Nevertheless, this âMr. Sunâ who had experienced various trials and tribulations before, recovered from the state of being shocked very quickly.
He walked towards the doorway quickly and switched off the light in the studyâif someone was monitoring him, they wouldnât be able to clearly see his current situation.
He didnât believe that someone would be able to âseeâ him on the other side of the world. That person must be hiding somewhere nearby his flat.
Collecting his thoughts quickly, âMr. Sunâ operated something using the laptop while talking him, âYou can even find me here. Very smart. Can you tell me who are you exactly?â
âIf customer plans to make a deal with us, youâll know by then.â
âMr. Sunâ raised his eyebrows, asking slowly, âYou said you wonât be receiving any money? Then how about some hard currency like gold?â
âAny form of currency will be denied as the transaction fee.â
Luo Qiu said in low voice, âBut be assured, the reason for me to contact you is to know about the so-called Micheal Club. But I feel a little bit disappointed. Mister seems to be one of the important personnel of the club. But from the conversation over the phone, you seem to be just an unimportant role under the code name âMr. Sunâ. You are more like a contact of the external affairs.â
The man breathed in deeply, âList out your requirements. Letâs get straight to the point.â
âWeâll surely make the dealâ¦â Luo Qiu put the cellphone near to his lips, âBut this is not the time to trade with you yet. Besides that, Iâm a curious person⦠So, let me see to what extent is the execution of your orders to unify all evil.â
The voice was completely cut off in the middle of this sentence.
The man narrowed his eyes, looking at the screen of his cellphone. At this moment, he received another phone callâThat was a reply from the order he had issued using the laptop.
âSir, âDemon Eyeâ has observed the surroundings but he didnât find any suspicious person. Besides, we can trace the origin of the telephone number⦠thereâs probably some skillful hackers on their team.â
âCanât find any suspicious person?â The man couldnât help blowing his fuse, âThen can you tell me how could he see the brand of the wine I was drinking?â
âMaybe⦠maybe they own the same ability as âMr. Demon Eyeââ¦â
âMoron!â
âSorry, sir⦠is there anything else we do for you next?â
âGet ready immediately. I want to leave this place.â The man stood up and commanded, âThis place is exposed. Destroy everything here after I leave⦠Oh, get ready for me first. I have to go out to the sea. Right now!â
âYes, sirâ¦â
The man closed his laptop, both of his hands pressing on it. But he still felt someone was watching him. It made his hair stood on end.
Yeah, the man felt an unprecedented horror.
The unknown⦠was too frightening!

âItâs youâ¦â
The moment he hung up the phone was the time Jessica opened her mouth to speak⦠She was looking at the club boss with a mixture of vigilance and fear.
She basically heard the second half of the conversation between the club boss and âMr. Sunââ because she had already woken up in the middle of the conversation.
Luo Qiu glanced at Jessica, returning the cellphone to her, âMichael Club didnât really hypnotize you effectively. That man tried to rouse the part where they had brainwashed you but he obviously failed.â
Jessica intended to recall her memory. She gritted her teeth and held the wall to stand up, âFor these few years being out on missions, I didnât always go back on time. As time went by, Iâve developed a resistance against my other self.â
It was probably on account of some other reason.
Luo Qiu didnât lay bare the truth. During the painful process of the hypnosis, there was a short period of time when she grabbed her collarâ it was the pendant of her necklace that she was grabbing.
Jessica looked at the weird boss suddenly. âIt seems that you know more about Michael Club compared to me.â
âWell, I only knew about that place recently.â Boss Luo didnât intend to beat around the bush, âThen I paid the price to gather some information.â
Jessica suddenly asked, âSince you know what the Michael Club has been doing and you have such a wonderful power, why do you still want to let this organization continue to exist?â
Luo Qiu replied calmly, âDear customer, are you probing our standpoint?â
Jessica breathed in deeply, âSince you have such a mysterious ability, you can make this world better, canât you?â
Luo Qiu shook his head, âGratuitous expense will never be our choice. Moreover, why do we have to wipe out Michael Club purely because of its existence that darkens the world and lets a lot of people indulge themselves in suffering?â
Jessica explained angrily, âAt least without themâ¦â
Luo Qiu interrupted her, âHave wars ever stopped throughout human history? How can you ensure that another Michael Club wonât exist again after this one disappears, right? You canât guarantee it, and we⦠donât have to guarantee it.â
Jessica sneered, âThe root of this cause is that you donât get enough benefit. You wonât act until you gained enough, will you? Personal profit before anything, youâre indeed a businessman!â
Luo Qiu revealed calmly, âYou donât have to infuriate us. Besides, like what youâve said, we are businessmen who seek nothing but profit. If you can afford the transaction fee, youâll definitely have the right to ask us to wipe out that club.â
Jessica faked a wry smile, âEven if I sacrifice all I have, it may not be enough to root out 1% of it!â
Luo Qiu didnât speak but stood there in silence. He was exceptionally quiet in the dark alley as if he had been blended into the darkness.
Jessica kept silent as well.
After some time, Jessica opened her mouth, âI want a deal.â
âPlease go ahead.â
Jessica spoke in a low voice, âMichael Club is heavily-guarded. They are unable to tolerate any betrayal. They are vicious and merciless ⦠I need to know if my mother is safe now.â
Jessica had to consider her next step, she was even worried that the people in the club werenât threatened⦠After all these years, she became aware that they are a group of madmen.
She couldnât understand their way of thinking.
Sacrificing 5 years of her lifespan as the price, Jessica got the answer from the club boss.
âIâm sorry. Dear customer, your mother had passed away 25 years ago.â
â¦
â¦
Luo Qiu said out an unbearable answer!
âImpossible!â Jessica roared, âThatâs impossible! I video-called with my mum several months ago! She was still alive at that time!â
Luo Qiu sighed, âActually, youâre an orphan. Your mother was gone since you were very young. And you were picked up by the club from the street. They started to hypnotize you since then. The âmotherâ in your mind is used to lull your will⦠well, sheâs an actress.â
âYouâre lying!â
Luo Qiu came to Jessica, touching her forehead softly with his finger. He added, âYour childhood memory is there, hidden deep in your brainâ¦Dear customer, you should be able to believe me if this is the case .â
The memory was suddenly evoked in Jessicaâs brain.

âDonât worry, mum. Iâll be an excellent believer. After my birthday, Iâll be sent outside to fight for our god! Iâll definitely fight for the chance to let you to live better!â

âMum⦠will I get to eat your apple pie tomorrow?â

âYeah! Mum!â

âMum, whatâs that place opposite the sea? I ⦠I donât know. I saw it in the video and videotape. Is there a lot of people over there too?â
âOf course, a place opposite the sea is also a very dangerous place. Remember, we can only live happily here.â
âOh, I see.â

âMum⦠mum, where are you⦠I, Iâm so scaredâ¦â
âDear, Iâm right over here! Can you hear me? Listen, use the dagger in your hand to kill that hunting dog. Itâs an embodiment of the demon. As the believers of our god, weâre obliged to kill it! Listen, sometimes we have to employ force in order to guard the paradise we are living in. We have no choice but to do that⦠Iâve made the apple pie for you, good girlâ¦â
However⦠she was still scared.
âMum, I donât want to kill the hunting dogâ¦â

âWhere⦠where is this place?â
âHere? This is the paradise. Thereâs no sadness or enmity in this place.â
âWho are you?â
âDarling, did you forget? Iâm your mumâ¦â
âMumâ¦â
âGood girl.â

âGet out of here, wimpy kid. Youâre so dirty. Donât stand in front of my fatherâs shop!â
âI⦠Iâm starvingâ¦â
âDo you want to eat? The bread that is sold here? If you can act as a dog and creep for two circles, Iâll give you the bread.â
âWoof⦠Woofâ¦â
âEat it! Little dog!â

âMama, I want to listen to the story of Cinderella!â
âOK, but after that you must go to bed.â
âYeah!â
âOnce upon a time, thereâs a hunter familyâ¦â

Jessica leaned against the wall, her body slid down slowly until she sat on the cold floor.
âWho⦠am I⦠doing this⦠forâ¦â
