"Clothes, it turned out to be that piece of clothing..."
Ren Ke closed her eyes tightly. She had thought of many reasons, but she never thought it would be that dress that happened by mistake...
"Ren Ke?" Lin Wu called her with a frown.
Ren Ke took a deep breath and opened his eyes to look at her.
The forest in front of her suddenly became blurred. She opened her mouth subconsciously, but only let out a sob. Then she realized that tears were welling up in her eyes again.
Lin Wu sensed something was wrong, stepped onto the stairs, and asked, "What's wrong?" She was very perceptive: "What's wrong with that dress?"
At this moment, many images flashed through Ren Ke's mind, making her a little dazed.
When the devastated island came into view, Ren Ke was stunned.
A few seconds later, Ren Ke wiped his face clean with a look of relief, and dragged Lin Wu towards the car not far away.
"Nothing." Ren Ke's voice returned to normal. "After today, everything will be brand new. Come on, hurry up and finish the rest of your work. I'm going to find a good place to rest and recuperate!"
Lin Wu was also stunned and looked back at the entrance to the castle on the steps.
She seemed to be thinking about something, and without asking any more questions, she continued, "If we are lucky, everything will be over by this time tomorrow."
"What if I'm unlucky?"
"Then die. The city lord's troubles have not been resolved yet."
“………”
Ren Ke said speechlessly: "I knew that following you would mean risking my life. Let me tell you, you owe me a favor this time. You have to do me a favor and erase my name from the international organization."
Lin Wu raised his eyebrows: "Don't you mind this?"
Ren Ke said confidently: "I want to live an ordinary life in the future, is that not okay?"
"OK."
Lin Wu slipped one hand into his coat pocket and gently pressed his abdomen. He walked forward with a normal expression and said, "Go find Guan Chen later. He will do it."
The smell of blood lingered in the air for a long time, all as a result of tonight's turmoil.
No one noticed anything.
Ren Ke stared at Lin Wu absentmindedly, and suddenly said, "Lin Wu, if I had the chance again, I would still choose you. Becoming friends with you is the thing I will never regret doing in all these years."
Lin Wu was stunned for a moment, then said with a chill, "You are so fucking disgusting. Did your fake death take your brain away as well?"
"Get out." Ren Ke's face turned black.
Lin Wu nodded: "Well, this is you."
The corner of Ren Ke's mouth twitched, and he turned his head away and snorted.
The two walked to the front of the car, where Ling Xiu, Zheng Lian and their people were waiting for them.
Seeing them, the two of them were considerate and did not ask anything. Zheng Lianhui reported: "Master, I left a few people here to watch, and sent the rest to other places to help patrol and place the wounded in case of emergencies."
Lin Wu nodded, and several people got in the car. Zheng Lian drove to the third pier.
When we got there, we saw quite a few people waiting at the dock.
The leader was You Yuan! The car stopped and four people got out.
You Yuan strode over and stopped in front of Lin Wu. He looked around her with concern, "How are you doing?"
"Second brother, I'm here now, and everything must have been resolved." Lin Wu explained what happened before in a few words.
You Yuan asked, "Are you injured?"
Lin Wu shook his head.
You Yuan frowned: "Then why do you smell like blood?"
"Well, there are bound to be deaths. When too many people die, they will be infected. They all have it." Lin Wu pointed at the three people around him.
You Yuan glanced at it.
Ren Ke was almost killed in Lingnan before, so he still had some trauma towards You Yuan. He blurted out, "I brought people to pick him up just in time. Under my nose, Lin Wu was not injured! As for the previous injury..."
"It's a bit serious..."
Zheng Lian said subconsciously, his face full of worry.
Ling Xiu couldn't help but think of what she saw last night and wanted to speak up.
Lin Wu calmly interrupted them and said, "The previous injury was okay. Fan needed me and treated it carefully. I also recovered for a long time and it didn't affect my movements. Otherwise, I would have collapsed from the pain after tossing and turning for so long. Do you think I am okay now?"
Lin Wu looked fine except for his pale face.
You Yuan was still worried, so he turned around and asked his subordinates to go to the boat parked at the dock and call down the accompanying doctor.
"No need, second brother." Lin Wu stopped You Yuan.
You Yuan was about to say something in disagreement, but his attention was drawn away by her next words.
"Time is running out, second brother. I have to go to the Ice Prison. There is no one in charge on the island right now. You stay and help me keep an eye on things. Zheng Lian will follow you."
Lin Wu reached out to Ling Xiu and asked her to give her the City Lord's Order and the Nine Tokens, and then give them to You Yuan.
“If the remaining people in Killer City disobey you, use this, and Zheng Lian will know how to deal with them.”
You Yuan understood the importance of this and agreed, saying, "The third brother will be guarding the entrance to the Ice Prison. When you get there, let him go in with you. Be careful and stay safe. Don't be too stubborn. Let him take care of things if necessary."
Zheng Lian hesitated, "Master, I want to follow you. As for the Second Master, I can give my trusted followers to him."
Lin Wu looked at him and said, "You've been tortured for a long time and you've been hurt a lot. You should stay and have a good rest. Besides, you can't really help me much if you follow me. When everything is over tomorrow, you can leave and find Zheng Qi, and go with him to pick up Zheng Yuan."
Zheng Lian thought about it and realized that he really couldn't help, so he nodded.
Ren Ke took advantage of the opportunity to say, "Come on, Lin Wu. The doctor is on board. Hurry up and let him take a look at you. You look so ugly."
You Yuan also urged: "Go quickly and rest on the boat for a while."
Lin Wu nodded and left with Ren Ke.
Ling Xiu was about to catch up when You Yuan suddenly stopped her and said, "Half a minute. I have something to say to you."
Ling Xiu was stunned.
Lin Wu and Ren Ke in front looked at each other and got on the boat first.
You Yuan turned and walked towards the car not far away, while Zheng Lian and his subordinates turned their backs.
Ling Xiu was silent for a moment, but finally followed.
Looking at You Yuan's back, Ling Xiu felt complicated.
They had known each other for a long time, and had been close since childhood. If nothing unexpected had happened, the relationship between the two families might have been closer, but unfortunately her family met with misfortune later...
"...I'm sorry." You Yuan heard footsteps approaching, turned around and looked at Ling Xiu and said, "If it weren't for my family, your family wouldn't have..."
"It's all in the past." Ling Xiu said calmly, "If I still blame you, I wouldn't have agreed to help you a few years ago. I know that Lin Wu wanted to help me leave Killer City, and you were also responsible for that. I've seen everything you've done over the years. We've long since cleared our ties."
You Yuan's usually indifferent face was a little stunned. After a moment of silence, he said, "What are your plans after today? I have helped you get back most of your family's assets. They are in Northern Europe. You can go there."
Ling Xiu was surprised: "When did you become so good at business?"
You Yuan did not hide it: "Chu Zhongwu helped me."
Ling Xiu's face showed a hint of strangeness: "I've heard of him. He has always been sophisticated and selfish, and he is unwilling to suffer any loss. Why would he help you do this thankless task?"
You Yuan said succinctly: "My first mission as a killer was against him, but it was unsuccessful. That's how we got to know each other. Later, when I went to look for clues about your family, I was tricked and he saved me. Then we made a deal and I entered his Fourth Special Zone to help him."
Ling Xiu: "So you stayed by his side from then on?"
You Yuan nodded.
Ling Xiu thought for a moment and said, "Not enough, right? With his personality, he swallowed up the Nordic industrial chain and spit out my family's. The loss is not small. He only wants you to enter the Fourth Special Zone. He didn't ask you to do anything else?"
You Yuan said frankly: "He wanted me for ten years."
"……?"
"...freedom, ten years of freedom." You Yuan quickly realized that his words were ambiguous, and added: "He said that I can stay or go with him when the term expires."
Ling Xiu looked at him strangely, "That's it?"
You Yuan was puzzled: "What else?"
Ling Xiu hesitated for a second before finally saying, "I've really let it go. In fact, my financial resources are enough to last me the rest of my life, so I don't want those things from Northern Europe, and I can't have them. I'm afraid that when I see them, I'll think of the past."
She took a step forward and patted You Yuan's shoulder.
"Return them to Chu Zhongwu in exchange for your deal being void."
"You Yuan, as an old friend, I suggest you consider carefully whether to stay or go when the time comes."
After that, she turned and walked towards the dock.
You Yuanwei stared at her back in amazement.
