Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 516: 331. Whose Trap Is It Anyway?

When the clock struck nine.

The fountains at Kaiyuan Lake, opposite Quanshun Plaza, shot up into the sky in an instant.

Beautiful music surrounded the streams of water, like a grand ceremony.

However.

The Assassin from the Jindai family, who was supposed to appear at Quanshun Plaza at that time, did not show up.

“Miss Jindai Kongyin, why have you decided to develop your career in China? As we know, you had a very successful collaboration with Director Miyai in the Island Country, and you have won many awards for your previous films. Won’t starting over in China affect your future development?” a reporter asked.

This was actually the first reaction of the media after learning that Jindai Kongyin was coming to develop her career in China.

Jindai Kongyin was not at a loss in the Island Country, those in the know were aware that she was already considered a diva of literature and arts there, likely having contracts that could line up for the next three years.

Why would such a person suddenly come to China?

Jindai Kongyin sat behind the table at the press conference, and she was not wearing any formal attire today, partly because of the cold weather as the news conference was held outdoors.

On the other hand, it was due to the hurried arrangement, and Kyushu could not possibly prepare these for her.

However, her snow-white turtleneck sweater quite suited her Goddess of Forest image.

Jindai Kongyin smiled and said to the reporters, “As everyone knows, my father is Chinese, so strictly speaking, this is my homeland. In earlier years in the Island Country, I often struggled with the local food until I had my first taste of fish-fragrant shredded pork back in China, and then I realized I truly belong here.”

During the talk, Jindai Kongyin’s eyes were constantly scanning the crowd.

It looked as though she was smiling and greeting her fans.

In reality, she was searching the crowd for a familiar figure.

But to her disappointment, Qing Chen did not show up here.

The next reporter suddenly asked, “Hello, Miss Jindai Kongyin, there are rumors that you have actually become a Time Traveler and are a core member of the Jindai family. You came to develop in China to avoid being assassinated by the Jindai family, is that so?”

Nowadays, in the Outer World, there are too many reports about the Inner World, and the keen paparazzi were already publicizing information they had gathered about the Inner World.

The trending topics on social media every day are all related to the Inner World.

So, they knew about Jindai, knew about Deer Island, knew about the Li Clan…

If Jindai Kongyin’s identity as a Time Traveler was confirmed, then today’s press conference news would definitely make the trending searches.

Jindai Kongyin was stunned for a moment, she hadn’t expected the domestic public to be so well informed.

This indicated that someone in the know was leaking information.

However, after thinking, she smiled and said, “It’s true, but I believe my homeland will protect me, so I am not afraid of the Jindai family.”

Since it couldn’t be kept secret, she might as well not hide it.

Following that, as expected, a flurry of questions about the Inner World arose, but Jindai Kongyin did not answer them.

Realizing they couldn’t get more out of her on that topic, the reporters turned to other potentially sensational questions, “Miss Jindai Kongyin, do you know any male artists in China?”

Jindai Kongyin shook her head, “I’ve just returned to the country, so I’m not very familiar yet; I only know a few people.”

“Among these people, is there anyone who matches your ideal type?” the reporter asked.

The other reporters’ eyes lit up.

Jindai Kongyin smiled, seemingly having anticipated this question, and responded, “I already have someone I like, but he is not from the industry.”

After her reply, a staff member came forward, “Today’s press conference has concluded, thank you all for coming…”

Under the protection of the Kyushu members, Jindai Kongyin walked towards the stage.

As she left, she glanced back at the crowd, but still saw nothing.

…

…

“Boss, Jindai’s people really didn’t come,” Tang Keke said, “I’m sure there was no leak on my side. After Kunlun captured their people yesterday, Kunlun is still keeping in touch with those four Time Travelers, although they instructed these four to open the music fountain, likely to make a move, but no assassin showed up.”

Kyushu Yucheng puzzled, “They put a lot of effort into getting the music fountain open, and it certainly wasn’t to give Jindai Kongyin a gift.”

“Yeah,” He Jinqiu spoke over the communication channel, “They weren’t targeting us; they were aiming for Daylight. Perhaps, the Jindai family members have already reached the Borui Building.”

Just then, as if to confirm He Jinqiu’s guess, a sudden explosion sounded from the direction of the Borui Building, and everyone turned to look, only to see a huge flame burning at the base of the building, quickly spreading to the rooftop.

Among the crowd, Lu Yuan and others exchanged glances, then turned and ran towards the Borui Building!

Tang Keke asked, “But why? They shouldn’t know about Daylight yet, why target them? After all, only a few people know about the existence of the organization Daylight.”

He Jinqiu laughed and said, “They might not know about Daylight, more precisely, they were targeting that incredibly skilled sniper.”

He Jinqiu continued, “This sniper has appeared too frequently recently, and with a top sniper appearing in both the Inner World and Outer World, it naturally leads people to make connections. We assumed, since it was the same person on Xingshu Road and at the 18th City Mayor Street. If we could think that way, so could Jindai and Deer Island.”
