Chapter 151 Return
Qin Wan stared blankly at the spot where Zhou Ziming had "disappeared," clearly, this was the first time she had encountered such a situation.

She turned to look at Lu Jinzhao, wanting to ask what was wrong, before realizing that, in a sense, she was the "senior" and Lu Jinzhao was the "newcomer," and logically, she shouldn't know more than her.

But she subconsciously felt that Lu Jinzhao would find out.

A beat late, Qin Wan realized that this was probably due to the habits she had developed during the mission, along with a deep-seated trust forged in life-or-death crises.

She might need some time to cool down this unusual level of trust; otherwise, given the current situation, she'll believe whatever Lu Jinzhao says.

"Let's get on with what needs to be done first."

Lu Jinzhao didn't dwell on Zhou Ziming's matter for too long. He could think about it slowly after leaving the train, but there was something urgent at the moment.

She first spent the money she had saved to repair her wounds. After feeling the damaged parts gradually recover and her strength return, she put the bell back on Qin Wan, who was on the verge of death.

"Don't worry, it will be over soon."

Lu Jinzhao took out the skinning and deboning tools she always carried from her backpack.

To be honest, this scene is really too horrifying.

Qin Wan couldn't help but recall the scene she saw on the rooftop of the company building; at the time, she thought she had seen a ghost.

Now, I've become the one whose chest has been ripped open and whose ribs have been removed.

I must say, this experience was truly extraordinary.

Thanks to the bell, Qin Wan felt she wouldn't have been able to remain "conscious" enough to let Lu Jinchao finish all of this.

She moved quickly, looking like a skilled worker. Although Qin Wan didn't know why she was so proficient at skinning people and removing bones, as if she had practiced countless times, the fact that they were on a train gave her a lot of peace of mind.

"Alright, you can start repairing your body now."

As Lu Jinzhao spoke, seeing that Qin Wan's body was recovering rapidly, he decisively retrieved the bell.

Lu Jinzhao went to the handwashing station at the front of the carriage to wash the blood off her hands. Then, while Qin Wan was recovering, she took out the ticket and looked at it. The amount shown on it was 1700.

This is after deducting the cost of repairing the body.

Premium platforms are definitely more profitable.

Qin Wan's body was quickly repaired. She straightened her clothes, checked the time, and found that the train was about to arrive at the station.

"After I get off the bus, I will add your contact information through the group chat. Please remember to accept the request. If you need the pocket watch, please contact me anytime. The same goes for the lucky charm ceremony. It's all free."

Although she decided to minimize her meetings with Lu Jinzhao after returning to reality to calm herself down, Qin Wan was still very grateful for her performance in this mission, so she decided not to charge Lu Jinzhao any extra fees for changing her luck in the future!
"Thank you." Lu Jinzhao didn't stand on ceremony with her and nodded with a smile.

Qin Wan looked at Lu Jinzhao, whose tone and expression had returned to gentleness, but her mind kept replaying the image of Lu Jinzhao leaning over her with a cold face to remove her ribs, and the image of her holding her in the middle of two speeding cars at the last moment.

Despite the fact that their images should be completely separate, Qin Wan felt that they were not contradictory.

"Forget it, I can't keep thinking about it."

Qin Wan shook her head. She had just finished her mission with Lu Jinzhao, who had even saved her life. Now, no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't help but find charm in Lu Jinzhao's words and actions. Even his abnormal behavior seemed "cool" to her!
"By the way, can I ask you some questions?" Qin Wan had originally planned to stop talking to Lu Jinzhao for the time being, but upon hearing this, she subconsciously nodded: "Go ahead." After saying that, she regretted it inwardly: I should at least have asked what kind of questions they were!

What if you agree to something so readily without hesitation, but it turns out to be a very difficult problem?
But Lu Jinzhao probably wouldn't ask her any difficult questions, right? Lu Jinzhao has high emotional intelligence; he'll probably guess which questions are more sensitive.
Wait, stop thinking about it!

"I wanted to ask about Sang Yuanbo." Lu Jinzhao's question was indeed easy to answer.

"Oh, that businesswoman?" Qin Wan immediately understood her meaning: "She contacted you too, didn't she?"

"He is a trustworthy person, and so far there haven't been any major problems with his transactions."

"If you have any supernatural items you want to trade with her, you can rest assured to contact her. She has a top-level guarantee behind her, and she's not doing this alone."

It turned out to be the case.

"May I ask who it is?"

“It’s not just one,” Qin Wan explained. “Basically, all the top-tier experts in Yuncheng were involved.”

"Everyone wants to create a relatively good environment, and the fairness of the transactions must be guaranteed. If it's just a top-tier player who dies, then there's no guarantee of anything, right?"

"The top-tier individuals in Cloud City aren't just concerned with their own existence; in fact, almost every one of them manages a portion of the affairs."

"Moreover, there is the existence of a fortune teller, so no one can wrong anyone else."

"Don't worry."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jinzhao nodded and thanked Qin Wan again, but Qin Wan simply shook her head and said, "It's nothing, no need to thank me."

She didn't speak again, but suddenly, very strangely, she remembered the sheepskin.

If Yangpi were to appear at this moment, she would probably say: She considers you a friend, but you obviously don't.

It was used to satirize her as a heartless person.

However, sheepskin never appears on the train.

Is the sheepskin afraid of trains?
Probably yes.

While it can affect some lower-level platforms, it is clearly no match for trains.

After returning, Lu Jinzhao planned to find Sang Yuanbo as soon as possible to ask her if she had a way to open the iron box. Yangpi's covetousness for the contents of the box also made Lu Jinzhao curious about what was inside.
And Lin Lin, how is she?
Has that death platform come to an end?
Many things to do piled up in her heart like a small mountain, but Lu Jinzhao did not let this mountain weigh on her heart. Instead, she calmly put it aside and waited to solve it little by little.

The train soon arrived at the station, and after saying goodbye to Qin Wan, she got into a taxi to return to her apartment.

The driver was listening to the radio, which seemed to be telling a suspense story, a classic tale of a ghost bride in a mountain village. However, the somewhat blurry sound from the radio station added an extra layer of atmosphere to the story.

In the past, a well-told ghost story might have indeed made Lu Jinzhao feel a bit creepy, but now, she just listened calmly to this rather well-written horror novel, without feeling any ripples in her heart.

She even had time to think about what the taboos were for this bride as a ghost, and what her methods of killing were, if this were a platform.
Lost in thought, the taxi soon pulled up outside the residential area, and Lu Jinzhao got out.
