Not long after.
Qu Jiaorou saw a tall, thin middle-aged man being pushed into the room, and she sat up warily.
Allen looked at Qu Jiaorou carefully: "It's her, it's her. I only accepted the mission after paying a high price! I didn't mean to really frame Qu Jian'er. My online army hadn't even started to work before their methods were cut off."
There were no signs of torture on his body, but he was trembling like a sieve.
It looked as if someone had frightened them.
Allen repeatedly explained to the people behind him.
He was simply blinded by greed at the time. After all, Qu Jiaorou's offer was too high—it was his lifetime's salary. It was hard not to be tempted, but fate had other plans.
Allen was aware of the Gray Network's favoritism towards Qu Jian'er, and he thought he wouldn't be discovered with his abilities. Who knew that the Gray Network's leadership would take direct action?
He had clearly cleared away all traces of accepting the mission and quickly dispelled the public opinion it had generated, yet he was still caught.
Seeing Qu Jian'er being fawned over by the Gray Network's leadership, even Allen, who didn't understand much, knew that Qu Jian'er held an extraordinary position.
He felt like dying.
Why did he become so greedy?
Why can't we just focus on making money?
Qu Jiaorou stared blankly as Qu Jian'er entered the room surrounded by a group of strangers.
It was hard for her not to be surprised.
She couldn't possibly mistake Qu Jian'er's face, nor could she possibly mistake the gray net logo.
so.
Qu Jian'er was surrounded by people from the gray net.
Qu Jian'er had previously said that she had no connection with the gray website.
This is something you call unrelated?!
She was the first to disbelieve it.
Qu Jiaorou angrily shouted, "Qu Jian'er! Take your people and get as far away as you can!!!"
She didn't understand that she had already lost.
It was clear that there was no way for him to turn things around.
Why did Qu Jian'er have to provoke her again?
They just wanted to see her embarrassed!
Qu Jian'er wagged her index finger: "Let me correct you, they really aren't my people... Oh, why are you vomiting blood? Do you need me to call a doctor for you?"
A wisp of luck that had jumped out from Qu Jiaorou was swirling around her fingertips. Seeing this, her face turned cold.
Qu Jiaorou indeed inherited the original owner's luck.
However, Qu Jiaorou was not the main plunderer.
Qu Longlong, who was imprisoned in the empire, was the one.
Qu Jian'er taught Qu Jiaorou how to relax: "Don't let your anger and blood rush to your head and kill you on the spot."
I just demonstrated how to relax.
Qu Jiaorou did not breathe a sigh of relief.
The blood from the corner of his mouth actually increased, like a small fountain, quickly soaking his entire collar.
Qu Jian'er stepped back in disgust: "I can only feel at ease knowing that she is not doing well. I'm leaving her in your care."
Gu Xue bowed politely: "Don't worry, Madam."
His fox-like eyes curved into a smile; naturally, he would not disobey the orders given by the mistress of the house.
He has already come up with a hundred ways to make Qu Jiaorou's life miserable, and they are just waiting to be tested.
Then Qu Jiaorou suddenly vomited blood again.
Gu Xue inexplicably thought of the word "backlash," and then examined Qu Jiaorou with the eyes of someone looking at something new.
He was trying to find something different about Qu Jiaorou so that he could use her as an example, have an excuse to go to Black Hawk, and have a reason to study her with others.
This side.
Qu Jian'er hummed a song as she went to find Zuo Chen.
They encountered Odin, who had escaped from prison, on the way.
Odin had a sullen face. He knew that it was wrong for him to "scheme" against his good friend Qu Jian'er, but Qu Jian'er was obviously scheming against them as well.
Look at how people perceive them now.
That is, they wish they could kill them.
This is not the result they wanted!
Odin, unusually quick-witted, pressed on, "Apocalypse, tell me honestly, is everything you're doing truly for humanity's submission to us?"
Qu Jian'er looked around at the world of mirrors.
Odin has learned his lesson and gotten smarter.
They know that to tell a secret, you need to find a secluded place.
Qu Jian'er countered with, "What do you think?"
Odin was troubled: "I don't know, Apocalypse. I don't want to doubt you. You have your reasons for doing this, don't you? Just like how you deceived humanity so they couldn't discover your true identity, wasn't it all part of your plan?"
He put Qu Jian'er on the opposite side of humanity.
But he did it all for their own good.
When he learned that Qu Jian'er was human, he was bewildered, and a message he had ignored came to mind.
Is Qu Jian'er really his companion?
Although the vessel he was in looked exactly like a human, he knew it wasn't.
How was Qu Jian'er able to fool the machine?
Or perhaps Qu Jian'er is actually a human.
He's been deceived all along!
Qu Jian'er quietly watched the person making excuses for her.
I thought about it.
Qu Jian'er finally said, "It's just as you think."
Odin suddenly looked up.
His hands began to tremble.
Qu Jian'er was indeed deceiving him!
Why?
Why aren't you lying anymore?
He shouted out everything that was on his mind.
Qu Jian'er narrowed her eyes: "What are you angry about?"
Odin retorted, "Shouldn't I be angry?"
Qu Jian'er sighed sadly, "I only said it was what you thought, but your first thought was that I had deceived you. It seems that in your heart, I really am not a friend you can trust. You have disappointed me too much."
Odin: "???"
Qu Jian'er looked hurt: "Odin, I am very sad because of your actions and words."
Odin: "..." Shouldn't I be the one who's sad?
Qu Jian'er turned away in disappointment, not looking at the other person: "Go, our cooperation ends here. From now on, I'll go my way, and you go yours."
