Chapter 119 How Do I Know?
Mo Ran also falls on the ground.
It seems that this room of the hotel is cursed.
Whoever stays here will end up lying on the ground.
Mo Ran turns over and watches the ceiling, muttering to himself with vacant eyes.
“Where is my sword? Give the sword back to me...”
Xia Lu frowns and then closes the door, watching the four people lying in the room.
When she came into the room, the only one standing there was Mo Ran.
Did he do this?
On second thought, she feels that it is impossible.
Even if Gao Ge, Shen Mo and Wang Zhe all had a stomachache, they would never have been defeated by Mo Ran with joint efforts.
Shen Mo and Wang Zhe are lying in the blood. She goes forward to take a look. Wang Zhe is completely dead while Shen Mo is at his last gasp. Without any hesitation, Xia Lu strikes a punch on his chest.
Crack.
The sound of bone fracture arises.
Now he is really dead.
She walks to the front of Gao Ge, reaching out her hand to grab his wrist. She finds that his pulse is stable and his body is not injured but the arm. Then she is finally relieved.
She carries Gao Ge up and throws him onto the bed. After that, she pulls Mo Ran up.
“Tell me. What happened?” Xia Lu says with cold eyes.
As if he didn’t hear Xia Lu, Mo Ran is still widening his eyes and muttering to himself.
“Where is my sword? Where is it...”
Xia Lu sighs, realizing that it is not likely to know what happened from Mo Ran.
She takes out her phone to make a call. She mentions the address of the hotel and the room number, and says, “Come here to clean up. A few people died here.”
After saying that, she hangs up the phone.
She is sure that the speaker on the other side of the phone understands what she means.
After all, the Xia Family has handled things like this for many times. They are quite familiar with it.
After hanging up the phone, she sits beside Gao Ge.
After quite a while, Mo Ran comes to his senses.
He suddenly sits up. His eyes turn red because of sorrow and despair but not anger.
He stares at Xia Lu with tears.
Xia Lu becomes unhappy.
Those who don’t know what happened may think she has done something to him.
“Please give my sword back to me.”
“I didn’t take it.” Xia Lu is furious, “I just came here. Are you blind? Can’t you see that?”
“My sword... Give the sword back to me. Otherwise, I can’t kill Liu Rui and Song Zhi. They are still alive... They must die!”
Xia Lu sighs.
Looking at Mo Ran who has lost his mind, Xia Lu feels like striking him away with a punch, but she can’t be that merciless. Thus, she says, “Now brief me on what happened before I came here and let me analyze where your sword is.”
Hearing what Xia Lu said, Mo Ran feels full of hope and then hastens to tell her about the fight between Gao Ge and Shen Mo.
After saying that, he can’t help staring at Gao Ge.
“It’s him! It must be him who stole my sword!”
Saying that, he is about to go at Gao Ge. Consequently, before he makes it, he is kicked away by Xia Lu.
“The room is just this big. Gao Ge doesn’t leave here so the sword must still be here. Keep searching.” Although Xia Lu is also aware that Mo Ran’s sword is good stuff, she has no interest in it.
Mo Ran immediately gets up and starts to search carefully on the ground.
Mo Ran must search every nook and corner, even under the carpet...
After a while, Xia Lu finally can’t hold in her annoyance.
“Do you even have to open the toilet tank?”
Mo Ran just ignores her and keeps searching. In the end, Xia Lu shouts angrily, “Stop it! Why are you twisting the bulb?”
Suddenly, someone knocks on the door.
“Go to get the door.” Xia Lu instructs Mo Ran naturally.
Without further thinking, Mo Ran gets up to open the door. A dozen of men walk in, instantly taking up the whole small room.
“Miss, all the people in this hotel are cleared up, including the stuff here.” The middle-aged man walks to Xia Lu’s front and says.
While saying that, he also takes a few glimpses at Gao Ge.
Xia Lu becomes displeased and seems to guess the man’s thought, saying directly, “You just need to do what I told you.”
The middle-aged man sighs and seems to feel a bit sorry, but he immediately orders the men who follow him into the room to carry the bodies. Besides, another two men start to mob the floor. And they also seem to bring some professional equipment, including the machine to eliminate the fingerprint...
This is a team.
The slogan of their work may be–We are not killers but porters of corpses.
“Find a car. We need to leave here.” Xia Lu says.
Someone brings a car key at once and asks, “Miss, do you need our help? Your friend is still in a coma.”
Xia Lu thinks about it and then shakes her head to reject the offer.
She stands up to carry Gao Ge up mannishly. As a cultivator, she is still strong enough.
“Follow me.” Xia Lu says to Mo Ran.
Like a soulless puppet, Mo Ran follows Xia Lu out of the hotel. They arrive at the garage and find a black car with the key.
Having thrown Gao Ge to the back seat, Xia Lu looks at Mo Ran, “Can you drive?”
“I have a driver’s license but I’ve never driven a car before...”
“Forget it.” Xia Lu decides to drive herself.
After getting out of the garage, Mo Ran asks, “Where are we going?”
“Of course we are not going to the kindergarten.” Xia Lu pauses and says, “The Liu’s villa.”
“Liu Rui’s home?” Mo Ran turns pale, “You want to hand me over to them?”
“I won’t let anyone kill you.” Xia Lu says impatiently, “What are you afraid of?”
Mo Ran can hardly calm down.
He has sweat on his head again, as if sitting on pins and needles.
They cruise along the road.
“It’s half an hour’s ride from here to the Liu’s villa. Within such half an hour, you can tell me about the enmity between you and Liu Rui.” Xia Lu says while holding the steering wheel.
Mo Ran bites his lip, asking, “What if I don’t?”
“It’s up to you, but it will affect your ending result after we arrive at the Liu’s villa.”
“Are you threatening me?”
“Yes.” Xia Lu says.
Mo Ran cracks a smile.
“Believe it or not, without my friend, you would have been dead.” Xia Lu says.
Mo Ran says with a sneer, “You two schemed to steal my treasure sword.”
Xia Lu doesn’t say anything.
She also wonders where Mo Ran’s sword is.
As if it just disappears.
Yet, Mo Ran searched for the sword everywhere in the room but ended with failure.
This is why she decided to leave the hotel. She knows that Gao Ge is quite interested in the sword and that even when he learnt about the task, he just believed subconsciously Mo Ran to be the one who sent him the weapon.
However, it remains a mystery where the weapon is.
“Whether we kill you or capture you, the task will be rendered done. Hence, if you were us, what would you do?” Xia Lu asks, “I feel that a dead person is simpler than a living one. After all, if you are still alive, we have to worry if you may escape. Right?”
historical
Mo Ran roars angrily, “So what? Just kill me if you dare!” Having said that, unexpectedly, he reaches out his arms to take the steering wheel.
Xia Lu snorts and hits him with a hand.
“Ah!”
Mo Ran screams while covering his nose.
“You fought with me before. Without the sword, do you think you can beat me?” Xia Lu still stares at the front without looking sideways.
Mo Ran feels so grieved that he even wants to cry.
This is the most terrifying woman he has ever seen...
“Man, don’t ever try to struggle. If she wants to kill you, she has done it.” A tired voice comes from the back seat.
Xia Lu takes a look through the inside rear-view mirror, saying, “Are you awake?”
Gao Ge sits up slowly and then pats his head, as if he wakes up with a hangover.
Mo Ran immediately turns around to look at him.
“Where is my sword?”
“How do I know?” Gao Ge says impatiently.
He doesn’t blush or his heart beats.
However, he is the only one who knows where the sword is.
