Excessive ferocity due to caution

After hanging up the phone with Zhao Yi, Barbara picked up the coffee on the table, took a sip, and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of the Liu Group building. Looking at the endless stream of people below, her eyes grew increasingly serious.

The light fell on her wine-red toenails, reflecting an alluring sheen.

Her slightly bent toes revealed the inner turmoil and hesitation she was experiencing.

Should we continue to help Zhao Yi?

Or...

Barbara stood there silently for a long time, until the coffee in her cup went cold.

If Liu Ruoqing and the other powerful executives of the Liu Group hadn't left, she wouldn't be facing such a difficult choice now.

She wasn't someone who only cared about herself; Liu Ruoqing had entrusted the Liu Group to her management, and every day when she opened her eyes, the lives of tens of thousands of people in the company were in her hands...

If she dies, there are other people in the company who can take her place.

But if she offended the Li family of the capital, she wouldn't be the only one facing retaliation...

She will face immense pressure at that time.

But Zhao Yi has the pendant given to her by Liu Ruoqing, so it wouldn't be right for her not to help.

Besides, she had seen Zhao Yi's potential.

This is an investment with extremely high risk and extremely high returns!

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

Barbara turned around, and a male servant pushed open the door and handed Barbara a letter.

"Sir, this is a letter from Feng Nan, the branch manager of the entertainment company."

After he finished speaking, he bowed and left the office.

Barbara opened the letter; there were only two words on it.

Help him.

She stared at the letter for a long time, then suddenly let out a long breath, her conflicted and serious expression gradually turning into excitement.

"We've really been born in an unstable era..."

"This is going to turn the world upside down..."

...

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

After briefly handling many minor tasks related to the abandoned city, Zhao Yi realized it was time to participate in the next movie.

The car arrived at the entrance of Tianwang Hotel.

With tears streaming down his face, Xu Shengzhi saw Zhao Yi off as he got into the car.

"Waaaaah..."

"Master, you must come back alive!"

Zhao Yi patted him on the shoulder:

"Why!"

"I didn't expect you to be so loyal; it actually touches me a little."

Xu Shengzhi wiped his nose and rubbed it on the sole of his shoe.

"Then, Master, if you die, may I become the leader of the Jie Sect?"

boom!

Xu Shengzhi was kicked more than ten meters away, rolling a long way on the road like a ball.

Before Zhao Yi closed the car door, he said to Wu Liang:

"Send him to shovel latrines in the inner city of the abandoned city."

The car door was pulled open.

Zhao Yi left the place in a private car.

The driver lit a cigar and glanced at Zhao Yi in the rearview mirror.

"Mr. Zhao, the journey is long, please fasten your seatbelt."

Zhao Yi fastened her seatbelt.

As soon as the driver stepped on the gas, Zhao Yi felt a blur before his eyes, and his surroundings were suddenly filled with countless colors, as dazzling as a kaleidoscope.

"Where am I?"

Zhao Yi asked in surprise.

The driver replied:

"An alternate dimension of spatial leap."

"Distance calculations are different here compared to the outside world. In this alternate dimension, as long as we have coordinates to guide us, we can reach most places in the universe in just a few minutes."

Zhao Yi looked at the scenery outside the car window and found it interesting.

Five minutes later, the driver slowed down, and they exited the alternate dimension.

The wide highway ahead was shrouded in thick fog, just like the entrance to the 2188 Building earlier. A sign along the road read: Zero City.

Abbreviated as Z City.

"Once you enter Z City, your movie will begin."

The driver opened the door for Zhao Yi, his tone urging him on.

Zhao Yi unbuckled his seatbelt, got out of the car, and walked into the fog. After his body disappeared into the depths of the fog, the driver revealed a sinister smile, quickly took out his phone, and dialed a number.

"Yes, yes, I have completed Young Master Li's instructions..."

"If he enters through this entrance, he will become a super criminal in Z City's Sand Sea Prison, imprisoned inside without any chance of escape!"

"At that time, as the righteous one, Young Master Li can do whatever he wants with him once he gets the authority. After all, who cares about the lives of a group of prisoners?"

"Hehehe, okay..."

"It's nothing, it's nothing. I'm paid to do what I'm supposed to do!"

After hanging up the phone, the driver opened the car door, got out, went to the roadside, whistled cheerfully, and peed into the ditch.

"ohhh——"

After he finished urinating, he shivered comfortably, lit another cigarette, and then cheerfully pulled up his pants and returned to the car.

boom.

Close the car door.

Just as the driver was about to start the car, he suddenly frowned.

Something seems off.

What's wrong?

Upon a quick inspection, he immediately discovered that the car's air conditioning was off.

The driver clearly remembered that he hadn't turned off the air conditioning when he got out of the car.

and so……

Who locked it?

In an instant, he felt ice-cold all over, as if he had fallen into a freezing cellar.

With a slight turn of his stiff neck, the driver focused his gaze on the rearview mirror.

Looking in the rearview mirror, he saw a middle-aged man in a suit sitting in the back of his seat.

The other person's expression was calm, neither sad nor happy.

"Who are you?!"

The driver swallowed hard.

The middle-aged man extended his hand and shook hands with the driver:

Fengnan.

The driver's expression froze the moment the name was uttered.

The camera zooms out.

The car suddenly jolted, and large amounts of blood and flesh splattered inside the car windows.

Then the car door slowly opened, and thick blood flowed out from the gap.

The mangled body, along with blood, slid out of the car in a twisted position, his horrified expression a lingering trace of the fear he felt before death…

Feng Nan sat in the driver's seat and gazed silently at the fog in front of him for a long time.

He should do something, both morally and logically.

But in the end, Fengnan stubbornly drove away.

...
