Chapter 4, Do you want to die? Do you not want to?
Once again, there was a soft sound of "pa," but this time, Yan Mo was disappointed to find that the guy at the front had clearly been prepared. He blocked the steel ball with his arm. To say there was no hint of panic would be absolutely false; upon seeing the flying figure suddenly rush towards him, Yan Mo couldn't help but shudder slightly. However, he quickly raised his left hand to meet the approaching hand.
Hiding in the dark corner around the bend, Yan Mo felt that there was no place more suitable for an ambush than here. As a cacophony of footsteps approached, the guests he had been waiting for finally came into view, gliding effortlessly on their scooters, which was certainly much easier than running. Perhaps it was also due to the fact that those pursuers had long been drained of their strength by indulgence in wine and pleasure, making each of them appear out of breath at this moment
I myself have not yet decided where to go! I just want to wander around casually, to relax freely, and perhaps buy a few things, said Lori
As he spoke, he raised his leg and kicked fiercely towards the flying figure on the other side. This time, the impact struck the shin bone directly. Although there was still no sound of a bone breaking, a trickle of red began to seep out from the pant leg.
"What is going on?" Luo Zengming asked in confusion.
Hearing such a clichéd remark, Loli felt as if she were about to faint: "If you dare to use my mouth to say such things, I will definitely not let you off! Besides, I have no interest in explaining these matters to an idiot that you could never understand."
Leisurely resting on the desk, Mrs. Luo gently clicked the mouse. Perhaps due to her being a woman, she had a considerable immunity to those stimulating videos, and that video was easily deleted.
He suddenly thought that the appearance of this girl here was already quite strange, but more importantly, he recalled that it was Yuan Gonglao who had led him here to commit suicide. Zhu Bowen firmly believed in the art of fortune-telling and naturally understood the concept that the secrets of heaven must not be revealed. He also knew that those who had already glimpsed these secrets but dared not easily disclose them sometimes used subtle hints to provide guidance.
Isn't that one of the two sons of the old man who just passed away
"How is this possible? If you say you are getting old, doesn't that mean I am getting old too? Mr. Luo, perhaps you are feeling a bit tired. I know that there have been constant matters at home recently, so it is quite normal to feel a lack of energy," Miti said with a smile.
The pace of life is now too fast, and people age quickly. Haven't American scientists said so? For people today, the most suitable retirement age is between 40 and 45. Unfortunately, I still have a mortgage and need to send my son to college, so even if I want to take a break, I cannot. Sigh
It is truly difficult to understand why so much money should be donated to a charitable foundation. Do you have any idea how much trouble my family and I have encountered because of this money? The two sons of that old man have already filed a lawsuit in court; what if we lose the case? Will you cover this amount?
"Can you discern whether there are any other minions among those who are approaching here?" he inquired at the end of his statement
"There are many ways to commit suicide; why choose the most painful method, which also leaves the most unsightly appearance after death? Moreover, perhaps we could strike a deal: you could die peacefully without any pain, while I would obtain your body," said Lori.
There is no doubt that the little girl before him is certainly not an ordinary person. Although it is unclear whether she is a deity, a ghost, a fairy, or a demon, it is highly likely that his opportunity lies with her. With this thought in mind, Zhu Bowen hurriedly attempted to stand up, but the swaying of his body caused him to suddenly lose his footing. "Help! I don't want to die! I don't want to die!" Gripping the railing tightly with both hands, Zhu Bowen shouted desperately.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to ask if you could make me a cup of coffee, a bit stronger, with less sugar and no milk," Luo Zengming said. Back in the office, he gently touched his cheek, as if he indeed had a few more wrinkles on his face.
What truly concerns me is why she wants to learn to knit sweaters. Who is she planning to knit them for? Mrs. Luo pondered and said
I am certainly not speaking nonsense; I am merely stating the facts. In this era, even numerous strong and capable experts can become weak. An Olympic long-distance running champion would definitely be unable to catch up with an eighty-year-old man driving a BMW
"What do you want to learn knitting for, after all?" Mrs. Luo asked patiently.
After an extreme shock, Zhu Bowen's heart began to race violently
Dear, I originally thought you had outgrown the age of pranks Mrs. Luo, Yu Jiajing, approached with a smile
However, Yanmo would not be dazed; he pulled the trigger once again
Luo Li asked, this question is actually Yan Mo's request. Although he desires to have his own body, lying in bed in agony all day long is certainly not his wish. Upon hearing this, Zhu Bowen became increasingly convinced that the girl before him was an informant for an organ trafficker. However, for some reason, at this moment, as long as someone was willing to chat with him, it seemed that it did not matter who that person was.
I hope it is not that kid who is currently locked up in the reform school said Luo Zengming, his tone carrying a hint of anger
Like many families, the breakfast time at the Luo household begins at 8:30. Those born after the 1960s do not emphasize going to bed early and rising early; on the contrary, going to bed after midnight and waking up at 8:00 in the morning has become the habit of the majority.
He seems to be even wealthier than your father
"You bought it too? Aren't you quite young? Do you really need such medicine? This medicine must be quite expensive," Luo Zengming inquired.
What left Luo Zengming somewhat stunned was his daughter's plate, which contained a medium-rare steak
Dad, when you drive to work, just drop me off at a random MRT station, " said Lori
Yan Mo, who had remained silent all along, suddenly jumped out. His excited demeanor did not seem to indicate any trouble. The source of his excitement was that the old man's son was not alone; at that moment, he was conversing with five individuals who clearly did not appear to be good people. Just as Yan Mo was joyfully contemplating that he finally had the opportunity to test the newly equipped weapons, the girl with the book took out a camera from her small bag inside. Under a twenty-fold zoom, that guy's face was captured clearly. Just as Yan Mo was joyfully contemplating that he finally had the opportunity to test the newly equipped weapons, the girl with the book took out a camera from her small bag inside.

"Mom, can you knit a sweater?" asked Lori
As he spoke, he once again raised the gun in his hand and gently pulled the trigger, producing another soft "pop" sound. This time, the one hit was the informant from earlier. That person was at least thirty meters away, yet for Yan Mo, that slightly hooked nose seemed as if it were right before his eyes. Compared to the previous two, this one appeared to be slightly more fortunate; when the 6mm steel ball struck his nose, it was no longer as powerful as when it had just left the barrel, but it still caused the man to fall to the ground in pain.

What are you doing here? How did you get up here?
However, it was already too late when they learned about this matter. The two boys pressed their noses tightly, with mucus and tears continuously flowing down their fingers. "It seems to be quite effective," Lori said casually, glancing at the two guys who were making strange sounds.
"It seems you don't know how to do it. Sigh—Mom, did your grandmother ever nag you when you were young? Saying you didn't seem like a girl?" asked Lori. The father beside her suddenly choked and began to cough loudly
Luo Zengming's breakfast consists of two slices of bread, a fried egg, and a few slices of ham; his wife, like most young women who are conscious of their appearance, always has a nutritious yet calorie-deficient vegetable salad for breakfast
Rushing up a slightly curved staircase, the stairs are wide and somewhat steep. Perhaps due to the presence of several escalators on each floor of this shopping mall, there are very few people walking on this staircase
As a burst of splendid music resounded, the door to the study was opened
Is it really your own choice? Without me, without my father standing in front, that old man's son would have probably taken back all the inheritance long ago. Thinking about it now makes me feel like I've lost a lot. In the future, before making any transactions, I must think it through carefully first
Zhu Bowen had no way of knowing whether this was because, deep down, he truly did not want to die. Although at this moment, suicide seemed to be the only way out for him, once he arrived at this point, at the edge of death, the fear of death suddenly surpassed everything else.
We truly cannot feel at ease letting you go out alone; what if you encounter a bad person? There are often news reports about children being kidnapped." That mother quickly intervened.
Mr. Luo, I truly envy you men; even if you age a little, it is not too obvious. Unlike us women, once we age, it is clearly etched on our faces.
"Hello—aren't you an organ trafficker?" Zhu Bowen asked
The pinhole camera may be relatively easy to purchase, as it has become a primary tool for perverse voyeurs. Loli searched online and found that, apart from companies selling security products, the only other option was adult stores. Loli hesitated about whether to visit the latter to gain some experience.
Therefore, many scholars suggest that the age of forty should be considered as the retirement age. This allows for the optimal utilization of work experience while alleviating concerns about the elderly hindering the progress of the times
Upon hearing these words, Luo Zengming finally felt a sense of relief
He took two steps forward, then suddenly stopped. He turned around and asked in a voice as low as possible: "Dear wife, do you think I am old now?"
Are you planning to go back on your word? NO, NO, NO! I will not compromise. We agreed on a twenty-year installment plan, and yesterday was just the first payment. I am looking forward to next week arriving soon, yay!
Perhaps due to a relaxed mood, the entire morning passed in a hurry. After making the last call on the list, Luo Zengming left the spacious chair, contemplating whether it would be appropriate to invite Midi to lunch, and whether it might lead to unnecessary misunderstandings
"Which is more high-end, Givenchy or Pierre Cardin and Lacoste?" he asked at the end of his statement
He gazed leisurely into the distance, and the few individuals who had been chatting there just moments ago clearly understood that something had changed. The son of the recently deceased elder turned and hurriedly left, while the others were momentarily at a loss for how to react. He suddenly kicked the knee of the previously cursing fellow, eagerly anticipating the legendary sound of bones breaking. However, to his disappointment, although the fellow, in pain, moved his hands from covering his nose to his right knee, rolling on the ground, all that could be heard was his wretched cries and howls, with no sound of bones breaking to be found.
"Running around again, and even stealing the DV from home." One of them cursed with a dirty mouth.
At that moment, he suddenly heard a commotion outside
As for the means of self-defense, I believe that if I were truly faced with a group of bandits, I would understand better than both of you how to protect myself said Lori
Although Yan Mo still does not have enough information, that guy who wants to commit suicide actually dares to link his death with the stock market. Even he, who knows nothing about the stock market, understands that this gentleman in front of him is probably not an ordinary person
As the heavy sighs echoed in his ears, Luo Zengming felt an increasing weight on his heart
It seems that I misunderstood. Come back, come back, let's continue our conversation. I am about to die, and I won't have the opportunity to chat with anyone else. If you are willing to keep me company for a little while, I will give you my watch. This is one that I ordered from Patek Philippe.
A series of light sounds like "pa pa pa" echoed, and the weeping Fei Zai rolled on the ground, among them one person with blood dripping from his hand, looking utterly tragic. To be fair, even Yan Mo found it somewhat unbearable, and he quickly turned to head upstairs. Suddenly, a pair of large hands reached out from around the corner and grabbed his arm, followed by Yan Mo feeling his body being lifted up, with incomprehensible curses ringing in his ears, neither resembling Cantonese nor Minnan.
With a scream, Yan Mo felt his body being thrown out, behind him was an expanse of emptiness. If he could not stop his fall, he would continue to plummet to the ground floor. At this moment, Yan Mo felt an immense sense of relief; his whimsical thoughts were now proven to be remarkably correct. With a gentle wave of his left hand, an extremely lightweight climbing hook was flung out, narrowly hooking onto the edge of the glass beneath the railing.
How much do you owe
I have seen that in my mother's handbag, there is always a 30,000-volt stun gun and a can of pepper spray. If the two of you were to face off, I would definitely place my bet on my mother. Dad, if you can last five seconds, that would already be a miracle.
It turns out that committing suicide by jumping off a building is such a difficult thing; perhaps using a gun to blow one's brains out would be much easier. Then there is that bottle of sleeping pills, which suggests that there are indeed other options. Struggling and hesitating within, Zhu Bowen retracted the leg that was dangling outside. Only then did he realize how narrow it was outside the railing, with hardly any space to even slightly turn his body. Gripping the railing tightly, he tried to turn his body as much as possible. As the fierce wind whipped around him, Zhu Bowen contemplated his life. He wondered if anyone had ever been driven to such a state by him, just as he was now. At this moment, he felt that perhaps all of this was retribution, a retribution that had led him, someone who considered himself to have a heavenly fate and who was always successful, to encounter the star of misfortune.
On her list, there are still many other items that need to be purchased, but it becomes somewhat difficult to decide where to go next. Compared to the previous items, the upcoming ones are harder to find, even though they are all electronic products. In this era, no goods are considered less valuable than electronic products. However, what troubles Lori is that acquiring those items on her list is quite challenging.
"I want to ask you something. Do you want to die? Do you want to jump down from here?" asked Loli
Lori pondered for a while, and finally unable to resist the strong temptation, said helplessly: "Alright, alright, let's go take a look first." Standing on the high rooftop, he glanced down slightly at the more than sixty-story building; looking down from above was enough to make him feel weak in the knees. Zhu Bowen already sensed that his courage was gradually waning.
"Sweater? Do you want to knit one for yourself? You can just go buy one, no need to do it yourself," Mrs. Luo inquired.
"Is that so? Don't you all feel that you are getting old?" Loli asked with a tone of surprise
Damn
You have caused such a great trouble now, yet you want me to bear it alone? Do you think I am a fool? However, if you leave, the matter of the installment payments can be settled in one stroke, which is not bad at all. As for the inheritance...
Upon hearing these emphatic words, the father accidentally choked on a bite, and while coughing, he resolved from that moment on to absolutely refrain from discussing certain topics at the dining table, especially in the presence of his daughter.
Everything has calmed down, with only faint cries coming from upstairs: "My eyes, ah—my eyes—I am blind—who will help me! I am blind!" Looking at the chaotic surroundings, Yan Mo shrugged his shoulders, pushed through the crowd, and walked towards the corner where the scooter had been hidden. The scooter was still leaning against the wall, untouched. Stepping onto the scooter, Yan Mo leisurely left the place that had just experienced a fierce battle
"Are you still thinking about what just happened? As a man, you should be broad-minded," Mrs. Luo comforted in a gentle voice
Loli does not intend to continue entangling with that unsophisticated person; she is more willing to converse with the elderly man who wants to commit suicide. At this moment, she even feels that talking more with the former is making her increasingly mundane.
There is no need to worry, I can take care of myself, and I will not go to those dangerous places. You should be very clear that I do not easily trust the words of unfamiliar people. Even with familiar individuals, such as Uncle Zhang, I remain cautious and vigilant.
Who does not wish to be a bit younger? Moreover, I am indeed somewhat concerned about the onset of aging. The ozone hole, ultraviolet radiation, the greenhouse effect, global warming, and air pollution, combined with the fast pace of life, make it easy for one to age.
Upon hearing these numbers, Yanmo and Luoli almost simultaneously turned their bodies and walked towards the staircase.
Unaware that she had already sparked a wave of panic about aging, Lori glided through the bustling crowd on her scooter. In the upper right pocket of her gray denim jacket, there was a list detailing all the items she wished to purchase. Japanese-imported carbon fiber, Italian gel coats, and only the resin was locally sourced. After paying a deposit and leaving her address, Lori did not utter a single unnecessary word to the speechless clerk, who looked as foolish as a simpleton.
"One billion? It doesn't make much of a difference, I suppose. The total debt of the companies I own to the bank is approximately over four billion U.S. dollars. In addition, there are some outstanding accounts payable, which likely add up to over a billion U.S. dollars as well," Zhu Bowen said, lowering his head.
Upon arriving at the company, in the crowded elevator, Luo Zengming happened to see the marketing department manager standing in the innermost corner. After exchanging greetings, Luo Zengming could not help but ask, "Kevin, to be honest, do you think I look a bit older?" The marketing department manager, Chen Kaiwen, is two years younger than Luo Zengming, which is precisely why Luo Zengming felt he was the most suitable person to ask.
The world is changing rapidly now. Some studies have shown that after five years of graduating from university, 90% of people can no longer keep up with the times. More than half of the activities undertaken by individuals over the age of thirty do not contribute to the advancement of the era, but rather hinder its progress. This is the most powerful manifestation of aging.
He glanced down at his feet; this was indeed the dead end that Old Master Yuan had predicted for him. Old Master Yuan's words were always accurate, yet the resolve to jump down was incredibly difficult to muster. Just as Zhu Bowen was caught in indecision, he suddenly heard someone ascending the stairs.
At the end of his words, he naturally did not wish to surrender easily; with a sudden pull of his sleeve, his still free left hand moved forcefully
After a moment of hesitation, Luo Zengming picked up the phone that was placed on the edge of the desk and dialed his wife's number
Let us go, there is nothing more to discuss.
"Lily, if you want to go out, I can drive you," said the young mother
Lily, it sounds as if you think we are all elderly people. Are we really that out of touch with the times? What is it that you understand, but we cannot comprehend?
There is trouble
Aren't you already fully prepared? That recording can prove everything in the *illustrated* book, " he said dismissively at the end of his statement
"It is about our daughter, and I need to discuss it with you. Come here, and I will show you something," said Luo Zengming. Mrs. Luo walked to the desk with a hint of surprise. When she saw the still image on the laptop, she almost gasped. Luo Zengming pressed the play button.
It is fine, there are still three legs here that can be used for trying
I am merely in debt and unable to repay it, with no way out
Stay calm and composed, do not dwell on things that have already passed. I absolutely cannot feel at ease with you driving like this at this moment; I am waiting for you to come back early after work. After saying all this, the young lady gently kissed her husband's cheek.
Dad—do you really want to know? I advise you that some things are better left unknown
Having lost control of her body, Loli let out a piercing scream. It was only then that she noticed the guy who wanted to throw her down to her death was fiercely lunging towards the steel hook
It is precisely those anti-aging products that are so expensive, and in the end, I can't even afford a house. Sigh... It seems that I can only wait until after I turn thirty, when no anti-aging treatments will have a noticeable effect, to save this money for housing. For now, I will just take it one day at a time.
Come up? It's very simple, as long as you have a glass cutter that can cut through glass, along with a piece of adhesive film. This is a method often seen in movies; due to some past incidents, I always carry these very useful tools with me
Do not come over
Hurry, subdue that guy!
At the pinnacle of success, a further step forward may lead to a great wind that could break it
"Hey, don't do that. If someone sees it, it will definitely damage my image," Loli complained, saying, "It's just a small fry; there's really no need to worry too much."
As previously mentioned, these words caused the head of the household to twitch his face. After a considerable amount of time, he finally asked, "Does that mean you possess even more powerful and effective defensive tools?"
Lori spoke in a rather mature manner, and without a doubt, her words made her father feel as if he had swallowed a stone, causing him immense discomfort. Watching his daughter's silhouette, Luo Zengming let out a gentle sigh
If it were in the past, Zhu Bowen would have absolutely thought he was seeing things. Just in that fleeting moment, he saw the girl with one eye fixed intently on her watch, while the other eye turned to look at him, a strange smile lingering at the corner of her mouth
Yan Mo clearly saw the malicious smile on Fei Zai's face, but that smile quickly vanished without a trace. This was because five sharp blades suddenly sprang from Yan Mo's left hand; they were surgical hook knives, all imported from the United Kingdom and crafted using the world's most perfect quenching techniques. These remarkably thin hook knives, originally designed to handle tough tissues like tendons, were more than capable of dealing with a palm. Even before feeling any pain, the five blades had already sliced across Fei Zai's palm. Among their group, Fei Zai was considered a tough character, yet he was far from being a desperate criminal. He could only watch in shock as his palm was cut open, rendered speechless in disbelief. Even before feeling any pain, the five blades had already sliced across Fei Zai's palm. Among their group, Fei Zai was considered a tough character, yet he was far from being a desperate criminal. He could only watch in shock as his palm was cut open, rendered speechless in disbelief.
Lori spoke very calmly, as if she could not perceive at all the middle-aged man standing outside the railing who was contemplating suicide
It is a pity that at that time, driven by greed, I only saw the brilliance and glory of advancing further from a hundred-foot pole, while hoping to miraculously withstand the strong winds. However, now that I am truly on the verge of breaking, it is already too late for regret.
With a gentle swing, Yan Mo tightly grasped the ceiling of the layer below. The glove on her left hand finally proved its worth, as her rough palm, adorned with numerous barbs, caught onto the surface ahead. In that moment, Yan Mo felt as if she were a gigantic gecko.
His friend is in the health care business and happens to have a batch of 'Raspol', authentic French goods, which are hard to find in the market. His friend even offered him a 25% discount, so we all asked Kevin to help buy some more.
"Guilty conscience? Where have I wronged? This money was originally mine to begin with. I earned it with my intellect before that incident, and after that incident, I even exchanged my own well-being for it. I am still feeling dizzy and weak. You, the utterly disgusting pervert, what right do you have to speak to me?"
The steel ball struck the stainless steel railing, producing a sharp impact sound before being deflected, causing the ball, originally aimed at the nose, to ultimately land on the area behind the ear. The area behind the ear is also exceptionally sensitive; the individual let out a painful cry and quickly covered his ears. Another heavy blow followed, this time hitting the joint of the ring finger. The cunning fellow quickly shrank his head back, using his entire arm to shield his face.

Another heavy blow followed, this time hitting the joint of the ring finger. The cunning fellow quickly shrank his head back, using his entire arm to shield his face.
"Forget it, it's pointless to explain to you. You are not people of this era, so it's impossible for you to understand," said Lori, shrugging her shoulders. Upon hearing this, the couple exchanged glances, both left in a state of shock.
Sigh—it's all because I was too eager to calm you down last time; in my haste, I raised the price a bit too high
Like a flash of lightning, Yan Mo pressed tightly against the railing and decided to take a gamble, betting that the person above would throw something down again. The stainless steel railing, reflecting like a mirror, revealed a pair of worn-out NIKE shoes and the pant legs dragging on the ground. Another flowerpot was hurled down, but just as that grotesque face appeared, Yan Mo pulled the trigger. The flowerpot flew past a mere inch from his head, and after a long while, a dull thud echoed from below. Another flowerpot was thrown down, but just as that grotesque face emerged, Yan Mo pulled the trigger again. The flowerpot flew past an inch from his head, and after a long time, a dull thud was heard from below.
"How much do you actually owe?" At the end of the sentence, unable to contain herself, she suddenly took control and asked, "One billion? Two billion?"
Unlike Yan Mo, Loli is a wealthy girl who grew up reading fashion magazines. Moreover, at this moment, her bank account already holds over 300 million. A luxury watch is not something she takes too seriously—although the price of this watch is indeed quite high.
Mr. Luo, are you asking what is happening outside? It is like this: Kevin, like you, has been feeling quite tired recently and is beginning to show signs of aging, so he made a phone call to his friend.
"Let me think it over a bit. If you can manage to fill the emotional void left by my daughter's departure, perhaps I will agree to your request," Mrs. Luo said, a playful smile lingering at the corners of her mouth.
Zhu Bowen sighed heavily and said.
The steel hook was finally thrown down, and in that moment, the fierce flying creature poked its head out, clearly wanting to witness the scene of its prey being brutally smashed to death. With a soft "pop," a series of hoarse and desperate screams followed, and blood splattered from the creature's eyes. Venting his resentment, Yan Mo firmly hooked the steel hook into the ground of the upper level. He gently raised the base of his left palm, which resembled a cat's claw and a gecko's hand, and delicately tore it down from the ceiling.

He gently raised the base of his left palm, which resembled a cat's claw and a gecko's hand, and delicately tore it down from the ceiling
Even if there are slight signs of aging, they are not too obvious, sigh... Luo Zengming let out a gentle sigh
However, for some reason, Luo Zengming felt that he had the will but lacked the strength.
"By the way, Mr. Luo, is there anything you need me to help you with?" The secretary, immersed in the sorrow of youth slipping away, finally remembered her duties
Leaving behind two flying figures writhing on the ground, Yan Mo stepped onto his scooter and effortlessly departed from this place of turmoil. The crowd ahead posed some trouble, but since the crowd was an obstacle for him, it equally created significant hindrance for the pursuers behind him
"Yes, you better not come over; I know you want to stop me," Zhu Bowen said, as he began to enter a state, truly resembling someone who wishes to take their own life
My mood has suddenly improved a lot now," Luo Zengming said with a smile
"Please share your reasons for wanting to commit suicide. It cannot be due to contracting some terminal illness, can it?"
Your insight is quite sharp, even noticing this. Although Loli spoke words of praise, her tone carried an indescribable disdain and mockery
I once promised him that I would take a portion of his money to do charitable deeds. I can listen to you and deceive a person, even if he is an elderly man on the brink of death, but I will never lose my integrity towards a ghost, for I can also be considered a ghost myself
To be honest, ever since I graduated from university, I have felt myself aging day by day, and I can only spend money to buy youth
"That half-kilogram iron block seems to have had no effect at all," said Lori, her tone filled with sarcasm.
Tightly gripping the watch, he began to speculate about its price. The only one he truly knew the value of was the Rolex worn by the little girl's father, priced at over 3 million, which had once left him astonished.
"Do not forget that I provided that clerk with my name and address. I suspect that tonight, the police will come knocking on our door. Do you want us to be sent to a reform school?" Lori said angrily
Once upon a time, he cared about those people, but that was only so that one day, if he ever needed organs, he could find a way to obtain them directly. Little did he expect that now he had become a target in the eyes of these organ traffickers
The people in the distance appeared somewhat sluggish, even oblivious to the situation here. However, at the corner nearby, there was someone waving towards the distance, greeting. This unexpected gesture caught Yan Mo's attention, and he controlled one of Lori's eyes to turn in that direction
Organ trafficker? Both Yan Mo and Luoli were taken aback at the same time
"Tampering with air guns, injuring others with air guns, and these specially made shoes, along with the blades on this clothing and gloves filled with surgical knives, who do you think you are? Jack the Ripper? If this does not qualify as an extremely dangerous individual, then the reform school is probably no different from a church choir," said Lori. Just as the two were embroiled in a heated argument, a sudden surge of intense awareness caught their attention.

Just as the two were embroiled in a heated argument, a sudden surge of intense awareness caught their attention.
In the study where the curtains were tightly drawn, Luo Zengming was staring blankly at the stolen footage. After finally finishing the playback, he quickly rewound the recording to the very beginning. He intended to delete that segment completely, not because he was worried about the professor seeing it, but because he was genuinely concerned that if he hesitated even slightly, he might be unable to resist the urge to rewind and watch it again.
As soon as the small door on the top floor opened, Zhu Bowen shouted loudly. To his surprise, it was not the police officer he had anticipated, but a beautiful little girl who came up.
Mr. Luo, do you feel the same way? I don't know why, but after turning thirty, I feel like I'm getting older and older!
Zhu Bowen inquired, feeling quite perplexed, as the door to the top floor had always been securely locked.
Upon opening the office door, I saw that the corridor was crowded with many people. Those who had returned appeared very excited, each carrying one or two beautifully packaged boxes. At the secretary's desk by the door, Miti was also humming a tune cheerfully, and beside her desk were two of those boxes.
"Qing Shui." Luo Zengming replied, "By the way, Miti, do you think I have aged?"
Lori spoke to the tenant residing within her.
"Do you feel it? It seems that someone is either wanting to die or is in need of help," Yan said at the end.
Another thing that made Yan Mo feel pleased was that he did not even need to look back; just by listening to the noisy sound of the crowd parting behind him, he could tell how far the pursuers were from him.
Upon hearing about the debt, Loli immediately felt a lack of interest; however, she remained very concerned. In the past, he would have avoided anyone who was deeply in debt at all costs. Yet at this moment, having just received a windfall and with several hundred million in his account, he felt somewhat elated. Regarding this country bumpkin's malevolent spirit, Loli poured a bucket of cold water over him, saying: "You ignorant fool who has never seen the world, take a good look at that guy's clothes and the brand of his shoes. Have you ever seen anything like it? You probably haven't even heard of it. Givenchy, and it looks like it was custom-made. If that is the case, this old man’s wealth is definitely not simple."
By the time the little girl finished speaking, the two individuals had already walked over in this direction
The pinhole camera is easy to obtain, but the subsequent listening devices and similar items are not so easily acquired. These items are illegal, which makes the sellers of such goods appear rather secretive. Just as Loli was hesitating, she caught sight of a familiar face at the street corner out of the corner of her eye
"What I want to know is, what kind of weapons are hidden on our daughter, and are they illegal?" Luo Zengming said with concern.
Upon entering his office, he saw his secretary, Miti, standing at the desk, organizing the files that had been reviewed the previous day. Noticing the boss's arrival, Miti greeted him and asked, "Mr. Luo, would you like coffee or plain water?"
"Isn't our current trouble already enough?" Loli asked dismissively
It was precisely for this reason that her true attention was entirely focused on the person who wanted to commit suicide. Zhu Bowen's hand loosened, and the person nearly fell down. In that fleeting moment, he felt a chill run down his spine; even now, his legs were still trembling uncontrollably. What had frightened this well-informed man to such an extent was merely a fleeting glance from the little girl before him
She paused for a moment, as if coming to an understanding, and said: "Indeed, this is the proof that you cannot comprehend and are unable to keep up with the times"
Examine your conscience, do you feel guilty? Have you considered how much money you have gained without effort? Don't say that I only donated half; even if I donated all the money, it originally did not belong to you. All the money belongs to that old man, and it was obtained through deceit from him.
Yan Mo cursed angrily, realizing that the cunning fellow had not forgotten to guard against him. He bent down, hiding behind the glass barrier, and approached cautiously. Suddenly, Yan Mo saw the reflection of that sly and fierce guy's menacing face clearly on the smooth, mirror-like stainless steel railing above the glass barrier. At that moment, there was no time for further consideration; Yan Mo raised his gun and fired with a "bang".
Indeed, I am just a bit tired. By the way, I reconsidered the marketing department's project last night and still feel it lacks detail. Please do not rush to send that report out; let Kevin and the others organize and enrich it further, and then submit it to me for review.
Dad, there is something I feel very embarrassed to say, and it may deeply hurt your self-esteem. If you, Mom, and I were to encounter robbers separately, it is likely that you would be the least capable of protecting yourself. If the three of us were to face robbers at the same time, you might end up dragging us all down, leading to our capture.
"Idiot, fool, moron, pervert, pornographic pig," Loli cursed, unleashing every insult she could imagine from her mind. "Damn it, I shouldn't have easily trusted others' words. What my aunt said made no sense at all. Those so-called positive affirmations that are supposedly unbreakable—just try approaching from a different angle. Now I've really suffered a huge loss"
Upon hearing these words, Zhu Bowen was completely taken aback. Immediately, he thought of the organ traffickers often mentioned in the news, individuals who specialize in illegally selling human organs to wealthy individuals in need of transplants
In this shopping center filled with bustling crowds and vibrant shops, Yan Mo felt neither panic nor fear; he treated the moment as if he were engaged in a game of hide and seek
I regret not heeding the comments of Mr. Yuan at the time; looking back now, those remarks were spot on.
Loli is not very likely to mistake someone she has met before; her memory in this regard is particularly outstanding
"You, with your grandiose tone, tell us, if you were to encounter a bandit, in what way are you superior to the two of us?" The father asked with a look of disbelief, but soon his expression became stiff.
Come on, are you still not happy? With that few hundred million, I could easily buy a house full of beautiful women, and even add one or two celebrities.
That is a matter of course; with six millimeter steel balls paired with a carbon dioxide cylinder, the speed at which the steel balls exit the muzzle definitely exceeds four joules. The item in my hand does not conform to the legal standards here.
Following the rope, he slid down to the next level, at which point he realized that the area was already crowded with onlookers. Suddenly, a trash can came hurtling down from the side, followed closely by a large flower pot that was thrown down. The flower pot crashed onto the railing behind him, shattering into pieces with a dull thud.
It is quite easy. The one on the left and the one on the right, they are the people you need to deal with. Those who hang around here are definitely not wealthy individuals, nor will they be wearing any fine clothes. Even if they do have nice clothes, they would surely have been borrowed by the boss, so they can be easily distinguished.
"Let Lily go to the UK, I ask you once again, this is beneficial for her and for us. I do not know why, but Lily has become increasingly strange, and I sincerely hope to send her away before she does anything even more bizarre," said Luo Zengming.
"I have handed over control to you. Haven't you always wanted to show off?" Loli said after capturing the aggressive demeanor of the two individuals and stuffing the camera back into her bag. Almost simultaneously, Yan Mo had already seized control of the other hand and swiftly drew out a very rough-looking, brightly colored toy gun. The two thugs initially dismissed her; in their view, this little girl was either foolish or mentally unstable. However, when the two soft 'pop' sounds reached their ears, they realized that the situation was not as simple as they had imagined.
Zhu Bowen said, carefully removing a watch from his left wrist, which did not appear to be particularly extravagant. Almost simultaneously, Yan Mo and Luo Li ran to the railing and took the watch. For Yan Mo, he had no recollection of the brand Patek Philippe; the only luxury watch he knew was Rolex. However, having just been mocked, he naturally would not ask that little girl about it. Being treated as a bumpkin all day long, he always felt somewhat embarrassed. For Yan Mo, he had no recollection of the brand Patek Philippe; the only luxury watch he knew was Rolex.

What should we do now? By making such a big move, you are sure to attract the attention of the police. As long as those officers are not fools, they will surely find the shop where I placed my order by asking around in the nearby stores
Yan Mo counted the number of people at the end, and it seemed that there was one less than what he had seen earlier. Although it was impossible to catch them all, losing one or two was not a major concern. As he watched the leading figure approach closer, Yan Mo felt a slight disappointment. He had originally planned to have all the flying drones positioned higher before firing the steel balls, but now he could only act in advance.
Perhaps this time you can finally free yourself from my entanglement, or perhaps there is a large inheritance waiting for you to deceive.
"How much do I owe? I don't even know myself. I believe that as soon as the news of my suicide is released, the entire stock market will at least drop by one hundred points," Zhu Bowen said with a bitter smile.
