Different World Card Master: Change the World with Cards

219: Tip offIn the early hours of the morning, as the sky was just beginning to lighten, Xu Bai suddenly heard a knocking sound, but he thought he had misheard and continued to sleep.

Everyone had gone to bed very late yesterday, and Xu Bai was truly exhausted.

“Bang.”

The door was suddenly forced open, followed by the sound of Xu Le crying loudly after being startled awake by the noise.

Xu Bai also woke up at this moment, hurriedly picked up Xu Le, and then looked up to see who had burst into the room.

At the same time, his right hand quietly reached under the pillow until he touched the cards and cards reader, then he relaxed.

This cards reader was not the one he wore on his hand, but one he had bought separately. Half of the cards under the pillow was inserted into the cards reader. Now, with just a gentle push, the cards could be read, and once read, it would form a powerful protective shield for Xu Bai and Xu Le.

However, the person in front of him greatly surprised him; he did not activate the cards under his pillow.

The person in front of him should, by all accounts, have been in the Tianlong Republic, and he hadn’t expected him to suddenly appear before him.

“Wu Zijin, why are you here?”

Xu Bai asked the other party, a little bewildered.

Right, even if he came, why did he suddenly burst into his room now?

At this moment, Xu Bai’s consciousness slowly returned, and this question popped into his head.

“There’s no time. Quickly notify the teachers and Students to gather. I’ll take you all to hide somewhere else. The Second Prince’s people are rebelling. We only have a little over half an hour to evacuate.”

Wu Zijin hurried forward to explain the situation clearly. This was a race against death, and any later might be too late.

The two words “rebelling” instantly sobered Xu Bai.

He didn’t dally, quickly picked up Xu Le, put on his shoes, and ran to find Bai Shan. At this moment, only Bai Shan could direct everyone.

Wu Zijin saw Xu Bai running out and took his own people to follow Xu Bai.

When Xu Bai ran outside, the atmosphere there also felt off. There were no servants outside. He didn’t know if Wu Zijin’s group had done it or if the servants had run off on their own.

But this was not the time to dwell on that. Xu Bai ran breathlessly towards Bai Shan’s room.

Xu Le also stopped crying, perhaps sensing the serious atmosphere, and silently hugged his brother, feeling his brother’s warm embrace... After Xu Bai arrived at Bai Shan’s door, he knocked twice, and the door opened. However, it wasn’t Bai Shan who opened the door for Xu Bai, but a tall man with a somewhat stern aura.

Seeing the person in front of him, Xu Bai flinched for a moment, but then he remembered Bai Shan’s identity and guessed that the person in front of him should be Bai Shan’s bodyguard. So, he directly stepped forward and asked.

“Hello, is Bai Shan still asleep? I’m Bai Xiaobai, and I have something very important to tell him.”

Before the person in front of him could act, Bai Shan’s clear voice came from inside, “Let him in.”

The bodyguard moved aside, and Xu Bai quickly entered. Wu Zijin wanted to go in with Xu Bai but was stopped, though Xu Bai didn’t notice...

Upon entering Bai Shan’s room, Xu Bai found that Bai Shan was not alone; there were over a dozen people. These people gave Xu Bai a similar feeling to the bodyguard just now, so they should also be personnel protecting Bai Shan.

Bai Shan was sitting on the sofa in formal clothes. It was clear that he hadn’t just woken up; he seemed to be discussing serious matters with the people next to him.

“Is there something you need to discuss now?”

Xu Bai put down Xu Le, took a breath, and then replied.

“It’s like this: my researcher, Wu Zijin, he is the Fifth Prince of the Luo Lan Empire. He just came to my room and told me that it’s no longer safe here. The Second Prince is rebelling, and he wants us to go out with him to hide.”

Bai Shan pondered for a moment after hearing Xu Bai’s words before saying,

“Actually, I had anticipated that the Second Prince would definitely not be reconciled, so I strengthened our security here. But we thought his main attack point wouldn’t be us. Did he receive definite news from someone?”

After asking, Bai Shan looked at Xu Bai, who didn’t seem like he would know such things, so he inquired about Wu Zijin’s whereabouts.

“Where is Wu Zijin? I need to talk to him.”

It was then that Xu Bai realized Wu Zijin hadn’t followed him in. “He should be outside, being stopped by the bodyguard.”

Hearing this, a bodyguard nearby quickly walked to the door and soon brought Wu Zijin in.

“Mr. Bai, hello. I was once King Jin Unius Brutus, the Fifth Prince of the Luo Lan Empire, but now, I am Wu Zijin, an ordinary researcher.”

“Hello, I won’t bother with pleasantries. I want to ask what intelligence you received? And from whom did you receive it? Why do you say this place will be unsafe?”

This was not the time for mutual probing; the main thing was to clarify everyone’s current situation, so Bai Shan directly questioned the other party.

“The Knight Captain of the Empire’s Third Guard Team once received my favor, and he was the one who revealed the news to me. Because the Second Prince’s side suspects that the Queen spread the news, and it was your idea to have the Queen come out as a judge, the Second Prince specifically dispatched a team to attack this area. The news just came through; we only have about half an hour.”

Bai Shan sighed after hearing this.

Indeed, it would be this way. Many things don’t require evidence; as long as there is suspicion, one can act. He had grown accustomed to the atmosphere in the research institute and hadn’t realized this in time.

“Alright, then where do you plan for us to hide?”

“We’ll hide in the Imperial First Hospital next door, but you might have to endure some discomfort. You’ll need to hide in the morgue downstairs. My people have also prepared some heating equipment. How long we need to hide will depend on the situation later. I estimate we’ll need to hide for one or two days.”

“Okay.” Bai Shan immediately made the decision.

Their conversation only took about a minute.

Next was to take action. Time waits for no one. Five minutes had already passed since Wu Zijin woke Xu Bai...

Bai Shan arranged for the bodyguards to first wake the teachers, then for the teachers to wake the Students. The awakened Students were then sent to wake other Students, to save as much time as possible.

In approximately 3 minutes, everyone had gathered in the hall. Along the way, although the Students had many questions, they did not speak up, as being woken up at dawn certainly meant something had happened.

Bai Shan dispatched a team of bodyguards to escort everyone. At the same time, before leaving, he also woke up the team leaders from other countries who were staying in the same residence as them, informing them of the Second Prince’s rebellion. As for where they would hide, that was not his concern.

10 minutes passed.

20 minutes passed.

Around 30 minutes, a team of soldiers approached from a distance in this direction.

In another tall tower, Bai Shan had sent someone to observe from afar using a Telescope.
