Chapter 168 The three of us were originally friends
Shi Ming was brought into the room. After briefly asking about the situation, the hypnotist pushed the door open and went in.
Gu Jiujing was guarding outside the door.
Ning Yan sat on the sofa not far away, supporting his head with one hand and his head slightly tilted.
Looking at the snow-white floor that had been wiped clean, he was incredibly quiet, without any of the collapse he should have felt from being imprisoned a second time.
“Give me a computer.”
When Yu Chengbai walked to his side, Ning Yan suddenly spoke. He didn't move his body at all, just raised his eyes to look at him, and quickly repeated it a second time: "Give me a computer."
The computer was delivered quickly.
Ning Yan skillfully logged into the dark web and flipped through various posts on the forum. Yu Chengbai's hand had definitely reached the dark web.
He had been wandering around Continent M for several days with such obvious and symbolic pink hair, but there was not a single post mentioning him. It seemed as if the name Ning Yan had really died since the moment he faked his death years ago.
And what's strange is that although he has seen several former allies, employers and "lovers" one after another, no one still mentions his name on the dark web.
His presence on the dark web is zero.
Ning Yan found the killer ranking list again and scrolled forward from the 100th place. The further he went, the more familiar the names became.
The first place position has not changed, it is still K.
Can't tell if it's a coincidence or intentional.
There are 26 letters, and why did you choose K?
Lin Fang just happened to come over and saw what he was reading. He was a little confused: "What do the numbers at the end mean?"
"The total number of heads and the current value."
"Shouldn't assassins keep a low profile? Why are they still accumulating heads? Aren't they afraid of being sought after?"
"You underestimate their self-esteem and their competitive spirit," Ning said in a startling tone. "It's just like men hiding in the bathroom comparing size. Didn't you see the discussion forum below the rankings? The guy at number one has so many fans and admirers, it's like being a celebrity."
“…”
"And the higher your ranking, the higher your worth, and the more expensive the orders you receive."
"How much?"
"It's not expensive for you. It's just the price you spend on a car, Mr. Lin." Ning Yan couldn't help but sigh in his heart after he finished speaking. It turns out that cheap labor is everywhere, and being a capitalist can make money.
"So if I pay him, he'll help me kill whoever I want?"
"Yes."
"What if I ask him to protect someone for me? Will it be the same price?"
"..." Ning Yan was in a trance and felt as if he had suddenly jumped to the Mary Sue channel.
He really wanted to say that Ruan Tang was safe in the country and there was no need for him to hire the most expensive assassin in Continent M to protect him.
It's just a waste of money, okay?
Lin Fang looked at him and suddenly asked, "You left us a suicide note before. Were you being hunted by this guy called K?"
Ning Yan was stunned for a moment, then turned around to look at him curiously: "Who told you that?"
"Guess."
"You guessed right then."
"If I pay him three times the price and ask him to kill the man who ordered you to be hunted down, will that work?"
Ning Yan looked at him in shock. Seeing that he looked serious and didn't mean to joke, he was stunned for a long time before slowly saying, "You might as well give me the money. I'm not as good as him..."
Lin Fang interrupted him: "If you are not worse than him, why did you leave a suicide note for the three of us?"
"...Actually, every time we go on a mission, we write a suicide note."
"You've never—"
"I've always written for myself before, never for others. This time, I just want to try what it feels like."
“…”
Ning Yan patted his shoulder and couldn't help laughing. He leaned over, stared at his face, and jokingly said, "I thought you were going to give Ruan Tang the whole thing. I was thinking that the boss must be rich, letting a killer change his career to become a high-priced bodyguard, and protecting someone who lives in such a safe place in the country. If I were that killer, I would probably think this was some kind of touching love."
Lin Fang raised his hand towards his face and pressed his smiling face back.
Ning Yan refused to move. She shook her head, shook his hand off, and continued to bend over to look at him, smiling brightly as she said, "Who said that before? When he finds a wife in the future, she must find someone who is gentle, family-oriented, and soft-spoken. She definitely doesn't want someone like me, the Third Young Master, or Shi Ming, who have bad tempers, are difficult to please, and are always fighting and killing."
Lin Fang looked at him coldly without saying a word.
If you tease Yu Li, he will laugh out loud, and then tease you back even harder;
Ning Yan rarely teased Shi Ming before, but later found that he was cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and would explode if prodded. So he pretended to be stupid and teased him. Shi Ming thought he was stupid and didn't bother with him, so he silently got angry.
Lin Fang was the one who was teased the least. After all, he was too old and took care of Ning Yan's company and his wallet like a parent. Ning Yan didn't feel comfortable being rude to him.
But Yu Li is not here now. Shi Ming is receiving treatment in the room. Yu Chengbai is sitting opposite him and he doesn't want to pay attention to him.
When I had nothing to do, I found it very interesting to tease Lin Fang.
"Speak up, why did you dive in so suddenly? You don't want to find a gentle and family-oriented girl anymore? Why are you sticking to our Ruan Tang?"
"I don't like your type in the first place. I also like someone who is gentle and family-oriented, not someone who is so strong that he can kick down his door."
"How on earth did you manage to get him? Didn't he hit you?"
Lin Fang frowned at him, and after he finished speaking, he said calmly, "Ning Yan, I'm not Shi Ming, and I'm not shy. I don't feel embarrassed if you ask me these questions. How did you get her? It's simple. He was greedy for my body, and he thought I looked very good naked."
"Yes, I don't meet his standards for a partner, but I do meet his aesthetic standards in bed."
"Is there anything else you want to ask? I can tell you everything."
“…”
Damn, this guy is so shameless.
Lin Fang looked at the shock and curse words in his eyes, pretending not to see them, and continued, "Okay, you stop asking, it's my turn to ask. Why did you have to go back to Continent M? Why did you leave us a suicide note? Don't say you wrote it for fun, or that you're so pitiful and you've never written to anyone before, so you wanted to experience the feeling of being cared for."
"I don't believe it. You're not that hypocritical."
"I'm not that hypocritical. I won't stop asking just because you feel sorry for me. Tell me, what are you hiding from us?"
Ning Yan's eyes had never been so wide before.
Hold?
I've been ignoring you all these years, haven't I?
You compare Li and Shi Ming to be much harder to fool!
You are so fucking cold-blooded!
I even said that I didn't know who I wrote my suicide note to, and you still asked me. Aren't you so unsympathetic?
Shouldn't I just keep silent and skip this topic?
You still ask!
Ning Yan was stunned for a long time, and suddenly turned his head to Yu Chengbai.
Yu Chengbai had been sitting opposite them, looking at them with gentle eyes, so quiet that there was not even a trace of his presence.
It was not until Ning Yan took the initiative to look at him that she was stunned for a moment and smiled gently at him.
...It's as if the person who just threatened him wasn't him.
"Why are you looking at him?" Lin Fang looked at Yu Chengbai, then back at Ning Yan, frowning: "I'm asking you, what are you hiding from us?"
Ning Yan took a deep breath, clenched his palms tightly, unclenched them again, clenched them again, and clenched them again.
After repeating this several times, he finally seemed to have made a decision. He looked up at Lin Fang and said seriously, "Me, Moros, and that killer you just saw, K, were all abducted by human traffickers when we were very young and then thrown into a place called Rose Island for training."
"The training is brutal, and few survive."
"The three of us were originally friends."
