The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 132 My dear, Daddy won't let anything happen to you!

The others still inside the manor were unaware that their loved ones were slowly walking towards death.

When Xie Xuzhi learned that Yun Ran had also gone to that seaside carnival, his brows furrowed tightly.

As the deputy director of the Special Administration Bureau, he naturally saw the report that Shen Zhe had submitted.

The investigation was handed over directly to the local police, who had already sent people infiltrated, with personnel from the South China branch also providing covert assistance.

Yunran was one of the people who provided intelligence, but he wasn't on the list for this operation. Now that Yunran has infiltrated the team, he has a feeling that things will develop in the worst possible direction.

Xie Xuzhi didn't know when it started, but he felt that Yun Ran had a kind of mystical quality about her. Wherever she appeared, the case was bound to be big.

Just like Conan in the anime, wherever he is, there is bound to be a murder.

Xie Xuzhi picked up his phone and sent Yun Ran a message: 【Take it easy at sea!】

When Yunran heard the phone ring, she was a little puzzled. It was so late at night, who would send her a message?
Upon checking her phone, Yunran felt her eyelids twitching even more violently.

She's already in South China, and that guy can still remotely control her and even monitor her movements. That's terrifying.

The thought had barely crossed her mind when she suddenly remembered that she seemed to have seen Xie Xuzhi at the Zhao family's manor, though she had initially thought she was mistaken.

Now it seems she wasn't mistaken; that guy was definitely inside the Zhao family manor.

He immediately started chirping with the ginseng fruit: "This Xie Xuzhi is truly a model worker. Although I'm sure the face I saw before was correct, there's no evidence to prove it."

This guy, he's the deputy director of the General Administration, and he actually did it all himself, flying all the way to South China to oversee things. If he's not in the next round of model worker selections, there's definitely something fishy going on!

Ginseng fruit: ...

[Host, someone is trying to kill you right now, and you still have the mood to discuss other people's affairs? Isn't your sense of ease a little too relaxed?]

At least show some respect for the criminals' hard work in planning this. What you're doing is really ruining this dark and stormy night, the perfect atmosphere for a murder!

"You're more relaxed than me, still in the mood to joke around with me. You just know your host is tough and won't die~"

[Hehe, host is brilliant~~~]

If those scheming individuals overheard this conversation, they would probably be so angry they'd vomit blood.

Xia Jing looked at Yun Ran sitting alone in the corner, all lonely, and her heart suddenly softened.

She walked right over, looking like a caring older sister: "I'll introduce you to some girls your age to play with later. Relax, don't be nervous, you're a guest invited by the Zhao family~"

Before Yunran could reply, Xia Jing continued, "My older cousin isn't someone who can just look her in the eye. The fact that she likes you means your good days are yet to come."

Anyone who knew that Zhao Mingzhu treated Yun Ran differently would envy Yun Ran and think that she had struck it lucky.

But only those involved know that this stroke of luck could cost them their lives.

Thinking back to how she had actually thought Zhao Mingzhu was honest, Yun Ran now felt like slapping herself.

Is that honesty? It's clearly that they treated her like she was dead from the start, so there was no need to hide anything.

The huge sum of money given to her was Zhao Mingzhu's money to save her life. From the moment Zhao Mingzhu set her sights on her, she never intended to let her go.

Looking at Xia Jing, who was oblivious to her impending death and even marveling at her good fortune, Yun Ran gave a perfunctory smile.

The yacht quickly received the cruise ship's location and transported everyone aboard. The cruise ship had seven decks, equipped with various recreational facilities, including a casino and auction house. It would then sail directly to international waters along a predetermined route.

The waiters were already waiting, presenting the VIPs with welcome gifts and their respective room keys.

Yunran got a room on the sixth floor, which can be considered a symbol of status. The rooms on the seventh floor and above are naturally for those with higher status and wealth.

After receiving the room key, Yunran and Xia Jing parted ways.

The rooms on the sixth floor were all standard suites. As soon as they entered, Yun Ran threw out a few shielding talismans.

No one except those she authorized could enter, much less see what was inside the room.

Looking at the room's decorations, Yun Ran could only think, "No wonder so many people want to climb the social ladder; it feels so good to be rich."

After checking the room and finding nothing wrong, Yunran sat down, took out her phone, and looked up information about Tang Mingshan's three children.

I wonder if those three guys, knowing they're facing certain death, will still come aboard.

There must be a lot of people who want to cause trouble on a cruise ship like this; there are too many to count just by looking at their faces.

Fortunately, she had a cheat device, and immediately released all of the dozen or so paper figures.

"Go and keep an eye on the most important areas of the cruise ship. If you encounter those people, make sure they don't cause any damage!"

As he spoke, he distributed a dozen or so grains of merit, each the size of a grain of rice, onto the little paper figures, who immediately went to work happily.

With the little paper doll watching over her, Yun Ran quickly washed up and started to rest. She knew there was going to be a tough battle ahead, so she needed to get some rest.

Yunran slept soundly, unaware that someone on the cruise ship was frantic, like an ant on a hot plate, when they saw her.

"Sir, something terrible has happened! Miss has boarded the Death Cruise!"

In the pitch-black room, without a single ray of light, a masked man spoke in a hoarse voice: "What did you say!"

"Our people saw Miss on the Death Cruise. I've already had someone investigate; Miss was sent aboard by the Zhao family!"

The man's hands, already deformed from the fire, crushed the armrest of the chair beside him.

After a long silence, he finally said, "Send her back at all costs!"

"Yes, sir!"

Silence returned, and the man removed the mask from his face.

In the pitch-black room, no one could see that his face was burned beyond recognition, and his whole body looked extremely deformed.

The man's fingers trembled as he touched the photo frame on the table. The smiling little girl in the photo was none other than Yun Ran.

With his face burned, unable to smile, and even his tear ducts destroyed, Shen Jun's eyes now blazed with boundless hatred.

"My dear, Daddy won't let anything happen to you!"

He then suddenly stood up, limped open the secret room inside the room, took the elevator down into the secret room.

Looking at the woman bound by huge iron chains, he pressed the red button next to her that represented punishment.
