After hearing Qin Ran's words, Shi Liming was stunned. He turned his head to look at Qin Ran: "What?"
Qin Ran put her hand down and half-closed her eyes to watch Cheng Mu slowly getting up on the training ground.
No more words.
Shi Liming stood beside her, looking at her profile, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Cheng Mu looked embarrassed, but his injuries were not serious. He just didn't expect to be beaten like this by someone younger than him. He walked out of the martial arts training ground dejected.
Shi Liming looked at him, coughed, and did not ask about Jerry. Instead, he spoke as usual, "Brother Cheng Mu, I want to take Miss Qin to the underground city. Do you want to go?"
Qin Ran and Shi Liming were standing on a high place, and Cheng Mu couldn't see them from that angle.
Hearing that Shi Liming's tone was no different from before, Cheng Mu quietly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that they probably didn't see it.
"My clothes are a little dirty, I'll go back and change first." Cheng Mu said.
Qin Ran was leaning against the wooden stake behind her, looking down at her phone. When she heard this, she didn't even raise her head and said calmly, "Go ahead, hurry up."
...
...
Her attitude is no different from Shi Liming's.
Cheng Mushu let out his last breath: "Okay."
Then quickly go back to your residence to change clothes.
He lived downstairs in the middle castle, in the room next to Cheng Shui.
Shi Liming stood beside Qin Ran. Unlike Cheng Mu, Shi Liming climbed up from the bottom step by step. Although he did not enter the Law Enforcement Hall, he was considered a capable person in the Purchasing Hall.
Although I haven't experienced the gap that Cheng Mu experienced, and cannot personally understand that feeling, I can still understand the pressure that Cheng Mu is under now.
In less than seven minutes, Cheng Mu changed his clothes and rushed over.
"Let's go." Shi Liming took out the car keys from his pocket and led them out the door.
**
Not far away, a group of people were walking towards this side.
The one walking in front was Cheng Shui, followed closely by Cheng Huo, a young blond woman and several hall masters.
Several hall masters spoke enthusiastically to the young blonde woman.
Qin Ran reached out and pulled the hat down on her head.
Both sides saw each other.
Tang Qing saw Cheng Mu and Shi Liming, both of whom looked very familiar to her, especially Cheng Mu, whom she had just seen in the conference room and she still had some impression of him.
It shouldn't be a very important person, so she looked away.
As for Qin Ran...she simply ignored her.
She imagined walking over, but found that everyone around her had stopped.
Zou Tangzhu called out very politely and respectfully, "Miss Qin.
Even Cheng Shui stopped and bowed to Qin Ran, then asked carefully, "Miss Qin wants to go out and play?"
Hearing Cheng Shui mention the word "play", Zou Tangzhu couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
"Yeah." Qin Ran responded lazily.
"Shi Liming, follow Miss Qin carefully..." Cheng Shui turned to Shi Liming again, asked him where he was going, and then gave him detailed instructions.
Cheng Huo was in the group of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and had heard about Miss Qin from Cheng Mu a long time ago.
"Miss Qin." He also called out after Cheng Shui, then raised his head and looked at Qin Ran curiously.
Qin Ran pulled up the hood of her down jacket, so her face was not very clear. Only her delicate jaw could be seen, and her exposed skin was very white.
Especially when reflected against black, it looks even whiter.
Some people are born with good-looking bones, so even if you can't see their faces clearly, it doesn't hinder others from judging them.
"This is Cheng Huo." Cheng Shui just remembered Cheng Huo and immediately turned sideways to introduce him to Qin Ran. "I was planning to bring him to visit you tonight."
Facing Qin Ran, Cheng Huo coughed and straightened his attitude.
Introduced myself to Qin Ran.
Cheng Huo's fame is not only in M Continent Manor, but even in the hacker world, his name is well-known.
This is why Tang Qing is willing to follow Cheng Huo.
She actually didn't know which force in Continent M Cheng Huo was loyal to, but it was obviously not easy to regain Cheng Huo's power. When she entered the manor gate and saw the Lycoris radiata pattern on the gate, Tang Qing had already guessed Cheng Huo's power.
As she expected, Cheng Huo had a very high status among this group of people.
Except for Cheng Shui, everyone else respects Cheng Huo very much.
Apart from their mysterious boss, this was the first time Tang Qing saw Cheng Shui and Cheng Huo being so respectful to anyone else, especially a woman who didn't seem to have any aggressive power.
Tang Qing's originally indifferent gaze suddenly froze, and he couldn't help but look at Qin Ran a little longer, but he really couldn't see anything.
Cheng Shui said a few words to Qin Ran and the others, and then he did not disturb Qin Ran's schedule anymore. He stood there and watched Qin Ran, Cheng Mu and the others leave.
"Why does Cheng Mu look like his wife has died?" Cheng Huo held the bag in one hand and put the other hand in his pocket, looking at Cheng Mu's back with a raised eyebrow.
Cheng Shui looked at Cheng Huo and said in a serious voice, "...Cheng Huo, don't talk nonsense."
Cheng Huo said "Oh" and looked away. He wanted to ask about Miss Qin, but there were many people around him, so he held back for the time being.
After Qin Ran and the others disappeared, Cheng Shui continued to take Tang Qing and the others around the manor.
**
The black car that Qin Ran was traveling in had been driven to the gate by the manor housekeeper, and Shi Liming and the others could see it as soon as they went out.
Shi Liming was still driving, and Cheng Mu was sitting in the passenger seat.
He fastened his seat belt, then tilted his head to look in the direction he came from. "Who is that blonde woman? Do you know her?"
Cheng Mu looked at Shi Liming with a questioning look.
After entering the manor, the blows Cheng Mu suffered became more and more severe, especially today, when a girl that Cheng Huo brought back casually was so powerful that Cheng Shui even entertained her personally.
Cheng Mu already felt that any random cleaning servant in the manor was better than him.
"I know. Someone in the small group of the purchasing hall said," Shi Liming turned the car key and slowly drove the car into the avenue, "That's Tang Qing, Mr. Cheng Huo's junior sister, she's a hacker."
Qin Ran was sitting in the back, playing with her phone out of boredom. When she heard the word “hacker,” she raised her eyes and asked with interest, “Hacker?”
Hearing Qin Ran's question, Shi Liming quickly stopped being lazy and sat up straight, saying, "I heard that he is a hacker, the newest member of the Hacker Alliance. His most recent feat was to break into the Triangle Building and escape unscathed. Mr. Cheng Huo said that he is only slightly inferior to him and is very strong. He is a new member that Mr. Cheng Huo is preparing for the Intelligence Hall."
There was a hint of awe in his tone.
After all... no one would not be in awe of a powerful hacker...
Cheng Mu listened with awe. The Hacker Alliance sounded like it was not a simple organization.
But he glanced at the rearview mirror and began to wonder, who is better, Qin Ran or her?
Was it really Qin Ran who was the third party that interfered with the apron base system the night before?
In the rearview mirror, Qin Ran seemed to be pressing a mobile phone. The appearance of the mobile phone seemed different from ordinary mobile phones. Cheng Mu seemed to see fluorescence.
Before she could take a closer look, Qin Ran raised her head.
Cheng Mu was so frightened that he turned his head back immediately.
In the back seat, Qin Ran withdrew her gaze, casually reached out, turned over her phone, and opened the microcomputer.
Soon, a sweet female voice came from the speaker -
[Go straight at the traffic light about 100 meters ahead. 】
Shi Liming was driving well when he suddenly heard a system notification sound. He was startled. The traffic light was red. He drove forward for a while, then stopped to wait for the traffic light. He picked up the phone on the table and tapped it. "What's going on? I didn't turn on the navigation?"
Shi Liming had been in Continent M for such a long time. Although the underground city was a den of money, Shi Liming had been there before. It was not very far away and he knew it, so there was no need for navigation.
At this moment, the navigation system rang by itself, and he was startled.
"Let's follow the navigation." After hearing Qin Ran in the back seat not saying anything, Cheng Mu looked at Shi Liming.
Miss Qin...Cheng Mu could totally understand why she did this all of a sudden. Really.
“Brother Cheng Mu, you scared me to death.” Shi Liming didn’t know that Qin Ran was a hacker. Hearing Cheng Mu say that, he thought it was Cheng Mu’s doing.
Cheng Mu glanced at him and said nothing.
**
The car went further and further off the track, and finally stopped at a dark street corner.
Shi Liming also looks familiar here.
Many people in the manor sought breakthroughs and had ordinary battles here.
However, Shi Liming couldn't adapt to the atmosphere here and didn't come here often.
“Miss Qin… here?” He parked the car and sat in the passenger seat without getting out. He looked at Qin Ran with some confusion.
Qin Ran's expression did not change much. It could even be said that she was indifferent. Her eyes were silent and desolate. "Come down."
She opened the door and got out of the car first.
From time to time, people are seen wandering around the black streets carrying weapons.
Next door is a very messy slum.
Qin Ran put on her down jacket while looking towards the entrance.
When the people on the black street saw a newcomer coming, they all looked over here. A strong man was smoking a cigarette and squinting at Qin Ran. When his eyes met the pattern on her sleeves, even the cigarette in his hand trembled.
Then he quickly looked away.
"Come with me." Qin Ran walked in one direction first.
There is only one place here, and that is the Colosseum.
Shi Liming originally wanted to lead the way, but unexpectedly Qin Ran just walked away and did not take the wrong road.
“Xiao Shi, where are we going?” Cheng Mu followed behind Qin Ran and asked Shi Liming in a low voice.
Shi Liming did not answer because he had already seen the gate of the arena.
The logo of two crossed black skulls is very scary, giving people an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Qin Ran took out a black card from her pocket and handed it to Shi Liming. "Go get a VIP card."
In the Colosseum, besides the fighters, the rest are spectators who come to bet and gamble to watch the excitement. VIP cards, with a minimum price of 10 million, have special sky stands and boxes, as well as many special privileges. Rich people who go there to seek excitement can also work as door openers at the Colosseum.
When the three people entered, it was like entering a two-dimensional world. There was a lot of noise inside, with cheers, curses, and shouts of encouragement coming from time to time.
What is being fought here is underground boxing. Even in an ordinary ring, the people in it will do anything to win.
Some people fight for their lives only when they are forced into desperate situations...
If you win, you'll be a hero to the nation; if you lose, you'll lose everything or even risk your life.
Although Cheng Mu had undergone special training, that training was hard and rigorous, but it challenged the limits of the human body and was not bloody.
Even though he had been on several missions with Captain Hao and had experienced countless life and death situations, he had never experienced such a depressing and dark scene.
His face turned a little pale.
Unable to accept it, "Xiao Shi, let's take Miss Qin away..."
He turned his head to see the condition of Qin Ran and Shi Liming. Shi Liming just frowned slightly, but there was nothing unusual.
As for Qin Ran...
Cheng Mu's expression changed. Qin Ran's expression was much calmer than he had imagined.
“Let’s finish this show before we leave. Do you have any cigarettes?” Qin Ran turned her head and glanced at Cheng Mu.
Cheng Mu hesitated and took out a pack of cigarettes. He was thinking whether Cheng Juan would beat him to death if he gave it to Qin Ran. Qin Ran raised her hand and took out a cigarette.
She looked down, and didn't continue smoking or lighting the cigarette. She spoke casually, looking sideways at Cheng Mu, and gave him an ambiguous smile: "Cheng Mu, if you want to become a strong man, the price is high."
The somewhat cynical look finally revealed a feeling that Cheng Mu was familiar with.
Cheng Mu cried out "Ah" and came back to his senses.
Qin Ran patted his shoulder, smiled softly, half-closed her eyes, and said lazily: "Cheng Shui and the others are all people walking on the edge of hell. Those who are stronger than you are not born stronger than you. You are not weak in talent. I ask you to fight in an ordinary arena. You may not die, but you may be disabled. You have to go all out in every game, and you have to be nervous in every game. Do you dare?"
She looked at Cheng Mu.
Shi Liming stood between the two of them, not daring to speak at all.
Cheng Mu was shocked. If Qin Ran hadn't experienced what happened in the past few days, would he dare to ask him? He might really not dare.
But now, Cheng Mu clenched his fists, looked at Qin Ran, and said in a rough voice: "Miss Qin, I dare!"
A pair of eyes that show no fear of life or death.
Qin Ran stroked her chin and glanced at him, raising her eyebrows in surprise.
“I understand.” Qin Ran pulled up the hood of her down jacket as a normal fight on the ring was over. She turned around and walked out. “Let’s go back.”
Cheng Mu was stunned and chased after her, "Miss Qin, aren't we going to have a fight?"
Shi Liming also followed. He looked at Qin Ran and thought that Qin Ran wanted Cheng Mu to fight in a normal match.
“Xiao Shi, does your manor have a small indoor training ground?” Qin Ran walked out while taking out her phone and flipping through Gu Xichi’s profile picture.
[Is there any medicine?] We need those that can quickly restore cells and take a beating... 】
She made a long list.
Gu Xichi always responded to her messages quickly——
【have. 】
Qin Ran directly sent the address of the manor.
After sending the address, she suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Ah... do you still remember the life-and-death friendship between Sister Ran and Gu Xichi...
good evening……
