Chapter 69

Qinyue worriedly glanced at her brother, relieved to see that he didn’t look entranced. If her brother liked this kind of swaying, it would be troublesome; she didn’t have that much to offer…

"Hello, I heard from the front desk that you’re here to work?"

"Yes, we heard you’re looking for someone to distribute flyers. Maybe we can help this afternoon," Chu Feiyue positioned herself as a good Samaritan rather than a job seeker, hoping for better treatment.

"Oh, yes, that’s right." This woman seemed to be a poor businesswoman, readily agreeing with Chu Feiyue’s statement. "We’ve only hired one person to distribute flyers so far. You coming is just in time."

"What about the pay? For the whole afternoon?" It was important to negotiate the price first to avoid being shortchanged.

"1000 per person, how about that?"

"O.O What? How much?"

"Is it too little? I’ve always paid this much. How about 1500?"

"Uh, no, that’s fine."

Chu Feiyue thought it must be easy to do business with this Russian woman because she didn’t even haggle. The stereotype of being naive and having lots of money, who wouldn’t like such a negotiation partner?

Perhaps her boss wouldn’t…

Then, Shanna Baeva led the two siblings to take two stacks of 400 flyers each. Their goal was to distribute them all in the afternoon. After assigning their tasks, Shanna Baeva disappeared, leaving the siblings to carry their flyers onto the street.

Shanna really trusted them, not even sending anyone to supervise. They had to repay this trust well.

Hearing that Shanna had already hired someone to distribute flyers, Chu Feiyue and Qinyue decided to find this person first to avoid overlapping their efforts, which could be awkward.

But after searching for a while, they couldn’t find anyone. Qinyue and Chu Feiyue were a bit at a loss. Where could the person distributing flyers be?

Seems like we can’t find them. This is troublesome. Let’s just use elemental perception to locate them…

Closing her eyes, Chu Feiyue silently expanded her "Imagination." In the next moment, a ripple visible only to her radiated outward at a speed exceeding light, instantly covering a vast area with the Earth at the center and the distance to the sun as the radius.

Countless pieces of information formed colorful light streams that flowed through Chu Feiyue’s mind. The massive amount of data almost caused her brain to crash, as this was the first time she had released "Imagination" in reality.

"Damn, really? I just wanted to find a person..." Chu Feiyue smiled bitterly, enduring the sharp pain in her head and gradually narrowing her search area to reduce the amount of data received.

Target: People making movements similar to distributing flyers or carrying something.

Search, complete.

Suddenly, Chu Feiyue’s expression changed. She handed her stack of flyers to Qinyue and ran into a nearby residential area.

"Trouble, someone’s in trouble."

She wanted to use teleportation, but doing so on a busy street wasn’t a good idea.

Turning left and right, she ran into a dead-end alley with a rain shelter. There, she saw two rather destitute-looking homeless men preparing to assault a girl.

Chu Feiyue had seen the girl being dragged into the dead-end alley just moments ago using elemental perception, so she was still struggling fiercely.

These people, who refuse to strive, why don’t they try a bit harder when they are in their prime? It might not be easy to become rich and powerful in this society, but to say one would starve to death is a dream. With a little effort, having a full meal and decent clothes is easy.

Chu Feiyue felt that such people had no meaning in the world, so she walked directly behind the two beggars facing away from her and kicked each of them in the groin. With the added strength from Mage’s Hand, Chu Feiyue’s kicks were much stronger than a normal person’s. The two assailants, suffering severe injuries to their vital areas, fainted without even a scream.

There was even a sound like an egg breaking...

Still not satisfied, Chu Feiyue kicked the spot a few more times before checking on the girl who was almost a victim.

The girl was wearing a large hood that obscured her face, a top with a cross-shaped emblem, like a school uniform, and a dark blue mini skirt with white thigh-high socks. Now, they were all dirty and covered in dirt. She was crouched in the corner, trembling in fear after experiencing the most terrifying moment of her life.

This outfit seemed familiar...

Flyers were scattered at the entrance of the dead-end alley, indicating that this girl was the colleague they were looking for.

"It’s okay, I’ve taken care of these two." Chu Feiyue tried to pull her up, but she was too weak to stand.

However, due to Chu Feiyue’s efforts, the girl’s hood had fallen off.

As the hood slowly slid off, a brilliant shade of purple appeared before Chu Feiyue’s eyes. The girl’s hair was the same color as Chu Feiyue’s.

The girl also noticed her hood had fallen off. "Ah, my hood!" She quickly put it back on, as if this was more important than almost being assaulted.

Chu Feiyue’s mind was still on the purple hair, which made her feel a deep sense of familiarity.

The girl, distracted by the hood, seemed less shaky. She slowly stood up, leaning against the wall, and walked to the entrance of the alley to pick up the flyers.

Chu Feiyue went to help, and the girl hesitated, lowering her head even more. Chu Feiyue shamelessly peeked into her lowered neckline, noticing that the girl was wearing a chest wrap instead of a bra.

It seemed to have a unique charm...

"Did you see my hair just now?" The girl’s voice was soft and trembling, making her sound very endearing.

"Yes, it’s purple, very beautiful."

"Do you think I’m a demon?" The girl suddenly looked up and met Chu Feiyue’s gaze. Her eyes were also purple.

The girl was very beautiful, with large eyes, fine eyebrows, a delicate nose, a small mouth, and a pointed chin, exuding a delicate and fragile beauty typical of classical maidens. However, her eyes were now filled with tears, and she choked as she spoke to Chu Feiyue.

"My hair and eyes are naturally purple! Everyone thinks I’m a demon. Aren’t you afraid?" Tears streamed down her pale cheeks. "I’m different from others, a harbinger of disaster, an omen of bad luck... sniff sniff..."
