Chapter 43 - How much is my life worth?

At this moment, the bathroom door opened, and Yang Shuxi, pouting, walked out. Just as she was about to return to her seat, she almost bumped into Ye Fengwu, who was walking towards her.

Yang Shuxi took a step back and leaned against the bathroom door. The sweetness and maturity from before were gone, replaced by a wary look on her beautiful face. She glared at Ye Fengwu and said, "What do you want? I'm calling the police."

Ye Fengwu, with a black box slung over his shoulder, pointed behind her and said, "I need to use the bathroom."

Yang Shuxi immediately felt awkward and quickly stepped aside to let him pass.

Ye Fengwu looked back and said, "You should go to carriage number 10, there's no one alive in carriage number 9."

Hearing this, Yang Shuxi stuck her tongue out at him and huffed, "Trying to scare me? Do you think I'm a little girl?"

She then walked towards her seat. But after walking just two steps, her expression changed as she noticed something strange. The passengers in the entire carriage were acting oddly—some were lying back in their seats with their heads hanging down, while others had their heads drooping completely.

Yang Shuxi shook her head and returned to her seat, feeling uneasy.

Ye Fengwu entered the bathroom and immediately started scanning the area with sharp eyes.

When his gaze landed on the washbasin, he paused. The basin had been opened recently. The traces were subtle, but Ye Fengwu could still tell.

With a snap, Ye Fengwu grabbed the edge of the washbasin and forcefully flipped it over.

"Just as I thought," Ye Fengwu murmured lightly as he saw several glass tubes, like experimental tubes, hidden beneath the basin. Inside was a golden liquid. The tubes were connected to a timer, and there were 56 minutes remaining.

This was a liquid bomb that could blow the entire train apart.

Ye Fengwu carefully removed the bomb and, examining the dense wires on it, slightly curved his lips. Then, using his fingernail, he snipped a red wire.

There was a soft click, and the timer froze at 54 minutes and 30 seconds.

After successfully disarming the bomb, Ye Fengwu didn't hide it but carefully placed it back in the washbasin.

When Ye Fengwu exited the bathroom, he suddenly heard Yang Shuxi calling out to him, "Hey, old man, the atmosphere here is so strange."

Ye Fengwu turned and looked over, only to see Yang Shuxi sitting in her seat with a stiff expression, her large, beautiful eyes occasionally glancing around nervously.

Ye Fengwu shook his head and thought, The target is more important. There are definitely killers in more than one carriage of this train. Perhaps the two people who understand the Qi force are also mixed in one of the carriages.

With that, Ye Fengwu turned and walked towards carriage number 10.

Seeing Ye Fengwu turn back into the cold, aloof "old man," Yang Shuxi couldn't help but be surprised.

When she looked at the odd postures of the other passengers around her, she couldn't help but shiver.

In carriage number 10, the moment Ye Fengwu entered, five bodyguards in black immediately stood up and surrounded him.

Ye Fengwu made a surprised expression and pointed to the empty seats. "I thought this carriage was empty."

Lin Yu stood up and said to Ye Fengwu, "Sorry, please go to another carriage. We've reserved this one."

Ye Fengwu, with a simple and honest expression, replied, "Wow, wealthy people are so lucky. A worker like me can only look for a seat everywhere."

He said this while putting on a pitiful expression, as if implying, "Do you look down on workers?"

"Let him sit."

A beautiful woman's voice suddenly rang out, entering Ye Fengwu's ears.

The speaker was Luo Yihuang, who was still half-lying in her seat.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu frowned and said, "Miss Luo, we should still be cautious."

Luo Yihuang slightly closed her eyes and calmly said, "If he really is a killer, it's better to keep him in sight than to have him hidden."

After hearing Luo Yihuang's words, Ye Fengwu was slightly surprised. Just from those two sentences, he could tell the woman's calmness and wisdom.

Lin Yu nodded, then pointed to the second row seat next to Ye Fengwu and said, "You can sit there."

Afterward, Lin Yu signaled to the bodyguards, and two of them sat behind Ye Fengwu, clearly intending to keep an eye on him.

Ye Fengwu smiled honestly and said, "Thank you. Where are you from, beautiful? It's so hard to find someone as beautiful and kind as you in this world."

Lin Yu's face gradually showed an expression of impatience, and she coldly hummed, "If you can be quiet, you can sit here until we reach the destination. Otherwise, I'll have them kick you out."

After speaking, Lin Yu sat back in her seat.

At this moment, Ye Fengwu suddenly stood up and walked directly to Luo Yihuang's seat.

The three bodyguards in front, however, were focused on the door to carriage number 11 and didn't notice that Ye Fengwu, who had just sat down, suddenly got up.

At that moment, Lin Yu turned around and saw that the "worker" had walked up to her and calmly sat in the seat next to Luo Yihuang.

Lin Yu's face turned pale with shock, and she stood up and shouted angrily at Ye Fengwu, "What are you doing? Who told you to come here?"

"You know, your bodyguards' alertness is too poor."

Ye Fengwu didn't pay attention to Lin Yu's reprimand. Instead, he turned to Luo Yihuang, who was resting with her eyes closed, and spoke calmly.

This was Ye Fengwu's first time meeting Luo Yihuang. There were rumors that this woman was incredibly beautiful and had the title of the "most beautiful woman in China." At first, Ye Fengwu didn't believe it.

Who could be more beautiful than Qin Qinghan? But when he truly saw Luo Yihuang, he couldn't help but vaguely believe the rumors.

Even just her side profile was breathtakingly beautiful. Her features were so exquisite they could be considered perfect.

Luo Yihuang slowly opened her eyes, and those narrow, phoenix-like eyes still held the same calm expression.

She said softly, "Now you know."

Lin Yu's anger grew, and her eyes became even more vigilant. How could the two bodyguards at the door let him get close to Miss Luo?

So, Lin Yu angrily yelled at the two bodyguards still sitting there, "Hey, what are you two doing?"

Ye Fengwu calmly replied, "They must have fallen asleep."

Although Luo Yihuang's bodyguards were stronger than ordinary people, in terms of real combat ability, even the weakest killer from carriage number 9 could easily overpower them. Ye Fengwu had dozens of ways to knock them out without any resistance.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu's face turned pale. The three bodyguards in the front row immediately realized the situation and got up, rushing toward Ye Fengwu.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Ye Fengwu raised his hand, and three small objects flew out, hitting the kneecaps of the three bodyguards almost simultaneously.

Ah!

The three of them collapsed to the ground, their legs giving way.

Then, three more flying objects came, hitting the exact center of the heads of the three bodyguards—their Baihui acupoint.

Once this acupoint is struck, the person will instantly fall unconscious.

Seeing the three bodyguards fall unconscious in one blow, Lin Yu's face turned even paler.

Clatter, clatter!

At this moment, Lin Yu finally saw the objects that had instantly knocked out the three bodyguards. They were clearly six spent bullet casings.

He actually... He actually used six bullet casings to subdue the bodyguards he had paid so much for.

Looking at the two bodyguards in the first row, who were also unconscious, Lin Yu finally realized that this "worker" was a killer, a very, very skilled killer.

He had effortlessly threatened Luo Yihuang's life.

Whoosh!

Then, Lin Yu's eyes narrowed as her right fist shot toward Ye Fengwu's throat, fast and precise.

Seeing this, Ye Fengwu was slightly surprised. He hadn't expected this beautiful woman to be a fighter.

From her speed and power, Ye Fengwu could tell that her combat ability was probably not weaker than the policewoman Chen Nan's and was definitely stronger than the unconscious bodyguards.

Ye Fengwu's lips curled into a slight smile, and without even getting up, he raised his hand and grabbed her fist, twisting it behind her back.

Lin Yu cried out in pain as her whole body lost balance.

Ye Fengwu twisted her arm behind her back and pressed her face down onto his legs.

The position was rather inappropriate, especially for someone like Lin Yu, who was proud and high-strung. It was a great humiliation.

Lin Yu knelt on the ground, her upper body pressed against Ye Fengwu's legs. The only strength left in her was in her mouth. Driven by her survival instincts and the anger from being humiliated, she bit down hard.

Mmm~!

Ye Fengwu's face turned red, and he struggled to suppress his feelings.

"How much is my life worth?"

At this moment, Luo Yihuang suddenly spoke up, her voice as calm as ever, with not the slightest ripple of emotion.
