Behind him stood a girl with short, curly hair in a long, patterned dress. She bore a strong resemblance to him.
"When you killed that Water Beast earlier, I saw that you and your friends are quite skilled, Brother Lu."
The young man with the slicked-back hair struck up a conversation, asking with a smile, "Is this your first time in Red Maple?"

Although United Shipping's security team handled most of the threat, a few passengers still came close to being injured.
They had been in the right place at the right time, and had stepped in to save a few people. In doing so, they revealed some of their skills and made a brief acquaintance with the young man before them, Xu Fengling.
"That's right. Are you also getting off at Red Maple, Brother Xu?"
Lu Chao asked with a nod, making small talk.
