Chapter 1138: 1138
Once Hoshino finished speaking, he had already taken the jacket placed at the side before Bo Jiu could react . “Shall we use a different way to track the mastermind of the Maiden’s Sacrifice? Before I came, I bought some pieces of news . I left them at the Fifth Avenue . ”

“Okay . ” Bo Jiu had already noticed that there was a problem there . It looked like a simple gathering of people with twisted principles but the actual consequences caused were getting worse every time . The serial suicide case this time involved subconsciously conditioned minds . Fan Jia wouldn’t be able to complete this alone .
Before she left, Bo Jiu stopped abruptly and looked at her phone that was turned off . In the end, she still went to the phone booth and made an international call .
The phone was picked up very quickly . The person must have answered immediately when he noticed that it wasn’t a local number . “Hello . Is this Jiu? Is this Jiu?”
The reception wasn’t good so the conversation kept getting cut off occasionally . However, He Honghua’s voice could still be heard .
Bo Jiu knew that He Honghua would be worried since such a huge thing happened . She couldn’t walk away from He Honghua because she was using this body and she knew how much this mother loved her daughter . Whenever she met He Honghua, she would feel guilty towards her . She didn’t know how to tell He Honghua that the daughter she loved wasn’t around anymore .
At first, Bo Jiu had the intention of following her heart and telling He Honghua the entire truth . But after hearing He Honghua’s voice, the thought disappeared .
“It’s me . ” Bo Jiu knew that, sometimes, in order to make someone happy, you needed to tell many lies . She was someone that hated lying . However, she said the most lies to He Honghua . “Mrs He, don’t worry . I’m fine . I’m doing well in America . My phone dropped in the water when I was filming so I can’t make calls properly . ”
He Honghua hesitated for a long time before she opened her mouth and replied, “Jiu, why don’t we stop playing the game?”
He Honghua was someone who didn’t care about the opinions of other people . Bo Jiu knew this better than anyone . She was from a village and because of her identity, there would always be people criticizing her no matter what she did, even if her husband was snatched by someone else .
Well, she did have a loud voice, which made her sound like a country bumpkin . But even so, she had never admitted defeat . Other people said that she didn’t have the caliber to become the shareholder of the Fu Group . No one remembered that she was the one who provided the start-up fund of the Fu Group . She was qualified to be a shareholder .

After she had been chased out, she had suffered greatly . You could say that the things Bo Jiu was going through weren’t even 10% of what this mother had gone through . From a certain point of view, Bo Jiu wasn’t a person that was easy to bully . But in the past, what did He Honghua have?
Some people had used true love as an excuse to rob her . They had felt that Fu Zhongyi and Su Mei should be together .
He Honghua was just a village girl . She should just go back to where she came from .
Even during that point in time, He Honghua had gritted her teeth and persevered through it . For someone like her to say these words, you could imagine how she was feeling currently .
He Honghua didn’t understand some things . After all, her age wasn’t young anymore . But she didn’t want her daughter to get scolded by other people . If they wanted to scold someone, she hoped that they would target her instead .
Actually, all mothers felt the same way . They just wanted their child to have a good life . To a mother, it didn’t matter how many people stabbed her . But if someone hurt their child, their hearts would hurt so much that they couldn’t sleep .
Bo Jiu held the phone and paused for a second when she heard the person’s plea . Finally, she said, “Okay, I won’t play games anymore . ”
Someone who wasn’t afraid of rumors had their soft spots too . Bo Jiu’s soft spot was He Honghua .
Many times, people asked themselves why they didn’t become a bad person . After all, in this world, there were many cases of people seizing other people’s things . They just needed to act pitiful and they would be able to gain many supporters . As for those people who persisted in their passion and work, they were unable to get back the things that belonged to them . The cost of becoming a bad person was too low . It was so low it was negligible . However, a normal person was always bound by this thing called conscience .
When Bo Jiu hung up the call, Hoshino was standing outside the phone booth . He glanced at Bo Jiu and frowned slightly .

“Letting someone know that I’m safe . ” Bo Jiu didn’t explain the details of her conversation . There didn’t seem to be many fluctuations in her emotions too . However, there was a sentence she was serious about . She had entered the esports industry because the person she liked liked to play games .
Bo Jiu liked the feeling of fighting alongside the other members of Supreme Alliance .
Every time someone decided to give up on something they liked, it was because of their soft spot .
If it were other people, they wouldn’t notice anything different about Bo Jiu but Hoshino wasn’t just anyone . When he looked at the back view of that person, he saw loneliness . The loneliness ended very quickly though . After a turn and getting on the sports car, Bo Jiu had turned back into Z, the young lord of the hackers, who was able to withstand anything .
She steered the steering wheel with one hand and tapped the navigation system to check the route . After confirming, she drove into the main street . The car was travelling at a high speed . Still, she was able to evade all the cars . When she brushed past the other cars, one could hear the sound of the wind caused by the high speed .
In China, many people were waiting for Spade Z’s reply . After all, the direction of public opinion had changed . Yet, no matter what they replied, Spade Z seemed to have disappeared .
Even Lin Feng noticed this problem . He couldn’t contact Little Spade at all . It wasn’t because Little Spade didn’t pick up his call . The number seemed to have been cancelled .
When that issue happened, Lin Feng tried to contact Bo Jiu continuously . But he only received the news that Yun Hu was coming back after he had gotten home and opened his official Weibo account . His fans had tagged him .
Lin Feng was stunned . He held his mouse tightly and stared at the screen motionlessly . He didn’t have the time to take off his suit so he looked a little blank . He had probably never expected Yun Hu to come back so quickly . It had only been one day .
Sometimes, he couldn’t help but wonder what his lifestyle would be like in the future . There was one point in his future plan: When he met Yun Hu again, it must be because he missed him too much so he flew over to find him . He would go to find him but he wouldn’t let Yun Hu know .

Lin Feng couldn’t stand the scene where they had to talk even though they had nothing to say to each other, especially between the two of them . Also, besides Yun Hu, there would be another person standing beside him .
Once he thought about this, Lin Feng felt that no matter how badly he missed Yun Hu, he shouldn’t fly over . After all, he had already started his new life . However, today, he had actually said that he was coming back .
It was understandable that Lin Feng was stunned . After he regained his senses, he took his wallet and wanted to visit his team to see what was going on . The moment he went down, he met Yun Hu’s mother .
Since the Lin family already moved out of the military compound, it was obvious that Mother Yun came because something happened .
In the living room, she held the cup of tea her good friend, Mother Lin, made for her and shook her head . “I don’t know what to say about Yun Hu . So many preparations were made for this trip . In order to get the only quota of the school, he started working hard ever since the first year in university . He always looked for me to discuss certain problems and finally managed to get the position . Yet, right before the plane took off, he called me on my phone and told me that he didn’t want to study abroad anymore . I’ve never heard such a serious tone from him before . When he said that he will be going over to quit his studies, I thought that he was kidding . Yet, he really…” Mother Yun couldn’t continue speaking .
Her son had never caused any trouble in the past . He was so outstanding she didn’t have to care much about him . Mother had Yun never expected Yun Hu to make a decision alone for something so important . He had even made the decision to quit school .
Before Yun Hu had left, she had specially called one of her friends there . Her friend was a professor at that university so he would be a great help to her son in the future .
No one was able to understand her feelings . When she had called her son to ask if he landed safely, this was the reply she had received .
“Don’t you think that it’s absurd? He came back because he wanted to continue playing games . ”
Mother Lin was sitting opposite her . “Actually, sometimes, I feel that we’re too cruel . We always think about what’s best for them from our perspective . However, we forget to ask them what they really like . The amount of time Lin Feng spent on his projects is more than twice the amount of time he spent at his club . On the surface, nothing can be seen but I know that as compared to doing business, that fellow prefers to play games . Hence, I plan to take over the management of the company for this period of time . He will be able to do what he really likes for at least three more years . ”
Mother Yun seemed enlightened . She leaned over and smiled . “You’re right . When we were young, we agreed that once we get married and have children, we must let them do what they want . I’m the one who forgot about it . However, those two people really like to play games . Do you remember that when they were young, they would hold a game console each and sit on the floor? Then they fell asleep with their heads touching each other because they were too tired . ”
“Of course I remember . ” Mother Lin shook her head . “So many years have passed but the two of them never changed . ”
“You’re right . ” Mother Yun was thinking about something .
Mother Lin saw this and poured more tea for her . “No one knows whether there will be another chance after missing this opportunity to go overseas to study . Since you’re in a bad mood, should I say something to lighten up your mood?”
“What is it?” Mother Yun was curious .
Mother Lin moved over and said, “Yesterday, after Hu left, my stupid son cried . You were too busy dealing with other things so you didn’t see his expression . ”
Lin Feng, who was about to walk over to express his gratitude could only think, “Is this his real mother?”
