Chapter 5224 The Cruel Truth
"You figured it out?"
"Not really. I just thought she shouldn't look like this, but I looked carefully many times and didn't see any problem."
"It's normal that you didn't notice it, because no one would think about it in that way at all."
"What?"
"It's not appropriate to talk over the phone. I'll come find you tomorrow morning and tell you."
"Okay, but you have to come earlier tomorrow because I have to meet Lu Yiyi tomorrow morning."
"Alone?"
"Well, she took a fancy to the sapphire in my hand and wanted to buy it."
"That shouldn't be dangerous, but don't forget to be on guard. The most unpredictable thing in the world is the human heart, let alone the Lu family."
"I see."
"I have something else to do in a moment, so I'll hang up first."
"good."
At around seven o'clock in the evening, when Lu Xiaoxiao was about to go to bed, she heard the doorbell ring. She immediately took out a knife from the space and put it in her sleeve, then went to the door to open it.
When she opened the door a crack and looked out, she saw Foreman Xie standing at the door holding a few oil paper bags, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Then she opened the door completely and asked Foreman Xie, "Second Master, why are you here?"
"I just happened to be passing by here, so I came up to take a look and bring you some midnight snack."
"What's a midnight snack?"
"Big hairy crab, don't you like eating this? Even though it's cold, it doesn't affect your eating."
"Thank you, Second Master. Please come in and sit down."
When Foreman Xie heard what Lu Xiaoxiao said, he walked into the house. He then put the hairy crab in his hand on the table, sat on the sofa and said to Lu Xiaoxiao, "I'll tell you what I didn't finish saying this morning. I won't come over tomorrow morning."
"Okay, go ahead."
"The reason why you can't tell what's wrong with Lu Yiyi's face is because she's wearing a human skin mask."
"A real human skin mask?"
"Well, there is such an industrial chain in a place that many people don't know about. We have attacked it many times but failed to break it. One of my tasks this time is to destroy that industrial chain."
After hearing what Foreman Xie said, Lu Xiaoxiao felt a chill down her spine, because she had read an ancient book before that introduced human skin masks, saying that the materials for making human skin masks must be taken from living people. What a cruel method this is.
Thinking of this, her feelings towards Lu Yiyi plummeted to the bottom, and she felt that she was no different from the devil.
If she didn't want to help Foreman Xie and the others complete the mission, she wouldn't want to see Lu Yiyi tomorrow morning, and she didn't want to sell the sapphire in her hand to her, because she disliked her money being dirty.
"Are you scared?" Foreman Xie asked Lu Xiaoxiao when he saw that Lu Xiaoxiao was lost in her own thoughts after hearing what he said.
"No, I just wonder why some people have such evil hearts and don't even have any conscience as a human being."
"What's so strange about this? There are all kinds of birds in the forest. What's more, some people are bad from the root. How can you expect them to become good people when they grow up?"
“That’s right.”
"It's getting late. Go to bed early and call me when you come back tomorrow."
After hearing what Foreman Xie said, Lu Xiaoxiao nodded. Then after Foreman Xie left, she took the crabs to the kitchen of the space to heat them up, and then sat in the living room of the space to watch a movie while eating the crabs.
She didn't leave the space to sleep until she had finished eating all the crabs that Foreman Xie brought.
