Chapter 1393

~7 min read 1,267 words

Aunt Jizi felt weary at heart and let out a soft sigh.

In any case, she wasn't afraid of Mo Li running off.

……

Meanwhile, on March 7th's side, she was rubbing her cheek that had just been pinched while continuing to push forward with the main storyline.

With Tingyun leading the way and the assistance of Diting, they quickly found clues regarding Kafka.

But as they tracked them, they realized…

The other party seemed to be playing hide-and-seek with them… These clues were clearly left behind by Kafka on purpose.

"Damn it…" March 7th looked at a lipstick left behind by the other party and said indignantly: "This woman is clearly provoking us!"

"I can already imagine the mysterious expression on that woman's face when she left these clues—"

"Saying, word by word, 【Come, catch, me】."

Stelle nodded blankly: "As expected of a Stellaron Hunter."

March 7th rolled her eyes at Stelle: "You don't think I'm complimenting her, do you?"

"After all, she's a wanted criminal with a massive bounty from the Interastral Peace Corporation, yet no one has ever been able to bring her to justice~" Tingyun smiled gently:

"We, on the other hand, have become the prey being secretly observed by her."

"However, we should be very close to her now. Benefactor, without further ado, let's move quickly."

But they hadn't gone far before they discovered another "treasure chest" left by Kafka.

"This woman is really so leisurely…" March 7th stomped her foot.

【Cheese prepared for the little mice scurrying in the maze~】

Seeing the words on the note, March 7th was even angrier, yet she could do nothing about it.

But that wasn't all that made her angry.

Tingyun's brows furrowed slightly, and Diting, who had been leading the way, also stopped in its tracks.

"The scent has vanished…"

March 7th puffed out her cheeks, feeling like she had nowhere to vent her frustration…

And just then, a woman's voice came from above.

"When the prey's tracks suddenly disappear, the hunter should be careful—"

This voice was too familiar, too distinctive.

The players immediately grew tense.

Sure enough, as Tingyun and the others looked up, they saw Kafka leading a few… Cloud Knights, looking down at the group below with great interest.

"—Because that is often a sign that the hunter-prey relationship has reversed~"

"These Cloud Knights haven't fallen to Mara-Struck… What did you do to them?"

"Just a little bit of suggestion~ Letting them 【Listen to me】 speak, that's all~" Kafka's lips curled into a faint smile, her gaze resting lightly on Stelle, seemingly overflowing with a hint of maternal affection:

"You know this better than anyone~"

"Alright, this location isn't quite right~ The Diviner has a long way to go, let's meet again further ahead~"

After speaking, Kafka turned gracefully and walked away with a leisurely gait.

The few Cloud Knight soldiers controlled by her 【Spirit Whisper】 stepped forward, blocking the path of the group chasing Kafka.

With no other choice, the group had to hold back their strength and knock these Cloud Knights unconscious.

"Charge!! Don't let her run away~"

March 7th, filled with fire, ran at the very front.

When the group caught up to Kafka again, they realized… the other party seemed to have stayed there on purpose to wait for them.

At least, the players vaguely sensed it.

Surrounded by so many people, yet she remained unhurried…

Moreover, as if she had lost a game, she teased: "Welcome, members of the Astral Express, you've caught me~ (Laughs)"

To be this arrogant, she was either incredibly powerful or doing this intentionally for a specific purpose.

Stelle: "You have the right to remain silent…"

Kafka just gave Stelle a playful smile and said nothing.

"Show your cards, Kafka. Our arrival here must be part of your plan." Having played wits with Otto for so long, Welt's keenness was naturally beyond that of a youngster like March 7th.

He had also realized that Kafka was intentionally guiding them to this place.

"Not a plan, but 【The Future】." Kafka shook her head gently:

"We intervene in countless possible futures to turn the best 【Future】 into reality."

"Don't overestimate us, Welt. Stellaron Hunters are merely 【Slaves of Destiny】."

March 7th: "The best future? The best future for whom? I don't believe you'd think of others."

Kafka: "The whole universe—do you believe it? Of course: for me."

Stelle: "Surrender and explain yourself to the Xianzhou."

Welt also tried to persuade her: "Since you claim innocence, you might as well explain it to the Xianzhou. The Luofu General will make the judgment."

Kafka had mentioned on the train before that the Stellaron crisis on the Xianzhou was not the work of the Stellaron Hunters, but the Xianzhou mistakenly thought it was.

That was why Stelle and Welt said this here.

As for their well-intentioned advice, Kafka shook her head in refusal, stating that she hated following others' pace.

In the end, a fight was unavoidable.

Her style of doing things was truly unfathomable.

If things had reached this point and you still claimed the Stellaron Hunters had no ulterior motive, who would believe that?

However, halfway through the fight, Kafka suddenly stopped.

"Finally here~"

She suddenly raised her dual pistols and fired a burst of shots into the sky.

The barrage rained down toward Miss Miss Fuxuan, who had suddenly appeared in mid-air.

Just then, time seemed to freeze. Miss Miss Fuxuan tapped her toe lightly on the tip of a bullet, and a purple light screen expanded outward.

"Child's play."

Her expression was solemn, her third eye flashing with a dazzling purple glow. With a slight flick of her fingers, she changed the trajectory of the rain-like bullets.

"Your every move is within the divination of my third eye~"

After speaking, time around them resumed its flow.

The rain-like barrage immediately collided and canceled each other out with a "pitter-patter."

Finally, Miss Miss Fuxuan landed gracefully.

In the eyes of March 7th and the others, this little pink figure had just been as elegant as a butterfly among flowers, neutralizing Kafka's barrage in the blink of an eye.

It was truly incredibly cool.

As for the players, they were even more stunned by Miss Miss Fuxuan's entrance.

This little pink figure looked cute, yet she always maintained the air of an expert, creating a contrast that made her seem more like a mascot unsuited for combat.

But now it seemed, this little pink figure was actually quite formidable…

The live stream chat was filled with "666."

"Divination Commission, Miss Miss Fuxuan."

She turned around, her gaze casually sweeping over the disarmed Kafka: "I am taking over the prisoner now."

……

"Huh?" Stelle was stunned: "Caught just like that?"

"The plot is a bit strange, isn't it? Kafka surrendered the moment she saw Miss Miss Fuxuan?"

The live stream chat was also filled with many comments from people who didn't quite understand but felt it was impressive.

Fortunately, Aunt Jizi spoke up to explain: "Stelle… can't you watch the plot more seriously…"

Stelle tilted her head: "Huh? Was there something I missed?"

Aunt Jizi: "…Didn't you notice that Kafka has been very calm all along… No matter how you look at it, it seems like she was caught on purpose."

Stelle suddenly realized: "Got it!! I smell a conspiracy."

"I was wondering… Kafka has been so imposing since she appeared, like a big boss who is neither good nor evil; how could she be caught so easily?"

Suddenly, she thought of something else.

"The next plot… is it 【Yujing】 employees interrogating the 【Yujing】 President…"
