"When I first entered Euubs, I saw a custom sports car parked next to the entrance, engine running, no one inside. For someone, it was a stealth opportunity," Sheehan said, his thoughts jumping around a bit. "It was so bizarre it was mind-blowing, so when I got off the highway, I thought, 'I can get another one, Euubs's got the job covered.' And then that owner saw me—"

She said in a somewhat eerie tone, "I got beaten up really badly that time—then that bastard found out I was an operative, and he was so happy that he just threw the car keys at me and gave me 30,000 US dollars, saying it was a pity that he only had that much cash in his pocket, otherwise he would have made amends properly."

As she said this, she took a new ticket out of her pocket: "Look, now I'm involved too."

"Perhaps no one can escape it."

Sheen laughed nervously.

After she finished laughing, she got up and walked to the front hall. She took a package with a blueberry pattern from the refrigerator and said to him, "Want some? It's not expired. It refreshes every time I take it, just like a respawn point in a game."

He Yu slowly sat up.

He noticed several healing bandages on Sheen's wrists—she must have done them herself, and quite professionally—the warm light in the bedroom illuminated the crisscrossing wounds on her body.

She rolled up her sleeves, revealing countless old wounds from her dark and tragic past, as if they had completely torn her body apart.

This was originally the body of a warrior, He Yu thought, and also the remains that crawled out of the depths of hell, now, after so many years, it was displayed under the lights without a care.

He recalled how Sheen looked when he first met her in the restaurant; the woman seemed unresponsive to everything, appearing unusually fragile, like a small flame that could go out at any moment.

But she will not be extinguished. She is so stubborn. Having experienced countless moments of despair and battle in Eoubs, even if all she shows is incomprehensible neuroticism, she still possesses such a powerful strength in her bones.

Sheen handed him another glass of juice, which He Yu took and drank.

She used her military knife to cut open the packaging bag, then skillfully cut the pastries, saying, "Eat something to replenish your energy. You were like a zombie just now, all thrashing around. I almost killed you."

She handed over He Yu's portion and continued, "There's one more thing. I saw this guide in the bedside table."

He Yu turned to look at him. Xi En put away his knife, took out the object, and said, "Look at this."

The first thing I saw was a notebook, about the same size as Carlos's, but much thinner.

The content is very obscure and confusing.

【Dear passenger, hello.】

【It's a pleasure to have you stay at Dolphin Hotel. Our hotel boasts the best service and most comprehensive facilities in the Americas. Our entire staff is dedicated to providing you with the most impeccable service. However, please adhere to the following guidelines so we can offer you even better service.】

He Yu almost spilled the drink in his cup after only a few glances.

"Strange Tales Based on Rules?"

When he and Carlos arrived here, they had read several magazines on the plane. These magazines were filled with stories of all sorts of new styles, mostly created by people who had nothing better to do. People piled up fear and death here with extreme fervor, as if they were offering it as a tribute to something.

But now, those ignorant believers offer sacrifices just to send people to hell.

This is not good news.

“I’ve never heard of this before. You know, we barely have time to surf the internet. After all, it’s hard to survive without those drugs.” Sheen shrugged, pulling out a completely empty bottle as he said, “I can’t guarantee how long I can stay conscious either.”

"I will help if necessary."

It means sending you to the Western Paradise.

He Yu continued reading.
