Today is Luo Qingyan's nominal day of punishment, but she appears very relaxed, showing no signs of tension or dejection whatsoever. Anyone who didn't know better would think she was some sophisticated woman going out for afternoon tea.

"Alright, Luo Qingyan, come with us!"

The newcomer remained expressionless, but Luo Qingyan merely smiled faintly. She knew it was all just for show.

Surely she can't be treated with utmost courtesy now that she's about to be executed?

She's already been informed of the specifics of how to proceed; now she just needs to cooperate with these people and put on an act.

I estimate that a special car will pick her up soon, and then she will be able to board a plane to the Northwest.

Once you're in the Northwest, the sky's the limit; once you're in her territory, she's the one who calls the shots!

She had everything planned out, which is why she was able to remain so calm and composed.

"Alright, let's go. You two lead the way!"

Luo Qingyan responded lightly, her brows furrowed with a cheerful air, as if she were going on a picnic rather than being tortured.

Seeing her nonchalant demeanor, the person who came to take her away couldn't help but twitch at the corner of their mouth.

However, this was an order from their superiors, and they had no choice but to comply.

He helped Luo Qingyan into the car and gently put a hood over her head to prevent her from looking at the scenery outside.

Luo Qingyan couldn't help but purse her lips at this moment:

"Heh, they've really made it look convincing! If I didn't know the inside story, I'd probably be scared to death by now! Sure enough, these guys are very skilled at switching people. I don't know how many people have lost their lives because of them switching people around."

"It seems I need to step up my research efforts and gradually release some of my previous findings so they can see my value and won't easily abandon me!"

Luo Qingyan had already made all sorts of plans, her calculations were quite meticulous.

At this moment, Luo Qingyan felt the car stop. She was then taken to a special room, but her hood was not removed. Instead, she remained seated there in darkness and silence.

This made Luo Qingyan's originally lighthearted mood become a little heavy, and she became a little nervous.

"Why did it take so long? Shouldn't they have taken off the hood after bringing me here, and then taken me to another place to catch a car and a plane?"

Luo Qingyan was a little suspicious, but she didn't really take it to heart, because she knew that those important figures needed her skills.

So she can only wait patiently.

Luo Qingyan had already eaten her last meal, which was indeed very lavish, and they even brought her a cup of coffee. Knowing her preferences and preparing such thoughtfulness, these important people really know how to behave...

However, she waited for a long time and no one came, which was a bit strange.

Luo Qingyan couldn't help but call out softly:

Is anyone there?

No one responded; everything was so quiet, deathly still.

At this moment, Luo Qingyan's wrists were still handcuffed behind her back, and she couldn't remove the hood from her head. Even with her strong mentality and resilience, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Something feels increasingly off.

Luo Qingyan called out several more times, and after a long while, someone finally responded:

"What are you yelling about? You're about to die, can't you be quiet for a while?"

She finally breathed a sigh of relief; it was good that someone responded.

The reason they didn't take off her hood was to better conceal her identity!

The moment she regains her sight will be the moment of her freedom...

Luo Qingyan fell silent. A short while later, she felt someone gently push her.

"Let's go, to where you belong!"

Luo Qingyan nodded slightly, indicating that she would cooperate fully.

Then, she felt herself being led around and around for quite a distance, until she finally arrived at a place where the road was not very smooth. But as soon as she arrived, she heard someone crying and sobbing next to her.

The fact that all the voices were women's left Luo Qingyan somewhat confused:

"What's going on? Why are so many women crying here?"

"Oh, right, so this is the start of a switcheroo, isn't it? The scapegoat who died in my place should be right here, right? To be on the safe side, and to make it seem less deliberate, there should be someone else! No wonder I heard so many women crying!"

"Ha, these big shots really know how to make arrangements. With so many people in chaos, naturally no one will notice my side."

"That's right, the big shots know how to get things done!"

However, just as Luo Qingyan was thinking this, her hood was removed. Having been in darkness for so long, the sudden light forced her to squint for a while to adjust.

However, when Luo Qingyan saw everything around her clearly, her heart skipped a beat:

"What's going on? This is an execution ground!"

"Were those women who were crying just now trying to switch the items with me? Did they really want them all to die?"

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"

"What are they doing? Why did they bring me to the execution ground?"

Luo Qingyan was completely panicked. She absolutely refused to believe that those important figures would abandon her.

But isn't the scene before her telling her that she has been abandoned?

Do those people no longer want her research findings? Don't those people want to live a few more years?

There must be something wrong here. Something must have gone terribly wrong somewhere, causing her to appear on the execution ground so quickly!
