As they sped through the city, it was already dark when they arrived.

She said goodbye to the man, then rushed into the café and dialed the number. The phone rang, and she looked around, but there was no ring in the café.

The man must have left impatiently from waiting!

She immediately ran out of the coffee shop and continued dialing while walking haphazardly.

She couldn't stay in the same place, because she would be easily discovered by Mo Zixiao's men.

After calling countless times, a man's coarse voice finally came out, "You're late!"

"Yes. Sorry, I met with an accident on the way, so I was late. Can we meet? I still want my stuff. I really need it. " After she finished speaking in one breath, she did not dare to pause for fear that the man would not agree.

There was a long silence on the other end of the line. Then, with a pleading tone in her voice, she asked carefully, "Can I? Can I trouble you to come out again? "

"Alright! We'll meet again at the same place in ten minutes! " Finally, there was a response.

"Yes, yes, yes. Thank you so much! I'll be waiting for you! " She was so happy that she almost burst into tears. She hung up the phone and immediately dashed back into the coffee shop.

Entering the coffee shop attracted all the customers to look at her. She knew she was in a sorry state, but she didn't dare to run to Wei Wei. She first went to wash her face before finding a seat near the window. Just as she sat down, a young and handsome waiter came over and politely asked, "Miss, do you need any help?"

"No. No need. Thank you! Please get me a cup of coffee and a piece of CHESS cake. " She quickly waved her hand.

"Are you really all right? Your face and arm are all wounds. Wait? If you need me, I can help you call the police! " the young waiter asked warmly. "There's really no need." She felt a headache coming on. Right now, she was most afraid of being noticed. "Please leave me alone."

"Alright then!" Just a moment, please, and the coffee will be here in a minute. " The waiter finally gave up and left. Not long later, he served a cup of steaming hot coffee and a small piece of delicious CHESS cake.

She sipped her coffee, checked the time on her cell phone, checked that ten minutes had passed, and looked up at the door.

The door just happened to be pushed open. The person who came was big and tall, with curly brown hair and a thick beard. His sunken eyes had a serious expression, as if he had been staying up all night.

Instinctively she wanted to raise her hand, but in the end she didn't, because she was on the run now, and she couldn't afford to be so flamboyant if she wasn't sure the person was on the phone.

The man came in, stopped at the door, looked around, and settled on her.

Frowning, he strode toward her.

Her heart rose high in her chest as she waited there quietly. Her mood was complex, and she didn't know if it was death or angels.

He sat down across from her and took out his hands, which had been in the pockets of his pants, and placed some papers on the table.

She didn't dare to look at it too closely and felt that she didn't need to because the person designated by JASON definitely had good skills.

She grabbed it and stuffed it into her briefcase. "How much should I pay you?" she asked in a low voice.

The man smiled indifferently, "I will naturally make a deal with JASON for the money. You don't need to worry about it."

"So it's like that! Thank you very much! " She was worried at first that he would ask for a lot of money, which was illegal, and she wondered how much money JASON had paid for his papers and how much she would be able to handle in the short term, back home, if she bought a plane ticket.

Now, seeing that he didn't want it, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

It was always good to have more money. Now, she truly felt that money was not omnipotent, but it was absolutely impossible to not have money.

She had experienced the pain of being unable to move an inch.

"It looks like you've had a hard time." He was in no hurry to leave. His sharp eyes examined the wound on her arm and face.

"There's no danger!" She smiled wryly.

"Go buy some clothes, then quickly and obediently stay in the hotel. Don't come out." He stood up, threw down a word of advice, and turned to leave.

She ate the coffee and the cake in a few bites, then paid and went to Wei. He washed his face briefly, ran his hand through his hair a few times. He looked much fresher and cleaner, then left the café in a hurry.

She didn't dare to go to the store and directly bought a second-hand two-piece set of clothes. The quality seemed pretty good and it was even a famous brand.

He also gave her a small bag to buy her clothes. Basically, she could store her phone or some change in it.

That was exactly what she needed right now.

He put on the black suit and went to the pharmacy to buy some ointment.

After paying the bill, he directly crossed the street and moved into the Manhattan Hotel.

This was the hotel where she and Xiao Boyao had stayed when they first arrived. As she walked in again, her emotions were indescribably complicated.

It had only been a short week, but she felt as if she had gone through thousands and thousands of trials and tribulations, as if it were a lifetime ago.

Things were really different!

She lived in a single room on the thirteenth floor. As soon as she entered, she immediately walked into Wei's office. Bath at birth.

When the water washed over her, she felt pain all over her body, but she did not groan. She hastily washed and rinsed herself, simply blew her hair half dry, and walked out of the bathroom.

She booked a plane ticket through the hotel, and the next morning the plane ticket ran out. It was the earliest at 2: 30 in the afternoon.

She ordered it immediately.

Because she was sore all over, even though she knew that everything in the hotel was worth a fortune, she still opened a glass of red wine.

She was sitting in front of the French window with half a glass of wine in her hand. Looking at the charming neon lights outside and the dragon-like traffic flow, she felt empty inside.

Tomorrow, she would leave this sinful city, and after that, she would have to deal with all the ugliness one after another. This night would probably be considered as one of peace for her, right?

When she had first entered the city, she had been afraid that Mo Zixiao would capture her in the city, but now that the dust had settled and she was finally clean and sitting happily in this clean and tidy room, she suddenly realized that her worries were unnecessary.

At this moment, Mo Zixiao might have even thought that she had suffered through the change in the forest. Did the perverted murderer do it?

What was he doing now?

Was he still leading people to search the mountain?

Or could it be that he didn't care and gave up after some searching?

Now that he had returned to his comfortable and luxurious room, wouldn't he be standing by the window like her, holding a glass of wine?

Would he miss her? Would he be a little sad about her death?

No! No! He was just a substitute. If he died not long ago, would there be a girl more similar to her that came to his side?

Thinking up to here, she shook her head with a faint smile. The world is unpredictable, destiny begins and ends in the blink of an eye.

Meeting each other was like a dream. Perhaps she had been gentle and beautiful before, but after waking up from that dream, nothing had changed …

That night, she drank a whole bottle of red wine. She was so drunk that she blurrily climbed onto the chuang and slept until dawn without even dreaming, let alone dreaming of him.

When she woke up, she was staring at the snow-white ceiling hair. Stunned, thinking, so some people said that disappearing can be very clean disappearing, fate is shallow?

Because of her hangover, she felt weak all over, thinking that it was okay anyway, so she lazily leaned on the chuang, thinking that it would be good to lie on the chuang like this for the rest of the morning.

Since he wasn't hungry, he might as well eat lunch together. After eating, he could just call someone and head to the airport.

He was about to go back to sleep when he suddenly heard a noise coming from the door. He hurriedly got up to read it and saw a newspaper stuffed into the room.

She remembered that the hotel provided daily newspapers for guests.

Thinking of the terrible thing that had happened yesterday, she hurriedly lifted off her blanket and jumped off the bed. She quickly ran over and picked up the newspaper. As expected, she saw a line of bold headlines — Lake Eden tragedy.

The following text was translated to read as follows: Lake Eden has changed again. Slaughterer, an Asian woman whose whereabouts are unknown, the police estimate that this woman has been killed, the police have been banned. They had locked the entire forest of Lake Eden and were searching anxiously for the location of the mountain.

When she saw this, her heart was first filled with joy, and then with an inexplicable sense of loss and sadness. However, it only took a short while for her to regain her spirit, but the news had already caused her to lose all sleepiness.

He stood up and entered the guard. After a simple wash, he called for a meal.

After eating breakfast, he remembered that he had forgotten to open the curtains. No wonder he felt that it was a bit dark.

By now, it was already nine o'clock. The sun should be shining outside, right?

She walked to the window and pressed her hand on it. The curtain was slowly pulled apart, and what greeted her was not the bright sunlight she had imagined. Instead, it was the pouring rain.

She was somewhat stunned. Only now did she understand why she had felt that the sound was so strange. It was only the sound of the raindrops hitting the window.

However, this was nothing. What shocked her the most was that the sky was very dark, and it was as black as a piece of black iron that was about to come crashing down.

She tried to open the window, but it only opened a little before it hurriedly closed again.

Because they had only opened it for a little bit, they already felt that the gale was like a berserk dragon swinging its body and aggressively roaring towards them.

After closing the window, he realized that his right shoulder was already wet. It must have been because when he opened the window just now, the strong wind had brought the rain with it.

She did not immediately run to change her clothes because looking at such weather, her heart was secretly worried and anxious.

With her arms crossed, she stood by the window, closed her eyes, and prayed that the weather would be so bad that it would only wreak havoc in the morning.

Before he even opened his eyes, he heard the sound of rolling thunder. His eyelids could clearly feel the intense light hitting his body.

"Is there a mistake? What season is it? It's actually thunder and lightning? " She stroked her heart that was filled with shock and hastily closed the curtains, feeling very agitated.

Could it be that the heavens were deliberately preventing her from returning?

Thinking about all the bad things that had happened to him recently, he became even more worried.

He paced up and down in the small room for a long time before deciding to make a phone call.

Half an hour later, she was lying on the chuang like a dead snake, crying out in frustration, "My God! What the hell are you going to do to me?! If you don't want me to leave, why give me the chance to escape! "
