Chapter 333: Chapter 244: Hostage (Third Update)_1

There is no question that we have a mastermind lurking in the dark.

But is this really the case?

Sometimes, in this mortal world, people never learn that one should not judge a book by its cover; because what sometimes appears to be the safest could actually be the most dangerous.

Hearing Red Scorpion’s words, Black Scorpion became thoughtful. He always had the feeling that he overlooked something important, but the sudden pain from the hand buried deep in his chest quickly brought him back to reality.

He dropped his gaze, and the woman’s seductive red lips were almost within reach. His brows furrowed deeply, and he forcefully pushed the woman clinging onto him, "Red Scorpion, do you realize that you’re only nauseating others with your behavior?" He sneered. Even if he were desperate, he would never touch a woman like her.

Hearing Black Scorpion’s words, Red Scorpion looked momentarily annoyed, but then she laughed seductively again, "Black Scorpion, you should be aware that there’s no man in this world who can resist me — including you." Her patience was limited.

Any other man would fall at her feet with just a wink and a slight beckoning of her finger. It was only this stone-hearted Black Scorpion, who remained indifferent to her seduction, no matter what she did.

Red Scorpion even suspected if he preferred men. Her dainty allure didn’t affect him in the least.

With a cold glance at her, Black Scorpion turned and walked away.

However, the next moment, his breath started to waver, and his senses felt off.

"What did you do to me?"

"Nothing." Watching the halted figure, Red Scorpion grinned, "Just a little something to make you obedient. Don’t worry, how could I bear to poison you to death? I haven’t gotten the chance to love you yet." As she spoke, Red Scorpion slowly advanced towards Black Scorpion.

The things that can’t be obtained are always the most precious — rejection only increased Red Scorpion’s desire. Her patience had long been exhausted.

What a pity, none of this mattered.

Suddenly, Black Scorpion pulled out a dagger from his waist and without hesitation slashed it across his arm. His gaze immediately cleared and he ran towards the outside without a moment’s hesitation.

Watching Black Scorpion’s retreating figure, Red Scorpion gritted her teeth. In the end, she didn’t pursue him.

She would like to see how long he could last. Struck by her charm poison, without the touch of a woman within eight hours, he would certainly die. If she couldn’t have him, then destruction was just as good.

Black Scorpion, this was your choice – don’t blame me!

...

The scene now changes to the interrogation room at the Ming City Police Station.

The captured sniper was currently bound hand and foot to a chair, unable to move. His gaze at Mu Lin was cold and filled with murderous intent.

He recognized her. It was because of this woman that he didn’t succeed. He remembered clearly, the color of her clothes, her build — even without recognizing her face, he could confidently identify her.

Resting her chin on one hand, Mu Lin looked leisurely at the sniper in front of her, "You seem to really hate me." He wanted nothing more than to devour her. She sighed in resignation, "Although I don’t want to say it, you’re likely to hate me more soon." Alas, she didn’t enjoy this at all.

"Hmph." Though his jaw was broken, he could still scoff coldly.

Mu Lin laughed lightly. The next moment, with two snaps, his broken jaw was instantly restored.

Nonchalantly tossing the towel in her hand to the side, Mu Lin looked tepidly at the man before her, "Although it feels a bit self-aggrandizing to say this, I need to inform you that the poison in your teeth has been emptied out already. Even if it wasn’t, with that type of poison, as long as you have a breath left, I can still bring you back from the brink of death." Seeing the disbelief in his eyes, Mu Lin remained unaffected, "Believe it or not, that means nothing to me." The tricks like biting the tongue to commit suicide seen on TV wouldn’t kill someone, it would just make you suffer more pain.
