Chapter 1482 - 1481: Chance Encounter

During the day, the bustling and noisy city is incredibly lively and vibrant, with people coming and going on the streets, giving off the air of a modern metropolis.

This is Bath City in the United Kingdom, a city built among the hills, yet not very large, giving a sense of deep tranquility amidst the bustling.

At this moment, Lu Yu is walking the streets of Bath City, dressed in black, tight-fitting attire. His strides are steady and slow, giving a sense of shrouded determination.

Lu Yu now, having escaped from Naihe Island and experienced a high-altitude parachute jump of over ten thousand meters, seems somewhat weathered.

Yet, this weathered look causes disdainful glances from passing pedestrians, who all steer clear.

Lu Yu, however, pays no heed to the disdain on the faces of bystanders as his mind is preoccupied with thoughts on how to deal with the Shadow Luo Organization, without much thought on other matters.

Destroying Adelheid's many reserved bodies, such an action is undoubtedly a provocation and challenge to Adelheid!

Moreover, Lu Yu is also planning a full-scale attack and siege on Naihe Island. If successful, it will surely provoke the most intense reaction from the Shadow Luo Organization!

By then, the Shadow Luo Organization might strike with full force, and it's precisely for this reason that Lu Yu is pondering these matters!

"Gentleman..."

While Lu Yu is lost in thought, suddenly, a lively voice breaks in—a pure British accent, clear and pleasant.

Hearing the voice, Lu Yu glances back and sees a blonde girl standing behind him, holding half a bottle of whiskey in her hand, she says to Lu Yu, "I've been observing you for a while, you must be a Wanderer. This half bottle of wine is a gift from me, I hope you like this city."

Upon hearing this, the girl's openness and cheerfulness exude a casual, lively demeanor, drawing a slight smile even from Lu Yu's lips.

In today's exceptionally indifferent world where everyone minds their own business, to have a girl see someone's weathered appearance and voluntarily offer half a bottle of wine in a foreign land, this act truly warms the heart.

Seeing this, Lu Yu accepts the half bottle of whiskey. His gaze lifts to examine the girl in front of him, noticing her youthful, vibrant appearance with a short-sleeved outfit. Her jeans, slightly faded from repeated washes, reveal a contrast to the polished looks of other girls on the street.

Evidently, this girl's everyday life is not very affluent.

Seeing this, the smile on Lu Yu's face grows, for, with her own life being unsatisfactory, she still offers a drink to a stranger, showcasing a truly admirable spirit.

"Thank you for the wine."

Reflecting on this, Lu Yu speaks in a deep voice, gazing at the girl before him, speaking steadily, "Beautiful, kind-hearted girl."

As he speaks, Lu Yu tilts his head back, taking a swig of whiskey, a calm yet powerful smile appearing on his face.

"You don't need to thank me, Wanderer. I envy your lifestyle of calling the world home."

The girl smiles, saying, "I want to see the world too, to know what lies beyond Bath, which is why I envy people like you."

As she speaks, her cheerful smile is infectious, spreading her vibrant energy to those around her.

This girl seems like a gentle ray of sunshine, bright and lively.

Hearing the girl's words, Lu Yu smiles slightly and then states, "Then I wish your aspirations come true soon."

Speaking, Lu Yu raises the half bottle of whiskey in his hand, speaking with a carefree tone.

"It will, Wanderer,"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, the girl replies cheerfully, her voice full of laughter, like a beam of sunlight—radiant and warm: "I will make it happen!"

As she speaks, the girl raises her arm.

However, as the girl raises her arm, Lu Yu notices a faint yellowish mark on her fingers, barely visible but caught by Lu Yu's sharp eyes.

Such a yellowish mark clearly indicates bruising not yet healed, marks likely caused by being struck with something!

Seeing this, Lu Yu's eyes reveal a hint of depth, yet he shows nothing, instead taking a big swig of the whiskey, then says, "I wish you success in achieving your goal soon!"

In his words, Lu Yu appears carefree, but he secretly keeps an eye on the girl.

This girl's life clearly isn't smooth, yet she remains so sunny and kind-hearted; for this alone, Lu Yu is inclined to learn more about what she is going through.

"Thank you for your auspicious words, and may you always have whiskey in your days ahead!"

As she speaks, the girl gives Lu Yu a cheerful smile, then turns and runs off to the side.

"Interesting,"

Watching the girl leave, Lu Yu's lips curl slightly, as he tilts back his head, finishing off the whiskey, then watching in the direction of the girl's departure, he murmurs, "Consider it a moment of relaxation!"

Speaking, Lu Yu's figure suddenly shifts, disappearing in an instant without a trace!

Lu Yu now is deeply concerned about this girl, especially in such an indifferent world, someone so sunny and vibrant is truly rare!

Precisely because of this, Lu Yu wants to help this girl.

Thinking of this, Lu Yu leaps from building to building, following the girl quietly and quickly, as if a ghost.

He wants to see what unspoken troubles this bright and lively girl has.
