But Ma Xiaotong seemed to not hear Zhang Feng's voice either. She looked up pitifully at Zhang Feng:

"Brother Zhang Feng, this is our first meeting today...."

"You can help me like this.... I don't know what to say..."

"Brother Zhang Feng, I must... I must repay you...."

Zhang Feng listened to Ma Xiaotong's words, shook his head helplessly and said:

"It's not a big deal..... Actually, I'm helping myself too... Wait! What are you doing?!"

"No no no no no..... really? Why are you tying up your hair?!"

Sure enough, just after Ma Xiaotong finished her last sentence, Zhang Feng was only halfway through speaking when Ma Xiaotong unexpectedly pulled out a hair tie from who knows where and tied up her long hair.

And then....

"Hiss—" Zhang Feng suddenly gasped for air:

"Ma Xiaotong, calm down! You're cold... you're too cold!!"

"So cold—"

Zhang Feng's voice gradually faded away.

No one knew how much time had passed.

Lü Dong, unconscious under the pink lights, furrowed his brows slightly, then slowly opened his eyes.

The moment he opened his eyes, it seemed as though he had sobered up.

"Ah——"

A scream escaped from him like that of a newborn baby.

He quickly stood up, fled in a panic!

Not forgetting to tightly lock the room door after rushing out.

Standing in the corridor, clutching his chest and gasping for breath.

Looking pale, pupils fierce.

His complexion was very unpleasant, his pupils riddled with lingering fear.

Then he quickly patted himself all over.

Found out he wasn't dead and nothing was missing from his body, nor was he injured.

That alone made him feel a bit relieved.

But soon after, his brows knitted together:

"No, something's not right...."

"Wasn't Zhang Feng supposed to come find me? Where is he? Why is he gone?"

"And also..." his expression hardened a bit more:

"That corpse... she... she she she she..... did she grab my wrist?"

Talking to himself, he glanced down at his right wrist.

Spotless, nothing there.

Lü Dong stood in place, really wanting to open the door in front of him and check the situation.

But the fear of the unknown made him keep swallowing his saliva, dismissing all such thoughts.

"Could it be... was I dreaming just now?"

Yes, Lü Dong at this moment actually entertained this idea.

The reason was simple, because Zhang Feng was also missing.

Logically speaking, Zhang Feng should have been sent by Shen Hanshan to investigate him.

If he had already confessed voluntarily.

Then Zhang Feng should have arrested him on the spot.

But..... why didn't he get arrested, and just left?

This completely defied common sense!

"Is it possible that recently, I've been too tense and really had a nightmare?"

Lü Dong rubbed his slightly aching back of the head.

Retreated to his apartment, looking back every few steps.

Then wobbled into the bedroom.

As he approached his bed, for some reason, he suddenly felt his foot slip.

"Bang!" a thud, landing on the ground flat on his back.

"Damn it!"

Lü Dong cursed under his breath, supporting himself on the ground, and as soon as he tried to rise, his hand slipped again, causing him to fall face-down once more.

"What the hell..."

Lü Dong gritted his teeth, raised his hand:

"Where did this water come from? Who spilled it? Was it me?"

Not knowing if it was out of habit or what, he brought his hand to his nose to sniff it.

Instantly, a look of disgust crossed his face, pulling his hand away abruptly.

"What the hell is this smell?! Damn, in my room...."

"Wait a minute!"

All of a sudden, Lü Dong's gaze narrowed.

In his apartment, it should only be him.

But this thing clearly belonged to another person.

Then that person is...

"Hiss——"

Lü Dong drew a sharp breath:

"It wasn't a dream before! Zhang Feng definitely came here!!"

But immediately, he found himself puzzled:

"But now where is he..."

Before Lü Dong could completely express his doubts, a violent knocking at the door erupted.

This startled Lü Dong so much he nearly jumped to the ceiling.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Once certain someone was at the door, Lü Dong instantly cursed and shouted:

"Who is it, in the middle of the night, keeping people from sleeping?!"

"Boom!" an echoing crash.

The door to Lü Dong's apartment was violently forced open from the outside.

The loud sound completely drowned out Lü Dong's frightened yell.

Soon after, a horde of men dressed in black swarmed in.

And subdued Lü Dong to the ground on the spot.

"What are you doing?! What do you want?!"

Being restrained, Lü Dong struggled and roared.

"Let me go, don't you know who I am?"

The black-clothed men holding Lü Dong said nothing.

As if they were mechanically completing a task.

At that moment.

"Ring ring."

The phone that had fallen in the living room rang abruptly.

One of the black-clothed men actually picked up this phone, answered it, and put it to Lü Dong's ear.

This baffling move left Lü Dong perplexed, not knowing what was happening.

But the voice from the phone made Lü Dong's pupils freeze instantly:

"Old Lü.... long time no see, the last time we had tea together, it must have been seven years ago, right?"

"Shen..." Lü Dong's lips suddenly turned a bit purple:

"Shen..... Han... Shan..."

No doubt, the person calling Lü Dong was indeed Shen Hanshan, still in D City.

And these black-clothed men had been sent by Shen Hanshan to Rain City to capture Lü Dong.

Lü Dong now realized that all those experiences were not illusions.

That forensic scientist named Zhang Feng had indeed calculated the time accurately, just after he woke up, Shen Hanshan's people had arrived?

That forensic scientist...

That forensic scientist....

Lü Dong's pupils were now filled with blood streaks.

That forensic scientist just arrived in Rain City on the first day....

Seven years.

I have perfectly hidden for seven years!

On the very first day that forensic scientist came here, I got caught!!

"Wang Yongbo!!!!"

Even while listening to the phone, though Lü Dong was full of hatred towards Zhang Feng and Shen Hanshan.

He still let out this roar:

"Damn you!!!"

Indeed.

That bastard Wang Yongbo clearly said he'd keep a good track of Zhang Feng.

So why did Zhang Feng appear in his own house?

How could this be?

Could it be that Wang Yongbo had already betrayed him?!

Lü Dong even shouted into the phone:

"Shen Hanshan, how much did you pay Wang Yongbo?! So much that he'd risk his life to sell me out?!"

Hearing Lü Dong's roars, on the other end of the line, Shen Hanshan was bewildered:

"Wang Yongbo? Who is Wang Yongbo?"

"Are you freaking kidding me?!"

Shen Hanshan honestly wasn't kidding.

He truly didn't know who Wang Yongbo was.

And Wang Yongbo hadn't betrayed Lü Dong in the slightest.

At that moment, poor Wang Yongbo was silently crying in his blanket.

Nearby, loud snores resonated like thunder.

Wang Yongbo cautiously moved his body until he finally escaped the clutches of a middle-aged English teacher, Zhang Liling.

Without a second thought, even leaving his clothes behind, he had only one thought, which was:

"Escape!"

Flee from this terrifying witch of a woman!

Finally, he opened the door to his room and was greeted by fresh air in the corridor.

This feeling of being born anew made Wang Yongbo tear up!

But in the next moment.

A sleepy, coarse middle-aged female voice called from behind him:

"Sweetheart~"

"Your butt looks so good~"
