"In this position, the blood flow is three times that of normal conditions. In less than half an hour, all the blood in your body could be drained. The blood that flows out will cascade down to your forehead, allowing you to witness how you are being soaked in your own blood. How about it? Compared to your twisted desires, doesn't this way of dying suit your taste?"
"Mmm mmm—"
"Mmm—"
Unable to see his gaze or read the emotions behind his eyes, Yan Yan's lips curled into a cruel smile as he said, "If you want to live, it's simple. Just answer yes or no with a nod or shake of your head. If I'm satisfied, I'll let you go. If not, prepare to become a dried corpse!"
"Mmm—"
Ji Yang immediately nodded.
"Good. First question: Among those who sold information to you from my parents' company, besides Yan Siming, was there anyone else?"
Nod.
"Was it someone from Lou Yan?"
Nod.
The tall figure leaning against the wall showed a moment of shock upon hearing Lou Yan's name, and the killing intent that followed made Yan Yan glance at him with a sense of foreboding.
With his head lowered, half of his face hidden in shadow, his expression remained unclear.
Retracting his gaze, Yan Yan continued to ask, "Second question: Is the technology researched by the company Permanent Cryogenic Technology?"
A deeper terror flashed in Ji Yang's eyes. This secret, he could never reveal—otherwise, even if he survived, his life would be worse than death.
After a long silence without a response, Yan Yan sneered.
"Do you think you're in any better position now? If you don't answer, you'll die even faster!"
He nodded.
"Third question: Has half of the people in the Military Department already tried the Permanent Cryogenic Technology?"
He nodded again.
"Fourth question: Is Zero Point planning to go into lockdown within five years?"
He nodded vigorously.
"Fifth question: Is S District the last bastion?"
He shook his head.
No? Still unaware?
"Not so?"
He shook his head again.
"Don't know?"
He nodded.
Stalemate.
Little did she expect that the information from Ji Yang was so limited; it only confirmed some things from her past life, leaving her unable to uncover more.
In her previous life, the relentless pursuit in reality had kept her in a state of fear and confusion.
At that time, she had no idea how secretive the knowledge in her hands truly was. It wasn't until her death that Ji Yang's words finally made her understand what she really held.
It was the last chance for survival in the Five Major Districts.
It was the key to controlling the situation within the Military Department.
It was the focal point of contention among the families in Area A.
More importantly, it was humanity's final hope.
Zero Point, the intersection of all clues.
She had to dig up more information than she had in her past life.
Her questions were increasingly shocking, and by the end, Qin Huai's eyes were filled with gravity and coldness.
Though he knew that some individuals within the Military Department, beyond his control, were secretly plotting something, he never expected it to be such a sinister scheme. If it weren't for—
His complex gaze fell upon the Emaciated Figure who had her back turned to him.
How did she come to know these classified secrets?
The girl was shrouded in mystery.
There was a pause.
Then she remembered how the other party showed no signs of avoiding him.
The coldness in Qin Huai's eyes faded, replaced by genuine joy that filled her gaze, like the brilliance of the first snow under a clear sky, dazzling to the eye.
Her silence was, for Ji Yang, the silent footsteps of death approaching.
“Mm-mm—”
“What's all this noise? If you keep it up, I'll end you right now.”
The hoarse and rough voice made the shadow on the ground shrink back sharply.
“I'll ask one last question: Is my father a secret member of the Military Department?”
As a secret member, Ji Yang knew that the information revealed today could cost him his life a thousand times over. Yet, at this moment, all he wanted was to preserve this fleeting sense of safety.
So—
He nodded.
Qin Huai lifted the chair, positioning Ji Yang face up. The blinding light pierced his eyes, causing tears to well up from sheer physiological response, and his face was pale with terror from blood loss.
“Miss, are you really going to let him go?”
“Mm-mm—”
Watching Ji Yang struggle violently, Yan Yan's lips curled into a chilling arc as she twirled the thin blade at her fingertips. “Since we’ve decided to let him off this time, we can’t go back on our word—”
"Mm—"
Ji Yang nodded vigorously.
"But—" The girl bent down, looking into his increasingly dilated pupils, and cruelly said, "You can let him go, but while death can be avoided, living with the consequences is inescapable."
Letting him die would be too merciful. Just look at the fate of Yan Siming and Liu Yufeng; the best place for him would be D District Liu Ying Street.
The criminals in E Zone with their peculiar tastes would surely thank her for this.
"Break his hands and feet, cut out his tongue, and throw him to them for their enjoyment."
"Tsk—"
Qin Huai looked at the terrified man on the ground with pity. Judging by his face alone, the Ji family's genes were indeed impressive; she believed those people would treat this delicate "guest" well.
The gaze of the onlookers swept over Ji Yang's wrapped-up figure, lingering on certain areas beneath the blanket.
"Mm—"
Desperate struggles and expressions of fear froze upon seeing the newcomers.
"Boss, I'll take him away right now and guarantee the mission will be completed."
"Mm, remember to keep it quiet. Tell Viagra and Sister Fang that he is a 'priority' target."
"Understood."
After Ji Yang was taken away, Qin Huai approached the girl and asked,
"Are you comfortable?"
"Are you not comfortable?"
The hidden forces of the General Headquarters had been completely wiped out; wasn't that something to feel comfortable about?
Under her penetrating gaze, a faint blush appeared on the man's porcelain-like face. He then flashed a habitual smirk and said shamelessly,
"I'm only comfortable if you are."
"Let's go; the Patrol Team will be here soon."
As soon as they moved, her gaze suddenly fixed on a fresh bloodstain by the bed. The foot she had raised turned instantly, her expression tightening as she looked under the bed with a glint of sharpness in her eyes.
Following her line of sight, Qin Huai also spotted the bloodstain. His narrow Peach Blossom Eyes narrowed into a dangerous shape as he nodded to the girl beside him. They both slowly approached the bed.
One meter, half a meter.
With a swift motion, Qin Huai yanked up the bedsheet, his Laser Gun aimed directly at the space beneath the bed.
Yan Yan quickly pulled out a trembling figure. The moment she saw that face, surprise flickered across her features.
Cousins, or perhaps siblings; there was always some resemblance.
Strict Language, Yan Qingyue, Yan Yan, Yan Lang—the four of them were most alike in their eyes.
So, when Qin Huai saw the pair of eyes that were identical to those of the Cold Noodle Girl, he exclaimed in surprise, "Is it Yan Lang?"
Silence.
A long pause.
She nodded.
"What should we do with her?"
It was clear that this child was beyond saving.
Qin Huai looked coldly at the person who had completely lost her vitality, as if she were a rag doll being held by the girl.
"Take her away and throw her into the E Zone."
How cruel—
But he liked it.
Her crimson lips formed a seductive curve. (To be continued.)
