Chapter 7

After that lunch of fresh fish, it seemed like Aonashi was just starting to be officially tested.

She sensed that she was being watched, but couldn’t shake it off, even if she shook off the other person with a furious run, within an hour’s rest, that person would catch up again.

There were at least ten examiners for this examination, West Pole for sure, but normally he wouldn’t get directly involved and fight her head on, so that she wouldn’t have any chance of winning, it wouldn’t be fair enough.

His main task was to supervise the examination, even though life and death had their own destiny, he still had to try to avoid vicious incidents.

Of the rest, the only one she was sure of was Reb, who had come to her door herself, but it certainly wasn’t him who was chasing after the shadowy one.

She knew Reb wouldn’t give up, but he would never be so able to keep his composure and chase her for over eight hours without a word.

Green Pear glanced at the moon in the sky, she had only just lost the man behind her, she couldn’t just be forced to expend her energy, so she had to take every opportunity to rest.

After setting up the trap, she climbed up a large tree and used the sling bag she had surrendered from Rebel to hang herself from a thick branch, curling up into a ball and closing her eyes, like a fledgling sleeping in a bird’s nest.

This kind of hanging bag was made of soft yet strong material, waterproof and cut-proof, although it couldn’t completely protect against poisonous insects and snakes, it could avoid other wild beasts and the vast majority of venomous insects, and it could also insulate against moisture, which could put one’s mind at ease quite a bit.

And she had also sprinkled snake repellent powder on the trunks of the surrounding trees, so she could say it was pretty safe.

Although it was quite a bit easier than expected, for almost twenty-four hours, her spirit had been in a state of high alert and she was constantly running, so as soon as her eyes closed, she immediately fell asleep.

Because she hadn’t slept soundly, she had been dreaming.

Before the age of six, even though she knew that she had a brother who was three years younger and that her parents were monstrously close, it didn’t affect the fact that she thought that she was this perceived little princess of the Qing family.

She was really quite happy back then, her depressed mother would smile softly at her every day, she would dress her up in tiered princess dresses and make her pretty, she would talk to her, tell her stories and memorize poems in Chinese, which she learned at that time, but the other person didn’t teach her to write.

Hansa Ching was the same, every time she came she would give her many small gifts, those expensive snacks, toys, clothes, she lacked nothing, and didn’t know what it meant to be troubled, although she was not very talkative since she was a child and was rather introverted and reticent, but she was full and warm inside.

At the age of six, she lost not only her mother, but her father as well; Hansa Ching hardly ever came back to see her again, ignoring her, and she was handed over to her rightful wife, Viktor, and went from being the daughter of a favored lover, the Ching family’s first lady, to being Cinderella in the kitchen, a maid, and Viktor’s punching bag.

She numbly accepted her fate, either to be sold by Viktor to whichever man she wanted after the age of fifteen, or to be abused to death, it was unclear which was more tragic.

For those twelve years of not seeing the light of day, she told herself stories every night, the Chinese tones getting stranger and stranger and the stories drifting away from what they were in the first place, the imprint her Chinese mother left on her just fading away with time.

That is, until she overheard Vito on the phone when she went to find Ching Sudi and tried to get the other woman to buy some medicine for Kanojin.

There were two main things, one was to sell her ten million dollars to an old man, and the other was to buy a rubber plantation under false pretenses to Yue Zhi, to lure the other party to the Qing family’s estate in Bandung, Indonesia, and then ambush and kill them, and to take advantage of the chaos to buy back the two commercial lines of Indonesian rubber and palm oil export from Yue Zhi’s hands at a low price, to raise the price of the Qing family’s rubber and palm oil export, and to depress the cost of transportation.

She had heard of Yue Zhi’s name, from the mouths of those businessmen who had negotiated with Vito, and even from the servants of the Qing family.

A mysterious and powerful big man, secretly known as the “King of Southeast Asia”, has his own private army, financial strength and force are very strong, is a person who can not be messed with.

At that time, she did not want to take advantage of this to do something, Vito what to do has nothing to do with her, she just for her own about to be sold out of the fate of a little bewildered.

She forced herself to take the medicine from Ching Sudi and went back to the room where the servants were staying, the maids were cramped two-roomers, she was in a room with Ganojin’s own sister, and Ganojin was staying in the big bunk room for the male servants, which was right next door.

As soon as she entered the door, there were immediately a few obscene and sticky lines of sight plastered on her lightly dressed body, and without changing her color, she walked to Kanojin’s bedside, changed the hanky to wipe her face, brought water and fed her medicine, very calmly.

Ganojin’s own sister was the same; it wasn’t that she couldn’t leave, but there was no longer a place that would give her a bonus of half a million rupiah (about two hundred and thirty dollars) after each time she accompanied a guest, and would also let her brother go to an expensive private school with the young master for free.

She even prayed that she would be able to be more numb and last longer to save enough money for her brother Ganojin’s college education.

But she didn’t last until that day after all.

The man who was working with Vito to harm Yue Zhi came over to meet Vito, and Kanojin’s sister went to accompany him to a drink, and heard that not only were they going to take Qingli, but they were going to sell Kanojin along with him.

She fought hard but was severely injured by the man’s henchmen after being □□□ and died in despair on her bed.

Before dying she took Aonashi’s hand and begged her, “Take my brother to escape, please, don’t let him be sold, boys are different, he will be tortured to death, he’s only fifteen ……”

From the time Aonashi was six years old, this girl was the only one who still took care of her as a young lady, she treated the other as if she were her own sister, so she wanted to fulfill her sister’s last wish.

She and Kanojin drew up a rough plan, which was to rescue Yue Zhi and then seek freedom in return for saving her life.

It was only because she vaguely remembered the story her mother had told, where the mermaid saved the prince, and the prince took her out of the sea in return.

The process had been rocky, but luckily it had a happy ending, and she had left the Green family, and had even avenged her sister’s death by beating the man who had killed her sister to death with the head of a vacuum cleaner.

Everything would change for the better, she was going to pass the test, stay by Yue Zhi’s side, get higher authority and freedom, and everything would change for the better.

The dream ended, Qing Li instantly opened her eyes, probed out of the hanging bag and fired a shot towards the bottom!

There was no movement on the other side, but she was sure someone had chased her here.

She dug out of the sling bag, jumped down from the tree, and rolled on the ground before ducking into a bush not far away.

Holding her gun up and waiting in silence for half an hour, she realized something was wrong when dark shadows swept by, a sharp pain came from her wrist, and the PPK in her hand was kicked out of her hand.

She immediately stomped up and kicked towards her opponent, but he nimbly dodged it.

The two were entangled in a fight, the moon had set and the time was the latter part of the night, she was surprised that she had slept for more than five hours in this situation, it seemed that her opponent was rather soft on her.

Even the fighting was, she could clearly feel that her opponent’s fighting skills were definitely above hers, but her opponent didn’t let her win or get hurt.

She realized that this was not going to work, the purpose of the test was not for her to win over any of the examiners, but rather to hold out for three days without being caught with the examiners chasing her, so her goal now was not to win the fight, but to smoothly escape and get away from the chase.

In her afterglow she saw a glowing thread and realized that this examiner hadn’t destroyed her trap, just avoided it, so there was still something she could use.

As she fought and retreated that way, she saw an opportunity to pull a dart out of the bag on her belt and throw it, the momentary distraction allowing her to take a heavy punch from her opponent, her mind blinded and her mouth instantly filled with the taste of blood.

She fell to the ground, the other party immediately bullied up, she hastily rolled twice, the other party is also in hot pursuit, see the hand is about to catch her, but the fingertips abruptly away.

The opponent’s ankles and wrists were caught by the rope, the whole person was suspended in mid-air, and then he relied on the strong core strength, holding a saber immediately want to bow up to cut the rope, but did not succeed.

Because Qing Li quickly rushed over and grabbed his arm, and also gave him a shot.

The man moved a few times before the effects of the anesthetic came out, and he calmly gave up struggling, “Really relentless, Aonashi.”

Crisis averted, Aonashi paralyzed on the ground and gasped for breath, “Knocked my teeth loose, and you didn’t show much mercy, Master Chen Sai.”

Chen Sai was the only Chinese in the team other than Xiji, and also one of the most qualified people, he had followed Yue Zhi since he was in his teens, and Xiji was also trained by him to be a qualified protector.

He basically stopped doing dangerous missions now, specializing in managing the base and the mercenary group and cooperating with Xiji.

Qing Li didn’t expect him to personally come for the assessment.

She got up and walked behind a tree, wrapping the rope around her arm twice before undoing the clasp, then placed her foot against the tree trunk and lowered Chen Sai, whose muscles had gone slack, to the ground.

She wouldn’t have done this if it were anyone else, but Chen Sai was already over forty, and it felt like if she hung upside down like this for a while, she might go straight to heaven.

“What? Sympathize with me for being old?” Chen Sai’s lips were also paralyzed, and with the mask on, Qing Li almost didn’t hear what he was saying.

“No, I’m afraid you’ll catch up again if you run too fast.” Qing Li brought him to the edge of a tree, wrapped the rope from the other’s bag tightly several times, then sprinkled a circle of snake repellent, “This is safer.”

Chen Sai sighed, “I really am an old bone, you shoot my flare gun before you run, let Yue Zhi send someone to pick me up and take me back, you youngsters have fun.”

Qing Li nodded, packed his bags, took food and bullets from his bag, which made him shoot his signal gun, then dropped it and ran.

“Hey, hey …… hey! This girl, there’s no need to be in such a hurry.” Chen Sai smiled helplessly.
