My Pretty Campus Queen-Chapter 882 - 880: New Clues

Upon hearing this, Liu Laowu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, realizing they weren’t there to kill him.

So, Liu Laowu let go of the doorknob, allowing the two to enter the room. The place was a mess, making Liu Ting feel nauseous, but Chen Tianlong appeared unfazed.

"Alright, no need for small talk. Liu Laowu, I have a question for you. Do you remember this jade pendant?" Liu Ting directly took out the jade pendant, waving it a few times in front of Liu Laowu.

"Oh my gosh, even if it turned to dust, I’d still remember! Because of it, my Black Panther Gang was forcibly disbanded by the Black Alliance, and they even mistakenly thought the jade pendant was with me. To escape the Black Alliance’s pursuit, I fled to Ice City," Liu Laowu lamented about his bitter experiences during this time.

"Serves you right! Who told you to take on that jade pendant? You realize your mistake now, don’t you?" Liu Ting scolded harshly.

"Red Widow, you don’t understand. I didn’t know either. I heard from a merchant that this thing was a great treasure for cultivation, so I had it snatched. Who could have thought..."

"Wait, a merchant? What merchant?" Chen Tianlong sensed something fishy and hurriedly interrupted Liu Laowu, not interested in hearing anything else. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"Yeah, what merchant, tell us quickly," Liu Ting realized the significance after Chen Tianlong’s interjection.

Liu Laowu was startled. These two were hard people, not to be messed with, so he took a deep breath and explained, "The jade pendant was snatched from a merchant in his fifties. I heard that this merchant was also an archaeologist and a professor at a university. When he was younger, he liked wandering around and accidentally discovered this jade pendant, but I don’t know if it’s real."

Liu Laowu disclosed everything he knew to the two of them, though he wasn’t sure of the truth, as it was all hearsay.

"Do you remember where the merchant was from? What was his name? You must have done a thorough investigation before robbing him, right?" Chen Tianlong asked.

Liu Laowu didn’t seem like a rash person and was very timid. Without being sure, he wouldn’t have made a move. Hence, there might be detailed information.

"Alright, you’re right. To rob that old guy, I had a detailed investigation done. It took a whole month before we acted, and afterward, we immediately returned to South Sea City, daring not to linger in Ice City even for a moment," Liu Laowu said.

"What! You said that old man was in Ice City?" Chen Tianlong could always glean the most useful information from a single statement.

"Yes, he was a professor at Ice City University," Liu Laowu thought for a moment and added, "His name seems to be Wang Tian, yes, Professor Wang Tian. Besides teaching at the university, he also dabbled in jewelry business."

"Alright, I get it," Chen Tianlong, having obtained the information he wanted, took out ten thousand yuan from his pocket and slammed it on Liu Laowu’s table. "This serves as a reward, but I have one condition. You absolutely mustn’t tell anyone about what I’ve asked you, otherwise..."

"Understood," Liu Laowu hurriedly nodded.

This time they didn’t target him, already a blessing, so how could he dare offend them.

"Liu Ting, let’s go," Chen Tianlong didn’t linger, as this was North City, and they weren’t sure if their identities were exposed.

His intuition told him that Fang Dali was a smart person, unlikely not to have informants in East City. If this was the case, then their leaving the city must have been exposed long ago.

"Chen Tianlong, are we going back next?" Liu Ting asked while rushing on the road.

"No, we still need to go to one place," said Chen Tianlong. Having come out this time, he intended to finish everything at once; otherwise, next time his outing would be bothersome.

Given the previous experience, Fang Dali would definitely make early arrangements, ensuring that if they left East City again, they would be quickly captured.

"You mean Ice City University?" Liu Ting suddenly remembered and asked.

Chen Tianlong nodded.

"But Ice City University seems to be in the North City’s domain. Going there, would it be too dangerous?" Liu Ting was a bit worried.

Chen Tianlong stopped walking. Liu Ting was right; if they were discovered, staying with Liu Ting would indeed be dangerous. So, Chen Tianlong turned to her and said, "Then Liu Ting, you should return to East City first, and I’ll handle the rest."

"No, since I came out with you, I’ll stick with you," Liu Ting pouted, holding Chen Tianlong’s arm, acting spoiled.

"..." Chen Tianlong was speechless, but he knew his sister’s character—it was hard to change once she decided on something.

"Alright, but you must promise me, the moment there’s danger, run away by yourself, or I won’t agree to let you come along," Chen Tianlong’s attitude grew slightly stern.

"Okay."

Liu Ting surprisingly agreed.

Chen Tianlong was a bit stunned, then smiled slightly, saying, "Alright, let’s go to Ice City University."

Half an hour later, a gray Hummer stopped at the gates of Ice City University. Looking at the grand entrance, both Chen Tianlong and Liu Ting were a bit astounded.

Who would’ve thought that Ice City University was so magnificent, and even the entrance was made to be so impressive.

After parking the car, they started walking toward the university entrance. Originally, Chen Tianlong thought that a university would allow free access, but unexpectedly, the entrance checks at Ice City were strict.

"Are you two students here? If so, please show your student IDs," the gatekeeper, who looked like a military man, asked.

Chen Tianlong had respect for military folks; although he often opposed them in the past, his views changed after meeting Director Hong Fei.

"No!" Chen Tianlong replied directly.

"Looking for someone?" the guard continued to ask, not showing much wariness, since the two looked quite young, about eighteen or nineteen years old.

"Yeah, so can we go in?" Chen Tianlong said calmly.

"Sorry, who are you looking for? I need to confirm," said the guard.

"Ah? Need confirmation? Uh... who are we looking for?" Chen Tianlong hadn’t expected the university to have such measures, so he quickly asked Liu Ting for any suggestions.

"Gah?"

Liu Ting was stunned. Even Chen Tianlong didn’t have a solution, so how could she? In a rush, she thought of the famous local family, the Fang Family.

If a Fang Family member was attending university, it would definitely be at Ice City University, no doubt about it.

"Fang Fang Fang..."

"Fang Chuanting!" Chen Tianlong suddenly recalled a name. He didn’t quite remember who it was, but these three words flashed in his mind.

"Oh? Looking for Miss Fang? My apologies, please go in," the guard, hearing it was someone from the Fang Family, immediately became respectful, not daring to inquire further.

Actually, a university gate never really needed such detailed inquiries; now, knowing they were from the Fang Family, how could he make a fuss?

"Wow! Didn’t expect just blurting out a name would work like this," Chen Tianlong was astonished, not expecting the efficacy of just making up a name.
