Chapter 394: Lady Xia Li, Delivered Right to His Door
Lady Xia Li's plan was very simple.
Since Lin Yu and the others had chosen to disguise themselves before boarding Fish-Man Island, they would certainly not rashly reveal their true identities; this way, she could pretend not to know who they were, then seize the chance to make contact with them, probing their true intentions or learning their way of doing things.
If the other party were a thoroughly wicked person harboring malicious intent, then she would guard against them in secret, ready to strike at any moment.
If the other party differed from the rumors, then perhaps they could try making contact with them, or simply pretend not to know and let them freely leave Fish-Man Island, heading to the New World.
After thinking it over, Neptune directly nodded his agreement to Lady Xia Li's suggestion, because there was no better option left.
Leaving Long Gong, Lady Xia Li hurried off to her own café.
The moment she stepped inside, she spotted Lin Yu and his group's location at a glance, and confirmed Lin Yu directly.
Because a human's identity was simply too conspicuous on Fish-Man Island, and moreover Lin Yu had several great beauties by his side whose looks were no less striking than those mermaids, drawing quite a number of gazes.
A male human—and he was the only one—very easy to confirm.
And Lady Xia Li's appearance also instantly drew the attention of Lin Yu and Koala.
There was no helping it; Lady Xia Li stood over five meters tall, with a massive frame, making it impossible not to attract notice.
"Lady Xia Li."
Koala immediately ran over and greeted her respectfully.
Lady Xia Li nodded and said, "Come upstairs with me."
Arriving at a private bedroom on the café's second floor, Lady Xia Li heard out Koala's purpose, then directly shook her head and refused her, sending her away.
Lin Yu was downstairs right then, and Lady Xia Li did not dare get involved in whatever business lay between him and the Revolutionary Army—no matter what.
After sending Koala away, Lady Xia Li went to the surveillance room on the second floor, intending to observe Lin Yu through the monitors first.
However, when she adjusted the feed to Lin Yu's table, she discovered that his group had long since left.
Seeing this, Lady Xia Li's face changed dramatically.
"You seem to be looking for me."
Suddenly, a voice came from behind Lady Xia Li, making her break out in a cold sweat on the spot.
Trembling, she turned around, and only then discovered Lin Yu standing behind her, looking at her with a smiling face, which instantly drained the color from her face.
Xia Li had not expected that Lin Yu would come straight to her side.
From the moment Lady Xia Li entered the café, Lin Yu had sensed her secretly sizing him up, which had aroused his suspicion.
So after Koala left, Lin Yu had Nami and the others secretly go capture her, while he came to find Lady Xia Li himself.
Seeing Lady Xia Li, whom he had frightened quite badly, Lin Yu frowned; her state did not look like something mere backing from someone could produce—this was probably already knowing his true identity.
Thinking this, Lin Yu clasped his hands behind his back, left the surveillance room, and headed toward Lady Xia Li's room.
"If you don't want something to happen to the Fish-Man Café or Fish-Man Island later, then obediently come with me."
Hearing Lin Yu's threat, Lady Xia Li clenched her teeth and obediently followed behind him.
Arriving at Lady Xia Li's room, Lin Yu sat down directly on the only sofa in the room and said, "Speak—how did you recognize me?"
Hearing Lin Yu's question, Lady Xia Li confessed the whole cause and effect of the matter, leaving nothing out.
After learning the full story, Lin Yu couldn't help but laugh; he hadn't expected all of this was caused by Koala's divination of him, nor had he expected Lady Xia Li to dare deliver herself right to his door.
Then, Lady Xia Li, mustering her courage, asked:
"Lord Lin Yu, what exactly are your intentions in coming to Fish-Man Island?"
Hearing this, Lin Yu looked up at the Lady Xia Li before him.
Lady Xia Li was a sharp-snouted mackerel-shark mermaid, five meters tall, with short black hair, a cold and striking appearance, a calm and dignified temperament, and possessed an extremely rare gift of prophetic divination.
After Lady Xia Li grew somewhat uncomfortable under his gaze, Lin Yu finally spoke:
"My purpose in coming to Fish-Man Island is very simple—and that purpose is you, Lady Xia Li!"
"So long as you are willing to come with me, I will spare Fish-Man Island."
Hearing Lin Yu's words, Lady Xia Li stared at him in utter shock; she had not expected that he had actually come for her.
Then, Lady Xia Li immediately recalled the rumors that this man before her liked to snatch away beauties.
Whether it was a kingdom's princess, a Marine beauty, or even the World Nobles—the Celestial Dragons—there were reports in the newspapers of them being abducted by Lin Yu.
Most recently, there was even news that he had slaughtered every last prisoner in the undersea prison, all to seize the two great beauties, the Vice Warden and the Head Jailer of Impel Down.
Thinking of this, a sudden notion surfaced in Lady Xia Li's mind.
Namely, that Lin Yu's coming to Fish-Man Island was probably really just a simple matter of coming to find women.
