"If only I could never see those Living Hades again,"
that was the greatest wish of Li Menglin after emerging from that hellish place of Intelligence Department One.
To make this wish come true, he even thought about waiting by his window for a shooting star.
It wasn't that Li Menglin still naively believed that a shooting star could really fulfill wishes.
But he knew very well that as long as he was still living in City 10, within the Federation, that wish could never come true.
So he could only turn to metaphysics.
These days, Li Menglin would pick up the phone with a tremble in his heart, fearing that it was from Intelligence Department One, summoning him to report back.
Fortunately, that group of Living Hades seemed to have forgotten about him; as long as he reported punctually on the corporate vehicles entering and exiting City 10 daily, no one bothered him actively.
That allowed Li Menglin to breathe a sigh of relief.
