The vampire heiress is two-faced

Page 137

For the two guards, although her figure and appearance differed somewhat from what they remembered, her tone of voice was almost identical.

"Sir, what brings you here today?" the guard asked respectfully.

The nun seemed to glance at them slightly, but her hood always covered the upper half of her face, preventing the guards from seeing her eyes.

"Come for routine check-ups and injections."

Her tone was reassuringly gentle, yet it exuded a chillingly gloomy aura—an indescribable contradiction that perfectly matched the guards' impression of her.

Only then were the guards completely relieved.

"Okay, sure. I'll have your service representative come down to pick you up right away..."

Upon hearing this, the nun suddenly leaned closer to the guard and gently placed her finger in front of his lips.

"No need to trouble you. Just focus on doing your jobs well."

"Or... do you want me to help you find a new job?"

The guard was terrified and begged for mercy repeatedly.

"No...no! I know I was wrong! Please come in!"

...

The nun coldly pushed the guard away.

"That's more like it."

She clasped her hands together, then interlocked her fingers, placed them on her chest, and continued to chant obscure prayers as she slowly and gracefully entered the building.

She walked slowly to the elevator leading to the underground, looked up, and lifted her nun's hood.

[Face recognition in progress... Authentication successful, access granted.]

Welcome back, pawn.

The nun pressed the button to go to the B2 level, and inside the elevator, she remained motionless, bowing her head in prayer.

Only after the elevator doors opened and she stepped out, looking around for a moment, did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.

...

"Phew...that scared me to death."

"Brother Yin wants me to act like I was when I was a lackey, but how could I remember that clearly..."

Solid leaned against the wall, still shaken, pondering her next move.

Yin Shang guessed that the group might not disclose the current situation of "Chess Crowd" to its lower-level employees. Therefore, he believed that the group's branch in Drake Building might not know that "Pawn" had left the organization and defected to the enemy.

Therefore, it's possible that Solid's face might continue to be used in Drake Tower...

"Brother Yin is amazing, you guessed right... I really did get in."

Solid calmed her breathing.

Clearly, it was still too much to ask her to venture deep into enemy territory alone, especially now that she could no longer communicate with Yin Shang, which only increased her psychological pressure.

But Yin Shang couldn't just swagger in like her, and as a human, he couldn't transform into black mist and slip through any gap like a vampire. So, for now, only Solid could do it on her own.

Yin Shang had previously asked Solid many questions about her time as a "pawn," but unfortunately, when Reinhard merged with her, in order to ensure the stability of her soul and to prevent her from bearing the sins she committed when she was used by evil people, he erased most of her memories as a "pawn."

Nevertheless, she can still vaguely remember that she once had such an identity. However, now that she has fully merged with Reinhardt, under the forced correction of dual memories, she regards her act of forever following Yin Shang as "atonement" for her past evil deeds.

This far-fetched reason was actually the 114th reason she came up with for "following Brother Yin forever," and it was nothing special among these hundreds of strange reasons, not worth mentioning.

So, she actually had no recollection of any of the evil deeds she had committed. But as long as she could stay with her Brother Yin, what was the point of remembering?

"Hmm... so what's the next step...?"

"No, no, I'm still so scared, I can't calm down."

Solid looked so nervous she was about to cry.

"Why am I so afraid of acting alone...? Could it be...? Is it because of my human form...?"

She hesitated.

"Maybe I should just turn back into cat form. But then I won't be able to handle unexpected situations..."

She hesitated for a moment, but finally mustered up her courage.

"Hmph, no way, how can I be unable to walk without Brother Yin? That's not like me at all."

"Let me investigate what the group has hidden here."

Chapter 149 Walking Alone

after a while.

"found it!"

Solid lay prone beside the locked laboratory door, through which she could vaguely see the still-intact research facilities inside via a small glass window.

"This lab looks relatively intact. The other labs seem to have been emptied out."

Because Solid was constantly in a state of high tension, she was even unable to utilize Reinhardt's ability for calm and rational thinking...

"We've walked around the underground area several times, and it doesn't seem like anyone is staying behind."

Considering that she could transform into a cat and escape if something went wrong, Yin Shang was "at ease" to let her come alone to investigate.

But Yin Shang truly hadn't anticipated that, although Reinhardt possessed the ability to carefully analyze situations and formulate strategies, this very ability that Yin Shang trusted so much was now clearly unable to be utilized due to Solid's extreme nervousness...

While the fusion of the two has both advantages and disadvantages, Solid's personality has clearly gained the upper hand now.

"This body doesn't seem to be able to get in either. Hmm—it can't be pushed!"

She pushed the laboratory door, but it wouldn't budge. Clearly, she couldn't open it by force, as the noise would attract the guards.

"Let's use our cat-like bodies to crawl through. There seems to be a ventilation opening up there."

There is a cooldown period of a few minutes when she switches between the two forms, which is what she was worried about before: "being unable to cope with unexpected situations".

In human form, she is more versatile in combat than in cat form. Since acquiring human form, she has made Solid her permanent form.

Perhaps this is precisely why she gradually became dominated by Solid's personality...

call out--

In the blink of an eye, the black-haired nun transformed into a golden-haired cat and leaped onto the ventilation shaft in a few steps.

Shortly after, they landed inside the laboratory.

"Heh heh, that was easy."

Reinhardt radiated a beam of holy light from his eyes as a light source, jumped onto the lab table, and pawed at the empty drawers with his little paws.

"No...no."

"Last time, Miss Ludwig and her group visited, the group must have moved everything away."

The kitten scratched its fluffy head.

"Uh?"

It then noticed that a USB drive seemed to be plugged into the dusty computer in the corner...

Upon closer inspection, the label on the USB drive reads a simple word: "Confidential".

"Heh heh. Whether there's anything inside or not, let's grab it first..."

Reinhardt was about to take it when a gunshot rang out.

boom!

The bullet struck the floor in front of Reinhardt, causing it to instantly bristle and leap back several meters.

"Meow!!"

"Meow meow meow!"

It scanned the laboratory with lingering fear, and finally found the attacker's figure at the door that had been locked.

"Meow?!"

...

The man was wearing a large trench coat, had a burly build, and blood-red eyes.

Clearly, it is a monster with a human body—an Evolver.

This person was naturally very familiar to Reinhardt; he still possessed detailed memories of him...

All the memories of this person fueled the kitten's anger.

Because both of Reinhardt's memories held no liking for this person.

The chess pieces' chariots, crushing dust.

...

hum-

A burst of golden light erupted from the golden Persian cat's body, which then expanded into a pillar of light.

As the light quickly dissipated, she

She resumed her nun-like posture.

As is customary, her cat ears inevitably reappeared, swaying uncomfortably in this formal setting, making them hard to ignore...

Che Nianchen witnessed the entire process of Yin Shang's cat spirit transforming into a "dead person," and the unbelievable situation shocked him greatly.

"...A girl?!"

...

"Chariot, it's you again."

Solid glared at him.

"What's with that expression...are you surprised?"

She smiled slightly.

"Surprised that they're still alive? Hmm?"

...

"Who are you? Why are you using Solid's appearance?!"

Che Nianchen raised his gun, aimed at her, and said in a deep voice.

"I came here to retrieve the documents I left behind last time, but I never expected to hear that the gatekeeper encountered the long-deceased Solid..."

"Who are you? Tell me!"

...

"Stealing? I am Solid."

The nun tossed her black hair and put her hands on her hips.

"Although I no longer remember what evils we committed as soldiers, I still vividly remember your indifference towards me..."

“When I was misled by the group, they did not help me, but let me lose myself in my longing for Brother Yin and make so many mistakes.”

"Then, she made me hurt Brother Yin, almost killed me, and abandoned Brother Yin!"

She was furious.

"You call yourself Brother Yin's childhood friend? I'm so disappointed! Now you're even continuing to keep the group's dirty secrets..."

"I demand an explanation from you today, both morally and logically!"

...

"When did she become so tough...? Did she survive by merging with that artifact spirit?"

The car churned up dust and murmured.

"Girl, I—"

...
