driver. "I quite admire you. What's your name?"
"Yang Jian," the unrestrained young man replied as he got off the car.
Yang Jian suddenly pulled out a pistol, which seemed to have a silencer. Under Luo Xi's questioning gaze, Yang Jian shot Li Chen in the leg.
"I'm sorry," Yang Jian said, looking at Luo Xi. "I didn't mean to offend you at all. He was in charge of the operation last night, not me."
"It may sound like I'm shifting the blame, but even so, I'm not shirking my responsibility."
"This is the truth as I know it," Yang Jian said, raising his pistol and pointing it at his temple. "Whether it's my life or his, you can take it. I only ask that you don't harm the ordinary people of Dachang City."
"It's not that bad," Luo Xi sighed, without even looking at Li Chen, "At least my sister Luo Xin and I are fine, let's just treat it as a real-life competition."
Luo Xi is not ready to be an enemy of the entire world, nor is he prepared to confront a fully-fledged military force.
This time, let's consider it a small victory!
"What my sister ate," Luo Xi pondered the potential problems, then turned to look at Li Chen, "is there anything wrong with it?"
"I don't know, I..." Li Chen said, his voice trembling.
"Never mind," Luo Xi interrupted Li Chen, turning to look at her younger sister Luo Xin, "Activate your magic power, let it act throughout your body, and use its magical properties on the food you eat!"
Remembering the witch named Bai Nuo, Luo Xi suddenly spoke to Yang Jian, "It's not like there's no price to pay. I want that witch, that witch named Bai Nuo."
"We need to ask the headquarters for approval," Yang Jian said, his expression grim. "They probably won't agree."
With that, Yang Jian made a phone call, said a lot, and then turned to Luo Xi to report the result, "The boss agreed. Wait a while, and this witch will be sent to you."
Bai Nuo should rightfully be a member of her Visionaries Group!
Luo Xi glanced at Yang Jian, then gave a smile that was hard to decipher.
Yang Jian's performance demonstrates the great value of Bai Nuo.
But the club agreed...
Are there still any conspiracies or tricks involved?
She was not afraid.
Sure enough, everyone firmly believes that they possess wisdom.
Fine, only by subduing them with force can she and her sister find peace.
"Arrange some food for us and leave it at the hotel entrance. Don't disturb me and my sister afterwards..." Luo Xi instructed Yang Jian upon arriving at the hotel. "As for that witch, Bai Nuo, bring her to me at 3 PM."
After watching Yang Jian walk away, Luo Xi glanced at her younger sister Luo Xin and said, "Someone will bring food over in a bit. After that, if anyone gets close to you, break their legs, just like you broke my arm. Also, wake me up at two o'clock this afternoon..."
As she spoke, Luo Xi finally couldn't hold on any longer and collapsed to the ground.
Forced to sit up, Luo Xi closed her eyes to rest on the bed.
