Chapter 3819 Her Secret
In the end, Kaushik took Gleipnir to find the starworm.
As for why the star worm was in his dormitory?
Kaushik said that it was late at night and the star worm was a little tired, so he decided to sleep here for a night.
This statement was full of loopholes and could not stand up to scrutiny. However, Gleipnir did not ask further questions. She just looked worried, and when she glanced at Kaushik, she was alert and nervous.
This performance made Kaushik misunderstand that Gleipnir was not ignoring the details, but was afraid to ask.
After all, the starworm is still in his hands.
Even Gleipnir showed a certain degree of uneasiness. Anyone who goes to a stranger's house alone will feel this kind of uneasiness.
Kaushik opened his mouth and wanted to explain, but he found that Gleipnir took a few steps back as soon as he turned his head, and he closed his mouth again.
In the end, Kaushik gave up explaining and just said softly: "I am not a bad person."
Gleipnir laughed dryly. "It can be seen that anyone who is willing to take in a star worm is definitely not a bad person. By the way, I went to Prada Media today and met Yusup..."
Gleipnir deliberately used a dry tone when talking about Yusup. The context and logic before and after were not even related.
But the words imply: I have met Yusup and we know each other.
He was also secretly provoking Kaushik: I know your immediate superior, and if you have any bad intentions, you'd better think twice before you act.
Kaushik naturally understood what Gleipnir meant, but he just kept silent and led the way. If he turned around, he would probably see Gleipnir's meaningful smile on his face.
Although Kaushik did not see this scene, Angre saw it clearly.
He had thought that Luigi's acting was actually pretty good, but he didn't expect Gleipnir's acting was also very good. He completely acted out the worry, caution, fear, and a little bit of pretense.
Is this the human spirit who has lived for thousands of years?
Anyway, if Ingres were to play the role, he would definitely not be able to express such delicate emotions.
Kaushik's hostel was soon reached.
Kaushik pushed the door open, leaving it wide open without closing it, and walked straight to his bedroom.
As soon as the bedroom door was opened, Kaushik pointed at the starworm on the bed and motioned for Gleipnir to come and see for himself.
Gleipnir nodded and walked cautiously to the bedroom door. When he saw the starworm lying on the bed, he revealed a trace of emotion. He took two steps at a time and walked to the starworm's side, holding the starworm's hand, as if he wanted to confirm the starworm's condition.
But in fact, the moment Gleipnir touched the starworm, he focused his attention on the fairyland prompt in the text column and didn't care about the life or death of the starworm at all.
On the other side, Angre was also watching Kaushik’s bedroom.
Before Gleipnir touched the starworm, Angel had no way of predicting what kind of random mission she would receive. But when Gleipnir touched the starworm, power information that ordinary people could not see began to surge, and Angel immediately intercepted a small part of it.
When the intercepted information was parsed, Angel finally saw the random task that Gleipnir had received.
「Random Quest "Her Secret"」
"Mission Overview: When the fashion monster "Time Radio" passed by the Modern City, he found an interesting child named Wu Lulu. Wu Lulu has a secret, a secret that she herself doesn't know."
"Mission objective: Find out the secret of Wululu."
「目前进度:口供(0/1)、人证(0/1)、物证(0/1)」
"Countdown: 11:33:12"
"Countdown: 11:33:11"
"..."
When Angel intercepted the mission information, Gleipnir was also checking the mission.
When she finished reading the mission information and the mission objectives, she was completely confused.
Who is Wu Lulu? Even she herself doesn't know the secret, what does this mean?
Furthermore, to complete this task, we need to find “confessions, witnesses, and physical evidence”? Isn’t this really a case? Also, whose confession is it? Who is the witness related to? What exactly is physical evidence?
Anyway, when Gleipnir saw this task, his head was filled with rows of question marks.
Originally, Gleipnir was still acting out the worried and complicated performance when he met the starworm. But after seeing this strange task, his expression became a little tense and he froze for several seconds.
Fortunately, Kaushik was just standing far away at the bedroom door and didn't see Gleipnir's expression, otherwise...
Gleipnir was silent for a few seconds, and decided to put the mission information aside for the time being and solve the problem at hand first.
Thinking of this, Gleipnir adjusted his expression and turned to look at Kaushik.
"I just watched, and it seems that he is not just resting..." Grapni paused, and asked carefully: "Before falling asleep, did Starworm go to see any performances? Or was he near a stage?"
Gleipnir acted as if he wanted to say something but didn't dare to say more.
Kaushik naturally understood what Gleipnir meant. He was silent for a moment and said, "Are you asking if he is being targeted by the fashion monster?"
Gleipnir was stunned for a second, then made an expression of enlightenment: "You know about fashion monsters?"
Kaushik: "I know... Although the magic world has been hiding, there are many things that cannot be hidden. If you live long enough, you will naturally know some secrets."
Gleipnir heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. "Since you know what I mean, I won't hide it. From the look of the star worm, it doesn't look like it's simply sleeping. It looks like it's being targeted by a fashion monster..."
Kaushik: "I think so too. But he was not involved in any activities or stage before he fell asleep. He was..."
Kaushik paused suddenly.
Gleipnir asked curiously, "What is it?"
"It's... nearby, there's no stage around." Kaushik originally wanted to say that the starworm was in his bedroom at that time, but he didn't know how to explain why the starworm came to his bedroom.
Besides, it was too troublesome to explain, so Kaushik simply skipped it and said, "I saw him sleeping on the floor, and there was no one else around. I couldn't just let him sleep on the floor."
"I just moved him to my bed in the dorm."
“I see…” Gleipnir pretended to be “thinking” and glanced at the starworm from time to time.
After a moment, Gleipnir said, "I originally thought that if the starworm was asleep, I could just wake him up. But given his current condition, I guess there's no way to wake him up."
"I can't move him by myself." Gleipnir looked at Kaushik and asked, "Can I ask you a favor?"
Kaushik: "Do you want the Starworm to stay with me first?"
Gleipnir nodded somewhat embarrassedly. "Yes. I actually thought about finding someone to take the starworm away, but considering that the starworm is very likely to be in the process of challenging, it is not good to disturb it, so... can we let him stay here first?"
Kaushik did not refuse and nodded: "Okay, I happen to be on the night shift today, so I don't have to compete with him for the bed."
In fact, even if Gleipnir didn't ask him, Kaushik planned to keep the starworm here.
After all, the challenge that Starworm is currently taking on can be considered a "test" given to him by Kaushik.
If the star worm can pass the test and gain the recognition of the "Time Radio", Kaushik will be happy to see it happen. If the star worm fails the test, Kaushik will also need to seal the "Time Radio" in time to prevent it from escaping.
Therefore, the starworms cannot leave their perception range no matter what, at least not before the mission is completed.
Now Gleipnir took the initiative to propose that the starworms continue to stay here, which happened to be what he wanted, so naturally he would not refuse.
Seeing Kaushik nod, Gleipnir breathed a sigh of relief and exchanged a few more words with him. He also asked Kaushik indirectly whether he knew some inside information about the "Prada Beauty Show".
However, Kaushik shook his head: "Although I work at Prada Media, I am just a security guard. I don't know much about many things and I don't pay attention to them."
Gleipnir could sense that Kaushik was most likely lying.
But it doesn’t matter.
She inquired about the "Prada Beauty Show" because of the "Sacrifice of Light" that had not yet been found.
His original plan was to go to Yusup to ask, because according to Xiaolu's words, Yusup would most likely "sell" this information.
But I happened to meet Kaushik, so I thought of asking him.
Kaushik doesn't want to say, so he continues to look for Yusup.
Thinking of this, Gleipnir did not stay any longer. He said he would come back tomorrow to check on the starworms, then stood up and said goodbye.
Kaushik looked at Gleipnir's receding back, some inexplicable thoughts flashing through his eyes.
"Prada beauty show..." Kaushik muttered in a low voice, with a regretful expression; but soon, he shook his head and put aside the unreasonable thoughts.
Finally, he took a deep look at the still sleeping Starworm, then left the dormitory and returned to the security room.
……
Gleipnir had already arrived at the fourth floor, which was the headquarters of Prada Media.
Although it was almost midnight, Prada Media was already brightly lit.
There were also many "models" queuing up to register at the door. These models, who were wearing revealing and damaged clothes, were probably the only ones free at this time.
Gleipnir glanced at the crowded interior of the company, but did not go in immediately. Instead, he turned and walked to the balcony on the fourth floor.
There was no one on the balcony, only a few rusty holographic projectors, which were projecting various promotional advertisements onto the walls outside the building, and also creating a colorful light pollution in the dark and gloomy sky.
The "creaking" sound during projection also indicates that the equipment is very old and needs to be replaced.
But Prada Media is short of funds and it is obviously impossible to replace these barely usable equipment now.
Gleipnir came to a deserted place and whispered, "Are you there?"
Soon, Angel's voice reached Gleipnir's ears: "I'm here."
"Did you see the mission I just accepted?" Gleipnir asked.
Angel: "I see... I feel that this mission..."
"Not so easy." Gleipnir said the second half of the sentence for him.
Angel: “I think so too.”
This mission was probably the most concise and confusing random mission Angel had ever received.
In any previous mission, the overview would always introduce some things, such as explaining the background, specific goals, or some intelligence.
But this time there was nothing.
The only valid information at the moment is Wu Lulu's coordinates.
Just like the previous mission that Angel took on, "Who makes the clown laugh?", the real-time coordinates of the target person will be provided.
The same is true for this mission. Although the mission information does not state where Wululu is, you can simply click on Wululu's name to view her coordinates in real time.
"If you want to complete this mission, you will most likely have to contact Wu Lulu, look for any abnormalities in her, and then slowly carry out the mission..."
Gleipnir felt a headache when he said this: "Just listening to it, it doesn't seem like a task that can be completed in a short period of time."
Because Wu Lulu herself doesn't know her own secret, if they want to complete this task, they must personally investigate and visit to find clues.
It's like a sheriff solving a crime.
But even if the sheriff solved the case, it would not be completed in two or three hours. What's more, they were not as convenient as the sheriff to investigate the identity of the clues.
This gave Gleipnir a headache: "I feel like I might have to spend a lot of money."
Angel: "Leave this task to me. I'll try and see if I can complete it."
Gleipnir: "Do you have any clues?"
Angel shook his head: "There are no clues yet, but I have a God's perspective, and I can use illusions to a certain extent. This kind of exploratory mission is more suitable for me than you."
Gleipnir also agreed with Angel's words. Indeed, if this task was given to her, she could only look for clues step by step, but Angel could take a shortcut.
Gleipnir even felt that if he and Angel went on this mission together, they might become a burden.
But Gleipnir still said, "If you need my help, call me anytime."
Angel: "Okay. I'm almost at District 9 North now. Let's meet at Prada Media later. I'll give you the Modern Card then, and you can try to contact Yusup and buy the information about the 'Sacrifice of Light'."
"I will go find Starworm to accept the mission, and then go find Wu Lulu after accepting the mission."
Gleipnir nodded: "Okay, leave the information about the Light Sacrifice to me."
After ending the call, Gleipnir thought for a moment and went downstairs directly, preparing to wait for Angel to arrive on the first floor.
On the other side, Angel had already gotten off the Silver Wing Express and was now standing on the side of the platform, looking at the projected city map.
His eyes kept darting left and right, and soon locked onto a location.
A building near Pro Street in South District 3.
This is the current coordinates of Wu Lulu.
However, Angel's gaze did not stay at Wululu's coordinates for long, but slowly moved to a large area next to Pro Street.
This remote area is home to the most famous university in the modern city——
Modern Middle School.
