Chapter 1028: Overlooking the Abyss (Part )

When the announcement of the train's arrival was heard, Zhou Yu was suddenly awakened from his sleep.

The scenery outside the window was constantly passing by, having long since changed from a series of mountains to a desolate wilderness. Beyond the horizon, a purple color close to madder red was gradually rising, a scene that was about to end at night.

After realizing where he was, he immediately turned around to look for his travel companion. Without much effort, he soon found Li Li sitting on a chair next to him, reading something on her phone. She was looking very intently, and judging by the light of the screen reflected on her face, she seemed to be reading a text with black words on a white background.

Zhou Yu slowly sat up from the bed, and the thin blanket covering him slipped off. After hearing this movement, Li Li put down his phone and looked towards him.

"How was your rest?" she said. "Generally speaking, people only need ninety minutes of effective sleep, but that is often difficult to achieve quickly. Considering your special situation, I think four hours of sleep is not enough to completely relieve fatigue."

It was just as she said. Zhou Yu still felt a little dazed when he woke up. Before falling asleep, he just felt stiff all over, but now he really felt tired.

"Didn't anything happen after I fell asleep?" he asked, massaging a few acupuncture points on his head.

"Everything was calm," Li Li replied, "except for the time you woke up in the middle of the night, which lasted about six seconds. After I was sure that it was not your consciousness, I used a little hypnotic spray. It usually allows people to sleep soundly for six to seven hours, but you woke up in only about half of the time. This surprised me greatly at your resistance to drugs, and I must remind you that no matter how mild the drug is, abuse will be harmful and useless, sir."

Zhou Yu evasively asked, "Do you carry hypnotic spray with you?"

"For a person who is not good at fighting, it is much more useful than a knife. And as long as it is packaged well, the probability of it passing security inspection is undoubtedly much better than that of a gun."

Li Li took out a small glass bottle from her coat pocket. It looked like an ordinary portable perfume for women. She shook the transparent solution in the bottle and then put it back into her pocket.

"It's really convenient. I wish I had a bottle too."

"I think your eyes are enough to solve most problems that require spray," Li Li said calmly.

"That's not necessarily true. At least next time when I need to get out of trouble, I won't have to put sleeping pills in my food. I can just spray the person who's in the way to the floor."

Although Zhou Yu said this, he didn't take it seriously. He quickly shifted his attention elsewhere. He first took off his gloves to check, then slightly unbuttoned his shirt and examined the gunshot wound on his abdomen.

Even he himself couldn't figure out the reason. Usually, a serious injury that would have left a person bedridden for ten days or half a month had healed to a fairly optimistic level in just one day and one night. Although there was still time for the wound to heal, there were no sequelae such as pus and inflammation after the operation, and the pain from the wound was very mild compared to the injury.

This can be said to be the most perfect recovery situation. Even for a young man with a strong physique, his recovery speed will definitely not be faster than his current speed.

Zhou Yu was satisfied with this, but he also became increasingly worried in his heart. This was not a good sign, his intuition whispered to him.

With mixed feelings, he heard the arrival announcement on the radio. Soon after, the familiar city scenery appeared outside the window.

When the two walked out of the platform, Zhou Yu looked up at the time on the bulletin board. The time there showed 4:30 in the morning, which was not much different from Li Li's estimate.

After exiting the subway station, a familiar van was quietly parked across the street. Konoge was sitting on the hood of the van, a glowing cigarette butt in his mouth.

"How was the trip, boss?" he greeted as the two men approached.

"It's smooth sailing." Li Li said, "I think Mr. Zhou Yu has seen enough tonight."

Little Kudzu blew out a beautiful smoke ring: "You know, I've always been curious about what you saw outside."

"And I have answered you, Mr. Konoge," Li Li replied, "I have nothing to say about this matter."

"You won't even let me go over and take a look myself." "This is for the safety of the employees. I'm sure that once you get on that train, your life will end and there is no way back."

"That makes sense. Because you are the only one in the world who is chosen by God, the favorite of God. You are invulnerable to swords and guns, and bullets cannot hit you. Even if you step into the enemy's defense area, the mines will automatically move out of the way for you."

"That's right," Li Li said gracefully, "and besides, I'm very wealthy."

Zhou Yu stared at the two of them expressionlessly. Perhaps because of his gaze, Xiao Ye Ge did not continue to talk back, but said: "I repaired six, boss, they were all minor problems with the wiring. But one was damaged by a bird, it is completely unsalvageable, you have to find another place to hide it."

Li Li didn't seem to be distressed. She nodded and said, "I'll reconsider it."

"There's one more thing you need to know, boss." Little Kudzu continued, "There was a big commotion in the city center just now. A girl jumped off a building and committed suicide. She was unlucky and hit the railing on the ground floor. Her whole body... you know."

Xiao Ye Ge stretched out his hands and made a gesture of breaking an object in two. Li Li waved his hands silently, indicating that he didn't need to continue.

“Have you collected any specific information?”

"Not yet. Even the police cars probably haven't arrived yet. If you go quickly, you might be able to see the body."

Li Li’s answer was to help Zhou Yu get into the car.

"ASAP."

Xiao Ye Ge stamped out his cigarette and sat in the driver's seat. Before Zhou Yu could react, he suddenly felt a strong force throwing him back against the back of the chair. Li Li, who was standing next to him, reached out and cushioned the back of his head in time, keeping his cervical spine intact.

"You may not often have the opportunity to experience this fact, Mr. Zhou Yu." She said calmly, "Yes, the speed of a van can reach more than 150 kilometers per hour."

Zhou Yu stared at the house approaching rapidly. He used his relatively flexible left hand to hold the car door switch and replied, "You should tell the traffic police this."

"Mr. Ono Kudzu has considered that situation and he is also deeply worried about it." Li Li said, "So he modified the car's upper speed limit to 200 km/h, so as to avoid verbal communication with the respectable traffic police when necessary - otherwise why would this car use a fake license plate and one-way film?"

Zhou Yu really wanted to jump out of the car, but on the one hand, he knew that his legs and feet were not capable of extreme sports. On the other hand, jumping out of a car traveling at 100 hours per hour was actually not much different from jumping off a building.

Fortunately, when their car approached the main road, other vehicles and pedestrians began to appear. Ono Kudzu had to slow down and blend in with the taxis and trucks running on the lanes in the early morning.

Before long, a group of tall buildings appeared before their eyes. Although it was still early in the morning, noisy voices and shrill alarms could still be heard from the silent night.

Ono Kudzu stopped the car by the roadside and made an inviting gesture to the people behind him.

“She fell right in front of a truck and the driver didn’t brake, and now that stretch of road is a mess,” he said. “I don’t want to wash the tires again.”

Li Li got out of the car without comment. The three of them walked towards the place where the voices came from, and after turning a street, they saw a police car with flashing lights at the end.

The road ahead of the wheels was covered with a thin layer of red paint with a hint of pink, which stretched straight out along the road.

At the end of the almost rose-red track, a long black hair was like a curved tip drawn by an ink pen, quietly engraved on the ground.
