Zhou Wen knew that he was only a cat and had lost his strength. He definitely couldn't handle the current situation. Thankfully, he still had the ability to send messages. Previously, when he saw that Gu Dian's phone was placed at the cat feeding area, he contacted An Sheng and got him to rush over as soon as possible.
This matter couldn't be resolved with pure force. Even if he killed Lu Kaide, it would be useless. Otherwise, Gu Dian would have settled it himself and wouldn't have been threatened by Lu Kaide.
When Lu Kaide saw An Sheng, he immediately turned around and wanted to run. However, before he could take a few steps, An Sheng's dagger was already at his neck.
"What are you doing? I'm a student of the college, "Lu Kaide calmed down and asked.
An Sheng said indifferently, "I don't need to know who you are, but you're dead."
"Gu Dian, why aren't you saving me?" Lu Kaide shouted in Gu Dian's direction.
An Sheng said to Gu Dian unhurriedly, "Zhou Wen asked me to come over. He has already told me everything about you. He asked me to tell you to trust him and leave everything to me."
"Gu Dian, you should know what the consequences will be if I die, right?" Lu Kaide knew that Gu Dian was his only hope.
He had heard of An Sheng's name. How could he not know the famous An Sheng of the An family since he could come to Luoyang to carry out a mission?
Gu Dian hugged Zhou Wen and pondered for a moment before nodding slightly at An Sheng.
The corners of An Sheng's mouth curled up slightly as he revealed a smile. The dagger in his hand had already pressed into the skin of Lu Kaide's neck.
"Answer whatever I ask. I don't want to hear any nonsense," An Sheng said.
Lu Kaide opened his mouth to say something, but An Sheng continued, "If you waste my time, I don't mind using Memory Deprivation to obtain the information I want from your mind."
Lu Kaide's expression changed drastically as he hesitated as though he was considering a decision.
"Don't try to commit suicide. I didn't let you die. Even Hades can't take your life," An Sheng said indifferently.
"If I tell you everything, can you spare my life?" Lu Kaide said through gritted teeth.
"Sure," An Sheng answered.
"Swear." Lu Kaide had no other choice. He was already a piece of meat on the chopping block. He could only take a gamble. He did not want to die.
An Sheng's expression didn't change as he swore an oath. If he broke it, he would die a horrible death. Then, he asked Lu Kaide about Gu Dian.
As Gu Dian was beside him, Lu Kaide didn't seem to lie and explained everything clearly.
He had a recording of Gu Dian's conversation with him. Back then, Gu Dian had treated him as his only good friend, so he had said everything.
Lu Kaide did not give this recording to anyone. He only registered a few accounts online and set it to be automatically updated. If no one changed the automatic update time, the recording and the article he wrote would be sent out.
An Sheng didn't listen to the recording. He just deleted all the content.
"Where's the backup? Don't tell me you didn't, "An Sheng asked Lu Kaide after deleting it.
"In an ancient Greek book on my dormitory classmate's bookshelf. No one will read that book," Lu Kaide answered.
Following that, An Sheng asked about Lu Kaide's origins. He admitted that he was a field agent nurtured by the Special Inspector Bureau. He had entered Sunset College to monitor the An family and Sunset College's chancellor and tutors. Recently, he had received a mission to think of a way to get Zhou Wen back to headquarters, so he had used Gu Dian.
"I've told you everything. Can you let me go now?" Lu Kaide said after a long while.
"You did tell me everything, but how do I know if you're telling the truth?" An Sheng said calmly as he looked at Lu Kaide.
"What I said is true. At this point, there's no need for me to lie to you," Lu Kaide said.
"That might not be the case. This matter is very important. I have to verify it personally." As An Sheng spoke, a black flame appeared on his body. The flames were like ghosts as they floated towards Lu Kaide and drilled into his brain.
"Ah … You swore to let me live … Otherwise, you will die a horrible death …" Lu Kaide shouted in horror. He roughly guessed that An Sheng was going to deprive him of his soul and memories, but he struggled with all his might, but his body couldn't move no matter how hard he struggled.
"Before you came to Luoyang, you should have known that I have a nickname — Devil's Adjutant, right? Is there a devil who abides by the agreement? "An Sheng said to Lu Kaide with a smile.
"You … You can't do this to me … You can't …" Lu Kaide was alarmed and furious. His eyes were filled with despair, anger, and indignation.
The pain that went straight to his soul seemed to slice off his brain bit by bit. It made him want to scream crazily, but he couldn't make a sound when he opened his mouth.
An Sheng only looked at him coldly as the black flames on his body constantly seeped into his brain. Lu Kaide's eyes gradually lost focus.
When the devil-like flames drilled out of Lu Kaide's brain and returned to An Sheng's body, Lu Kaide had already become a cold corpse. Even in death, his face had a twisted expression.
An Sheng opened the foldable cloth bag he had brought and placed Lu Kaide's corpse inside. After slinging it over his shoulder, he said to Gu Dian, "In the future, other than Zhou Wen and me, no one else will know about you. Unfortunately, there's no way to silence Zhou Wen and me. This is the only way."
"Thank … Thank …" Gu Dian said the word somewhat awkwardly. He had never said such a word before.
"Don't say that word. You don't need to thank anyone because that person is your friend." With that said, An Sheng left with Lu Kaide's corpse.
"Friend?" Gu Dian's expression turned odd.
In the past, he might have believed that he had friends. Back then, he had been touched by Lu Kaide and treated him as a true friend. In the end, he was betrayed. From then on, he would rather be with cats than believe in humans, much less any friends.
Although he still didn't believe it, there was a slight change in his heart.
At the very least, Gu Dian believed that this matter had been resolved. In the future, he wouldn't need to be threatened to do things he didn't want to do.
"I'm … finally free …" Gu Dian snapped to his senses and raised the kitten in his arms as a smile appeared on his face.
From his point of view, this kitten had brought him luck, allowing him to finally be himself.
Gu Dian raised the kitten into the air and revealed a smile that came from the bottom of his heart. Although he was still as ferocious, it made people unable to control themselves from smiling with him. The kitten's face also revealed a smile.
At that moment, Gu Dian suddenly felt the kitten in his hand become heavier. Its body was also changing. In the blink of an eye, the kitten that Gu Dian had raised had turned into a living man.
Their eyes met, and the air seemed to freeze at that instant. Smiles also froze on Gu Dian and Zhou Wen's faces.
A gentle breeze blew, and Zhou Wen felt his body turn cold.
