Chapter 110 The Cicada Awaits
The doctor watched helplessly as he slowly died, screaming in agony.
In a tall building not far away, Guan Qing couldn't help but ask Qiu Jing, who was standing to the side.
"Sister Jing, are we really okay with this? It looks like he's really going to die."
"Don't worry about it. We're not police officers; we don't have the mission to save lives."
Besides, is that doctor a good person?
Guan Qing shook her head.
The doctor appeared respectable, outwardly a family doctor.
Using his position as a doctor, he went out to provide free medical consultations.
Participate in various charitable foundations.
They were actually selecting piglets in private.
They called those people piglets, piglets that could be dismembered and eaten at any time.
Some were pre-booked, while others were found with great difficulty for other people.
Each of their organs has a clearly marked price.
It can be used by anyone at any time. Squeeze out its last bit of value, and then disappear completely from the world.
This doctor isn't a doctor; he's an executioner.
His ultimate fate—being silenced and sold—was his retribution.
"Keep a close watch on them, be careful, and don't get spotted."
"Okay, Sister Jing, we'll be careful."
"Alright, I'll go back and report."
After giving her instructions, Qiu Jing turned and left to report on the progress.
This is a long-term strategy, Zhou Ran instructed, there's no need to rush.
Zhou Ran was woken up by the alarm clock and got out of bed.
After washing up, I went downstairs to eat.
"Good morning!"
"Good morning."
Zhou Ran greeted the housekeeper.
He ate breakfast alone again.
"They haven't come back?"
"Yeah, everyone's still busy!"
"good."
After finishing breakfast, Zhou Ran decided not to go to school and treated it as her wedding leave.
He stayed in bed all day until Qiu Jing came, at which point he finally mustered the energy to get things done.
Qiu Jing recounted their experience of following them.
"These people are truly depraved, doing everything they can to take people away smoothly."
They actually caused a car accident; three out of the four family members died, and only the pregnant woman survived.
The doctor was taken to a factory in the suburbs, dissected, and now he's probably just minced meat.
“We’re law-abiding citizens, so why would we leak information to the police?”
Qiu Jing hesitated for a moment, "Won't this alert them?"
"An animal only knows to go home when there is some noise."
That little brat is currently enjoying the pleasure of killing, so happy he's forgotten all about home.
He wouldn't mind getting involved, putting some pressure on him, and making him go home and complain to his mother.
"Okay, I'll get on it right now!"
Qiu Jing nodded in agreement, and Zhou Ran inquired.
"What happened to that white guy we arrested last time? Did he confess anything?"
"No, that kid's stubborn and won't say anything!"
Qiu Jing tried everything, but this kid was really stubborn and didn't say a word.
"Don't get your hands dirty. If you can't get anything out of them, break their legs and lock them up. They'll be useful later."
"good."
Zhou Ran then gave Qiu Jing a few more instructions, and then sighed.
"We still don't have enough manpower."
"Do you need me to hire a few more people?"
"No need. Too many people would only lead to leaks and trouble. I've been doing illegal and disorderly things lately, and it wouldn't be good if too many people knew about it."
Qiu Jing sighed helplessly. Who said they were law-abiding citizens?
"Alright, you can go now. Don't come here too often lately. I'm going back to sleep."
"good."
Qiu Jing left immediately. She noticed someone watching her before she entered the room, and judging from their behavior, they were mostly police officers, not bad people.
But the police are the real problem; if it's a bad guy, they'll just arrest him and beat him to death.
The police are good people; you can't hit them, you can't yell at them, you can only hide from them.
No wonder Young Master Zhou prefers to stay at home and not move.
Xia Chenggan rubbed his forehead; he hadn't slept all night, and his eyes were bloodshot.
"Brother, go back and rest! Leave the rest to us!"
Seeing Xia Chenggan's exhausted appearance, Xia Chengjie couldn't help but offer some words of comfort.
"Okay, brother, you should go back. You're still not feeling well, you can't stay up any longer."
The other brothers also joined in the persuasion.
Xia Chenggan rubbed his temples, nodded, and left.
The major tumors have been removed; all that remains is to remove the necrotic tissue and promote tissue regeneration.
The Xia family, this powerful family, won't fall anytime soon.
After going through this ordeal, things might be revitalized.
When Xia Chenggan returned home, he heard that Zhou Ran was sleeping.
It's amazing how different people can have such different fates.
He was exhausted, and the people who were working with him were fast asleep.
How can this make anyone feel good?
Xia Chenggan went upstairs to the room and saw Zhou Ran sleeping soundly with her pillow in her arms.
Xia Chenggan reached out to poke the person awake, but stopped just before his finger touched them.
"Ugh, what a troublesome little devil!"
"No, I'm a big, troublesome problem."
Zhou Ran opened her eyes and looked at Xia Chenggan warily.
"What are you doing in my room? Go to your own room."
“You forgot, I’ve been staying here recently.”
"Nonsense, how can they be the same?"
"Zhou Ran let you stay here so she could take advantage of you, and now she's shamelessly coming over to try and take advantage of me."
Seeing his resolute refusal, Xia Chenggan laughed even more heartily.
"Keep this disdain going, or I'll get anxious."
Zhou Ran looked disgusted. "Are you mentally ill, or do you have some kind of weird fetish? Let me tell you I'm not! Don't corrupt me!"
Xia Chenggan didn't say anything, but hugged the person through the blanket.
"That scared me to death."
Zhou Ran struggled for a moment but couldn't break free, so she decided to give up, thinking that a grown man shouldn't hold a grudge against a petty person.
Who can blame him for being so charming? Everyone who meets him likes him.
"Oh, my damn charm, I told you not to fall in love with me."
"It's too late, what if I've already fallen in love?"
"Unfortunately, I don't love you. Unrequited love will never work. Don't try to force me into this domineering CEO type. I'm a Godzilla that bites, not some delicate little thing you can afford to keep."
Xia Cheng's emotions were completely disrupted. "Can you please stop ruining the atmosphere like this?"
"Tsk tsk, good medicine tastes bitter, and honest advice is hard to hear, but you'll get used to it."
"Um."
Xia Chenggan continued to hold the person.
He was uneasy.
How terrified he must have felt when he discovered that Zhou Ran had turned back into the Zhou Ran he knew before and was pretending to be the Zhou Ran he was now.
"You noticed it from the very beginning?"
"Hmm, the way you looked at me when you came out was strange."
Why did Zhou Ran look at me with such intense gaze? He seemed to be looking at me more like an object to be admired.
Zhou Ran made no attempt to hide her appreciation for the object, admiring it as if it were a favorite antique vase.
Seeing that look in his eyes, one can't help but laugh or cry.
I don't know whether to be glad that I'm liked, or to cry because I'm not even human in his eyes.
"Have you hugged me enough? Let go of me, it's so hot."
Zhou Ran struggled a couple of times, but the person next to her remained motionless and silent.
Zhou Ran managed to free one hand and nudged Xia Chenggan, only to find that he was truly fast asleep.
"Hmph, is it a pig? It's been sleeping for so many days, and it's still sleeping."
Zhou Ran freed herself from under the covers.
Looking at the sky outside, it was time for dinner.
He went downstairs and instructed the housekeeper to carry the person back to Xia Chenggan's room and to clean his own room as well.
Under the housekeeper's strange gaze, Zhou Ran finished her dinner and went for a walk.
Walking along the main road in the residential area, Zhou Ran idly swung her arms.
He muttered to himself, "Oh dear, I should get a dog. That way, I'll have something to do when I walk it!"
It was as if God heard him talking to himself.
A golden retriever, its tongue lolling out, charged toward him.
"Holy crap, does it have to be this accurate? Don't come any closer!"
Zhou Ran nimbly dodged when the dog lunged at him.
He ran ahead, and the dog chased after him.
"Don't chase me! Whose dog are you? You're going to kill me!!"
Zhou Ran ran quickly, passing by a villa whose door was not closed.
A sudden glance caused him to stop abruptly.
The golden retriever that was chasing him didn't expect that the person playing with it would suddenly stop.
He couldn't stop in time and crashed into Zhou Ran.
Zhou Ran was knocked over and fell to the ground.
"Ouch, you damn dog, I'll kill you and eat your meat."
Zhou Ran rubbed the sore spot from the fall and stood up, limping back to the villa he had just been standing in.
He carefully pushed open the half-open door.
Then they saw a person lying on the ground, with blood flowing from his waist and abdomen.
"My God!"
Zhou Ran pretended to be surprised, but instead of going in, she shouted outside.
"Help! Someone's injured! Help!"
His bodyguards came running from a distance.
They were shocked when they saw the person lying on the ground, and then quickly dealt with the situation.
One person shielded Zhou Ran, preventing him from going in, while another carefully went in to check on the injured.
When the bodyguard was about to touch the injured person.
Suddenly, a man rushed out from the side, stabbing at the bodyguard with a knife.
The bodyguard was prepared and quickly dodged, simultaneously disarming the knife.
It can also give the attacker a kick.
The attacker seemed to be in a bloodthirsty rage; after being kicked away, he quickly got up from the ground.
They attacked the bodyguards again.
The bodyguard didn't hold back; he kicked with all his might.
Zhou Ran heard a cracking sound; that kick must have broken at least one of his ribs.
Zhou Ran clicked her tongue in amazement. How could this person be so stubborn? He knows how to fight desperately, but he doesn't know how to run away!
Zhou Ran asked his bodyguards to go and help.
The two men tied the man up before checking on the injured man.
"He was badly injured."
The bodyguard called an ambulance and performed basic first aid using simple chest compressions.
Zhou Ran peeked inside but didn't see anyone.
The golden retriever followed him around, constantly rubbing its big head against him.
"Is this your home?"
Zhou Ran saw the golden retriever and the open door.
He probably wanted to take his dog out for a walk, but he ran into the thugs as soon as he opened the door.
The dog ran away without being led.
Police cars and ambulances arrived quickly.
The injured were put into an ambulance and taken to the hospital for emergency treatment.
Zhou Ran, as the first eyewitness, stayed behind to cooperate with the police investigation.
Zhou Ran explained in detail how she discovered it, as if she knew exactly what was going on.
The police left their contact information, and after confirming that Zhou Ran was alright, they let him go.
They began investigating the site.
Zhou Ran swung her arms and walked back. "Honestly, I knew I shouldn't have come out. I never expected to run into something like this."
This time, the suspicion is even stronger. When will they be able to shake off the police behind them?
He turned back, having lost interest in strolling.
"Woof woof!"
Zhou Ran turned around, and the golden retriever was following behind him.
"What are you doing following me? Go home or go with the police!"
The golden retriever grabbed his trouser leg and dragged him in one direction.
"Hey, what are you doing? If you say another word, I'll report you for kidnapping!" Author's Note: Thanks to my mentor 9492239 for their support! For more exciting content, please leave a message for this book on Liancheng Reading.
