My rookie hangs up again

Chapter 24

Tao Xiaoyao hugged the vines and did not dare to move, hoping that the assassins would not notice her, and even more hoped that they were not here to kill her.

She couldn't understand. Her level was so low, and she was usually very low-key. She never said a word in the world. How could she suddenly provoke these assassins?
Just as he was thinking about it, these assassins had already arrived nearby on horseback and were stopping at the edge of the attack range. If they walked a little further, they might see her.

Tao Xiaoyao took a deep breath, adjusted her perspective and looked at the assassins, motionless.

At this time, a conversation between several of them appeared in the public chat channel. Since they were very close, she could naturally see it.

[Nearby] Assassin A: The one who was clearly nearby just now, why is it missing?

[Nearby] Assassin B: Are you offline?
[Nearby] Assassin C: Did the news leak out that the girl is hiding?
[Nearby] Assassin A: How capable do you think she is, that she can detect someone who wants to kill her?
[Nearby] Assassin C: Tsk~ She has found a new backer!

[Nearby] Assassin Ding: Zui Qingfeng is offline, who can inform her?

When Tao Xiaoyao saw this, her heart froze. It seemed that these assassins were really targeting her!

But...she really hasn't offended anyone!

Some of the assassins didn't know the truth, so someone asked her about her doubts.
[Nearby] Assassin Ding: But this thing is so strange. We can't see the person who issued the mission. Who on earth wanted to punish her like this?
[Nearby] Assassin C: I think she is just a newbie. What kind of grudge is there to make people pay big bucks to hire people to kill her every time?
[Nearby] Assassin A: I heard that this girl offended the gang leader of Jueqing Palace, so she was hunted all day long.

[Nearby] Assassin Ding: The gang leader of Jueqing Palace?Enchanting Emperor Ji?That woman is not a good person, she is scheming and resourceful, and she is extremely rich!
[Nearby] Assassin B: If we really offend her, then this girl will be in trouble!
Tao Xiaoyao was a little nervous. Fortunately, she hid herself in advance, otherwise she wouldn't be able to see these conversations.

But she still doesn't quite understand. She doesn't know the people in Jueqing Palace, let alone the Emperor Ji mentioned by the assassin, so how could she have an affair with her?

She wanted to hear a few more inside stories, but suddenly she noticed a red heart appeared on the mini-map and was moving towards her. It seemed like there were her friends around.

Before she could click on the list to check her friends' information, she saw a sentence suddenly added to the public channel, which instantly revealed her true form...

[Nearby] Yingzhilian: @桃小魔, you are indeed here!Come down, come down!Let’s team up and do the mission!
Black lines fell one after another on Tao Xiaoyao's head, and his fingers were stiff and unable to type a single word.

Sakura Zhilian is one of her few friends in the game. She has known her since Novice Village. They usually do missions together, and they have a good relationship.

Tao Xiaoyao was about to send her a secret message to tell her not to talk to him on the public channel, but it was too late.

[Nearby] Assassin A: She is indeed nearby!
[Nearby] Assassin B: The location must be hidden, find it quickly!

Before he finished speaking, several assassins jumped up one after another, searching in different directions. Soon they were within the attack range, and Tao Xiaoyao's figure was exposed to everyone in an instant.

She hugged the vines and looked down blankly, like a frightened koala. Her eyes fell on Sakura Zhilian, who was running towards her. She really regretted not blocking her friends just now...
