Chapter 98 - 98 I'm Too Dirty To Be Worthy Of Her
98 I’m Too Dirty To Be Worthy Of Her
The bald man shuddered and quickly shrank back against the wall.
Clutching his rapidly beating heart, he said with lingering fear, “This is too scary. Her vigilance is too high.”
The man laughed. “Don’t underestimate her. She’s strong.”
“Look at your proud tone. You sound like you’re talking about your girlfriend,” the bald man teased.
The man’s laughter stopped. His eyes were gray as he mocked himself. “I’m too dirty to be worthy of her.”
“You…” the bald man began.
“Let’s go. We have a mission to complete.” The man regained his composure and left.
… .
Shi Ran looked away.
Her mind flashed to the man who had just helped her.
It felt familiar.
Gathering her thoughts, she turned to the three bound men.
“Who sent you to kidnap me?” Shi Ran asked calmly.
“We won’t say anything.” The big man was tight-lipped.
Shi Ran was not surprised.
She turned right into the van and found a phone on the driver’s seat.
As he picked it up, a call came in.
No note, just a string of numbers.
She slid the answer button.
“Well? Did you get her? W’s orders are to take her straight to the usual place and dump her in the back hills to feed the dogs. Those babies have been hungry for a long time, too.”
The man sounded like he was in his thirties, mature and a little hoarse.
When no one answered, the man said in a cautious tone, “Why aren’t you talking?”
Shi Ran curled her lip. “I regret to inform you that it’s your men who will now be taken to the dogs.”
“Du du du—”
The caller hung up.
Shi Ran got out of the car with the phone. She wanted to open it but realized that she needed the password.
She scanned the men. “What’s the password?”
“We won’t tell you. Unlock it yourself if you can!” the big man sneered.
Shi Ran slid her finger across the phone a few times, her expression calm. “Oh, it’s unlocked.”
The three big men: ?
“How can that be! Don’t lie—”
Before he could finish, a familiar photo of a beautiful woman appeared in front of him.
The three burly men: !!!
It was the desktop wallpaper!
This woman actually unlocked it??
How was it done???
Shi Ran scrolled through the phone.
The call was only from the man just now, but there were many numbers in the contact list.
She memorized the numbers.
She then opened the photo album and was greeted by gory photos and many videos.
Blood spread across the screen. The girl’s cry for help. The sound of despair in the silent street.
She then turned it off.
A moment later she found their destination again by navigating.
“Snow Manor?”
She muttered those four words and looked down at the man in the middle. The smile on her lips was filled with killing intent.
The big man felt terrified. He leaned so close to the telephone pole behind him that his double chin became triple chin.
However, he could only hear a voice that sounded like a bloody blade hanging above his head. “Is it a place to feed the dogs?”
None of the three dared to speak.
She tilted her head. “How about throwing you guys in? We can’t starve those babies.”
“Y-y-you…” the big man stammered. “I’m telling you, it’s illegal!”
“Illegal?” Shiran raised an eyebrow.
“Yes! It’s illegal. You’ll go to jail if you’re found out!”
She ran her index finger down her chin. “You guys are right. It’s wrong to break the law while you know it.”
The big man let out a long breath.
Ten minutes later.
Sirens sounded, drawing closer with every second.
The three burly men: !!!
‘Damn it, it’s wrong to break the law, but I didn’t ask you to call the police!!!’
The police car pulled up in front of the van.
After Shi Ran briefly explained what had happened tonight, she handed over their phone to the police.
“A man just called. I recorded the conversation. On the phone, they have a mastermind behind them. His name is W, probably an acronym for his last name.”
The cop took the phone and put it in the evidence bag.
“Also, they said they were going to throw me to the dogs. I checked the phone’s GPS. There’s a back hill on Snowfall Manor.”
“A lot of people must have died there. Lots of videos and photos could be found in the cell phone’s albums.”
Shi Ran said calmly.
The cop said nothing.
This was the first woman he had seen who was so calm after almost being kidnapped!
She had even given him all kinds of evidence.
“So they own this phone? They gave you the password to unlock it?” the cop asked.
“No, I just entered a random string of numbers and opened it.”
POLICE: ?
So lucky???
He looked up, studying Shi Ran’s face.
Despite the mask, the woman looked familiar. “Have we met before? Are you a cop, too?”
She was so calm, clear, and organized that it felt very likely that she was a colleague.
“No.” Shi Ran shook her head.
The cop was puzzled, but he didn’t waste any more time. “Take out your ID. I’ll check in and call you later if I need you.”
“Okay.”
Shi Ran handed over her ID.
The policeman first scanned the information on the ID card and was about to take a pen to register.
His eyes widened suddenly and focused. “Are you Shi Ran?”
“It’s me.”
“I didn’t expect to see you again. I’ve watched the video of you beating up some punks in City A a dozen times. You’re so cool when you fight.” The cop couldn’t stop praising her.
“Thank you,” Shi Ran said politely.
The police had work to do, so they didn’t delay any longer. After registering the information, they quickly got into the police car.
The police car pulled away, dragging the white van with it.
In the car.
The policeman from earlier was still excitedly sharing his experience. “I didn’t expect to meet Shi Ran this time.”
“Shi Ran?” The man’s deep, rich voice sounded in the car.
“Yes, Mr. Wen, we’ve really troubled you this time. We invited you to help us solve the case but we didn’t expect to be mobilized at the last minute.”
“It’s okay,” Wen Yu said.
Shi Ran?
It seemed to be the female celebrity that Jinchen cared about.
He looked away and inadvertently glanced at the police registration book.
The words Snow Manor came into view, and his pupils constricted.
‘Snow Manor?’
… .
Shi Ran was waiting for the bus.
Then a black Maybach pulled up in front of her.
The car door was quickly opened and Chu Jinchen quickly stepped forward.
His black eyes sized up Shi Ran carefully from left to right.
After confirming that she was not injured, a faint smile appeared on his lips. “Why did you come here alone?”
Shi Ran looked up and met those deep eyes. “Why are you here?” she asked.
“To take you home,” he whispered.
Shi Ran raised her eyebrows and smiled. “Thank you, Third Young Master Chu.”
A bright smile dazzled in his eyes. Chu Jinchen restrained his emotions and took the initiative to open the backseat door.
Silence filled the car. No one spoke.
Shi Ran propped her chin on her hand and looked out of the window at the scenery flashing past, lost in thought.
Chu Jinchen stared at Shi Ran’s side profile.
By the light from the window, he traced the contours of Shi Ran’s features with his eyes.
His eyes darkened as he recalled the bodyguard’s report in the office.
He had already sent a few bodyguards to protect Shi Ran directly.
Yet, he had just received news that Shi Ran was almost kidnapped.
And that she was rescued by a man in a hat.
Chu Jinchen narrowed his eyes and crossed his fingers for a few seconds.
He spoke casually. “Anything you want to say to me?”
