Chapter 90:
90: How Bad Is It?!
The car quickly turned into the other side of the road.
This was a ruined area.
The original shantytowns had been demolished. It was said that they planned to build a building or business district.
However, it was unknown whether the funds were not in place or whether the contractor was brainless.
It had been abandoned for more than a year. It hadn't even started construction yet, and it was so useless.
There was only a dirt road that was just enough for a car.
On both sides were demolished ruins.
There weren't any street lamps.
During the day, there were people who would occasionally walk here.
But at night, basically no one passed by, because the surroundings were all in ruins. It was weird, and wild cats and dogs liked to stay here.
"I didn't expect there to be such a place in the city. Zhou Xuan, have you considered buying a house? If you need it, I can help ask for you." In the car, Qin Xueqing asked casually.
After eating this meal, she felt her relationship with Zhou Xuan was much closer.
At the very least, they could be considered acquaintances.
"Not yet. The place I'm staying at is quite comfortable. It's very abrupt to suddenly live in a villa or something," Zhou Xuan smiled and replied.
The villa had its advantages.
However, this kind of small apartment naturally had its advantages as well.
The place was neither too big nor too small. It was just right. It felt very warm and nice when living there.
As for the villa, there was nothing inside. There were only Xu Mengqing and him. It was inevitable that they would feel empty.
In Zhou Xuan's eyes, there was no need to live in a villa after getting rich.
The two of them talked like this.
The car suddenly stopped.
The female bodyguard frowned as she looked ahead.
Under the bright lights of the car, there was a mess of steel bars on the road ahead, blocking the road.
"Chief Qin, Mr. Zhou, I don't think we can go there either," the bodyguard said.
“?” Zhou Xuan finally couldn't help feeling doubtful.
First, there was the inexplicable road construction warning sign on the main road.
Now, the road was blocked by steel bars.
It was too coincidental.
Zhou Xuan didn't believe in coincidence.
In addition, the faint sense of danger in his heart was still lingering.
Zhou Xuan felt that something might happen.
At this moment, a name suddenly appeared in Zhou Xuan's mind…
Wang Chen!
It had to be said that he was the person who was most likely to harm him.
In Zhou Xuan's opinion, it could only be Wang Chen..
"Let's get out of the car and take a look. Maybe we can move the reinforcement." Qin Xueqing let out an exclamation and opened the car door.
The female bodyguard, Zhou Xuan, and Xu Mengqing also got out of the car.
It was still quite a distance from Zhou Xuan's home.
It wasn't good for Zhou Xuan and Xu Mengqing to walk back.
The main road was under construction.
Now, the only way was to remove the reinforcement that was blocking the way.
The four of them got out of the car.
He was just about to think of a way to move the reinforcement that blocked the way, when ehind him, light and rhythmic footsteps could suddenly be heard.
In a place like this, the footsteps of others were very horrifying.
The four of them looked back at the same time.
Qin Xueqing and Xu Mengqing were frightened.
In the darkness behind them, a figure walked out unhurriedly.
Under the light of the car, the revealed figure was slender and tall.
The entire body was covered in a thin and loose black robe. She wore a mask and sunglasses. They couldn't tell who she was and could only roughly tell that she was a woman.
Such a dress, such a place.
Even Qin Xueqing and the others subconsciously became vigilant.
At this moment, Qian Yue's hoarse voice sounded.
"Other than Zhou Xuan, other people who don't want to die can leave."
After she finished speaking, between the sinister ruins, a chill spread.
It was the assassin nicknamed White Rose, Qian Yue.
She had prepared the warning signs for the construction of the road and the steel bars in front of the road.
She had investigated.
Zhou Xuan's residential area was a high-end area. The cameras in the corridor were complete and it wasn't easy to make a move.
This path was the best place to strike.
Once she killed Zhou Xuan, there was no need to be silent. They would not be able to find out who killed him, since she would not leave behind any clues.
After killing him, it would not affect her normal life.
This path without any monitoring was the best place to attack.
The only flaw was that there were three more unrelated people.
It made things a little troublesome.
The reason Qian Yue changed her voice and covered her face was because she did not want to kill everyone.
As long as Qin Xueqing and the others didn't see her face, she planned to let them go.
The assassins seemed to be cold and merciless representatives. However, they weren't that mysterious.
Qian Yue was a makeup artist in another city. She could be considered a white collar worker.
In normal life, Qian Yue was no different from an ordinary urban beauty.
She liked to eat delicious food and watch soap operas. She was just an ordinary person. In the eyes of her neighbors and friends, she was a very caring girl.
The reason she became an assassin was because of her parents' inheritance.
Her parents, who used to be assassins, didn't want their "ancestral skills" and connections to be cut off. After all, this was the only way for them to get in touch with some bigwigs. They might use it sometime.
They had only trained Qian Yue a little.
When she was young, other children went to cram schools, while Qian Yue studied joint skills and killing techniques.
Other children were playing during the summer holidays. Qian Yue was sent overseas. In name, she was attending a summer camp abroad. In fact, she was sent overseas for a short-term special training.
In short, other than working as an assassin every few years, she was no different from a normal person.
No one liked to live a life of constant fear.
It just so happened that there was no need to be an assassin in this peaceful era.
This was not the way to survive in this era.
Qian Yue's parents were the same. On the surface, they were just ordinary office workers.
Many other assassins were the same.
Of course, there were also people who enjoyed killing and lived in the dark forever, but they were only a few.
It was because of this that Qian Yue reminded them that she intended to let Qin Xueqing, Xu Mengqing, and the female bodyguard with a buzz cut.
In any case, killing these three people wasn't good for her. Only Zhou Xuan's head could be exchanged for money.
She would also be condemned by her conscience.
No matter what, she had grown up in a normal society.
But…
Things weren't going well.
"You are… People from the Rose Alliance!?” Not long after Qian Yue said that, Qin Xueqing revealed her identity.
Wang Chen could contact the assassin organization.
Qin Xueqing, who was the head of the Qin Clan, naturally understood this and could also contact the assassin organization.
But…
After she guessed this, Qin Xueqing felt a chill all over.
If that was the case, Zhou Xuan was currently in danger!
Qin Xueqing understood how terrifying these assassins were!
