Chapter 198 I am Sailor Moon, representing love and justice

Fang Ke casually browsed through travel guides for Bailang Mountain on Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book) to get a general understanding of the place. Following the advice of netizens, she found the fastest route up the mountain and made it before Fang Yefan and the others.

After a brief search, she quickly identified three men who were hiding and had menacing expressions.

Fang Ke lay hidden in the tree, dressed in a white windbreaker, white scarf and hat, almost blending into the snow.

Three men below were cursing angrily, "It's almost five o'clock, where are the women?"

"Brother, I have a bad feeling. Let's go into the mountains and get out of the border first. Let's not wait for that woman."

"Second Brother, you make it sound so easy. If that woman doesn't take her with her, how will that person transfer the money to us?"

"This message came out of nowhere, and the amount of money is unreasonable. Although it was introduced by Brother Jia, what if Brother Jia was also bribed by the cops... Could this just be a setup?"

"Holy crap... Brother Jia got caught too?"

The three men were terrified by what the second brother said. Finally, the scarred leader spoke in a deep voice, "The second brother's intuition is always right. Listen to him. Let's wait five more minutes. If no one is there, grab your tools and leave immediately."

Hearing them talk about tools, Fang Ke then noticed a snakeskin bag not far behind the three of them. Inside the bag were hemp rope, a hammer, a shovel, a machete, a boning knife, some glass bottles containing an unknown liquid, and two hunting rifles.

Fang Ke's eyes darkened slightly. If even one or two of these "tools" were used on an ordinary person, they probably wouldn't even leave behind a complete corpse.

"Damn it, but I'm really curious, what kind of woman is she that they actually offered a million to let us take her away and kill her?"

The second brother, with his pockmarked face like a viper, said, "When I went up the mountain, I noticed that a film crew was stationed at Pingdingpo, not far from here, and some celebrities from the city were filming here."

The third brother looked like a fat monk, too tall and too thin, like two sections of bamboo poles.

He immediately slapped his thigh and said, "Damn, who knows which female celebrity we're waiting for? Damn it, what a loss! I've never been with a female celebrity in my life. If only I could..."

The pockmarked man immediately interrupted his delusions, "At a time like this, you're still thinking about your two ounces of flesh? You're just waiting to die. If a female celebrity really goes missing, the entire police force of Montreal will come to search the mountains for her. Do you think we can still escape?"

"Damn... Second Brother, you're too scary. Why don't we just take her across the border and play around with her? By then we'll have her and the money, we can just poison the woman, make her mute, and sell her to an underground brothel. Who can stop us then? Even if the cops search the mountains, it won't do any good."

"You always think too highly of things; it's never that easy!"

Scarface interrupted their argument, "Listen to the second brother, third brother, are you leaving or not? Five minutes are up, get out of here."

Fat Monk was still a little unwilling, but Scarface and Pockmarked Face had already darkened their expressions. "If you're not leaving, we're leaving first. You can stay here and wait for your female celebrity and keep dreaming!"

Fat Monk quickly said, "Brother, of course I'll go with you guys! I was just joking about the female celebrity!"

He spat, "Damn it, once I get across the border, I'm definitely going to find a few Russian women to vent my frustrations on. Russian women are just as good-looking as movie stars..."

He turned to get the snakeskin bag, only to find that the place where they kept their things was empty.

The fat monk was startled. "Where is it?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Scarface let out a scream. He was now hanging high in the tree with a rope around his neck, kicking and struggling in agony.

The pockmarked man shouted, "Big brother! Who is it? Come out!"

A person wearing a white windbreaker, sunglasses, and a mask appeared in the woods, making it impossible to tell whether they were male or female.

She was holding a rope in her hand. As soon as she jumped down from the tree, Scarface was lifted into the air like a seesaw.

"Who are you..." The pockmarked man and the fat monk were startled and asked in unison.

"You're a police officer? You don't seem like it..."

The person behind the mask suddenly laughed, "I am Sailor Moon, and I will represent love and justice to destroy you."

"..."

Judging from the voice, it really is a woman!

The pockmarked man, his skin crawling with dread, shouted to the fat monk closest to the woman, "Third brother, run!"

The fat monk had no time to react. He turned around in horror and saw a hammer whistling toward his head. He felt dizzy and his blood vessels rupture. He fell to the ground, unable to move.

"Sorry, none of you three can escape today."

The woman spoke calmly, her ruthlessness terrifying even the criminal who had committed the massacre of his entire family.

The pockmarked man forced himself to remain calm. "...This is murder. Even if we are fugitives, we still have human rights. Aren't you afraid of being arrested by the police?"

The woman found it amusing. "What, you're afraid of killing? Isn't that what you're best at?"

She tossed aside the hammer, twisted her wrist, and said leisurely, "Don't worry, I checked the weather forecast. The snow will get even heavier in a bit. Your bodies will be buried silently by the snow, and no one will know."

"This way you won't have to worry about getting caught and ultimately being judged by a bullet of justice. You'll be buried in such a beautiful snow-capped mountain. Shouldn't you thank me?"

The pockmarked man considered himself to be an antisocial personality and very abnormal, but the masked woman he encountered today, speaking in the most ethereal voice, made him feel extremely uneasy and disturbed.

At that moment, he actually wanted to be caught by the cops. At least he could survive for two years in jail instead of dying silently in this desolate wilderness, where he might end up being devoured by wild wolves and dogs, leaving no trace of his body.

With one hand on his waist, the pockmarked man tried to reason with her, saying, "What do you want? We still have gold bars hidden in the mountains. If you let me go, I'll tell you where they are."

"Gold bars? Wow, how many? Tell me, is it enough to buy your life?"

"At least a ton! At the current market price, that's worth more than 600 million. How about that, enough to buy my worthless life?"

"One ton... You guys robbed a gold shop? That's amazing."

The woman seemed to be swayed by his words. "This is a wonderful surprise. Let me think... how do I know you're not lying to me?"

“I have an electronic map of the buried location on my phone. The three of us brothers were wanted because of this ton of gold. Ha, what’s a few murders? If we find the gold, those officials can be promoted several ranks!”

While speaking excitedly, the pockmarked man finally found his opportunity. Taking advantage of the moment when the woman was distracted by thinking, he suddenly pulled out a pistol from his waist and pulled the trigger hard in mid-air.

"Go to hell!"

Whoever this strange woman is, may she die! It's good that the eldest and third brothers are dead, so he can have all that ton of gold!

This turn of events was like a godsend for him; he had long been annoyed by those two brutes and idiots. Good riddance!

Bang!

A deafening gunshot startled all the birds in the forest, and even Fang Yefan and his companions, who were walking on the mountain path, heard it.

"...Fang Ke." Fang Yefan's face turned deathly pale. Suddenly, all reason vanished, and he rushed forward like a madman, shouting, "Fang Ke, where are you!"

Wu Cong quickly caught up and called out to him, "Keep your voice down, what if you attract the fugitive's attention? You need to stay calm, especially in situations like this!"

"I can't calm down!"

"Then shut up. We'll go up the mountain first and leave trail markers for the armed police so they can catch up quickly."

Fang Yefan's breathing became rapid, feeling as if he was being pushed to his limit...

What should he do? What if something really happens to him? How can he go back and explain to his parents? How can he... forgive himself?
