The two snipers were about to leave the scene, Su Xiaocai released a tracking spider. The spider, about the size of a fingertip, had an environmental simulation feature, making it invisible.
They crawled onto the wall.
As the snipers exited the hallway, they swiftly jumped onto the cash-laden backpack.
Feeling something strange, they turned their heads, but saw no one. They glanced upward at the surveillance camera resting against a lamp post. Normally, these cameras would float around during the day, and no wrongdoers in the residential area could avoid their "patrol."
Today, however, they were resting by the lamp post, clearly rendered useless.
The two snipers, seeing no reason to worry, hefted their backpacks again and left quickly.
As they passed by Su Xiaocaiās car, they turned to look only to see Kaye in the front seat, head lowered, engrossed in his communicator.
In the back seat, Su Xiaocai pressed down Ji Li, the two hiding behind a seat, holding their breaths lightly.
Only when the snipers were far away did the two sit up again.
Ji Li rubbed his face, having been pressed into the back of the seat by Su Xiaocai, his face nearly flattened. This girl, she sure had strength.
"Can you be gentler with me next time?"
"I was very gentle." When sheās rough, she could press his face into the seat back, crushing his bones.
Ji Li felt suffocated, weak and helplessāwas it his fault?
Soon after, a voice came through the headphones again.
"Brother Yi, you asked me to withdraw money, who are you planning to deal with?"
"Your brotherās brother." The male voice was indifferent, as if killing someone was as simple as drinking water.
"Why... why would you want to do that? Iāve already decided to break ties with his family."
"Yes, you are cutting ties with him. But are you really willing to? Youāve liked him for so many years, on what grounds does he have to just break up with you."
"You donāt want to break up with him, so Iāll help you. If the target dies, heāll be sad and upset, this is your chance. Their family values emotions, take this opportunity to comfort him, get close, then continue the relationship."
"Thereās no need to deal with him, if found out, youāll end up in prison. Iām just feeling some injustice, but itās no big deal. You donāt have the Yi Family backing you anymore..."
The male voice interrupted the female voice, "No need to worry, his death now is beneficial to you, as long as the engagement isnāt broken, the future of both families will be in your hands."
"Brother Yi, I know you mean well, but promise me, donāt do this again."
After a long pause, the male voice softly said, "Alright."
"Thank you, I have to go, I used the excuse of delivering a new design to my father to see you, if I donāt leave soon, Iāll be discovered. Take care."
"Always speak up if you feel wronged. I canāt help financially for the time being, but I still have my old connections, theyāll help you somewhat."
"Okay, thank you, Iāll find ways to visit more often."
Su Xiaocai and Ji Li shivered slightly, "These two sound a bit ambiguous."
Kaye in the front seat was also curious about what Su Xiaocai heard, his expression mischievous, as if the headphones were revealing some unspeakable secret.
Driven by curiosity, Su Xiaocai sent the mechanical cat on a risky venture, stealthily crawling onto the balcony, poking out half its tiny head, revealing a scene.
Xue Huiyi and Yi Suilu were embracing, gazing deeply into each otherās eyes.
Su Xiaocai was shocked, "Arenāt they cousins?" Even if born of a mistress, their familial bloodline couldnāt be more than five degrees apart.
Xue Huiyi surely knew this, no matter how desperate, sheād understand playing at incest was a route straight to social ostracization, her reputation turned to ashes.
Just as Su Xiaocai hoped for more explosive revelations, Xue Huiyi pushed Yi Suilu away, "Iām leaving, be careful, change your residence."
"I understand, Iām of no use anymore."
"No, I wonāt allow you to think that way. Live well, wait for me to restore your status."
"Alright, Iāll certainly live well." Yi Suiluās voice was low but carried the affectionate tone of a young pup.
Su Xiaocai asked Ji Li, "Is this the legendary falsetto?"
"Yes, it is."
"Try a falsetto for me." Su Xiaocai thought Ji Liās falsetto must sound nice too.
"Little miss, shouldnāt we hide, sheās coming down?" Ji Li directly switched to authoritative female voice.
"Wow!" Su Xiaocai discovered a new world, "Thatās amazing, did you study in a voice acting class?"
Kaye cleared his throat, and with indistinguishable childās voice, said, "Itās actually quite simple, our dorm often played like this."
Then he switched to a crisp womanās voice, "Sheās coming."
Su Xiaocai: What kind of dorm environment plays with voice transformation like this?
