Witch Special

Chapter 400 New Blue River Scene

Downstairs, Denuo Mobility's self-driving hovercraft was already waiting by the roadside. Lin Zhenxi walked to the car first, opened the door, and turned to look at Yan Qing, who was a few steps behind him.

She made a "please" gesture.

Yan Qing gave Lin Zhenxi a very beautiful smile, then walked past Lin Zhenxi, bent down and got into the car.

Lin Zhenxi followed closely behind, carrying the black cat. The wing-shaped doors of the hover car closed automatically and started quietly. The routine advertising slogan of "Denuo Travel" began to play on the central control display screen in front.

Lin Zhenxi sat across from Yan Qing and noticed that Yan Qing was staring at him, so he asked, "Yan Miao, why are you looking at me all the time?"

"Because it's rare to see Maki wearing a skirt. Well, no, I have to take a picture and save it." After saying that, Yan Qing raised her personal terminal that looked like a game console and pointed it at Lin Maki.

Lin Zhenxi wanted to stop him, but then she thought, she wasn't that ugly, so why should she be afraid of having her photo taken? Besides, isn't it normal for a girl to put on nice clothes and take a beautiful selfie? Lin Zhenxi, who needed her bestie to take the photo so she wouldn't forget, was already unconventional enough. If she resisted taking photos herself, she'd probably be even more unconventional.

After all, which normal girl would refuse her best friend to take photos for her? She might even ask her best friend to edit the photos to make them look better.

So Lin Zhenxi suppressed the idea of ​​blocking Yan Qing's personal terminal camera, straightened his back, and sat in a very dignified posture. He looked at Yan Qing with soft eyes and a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

Being stared at with such a gaze she had never seen before (even though Lin Zhenxi was actually looking at the camera), Yan Qing felt as if a weak electric current was running through her body, numbing not only her back but also her scalp. However, she relied on her excellent body control to suppress the strange expression and focus on adjusting the camera parameters.

She quickly adjusted the camera to the most suitable state for the moment and pressed the shutter button. With a click, Lin Zhenxi, wearing a cream-colored dress and smiling faintly, appeared on Yan Qing's personal terminal.

"Let me see the effect." Lin Zhenxi's pretended expression immediately relaxed. She grabbed the handle of the car with her arm, exerted a little force, moved her body and ran to Yan Qing's side, put her head over and looked at Yan Qing's personal terminal.

Yan Qing cut out the photo she had just taken, and then began to skillfully make some adjustments to the photo quality, brightening and softening it, blurring out unnecessary wrinkles and details, and soon processed the photo to the level of an artistic photo, which could be printed out and put into a frame.

"Clang clang~ Done. Look, isn't it beautiful? Meow!" Yan Qing proudly showed Lin Zhenxi her expertise in image processing.

Lin Zhenxi stared at the photo of herself, feeling a strong sense of unreality. Is this really herself? It seems so different from the person she sees in the mirror when she washes up in the morning.

"Yan Miao, your photography skills are amazing. I feel that the photos you have processed are much more beautiful than me." Lin Zhenxi exclaimed from the bottom of her heart.

"Hehe, no such thing, it's just that you have a good foundation, Maki, I just made some minor adjustments. If you weren't so good-looking, I couldn't achieve this effect even if I set the parameters to the maximum, meow!" Yan Qing held the personal terminal in her arms and said with a smile, while her tail swayed lively from side to side, and she looked very happy.

Lin Zhenxi didn't know how to respond to this, because she felt Yan Qing was exaggerating. Lin Zhenxi knew she wasn't bad looking, probably a bit above average, but only slightly. She wasn't a superstar, let alone a woman as beautiful as a woman of heavenly beauty. Yan Qing had edited her photo to look like a truly stunning beauty, which must have been due to her exceptional skills.

After all, Yan Qing is an internet celebrity and has no team to support her. She has to do everything by herself, from copywriting to makeup to the final screen. Over time, she must have become a semi-expert in areas related to the camera.

Anyway, she is much, much better than Lin Zhenxi.

Lin Zhenxi saw Yan Qing put away her personal device after taking her own photo. It was obvious that she didn't want to take another photo of herself. She opened her mouth to say something, but then she immediately realized that according to the rules of reciprocity, she should be the one taking the photo of Yan Qing. After all, it was Yan Qing's personal device, and she could take photos of herself anytime she wanted.

But let Lin Zhenxi take the photo? Putting aside whether her photo was good or not, why would she keep Yan Qing's photo in her personal terminal?

Feeling the topic might stray further, Lin Zhenxi quickly put the brakes on her thoughts and thought about what to change the subject. Just then, she noticed the scenery outside the window had become very unfamiliar. A shimmering river ran almost parallel to the road, and she could see many people squatting by the river, fishing with their fishing rods.

This is the New Blue River.

Xinlan City is huge. Really, really huge. In just ten years, Xinlan City has expanded like a spoonful of batter, smoothed out by a skilled pancake chef in circles. Now, it covers thousands of square kilometers, a truly emerging super-first-tier city.

Although the city's area has been expanding, the general expansion direction of Xinlan City is still along a main vein, that is, the Xinlan River.

Xinlan River was not called this name in the past, but later because of the construction of Xinlan City and its increasing importance, the river was simply changed to the name of the city.

The Xinlan River splits into two branches in the heart of Xinlan City, one flowing eastward and the other southeastward, each heading to a different estuary. The upper reaches of the Xinlan River are a large river with abundant water flowing from the snow-capped mountains of the plateau.

Gazing out the window at the peaceful river, Lin Zhenxi thought of the demonic lair he'd seen in Haizhu City. If a demon could swim upstream, the vast river could harbor even the largest, higher-level Paradox Entities. If that demon could then directly devastate New Blue City, what would become of it?

But then, Lin Zhenxi shook his head, rejecting his inner worries. What was he thinking? How could the evil demon come to Xinlan City? This was the company's territory. How could the evil demon dare to offend the company with his small weight? This was not the way to seek death.

But it was obvious that the evil demons also had some bad ideas about New Blue City. After all, they had caused trouble in "Zone K" before. However, New Blue City was completely under the control of the "Company", and only the control of "Zone K" was slightly weaker. The evil demons had no way to infiltrate New Blue City like they did in other cities.

By the way, it had been over half a year since Lin Zhenxi returned home. The magic power replenishment array she had given Su Fengxia, which was an improvement on the Spirit Gathering Array, should have been transformed by Order Logic into a product that could increase the Theorem Maker's endurance, right? She didn't have Su Fengxia's contact information, and she and Jingjing hadn't contacted each other since they parted ways, so she wasn't sure about the progress in this regard.

But there shouldn't be any problem, after all, it was Order Logic, not her, Lin Zhenxi, who was fighting desperately with Disorder Chaos. Now that they finally got the treasure that can enhance the strength of theorem users, it should be Order Logic who is anxious to transform the technology into a finished product. It is not the turn of Lin Zhenxi, the technology provider, to worry about it at all.

Should I contact Jingjing? Calculating the date, it seems like it's Chinese New Year now, right?

In New Blue City, you don't notice any significant seasonal changes. The temperature here doesn't vary by more than five degrees Celsius year-round. Even when it's nearly freezing outside, you can still wear short-sleeved shirts, shorts, and miniskirts inside. This is a testament to New Blue City's technological prowess and a major draw for tourists.

After all, who wouldn't want to spend the freezing cold winter wearing light, summer clothes, strolling along a bright, clean pedestrian street, enjoying the pleasures of eating and shopping? No need to travel to the exorbitantly expensive islands further south; New Blue City can satisfy all of tourists' shopping needs and even offer many unique services not available elsewhere.

Xinlan City is known as the city of the future. Many things have been popular in Xinlan City for a long time, and may even be outdated, but they are only becoming popular in other cities and are receiving rave reviews.

Lin Zhenxi took out his personal terminal and looked at the calendar, and found that it was just the New Year's Eve. Not to mention the Chinese New Year, the students probably hadn't even had their winter vacation yet and were in the most intense stage of pre-exam review, so he gave up the idea of ​​calling Jingjing.

The girl, patting her Shenzhou tablet at the time, vowed that she must do her job as a theorem theorist well and not neglect her job as a student. I don't know if she has been tired in the past six months. After all, the burdens of these two roles are not easy.

In the short time that Lin Zhenxi was distracted, the hovercraft had already changed direction and headed directly towards the river.

"Eh?" Lin Zhenxi watched the hovercar rush out of the lane and finally realized something was wrong. Was the car out of control?

No... Lin Zhenxi looked forward and found that many hovercrafts in front of them had chosen the same route as the car they were riding, and then flew higher and higher.

Wait, the hover car is flying?
