Chapter 102: Forbidden Item ACE-017

Zhang Tianzhen gave Hu Xiaoniu a nervous look, but Hu Xiaoniu showed no intention to retreat, just stubbornly looking at the girl in front of him.

The time travelers hired by the Wang Family started approaching, and the atmosphere intensified.

But Hu Xiaoniu still did not retreat.

Wang Yun turned as if it seemed a little unbearable, but she finally whispered to Hu Xiaoniu, "I'll give you one last chance. We were all friends before. Don't force me."

Hu Xiaoniu said slowly, "Actually, you are just a selfish person, right? Whether it was back when you betrayed us or want to kill us now, you are just making excuses for yourself to cover up your hypocrisy. I can retreat today, but I want to tell you with my actions that if I were the first to wake up and be interrogated that day, I would not have given in. You got a lot of your men here, and we will prove it with facts."

Hu Xiaoniu continued "I really wanted to back away, but for the past two days, every time I fell asleep, I dreamed of our friends from Kun Lun shouting to tell us to leave. I dreamed that our friend was struggling beside the door, watching us leave one by one. It was only after the last of us left before he closed his eyes while smiling. I, Hu Xiaoniu, am not particularly strong-willed, but if I retreat today, I’m afraid I won’t be able to fall asleep in peace in the future!”

Wang Yun said softly, "You had your chance. Kill them."

But before anyone could react, strange footsteps suddenly sounded outside of the small alley.

The footsteps went from far to near. Sometimes they seemed to be on the left, but the next step would be from the right, and even at a certain moment, everyone felt that the footsteps were behind them.

When they turned around, however, they didn't see anyone there.

Gradually, a figure at the end of the alley started becoming clearer.

A man in his thirties came to them as if there were no one around. He calmly looked around at the tense atmosphere and said softly to Wang Yun, "You're Wang Yun, right? Easier to find than I expected."

Wang Yun was a little stunned, "Who are you?"

The man was wearing a black coat on the outside but had a delicate suit inside. A retro pocket watch was hanging on his coat, looking very out of place from the cyber era. His slightly long hair was combed behind his head and tied into a small bun.

A pair of black leather gloves were on his hands, and when his fingers moved, the surface of the leather would make a crunching sound.

"Me?" The man thought for a while and said, "It's been a while since I was asked that question. Well, let me introduce myself. I'm Li Dongze from the Heng Group."

As he spoke, there were countless footsteps coming from along the alley. It was as if the entire alley was surrounded.

Li Dongze stood in the middle of the small path as if everything was revolving around him.

Wang Yun exclaimed in a low voice, "Li Dongze of the Heng Group?"

"This is more of a normal reaction," said Li Dongze, "Boss wants me to ask you a question. Who is behind these kidnappings? Think well before you answer. I have gotten an answer today."

Wang Yun was a little shocked. She said, "I truly don't know who the person is. The day after we got knocked out in Jiang Xue's house, I found a letter in my bag that had a devil pattern post stamp on it. The letter said that he would contact me. I was scared at that time because I didn't even know when the letter got into my bag. I knew it wouldn't take much for a powerful man like him to kill me!"

"Got it. That's Forbidden Item ACE-017." Li Dongze nodded.

Wang Yun asked weakly, "Do you have anything else here?"

Li Dongze nodded calmly, "Oh, I'm also here to kill you."

Wang Yun's expression started changing slowly, like a plate of paint spilled on the ground.

"What did I do wrong!" She suddenly asked hysterically, "Why are you all trying to kill me!?"

Li Dongze thought for a while and said, "I don't know either. Boss only instructed me to kill you, and I didn't ask why."

After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and balled it into a fist.

The next moment, Wang Yun felt that the air around her was sucked away as if she entered a completely vacuum environment. Under the inexplicable traction, her blood vessels burst one by one under her skin.

Simple.

Direct.

…

At the same time, Li Shutong stared at Qing Chen and said, "Done. The favor that I owe you is repaid. Li Dongze should have killed that mole for you by now."

Qing Chen was a little surprised, "Hold up, teacher. Are you saying that Li Dongze killed her himself?"

In his impression, Li Dongze was a person with a very high status in the world. After all, he was a person who could directly book a table in the Sunlight Pavilion Restaurant. Just killing Wang Yun shouldn't require him to go there personally.

Lin Xiaoxiao said cheerfully, "Li Dongze was the closest person to Boss. Anyone that Boss wants to be killed, he would do it himself. He takes every order seriously and was thankful for what Boss had done for him."

A few minutes later, Lin Xiaoxiao received a message on his e-reader: "ACE-017".

"You can receive information from the outside?" asked Qing Chen.

"Oh, I'm responsible for helping Boss to keep in contact with the outside world," said Lin Xiaoxiao happily, "It seems like the person behind the scenes was contacting Wang Yun through ACE-017. This is a problem solved. Looks like this person got some skills, or else he wouldn't have gotten a Forbidden Item so quickly."

"What is ACE-017? A name for the Forbidden Item? What does it do?" asked Qing Chen.

"Yeah, Forbidden Item ACE-017 is also called the Devil Post Stamp," said Lin Xiaoxiao, "If one got it and fed it 1600CC [1 CC(cubic centimeter) = 1mL] of blood, it would parasitize in the host's heart and identify the person as host for the next 24 hours. During that time, the host could not have any blood entering from outside, and when the host's blood is dripped onto an envelope, the blood would form a post stamp with a devil pattern printed on it. Then, the letter could be delivered anywhere you'd like. However, it seems like there are some limitations to where the letter could be delivered, and one could write at most one sentence."

Qing Chen was stunned by the requirements. After a normal human lost around 800CC of blood, the person would appear pale, have could sweat, and cold hands and feet. Losing more than 1500CC of blood would cause insufficiency of cerebral blood supply.

This could be deadly.

That also meant that the owner of the Devil Post Stamp was gambling with his life.

Lin Xiaoxiao seemed to have noticed what Qing Chen was thinking, so he said, "It was said that the pattern on the post stamp would change. If someone couldn't survive for 24 hours, the devil pattern on the stamp would look much like the former host's. Some would say that the person's soul was taken away by the stamp."

Ye Wan nodded, "This Forbidden Item was in the hands of the 4th President. Later when he got assassinated in his later years, the stamp also disappeared."

Qing Chen was starting to think that Wang Yun betraying them might have been largely caused by the stamp.

But that was not a valid reason to be forgiven.

"Does that stamp have any other functions?" asked Qing Chen, "Like arousing the recipient's evil thoughts or the dark side?"

"What are you thinking?" Lin Xiaoxiao denied, "I don't know, and I've never seen the item. However, most Forbidden Items only have one ability. The Devil Post Stamp probably only has the function of sending letters. Only very few Forbidden Items have more than one functions."

"Like which ones?" asked Qing Chen curiously.

"Like… the ACE-005 that Guo Huchan was finding," said Lin Xiaoxiao as he winked at Qing Chen.
