Xia Xiaoi turned her head and asked, "Are you really willing to obey and do anything I say?"
Sun Yijie nodded frantically like pounding garlic. Seeing a chance to survive, he naturally said whatever sounded good: "I am! I'll do anything you want! I'd gladly be your slave for life!"
Xia Xiaoi asked, "What if I told you to help capture other people for to kill? Would you do that?"
"Yes! I would!!!" In his current situation, Sun Yijie would agree even if she demanded his parents' lives.
Xia Xiaoi nodded in satisfaction. But then she sighed deeply: "What a pity, what a pity. You've already been reserved by soone else. Your life isn't mine to decide anymore."
"W-what do you an?!" Sun Yijie stamred.
Xia Xiaoi explained, "In the past when I killed n, I would torture them endlessly until they died in agony. But now that's not possible. I need money, so I've sold you to soone else."
"Sold? What the fuck! I'm a living human being! Wait, you need money? You're so rich already! Look at all that gold jewelry!!!"
Xia Xiaoi said calmly, "Those are all fake. Just ordinary tal painted gold. Bought online for 9.9 yuan with free shipping." She picked up a gold bracelet from the nightstand, cut it with pliers from her toolbox, and showed Sun Yijie the cross-section.
Real gold would remain gold-colored inside when cut, but this bracelet revealed dark brown tal - who knows what cheap material it was made of.
Pfft!
Sun Yijie literally spat out a mouthful of blood - not figuratively. He was genuinely wounded, having risked his life for worthless fakes.
About 50,000 viewers remained in the live stream at this late hour - the most hardcore fans of "Far Neighbor."
Seeing Sun Yijie vomit blood, Ultimate Rich Kid laughed uproariously: [HAHAHAHA, this is hilarious! Poor little Sun Sun.]
Little Aunt comnted: [Nothing funny about it. I just see a desperate man. By the way, did you catch what Xia Xiaoi said earlier? She sold Sun Yijie! To whom?!]
Ultimate Rich Kid: [No idea... maybe she's lying?]
Domineering Female CEO: [Probably not. Several residents have sold lab rats or other perverted tenants in this apartnt building before. There are also several buyers!] [I think this ti it might be...]
Just as Domineering Female CEO was about to type the buyer's identity, new movent appeared in the stream. Soone was knocking on Xia Xiaoi's door in the middle of the night.
Xia Xiaoi opened the door and brought the visitor to the bedroom - a man who appeared to be in his twenties at first glance. But the crow's feet at his eyes betrayed his true age of 35.
He was strikingly handso, blending Eastern and Western features - clearly mixed-race, though his exact heritage was unclear. Dressed in a burgundy suit and black leather shoes, he carried a black briefcase.
"Your buyer is here," Xia Xiaoi said flatly to Sun Yijie on the bed.
Sun Yijie stared at the man, shocked that the buyer would arrive so quickly and even more surprised by his handso, foreign appearance.
The handso mixed-race man smiled at Sun Yijie: "Let introduce myself. Hello, I'm Sherlock."
His Chinese was flawless.
Sun Yijie blinked: "Sherlock? Sherlock Hols?"
"No no no," Sherlock waved his hand. "I'm not that fictional world-famous detective. My father just admired him, so he nad Sherlock. Coincidentally, his surna was Xia too."
Sun Yijie's mind couldn't keep up: "Your father's surna is Xia? Foreigners have that surna?"
Sherlock smiled, his dimples charming: "I'm mixed-race. My father is Chinese, mother is British. Understand?"
After speaking, Sherlock carefully examined Sun Yijie's entire body, studying every muscle and vein with intense scrutiny.
Xia Xiaoi said, "Since you're here, I'll hand Sun Yijie over. How much can you pay?"
Sherlock thought for a minute: "Normally 700,000, but since it's our first transaction, I'll give you an extra 300,000 - 1 million total. I hope we can cooperate often in the future."
Xia Xiaoi nodded, clearly satisfied with the amount. Hearing he'd been sold for 1 million (when his base price was only 700,000), Sun Yijie felt both speechless and humiliated.
He asked Sherlock directly: "Sherlock, why are you buying ? Don't you know human trafficking is illegal?"
Sherlock ignored the second question, only answering the first: "You'll soon find out why I bought you."
Xia Xiaoi brought Sherlock a folding table. He placed his black briefcase on it, opened it, and took out a delicate silver box.
Inside the silver box were only two items: one straight, sharp small knife, and another curved blade.
Sherlock chose the curved knife and stood beside Sun Yijie. Seeing this, Sun Yijie felt extrely uneasy.
Sure enough, Sherlock smiled as he pressed the curved blade against Sun Yijie's eight-pack abs and sliced off a palm-sized piece of bloody flesh.
Sun Yijie scread in agony. Then sothing even more horrifying happened.
Sherlock took out a white cloth from his briefcase, spread it neatly on the table, and placed the flesh upon it with sacred reverence, as if handling holy relics.
Sun Yijie was completely stunned, watching this scene in terror, his eyes nearly popping out of his skull.
What the hell was this guy doing?!
Was he... so kind of sadistic, body-mutilating psychopath?
