Chapter 299: Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back
“I actually don’t know who the other person is.”
"We connected on the dark web."
"He gave me a down payment."
"I take money from people and help them get rid of disasters."
"Oh? Then your mission is..." Tu Ran asked this question even though he knew the answer.
"Kill old man Sun."
"Oh, then your mission failed." Tu Ran's face was calm.
"Don't talk nonsense, keep your word. I've already said it, give me the antidote."
At this moment, the old cell phone suddenly rang.
The woman was obviously panicking, but Tu Ran reacted quickly and stuffed the rag from the utility room into the woman's mouth.
Without being able to make any sound, she answered the phone.
There was a man's voice on the other end of the phone, and it was a young man.
Man: Did you succeed?
Tu Ran: I’m afraid I’ll disappoint you. She failed.
The other party was obviously stunned as well. This was something they had never expected.
Man: Who are you?
Tu Ran: What do you think?
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone...
Tu Ran: I want to say that we really don't know about that matter, and you probably won't believe it, right? They're just going to kill them all. Fine, if that's the case, then we'll just have to wait and see.
The man on the other end of the phone laughed softly.
Man: Girl, you are interesting.
Tu Ran: Stop pretending to be so stubborn. I believe we will meet soon.
Tu Ran: I will make you regret provoking me.
Man: Really? Well, I'll wait for you to come find me and see how capable you are.
Beep beep beep——
After the phone call ended, Tu Ran took out the cloth stuffed in the woman's mouth.
"You're dead. You can't beat them." The woman looked at Tu Ran.
"How will you know if you don't try?"
"You said you were doing dark web transactions, right?"
"Come on, log in to your account. I want to see the other party's IP."
"Why are you seeking death? Maybe the other party will let you go."
"Why bother provoking them?" The woman didn't understand Tu Ran's aggressiveness.
“Once a play begins, there is no turning back.”
"Our ancestors have a saying that goes, 'Thirds are better than threes.' I don't care who they are, but they've already attacked someone I value three times. Once the arrow is shot, there's no turning back. Let's wait and see."
Judging from Tu Ran's determination, it is impossible to detoxify her without getting her account and IP.
The woman couldn't bear it anymore and finally told the truth.
Tu Ran looked at the long and familiar string and memorized it silently.
"IP addresses can be tampered with. They are more cautious than you think."
"Thank you for the reminder. Your mission has ended."
"The antidote is here." Tu Ran took out a small white porcelain bottle and stuffed it into the woman's pocket.
"The effect of the cartilage powder will be eliminated after 30 minutes."
"I'll take you to the hotel to rest. After 30 minutes, the effect of the cartilage powder will wear off, and you can take the antidote yourself."
"You're fucking kidding me, so won't I have to suffer for another 30 minutes?" The woman glared at Tu Ran angrily.
"No, you won't feel anything next because you will... fall into a deep sleep."
After saying that, he stabbed the woman's neck with a knife.
The woman's eyes went dark and she fainted.
Tu Ran personally took her to a nearby hotel to rest.
She believed that this woman would not be stupid enough to come back for revenge.
If the mission fails, who knows how the employer will kill you to silence you?
She might leave Xiangcheng as quickly as possible.
After finishing all this, Tu Ran went to meet up with Mu Wanjun.
On the other side, Xie Nancheng couldn't find Tu Ran and was extremely upset.
Feng Yao called to ask me to drink, but I wasn't in the mood.
Instead, he ran back to the old house, wanting to use Xie Jiatong's mouth to leave a message to Tu Ran.
Xie Jiatong's voice came slowly -
It was sent via Xie Nancheng’s WeChat.
"Sister-in-law, where are you? When will you come back?"
"I missed you so much."
"Grandma said I still have a slight fever. I don't know if I should take medicine today?"
"Sister-in-law, can you please come back soon?"
"Tongtong still wants to hear your story."
"Wow, I miss my sister-in-law. I'll be waiting for you at the old house."
After saying a few things, Xie Jiatong looked at Xie Nancheng with an innocent face.
"Brother Nancheng, is this really okay?"
"It should be fine."
"Then does this count as cheating my sister-in-law? After all, I'm no longer hot. The medicine my sister-in-law gave me is very effective. I felt much better after taking it yesterday."
"That doesn't count. It's just a white lie at best." The boss was deceiving himself.
"Brother Nancheng, did you have a fight?"
"Don't ask so many questions, kid." The boss didn't want to say more.
"Don't quarrel with your sister-in-law. My parents used to have a good relationship, but then they started quarreling constantly. They've quarreled so many times that it seems like both of them have changed. Tongtong doesn't like that. Please don't break up, okay?"
"Okay, your sister-in-law and I won't quarrel." Xie Nancheng touched Xie Jiatong's head with some heartache.
"Brother Nancheng, do you know where my mother is now?"
"She's still in the hospital."
"Then when can I go see her?" Xie Jiatong's face was full of anticipation. She didn't know that her mother was seriously injured this time and might not wake up.
"Your father will take you there once she's more stable."
"I don't want to go with Dad. He's a bad guy now. He's with Aunt Jin Yu, who doesn't like me either. Dad asks her to pick me up from school, and she's very enthusiastic towards me in front of Dad. But when we're alone, she becomes very cold. I really don't like her at all."
"Is that so?" Xie Nancheng was stunned. He didn't expect this.
Unexpectedly, Jin Yu is a two-faced person and has no patience with children.
"My sister-in-law wouldn't be like that."
"Whether you and grandma are here or not, sister-in-law is very patient."
"My sister-in-law has a gentle look in her eyes and a nice voice."
"That's enough, she doesn't need your praise. Go find Sister Qiu to give you a bath and rest."
After taking advantage of the little girl, the boss started to drive everyone away.
The old lady noticed that her grandson looked a little strange when he came back, so she went downstairs to check.
"Where's your wife?"
"She's still busy."
"Is she still busy, or did you have a fight?"
"No way?"
"You kid, do you think you can fool me?" The old lady said with a dark face.
"Grandma, it's really not as serious as you think. After Tu Ran married in, our Xie family treated her well. We provided her with good food and drink, and she even acted like a spoiled child. We got her into it."
"You're still being stubborn. Why don't you call someone to get it back?" The old lady went up and slapped him.
The slap landed on Xie Nancheng's back, and it looked like a bullet.
"Nancheng, putting aside the matter of your wife, your second aunt this time..."
"Don't mention Xie Huailan to me. You should ask her who she's colluding with behind my back."
"Oh? Could it be that she has colluded with outsiders?" The old lady heard that her grandson's words had hidden meaning.
