Investigating Lan Ruobing

After a playful touch to Ruobing’s chest, Xi Xue refrained from further teasing. Instead, under Ruobing’s trembling gaze, she meticulously took her measurements.

Upon finishing, Xi Xue discovered that Ruobing’s figure was actually slightly better than her own, though Ruobing was about half a forehead shorter.

Ruobing stood at 1.68 meters, while Xi Xue was 1.72 meters.

With her height and measurements taken, Lan Ruobing, clutching the clothes Xi Xue had chosen for her, bashfully entered the fitting room.

From a distance, Xi Xue watched. Once Ruobing had closed the fitting room door, Xi Xue casually grabbed a set of clothes and walked into a different fitting room.

The two fitting rooms were quite far apart.

Inside her fitting room, Xi Xue spread the clothes onto the soft stool. She then sat down, pulled out her phone, crossed her legs, and began to dial a number.

She made no move to try on any clothes.

The call connected, and a crisp, somewhat detached girl’s voice came from the other end.

“Hello, Young Miss.”

“Qingying, help me look up two people,” Xi Xue said, without a shred of unnecessary chatter, clearly accustomed to the other’s style.

“Who and who?”

“Lan Nuo from Xiaoyue Middle School and Lan Ruobing, who appeared at the school today.”

The sound of typing on a keyboard echoed from the other end of the line.

After a few seconds, Qingying’s voice came through. “Targets confirmed. All information should be fully retrieved in approximately ten minutes.”

Upon hearing this, Xi Xue smiled with satisfaction. “Qingying, your efficiency is as high as ever.”

“It’s as it should be, Young Miss,” Qingying replied, her tone unwavering.

Hearing this, Xi Xue smiled helplessly, deciding not to prolong the conversation. “Send me the results once you’re done, and forward me copies of both their profiles.”

“No problem, Young Miss.”

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“It’s my duty, Young Miss.”

“Oh, right,” Xi Xue suddenly remembered something just as she was about to hang up. “Is there any new information on the SS+ class criminal, the Lust Blood King, Count Augustin?”

“None,” Qingying said.

“Still unable to pinpoint his hidden coordinates?”

“No, I can’t,” Qingying sighed. “The Lust Blood King is incredibly adept at hiding, leaving no trace. To avoid alerting him, I haven’t delved too deeply into the investigation.”

“Indeed, he’s a cautious individual. The girls whose blood he’s drained are all under a geas, lacking any related memories and exhibiting extreme aggression, making investigation difficult.”

Xi Xue gripped her phone tightly as she spoke. “It’s been a month, and we haven’t found any pattern in his behavior.”

“Don’t worry, Young Miss. The target has been confirmed to be in Moonlight City. He’s severely injured and won’t miss the Ability College Entrance Exam if he wants to regain his strength. Dr. Yang said that for now, we just need to keep a close eye on powerful and beautiful candidates.”

Qingying’s words were like a sudden enlightenment, and Xi Xue’s eyes immediately lit up.

“You’ve reminded me! We must thoroughly investigate Lan Ruobing’s profile. She perfectly fits the Lust Blood King’s hunting criteria, and she’s a top-tier one.”

“Rest assured, Young Miss. Lan Ruobing’s information will be comprehensive,” Qingying responded, a subtle ripple in her tone.

“Good, I’ll leave it to you.”

“Understood, Young Miss.”

*Beep—*

A few seconds after Qingying finished speaking, Xi Xue hung up the phone, sighing with a smile.

‘There’s nothing for it,’ she thought. ‘Ruobing is just too captivating; she completely swept me off my feet, making me forget about the Lust Blood King for a moment. Thankfully, Qingying reminded me.’

Now, even for the sake of the mission, she couldn’t let Ruobing go.

As Xi Xue mused, her gaze turned cunning, and the smile on her face grew wider.
