...Grizzly Bear couldn't help but laugh at her menacing demeanor.
He knew that Firefox wouldn't jump down, at least not.
He walked over and sat down next to Firefox, then pulled out two bottles of vodka from somewhere.
"Want some drinks?"
Firefox didn't stand on ceremony with him, snatched a bottle of vodka from Grizzly's hand, tilted his head back, and gulped it down into his mouth.
The spicy liquor flowed down her throat, causing Fiora to cough involuntarily. She said nothing and took several more gulps of strong liquor.
Grizzly Bear said nothing, but silently watched Fiery Fox's profile.
Firefox has a very beautiful and bright face. When she drinks, she raises her chin slightly, and her clear jawline makes her profile look even more sharp and edgy, giving her a very arrogant appearance.
The two sat silently by the roadside for an unknown amount of time. The night was dark, and a light rain began to fall, accumulating dense water droplets on their hair and clothes.
A car slowly drove up from not far away and stopped behind the two of them.
The car window slowly rolled down, and the two turned around to see Pei Fengzhi sitting inside.
"Boss."
"Get in the car."
In the light drizzle, Pei Fengzhi seemed to sigh, or perhaps not.
Grizzly looked at Fiora beside him, only to see Fiora leap up from the ground, open the car door, and jump into the car.
"Here I am!"
She remained the same as always, as if nothing had ever happened.
"Is there a mission?"
Pei Fengzhi looked out the window and responded softly.
"Go see someone."
The car moved forward slowly.
Grizzly sat in the passenger seat, while Firefox sat next to Pei Fengzhi, one on each side. Pei Fengzhi's gaze was fixed on the scenery outside the window, and there seemed to be a very deep chasm between the two of them.
Firefox tried several times to speak to Pei Fengzhi, but couldn't find an opportunity to open his mouth.
The atmosphere in the cramped back compartment was so tense it was almost unsettling.
To Firefox's surprise, the first person to speak was Pei Fengzhi.
"Firefox, you should go back to Europe."
These few simple words made Fire Fox's fur stand on end.
"I'm not going back!"
"I just got off the plane today, and it hasn't even been 24 hours before you're telling me to go back! Pei Fengzhi, what do you take me for?! Do you think I'm a carrier pigeon? You come back to report and then immediately send me back. Even a carrier pigeon doesn't let people rest and just chase them around everywhere!"
Pei Fengzhi turned around and glanced at the furious Fire Fox. If the back of the car hadn't been so cramped, Fire Fox would probably have jumped up.
“I thought you didn’t like it here. Maybe Europe is more suitable for you. There, your freedom won’t be restricted, and you can do whatever you want most of the time.”
Firefox knew perfectly well that Pei Fengzhi's words were just an excuse; he simply wanted to get rid of her.
But things aren't that easy. She's already back; she definitely won't leave so easily!
"I'm not leaving!"
Firefox gritted his teeth and said firmly again.
"I like it here. The food in Europe is just awful; I can't eat or sleep well!"
Fire Fox pouted and suddenly leaned her upper body towards Pei Fengzhi.
"Look, boss, I've lost so much weight."
She even winked at Pei Fengzhi, flirting with him without batting an eye.
"Why don't you touch it? It'll be more obvious."
Pei Fengzhi had a headache; this woman was truly...helpless.
He weakly gave Firefox a warning.
"Go back and sit down!"
Firefox understood that Pei Fengzhi wasn't going to kick him out.
She smiled and stuck her tongue out at Pei Fengzhi.
"Yes, sir!"
The car finally stopped at a suburban estate.
The main iron gate of the manor did not open; instead, a side gate opened and several bodyguards came out and approached the car window.
The rear window was opened.
Upon seeing Pei Fengzhi sitting inside, the bodyguard immediately bowed and stepped aside.
"Ninth Master Pei".
Pei Fengzhi's face was expressionless.
The large iron gate in front opened, and the car slowly drove into the manor.
The bodyguard pressed his earpiece and spoke into the radio to the person on the other end.
"Master Pei is here. Send someone to serve him carefully!"
...
Meanwhile, Ye Ningwan, who should have been sleeping peacefully in her villa on the hillside, was now standing outside the high walls of the manor, looking up at the three-meter-high walls and the one-and-a-half-meter-high electric fence above.
She sighed softly and shook her head with a hint of helplessness. It was clear that the owner of this manor was indeed very afraid of death.
Ye Ningwan turned on her phone.
The first thing that popped up on her phone screen was a page she had seen before, a dark web task page with a black cover and a few bloody words written on it.
Mission: Assassinate Li Mochuan
Amount: 200 Bitcoins
Below are a bunch of comments from passersby.
"Who did Li Mochuan offend? They actually offered him an exorbitant price of 200 bitcoins to kill him!"
"At today's latest price of 260,000 per Bitcoin, that's 54 million! That's incredible!"
"Isn't Li Mochuan the heir of the Li family, one of the four great families in the capital? But Li Mochuan is usually very arrogant, decisive and ruthless. He has offended many people, and there are probably many people in the world who want him dead!"
