The content of the text ssage isn’t long, but the amount of information it contains is quite vast. Feng Mu’s brain montarily overloaded; he just wanted so quiet.
The reward has arrived, and the courier is here.
My goods weren’t lost, my courier didn’t get lost, and the Destiny mber who died in the old and run-down community wasn’t my courier~
Was I wrong from start to finish?
Feng Mu was filled with mixed emotions. He pondered for a mont, and although he still couldn’t see the full picture clearly, like seeing flowers through the fog, the outline of the flowers beca a little clearer. He deduced two answers.
Answer 1: I was panicking over nothing and seemingly don’t need to flee for now.
Answer 2: The goods have arrived, and it seems like the courier is that insidious and vicious guy, Ma Bin~
The answer deduced this ti shouldn’t be wrong...right~
Thinking with a dry mouth and tongue, Feng Mu suddenly gasped, thinking of an extrely terrifying and absurd guess.
If Ma Bin really is the courier, then why is there an hour’s difference between the two overlapping locations’ tis?
The first hour was for as the Online mber of Destiny to connect;
The second hour was for as the La Monster to et.
Ma Bin clearly harbored ill intentions; he wanted to use my previous identity’s strength to ambush and kill my later self~
Bad news: Ma Bin really is insidious, vicious, and dishonest; he wants to kill .
Good news: He has beco my Offline!
Exhaling a long breath, Feng Mu, with a complex mood, withdrew the ssage he was editing and composed a new ssage to reply to Ma Bin:
—— Okay, Zheng Si’s head is mine, no one else can take it, see you in two hours.
.....
The ti rewinds slightly to when the Mask went on a killing spree in the old and run-down community; at another half-finished building, another story and slaughter were simultaneously unfolding.
The dark staircase spiraled upwards, and due to the walls not yet being sealed, one had to walk very carefully, or they might trip and fall, shattering themselves to pieces.
"Why not bring everyone back to Blood Rose?" Zheng Si rasped, one eye filled with brutality.
Ma Bin led the way, explaining, "Too many people were tied up, causing too much commotion; there were a lot of patrol office cars on the road, so I had to choose a more secluded place."
Zheng Si snorted coldly, not entirely satisfied with Ma Bin’s explanation: "Didn’t I tell you to deal with Li Shang?"
Ma Bin lowered his voice, sighed, and said, "I sent people, but unfortunately, they failed."
Inwardly, he thought, "Yes, I sent people; I dispatched two groups, one to rob, one to rescue."
Zheng Si sneered, "Useless."
Ma Bin had no rebuttal and buried his face deeper to prevent Zheng Si from noticing any clues.
He said, "A total of 49 people were tied up and brought back. Anyway, the murderer who killed Hang must be among them. Since they’re in our hands, finding out the real culprit is just a matter of ti."
Zheng Si, seeking revenge for his son, was nearly deranged: "If we can interrogate the truth out of them, so be it; if not, then send them all down to accompany Hang; he’s getting lonely down there."
Ma Bin agreed.
The top floor wasn’t sealed, and an iron door was installed. Ma Bin had it put in, specially reinforced, and now it was ajar, with the sound of crying and shouting seeping through the crack.
Ma Bin moved aside slightly, gesturing for Zheng Si to proceed.
Tornted by murderous intent, Zheng Si let out a sneer, grabbed the iron door, and stepped inside.
Pong!
The iron door was slamd shut, the locks clanging into place, pinning the door firmly to the load-bearing wall.
"Boss, I’m sorry, you’ve completely lost it, and I can’t just watch you drag Cyan Wolf Gang into the abyss, so..."
Through the heavy iron door, Ma Bin’s roaring voice ca in, carrying a strong undertone of struggle.
The unexpected betrayal sobered Zheng Si for a mont, and then he saw several ard Chief Constables standing in front of him.
There were no 49 bound suspects, only a tape recorder endlessly playing white noise.
Li Shang lifted his foot and crushed the tape recorder, while Chang Erbing and others raised their guns and aid at Zheng Si.
"Ma Bin, how dare you betray ?" Zheng Si’s eyes burned with anger, and his furious roar threatened to rip Ma Bin to pieces through the door cracks.
He slamd his fist heavily on the door, causing Ma Bin, who was leaning against it, to tremble slightly.
Ma Bin smiled a sinister grin, yet his tone remained as respectful as always: "Boss, I’m sorry, but don’t worry; Captain Li Shang promised to leave your body intact, and I’ll arrange the best coffin for your grand burial...."
Zheng Si’s forehead veins bulged, his thick arms bursting through his clothes, pounding the door frantically.
Bang bang bang!
The iron door vibrated violently, deep and uneven fist marks denting its surface, each blow seemingly capable of breaking it open, yet always just short of the strength needed.
Li Shang couldn’t bear to watch and sneered disdainfully: "Boss Zheng, don’t waste your efforts, this iron door was custom-made by Ma Bin just for you, there’s no breaking it open with your fists."
Zheng Si paused upon hearing this, turning to glare at Li Shang with gritted teeth, his eyes filled with fire, ready to devour anyone in front of him.
"Why are you helping Ma Bin?" Zheng Si asked hoarsely, staring warily at the gun barrel aid at him.
Li Shang rubbed his waist where an injury still ached, chuckling with anger: "You tried to kidnap my wife and kids, what do you think?"
Zheng Si didn’t deny it; he interpreted Li Shang’s words as he expected, understanding now that Ma Bin had betrayed him.
So he assud Ma Bin hadn’t done it at all and had just confessed to Li Shang. But in reality... Ma Bin not only did it but went even further than what he’d confessed.
Zheng Si was so angry he laughed, his laughter wild: "You wrongly accused my son and obstructed my investigation of the murderer?!!"
Li Shang’s eyes turned icy cold: "The patrol office never wrongfully accuses anyone; you’re the one who’s insane!"
"Die!"
Zheng Si roared, tearing his clothes apart to reveal muscles like iron blocks, and pounced forward like a rampaging tiger.
"You’re the one who will die~"
Li Shang sneered, and at his command, several Chief Constables who had been standing in position fired their guns, bullets raining down from all directions like a howling storm.
.....
Outside the door, at the sudden onset of gunfire, Ma Bin stepped briskly down the stairs to the underground garage. A man in a black hat erged from the darkness: "Contact person, I’m here for the goods."
Ma Bin stared at him expressionlessly.
The man lowered the brim of his hat, revealing eyes as lifeless as those of a dead fish, and spoke the contact phrase: "My goods are not my goods!"
Ma Bin’s hand relaxed slightly inside his pocket, the faint black glow on the back of his hand silently dissipating, and he replied, "Deep-diving fish see no light."
The contact phrase matched.
"The goods are inside," Ma Bin said, pushing open the door to the underground garage, imdiately t by a thick, fresh tallic scent of blood.
The man in the black hat walked in, seeing forty-four bodies of Cyan Wolf Gang mbers lying on the ground. There were no obvious wounds on them, and their lips curled slightly into smiles before death, a strange spectacle.
The man in the black hat hesitated for a mont, curious as to how the contact person, who didn’t know martial arts, killed these people, but he didn’t ask aloud.
Respecting each mber’s privacy and secrets was a rule of Destiny; he only needed to collect the goods.
On the ground, the blood from the forty-four bodies had been drained, sketching out a bizarre ritual diagram, with forty-four blindfolded individuals lying limp in the center, motionless, like a giant snake coiled on the ground.
The man in the black hat counted and frowned: "Five units are missing."
Ma Bin sighed: "Five died during transportation, consider it normal wastage."
The man in the black hat nodded, then stepped into the center of the ritual diagram, taking out a palm-sized statue from his bosom, placing it reverently and fervently in the center of the "giant snake".
If Feng Mu were here, he’d recognize the face of that statue was precisely his own from a past life—Feng Mu.
The man in the black hat exited the ritual diagram, nodded at Ma Bin, placed one hand on his chest, and said solemnly, "For Destiny, we offer death!"
The always cold and venomous Ma Bin’s expression turned solemn, as he too placed his hand over his heart, fervently declaring, "For Destiny, we offer death!"
