Chapter 720: 425, Social Death and Anti-Social Death_2

Qing Chen laughed, “Don’t belittle yourself, being on this path means you are already among the finest in the world. You possess the strongest willpower and the most steadfast beliefs.”

Hu Xiaoniu was not mediocre.

How could someone who could climb a steep mountain barehanded be mediocre?

It was just that the people around Hu Xiaoniu were too outstanding.

Qing Chen always believed that this classmate would someday complete the eight challenges and unlock the genetic locks within his body.

Qing Chen laughed, “Let Zhang Tianzhen go back with you.”

“Ah?” Hu Xiaoniu was stunned for a moment, “But he still needs to help you here.”

“No need,” Qing Chen shook his head, “You need a Protector. Communication is so easy nowadays, just mentioning it in the group chat is enough, and it only takes an hour and a half to fly from Los Angeles to Haicheng, or five and a half hours by high-speed train. If you want to meet, you can do so anytime. You and Zhang Tianzhen still have to follow the Heng Society in the Inner World; it’s good to look out for each other.”

“Yeah,” Hu Xiaoniu nodded.

Mentioning farewells made everyone a bit sentimental.

Jiang Xue cooked a full table of dishes to send off Hu Xiaoniu and Zhang Tianzhen, while XiaoTongyun gave her favorite bunny keychain and penguin keychain to each of them.

Liu Dezhu told Hu Xiaoniu, “If there’s any problem, call the boss, and our Daytime members will rush over immediately.”

Jiang Xue’s eyes were red, “Come back and visit when you’re resting.”

Nan Gengchen said, “Aunt Jiang Xue, the fish you made today was really delicious.”

…

…

Qing Chen only made a brief stop in Los Angeles before leaving again.

The Daytime members were divided into three groups, one with Nan Gengchen and Liu Dezhu, another with Luo Wanya and his family, and the last one was Qing Chen alone.

The first two groups drove to Zheng City, while Qing Chen took a high-speed train by himself.

This time, at the Time Traveler Federation, it felt like all kinds of strange and supernatural beings were about to emerge, Qing Chen felt that it was better for him to stay in the shadows, as it would help prevent Daytime from being put on the defensive.

The high-speed train from Los Angeles to Zheng City only took half an hour. Qing Chen checked in and went to the restroom. When he appeared again, he had changed into the appearance of Qing Yuan.

By now, in the competition for “Shadow”, Qing Chen had already somewhat understood Qing Shi, Qing Wen, Qing Wu, Qing Yi, and Qing Xing, but Qing Yuan had never appeared, nor had he reported to Intelligence Department Three.

This feeling was not good, Qing Chen decided to personally look for clues related to the other party.

So, this was also his purpose for their trip to Zheng City.

It didn’t matter if the other party was hiding.

By adopting the other party’s face, if someone had seen Qing Yuan, they might take the initiative to approach him.

Now, Qing Chen just needed to find someone from the Outer World who knew Qing Yuan.

For him, just a small lead was enough to unravel everything.

After boarding the high-speed train, Qing Chen picked up his phone to refresh the news.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind.

“Senior, our seats are 25C, 25B, 25A, just walk towards the middle.”

Without turning around, Qing Chen knew it was Tuan Zi…

So, traveling with Tuan Zi must be Sun Chu Ci and others.

Qing Chen was amused; the world was really small. Perhaps he really was fated to cross paths with these people? But what were they doing in Los Angeles?

He glanced at his own seat, 26C, right opposite to their seats…

As Sun Chu Ci and others came over with their backpacks and sat down,

while placing their luggage, Tuan Zi said, “Senior, we came to Los Angeles and didn’t even see Qing Chen, are we just going back like that?”

Sun Chu Ci smiled, “He’s a big shot in Daytime; he doesn’t have time to bother with us. Now that we’re back in the Outer World, we shouldn’t disturb his life. Some Time Travelers keep the Inner World and Outer World very separate, usually focusing on enjoying life once they return to the Outer World.”

Qing Chen was startled, as they sat down, they started discussing him right away.

Is this the legendary talking behind someone’s back to their face?

The volume of Tuan Zi’s conversation was quite low, but with Qing Chen’s hearing, even if you left your vocal cords at home, he’d still catch what you were saying.

“Alright,” sighed Tuan Zi, “since the time travel isn’t many days away, we might see him in the Inner World. Don’t mention it, but I feel that many celebrities in the Outer World aren’t as handsome as him. It’d be nice to see his face every day. When can we cling to his coattails? Just for his looks, we have to cling to him.”

Sun Chu Ci smiled helplessly, “You weren’t boy-crazy before.”

“That’s because I hadn’t met Qing Chen,” Tuan Zi said carelessly.

Tuan Zi wasn’t considered attractive, rather an average-looking girl.

Very thin, dark-skinned, her personality was much like a boy’s, which is why she was willing to run around the wilderness with Sun Chu Ci and others, dressing like a tomboy too.

Tuan Zi thought for a moment then explained, “Actually, it’s not the looks that I care about. It’s just that every time I recall how he saved us in the wilderness, it feels incredibly thrilling, like something out of a movie.”

Alongside, a fellow male traveler exclaimed in a lowered voice, “And that scene when he left the barbecue store, wow, a crowd clustered around him as he left, it felt like I was watching Lee Jungjae in ‘New World’! The subordinate boldly striding out, two rows of men in black suits intimidating the bystanders into silence, it was stunning!”

Qing Chen sat quietly, his expression slightly peculiar.

Listening directly to others’ “behind the back” comments seemed to be a very strange experience.

It was quite thrilling.

Just then, Tuan Zi chuckled excitedly, “Right! He probably doesn’t know yet that we already know he’s a Time Traveler. Haha, next time we see him, we should deliberately ask if he’s a Time Traveler to see how he’ll lie. Sounds fun.”

Qing Chen: Hehe, now I know.

He looked at Tuan Zi, thinking this guy really has such thoughts, actually wanting to see Qing Chen’s social death scene…

Qing Chen, observing Sun Chu Ci and others whispering, smiled and said, “Are you Time Travelers?”

“Huh?” Tuan Zi was startled.

Sun Chu Ci was also taken aback, then said after a moment of silence, “No.”

He thought, considering they spoke in such a low voice and the car was so noisy, the others shouldn’t have heard them.

Could this be a scam?

Qing Chen smiled and said, “Really not Time Travelers? I thought you were companions here to attend the Time Traveler Federation.”

Sun Chu Ci and others looked at each other, the young man across them openly admitting his identity as a Time Traveler!

With that, they dropped the act.

Sun Chu Ci curious, asked, “Are you a local Time Traveler from Los Angeles City?”

“Yes,” Qing Chen replied with a smile.

Tuan Zi became interested, “Then do you know anyone from Daytime?”

Qing Chen smiled and said, “Heard of them, but not very familiar. They’re quite mysterious and rarely leave any information in the outer world.”

“Oh,” Tuan Zi sounded a bit disappointed.

Qing Chen, still smiling, queried, “Why, do you know people from Daytime? Daytime isn’t something everyone can just claim to know.”

Tuan Zi bristled, “We know them, we’re pretty close with Daytime’s Qing Chen!”

She was about to continue when Sun Chu Ci stepped on her foot.

Qing Chen’s smile deepened, “Then you must be quite influential too. How about we exchange contact information? If something happens to me in Los Angeles City, I could contact you.”

Tuan Zi hesitated, “We’re not from Los Angeles City, we’re Time Travelers from Zheng City. We were originally here to tour Los Angeles City, but because of the Time Traveler Federation, we had to return to Zheng City earlier. We only got to see Longmen Grottoes and the Ancient Tomb Museum, we didn’t even get a chance to visit White Horse Temple. I heard White Horse Temple is different from other temples, if you can’t afford a ticket, just talk to the ticket-checking monk about your difficulties and they’ll let you in without one, is that true?”

“It’s true,” Qing Chen nodded, “White Horse Temple is somewhat purer compared to most temples.”

Suddenly, Sun Chu Ci questioned, “Which school are you attending in Los Angeles City?”

Qing Chen explained, “I’m from the Los Angeles Foreign Language School, quite a few members from Daytime are alumni there.”

Sun Chu Ci asked, “What color is the restroom next to the academic building?”

Qing Chen laughed, “The public restroom isn’t near the academic building at all, it’s miles away, the students always complain about the school’s design.”
