Twenty minutes later, Zhang Heng returned to the hospital where Fan Meinan was located.
He parked the car in the parking lot and walked into the inpatient building with the woman in the black tennis uniform. This time, he met the nurse on duty at the nurse's desk. The latter did not expect someone to visit so early, but according to the rules, she asked Zhang Heng and the woman in the black tennis uniform to register. After that, the two of them were allowed to enter the building.
In the ward, Fan Meinan was a little scared when she saw the woman in the black tennis uniform, especially when she remembered the knife that was inserted on the bedside table not long ago. She took half a step back but still called out softly, "Sister."
"Don't. I don't deserve to be called that. You and your little boyfriend have caught me twice," the woman in the black tennis uniform said lightly. The woman in the black tennis attire said lightly, "I'm just a spice in your love life. Whenever you're in a bad mood, you catch me and play with me."
"It's not like that," Fan Meinan explained. "We just want to ask you for a favor."
"Why? Do you still want to continue acting with me?" the woman in the black tennis uniform sneered.
Zhang Heng suddenly said, "It seems that it will be difficult for you to build up enough trust in each other in a short time. It will be difficult for us to make any substantial progress if we continue to talk like this."
"So, do you have any suggestions?" the woman in the black tennis uniform asked.
Zhang Heng took out the Oath Ring and a piece of parchment from his pocket.
"This is a prop. Next, you just need to cut your fingers and mix the blood together. Then, write an oath on this parchment that you will not lie. After that, each of you will wear a ring. If the other party lies, the ring on your finger will burn."
"Oh, I remember playing this game before," the woman in the black tennis uniform said, taking one of the bronze rings and putting it on her finger. "I have no objection."
"I have no objection either," Fan Meinan said, and she put on another ring.
After the two of them wrote their vows on the parchment according to Zhang Heng's instructions, they each handed their ring hand to Zhang Heng. "You can ask a question that you already know the answer to." Zhang Heng said, "You can ask a question that you already know the answer to."
"Then I will go first," Fan Meinan said, asking the woman in the black tennis uniform, "What's your name?"
"Letter of Submission."
"No problem." He could feel that Fan Meinan's ring had not changed, which meant that Cheng Sihan was indeed the real name of the woman in the black tennis uniform.
Next, it was Cheng Sihan's turn to ask a question. A malicious glint flashed in her eyes, and she said, "The first time you met Zhang Heng was not by chance."
Meinan's pupils constricted. After a moment of silence, she nodded and said, "Yes."
"The truth." Zhang Heng's expression did not change. "You have successfully passed the test. Now, you can ask your own questions."
After hearing what he said, Cheng Sihan did not change the topic to the competition. Instead, she continued, "You approached Zhang Heng because of Loki."
This time, Meinan was silent for a long time. Half a minute later, she said with difficulty, "Yes."
"The truth."
"Is it difficult for you to answer, my dear sister? I'm just getting started," Cheng Sihan said with a smile. "It's rare for us to have such a chance to be honest with each other. I can reveal all your dirty secrets to your boyfriend."
Next, it was Meinan's turn to ask questions. She tried to calm down so that she would not be affected by her sister. "Why do you want to kill me?"
"You are an eyesore." Cheng Sihan shrugged.
"Lies." Zhang Heng felt the heat coming from Meinan's ring and reminded Cheng Sihan, "You'd better tell the truth."
"Okay, Loki asked me to do it," Cheng Sihan said.
"The truth."
Cheng Sihan continued to ask, "Have you always been jealous of Loki's favor for me? You want to replace me, even though I was your guide. I pitied you and introduced you to Loki. "
"I didn't." Meinan shook her head. "But I do envy you because you did everything Loki asked you to do. He only asked me to do one thing, and I didn't do it well."
"The truth."
Cheng Sihan looked a little surprised.
But soon, Meinan asked again, "Why did Loki want you to kill me?"
"Because this is my test. Although it's a little late, as long as I pass this test, Loki has no other choice but to choose me as his agent," Cheng Sihan said faintly. After answering this question, she finally became a little more serious. She no longer wanted to expose Meinan's dirty laundry. After thinking for a while, she asked, "Why did you catch me this time?"
"To find out Loki's whereabouts." Meinan looked surprised. "Wait, haven't you passed Loki's test?"
"Otherwise, if I passed his test, would you still be standing here talking to me?" Cheng Sihan sneered. "If my ability hadn't disappeared, you would have caught me so easily." After a pause, she said, "If you want to know Loki's whereabouts, why don't you ask him directly?"
"Because I have lost contact with him for a long time, and he took back the power he gave me," Meinan said.
"The truth."
At this time, Cheng Sihan's expression also changed. She even forgot the rule of one question per person. Then she asked, "Did you not complete your test?"
Meinan nodded. "Your test was to kill me, and my test was to kill Zhang Heng … It seems that we have both made our choices."
"It seems that you really like him," Cheng Sihan said.
Meinan did not answer this time. After a while, she asked, "I wanted to become Loki's agent to deceive the grim reaper, but you never told me how you became Loki's agent."
"The same reason as you, but I did it to save my adoptive father," Cheng Sihan said faintly. "He is terminal cancer, and he doesn't have much time left."
"Then why did you give up halfway?"
"I have now lost my disguise ability, and I don't think I can deal with the police investigation. The risk is too great. I thought about it and decided to give up," Cheng Sihan said casually.
"Lies."
"There are only ten hours left before the end of the first round of proxy war. If we don't pass the test, what will Loki do? Isn't he worried that he will lose his agent?" Meinan was puzzled at this time. "Or does he want to quit this game?"
"Loki likes excitement so much. It's impossible for him to quit this game." Cheng Sihan's face became a little ugly. "This guy is probably fooling us from the beginning to the end. Could it be that he has chosen his agent outside of us long ago?"
