A rollback after death? Then let them offer their loyalty!

Chapter 16 Nightingale

Twenty minutes later, Lin Yu returned to the apartment building where Su Wan lived. Instead of going upstairs, he took a walk around the neighborhood first.

Su Wan also went around from the bedroom to the back door, and through the window, she met Lin Yu's gaze.

Lin Yu nodded to her, and Su Wan immediately understood and continued to attract the attention of the monitors.

Across from the apartment building is a four-story old building, and there is indeed a figure squatting on the edge of the roof.

She wore a black bodysuit, her long hair was tied in a ponytail, and she was holding binoculars.

Lin Yu went around to the back of the old building and climbed up the fire escape.

The movements were very light, almost silent.

At this moment, Nightingale was perched on the edge of the rooftop, her binoculars pointed at the window of Su Wan's apartment, motionless.

Lin Yu pushed open the door and walked up to the rooftop, his steps extremely light.

But she still noticed, and turned around sharply with a fierce look in her eyes, her hand already on the dagger at her waist.

"Who?"

Lin Yu didn't say anything and rushed forward.

Nightingale reacted extremely quickly, leaning back and drawing her dagger, the blade slicing towards Lin Yu's throat.

Lin Yu dodged to the side, grabbed Nightingale's wrist with his right hand and twisted it forcefully.

But it was clear that she was much stronger, probably surpassing a Sequence Nine Extraordinary.

Fortunately, Lin Yu had more combat experience, and the two remained locked in a stalemate at the edge of the rooftop.

Nightingale's eyes were cold and sharp, and she twisted her wrist to break free from Lin Yu.

"Don't move." Su Wan's voice came from the stairwell.

She followed Lin Yu during the fight because she was worried about him, holding a small porcelain bottle in her hand.

Nightingale's pupils contracted, and she was about to make a move—

Su Wan flicked her finger, and a light purple powder sprayed all over Nightingale's face.

Nightingale's body stiffened abruptly, her eyes glazed over, and her struggling strength weakened.

Lin Yu then pushed her to the ground.

"This is my Bewitching Incense..." Su Wan walked over and squatted down:

"The effect is alright, isn't it?" Su Wan said, reaching out to remove Nightingale's mask.

Beneath the mask was a refined and aloof face.

He had fair skin, a high nose bridge, and thin, tightly pursed lips.

Even in a coma, she still possessed a sharp edge in her eyes, belonging to the cold and aloof type.

"It's quite beautiful." Su Wan chuckled, her fingertips tracing Nightingale's cheek. "I'm even a little tempted myself~"

Su Wan glanced at Lin Yu as she spoke, "You big pervert, aren't you tempted?"

Lin Yu pinched Su Wan's cheek: "What are you thinking about at a time like this?"

Lin Yu then hoisted Nightingale onto his shoulder: "Let's go, let's take her back and ask her first."

......

Apartment living room —

Nightingale was left on the sofa, still unconscious.

Su Wan applied some more medicine powder, and Nightingale slowly opened her eyes.

His eyes were unfocused and glazed over; he had clearly been hypnotized.

"Tell me, what did Chen Tianxiong send you here for?" Lin Yu asked.

"Keep an eye on Su Wan." Nightingale's voice was monotonous.

"Master Chen said she's been a bit more lively lately, and we need to find out what Su Wan is up to."

"Besides the entrance from the study, what other path leads to the secret room in the martial arts school?"

"The wine cellar...there's a hidden door behind the wine racks at the very back."

Lin Yu then continued to inquire about the guard distribution, shift change times, and the deployment on the night of the full moon.

The nightingale answered one by one, its voice mechanical.

After gathering all the information, Lin Yu stood up, drew his dagger, and prepared to finish off Nightingale.

Su Wan suddenly grabbed his wrist: "Wait."

She glanced at the nightingale on the sofa, a playful smile playing on her lips:

"She's so beautiful, why don't you..."

Lin Yu turned to look at Su Wan: "I think you're asking for trouble. What time is it now?"

Su Wan blushed and stiffened her neck, saying, "Yes, what's wrong?!"

The next second, Lin Yu leaned down and kissed her.

...

...

When Lin Yu came out of the room, the buttons on his shirt were still undone.

Su Wan followed behind, her hair slightly disheveled and her face flushed.

Lin Yu then went to the sofa. Nightingale was now awake and was looking at him with a fierce gaze.

"You two—"

But before she could finish speaking, Lin Yu's blade flashed, and a line of blood bloomed on Nightingale's neck. Her body twitched twice and then remained motionless.

Su Wan turned her head away, gaining a new understanding of Lin Yu's decisiveness and ruthlessness.

Lin Yu crouched down and searched the Nightingale's corpse, but found nothing strange except for ordinary weapons.

Lin Yu frowned slightly, and only after stripping Nightingale naked did he find a rune on her waist.

"It's a pity, it's a totem-type strange creature, not easy to inherit." Su Wan pouted.

Totem-type anomalies are a rather special type of anomaly. Once contained, they cannot be moved unless they are moved using special anomaly materials.

Lin Yu didn't have any at the moment, so he wasn't too bothered. He exchanged a glance with Su Wan and said, "Let's deal with the body first."

......

One hour later—

Lin Yu and Su Wan returned to the apartment after dealing with Nightingale's body.

Su Wan leaned against the door and let out a long breath. The calmness she had displayed while dealing with the corpse had faded, and her fingers were still trembling slightly.

Unlike the last time I dealt with a maid, this time I felt more involved and was more nervous.

Su Wan suddenly threw herself into Lin Yu's arms, wrapped her arms tightly around his waist, and buried her face in the crook of his shoulder.

"Lin Yu..." Su Wan's voice was tinged with lingering fear, yet also with an inexplicable excitement: "I absolutely love you~"

As Su Wan spoke, she stood on tiptoe and began to kiss Lin Yu's face repeatedly.

Like a clingy pet, its lips are warm and soft.
