Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 105 Execution of the Traitor (The End)

The room's windows and doors were tightly closed, and the curtains were drawn, making it appear somewhat dark. A person slowly emerged from the darkness in the corner. He was wearing a black overcoat and a hat with the brim pulled low, obscuring most of his face. He stood quietly in the corner, keeping his presence low, making it difficult for anyone to notice that he was there.

"Where's what I want?"

He lowered his head, his expression unreadable, and spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Here's the item, I've got it." Sister Hui waved the book in her hand, but didn't hand it to the mysterious man. "Let's talk. Now we both have each other's bargaining chips, how about we revise our deal?"

"I never expected that the famous Keiko Tanaka would be such a person who breaks her word?"

The man slightly raised his head, as if sizing up Tanaka Keiko, his hoarse voice carrying a hint of mockery.

Tanaka Keiko raised an eyebrow, a fire igniting within her, burning away a small portion of her rationality: "Keeping one's word is a matter for my partners. You're just some random person who appeared out of nowhere. If I didn't have something on me, do you think I would listen to you so obediently? This book is very important to you, isn't it?"

Keiko Tanaka held up the book in her hand. "Nine Transformations of the Heavenly Dragon? This title doesn't sound like a serious book. Could there be some secret hidden inside?"

She moved her other hand to the middle of the book: "What if I accidentally tear it out?"

Tanaka Keiko stared intently at the mysterious man in front of her, not missing a single reaction. Just before Qian Xiuyi arrived, this mysterious man suddenly approached her, threw a lot of evidence about her identity at her, and threatened her to find a way to take away the book that Qian Xiuyi was carrying on her chest, otherwise he would send these things to the governor of Dong Province.

At the same time, as the governor's 16th concubine and his most favored woman, the consequences would be unimaginable if her identity as a spy were exposed. Tanaka Keiko did not know who the person in front of her was or how he knew her identity. She did not want to surrender without resistance, as that would be too passive. From the moment she got the book, she had been thinking about this.

"is it?"

The man suddenly raised his head, and under the brim of his hat was a face exactly like Qian Xiuyi's. Before Tanaka Keiko could react, the last thing she saw in her eyes was that man's bloodthirsty sneer.

"Pfft-"

The sound of a bullet entering flesh was heard, but it didn't make much of a noise. Qian Xiuya quickly stepped forward and caught Yu Liu just before she hit the ground.

Yu Liu, working in perfect harmony, transformed back into human form, reached out and scooped up the book that was her original form, then threw it into Qian Xiuya's arms.

She buried her head in Qian Xiuya's arms, not daring to look back at the tragic scene behind her.

Qian Xiuya patted her back reassuringly: "Tanaka Keiko was one of the best spies planted in China by the invading army. She was also the governor's concubine and one of the contact persons for the spies. She had gathered a lot of important intelligence for the invading army. Behind many of the defeats in the war in the Eastern Province, there was her shadow. She deserves to die. Letting her die so easily is actually letting her off easy."

Fearing that his actions might traumatize his baby, Qian Xiuya patiently explained in the end.

"I know she's a bad person." Yu Liu could tell whether she was good or bad. "Let's go quickly, let's not stay here."

"Ok!"

Qian Xiuyan tucked the silenced pistol, which he had specially ordered from abroad, back into his waistband and walked to the window of the room: "Baby, hold on tight!!"

He kicked the window open, grabbed the windowsill with his right hand, and jumped out.

Yu Liu was so frightened that her heart almost stopped. She quickly hugged the person in front of her tightly, burying her head even deeper, as if deceiving herself.

The scene of falling and crashing that had been imagined did not occur. After all, they were only on the second floor. Midway, Qian Xiuya reached out and grabbed the window on the first floor, and landed steadily on the ground.

After quickly turning around several streets, Qian Xiuya finally slipped into a residential house. It was a two-room tile-roofed house with a very small courtyard, and it looked quite unremarkable.

"We are safe for now."

Qian Xiuya sat on a small stone bench in the courtyard and placed the baby in his arms on the bench next to him: "Baby, can you tell me why you suddenly turned back before?"

The transformation process was clearly abnormal, and Qian Xiuya was worried about its impact on the baby, so he wanted to find out what the cause was.

"Um, this..." Yu Liu scratched her head: "Do you remember what I told you before, about how many people made a wish to me?"

"I remember." Qian Xiuya remembered it very clearly; it was because of this wish that the baby came to his side.

"So, the baby turned back to normal because of that wish?"

"Yes, Qian Xiuyi is my goal. I can't be away from him for too long. The longest I can stay is three days. After three days, I'll uncontrollably return to him, so..."

Yu Liu was a little hesitant. She felt embarrassed that she only found out about such an important matter at the last minute.

Qian Xiuya's brow twitched, and a sudden feeling of unease rose in his heart: "Since it is Qian Xiuyi who is restricting you, baby, then, if Qian Xiuyi dies, what will become of you, baby?"

"Huh?" This question completely stumped Yu Liu. Having experienced several worlds, she had never encountered a situation where the wish's target died prematurely. In the first world, she was the one who died; in the subsequent worlds, she had always accompanied the wish's target to their natural death. She genuinely didn't know the answer to this question. "I don't know..."

For some reason, Yu Liu felt a little guilty, and her words lacked confidence.

"What, what's wrong?"

The unease in Qian Xiuyai's heart had spread throughout his body. His heart was pounding nervously, and he felt like he was suffocating: "I sent out the two guards who were with us to kill Qian Xiuyi."

Once Tanaka Keiko takes the book, Qian Xiuyi will not escape her fate of death.

What will happen to the baby if Qian Xiuyi, who served as the medium for summoning the baby, dies?

Qian Xiuya clutched his chest, as if he had already anticipated what was about to happen.

"Baby……"

He wanted to say something more to the baby, but after seeing the baby bathed in light, he couldn't say anything.

Yu Liu was also a little confused. This familiar five-colored light was the Reincarnation Well calling her back. Yu Liu had already understood Qian Xiuya's guess. If the target of her wish died, she would be summoned back.

How could this be?

In the past, she was always there for that person until their death, so why this time...?

Yu Liu was a little anxious. She looked outside through the light and saw Qian Xiuya staring intently at her with a complicated look in his eyes. There was too much in his eyes for Yu Liu to understand. She couldn't even sense Qian Xiuya's current mood. She felt like she was suffocating and had a tingling pain in her heart. Before Yu Liu could feel anything more, the multicolored light shone brightly and Yu Liu disappeared from the spot.

The "Qian Xiuya" who was left behind quietly watched the spot where she disappeared. After a long while, he finally lowered his head and looked at his wrist.

There, a golden line stretched out, winding its way to the sky and leading to an unknown place.

Qian Xiuya placed his left hand on the gold line on his right wrist, and gently hooked the gold line with his index finger, as if he could easily cut the line with just a little force.

After a long pause, "Qian Xiuya" finally sighed, released the fragile golden thread, and then, as if thinking of something, a smile appeared on his expressionless face.

"Fine... let it be a mistake..."
