Chapter 91

The district warden left with a harsh remark, his expression displeased, and took a few subordinates with him.

"Just a district warden, is that all?" Lin Yifan put down his wine glass and sneered.

"Is that all? Do you think others are stupid? I advise you not to go after him. This guy has been very arrogant lately, crippling the Steel Front's twelfth district. A large number of new members from the opposite side were killed, and the twelfth district's group of cycle travelers is almost out of operation, lacking even the manpower to recruit new members."

Natalia crossed her arms, showing great concern about Lin Yifan's dismissive attitude.

A warden who crippled the Steel Front's new recruit district is no fool. He doesn't need to engage in intrigue with Lin Yifan because of the first impression—Lin Yifan, wearing slippers, seemed careless and couldn't be taken seriously.

Those who think the district warden is stupid simply don't consider Lin Yifan, who has only cycled twice, as a rival.

Instead, they feel their intelligence is insulted, like a general refusing to compete with a mere stable hand.

If he took Lin Yifan seriously, it would be worth Lin Yifan's caution, wondering if his identity had been exposed.

Sitting at the bar, Lin Yifan pondered for a moment, feeling that this guy was indeed not simple, capable of crippling the Steel Front's district. However, arrogance and irritability were also significant weaknesses of this person.

"Do you have any plans?" Natalia nudged Lin Yifan.

"Plans? I need to find a way to eliminate or capture him and bring him back to prison. Otherwise... this person might take my identity information to the officer district."

Natalia's face showed surprise: "What?"

"Zhou Xin put my information into the next cycle, which is for promotion to officer. Once the Arbitrators enter, everything will be clear."

From Lin Yifan's tone, it seemed he was preparing to enter the cycle to catch the person.

Natalia was somewhat worried: "It's risky to catch him. Are you sure you want to go?"

"Not going is also an option, but there will be bigger trouble later, very big trouble."

Seeing that Lin Yifan had already made up his mind, Natalia didn't stop him and nodded: "I'll keep an eye on him. If he enters the cycle, I'll notify you immediately."

"By the way, Zhou Xin said the next cycle is his choice. Can you see what cycle it is?"

Natalia shook her head: "Not yet. The director's position is vacant, so the archive room is off-limits. But I believe they won't be far from entering the cycle, probably within the next day or two."

"Got it. If there's nothing else, I'll be on my way."

Lin Yifan glanced at his watch; it was only half past eleven. He didn't know if he could make it back in time for lunch with Sae and the others.

"Wait! I haven't thanked you yet for冒险 helping me lure Zhou Xin. How about we have a meal in a private room?"

"Of course, I'd be delighted to have dinner with a beautiful prosecutor."

Hearing Lin Yifan call her that again, Natalia was a bit unhappy: "Hmph, I told you not to call me that."

Lin Yifan laughed bitterly and waved his hands: "Then I'll just call you 'beautiful'? Alright, don't glare at me like that. I actually have something to do, so let's do it another day."

"Since that's the case, shall I drive you back?" Natalia took out her car keys.

Since she had said so much, Lin Yifan had no choice but to agree: "Sure, I'd love to enjoy your supercar."

"Hmph, it's a graduation gift from my dad, so you're getting a good deal."

Natalia, in a fairly good mood, took Lin Yifan downstairs. Lin Yifan didn't act pretentiously and enjoyed lying in the passenger seat of the luxury car, especially the massage function of the seat, which felt incredibly relaxing.

Just as Natalia was about to drive, she noticed Lin Yifan had turned on the massage function and teased: "Feels good, doesn't it, Dian Dian?"

"Ah, it does feel good." Lin Yifan, eyes closed, inhaled sharply, looking completely relaxed.

Hearing Lin Yifan's comfortable moan, Natalia felt a strange sensation in her heart, her face blushing as she muttered: "Shameless."

The flashy sports car sped away, while the silver fox girl in the restaurant had her mouth wide open.

If it were any other cycle traveler, seeing Lin Yifan in the car wouldn't have caused much of a reaction; they would probably assume he was a native of Infinite City.

But the silver fox recognized the kid, just a madman who had cycled twice.

"Quite... quite impressive, this kid, actually hooking up with the newly appointed beautiful prosecutor. Some Arbitrators just left? This Infinite City is really deep, I can't understand it. I'll just eat my noodles."

The young silver fox thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so she gave up and focused on her noodles.

Meanwhile, Lin Yifan, sitting in the luxury car, had already forgotten about the carbon-iron, knowing it would return to the garage when the time came.

Unfortunately, he couldn't afford such a supercar, so he could only indulge in it by riding with a rich girl.

The distance from Newborn Street to the cycle travelers' residential area was less than a kilometer.

The supercar roared, its value and the police emblem on it made other cycle travelers instinctively move out of the way.

Sitting in the car, Lin Yifan took another look at this city of sin. Honestly, his time in Infinite City was very short.

In this place of freedom, one could see all sorts of cycle travelers.

Steam punk, anime style, or sci-fi and ancient samurai.

Many cars were modified in unique ways, like the vintage car in front, which was transformed into a punk style, with a metallic finish and several exhaust pipes. It looked old but had a certain charm.

Even more exaggerated was the one in front, with a skull head and red lanterns trailing behind, racing wildly on the street.

This place was almost a world where the insane and the ordinary coexisted, with a strong culture of death. No one could be sure if the person racing with you today would still be around tomorrow.

Looking at the dazzling Infinite City, the car had already stopped in front of his house.

"Go rest for a while. I'll notify you if anything happens."

Lin Yifan nodded, pushed the car door open, and stood by the roadside, bidding farewell to Natalia in the car before turning to enter his yard.

As soon as he pushed the door open, he wanted to shout, "I'm back."

But he only managed to say "I" before seeing a silenced gesture from Sae, who was wearing an apron.

Stunned, Lin Yifan noticed two lazy cats lying on the sofa.

Nanri Kaori, in shorts and a tank top, was sprawled out on the sofa, sleeping. On the adjacent sofa, Saya, like a little kitten, was curled up, breathing evenly, and seemed to be sleeping soundly.

As for Kikuchi Shizuka, she was lying on Lin Yifan's bed, hugging a pillow and snoring like an octopus.

The others seemed to be on duty at the prison, as he didn't see Miyamoto Rei or Hirano.

Sae whispered, "They just finished lunch and are all sleeping."

"Ah." Lin Yifan nodded, and his stomach growled.

At first, Sae's face froze, but then she smiled: "Are you hungry? There's some leftover food. I'll heat it up for you."
