Chapter 61 Speaking Frankly

When I arrived at the hospital, Zhang Ning and Xu Qing were waiting for me.

I sat on the sofa in front of Xu Qing, somewhat afraid to look at her. Zhang Ning had told Xu Qing everything about me and Shi Zhongtian, including the strange events that started at the Shanghai shooting range. She probably already knew that although it was Shi Zhongtian's body that was intimate with her yesterday, it was actually me who controlled Shi Zhongtian's thoughts and actions. I looked at Xu Qing, her expression a mixture of shame and anger, or sadness. Shame and anger, of course, because I had taken advantage of her using Shi Zhongtian's body; sadness, because if things were really as I described, Shi Zhongtian probably didn't have much time left. I thought that the main reason Xu Qing refused to believe Zhang Ning's words was that she was unwilling to accept this reality, and I was genuinely afraid she might do something rash.

Although Shi Zhongtian was still lying in the hospital bed, he was practically a walking corpse, devoid of his own thoughts and consciousness. Most of his consciousness had now transferred to my brain, infiltrating my consciousness. Although I can't extract Shi Zhongtian's memories smoothly yet, his thoughts definitely exist in my brain; I can be considered another Shi Zhongtian.

I told Xu Qing everything I knew about Shi Zhongtian, including my suspicions about his identity and my analysis of the car accident. Xu Qing

said, "If what you said is true, then the person in bed with me yesterday was you?"

I timidly said, "You could say that. "

Xu Qing was both ashamed and angry, and slapped me across the face: "You, you're disgusting. "

I knew I was in the wrong, so I could only take the slap. Zhang Ning said gloatingly, "Good for you, that brat is really outrageous."

Xu Qing said, "You're not a good person either, you ganged up with him to bully me. "

Zhang Ning looked aggrieved and said, "Cousin, I'm not lying to you, I only found out last night. "

Then she said to me, "Is what you said true? If it is, then do it again for your cousin to see."

Seriously, does she think I'm a magician?

I went to the ward to see Shi Zhongtian again. Shi Zhongtian sat on the bed, staring blankly at me, seemingly lifeless. Had he completely lost consciousness and become an idiot after transferring his memories into my mind? I asked Zhang Ning if the drugs in Shi Zhongtian's body had been detected. Zhang Ning told me that the doctors hadn't found anything unusual yet, but they were baffled by the shadow appearing in Shi Zhongtian's mind. There are countless types of poisons or other drugs, just like performance-enhancing drugs used by athletes; they are constantly evolving. Without understanding their toxicology and pharmacological effects, they cannot be detected. It's like how people use performance-enhancing drugs at every sports meet, but only a few are detected. Some new drugs are often discovered years later. I thought that the toxins in Shi Zhongtian's body might forever remain a mystery.

To convince Xu Qing that I was truly one with Shi Zhongtian, I entered his body again. I found his mind empty. Perhaps the doctors had given him some antidote; the dark force within Shi Zhongtian hadn't further eroded his brain and body.

Now, I, as Shi Zhongtian, walked out of the ward, while my true form lay on Xu Qing's bed.

Xu Qing and Zhang Ning stared at me, their mouths agape in disbelief. I said, "Now, you should believe I wasn't lying, right?"

Zhang Ning looked at me, "Are you my cousin-in-law or Xiao Xin now?"

Because I had already prepared them beforehand, they could accept it; otherwise, they would have been terrified. Even I myself found it hard to believe and accept at first.

I took Zhang Ning's hand and said, "Sister, of course I'm still Xiao Xin now."

Zhang Ning, holding my hand, must have felt strange. The person in front of her was clearly Shi Zhongtian, but his words and actions were those of Xiao Xin. She didn't know whether to call me cousin-in-law or Xiao Xin. Xu Qing was swaying unsteadily, and I quickly supported her, saying, "Cousin, wake up."

Xu Qing woke up and, seeing herself lying in my arms, hugged me tightly, "Zhongtian, what happened to you?"

I held her, unsure of what to say. In front of Zhang Ning, I didn't dare comfort Xu Qing on Shi Zhongtian's behalf, so I just let Xu Qing hug me. It was actually quite comfortable to have her breasts pressing against my chest.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Xu Qing said, "Zhongtian, what's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything?"

I stammered, "Cousin, I'm Xiaoxin."

Xu Qing suddenly remembered the transformation between Shi Zhongtian and me, and pulled away from me, her face flushed and pale. Looking at me, she suddenly covered her face and cried. Zhang Ning sat beside her and it took her a long time to calm her down. It's understandable; seeing her husband inexplicably turn into another person is unbearable for anyone. However, Shi Zhongtian had been in a coma for half a year after the car accident, and Xu Qing's resilience had increased considerably; she wasn't as devastated as she had been at the beginning. People have to live on; they can't live in the shadow of pain forever. Otherwise, widows wouldn't live.

Although I had now transformed into Shi Zhongtian, I didn't dare to be rude to Xu Qing like I had yesterday. Firstly, with Zhang Ning present, I wouldn't dare to be intimate with Xu Qing in front of her, even if you gave me the guts. Secondly, Xu Qing was currently grieving deeply, and I couldn't possibly take advantage of her distress. I released Xu Qing, returned to the hospital bed, and then reverted to my own body. Possessing someone was quite mentally taxing, making me a little dizzy, but it quickly subsided.

I sat on the sofa again, and Xu Qing had stopped crying. I noticed her eyes were still red and asked, "So, what's your next step?"

My plan was for Xu Qing to first find out which bank Shi Zhongtian might have a safe deposit box in. Once that was clear, I would possess Shi Zhongtian's body, use his voice to retrieve the contents of the box, and perhaps use this clue to find out the cause of Shi Zhongtian's car accident. I also wanted to uncover Shi Zhongtian's true identity.

Xu Qing seemed to have accepted reality; after learning about Shi Zhongtian's situation, she returned to her usual calm demeanor. She looked at me and said, "I know you currently have two identities, one of which is Shi Zhongtian. I can't accept that you are both Shi Zhongtian and Ye Zixin yet, so from now on, you should remain Ye Zixin. Unless you become Shi Zhongtian, don't speak to me using Shi Zhongtian's identity. I will investigate the bank matter. Shi Xiaoyu and her brother are still in Hong Kong, but I don't want them to know about today's events. Their relationship with Shi Zhongtian is complicated and can't be explained in a short time. Don't tell anyone else about this matter in the future. The fewer people who know, the safer we are. We don't know how much more is behind Shi Zhongtian that we don't know about, so it's best to be cautious. Xiaoning, there's not much going on in Hong Kong now. After the long holiday, you should go back to Shanghai first. You'll have to work harder on the company's affairs."

Afterward, Xu Qing and Zhang Ning discussed some company matters and the next steps. Then, Xu Qing told Zhang Ning and me to leave first. She wanted to be alone and calm down; she still couldn't quite accept what had just happened. But I was already quite surprised by her performance. Her ability to accept reality so quickly and analyze the situation calmly is something most people can't do.

On the way back to the hotel, Zhang Ning asked me, "What do you plan to do about my cousin?"

I replied, "What can I do now? I'm Ye Zixin, not Shi Zhongtian."

Zhang Ning said, "Hmph, I know what you're thinking, you little devil. Are you trying to take advantage of the situation and eat my cousin up too?"

Damn it, don't be so blunt! I said, "I have two identities now, one is Ye Zixin, and the other is Shi Zhongzai. I think it's perfectly normal for me to be close to your cousin."

Zhang Ning tapped me on the head: "I knew you had bad intentions. I'm warning you, my cousin isn't as easy to deal with as I am, not so easily fooled. If you dare to do anything to harm her, don't even think about her objecting; I'll kill you first."

"What? It's not even a hint yet, and you're already talking like it's already happened." I said, "Alright, let's talk about this later. Right now, we need to figure out what Shi Zhongtian left in the bank that made them want to kill him."

Zhang Ning said, "How would I know? Aren't you Shi Zhongtian now? You can recall things from his memories."

Easier said than done. If that were the case, why would I be wasting my breath talking to you like this? Although Shi Zhongtian's memories have been injected into my brain, I can't recall them yet. I wonder if I'll gradually remember them over time.

Chapter 062 Unexpected Clue

It's still early. My sisters should still be playing in the park. I don't want to go back to the hotel so early, so I had Zhang Ning drive around Central. There are more banks there. Maybe I'll suddenly have a flash of inspiration and figure out which bank Shi Zhongtian left his things in.

Let's park the car first. Hong Kong has a lot of people and cars, and not many places, especially in Central. If we don't find a parking spot first, we might drive around twice and still not find one.

This is a bank-heavy area. Zhang Ning and I went to several large banks to ask if they offered safe deposit box services. Most banks here do, and we just wanted to test the waters and see if I could deduce which bank it was from Shi Zhongtian's memory. Of course, it was a very clumsy and primitive method, and it would alert them. If someone was watching us, they could easily guess that we were looking for something in the bank's safe deposit box. They might strike first, or wait until we had the item before taking it. Either way, they would show themselves, which is better than hiding in the shadows. Shi Yuntian and Shi Xiaoyu would probably use their resources to investigate as well.

After visiting several banks, my memory didn't work, and I couldn't determine which bank it was, but I had a feeling it was somewhere in Central. Tomorrow, I can have Xu Qing, posing as Shi Zhongtian's wife, check Shi Zhongtian's safe deposit box.

What a small world! We even ran into Shi Xiaoyu again after leaving the bank. The man beside her wasn't the pretty boy from the day before yesterday; it was someone else, still the handsome young man. It seems she's quite bold, changing men as quickly as changing clothes, using them and then discarding them. I heard Zhang Ning say that none of the men around her have lasted more than a month; usually, a week at most, a night at least, before she dumps them. She was dumped by her boyfriend because of her triad background, but there's no need to retaliate like this. Besides, this isn't really revenge. You think you're playing with men, but don't men think they're playing you too? Plus, you get paid, so why not? Speaking of which, these men could be considered my "colleagues," belonging to the gigolo club. It's just that I've "gone straight" now, and besides "old clients" like Zhang Ning and Liu Ruolan, I don't look for new clients anymore.

Shi Xiaoyu saw us and came over: "Oh, it's Xiao Xin! What brings you two here today?" "

Do we know each other well?" Xiao Xin, Xiao Xin, I said.

Zhang Ning said, "It's nothing, just some business to handle at the bank."

Shi Xiaoyu said, "We're all family, there's no need to be so secretive. I've seen you two go to several banks, are you looking for my brother's safe deposit box?"

It seems she's also looking for this lead, still tracking and monitoring us. Could it be that she sees Shi Zhongtian is dying and wants to get his information first to prevent it from falling into Xu Qing's hands? The relationship between the Shi family and Xu Qing is only through Shi Zhongtian. If he dies, there won't be much kinship between them; they'll only be thinking about economic interests. Since going to university in the US, Shi Zhongtian has rarely returned to Taiwan. I wonder if he's also uncomfortable with his triad family background. I heard Xu Qing say she didn't want to alarm Shi Xiaoyu and her brother about Shi Zhongtian's affairs; is she also worried they might be interested in Shi Zhongtian's assets? Shi Zhongtian has built a considerable fortune over the years, tens of millions in assets. Although the Shi family is wealthy and powerful in Taiwan, too much money doesn't bite. However, Shi Zhongtian's business was all built by himself, and Xu Ming, as his legal wife, should be able to inherit it legitimately. It's just unknown what other identities Shi Zhongtian might have behind him, or what unexpected complications might arise. Since

everything has been stated clearly, there's nothing more to say. It seems Shi Xiaoyu and the others are quite aware of our actions. I asked, "You're the ones searching, right? What leads do you have?"

Shi Xiaoyu glanced at me: "If you want my information, what will you offer in exchange?"

I said, "Are you kidding me? We're working hard for your brother's sake. You don't help us, but you want to exchange? That's so heartless."

Shi Xiaoyu laughed: "He's my brother, of course we care about his affairs. It's rare to see you two so enthusiastic."

Zhang Ning said, "We're investigating on behalf of my cousin. My cousin is Shi Zhongtian's wife and daughter. With her husband in this state, my cousin is his guardian, and of course she has the right to handle all of Shi Zhongtian's affairs. If you have any leads, we hope you can tell us. We're all working for..." " To find out what happened to my cousin-in-law as soon as possible, we should be able to cooperate well,"

Shi Xiaoyu said. "I did some investigation. Two days before the incident, my brother came to Hong Kong, met with three groups of guests, and visited three banks here. If my brother has anything in the bank, it should be in one of these three. We just asked one of them, and they said my brother can come in person to collect it, or my sister-in-law can come on his behalf with legal documents. The addresses of the other two banks are here; you can have your sister-in-law bring my brother. However, I hope we can be there too, as some things might be related to our family, and we don't want others to see them."

Ultimately, they were afraid something would fall into Xu Ming's hands. Xu Qing's family is also super-rich; why would they want anything from the Shi family? You guys are underestimating them.

We didn't expect to get a lead so quickly; we thought we'd have to ask several more banks. Zhang Ning naturally promised to inform Xu Qing on her behalf; she didn't want others to suspect that she and Xu Ming wanted to embezzle something from the Shi family.

But how to get here tomorrow? Shi Zhongtian is like an idiot now, devoid of his own consciousness. If Xu Qing brings him, it won't make much difference; we'll definitely need a certificate from the hospital proving he has mental problems, and completing the formalities will take time. I'm thinking of re-entering Shi Zhongtian's body to "represent" him and retrieve the items, but I don't know if I can still control him in this situation. The journey from the hospital to the bank is long, and it certainly won't be short. I've only managed to control him in one room so far; who knows what might happen outside the ward?

Shi Xiaoyu said, "Gentlemen, I've provided the clues now. Next, your cousin will come with the documents to collect the items. How about we go for a coffee?"

Zhang Ning replied, "We need to go back and discuss it with our cousin, so we won't bother you any longer."

Shi Xiaoyu said, "You go discuss it with your sister-in-law. I'll keep this little brother company for you."

Zhang Ning knew that Shi Xiaoyu treated men as playthings. She had been "eager to hunt" with him the day before, and now that he was in her hands, he didn't know what tricks she would play on him. He didn't want to get entangled with her any longer. "I appreciate your kindness," Zhang Ning said. "I'll keep Xiao Xin company."

Shi Xiaoyu laughed, "What, are you afraid I'll ruin your little lover? I've heard he's a young stud, very skilled in bed, he won't break."

Zhang Ning, hearing her increasingly absurd remarks, said, "Shi Xiaoyu, what do you mean? If you want to play with men, you can just summon them and dismiss them at will. Don't even think about getting involved with Xiao Xin."

Shi Xiaoyu laughed, "What, are you heartbroken? I've heard your little lover is having some minor troubles right now, do you need my help?"

What trouble am I in? It's just being blackmailed by Wang Keming with a recording, nothing serious. With the Security Bureau watching him, he can't pull anything too far. But those recordings are still a worry. Zhang Ning and Liu Ruolan don't want it to get out; it'll make them look bad, which is why they haven't called the police. If Shi Xiaoyu can get the tapes back, that would be a solution. Without that leverage, Wang Keming won't have anything to threaten us with.

I said, "What trouble am I in? I'm doing well in my studies and having fun here."

Shi Xiaoyu said, "I know you very well. From your childhood background to your summer job in Shanghai and being blackmailed with the recording, I know a lot. Don't look at me like that. I'm interested in you, so of course I need to know more."

It seems her intelligence network isn't fake; in just two days, she knows quite a bit about me. Damn, I wonder what other information she knows about me.

Zhang Ning said, "Shi Xiaoyu, what do you mean? This isn't Taiwan, where you can do whatever you want."

Shi Xiaoyu replied, "So what if it's not Taiwan? There's nothing I can't get, including men. Don't worry, I'm just playing around, I won't do anything to him. We're still good friends, right? I won't break your little pet. I'll return it to you intact when I'm done."

Damn it, who do you think you are? You think you can just play with me and I'll obediently let you? I said, "What do you think you can do to me? It's just a few cassette tapes, you think you can blackmail me with that?"

Damn it, this is all Zhao Lin's doing. When Zhang Ning goes back to Shanghai, I'll definitely teach her a lesson and search her house thoroughly. I don't want my movies constantly appearing in front of me.

Shi Xiaoyu said, "Not bad, you have character. I'm liking you more and more. Little brother, you can't escape my grasp."

Damn it, who do you think you are? When I go back to the mainland, what can you do to me? The mainland is not like Taiwan. Even if you have a so-called intelligence network, it's just a small fry, not worth the attention of the National Security Bureau. If you anger me, I'll report you to the National Security Bureau. Is this woman too traumatized? Does she think that because she's beautiful, men will let her play with them one by one? It's only because she has money and is backed by the underworld that they dare not disobey. Both times I encountered Shi Xiaoyu, it made me furious. Now I'm surrounded by beautiful women, why would I stoop to being played by women again? Still relying on your own hands? How can that be enjoyable? Forum reputation guaranteed!

We went back to the hospital and told Xu Qing about the clues regarding the bank safe deposit boxes, wanting her to take Shi Zhongtian to these three banks tomorrow to see what secrets Shi Zhongtian was hiding that would lead to his death.

Chapter 63

The second day of our bank trip, Zhang Ning and I went to the hospital again. My sister was accompanied by Lin Shiyi. I briefly told my sister about Shi Zhongtian and me. My sister watched me grow up and knew I had many secrets, so she wasn't too surprised. She just told me to be careful. But to appease Lin Shiyi and make sure she played with my sister, I had to use a lot of persuasion and promise to play with her properly in the future. Only then did she reluctantly agree. This little brat is too jealous. She kept asking me about what happened yesterday afternoon. If it weren't for our three years of friendship in junior high, I would have been quite impatient. Honestly, she's still "tough on the upside." The more I hardened my tone, the softer she became. It seems I've been too gentle with her before; I can't be so lenient with her anymore.

We discussed it and decided that I would transform into Shi Zhongtian again, while Zhang Ning would stay at the hospital to take care of my original body. After I entered Shi Zhongtian's body, my own body would fall into a deep sleep, with Zhang Ning guarding me to prevent any unexpected situations from disturbing me and causing unforeseen consequences. This was truly an adventure for us; we had no idea what the consequences would be.

I followed Xu Qing out of the hospital and into the car. Xu Qing was still a little uncomfortable with me, glancing at me every now and then; I wondered what she was thinking. I thought, she and Shi Zhongtian had been married for a year, but their actual married life had only lasted about six months. They probably didn't fully understand each other yet, and now this strange thing had happened. It was remarkable that she could handle it so calmly.

I felt slightly dizzy, but still relatively clear-headed, though my limbs felt weak and lightheaded. This was normal; I looked a bit like someone in a science fiction movie controlling a robot with their brain.

We arrived at the first bank, as provided by Shi Xiaoyu, where she was already waiting. She was somewhat surprised to see Shi Zhongtian: "Second sister-in-law, you still brought my brother out in this condition?"

Xu Qing, Zhang Ning, and I had discussed it; I decided to pretend to have some amnesia to avoid giving anything away. My situation was rather shocking, and I had to use this to cover my tracks. The hospital had already issued a certificate stating that Shi Zhongtian had suffered brain damage due to the car accident, resulting in memory loss and mental confusion. Xu Qing said, "I wanted to bring your second brother out; maybe he'll remember something. Besides, some bank safe deposit boxes require fingerprint recognition, so bringing Zhongtian would be more convenient."

She's my wife now, so of course she wanted to hold my hand, but I noticed her expression seemed a little unnatural; it seemed she still had some reservations about my identity.

We inquired at the bank's safe deposit box department, handed over Shi Zhongtian's ID, and after entering it into the computer, they quickly found his safe deposit box number. After completing the identity verification procedures, we entered the safe deposit box area. Because we couldn't provide the password and key, the bank specially sent a lawyer to accompany us to open the safe deposit box and have us sign for acceptance. Inside the box were some company documents and letters from Shi Zhongtian. The contents weren't particularly noteworthy; most were business correspondence. The three of us were somewhat disappointed; these letters wouldn't be very helpful for the investigation.

We then went to a second bank and quickly found that Shi Zhongtian also had a safe deposit box there, with a 10-year term and prepaid fees. The instructions specifically stated that Shi Zhongtian himself must open the box alone, and no one else could do it on his behalf. If it remained unopened after 10 years, it would need to be opened by a notary public. However, Shi Zhongtian was currently mentally unstable and couldn't go in alone. After verifying the hospital's certificate, comparing his photo, and confirming his fingerprints, Xu Qing was allowed to enter with me as his guardian. Although Shi Xiaoyu was Shi Zhongtian's sister, her legal relationship was naturally inferior to Xu Qing's, and she was helplessly kept out.

Accompanied by bank staff, we entered the special safekeeping area, where clients stored their most important documents and other items, under extremely strict security measures. After the bank staff inserted the bank's key and entered the password, we inserted the safe deposit box key and entered the password again before the safe deposit box was opened. The bank staff then left after entering the bank's password. Since we didn't know Shi Zhongtian had a safe deposit box there, we naturally didn't have the key or password. Only after the bank reconfirmed Shi Zhongtian's identity and completed a series of procedures—Xu Qing, as Shi Zhongtian's wife, filling out numerous forms—we finally obtained a specially backed-up key and password from the bank. This was only because Shi Zhongtian was present and his fingerprints matched, confirming his identity without any problems. Otherwise, if Shi Zhongtian hadn't been there in person, Xu Qing would have faced several days of legal procedures to open the safe deposit box based solely on the documents. Seeing the bank's extremely stringent inspection procedures for this special safe deposit box, Xu Qing and I were genuinely nervous, wondering what Shi Zhongtian had stored there.

Just as we had anticipated, we found the technical data on gallium nitride—the very technology that had led to Shi Zhongtian's demise—in the safe, along with other technical documents. I wasn't very familiar with these technical details, but one document seemed to be about developing a new radar system, possibly the radar blueprints produced by the electronics factory under Jiuxing Company. I had heard Zhang Ning mention that many of their company's product design documents were written by Shi Zhongtian, and that the performance of their radar products had attracted the attention of the military. They had already sent technicians to the factory to study the design principles and see if some of the new technologies could be transferred to military radar.

In addition, we found a sealed envelope. Xu Qing opened it and found four cards inside. The top card had three lines of letters and numbers: Union Bank, Zurich, Bakhoffs Street, 0-17-7-22-0-19-21-0. The following cards were similar, containing bank names, addresses, and numbers. These are clearly bank account cards, with the bank's name and address on them, and a line of handwritten numbers below. Two are from Switzerland, one from the United States, and the other from Bermuda. I wonder if these are Shi Zhongtian's bank accounts. Using handwritten numbers as a signature is a common practice among some banks to ensure the safety of deposits from anonymous individuals who do not wish to reveal their identities. Of course, Swiss banks are most famous for this. It seems that Shi Zhongtian

's identity is not as simple as he usually appears; there must be some secrets behind this. If it were a company account, there would be no need to create such a complicated anonymous account. Anonymous accounts give the impression of being somewhat shady, either involved in money laundering or as the secret funds of some organization. The Shi family has ties to the Taiwanese underworld; could these accounts be used by the Shi family for money laundering overseas? Of course, they could also be operating funds for a secret organization that Shi Zhongtian is involved in. In any case, the source of this money is somewhat unclear.

Xu Qing looked at me and asked, "Zhongtian, what do you think we should do?"

She knew I wasn't the real Shi Zhongtian, but she couldn't help calling me that in front of me. I said, "These blueprints and documents belong to the company. Leave them here for now, and you can take them back to the company later once we've confirmed their safety. As for these bank accounts, don't tell anyone, including Zhang Ning and Shi Xiaoyu, until we figure out their origin. It's just the two of us who should know, okay?"

I thought that if someone really wanted to target Shi Zhongtian for the technical data or these accounts, they would definitely be monitoring our every move. If we took these things out now, we might immediately run into trouble. As for Shi Xiaoyu, I didn't want to tell her about the accounts. First, we didn't know if these accounts belonged to the Shi family, and second, Shi Xiaoyu really annoyed me, bothering me time and time again. Of course, Xu Qing and I both kept these account cards to ourselves; we didn't know when we might need them.

We put everything back in the safe, closed it, and then notified the bank to come in and reseal it for inspection. Then we made a special agreement with the bank that only Shi Zhongtian could open the safe deposit box in the future. If Shi Zhongtian were to pass away, Xu Qing could open it herself with legal documentation. No one else could open it for any reason, not even an authorization letter. If Xu Qing also passed away unexpectedly, the safe deposit box would be opened by the legal department after 10 years and handed over to Shi Zhongtian or Xu Qing's legal heirs. We couldn't be careless; who knew what consequences the documents and accounts inside might bring? With such insurance measures, malicious people should not be able to sabotage us again, otherwise they wouldn't be able to get their hands on anything. For this reason, we signed quite a few documents and had Xu Qing leave her fingerprints.

We spent more than an hour inside before coming out, and Shi Xiaoyu was already quite impatient. Seeing us come out, he asked Xu Qing, "How was it? What was inside?"

Xu Qing replied, "Some technical design drawings. Zhongtian was probably ambushed because of these."

I told Xu Qing that everything except the four bank cards could be made public; hiding things would only raise suspicions of other secrets. Shi Xiaoyu didn't seem to know about the bank cards either. After confirming there were only technical documents and nothing else, she didn't seem too disappointed. However, I noticed she didn't quite trust Xu Qing, suspecting she was being kept from her. But since she couldn't go in, she could only believe whatever Xu Qing said.

I'm currently portraying myself as amnesiac and mentally challenged. It would be quite a challenge in a movie, but it's not difficult for me now. My head is starting to throb. If I don't concentrate, my body feels out of control, so Shi Zhongtian's reaction will be no different from his usual mentally challenged state—easily manipulated. Only when I want to control him will I need to concentrate fully. This work is really mentally taxing. Looking up information in the storage area and discussing it with Xu Qing just now used up a lot of my brain cells, and my head is still spinning.

We've been out all morning and have made quite a few gains. I think we should let Xu Qing and Shi Xiaoyu go to the third bank together; there probably won't be anything of great value there. I felt a bit exhausted and wanted to get back to my body as soon as possible. Xu Qing noticed I was sweating and asked with concern, "Zhongtian, how are you? Are you feeling unwell?"

My head was throbbing, and my body felt weak; I could barely stand with Xu Qing's support.

When we got to the lobby, Xu Qing told Shi Xiaoyu to get the car, and we sat on the sofa in the lobby to wait.

My head was spinning, but I had a vague feeling that someone was watching us. I looked around but didn't see anything unusual, but my unease didn't disappear; instead, it intensified. Was this my premonition? Was the person who attacked Shi Zhongtian now targeting us? Of course, this was the bank lobby; they wouldn't act here. Besides, they wanted documents or bank cards, and they wouldn't act rashly before figuring out if we had those things. I didn't tell Xu Qing about my discovery; I didn't want her to worry, nor did I want to alert those people. I thought they would definitely try again in the hospital. Could I use Shi Zhongtian as bait to lure them in?

Soon, we returned to the hospital. I had already fallen asleep halfway there, while at the same time, I slowly woke up in the hospital.

Zhang Ning was relieved to see me awake. Zhang Ning leaned on me and said, "Xiao Xin, you're finally awake! I was so worried."

I said, "Worried about what? Afraid I wouldn't wake up and would end up like Shi Zhongtian?"

Zhang Ning said, "Pah, pah, pah, don't talk like that." After

being out of my body for so long, I was still a little dizzy. I lay on Xu Qing's bed and closed my eyes to rest.

Not long after, Shi Zhongtian was taken to a ward under the care of a nurse. He was currently only drowsy and otherwise seemed fine.

Seeing Zhang Ning and me there, Shi Xiaoyu said, "You two are here too. Why didn't you go out with my second brother and sister-in-law? Instead, you're hiding here being all lovey-dovey."

We ignored her and asked Xu Qing about the progress of the matter. Zhang Ning genuinely didn't know; I hadn't had a chance to tell her yet. As for me, now under Ye Zixin's new identity, I naturally knew nothing. Acting, of course, should be as realistic as possible. Although I believed Shi Xiaoyu wouldn't harm my brother, it's always better to be cautious. After

Xu Qing finished explaining the situation, Shi Xiaoyu said, "Second sister-in-law, if someone really did harm my second brother, they must know we went to the bank today. We just don't know if we have what they want. I think they'll definitely try again. You and my second brother need to be careful."

I said, "Don't you have an intelligence network? Let your men investigate."

She doesn't seem like someone who manages an intelligence network at all. Her behavior is promiscuous and attention-grabbing; if someone were to make contact with her, it would be strange if they didn't notice. Of course, maybe she's doing it on purpose. The men around her change one after another; who knows if one of them might be her informant? This could be considered playing hard to get, a game of deception. But I don't think Shi Xiaoyu is that shrewd; if she were, she'd be far too insidious.

Shi Xiaoyu glanced at me and laughed, "Of course I'll look into that. Do you want my help to get the tape back? I'd really like to see your amazing performance."

Zhang Ning, both embarrassed and annoyed, said, "Shi Xiaoyu, don't go too far. I'd be very grateful if you helped, but if you try to use it to blackmail me, don't blame me for being rude."

Shi Xiaoyu laughed, "Don't be angry. What will you use to thank me after I get it back?"

Zhang Ning asked, "What kind of money do you want?"

Shi Xiaoyu replied, "What's the point of money for us? Besides, talking about money would damage our friendship. I'll just have your little lover keep me company for three days."

Damn it, she's trying to use my brain again. You have plenty of men around you, why do you have to pick me? Am I really that charming? Could it be that I look a bit like my first love?

A sudden thought struck me: "Is Wang Keming one of your subordinates?"

I'd been suspicious for the past two days; she knew about our situation far too quickly. From my first encounter with her three days ago to my second yesterday, only two days had passed, yet she already knew about Wang Keming threatening me with the tape. If that's the case, her intelligence network is even more powerful than the CIA's. Only a handful of people know about what happened between Wang Keming and me. Liu Ruolan and I naturally wouldn't tell anyone. The only explanation Shi Xiaoyu wanted to know this was that Wang Keming was a member of her intelligence network, and it's even possible that Shi Xiaoyu orchestrated this whole thing. Didn't the National Security Bureau say that Wang Keming's intelligence network had connections to Taiwan? And Shi Xiaoyu is a big boss in the Taiwanese underworld.

Shi Xiaoyu said, "So what if it is? But let me make it clear, I was completely unaware of this. You stole his girlfriend, so he plotted against you."

Damn it, Wang Keming really is one of her subordinates. No wonder she's so arrogant and managed to get the tape back. However, I won't stay with her for three days. I heard she has sadistic tendencies, and I don't want to be tortured to death by her. Anyway, knowing that the tape is in her hands makes things easier; there's always a chance to get it back.

Chapter 064 Waiting for the Rabbit

to Fall into the Trap Now the enemy is in the shadows, and we are in the open. We don't have any good options but to wait for them to come to us. The seven-day holiday is over, and today is the fourth day. I wonder if there will be any results in the remaining three days.

Xu Qing settled Shi Zhongtian in the ward outside, while I rested on Xu Qing's bed. This "soul-shifting technique" is really damaging my brain cells, making me a little dizzy. I should try to use it less in the future. When I was inside Shi Zhongtian's body, I could feel that Shi Zhongtian's physical condition was deteriorating day by day. I don't know how long he can hold on. The poison in his body has been temporarily suppressed by the medicine, and it has not further eroded Shi Zhongtian's brain, but there is no sign of improvement.

Zhang Ning sat on the edge of the bed and asked me, "What are your plans for the future?"

I replied, "What else can I do but go back to school?"

Although Shi Zhongtian's affair was somehow connected to me, I didn't want to get caught up in any conspiracy. I wanted to live a normal life and didn't want my sister to be implicated because of me.

Zhang Ning said, "Hmph, you little devil, there's no way you'd go back so easily. I bet you have no good intentions towards my cousin, always trying to take advantage of her."

I cried out that I was wronged, and Zhang Ning said, "What are you complaining about? Every time you transformed into Shi Zhongtian, you took the opportunity to touch and kiss my cousin. I haven't even settled accounts with you yet. I'm warning you, if you dare to have any wicked thoughts about my cousin, I'll cut you up."

I protested, "Shi Zhongtian is like this, do you want your cousin to live a life of widowhood?"

Zhang Ning said, "I don't care, as long as Shi Zhongtian is alive, I won't allow you to have any feelings for him."

The problem is, now that Shi Zhongtian and I are one, how can I tell the difference? But when a woman is jealous, you can't reason with her.

Zhang Ning said again, "Now that Shi Xiaoyu has our tapes, what are you going to do?"

I said, "What can I do? Aren't you two quite close? You should think of a way."

Zhang Ning said, "I only know her because of my cousin, we're not really friends. She's got her eye on you now and wants you to spend three days with her in exchange." Damn

it, she wants me to use my charm? I said, "If I really used my charm, would you be willing?"

Zhang Ning twisted my ear, "You wouldn't dare."

I thought to myself, it's not that I wouldn't dare, it's that I don't want to. It's just a few tapes, what can she do to me? Can she really send these things to my school? Now we know she has them, if they leak out again, Zhang Ning will naturally hold her accountable.

After resting for a while, I felt a little better, so I went out with Zhang Ning. Xu Qing had already put Shi Zhongtian to bed and was in the living room discussing the next steps with Shi Xiaoyu.

Xu Qing's plan was to spread the word that she wanted Shi Zhongtian discharged from the hospital and sent back to Shanghai for treatment. Then, she planned to have him retrieve the technical documents from the bank, hoping that those who admired him would be tempted to intervene. Moreover, this wasn't just to attract those who admired him; even if not for them, Xu Qing intended to take Shi Zhongtian back to Shanghai. Her company was in Shanghai, and constantly flying back and forth wasn't a sustainable solution. The technical documents were also crucial for the company's development, so they naturally needed to be brought back to Shanghai. If those people didn't act in Hong Kong, Shanghai would be Xu Qing's territory, making it much more difficult for them to make a move.

Xu Qing had already begun preparing the discharge paperwork and had also contacted the hospital in Shanghai. Shi Xiaoyu was responsible for arranging her intelligence network to closely monitor all of Shi Zhongtian's movements. These were critical times, so Zhang Ning naturally had to stay with Xu Qing, while I didn't have anything urgent to attend to until Shi Zhongtian went to the bank to retrieve the technical documents. I wanted to stay with Xu Qing and Zhang Ning, but Xu Qing's attitude towards me was a bit ambiguous. She already knew about my relationship with Shi Zhongtian, but she still couldn't accept having two Shi Zhongtians in the same room at the same time.

I returned to the hotel alone. Lin Shiyi was boredly watching TV with her sister. When she saw me come back, she said irritably, "You still remember to come back? Aren't you going to keep your god-sister company?"

She now knew that my relationship with Zhang Ning wasn't that of god-sister, so she was naturally very jealous, but she couldn't do anything to me. If she really angered me, and had to choose between them, I would choose Zhang Ning over her. In terms of knowledge, beauty, and temperament, Xiaoyi is inferior to Zhang Ning. Her only advantage is that she is younger and more lively. I think Xiaoyi is also suffering because of the fragrance on me, and has developed an inexplicable attachment to me. If it were any other girl, if her boyfriend slept with another woman, she would either slap him or break up with him immediately. I felt a little guilty towards her. She had been really good to me, yet I had been seeing other women behind her back. No wonder she was jealous.

I said, "Alright, Miss, don't be angry. Today and tomorrow, I'll only spend time with you and my sister, okay?"

Lin Shiyi said, "Hmph, that's more like it."

She turned to her sister and asked, "Sister, where are we going to play today?"

Her sister said, "I was too tired from playing yesterday, I want to rest. You two go play."

I think her sister wanted to give us two a chance to be alone. It's really hard on her; seeing other girls chatting and laughing with me, she has to pretend nothing's wrong. I think, are there too many women around me? I don't have time to spend with my sister properly and make her happy.

Lin Shiyi was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, sister, we're leaving."

She grabbed my hand and skipped out the door.

I asked, "Where do you want to go?"

Lin Shiyi replied, "How about we go to Macau?"

I was surprised: "You're so impulsive! How can your parents leave you with us like this?"

Lin Shiyi said, "Hmph, isn't it all for you? You always say you want to go to Hong Kong to win the lottery and then gamble in Macau!"

That's my dream! As the saying goes, people die for money, birds die for food. We all live to see a better life, and who doesn't dream of getting rich overnight?

I was also tempted. These past few days in Hong Kong, I'd been so busy spending time with Zhang Ning and Xiao Yi, and then dealing with Shi Zhongtian's affairs, that I'd completely forgotten about my get-rich-quick scheme. Since I have some free time today and tomorrow, a trip to Macau would be worthwhile. Otherwise, Xu Qing and I had planned to go to the bank to retrieve our things the day after tomorrow, and then we'd have to go home the day after that. We didn't know when we'd be able to come back again.

We didn't call my sister and Xiaoyi's parents, afraid they'd worry. Anyway, Hong Kong and Macau are so close, it's noon now, we'll come back in the evening, and they won't know unless we tell them. Soon, we arrived in Macau. We went straight to the Lisboa Hotel after getting off the ferry—a world-famous casino. I noticed that about half the people getting off the ferry were going to the casino. Xiaoyi held my hand, her face still a little pale. The waves were quite high when we got on, and the ferry was rocking a lot, making her a little dizzy. I asked with concern, "How are you? Are you feeling better?"

Xiaoyi said, "I'm fine, let's go in quickly."

Macau's casinos are among the world's three largest. While they may not be as famous or as large as the other two, they are the most popular. I heard that the average profit per gaming table here is ten times that of Las Vegas in the United States, which shows how popular gambling is among Chinese people and how much money they gamble.

Chinese people have a natural inclination towards gambling, and with the reform and opening up in recent years, some people have become wealthy first. While their material lives have improved, their spiritual lives haven't kept pace. Besides womanizing, gambling has become another major hobby for them. Ding Ling's father works in the Public Security Bureau and often tells us about the recent arrests of high-stakes gamblers, with stakes exceeding one million yuan. Even Lin Shiyi's father plays mahjong at home with a few friends, and winning hundreds of thousands of yuan in a single game is commonplace. Of course, if it's their own money, that's one thing; we can't control their spending, at most we'll feel annoyed and uncomfortable—comparison is the thief of joy.

But for some people, winnings in casinos are their own, but losses belong to the state. Newspapers frequently report on high-ranking officials who gambled away huge sums of money in Macau, ending up in jail after their scheme failed, or state-owned enterprise executives who gambled tens of millions in one night, causing the enterprise to go bankrupt and employees to lose their jobs. I wonder, who gave them such power? They can sign off on hundreds of millions of yuan with a single stroke of their pen. Are the auditing and approval systems just for show? This is all the country's money, the hard-earned money of ordinary people. Taxes are supposed to be for the people, but it seems they're being used for these "people"! I've seen some internal reports from Liu Ruolan; according to statistics, government officials or state-owned enterprise executives who frequent Macau casinos cause the country hundreds of millions in losses annually. I think that's already a underestimate; a corrupt official reportedly lost 30 million at a casino. Just thinking about it makes me furious.

Xiaoyi isn't interested in gambling; she only came today to pay me back. The casino entrance is lined with slot machines, also known as slot machines. You just insert a chip, pull the lever, and then it's up to the machine to pay you out. These are suitable for all ages; one chip might pay out tens of thousands, and the thrill of such high returns can attract many people. I saw many people feeding chips to various slot machines; it seems there are quite a few money-grubbers. Lin Shiyi was having a great time, stuffing in a bunch of chips, only to have them come out again. Twice, she actually came back with over a hundred chips, making her incredibly happy. She even managed to win over two thousand yuan. I sat listlessly next to her. Honestly, she said she came to Macau specifically to accompany me, but it turned out I was the one accompanying her. I'm not really interested in these slot machines; they're mostly played by older men and women, and girls like Lin Shiyi. If I played, wouldn't I be too low-class? Seeing Lin Shiyi enjoying herself, I told her it was okay for her to continue playing the slot machines while I went inside to take a look. I couldn't waste all my time on slot machines; I needed to broaden my horizons. I couldn't go back and tell my classmates that I passed by a casino without going in, only playing the slot machines.

There were quite a few people inside, but I just wandered around the lobby. I heard that those with public funds or big spenders have a special area; ordinary players aren't allowed in. The gambling equipment in the lobby was just like what I'd seen on TV—roulette, blackjack, dice, and the like.

I didn't have many chips, so I could only watch. I wandered around the casino, hearing various regional dialects. It seemed everyone had come together for a common goal. There were even people from my hometown among them; I never expected to hear my native accent here.

It was my first time in a casino, and I really didn't know where to start. Although I'd seen it in TV shows and novels, I still hesitated to bet in person. I saw other gamblers betting hundreds or even thousands, while I'd only managed to get 1000 yuan worth of chips, enough for two or three bets at most. I'm usually quite frugal, and throwing away hundreds of yuan at once felt a bit too much. After wandering around for a while, I still hadn't made a move.

Lin Shiyi waited outside for me for a long time before coming in to find me. Seeing me pacing around without placing a bet, she said, "Why aren't you betting? What's the point of just watching without playing? It's like coming for nothing."

I replied, "I don't have much capital. I can't compete. If the house wins, I won't have a chance to

win back my losses." Lin Shiyi said, "What's there to be afraid of? Even if they win, it's only a few hundred yuan. What's the big deal? It's not like you only lose. Besides, you

have 200,000 yuan in stocks. Why are you hesitant to invest this little bit?" This is different. While stock trading does involve gambling, it still involves analyzing company fundamentals and technical charts—the data is visible. Gambling is completely unpredictable.

After her words, I became tempted. I seized the opportunity and bet 200 yuan, but it was gone in an instant. I bet 300 yuan, and that was gone too. Lin Shiyi laughed, "You're really unlucky. I won over five thousand yuan!"

I was so angry! I said, "Go ahead and try to annoy me! If I get really frustrated with my losses, I'll bet you too!"

I only had a thousand chips left, five hundred in total. Damn it, I'll go all in! I bet my last chip, but it was gone again. Three bets, and 1000 yuan gone just like that. My sister will kill me if she finds out.

What bad luck! Why can't my special ability be used in the casino? If I could see through the cards or predict the dice rolls, I'd be invincible! But now, I'm going to slink away empty-handed.

Lin Shiyi saw my displeasure and didn't dare say anything more. I'd only placed the bet because she'd persuaded me. Xiao Yi cautiously asked me, "Xiao Xin, do you want me to give you 1000 yuan first so you can try to win it back? I've already won over 5000 yuan, so if I give you 1000, I'll still have 4000 yuan left, enough for tomorrow's expenses."

I had a vague feeling of unease, as if something was about to happen. I said, "Xiao Yi, let's go back."

Shi Zhongtian had just been to the bank today; it shouldn't be that someone is going to make a move so soon. Could it be something else? Damn it, 1000 yuan gone just like that, I'm really not willing to accept it. I think many people lose more and more because they're trying to win back their losses, and in the end, they might even lose their lives. Xiao Yi thought I was upset because I lost money, so she didn't say anything and went to exchange the chips as I suggested.

At the chip exchange counter, we saw a temporary notice that the ferry service was temporarily suspended due to rough seas. It seemed we couldn't go back anytime soon.

Xiao Yi said, "Now it's all over, we can't go back even if we wanted to. Xiao Xin, let's stay here tonight."

I saw Xiao Yi looking at me, her face slightly red, and a thought popped into my head: "Should we get one room or two?"

Xiao Yi blushed, "You naughty Xiao Xin."

Really, does "naughty" mean one room or two rooms? I thought to myself, was my earlier unease because of the storm at sea, making it impossible for us to go back? I hoped so; I didn't want anything else to happen in Hong Kong. Since we couldn't

go back for the time being, Xiao Yi didn't exchange her chips anymore, wanting to play a little longer. It seems girls can gamble too; Xiao Yi sat in front of the slot machine, enthusiastically stuffing chips into her hand. My hands were empty, so I could only watch her place bets—it was so embarrassing.

I looked around and suddenly spotted a familiar figure—it was Wang Keming, but the woman beside him wasn't Fang Xiuyun. Damn it, what's he doing here? It can't be just gambling, right? Is he here to report to his boss, Shi Xiaoyu? Maybe he's even carrying our recording tape. Why didn't he bring Fang Xiuyun with him? Is he keeping a mistress out there? Damn it, this guy can't even satisfy Fang Xiuyun, yet he wants to have multiple women on his hands? With his assets, is he even capable? For some reason, I've slept with Fang Xiuyun a few times, but seeing her boyfriend with other women behind her back, I no longer feel any guilt towards Wang Keming. If you can be with other women behind Fang Xiuyun's back, then Fang Xiuyun being with me is nothing special. This guy, his own hands aren't clean either, yet he dares to threaten me with the recording tape—that's too much.

Seeing Wang Keming, I can't help but think of the National Security Bureau. They'll probably be following us too. Being a National Security Bureau agent, although dangerous, is pretty good—you get to travel all over the world. I looked around but didn't see the two security bureau officers. Perhaps they were being monitored by the people here? I figured Wang Keming was just a nobody; Shi Xiaoyu had casually brought him to us. He couldn't possibly be an important figure in her intelligence network, and there was no need for the security bureau to follow him all over the world. Of course, it was also possible that the security bureau's tracking skills were too good for me to tell.

Chapter 65 Casino Storm

Since we couldn't go back to Hong Kong now, I could only kill time in the casino. Lin Shiyi was still playing her slot machine, while I went back to the casino to see what Wang Keming was up to. Of course, I didn't need to sneak around, otherwise I'd attract the casino's attention. There were cameras everywhere in the casino, intended to prevent staff from embezzling and to monitor whether gamblers were cheating; of course, it also served as a deterrent to those with ill intentions.

Wang Keming and his female companion were also playing points. I stood not far behind him, wanting to see how his luck would be.

Someone lightly patted my shoulder. I turned around and saw it was Ms. Li, the female agent from the Security Bureau, disguised as a tourist. She was accompanied by another woman, presumably her partner. Did the Security Bureau have too much money? Was it really worth the fuss over a nobody like Wang Keming?

Ms. Li gestured for me to go outside with her to a coffee shop, while the other woman stayed behind to continue monitoring Wang Keming.

Ms. Li explained that Wang Keming had brought some documents to Macau, including some obtained from Liu Ruolan. Of course, Ms. Li had already checked them beforehand. Naturally, the documents were all photographed on microfilm; no one would be foolish enough to carry a whole box of documents around. The woman with Wang Keming was his contact in Macau; the intelligence would be handed back to her and then forwarded to his superiors. I knew. These things would eventually reach Shi Xiaoyu, but I wondered if any of the discs or anything related to us were among them.

I'm not really interested in this kind of backstabbing intelligence work anymore. I just want to get my tapes back. If I lose those things, I don't care what secrets Wang Keming steals; that's the State Security Bureau's business, not mine. I don't want to get too involved, like Shi Zhongtian, and end up in a life-threatening situation. I haven't had enough yet.

I asked, "You called me out because you didn't want me to alert Wang Keming. Actually, it's nothing; he doesn't know about your relationship with me."

I still want to find a chance to get my things back from him. I hope the State Security Bureau won't stop me from getting close to Wang Keming again.

Miss Li laughed, "Not only will they not, but we even want you to deliberately approach him and plant a bug on him."

I said, "He's a spy too. If I plant a bug on him, that's like provoking a tiger. If he finds out, he'll definitely know it was me, and I'll be in big trouble later." Damn it

, she wants to use me as a pawn. Making a minor do something so dangerous—how could she even think of that?

Miss Li took out something, which looked like a button: "When you approach him later, just be flexible. If you don't have the chance, don't make a move. We'll think of another way. Don't worry, based on our observations these past few days, he's just a low-level member of this intelligence network, recently joined, and hasn't received professional training. He won't discover this."

She paused, then asked me, "Have you been in contact with a woman from Taiwan named Shi Xiaoyu these past few days?"

Damn, their information network is fast enough. They know so quickly that I've had contact with Shi Xiaoyu. I've only met her three times at most. Maybe they already know that Shi Xiaoyu is the mastermind behind this intelligence network, but they just don't know the specific organizational structure.

I said, "Yes, I know Zhang Ning, as you all know. Shi Xiaoyu is Xu Qing's husband's sister; I've only met her two or three times." Miss

Li said, "We know that. According to our intelligence, this Shi Xiaoyu might be Wang Keming's backer. Now that you know Shi Xiaoyu, it can help us learn more about her."

I knew she wasn't up to any good; she just wanted me to gather intelligence for them.

Miss Li and I talked for a while before parting ways. The thought of possibly playing the role of a secret agent made me a little excited. I went to the slot machines, and Lin Shiyi was still playing, with a small pile of chips in front of her. I asked her, and she had won nearly ten thousand again. Honestly, she said she only went to the casino to accompany me, but in the end, she won money while I lost. It seems she's back in high spirits and having a great time.

I asked her for the digital camera and went back into the casino. Lin Shiyi had won quite a bit of money and gave me 2,000 in chips, telling me to go back and try to win it all back. Damn it, trying to win back my losses with a woman's money, what bad luck!

Wang Keming was still playing cards, and he even had a pile of chips in front of him, so he must have won quite a bit of money. Damn it, am I the only one losing money today? I picked up my camera and took a few photos of Wang Keming and the woman next to him, including two shots of them chatting and laughing. Wasn't he threatening me with that tape? I'll take some couple photos of him too. If I send these photos to Fang Xiuyun, Wang Keming will definitely have a headache.

Wang Keming was a little nervous when he saw someone taking pictures. He looked up and saw it was me, and then he said angrily, "Kid, what are you taking pictures of?"

He tried to grab my camera, but I said, "Brother Wang, you've finally met your match. Now I have your photos too. How about I trade you what you have?"

Wang Keming didn't get angry but laughed instead. He said, "You think you can threaten me with this? Haven't you heard of 'catching someone in the act'? I've been with other women at the casino, and it's no big deal. But your stuff is irrefutable evidence. Do you think I'd trade with you?"

I said, "You wait. You'd better clean up your act and not let me catch you in the act."

Just now, when he tried to grab my camera, I had already slipped that "button" into his pocket in a flash. It was a completely subconscious action; taking the button out and putting it back in took only a second.

The casino security guards, seeing we knew each other, didn't interfere and cleared us out of the way. Having completed my task, I took the opportunity to leave. At the entrance, I ran into Miss Li again. She smiled at me, indicating I'd done a good job. Damn it, I didn't get any reward for doing a good job. If Wang Keming knew it was me who put my stuff online for everyone to share, Zhang Ning and Liu Ruolan would definitely kill me.

It was starting to get dark, and the storm showed no signs of abating. It seemed we'd have to spend the night in Macau. I called my sister to tell her we were in Macau and couldn't go back to Hong Kong tonight. Naturally, I was in for a scolding. My sister also specifically warned me not to mess around with Lin Shiyi. I was stunned; she should have said that to Lin Shiyi, not me.

The casino had everything – food, lodging, entertainment – and we didn't even need to leave the main entrance; we ate dinner at one of its restaurants. During that time, we ran into Wang Keming and that woman again. Wang Keming said, "I didn't expect you to be so popular with women. Is it all thanks to your tongue?"

I replied, "Yes, I advise you to learn how. Otherwise, you only have long legs, a long nose, and long ears, perfect for being a paparazzi, but your little brother is short, and your time in bed is short too. That's three long and two short, not good for explaining to women."

The woman next to him couldn't help but laugh, leaving Wang Keming speechless.

Lin Shiyi asked me, "Do you know him? You seem to have a grudge against him."

Damn it, of course we have a grudge, but I don't want to tell Xiaoyi the reason.

After dinner, Xiaoyi and I went to play separately. We've booked a room here, so we can go to sleep when we're tired. The casino is open 24 hours, and I see Xiaoyi is having a great time. I wonder when she'll finally go to sleep. It seems gambling is human nature, regardless of gender.

I kept an eye on Wang Keming and his companion, but Ms. Li from the Security Bureau was nowhere to be seen. It seemed they were off enjoying the results of my eavesdropping. Wang Keming and the woman played around for a while longer before going upstairs. Due to the storm, many people were stranded in Macau today, and the casinos naturally had various rooms available for gamblers to rest. Wang Keming and his group were no exception; they would have to spend the night here.

I spent another half hour downstairs before going upstairs myself. Ms. Li's intelligence work was excellent; she had already told me their room number, so I didn't need to find out their room number through other means.

It was still early, and most of the gamblers hadn't gone upstairs to rest yet. I stood at the door of Wang Keming's room, wondering how I could rush in and take some pictures of Wang Keming's passionate lovemaking to get revenge. I'm not a professional spy; I'm not capable of picking locks with a wire. Stealing or tricking the key from the staff was wishful thinking. Knocking on the door? How could I take pictures of their lovemaking then?

For a moment, I was at a loss. Suddenly, I saw a pile of bed sheets across the hallway. Apparently, some couple had gotten their hands wet and thrown the sheets out for the waiter to collect. I picked up the sheets, and sure enough, they smelled of semen mixed with vaginal fluid. I didn't care about anything else. I crumpled the sheets into a ball, stuck them to my left shoulder, looked around to make sure no one was watching, and slammed them against the door. The door opened with a thud, and before it hit the wall, I grabbed the edge of the door with my right hand and gently closed it. This series of actions seemed to happen without my conscious thought, as naturally as using a key to open a door. I'm used to these occasional supernatural abilities now; this is probably just the stuff Shi Zhong left in my memory at work.

Without thinking, I grabbed my camera, rushed into the bedroom, and started snapping pictures of the bed. What I saw was indeed worth photographing. Wang Keming was lying naked on the bed, his hands and feet tied to the headboard and footboard respectively, and a woman's high heel was stuffed into his mouth. This is a common SM pose in adult films. However, the protagonists in adult films are mostly women, while the protagonist here is Wang Keming. I didn't expect him to enjoy this kind of masochistic game. These photos would be very interesting if given to Fang Xiuyun.

Suddenly, I realized I was alone; where was the woman? A bad feeling crept into my heart. I turned to leave, but heard a woman's voice: "What, not even a cup of tea?"

I turned around, my eyes lit up, but my heart sank.

Chapter 066 At the mercy of others .

The woman stood by the door, blocking my way. Damn it, she was prepared all along. Looks like I've delivered myself to her doorstep.

Since I'm here, I might as well make the best of it. If they ask, I'll say I came to take photos, to catch Wang Keming in bed with another woman, to retaliate for his threatening me with the recording. I had already laid the groundwork in the casino, saying I would find an opportunity to catch him in bed with another woman; now I'm just fulfilling my promise. Besides, the two women from the Security Bureau are probably listening to what's going on here, and they'll come to my rescue if anything happens to me.

With such a beautiful woman in front of me, I'm naturally happy to admire her. This woman has a really good figure; being a special agent, of course, requires maintaining a good figure, otherwise how can she run fast in an emergency? She wasn't completely naked, wearing a bra, panties, and stockings, but she wasn't wearing shoes. One high heel was stuffed into Wang Keming's mouth, and the other was in her hand. Damn it, I hope she doesn't hit me on the head with that thing. A woman's high heel is a deadly weapon; if you get hit on the head by that sharp heel, it can even make a hole. Lin Shiyi and her friends' self-defense techniques specifically include using high heels as weapons.

Her bra barely supported the lower edge of her breasts, making them even more perky, exposing most of her breast flesh and nipples. The stockings had a wide lace trim at the top, with two straps connecting to the garter belt at her waist. A tiny pair of panties barely covered part of her vulva, I thought. If she replaced the high heels with a whip, she'd be a total SM queen. I've bought this kind of lingerie for my sister, Zhang Ning, and Fang Xiaoyi, and they all looked sexy on them, but this one looked like a sadist. Looks like it's all in my head; the same clothes have different effects on different women.

But let Wang Keming enjoy it; I can't handle it. I don't like playing sadomasochistic games, but I dislike being sadomasochized even more. Besides, I don't have the mind for such wicked thoughts right now. I'm thinking about how to escape and protect the photos on my camera from being deleted. But the queen is blocking the door. She's a genuine special agent; forcing my way in is impossible. I broke in earlier using Shi Zhongtian's mysterious memories, but I don't know if they'll work now. I don't want to take the risk. What if my powers fail and I get a hole punched in my head by a high heel? That would be terrible.

I said, "Well, I... I just came to take a few photos. I'll take my leave now that I've disturbed your good time."

I knew this reason wasn't very good, but I didn't care.

The Queen said, "Just taking photos? It can't be that simple. Look what this is?"

She was holding a button in her hand, the one I had just slipped to Wang Keming. I hadn't expected her to find out so quickly; this woman was no ordinary person. Naturally, I could only play dumb, shaking my head and saying, "It's just a button. Do you think I'm stupid? Don't you even recognize this?"

The Queen laughed, "You're not really stupid, you're just pretending."

She casually tossed the button into a cup; soaked in water, it was ruined. I imagine Miss Li and the others must be feeling very uneasy now.

She went out to check the door again; the lock was slightly deformed, but the door hadn't been broken down, and no security guards or anyone else had been alerted. The Queen closed the door again and said, "This way of opening a door isn't something just anyone can do. You're really skilled."

Of course I'm skilled. I smashed and grabbed the door in one smooth motion, but I couldn't do it again. It was a completely subconscious action. If I told her it was Shi Zhongtian's memory replaying in my mind, she might really think I'm stupid.

I said, "Haven't you seen TV? That's how secret agents break down doors. I learned it from them."

The woman sat on the sofa and said, "Sit down."

The room wasn't big, just a bedroom and a bathroom. Besides a large bed, there were two sofas. Of course, that's usually enough; many people don't even need sofas, just get on the bed, do their business, and leave.

She sat on the sofa near the door, so I had to sit on the sofa further inside. Looking at Wang Keming on the bed, it was truly obscene and hilarious; I even wanted to take a few more pictures to remember it. Wang Keming was naked and tied to the bed, a high-heeled shoe stuffed in his mouth, looking like a masochist. He was naturally extremely embarrassed by my gaze, but unable to move, he could only let me admire him. His penis was no longer imposing, limp and curled up, not worth looking at at all.

The Queen glanced at me, "I heard you're quite skilled in bed."

Damn, it seems she knows about my feud with Wang Keming. I glanced at Wang Keming on the bed. This guy was the one who caused me so much trouble—first his tapes, then the security bureau, then Shi Xiaoyu bothering me after I got to Hong Kong, and now this SM queen. The queen laughed, "You don't need to look at him. If you hadn't stolen his girlfriend, he wouldn't have threatened you."

She got up and sat next to me, leaning against me, one leg intentionally or unintentionally placed between my legs. I felt a little uncomfortable and shifted.

The queen laughed, "What, still embarrassed? I heard you're not that old, but you have quite a few girlfriends."

I said, "What does it matter to you whether I have many girlfriends or not?"

"Of course it matters! Your girlfriends are all influential figures; we'd like to ask them for some information."

Damn it, you don't have to be so blunt about getting intelligence. I said, "They're just company owners, they don't have anything to give you. You've come to the wrong people. Even if you wanted something, you should go to them, what use is it to me?"

The Queen said, "You're very useful. Just ask, and they'll give you whatever you want."

I said, "Then why should I ask? Do you think you can threaten me with just a few tapes? Fine, you can make it public. It's just private matters between men and women, it doesn't break the law. At most, I'll get expelled from school, nothing to be afraid of."

We already knew each other's backgrounds, so we spoke directly, no need to beat around the bush. Damn it, I was just the lead in an adult film, and there weren't any perverted games in it. Why are they using it like a nuclear weapon to threaten me?

"You're not afraid, but your girlfriends might not think so. They're people of status and pride, they wouldn't want these things made public. Besides, we don't need much, we won't make things difficult for you."

Who are you kidding? Wang Keming has already asked Liu Ruolan for military-related information.

I said, "Don't bother with this anymore. I've already dealt with your big boss, Shi Xiaoyu. Now Zhang Ning knows the thing is in your hands. If something goes wrong, she'll hold Shi Xiaoyu accountable. I think you know about Zhang Ning and Shi Xiaoyu's relationship, right? Aren't you supposed to report to her tomorrow? You'll hand the thing over to her then. I think if Zhang Ning asks for the tape, Shi Xiaoyu won't refuse. Don't try to threaten me with this now."

The Queen said, "It seems you know quite a bit, even about Shi Xiaoyu. Those two women told you, didn't they?"

It seems the Security Bureau's operation has been exposed. I said, "So what if they are? They've been watching you for a long time. They know your every move. Give me back the tape now, or I'll sue you for extortion."

She laughed, "Sue me? What evidence do you have?"

I said, "They're from the National Security Bureau. They know about Wang Keming threatening me."

"Haha, you little fool, you're being sold out and you're still helping them count the money. You really think they're National Security Bureau agents?"

Damn it, aren't they? I felt a little uneasy. These past few days, I'd felt that there was something off about those two National Security Bureau people. I'd had several encounters with them, and it was always that female agent surnamed Li who came to us. We'd also had her check the documents before handing them over to Wang Keming. Besides, they claimed to be from the Shanghai National Security Bureau, but no one from the local National Security Bureau was involved in our investigation. That wasn't quite in accordance with procedure. When Ding Ling's father's men went to other places to handle cases, they always got a letter of introduction first and then contacted the local public security bureau upon arrival. At the time, Liu Ruolan and I were also prejudiced, assuming they had work IDs. Besides, we never imagined someone would impersonate them. Damn it, there are so many fakes these days, even fake hymens, so getting a fake security bureau work ID is no problem at all. We didn't even think to verify their identities. Now that I think about it, they used the opportunity to check all of Liu Ruolan's family's documents, and it seems they had already copied the useful information. We were even stupid enough to agree to provide more intelligence later, making those fakes laugh.

I felt uneasy, but I still said tough: "If they weren't from the security bureau, why would they be watching you?"

"They're in the same line of work as us, of course they have to compete. Who told you, you little fool, to be used, sending out a bunch of intelligence, thinking you were serving the country?"

Damn it, now we can't report her and Wang Keming, and instead, Liu Ruolan and I are the ones who leaked state secrets. Maybe the real security bureau is already watching us. I thought to myself, "When I get home, I'll report this to the Security Bureau. We were also deceived; we didn't intentionally leak secrets. Our intention was to help the Security Bureau, but we were helping fake agents.

" The Queen said, "You little thing are quite sought after, huh? How about it, are you willing to cooperate with us?"

I said, "Why should I cooperate?"

Just for a few tapes, they want me to obey? Shi Xiaoyu even wants to play with my people. I tried to get up and leave, but she stepped on my crotch and made me sit back on the sofa. I held her foot and tried to remove it, saying, "If you want me to cooperate, have your boss, Shi Xiaoyu, talk to me."

The Queen said, "Do you think Shi Xiaoyu is my boss?"

I was stunned. What? She's not with Wang Keming and Shi Xiaoyu? The information from those two fake agents was fake? Things are getting more and more complicated. Damn it, I'm not playing this game anymore. Now Shi Xiaoyu and Wang Keming are in one organization, the two fake agents are in another, and now this Queen seems to be in yet another organization. Who knows what other people will appear in the future? I haven't lived enough yet; there are still a bunch of women waiting for me to ravage. I don't want to get caught up in these conspiracies, or I might not even know how I died. The problem is, it seems like all these factions have their eyes on me and want to use my relationship with this girlfriend to get some intelligence. Zhang Ning and Xu Qing are just company bosses, and even Liu Ruolan can only get the worst intelligence. Why are they going to such lengths to deal with me? Is there some hidden reason, or some other purpose?

I said, "I don't care who you are, I'm not going to get intelligence for any of you anymore."

I pushed her away forcefully, jumped up, and rushed towards the door, but before I could take two steps, the Queen tripped me, and she stepped on my back, rendering me unable to move. I struggled fiercely, "Let me go, I won't leave, okay?"

The Queen released me, letting me sit back on the sofa. She then sat on the armrest beside me, gently stroking my face, "You'd better be good, or I won't like it anymore."

She placed one foot on my crotch, playfully teasing me with her toes, causing my penis to involuntarily harden. Damn it, trying to use her beauty to seduce me? I have plenty of beautiful women around me; she thinks she can make me do anything? She's kidding. Of course, a wise man doesn't fight a losing battle. I thought I'd agree first, and once I was out the door, I'd immediately back out and see what she could do to me. I said, "How do you want me to cooperate? Is it by giving you intelligence?"

The Queen took a capsule from her bag and said, "Don't rush, please take one of our specially formulated nutritional pills."

I was startled. Damn it, were they trying to make me take a slow-acting poison? "Have you been reading too many martial arts novels? Making me take this stuff, and then I have to take an antidote every year?"

What if they don't give me the antidote? I'll be dead! The Queen said, "You little brat, you're the one who's been reading too many novels. Alright, open your mouth obediently. You don't want me to use force, do you?" Damn

it, forcing me to take the pill and making me open my mouth myself, but I knew I couldn't resist, so I had no choice but to open my mouth and swallow the pill. It tasted a little bitter. I asked, "What the hell is this poison? What are the consequences?"

I wanted to know so I could go to the hospital for a stomach pump and detoxification.

The Queen said, "You don't need to ask. It will naturally work. If you think it's fake, that's fine too. Your life is yours anyway. You can disobey us, and you'll know the consequences yourself."

Damn, is she playing mind games? But this is a matter of life and death. Better safe than sorry. It seems I have no choice but to let her control me now.

I said, "Alright, now that you've given me the drug, what else do you want me to do?"

"Don't rush, this is just the beginning."

She started to take off my clothes. I said, "What, did you give me an aphrodisiac?"

Now I didn't resist in vain, and I took off my clothes myself without her having to lift a finger. Damn, what can she do to me? I'm just playing with her. I'll play her to death in bed later.

The Queen looked at my body and said, "I didn't realize you were so muscular." She

then squeezed and played with my penis, making it even harder. The Queen laughed, "Looks like you really have some assets. No wonder so many women can't live without you. I wonder how it'll be later?"

I said, "You just want to play with me, why aren't you doing it yet?"

Wang Keming was still lying on the bed, so I had to sit on the sofa. It was the first time I'd been naked in front of another man, and I felt very uncomfortable. I wanted to finish quickly and leave. Lin Shiyi was probably looking for me everywhere right now. I turned off my phone when I came in; she must be frantic.

The Queen said, "Don't rush. Aren't you good at serving women? Serve me well today."

Damn it, even though I have tricks for serving women, those women all have feelings for me. You and I have only just met, and you even forced me to take poison. How could I possibly serve you well? Kissing a woman's honey pot is enjoyable for both lovers, but serving a woman you have no feelings for is torture. Besides, you've slept with countless men, maybe you were just with Wang Keming. I don't want to kiss your cunt.

Seeing my hesitation, the Queen said, "Looks like if I have to do it, you won't be so comfortable."

She took off her stockings, pushed me to the ground, and I struggled but couldn't get them off, so she tied me up with the stockings. I said, "You really think you're an SM queen, liking to tie men up?"

She touched my face: "I'm doing this for your own good, you'll see soon enough."

Now I'm just like Wang Keming, except I don't have a high heel stuffed in my mouth.

I felt waves of heat in my stomach and said, "What kind of medicine did you give me? Why am I so hot?"

"Nothing, just the effects of the medicine."

Damn, I knew it was the medicine even without you saying it. It seems she was telling the truth; this medicine might really be able to control my life.

The Queen took out several more things from her bag: a syringe, a bottle of medicine, and a scalpel. Damn, what is she planning now? She smiled sweetly at me and said, "Don't worry, it's just an injection to ensure the treatment is effective. It might hurt a little later, so you have to bear with it and not move around too much, otherwise I won't be responsible for any side effects."

Damn, I wonder what tricks she's up to next.
