Chapter 9: A strange knocking sound in the dead of night in the deserted countryside...



Everyone was startled and looked toward the warehouse door.

Located near the city moat, this place is in a remote location surrounded by wild forests, and the warehouse has long been abandoned.

Given that it was already late at night, why would anyone be here?

Judging from her voice, she's a young girl.

Could they have misheard?

Old Fox was the first to react, rushing over to open the warehouse door: "Who is it?"

He was stunned for a moment after he finished speaking, and a look of amazement flashed in his eyes.

So beautiful...

The girl in front of him looked no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, with black hair and a long dress. She had delicate features, an outstanding figure, and snow-white skin. Even without makeup, she was more beautiful than any female celebrity he had ever seen...

If he weren't so lucid, he would have thought she was a fairy...

Sheng Jiafu's feelings were the opposite of Lao Hu's.

Great love?

How did she end up here?

He was horrified, his mind filled with thoughts of how there were many graves nearby, and whether this Sheng Ai was... a ghost.

"Third Brother, it's time to go home for dinner." Sheng Ai acted as if she didn't see anyone else, her dark eyes fixed on Sheng Jiafu, and said in a rigid voice, "It's not good to keep everyone waiting."

Sheng Jiafu snapped out of his daze and said with a dark look in his eyes, "You're not Sheng... my sister. Who are you, then?"

What are you doing here?

“I’m Xiao Ai.” Sheng Ai still had no expression. “If Third Brother says I’m not Xiao Ai, I’ll be sad.”

"[Sheng Ai is dead, she absolutely cannot be here]", Sheng Jiafu almost blurted out.

But at the crucial moment, he held back and changed his words to, "Tell me your true identity and purpose, and I'll let you go."

He is the third young master of the Sheng family, and Sheng Ai is dead—this secret must never be known to anyone present.

Sheng Ai seemed not to understand what he meant: "Third Brother, it's past dinner time, you should go home."

After saying that, she lifted her foot, preparing to walk into the warehouse.

Sheng Jiafu didn't bother with any more words and directly ordered: "Grab her, cut off her tongue, break her hands and legs, and then send her to Dianbei, where the brothers can do whatever they want with her."

In places like Dianbei, the competition is extremely fierce.

Many people want to find out his identity, then kill him or report him, so as to take over his territory.

He absolutely could not allow this inexplicable "Sheng Ai" to have the opportunity to reveal his identity.

Old Fox was a seasoned veteran, and he naturally understood Sheng Jiafu's meaning. He immediately revealed an evil smile, rolled up his sleeves, and reached out to grab Sheng Ai's neck...

"ah--"

The piercing screams made everyone's ears ring.

In the dim light, everyone saw that the old fox's outstretched hand was twisted by the beautiful woman and fell limply to his side.

How did that beautiful woman... do it?

Under the horrified gazes of the crowd.

Sheng Ai bumped right into the old fox, then walked gracefully and rhythmically to Sheng Jiafu, extending her hand: "Third Brother, let's go home for dinner."

Sheng Jiafu instinctively took a few steps back and roared, "Grab her, kill her!"

The thugs snapped out of their daze and rushed towards Sheng Ai, the scene resembling a pack of hungry wolves pouncing on a weak lamb waiting to be slaughtered...

Sheng Jiafu revealed a smug smile.

Anyone who tries to ruin his path to wealth will only meet one fate—death!

"Clang!"

In the chaos, some thugs kicked over the lights.

The warehouse was plunged into almost complete darkness.

Sheng Jiafu couldn't see anything clearly, only the sounds of bodies colliding and the screams, cries, and wails of the thugs...

? ? ?

What happened?

A beam of light appeared in the darkness; it was Old Fox turning on his phone's flashlight, barely illuminating the surroundings.

Sheng Jiafu's pupils suddenly dilated, his face filled with horror.

Sheng Ai stood right in front of him, only an arm's length away, while the thugs were all lying on the ground, piled up in a heap, seemingly broken limbs and unable to get up...

"Third Brother, let's go back for dinner."

Sheng Ai grabbed Sheng Jiafu's left hand.

Sheng Jiafu felt a chilling sensation in his left hand, as if it were seeping into his bones, causing him to shiver involuntarily and instinctively try to pull his hand away.

However, Sheng Ai's hand seemed to be permanently attached to his, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't shake it off.

at the same time.

A tremendous force pulled him forward, making him uncontrollably follow Sheng Ai.

An unprecedented fear surged into Sheng Jiafu's heart.

Something's not right with Sheng Ai!

"What are you all standing there for?" Sheng Jiafu roared. "Stop her! Kill her!"

"Whoever can kill her, I'll pay them a million on the spot!"

1 million?

The thugs' eyes lit up. They struggled to their feet, brandishing knives or picking up sticks, and staggered as they lunged at Sheng Ai again.

Old Fox is closest to Sheng Ai.

He put the phone on the ground, pulled a pistol from his waist with his only remaining hand, pointed it at Sheng Ai's head, and grinned maliciously: "You won't listen to reason, so I'll have to send you to the Western Paradise. It's just a pity for such a beautiful face and figure..."

"Watch out!" Fang Tiexin shouted at the top of his lungs, "They have guns..."

"Bang!"

Gunshots rang out.

The bullet pierced Sheng Ai's head.

Fang Tiexin felt his blood freeze, and an endless despair welled up inside him...

Three lives lost!

Three innocent lives, including a minor boy and a teenage girl, were lost silently here...

He let out a deep, mournful cry, trying to lunge forward and fight the thugs, but he fainted due to exhaustion.

The other thugs grinned with excitement.

Such a beautiful girl, gone just like that?

What a pity.

But even if someone dies, they can still keep playing, right...?
