“Good morning, Amon,” a deep voice greeted in a standard American accent .
“I believe I let you know before not to call me while I’m over here,” Mo Qianren responded unwelcomely .
“Hey! Your prisoners are ready to make trouble . If it wasn’t for this I wouldn’t want to call you and listen to your toxic words,” objected the voice on the other end . “Ivey almost tore out the throat of one of our beautiful women and her voice is gone now . Her family is requesting that the hospital compensates them hugely . ”
“I believe my colleagues inside the hospital have already given thorough warnings to the researchers before they even enter that they must not get close to those men . If even a glass pane couldn’t stop an idiotic woman from seeking death, what does that have to do with me?” Mo Qianren’s expression never changed .
This wasn’t the first occurrence of such an incident . Even despite being warned that they were going to meet scary lowlives, they were still deceived by appearances . Translated by The Novelst
“If there’s nothing else, then goodbye . ” Mo Qianren wasn’t planning to return to the states yet, and he didn’t want to hear these things from these idiots .

“Hey, hey! Amon, don’t be like this . Ivey told me he really wants to see your marvelous face . He misses you a lot and wants you to return quickly!”
“Is that so? Your lies are so easy to see through . Ivey’s greatest wish in this life is likely to not ever see my face again . Why would he miss me? Go and brush up on your technique before talking to me . Goodbye . ” He clicked the phone off as soon as he was done speaking .
……
The Lan Family had a house in the Qinghe Villa area . It was Lan Binglin who had helped the Jin Family overcome their hardship, so he had received a villa as well . Lan Binglin had then gifted that villa to Lan Baifeng . Lan Binglin was quite happy . He didn’t have any plans to live there, preferring the bustling city to the remote villa area .
So the entry cards and house keys were left in Lan Yiyang’s hands . Lan Baifeng wanted to present Buddha with borrowed flowers to Grandpa Lan through Lan Yiyang’s hands, so that’s how they had ended up in his hands .
Lan Yiyang was stopped at the iron gate entrance by Uncle Bao . He showed his entry card and was let in as a homeowner .
Before he entered, he skillfully questioned Uncle Bao regarding the location of Mu Rulan’s house .

He followed the road and managed to find her house . But before the gate, he furrowed his brows .
The house in front of him was a shade of black-grey in European architecture . It looked very old and shabby, with dried leaves scattered all over the place . The only swing in the courtyard shook slightly in the wind, creaking ominously . The ugly puppet doll on top of it smiled bloodily with crimson lips .
This didn’t look like a place Mu Rulan would live in at all . Was he in the wrong place?
Lan Yiyang looked at the lock on the gate, thinking he might be at the wrong house . Mu Rulan should be inside a beautiful, clean fairytale house, not this kind of shabby and ominous-looking house .
He turned around, wanting to leave . Before he could take a step, he heard a few noises .
He focused again, but didn’t hear anything .
Lan Yiyang thought he heard wrong, so he prepared once again to leave . But at this time that noise sounded again, and this time continuously: bang, bang, bang… like someone was using something to knock against the wall or window .

It… was coming from the house, right?
Lan Yiyang found it odd . This probably wasn’t her house… but what if it was?
Lan Yiyang stopped immediately as he wondered why there would be such a noise coming from this house if it was indeed Mu Rulan’s house .
Lan Yiyang thought of the dead body being discovered in the villa area . It was just one road away . Such danger!
In his mind, he began to imagine a scene where Mu Rulan was tied up by the criminal who barged into her house, her mouth also sealed with tape . And now the noise was her thinking creatively to attract someone’s attention while the criminal was out of the house in the early morning .
His expression changed, and he grabbed the railing of the gate to vault over it . He didn’t go through the front door but instead went straightforwardly to one of the windows . He scaled the tree to the second floor .
Jin Biaohu was woken by the knocking in the wardrobe . He moved his eyes in terror, looking for the source of the noise before he pinpointed it . Thinking about the puppet doll inside, his face paled .
He wanted to move his fingers but felt a sharp pain sweep up his arm . Soon after, his nerves seem to wake from sleep, his entire body feeling like on fire .
All the bones in his four limbs were broken and knocked out of place under his intact skin and muscles, broken perfectly into sections .
He had already forgotten the way he passed out in pain the day before, pleading silently with Mu Rulan to just finish him off instead of tormenting him . Translated by The Novelst
Jin Biaohu was deep in despair, fearing the things that were still to come . If god was willing to give him another chance, he would definitely turn over a new leaf and be a good person . He didn’t want to face such retribution any longer!
Suddenly he saw a figure flash by the window all of a sudden . Eyes wide, he stared with desperation at the frosted window .
