When West Pole arrived, he was also stunned by the scene in front of him, half speechless.

Rebel wasn’t dead yet, but there was only one breath left, his blood soaked the remaining swath of land, and the crotch of his pants was a dark red, and the smell of blood was nauseating as if it couldn’t be dispersed in the humid and muggy rainforest.

Green Pear stood right in front of Reb, watching him silently, waiting for the moment when he was completely dead.

“Come on.” Xiji frowned as he walked over to take a look, “The pupils are all dilated, there’s only one death left.”

Qing Li didn’t move until Rebel was completely cut off, then she raised the bow in her hand and lifted her foot towards the mountain.

“He kind of deserved it, the body thrown here will soon be eaten by poisonous insects and beasts, not even bones will be left.” Xiji followed, “He will definitely be an animal in his next life.”

He rambled on a lot, Qing Li had no reaction from beginning to end, until he realized that the direction wasn’t quite right, “What are you still going for, Uncle Chen has withdrawn all the people, Liang Jin will be responsible for the compensation.”

“Compensation?” Qing Li finally opened her mouth, she looked back at Xiji, “How much of the compensation will get Martha’s life back, do you know where the money ends up going back to? If one percent of it can land in the hands of Masha’s mom and sister, that would be considered Masha’s life in heaven.”

West pole can’t understand, “That’s their own family matters, it’s not for us to solve, in the end, Yue Zhi compensated the money that is considered to be humane.”

“You go back, talk to mister, I will go back at night.” Qing Li touched the saber on her back, “Don’t you follow me.”

Because of the mountains blocking the light, it always got dark a little earlier in the town than elsewhere, and by the time Aonashi reached Martha’s house, there was only a dim ring of daylight left.

She walked into Martha’s house, there were a lot of people inside, all the residents of the town, they came to help Martha to collect the burial, the funeral, everyone was silent, no one talked about what happened to Martha.

Green Pear saw the bag she had bought by Martha’s casket, she walked up to Martha’s mother and unsurprisingly saw the bruises on the other woman’s face again, “Why did you get hit?”

Masha’s mother was sad and mournful, looking dead, “I want to do the puja for Masha, so that her soul can rest in peace, and in her next life she can be reincarnated in a good family and no longer suffer, and he is not willing to pay for it ……”

Qing Li asked, “Where is he?”

Masha’s mother looked at Qing Li’s cold and desperate eyes and suddenly began to tremble, her eyes blank and unaware of what to do, she bit her own lips, and the sharp pain coming from the corner of her mouth that had been slapped and cracked by a slap brought her back to reality.

She looked down at her youngest daughter who had been snuggling up to her from the beginning and closed her eyes and pointed in a direction.

Green Pear made her way across the narrow yard to the back of the house, the door to the room was ajar and the loud sound of a television set was mixed with a man’s grunts from inside.

The man had let his daughter be raped and killed. This man let his daughter be raped and killed, took Rebel’s compensation money to go gambling all night, and came back drunk, only to beat up his wife because of his daughter’s funeral.

There were times when Aonashi simply couldn’t understand the world, why Martha was dead and why this man was still alive.

Now she didn’t think it mattered, if she couldn’t figure it out, she just did what she had to do.

A foot kicked open the door, Qing Li walked in, she looked around, picked up a rusty fruit knife on the table, then walked over to the couch and stomped on the man’s chest, aiming the knife in her hand at the other person’s chest.

The man was so stomped on that he could hardly breathe, and finally opened his cloudy eyes, and the moment he stared in shock, the knife plunged into his chest, poking into his lungs, and spinning around in a cruel circle.

Breathing instantly blocked, his face rose purple but could not shout, only hard ho hiss ho hiss gasping for air, a face of fear looking at Qing Li, fell from the sofa to the ground.

Qing Li pulled the knife out, blood splattered on her face, a drop fell down low along her slender eyelashes, dripping a trace under her eyes, like blood tears.

She shoved the knife in her hand into the man’s hand, stood up and took two steps back, looked coldly for a moment, and turned away.

The man’s breathing grew fainter and fainter, he struggled to crawl towards the door but was enveloped by a shadow, he raised his eyes and it was the familiar face of his wife.

He reached out towards his wife but couldn’t manage to get a full sentence out, then he looked at the rebellious wife in anger and horror and slowly closed the door, just as he had closed the door to his daughter’s room last night.

A punctured lung would either kill him by asphyxiation or by blood loss, and either way, he would have to suffer through those last ten minutes.

Qing Li returned to the manor with a face full of blood, the motorcycle ran wildly up the hill, the wind killed into her eyes, her eyelashes fluttered a little, but did not shed a single tear.

Back at the manor, it was already completely dark, she saw the warm light imprinting the intricate and exquisite Tiffany glass in a dreamy and gentle way, threw down her helmet and pushed the door in.

Yue Zhi was sitting on the sofa next to the floor lamp reading a book, when he heard the movement he looked up, his brows immediately wrinkled, he put down the book and got up, a few steps to Qing Li, “Injured?”

Qing Li wiped her face, the blood had dried up and couldn’t be wiped off, “It’s not my blood.”

The air was a little silent, she stood straight, not knowing what she was thinking, or just simply fuming.

Yue Zhi sighed and pulled her hand to the bathroom, taking down her gloves and helping her wipe all the blood off her face and hands before pressing her down to sit at the dining table.

Greenleaf looked up, “What are you doing, sir?”

“Warming up a glass of milk for you, drink it so you can sleep.” Yue Zhi stirred the milk in the milk pot, giving off a sweet smell.

“Sir, I once heard someone say …… that you should not make karmic ties at will, because the karmic ties between people are very subtle, and if you make ties easily, you might interfere with other people’s destinies.” Qing Li looked out the window, “It’s all my fault, if it wasn’t for me, Rebel wouldn’t have picked on Martha, and Martha wouldn’t have died.”

“This matter is endless if you count it like this.” Yue Zhi placed the warmed milk in front of Qing Li, “Rebel holds a grudge against you because of the test, and the test is an inevitable procedure for me here, I know you because of your stepmother Widow, and the reason why you’re in Indonesia is because your mother was abducted …… Want to keep counting? Speaking of which, if I hadn’t had to leave you behind for the party last night, you would have gone back to Martha and maybe saved her, and more to the point, I shouldn’t have recruited Reb from the beginning, so it’s all my fault.”

“Of course not!” Aoori hurriedly looked up, “It has nothing to do with mister, no one knew this would happen, it’s that scum, even if it wasn’t Martha it would have been some other girl, so it’s all that scum Reb’s fault.”

“Isn’t that the right way to think about it.”

Aonashi looked up and reached out to grab the glass, the heat of the milk coming through and calming her, she shook her head slowly, “I understand.”

“Even if it’s not because of you, it might be because of someone else, if this is Martha’s fate, it’s pointless to blame anyone but Rebel, who is responsible.” Yue Zhi flicked on her head, “Don’t think about it, drink the milk and go get some rest, tomorrow we’re going on a mission.”

The mission successfully diverted Qing Li’s attention, she took a big gulp of milk, “What mission?”

“Two days ago the cargo ship that arrived in the Philippines had a dozen containers that were loaded from India, at that time when the goods were reported it was said that they were electronic products and high grade textiles, the captain also opened the boxes and inspected them, but in the Philippines when it was transiting and inspected the contents all turned out to be cheap cotton yarns, and the Indian consignor filed a demand for compensation of seventy million dollars against us, you and West Pole go and check out what is really going on. what’s going on.” Yue Qi said lightly.

Qing Li heard, “Seventy million dollars? Isn’t this a very serious matter?”

“Either the shipper’s side is playing tricks with me, wanting to get something for nothing from me, or the people on the ship are supervising the theft, or the people on the Philippine port side have moved, as for which one it is, I’ll leave it to you and Xicai.” Yue Zhi smiled, “This is the first serious mission, do your best.”

Qing Li nodded, “Since there is no way for the police to help mister deal with this problem, then leave it to Xiji and I. I will definitely not let mister down.”

Yue Zhi touched her head, “Good girl.”

Because she and Xiji were taking a flight to Manila, Philippines, she woke up at five in the morning and packed up all her things.

As soon as she arrived at the living room, she was mocked by Xiji pointing at the crossbow on her back, “You’re out of your mind, can we get on the plane with this, don’t bring any of the weapons, when we get to the Philippines, someone will naturally bring them to us, we’re going on an investigation this time, we’re not escorts, pack light and travel simple.”

In the end, Qing Li’s luggage was only a duffel bag.

The day was still young, but Yue Zhi still came down to specifically send her like last time.

“Remember to contact me when you land, be sure to listen to Xiji, although he looks unreliable, but I’m very relieved when he does things, you’re inexperienced, don’t be forceful.” Yue Qi instructed.

Xiji expressed his shock, “After so many years, when I go out on a mission except for stabbing a mess and returning the results, did you ask me one more time, how come you are so soft-hearted lately?”

“Ah Li is different.” Yue Zhi said faintly.

“Where is it different? I’m not human?” Xiji had an expression of being let down by a negative man.

“After all, she is a little girl.” Yue Zhi said.

As the only female in the elite mercenary group, Qing Li did not want to be treated favorably because of her gender, but hearing Yue Zhi say this, she still inevitably felt a sense of reassurance of being pampered.

“Don’t worry sir.” Aonashi said, her eyes sliding over Yue Zhi’s cuffs, where the pearl cuffs she had given him were pinned, “I’ll bring you a gift when I come back.”

“I’ll be waiting for you then.”
