"Is he following me?"
"Did he see me being chatted up by others and feel uncomfortable?"
"Is he jealous? Could it be that he has feelings for me...,"
Her mind began to wander as her face flushed red. She felt lightheaded, as if she had lost the ability to think properly.
"Tingting, what's going on... Who is he?"
Just then, Hu Xiaolan next to her spoke up, pulling Li Danting back to reality. She stammered for a while.
"I'm full. I'm going out... I have something to do. Xiaolan, don't worry about me."
Her voice gradually faded away as Su Mo pulled Li Danting out of the venue. Only then did Su Mo let go of her hand and looked at Li Danting expressionlessly, "Come with me."
Li Danting really wanted to refuse, even yell at him, but no matter how she tried to organize her words in her mind, her body was very honest. She lowered her head slightly and nodded gently.
Soon after, Su Mo stopped a taxi and the two got in, heading to the Dihua Hotel not far from Yun Shaokun's home.
At the hotel, Su Mo directly and openly booked a suite. He walked ahead confidently while Li Danting followed behind with her head lowered.
She thought to herself: "Is he going to... with this bastard again? Although, he looked so handsome just now..."
Su Mo thought: "Hmph, the pawn is in place. I have an alibi now with solid reasoning. The tracker is also in place, very good. I have to say, this woman has helped me a lot, hahaha, she's just too stupid."
The two entered the suite one after the other. Li Danting was still hesitating outside the door, but obediently went in under Su Mo's gaze.
After entering the room, Li Danting just stared at Su Mo sullenly without saying a word, as if speaking first meant she lost.
Su Mo glanced at the time. It was almost eleven o'clock. Just in time, he went to the water dispenser, poured a glass of water, and took out a pill.
Then he handed the pill and water to Li Danting, "Drink it."
Li Danting didn't move. Her face was angrier, but after a few seconds, she still picked up the water and swallowed the pill, drinking the water in one gulp.
Su Mo revealed an evil smile, "Aren't you afraid that I poisoned you?"
Li Danting let out a cold snort, "It's even better if you poisoned me. I've wanted to die with you for a long time, you bastard."
Su Mo laughed out loud. He pulled Li Danting into his arms with one hand around her waist and the other stroking her hair. His voice was gentle, "I'm not a good man. Don't fall for me."
Then, before Li Danting could respond, she was no longer able to speak.
"Mmm mmm mmm..."
A storm of passion, a fleeting dream; a mountain spring, a picturesque life; reversed fates, a heavenly era.
Let's skip fifty or a hundred thousand words here...
An hour later, Li Danting had fallen asleep with a blissful flush on her face and a faint smile.
The pill Su Mo gave her was something like a sleeping pill that allowed deep, uninterrupted sleep.
He got up, got dressed, then took out his phone. The location showed Yun Shaokun had stopped moving, presumably already home.
Wearing a face mask and cap, he opened the window and went from the 8th floor balcony to the 7th floor balcony of the hotel, then left through the door of that room, exiting the hotel.
In less than half an hour, he walked to the location, but it wasn't Yun Shaokun's home. Instead, it was an ordinary apartment complex.
He easily jumped the fence and entered the complex, then took the stairs up to the 12th floor. The location showed it was 1202.
Skillfully opening the door, he carefully sneaked into the room and closed the door behind him as he headed for the bedroom.
Inside the bedroom, two people were currently asleep, one being Yun Shaokun and the other an unknown young woman, naked. She was probably a mistress of some sort.
As Su Mo walked in, the two didn't notice him. He took out a stun gun and went to the bedside, pressing it against the woman's neck. She didn't even wake up, just convulsed twice before passing out.
Next, Su Mo's knife was already against Yun Shaokun's neck, icy cold.
Putting away the stun gun, he covered Yun Shaokun's mouth with his hand and said sinisterly in a low voice, "Shh, don't speak loudly. It could be deadly."
In the darkness, Yun Shaokun couldn't see Su Mo's appearance, but the bloody aura gave him a deep sense of fear.
"Yes, just like that. Stay quiet and obedient."
As he spoke, he took out prepared tools and pulled Yun Shaokun into another room, turning on the light and tying him to a chair.
Throughout the process, Yun Shaokun didn't dare move. He was too experienced, he knew that with home invasions like this, the slightest carelessness could lead to death. He didn't dare resist, and had no chance to either.
After finishing preparations, Su Mo casually sat in another chair, smiling at Yun Shaokun, though of course Yun Shaokun couldn't see with the mask on.
"You're very cooperative, so as long as you answer my questions properly later, I won't kill you. But if you're uncooperative, I'll have to kill, you know."
"Okay, ask away. I'll tell you anything I can," Yun Shaokun swallowed and replied with difficulty.
"Very good. First question, the old city renovation..."
An hour later, Su Mo held a stack of documents and a list, satisfied as he stood there.
Meanwhile, Yun Shaokun had multiple knives stuck in his body, all kitchen utensils. His head drooped lifeless, a chopstick stuck in his neck with blood still trickling from the wound. If the chopstick was pulled out, it would probably start gushing.
Not only that, Yun Shaokun's body was covered in countless wounds, many areas already cut away. His face was no longer recognizably human, twisted and bloody, gruesome to behold.
Looking at the thoroughly dead Yun Shaokun, Su Mo smiled arrogantly:
"You probably don't know, I'm an expert at interrogation. Very few people can keep secrets from me, and you clearly weren't one of them."
Next, as usual, after cleaning up the traces, he left the room and the complex.
He already knew what he needed - who to punish, who could be spared. He had it figured out.
What came next was preparing to pass judgement on these people. There were quite a few this time, so he needed a fun game.
Gao Ming was on his way here. He could get started tomorrow.
Following the route he took leaving, Su Mo returned from the 7th floor of the hotel to the 8th floor, and lay back down next to Li Danting as if he'd never left at all.
Before falling asleep, Su Mo was already itching inside for the upcoming carnival of slaughter.
