Lin Xuanqi coughed lightly as if to dispel something, "Hmm."
However, the newly appeared room turned out to be a mourning hall, with a large black coffin placed in the center.
A familiar scene.
The difference was that the light had become dimmer, the lid of the large black coffin had fallen to the side, and the clothes inside had disappeared, as if hinting at something.
I heard rustling footsteps and faint laughter from behind.
Lin Xuanqi turned around, but all she could see was darkness and a chilling wind.
The girl took a deep breath, as if to comfort Cheng Fei, who was holding her hand, "It must be a deliberately set-up loop room. It will end after you go through it once more."
“That makes sense.” Cheng Fei nodded.
Walking forward, there are the same familiar earthen houses, long corridors, and rooms covered with white cloth.
Footsteps echoed from behind the pitch-black darkness, as if something was chasing them, forcing them to quicken their pace unconsciously.
People are instinctively uneasy in dark and unfamiliar environments. The moment they saw the light outside, the two of them held hands and walked out at lightning speed.
"It's good that these two didn't cry from fright."
"She seems to have been startled too; the pretty girl's face turned pale, haha."
"Are you blind? She's naturally fair-skinned."
The tourists in line watched the spectacle as usual.
Back in the bustling, spacious outside world, Lin Xuanqi casually let go of Cheng Fei, wiped the sweat from her palms with his clothes, glanced at him, and said with a hint of sarcasm, "You're such a coward, scared like this."
"Who's the one who got scared?" Cheng Fei leaned forward, hands in his pockets, staring into her eyes.
Lin Xuanqi's lips twitched, she lowered her head and gritted her teeth, then suddenly pinched Cheng Fei's waist hard.
"Hiss... What are you doing?"
"You seem to be tired of living."
"Xuanqi, I was wrong. Let's go over there and buy some milk tea. It'll be hot and warm us up. It was too cold inside."
"You're trying to crush me to death in this crowd?"
"I'll buy it for you. You sit here and wait a bit. What would you like to drink?"
"You choose for yourself, and you know the consequences of making the wrong choice."
"Then I'll buy you a cup of matcha milk green tea."
I don't drink green tea.
"understood."
A minor conflict seemed to have broken out in front of the bubble tea shop, with a young man and a punk youth arguing, each followed by a girl.
What does it mean when your girlfriend spills milk tea on my girlfriend?
"I already said it wasn't intentional, someone pushed me just now."
"Don't try to shift the blame onto me, pay up!"
"If you want compensation, go find that person to compensate you!"
The already crowded store entrance became congested, with many people abandoning their milk tea purchases to focus on watching.
Cheng Fei squeezed through the crowd, resolutely bought two cups of milk tea, and returned the way he came.
Lin Xuanqi sat on a bench, one leg crossed, arms crossed in front of her chest, eyes closed, resting.
For some reason, there seemed to be a repulsive force field around the girl in the crowded park. All the other benches were full of people, and no one squeezed in with Lin Xuanqi.
Cheng Fei walked towards her with the milk tea in his hand.
A disheveled man with his hands in his pockets brushed against the boy and quickly walked past him.
The man, wearing a gray woolen hat and with bloodshot eyes, took two steps, stopped, and pulled a long object wrapped with black tape from his pocket, pointing it forward.
Cheng Fei felt that the thing looked familiar.
Some kind of homemade short gun.
The target was... Lin Xuanqi.
For a fleeting moment, Cheng Fei was happy.
It was such a bad coincidence that someone actually tried to assassinate Lin Xuanqi.
It's a bit of a shame that he didn't have to lift a finger, but it's truly a blessing in disguise.
Without any hesitation, the man pulled the trigger under Cheng Fei's expectant gaze.
However, there was no response; it seemed the trigger was stuck. He quickly adjusted it and aimed at Lin Xuanqi again.
At this moment, Cheng Fei frowned.
As luck would have it, he invited Lin Xuanqi to the amusement park, and as luck would have it, Lin Xuanqi was assassinated.
From this perspective, he seems to be an accomplice.
If anything were to happen to Lin Xuanqi today, he would be in big trouble immediately.
The boy changed his mind.
Lin Xuanqi must die, but not today.
In a flash, a cup of still-hot milk tea flew into the back of the man's neck, and Cheng Fei rushed over and grabbed his hand.
The moment the gun was forced to turn into the sky, it fired, and choking smoke billowed out. Cheng Fei and the man struggled for control of the pistol in the smoke.
The tourists around were completely unaware of the danger, watching all this in amazement. Some even excitedly took out their phones to take pictures, as if they were treating it as some kind of entertainment.
An uncle who was playing on his phone not far from Lin Xuanqi, a couple holding hands, and a balloon vendor suddenly dropped what they were doing and rushed over to surround the girl.
A girl dressed like a 19th-century detective, wearing a deerstalker hat, rushed towards Cheng Fei and the man who were locked in a stalemate. She kicked the pistol away with a sharp high kick, followed by a whip kick that slammed into the man's chest.
Cheng Fei was almost kicked, feeling an exaggerated gust of wind.
The man groaned and fell to the ground, whereupon he was immediately pinned down by a group of well-dressed but differently trained men.
They were all Lin Xuanqi's bodyguards; such a large group of people almost got assassinated by the man.
Cheng Fei recognized Ye Shuang as the girl wearing a deerstalker hat who stepped on a homemade pistol on the ground.
When she met Cheng Fei's gaze, the girl narrowed her eyes coldly.
A van with completely black windows honked its horn and pushed through the crowd, stopping a short distance away.
"Situation confirmed!"
"It's safe, you can go!"
"Miss, this way!"
"Protect the young lady!"
Lin Xuanqi's bodyguards, dressed in various styles, communicated loudly, maintaining a human wall around her as they moved towards the van.
The girl in the human wall showed no fear, walking towards the van with her head held high and expressionless. A trickle of bright red liquid was flowing down her ear, indicating that she was still injured.
Ye Shuang casually tossed her hat aside and jogged after him.
Cheng Fei wanted to follow closely behind, but was stopped by the bodyguards.
Some of the bodyguards did not get on the vehicle, but instead walked alongside the van on both sides to help disperse the crowd and clear a path.
More than ten minutes later, another van arrived and took away the man who was tied up, as well as Cheng Fei and the other bodyguards.
Many people chased after it and recorded the video until the van drove onto a road where tourists were not allowed.
……
69. Cheng Fei couldn't understand it.
In a large room at a tourist hotel near the amusement park, which had been cleared out, the atmosphere was somber.
Lin Xuanqi, sitting on the sofa, crossed one leg and lazily yawned toward the ceiling, her bomber jacket draped over her shoulders.
Several nurses surrounded the girl, using a variety of instruments to examine her.
Men in black were stationed at the room's entrances, exits, and windows.
Cheng Fei sat in a chair some distance from Lin Xuanqi, peering towards the girl.
Lin Xuanqi appeared to be fine, but her complexion was not good.
Her ear was originally wrapped tightly in gauze, like One-Ear from the TV series Black Cat Detective, but the girl made a fuss about it, saying, "It's just a scratch, I've seen all sorts of things," and then she tore off the gauze and put on a band-aid instead.
Cheng Fei thought for a moment and stepped forward, "Xuanqi, are you alright?"
Two bodyguards reached out to stop him from getting closer.
Lin Xuanqi glanced at him but didn't say anything.
After a while, Ye Shuang, who had left earlier, quickly walked in, leaned down and whispered in Lin Xuanqi's ear.
Cheng Fei vaguely heard something like "they were caught at the train station".
"Bring him to see me." The girl on the sofa spoke in a tone that revealed neither joy nor anger.
Soon, a tall young man wearing a shirt and jeans with his hands tied behind his back was brought in front of Lin Xuanqi and forced to kneel on the ground.
Cheng Fei recognized Song Wu.
"Give me a reason," Lin Xuanqi said, looking down at the young man with a gloomy face.
"Is it enough to say this about money?" Song Wu asked, head bowed.
"How much do you want? I don't have enough to spend."
“My mother is sick, and they came to me. I had no choice.”
When did this happen?
About three months ago.
"Heh, you really have patience." The girl's cold laugh contained murderous intent.
Song Wu's expression was numb. "I've told you everything. I just beg you not to hurt my mother."
Lin Xuanqi exhaled, closed her eyes, and waved her hand.
Song Wu was taken away. As he passed by Cheng Fei, Cheng Fei looked at his lifeless face, but Song Wu did not look at Cheng Fei.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, this is likely the last time we'll see Song Wu.
Lin Xuanqi glanced at Cheng Fei and waved to Ye Shuang.
The latter leaned close to her ear again and whispered something.
After Ye Shuang stepped back, Lin Xuanqi waved to Cheng Fei again.
"Give him one million." The girl turned her head to Ye Shuang and said, then crossed her arms and looked at Cheng Fei with a cold smile. "Well done, this is your reward."
"I'm so sorry."
"And a breakup fee," the girl added, staring at him.
"Break up?" Cheng Fei looked at her with surprise and doubt. "Why?"
"Being with you was just for fun, I told you that from the beginning, didn't I?" Lin Xuanqi rested her chin on her hand and turned her face away.
"I was quite happy at the beginning of today—"
"That's your misconception. I've never felt happy going to an amusement park. Today was just a ploy to lure the snake out of its hole," the girl interrupted him.
“So disappear now.” Her tone was impatient and weary.
"You no longer doubt me?"
Lin Xuanqi chuckled, seemingly neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
"So I'm really leaving?"
