Before letting Guo Miao out of the car, Zhang Heng glanced at Han Lu, who shook her head.
The next moment, Zhang Heng kicked Guo Miao out of the car. Han Lu stepped on the accelerator, and the Lexus disappeared into the night, leaving a trail of smoke behind.
Guo Miao's cries for help had attracted the attention of the factory's security guards. Half a minute later, his mask was pulled off his head. Even now, Guo Miao was still confused. He had no idea what had happened during that time.
Why did he suddenly appear in a car? What was the other party's purpose in kidnapping him?
Everything that had happened tonight was like a bizarre nightmare to him. Guo Miao shook his head and muttered to himself, "What a strange thing."
…..
At the same time, in the Lexus LC, Zhang Heng and Han Lu remained silent.
After a while, Zhang Heng broke the silence. "I didn't expect you to be so calm."
"What can I do? Kill Guo Miao? Will you kill him for me? What's the point of killing him other than getting us into a lawsuit? Or beat him up? According to what you said, the curse is already in effect. Killing him won't change anything, right? "Han Lu said.
"This … it's hard to say. Some people suspect that killing the Dreamland of Death's holder is part of the solution, although previous events have proven that killing the holder alone can't eliminate the Dreamland of Death's effects," Zhang Heng said frankly.
"If it's confirmed, I'm willing to take the risk," Han Lu said calmly. "But if it's just to vent my anger, forget it. There are a lot of people who hate me. Guo Miao just happened to get the chance. He probably doesn't even know what he's done. He doesn't even have the courage to stand in front of me to seek justice for his brother. All he can do is resort to crooked means …"
Han Lu paused. "Let's not talk about him. I believe you now. There are some things in this world that science can't explain. So, can you help me break the curse?"
"I'll try my best, but I can't guarantee the result," Zhang Heng said.
"… Shouldn't you comfort me first? It's like when you go to the hospital for a checkup. Even if you can't be saved, the doctor will tell you that you're fine."
"Sorry, I thought people like you would want to hear the truth."
"Theoretically, yes. But it turns out that women are creatures that like to lie," Han Lu said as she drove the Lexus onto the highway again.
"Where are we going next?"
"Let's go back first to meet a friend."
Considering that time was of the essence, Han Lu stepped on the accelerator as hard as she could on the way back. She completely ignored the speed limit sign on the side of the highway. Compared to her life, 12 minutes was nothing. In the end, Han Lu drove back in less than three hours.
The Lexus stopped outside a KTV.
After a while, Fan Meinan, who was wearing a flight attendant uniform, bounced out from inside.
"Hey, are you bringing your new girlfriend to show off to me?! What about that Japanese girl? Did you cruelly abandon her after eating her up? "
Zhang Heng ignored someone's sarcasm and looked at Fan Meinan's outfit. "Who's unlucky this time?"
"Hehehe, there's a young man who runs a film company who likes to target female students in the name of signing models. I heard that he likes to come here to sing, so I waited here in advance to give him a big gift," Fan Meinan said as she adjusted the flight attendant cap on her head.
"Let's stop playing. Have you contacted the person for me?"
"Yes, I have." Fan Meinan nodded. "But let me tell you first, I can't guarantee that she will show up. Recently, the three major guilds have been very strict with her, and I've been implicated as well. I haven't seen her for a long time, and … how should I put it … I'm actually a little afraid of her. She's not an easy person to get along with."
"Anyway, let's go to the agreed place first."
Zhang Heng's strategy was simple. Right now, there were many speculations on the forum about the solution to the Dreamland of Death. The three major guilds must have some inside information that ordinary players didn't know about, but the only people who could really master the solution were those who once owned the Dreamland of Death.
Among them, the first owner of the Dreamland of Death was dead, and the only one left was the mysterious woman in sunglasses from the auction. According to Meinan Fan, the Dreamland of Death didn't stay in her hands for too long, but she was the only one Zhang Heng could find now.
"Do you need to change your clothes first?" Zhang Heng asked Fan Meinan.
"Do I need to? Aren't you very good at fighting?" Fan Meinan blinked.
"… No matter how good I am, it doesn't mean that I like to get into unnecessary trouble."
"Are you implying that my current appearance makes people want to commit crimes?" Fan Meinan said as she glanced at Han Lu in the driver's seat.
The latter, however, was completely unfazed.
"Well, then I'll just be an ugly duckling that no one loves. Wait for me for two minutes." Fan Meinan then turned and ran back to the KTV.
"Don't take it to heart," Zhang Heng said. "She always wants to see the world in chaos."
"Why would I? She is a very interesting child." Han Lu smiled and asked after a while, "Is she … also from your world?"
"Hmm?"
"You're talking about … the supernatural world beneath the ordinary world."
"Well, don't look at her like that. It's hard for ordinary people to take advantage of her."
Han Lu had a thoughtful look on her face. After a while, she said, "Is there any way to enter your world?"
"Believe me, you will want to enter this world." Fan Meinan returned and changed into a loose, unassuming outfit. She sat in the car and said, "This is the first time I've sat in a luxury car that costs more than a million yuan. I don't know where to put my butt."
"If you like it, this car is yours," Han Lu said. "We can sign a gift agreement first, and then wait for you to transfer the ownership."
Fan Meinan was a little surprised. "Huh? Why … just because I said something sarcastic to you? Are you going to kill me with money just to show your magnanimity? "
"Of course not. I heard from Zhang Heng that you know someone who can save me. It's never wrong to be generous to your savior."
"I can't guarantee that I can save you," Fan Meinan opened a bag of pistachios in the back seat. "Isn't it too early to thank me?"
"It's not early. If I die, this car will be even more meaningless to me."
"What should I do? I think I'm starting to like her now," Fan Meinan said to Zhang Heng.
