Is this thing used to locate aliens?
Just as Chuzheng was suspecting, two more red dots appeared on the screen.
Chuzheng: "..."
What the hell!
Those two red dots were approaching her, then overlapped with her location.
Ding dong—
The doorbell rang without any warning.
Chuzheng: "!!!"
Chuzheng held the locator and walked to the door, first taking a glance outside.
A man and a woman were dressed in hotel staff uniforms, with their heads lowered, making their faces hard to see clearly.
Perhaps because Chuzheng didn’t open the door, the female staff pressed the doorbell again.
Ding dong—
Chuzheng looked down at the locator in her hand, still overlapping with her location...
"Could it be that she’s not there?"
"She must be, I saw her return."
"Why isn’t she opening the door then?"
"Press it one more ti."
The female staff pressed the doorbell a few more tis, but Chuzheng didn’t open the door for them.
Chuzheng thought they would wisely leave, but unexpectedly the male staff stepped forward and began to twist the door handle.
Chuzheng noticed signs of the door handle lting...
What the hell!
Don’t pull a fast one like this!
Chuzheng swiftly opened the door before the handle could completely lt.
Chuzheng sensed the area by the door imdiately returned to normal; it must have been so sort of ability.
It seems these two people might be aliens too.
Chuzheng kept a straight face, her tone extrely cold: "What are you up to?"
The people outside paused noticeably.
They probably hadn’t expected anyone to be in the room, since they had rung the doorbell so many tis without anyone coming to open it...
Chuzheng instantly recognized the woman outside the door as the one she saw during her stowaway trip, the woman who didn’t have money for a ticket.
The male staff beside her kept his head down, making his face hard to see.
"Hello, this is the midnight snack you ordered." The female staff didn’t show any special emotion, pointing to the dining cart beside.
Chuzheng remained indifferent: "I didn’t order it."
Using such weird technology to deliver food? I see your intentions aren’t good!
The female staff appeared surprised, eting Chuzheng’s gaze: "Wasn’t it you? You..."
Only now did she clearly see the person in front of her and paused briefly, then her eyes brightened: "We t before on the ship, do you rember?"
Chuzheng didn’t answer.
The female staff continued: "I really didn’t expect to see you here, we have to thank you for that incident, otherwise we might’ve..."
"You don’t have any identification, how did you get here as staff?" Chuzheng threw out the question suddenly.
The female staff’s expression visibly stiffened.
"Pub..."
The male staff had just started speaking when the female staff pinched him.
The female staff pleaded: "We ca up with a bit of a way... for our livelihood, there’s no choice, please don’t report us."
Who knows what you’re up to!
"Anything else?" The girl’s voice was clear and icy, devoid of warmth.
The female staff faltered: "No... nothing else..."
Chuzheng closed the door without hesitation.
She stood inside, observing through the peephole.
"Why are you stopping ?" The male staff broke free from the female staff, his voice filled with anger.
Female staff: "Didn’t you notice that Miss doesn’t seem to recognize us?"
Male staff: "..."
Female staff: "Alright, stop talking here, let’s leave first. Before we arouse suspicion."
Chuzheng watched the red dots on the locator gradually move away until they vanished completely.
They must have gone out of the range that can be located.
Those two specifically ca looking for her...
Miss...
Were they brought by the original owner?
In the mories Chuzheng received, there was nothing about these two.
Chuzheng didn’t dare make rash judgnts, what if they were sent by Qing Dai?
But Chuzheng was certain of one thing, the thing in her hand could indeed locate aliens.
-
The short-haired girl indeed ca the next day, Chuzheng was in a bad mood, wanting to go out, and sent the short-haired girl to teach Brother Hui driving.
The short-haired girl was a bit afraid of Brother Hui, but she still had to listen to her savior.
So the short-haired girl taught Brother Hui driving all morning.
In the following days, the short-haired girl was employed by Chuzheng as a dedicated coach.
Boys seem naturally quick to pick up on these things; Brother Hui quickly grasped the basics within days.
Chuzheng stayed at the hotel all day without going out, just checking the locator every day.
Qing Dai’s location kept changing, east one mont, west the next, clearly a busy person.
Once Brother Hui’s driving was adequate, Chuzheng obtained a way to get to Zone One.
They followed to enter the caravan transporting goods to Zone One.
This is where the importance of a car cos in.
Having a car, others look at you differently, negotiations beco easier... although Chuzheng thinks she can negotiate well with her fists too.
Brother Hui drove a bit awkwardly, Chuzheng feared he might suddenly crash into sothing, eventually unable to bear it anymore, switched seats with him.
"Miss Chuzheng, you can drive!" Brother Hui looked surprised.
"I never said I couldn’t."
Brother Hui: "..."
Alright then.
Indeed, it was never ntioned.
During the caravan’s inspection, because they and Brother Hui were unfamiliar faces, they were inspected.
But the caravan’s leader murmured to the guards, and the caravan was soon allowed through.
Zone One’s streets were cleaner than Zone Two’s, and the buildings were more spacious.
If Zone One was a high-end estate, this was a standalone villa.
Out of curiosity, Brother Hui asked, "Miss Chuzheng, what are we doing in Zone One?"
Chuzheng: "Finding soone."
"Who?"
Chuzheng thought of the familiar na often reported in the newspaper: "He Jin."
Brother Hui suspected he misheard, unsurely asking, "Who?"
Chuzheng glanced at him without answering.
Brother Hui swallowed hard...
Is it the He Jin he’s thinking of?
Is it the He Jin with the greatest authority in Zone One?
Crazy! Why would they go find the biggest official there?
Plus, just anyone can find soone like that?
Brother Hui later learned that she really could find whoever she wanted...
-
After finishing a eting, He Jin returned ho and noticed the unusually quiet surroundings, feeling odd.
There were housekeepers at ho, so this ti of day usually had so activity, why so silent now?
He Jin shouted twice, but got no response.
He Jin frowned, glanced upstairs, and climbed cautiously.
The housekeeper was found tied in the hallway upstairs, He Jin’s expression changed, and he went over to remove the cloth from her mouth.
The housekeeper imdiately said, "Soone’s in the study."
"How many?"
"Two..."
He Jin freed the housekeeper and was about to tell her to go call for help when the study door was opened.
A brawny man erged, followed closely by a young girl, dressed simply, hands in her pockets, looking indifferently at him.
"Who are you!"
He Jin imdiately shouted sternly.
"We have a matter to discuss with Mr. He." The speaker was the girl, her tone calm and cold, drifting over slowly: "Mr. He, there’s no need to call for help, I can co here directly, I can leave safely too."
He Jin’s hand paused at his waist.
