She made such a decisive decision that she even dazzled Qian Guran!
Yang Lingxi left in a hurry, without notifying Yan Congfei in advance, planning to first create a fait accompli. This way, even if Yan Congfei wanted her to stay at the Tengxin Branch, it would already be too late.
She greeted her supervisor and left the unit, even without going back to her rented apartment, called a car to take a ride around the Ring City Expressway, and then switched to another car heading straight for the airport.
Yang Lingxi could see clearly that if she ended up safe, handling the resignation procedures at the unit, the rented house in Qi Yuan, and the things left inside... all these matters would be easy to handle.
It wasn't until she sat in the airport lounge that Yang Lingxi told her mother about this matter.
Her mother knew she went to Qi Yuan and initially thought it was because Yan Congfei introduced her to a very good job.
Actually, Yan Congfei did not introduce this job, nor did she get anyone to pull strings; instead, she let herself apply in Qi Yuan, and Yang Lingxi succeeded based on her own abilities.
Now discovering the danger of this matter, she first told her mother and then instructed her mother not to make it public, preventing her mother's endless, incessant, emotionally charged questioning.
Looking at the constant incoming messages and call requests on her phone, she suddenly felt a bit regretful. She wanted to have a trustworthy informed person, yet underestimated her mother's emotional reaction, which was unexpectedly uncalm.
Her mother, once knowing such things, would only question repeatedly about why it happened, what to do, whether her approach would work… yet not truly listening to her advice, just talking incessantly.
This completely constituted ineffective communication, and if the conversation continued, it might go on until nightfall, making Yang Lingxi somewhat muddled.
She had to leave one last message, telling her mother just to know but not to spread it, not even to act informed in front of Yan Congfei, then stopped responding to messages.
Before boarding, she finally contacted Yan Congfei using another phone, not hiding anything except the matter of contacting her mother; all other situations were truthfully told to Yan Congfei, including her responses.
She did not clarify anything, seemingly assuming that Yan Congfei was also uninformed, like reporting newly discovered intelligence.
It turned out that the company's vice president, Qian Guran, was also a sorcerer and today called her into the office to warn her face to face. She also received an email discussing a series of changes happening recently in Qi Yuan and the Magic Sect… She forwarded the email to Yan Congfei.
She told Yan Congfei that she chose to decisively leave because she didn't want to get involved, and only by doing so could she avoid implicating Yan Congfei.
Until now, they hadn't committed any substantial acts that could provide the Magic Sect a reason to pursue them.
In this regard, Yang Lingxi was very wise and her analysis was absolutely correct; from her perspective, this wave of extreme actions was almost perfect.
However, Yang Lingxi didn't know that there were people behind Yan Congfei, and those people had already taken action, at least causing accidents for Xiaomiao's father and Huang Si's mother.
...
President Qian went to work, naturally not needing to strictly adhere to attendance times. When he returned to the office in the afternoon, he heard that Yang Lingxi had already resigned and left. A while later, he received a message from Yao Shaolan—Ren Lexiong had lost track of Yang Lingxi.
Ren Lexiong is a Guest of Fate who once studied the Micro-Entry Skill but never reached the Entry Level. Later, he opened a locksmith company in Qi Yuan and had many collaborations with Yao Shaolan, not limited to locksmith services.
There are several Guests of Fate in Qi Yuan who have cooperative relationships with Yao Shaolan, forming a small circle led by Yao Shaolan, which has now included the core figure Qian Guran.
Last time, when helping He Kao retrieve a house in Guanliu District, locksmith Ren Lexiong and moving company Qian Dali both contributed.
This time, Qian Dali was entrusted by Yao Shaolan to secretly follow Xiaomiao back to his hometown. Meanwhile, overseeing Yang Lingxi was Ren Lexiong, with Yao Shaolan and Qian Guran sometimes taking turns.
It's very difficult to consistently monitor someone, but usually, just keeping tabs on a few key node areas, like the unit and residence, can help grasp their movement dynamics and timely detect anomalies.
In a modern city, real-time tracking of someone amidst anomalies, without using smartphone positioning signals and other modern technology methods, is truly difficult.
It's almost impossible to track without using transport, yet using transport without exposing oneself means even a few traffic jams or a couple of traffic light changes at intersections can lead to losing track of someone.
Ren Lexiong was riding a small motorcycle with a delivery box on the rear seat, wearing a delivery person's uniform and a helmet on his head.
This gear was the most practical and convenient, unaffected by traffic jams, and wouldn't arouse suspicion even if seen, but was only applicable in city streets and alleys.
Yang Lingxi called a car after leaving the company, left the urban area, and got on the Ring City Expressway, making Ren Lexiong's delivery scooter unable to catch up.
Ren Lexiong is not a detective and doesn't have real-time access to Yang Lingxi's phone signal positioning.
Of course, Qian Guran had a backup plan; he secretly placed a positioning transmitter at the bottom of Yang Lingxi's usual bag. Ultimately, after changing cars, Ren Lexiong tracked her to the airport based on the transmitter signal.
At this point, the positioning signal had disappeared, and even if Qian Guran had ways to find out her flight information, it was probably already too late.
Moreover, the use of such positioning signal devices assumes that Yang Lingxi hadn't discovered them. If she or someone beside her increased vigilance, or had sorcerers of Tier Three and above around, the device could easily be revealed.
...
Yang Lingxi sent a message to Qian Guran before takeoff: "President Qian, I've followed your advice and left the company. Everything ends here; I won't do anything further!"
She immediately pulled out her SIM card and put away this phone, using another phone.
As for that positioning signal generator, it was discovered during security check, causing her to break into a cold sweat.
Unlike Ren Lexiong, He Kao arrived at Qi Yuan Airport half an hour earlier than Yang Lingxi, even reaching the same destination five hours before Yang Lingxi's flight landed.
He's not an Immortal who could foresee things ahead, so how could he arrive early? This matter has to be explained from the beginning.
...
Although He Kao was in Sawa Country, his phone could still access the internet. In the afternoon, he saw in the work group that someone was expressing surprise, saying Yang Lingxi inexplicably resigned and left, without knowing what happened.
He Kao found an excuse to go back to the hotel, and soon returned to Qi Yuan, even going to the secret base in Gu Mountain, making a disguise for himself along the way.
Stealth Skill specializes in disguise, which simply means mimicking another's physical characteristics to cover one's features, not swapping faces or anything magical.
The Hidden Moth Sect might have Applied Techniques like face-switching, but He Kao hasn't learned them yet. By changing clothes and hairstyle, swapping glasses, and wearing a mask, it became very difficult for him to be recognized.
He Kao went near the company but came up empty-handed, as Yang Lingxi had already left.
He knew which district Yang Lingxi rented her apartment in, was just about to check it out, when he heard someone next to him ask: "Hey, where's the airport?"
