Taro Ono walked into the bedroom and looked at the other three people in the room. Seeing that they were all sleeping soundly, he walked to his bed and lay down. For some reason, he suddenly felt like he was being watched. Was he too nervous?
At this thought, he reached out to touch his luggage and found that the thing was still there. He heaved a sigh of relief. This time, he had brought the most important part of the device with him. If he lost it, even if everything was arranged, they would not be able to detonate it.
When Taro Ono touched his luggage, Su Jinyue used her X-ray vision to examine his luggage and realized that there were a few black parts inside. She did not need to guess that those parts were part of the device that he mentioned on the phone. She had to think of a way to take those parts away. If the Japanese’s plan were to succeed, the consequences would be dire.
When she returned to the bedroom, she saw that Wang Lizhen and the others were no longer playing cards.
While MO Feiyao was reading a book on the upper bunk, Du Yu was already snoring and Wang Lizhen was leaning against the bed and eating melon seeds.
“Sleep early after you’re done eating. I’m going to bed now.” Wang Lizhen dusted off the melon seed shells on the blanket before lying down.
Su Jinyue walked to the table and sat down. She picked up the food on the table and started eating. However, her gaze was on Taro Ono. She wanted to wait for him to fall asleep before stealing the parts.
MO Feiyao looked at Su Jinyue. His mouth moved slightly but he still did not speak. Why not talk about it tomorrow morning?
Su Jinyue put down her chopsticks, stood up and walked out. She was sure that the Japanese had fallen asleep. Now was the best time to strike.
“Where are you going?” MO Feiyao asked.
“Bathroom,” Su Jinyue answered flatly. If she did not answer, MO Feiyao might follow her out.
Arriving at the room where Taro Ono was staying, Su Jinyue observed for a while before entering.
The four people in the bedroom were already fast asleep. Su Jinyue walked softly to Taro Ono’s bed and took out a silver needle and inserted it into his sleeping acupuncture point. This way, he might not wake up even if she hit him, let alone rummage through his things.
She opened Taro Ono’s luggage and put the parts into her own storage pouch. Then, she took out a few items that looked like parts from her storage pouch and placed them in his luggage. If she took away the parts directly, she would definitely alert the enemy.
After doing all this, Su Jinyue removed the silver needles from Taro Ono’s body and quickly left the room.
Taro Ono woke up with a start. He looked around and saw that there was no one else in the room. He reached for his luggage and realized that the parts were still there. He heaved a sigh of relief. He just dreamed that someone had rummaged through his luggage and taken the parts away. Fortunately, it vvas just a dream.
When Su Jinyue returned to her room, she saw that MO Feiyao was still reading.
She walked to her bed and laid down before taking out a book to read as well. She had just woken up, so she couldn’t fall asleep for a while.
“I hope you can consider what I told you,” MO Feiyao suddenly said. He had wanted to wait until tomorrow to talk about this matter, but seeing that Su Jinyue wasn’t sleepy, he couldn’t help but bring it up.
Su Jinyue frowned slightly. “I don’t have time. You should find someone else.”
“As long as you treat my grandma, you can name any condition you want,” MO Feiyao said. It was the dream of countless people to make the MO family agree to one condition.
“I won’t go no matter what you say,” Su Jinyue said calmly with a hint of determination.
MO Feiyao frowned. He hesitated for a moment before he said, “This is our first time meeting, right? Why do I feel like you have a deep prejudice against me?” He really couldn’t understand this point.
“That’s what you think,” Su Jinyue said calmly.
“Can’t you tell me the reason?” MO Feiyao stuck his head out and looked at Su Jinyue who was lying down. He really wanted to know the reason.
Su Jinyue looked at MO Feiyao coldly and enunciated each word clearly, “Some people are destined to never be friends.” If it wasn’t for Mo Feiheng, they might have become friends, but this “if’ didn’t exist.
“Destined?” MO Feiyao sneered. He had never believed in destiny.
The train slowly entered the station. As the doors opened, the crowd surged out like a tide.
Su Jinyue picked up her luggage and walked out. Her gaze was fixed on Taro Ono. She wanted to see which hospital he was planning to attack.
“Lass, I’m leaving now. If you have time, you must come to my house to play. The address is the one I gave you this morning,” Wang Lizhen said to Su Jinyue after bidding farewell to Du Yu and MO Feiyao.
“Okay!” Su Jinyue nodded.
“Goodbye!” Wang Lizhen waved at Su Jinyue and the other two before carrying her luggage and walking towards the exit.
Su Jinyue saw Taro Ono walking towards exit No. 7 and hurriedly followed him.
“Why didn’t she say anything before leaving?” Du Yu was displeased.
“I’m leaving too. Goodbye,” MO Feiyao said and walked in the direction that Su Jinyue left.
Shrugging his shoulders, Du Yu carried his luggage towards the exit.
Su Jinyue came out of the exit and saw Taro Ono get on a bus. She quickly followed him.
There weren’t many people on the bus and there were a few empty seats.
Su Jinyue walked to a seat not far away from Taro Ono and sat down.
“Passengers who have just boarded, please buy a ticket. This passenger, where are you going?” The conductor had a black leather bag hanging in front of him as he walked up to Su Jinyue and asked.
Nowadays, public buses still use manual ticketing. It costs differently to go to different stations.
Su Jinyue thought about it and said, “I’m going to a guest house near the hospital called Xin something. I forgot. Comrade, do you know?” When she boarded the bus, she did not notice the sign indicating the stops and did not know where the bus was going. However, she believed that this car would definitely pass by the hospital where Taro Ono was going. She did not say that she was going to the hospital directly because she was afraid that Taro Ono would suspect that she was following him.
“In that case, get off at Kangli Hospital. The ticket is thirty cents,” the conductor said.
“Alright.” Su Jinyue took out thirty cents and passed it to the conductor.
The conductor put away the money, tore a ticket and handed it to Su Jinyue. He then walked towards Taro Ono, who was sitting at the back. “Which station are you going to?”
“Library,” said Taro Ono as he retracted his gaze. He felt that Su Jinyue was somewhat familiar, but he couldn’t remember where he had seen her before.
“Twenty cents.”
Su Jinyue cursed in her heart when she heard Taro Ono’s words. However, she had already said that she was going to the hospital, so there was no way she could change it. This Japanese is too cunning.
MO Feiyao saw Su Jinyue get on the bus and wanted to follow her. However, the bus had already moved off and he could only stop in his tracks helplessly. As long as Su Jinyue was in the Capital, he believed that with the MO family’s strength, it would not be difficult for them to find her..
