Chapter 374: The Holder of the Devil Card, Warden of Garden Prison

"Performance? What performance?"

"Big Brother doesn't know? She's a very famous big star, you know. She has fans in every city."

"Do I have any reason to know her?"

"Hmm... also true. Brother Qiyan really doesn't seem like the type who uses celebrity chasing to relieve stress."

Celebrity chasing? Relieve stress?

That's right.

Perhaps for some Train Conductors.

Being a fan of a star is also a good medicine for quickly recovering one's spirit in the cruel, endless train platforms.

"However, Big Brother, since you're already here, you must have come to participate in the Garden Festival too, right? Our guild is responsible for the security work for the performance. It's a free show, might as well watch it."

She seemed very eager for Ye Qiyan to go to the performance venue.

Ye Qiyan thought for a moment and didn't refuse.

Although something was destined to happen in the Hanging Gardens, as the saying goes, you can't guard against a thief for a thousand days.

His primary goal upon coming to the city would not change.

That is.

Entertainment.

"Alright, but you didn't look for me just for this, right?"

She was being overly enthusiastic.

Even though the two of them knew each other.

The connection between them wasn't enough to warrant such familiarity.

"Hehe~ Big Brother, you saw right through that~ How about we talk face to face? It's not clear to explain here."

"Troublesome matters are out, and I'm not hungry, I don't want a late-night snack."

"No, no, no, Big Brother is so impatient... alright, I'll just say it."

Fengfeng on the other end of the chat box seemed to be thinking. After a while, she sent a new message.

"Big Brother, do you... still want to obtain other Demon Cards?"

Ye Qiyan, who was eating barbecue, paused his movements.

He put down the skewer, and his gaze shifted from lazy to its usual state.

"What's the price?"

"Ah, it's not a transaction... just some information... How about we still talk face to face?"

"Fine."

Other matters could be ignored.

But Demon Cards were different.

Even if the other party had some kind of purpose.

So what?

Ye Qiyan remembered very clearly.

A certain high-ranking official in the Hanging Gardens possessed a Demon Card.

Was the information Fengfeng mentioned about that person?

Late at night, time: [23:20:53]

District 11 of the Hanging Gardens.

A private room in a Western restaurant located a little over five hundred meters from the Formula One Cola shop.

Knock knock knock—

A knocking sound.

The door to the private room was pushed open.

The loli-bodied girl, Station Lord, Fengfeng, pushed the door open a crack.

She stuck her head in from outside.

"Ah, found you, Big Brother. Sorry, sorry, I'm a little late. Getting from our District 4 to this District 11 takes too much time."

She ran in, closed the door behind her, sat down opposite Ye Qiyan, and her eyes immediately lit up when she saw the table full of various foods.

"I've been busy all day, I'm practically starving to death~ Hehe, Big Brother, this meal is on me. Feel free to order anything else you want~"

Ye Qiyan rested his chin on one hand, looked at the petite Fengfeng, and said:

"Didn't you already change back? Why are you like this again now?"

"Um... hehe... that form consumes too much energy..."

She didn't explain in detail. It seemed something had happened after she left that Station World.

Ye Qiyan didn't intend to pry into her secrets and got straight to the point.

"Tell me about the Demon Card matter."

"..."

She stopped her eating movements.

Her originally grinning expression gradually turned serious.

"A high-ranking official in the Hanging Gardens, no, to be precise, the Warden of the Hanging Gardens Prison, possesses a Demon Card in his hands."

As expected, Ye Qiyan's thoughts were correct.

"Name?"

"Don't know. Something as mysterious as the true name of a Card Sequence, that person has never exposed it in front of others. Everyone who knew the true name of that Demon Card is dead."

"... I'm asking for the name of that Warden."

"Ah? Hehe... I misunderstood."

Fengfeng cleared her throat and sat up straight.

"Marcus, Harry Marcus. But people in the Hanging Gardens prefer to call him the Slave Master. That guy has thousands of slaves serving under him.

And among them, there aren't just native humans, but also some Train Conductors from the prison who were bought by him."

"Big Brother... I've learned many things I never thought about or cared about before during this time since I returned to the guild.

The Guild Leader of the guild I'm in said that those who possess a Card Sequence all want to obtain other cards of the same sequence.

And collectors of the same Card Sequence are naturally hostile.

So that Warden is destined to be your enemy.

So..."

"You want me to kill him? The Warden of a large city, why do you think I can do it? Moreover, since you've already joined a guild, why not ask your guild members to do it?

That's a Card Sequence, not a toy.

You should know very well how powerful a Demon's abilities are.

So, why come to me?"

Ye Qiyan wasn't blinded by excitement just because he learned information about a Card Sequence holder.

He stared into Fengfeng's eyes, as if trying to see some clue within them.

The atmosphere in the air became quite heavy.

Fengfeng lowered her head, her petite body sitting on the chair, constantly swinging her legs.

"Actually..."

She bit her lip, seeming somewhat conflicted about whether to say certain things.

After hesitating for a long time, gritting her teeth, she finally raised her head, met Ye Qiyan's gaze, and explained somewhat awkwardly:

"Actually, it's the Guild Leader of the guild I'm in who wants me to use this to invite you to join our guild.

That Warden named Marcus is already in a hostile state with our guild.

If you can defeat him and take that Demon Card, that's best. If not, we can also directly step in to provide you with help. The price is, after obtaining that Demon Card, you must join the guild.

I'm sorry, Big Brother. After I stopped being a Station Lord, I told the Guild Leader everything that happened during that time.

Ah, don't worry! I didn't tell her your name, and no one else knows I came here today."

When the snipe and the clam grapple, the fisherman profits?

Because they both possessed Demon Cards, he was destined to be hostile to that Warden.

Perhaps in that Guild Leader's eyes, Ye Qiyan would definitely not be a match for that Warden. Ultimately, they would offer assistance, thereby tying him, the possessor of a Demon Card, to the "war chariot" called the guild.

Along the way, they would also deal with the already hostile Warden.

"I understand."

Ye Qiyan smiled slightly, not angry at the words Fengfeng had spoken.

Knowing the name.

That was enough.

As for whether he could find that person? And take the Demon Card from his hands?

"That Demon Card."

"I will obtain it."
