It seems that the villain is targeting me.

After waiting for a while, the voice in her head responded to her.

“Oh, yes,” it said slowly. “Have you registered?”

Lu Yao quickly and briefly described her situation, looking panicked: "What should I do?"

"Just answer her questions." Lao Liu muttered, looking depressed, like someone who had just woken up. "You shouldn't even think about telling lies..."

If 41006 had a physical body, Lu Yao would have already knelt before it.

"Help me," she squeezed out a few tears of genuine emotion from her eyes, "please help me quickly, I don't want to go to jail."

Lao Liu felt that this woman was making too much of a fuss.

The previous process of controlling Lu Yao had already consumed a lot of its energy. 41006 was currently in energy-saving standby mode and was not very willing to waste energy on such a small matter.

But seeing that Lu Yao was about to break down due to the interrogation, Lao Liu finally started the energy-intensive "Didi Designated Driver" program reluctantly.

From Lu Zhiqing's perspective, his sister, who had been hesitant when asked by him, was suddenly distracted for a few seconds, and then her whole expression brightened up.

"Lu Yao?" Lu Zhiqing instinctively took a half step back and looked at the other person with confusion.

Lu Yao glanced at her sister and suddenly said, "Gu Tianjiao isn't in school right now—I think he's feeling sleepy and gone to rest."

Lu Zhiqing didn't expect her to say such a thing: "Ah? Is this true..."

"Really?" Lu Yao replied cheerfully. "I saw him pass out in a deep sleep right in front of me."

"Then why didn't you come this morning?" Lu Zhiqing asked.

"It was a huge traffic jam," she said stubbornly. "I just got out and walked over."

This was the truth. 41006 did not drive the car to the school gate, but parked in another block. Then it released its control over Lu Yao's body and urged her to hurry up and report to school.

Lu Zhiqing looked the other person up and down with some vigilance.

After a while, she hesitated and spoke, obviously not trusting Lu Yao's words: "You really didn't do anything?"

‘陆

Yao thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I kidnapped him, put him in a garbage truck and took him to the hotel."

Lu Zhiqing's eyebrows twitched fiercely: "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm asking you a serious question."

But Lu Yao's expression was much more serious than she had imagined.

"Really," the other person said, "he almost woke up halfway through the shipment, but luckily I caught him early and knocked him out instantly."

Divine gold——

Lu Zhiqing didn't want to bother with his neurotic sister anymore.

This ancestor is making trouble again!

She didn't want to get involved in this matter in the first place, but the head teacher forced her to come over!

Lu Zhiqing was indignant in her heart, thinking that she had been tricked by Lu Yao. When she found out that everything Lu Yao had just said was true, she didn't know what kind of expression she would make.

"...If you don't want to talk about it, forget it," Lu Zhiqing frowned, "It's okay, I'm leaving."

"Oh," she responded rather obediently, "Goodbye, sister."

Lu Yao looked composed and even seemed more obedient than before - which made Lu Zhiqing nervous.

Lu Zhiqing's intuition gave her a bad feeling: she felt that Lu Yao was secretly planning something, and was ready to give everyone a big surprise.

Judging from what happened later, Miss Lu’s prediction was spot on.

-

Gu Tianjiao opened his eyes amidst an unbearable pain.

He felt as if the back of his head was about to split open, throbbing with severe pain, as if someone had aimed three bricks at that place.

There was a disgusting smell of slop lingering in my nose.

The smell is hard to describe, similar to leftover food and kitchen waste that has been fermented for three days and then exposed to the sun - it's probably something like that.

Young Master Gu was so stimulated that he shed tears, and the flowing saline solution blurred his entire vision.

He blinked hard, trying to make out his surroundings.

It was obvious that this person had a strong mental quality and did not yell in panic - considering that he had lived in an environment dependent on others since he was a child, and had a childhood sweetheart like Miss Lu Er - if his heart was too fragile and sensitive, he would not have survived to this day.

In short, Gu Tianjiao managed to maintain some rationality and composure.

Before his vision returned to normal, he concluded that he must have been kidnapped.

Yes, he easily realized that he was tied up.

Combined with the pungent smell on his body, Gu Tianjiao judged that he was probably being held in a secluded area like the suburbs or an abandoned factory... and there should be a garbage dump or something nearby.

Perhaps it was because of the concussion - or maybe this kind of thing is very easy to happen to the protagonists of romance novels - Gu Tianjiao found that he seemed to have no memory of what happened before he fell into a coma.

He vaguely remembered that he should have reported to school today.

Then he got in the car... um... a sedan... with a weird smile...

Gu Tianjiao suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head... It was as if the brain's protective mechanism was preventing him from continuing to recall.

His head was hurting a lot, so Gu Tianjiao decided not to recall the past anymore.

Yes, it is best not to fight against your body's instincts. If you are walking on the road and suddenly feel creepy, it is most likely that your body wants to save you and is sending you a warning.

That’s right, if you encounter this situation, don’t hesitate, run away quickly.

The stinging sensation in his eyes seemed to ease a lot. Gu Tianjiao turned his head silently and tried to open his eyelids a little.

Before this, this young man with a gangster background had already made enough psychological preparations: even if the kidnapper who appeared before him had bad intentions, he had the confidence to deal with the other party.

The other party kidnapped him just to threaten his mother.

Gu Tianjiao was still calm. He knew that the woman would come to rescue him after getting the news.

He encouraged himself in his heart: There's no need to be afraid! As long as you're not dead, you'll be able to escape in the end.

After Gu Tianjiao finished his mental preparations, his blurred vision returned to normal. He tried hard to open his eyes - and then was terrified by what he saw.

He was so scared not because he saw kidnappers, gangsters, or other dangerous things.

Even the place where Gu Tianjiao was was not the abandoned and remote building as previously imagined.

On the contrary, the room he stayed in could only be described as luxurious.

Exquisite decoration, marble floors, and wallpaper with gold edges.

Not far away was a luxuriously furnished double Simmons mattress, bright red with a light above and gauze around the edges. The bed was littered with a pile of unsightly items: whips, handcuffs, belts, things I didn't recognize but thought were scary, ordinary candles, and low-temperature candles.

Gu Tianjiao fell into a state of panic. He lowered his head and found that he was tied to a practical chair.

Hmm, I've never seen this way of tying.

His sanity value began to drop rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Ah, you're awake."

A gentle female voice sounded in his ears - the voice was so familiar, and it had not been long since he last heard it.

Gu Tianjiao shuddered violently. He turned his head and saw that the person standing beside him was none other than Lu Yao.

The girl was wearing a pair of clean white gloves and she leaned down slightly to look at him. If one looked carefully, one could even detect a hint of concern in her expression.

Gu Tianjiao widened his eyes in horror and opened his mouth to call for help.

"Hold it in your mouth and don't talk."

The other party spoke gently, stuffed the ball gag into Gu Tianjiao's mouth, and then fastened the leather buckle and tied it tightly to the back of his head.

By the time Gu Tianjiao reacted, there was a ball gag in his mouth. He twisted his body desperately, even using the tip of his tongue to press against it, whimpering in fear.

The 'Lu Yao' in front of him spoke ruthlessly like a true villain: "Give up, no one will come to save you even if you scream your throat out."

"The conversion rate of luck to energy is far too low," she muttered.

The person in front of him was speaking words he couldn't understand at all and was walking towards him step by step.

"There's nothing I can do," Lu Yao continued muttering, "I'll just smoke as much as I can before I'm discovered."

His brain was screaming hysterically, and a creepy feeling ran from his spine to his nerve endings - this was his body's warning to him to hurry up and get out of bed.

The corners of Gu Tianjiao's mouth twitched stiffly, and a line of tears slid down his cheek.

He wanted to run, but he couldn't escape even if he had wings.

Chapter 76 Tell me if this is forced love!

Number Four lay limply on the mat, stretching his limbs comfortably.

The warm sunlight outside the window just right shines on its beautiful fur. Cat No. 4 is entering the first stage of sleep, with its furry paws under its head and its whiskers on both sides trembling slightly with pleasure.

It was obviously enjoying itself very much - and since it was a weekday afternoon, this enjoyment added a bit of psychological pleasure.

After returning from Taoyuan, Cat No. 4 lived a life of luxury.

In previous events, it was beyond everyone's expectations. It risked its life to go undercover in front of the enemy and played a huge role in rescuing the hostages.

Because of its hard work and great contributions, Xiao Niao spoiled it a little bit, feeding it with good food every day, and even got tired of eating the small yellow croaker soup.

In just a few weeks, No. 4 gained back the weight he had lost from traveling.

This time, when sending the kid to school, it was also brought up from home - after all, it is still a system after all, and even if it turns into a cat, it cannot be separated from the host at will.

The place where Cat No. 4 is staying now is the teacher dormitory allocated by the school to Xiao Niao.

The dormitory is a standard one-bedroom apartment and is allocated to faculty and staff who live alone as a unit benefit.

Of course, cats are not allowed in the dormitory, but No. 4 is not an ordinary cat. He knows how to avoid the sight of outsiders and is not so easy to be caught.

Xiao Niao then left it in the dormitory with confidence and accompanied Chen Xiaoya to handle a series of admission procedures.

She had informed Number Four in advance that she would take the child for a short stroll in the city to familiarize herself with the surrounding environment and buy some daily necessities.

It’s only been half a day, so I don’t think anything will happen, right?

Number Four wagged his tail lazily.

It is very satisfied with its current situation: this mission is almost certain to succeed, and the day when it returns to reality, resumes its organization, and reaches the pinnacle of its life is just around the corner.

But for some reason, the main control has not yet sent a message allowing return.

This wasn't a mission in the conventional sense, but a special commission issued by the master himself, so the criteria for determining completion were somewhat ambiguous.

From the perspective of Number Four, the requirements of the commission have actually been fulfilled.

Chen Xiaoya's original fate has undergone a massive deviation - in this timeline, she did not drop out of school, nor did she embark on the evil path of crime.

It is foreseeable that with Chen Xiaoya's talent, as long as she continues to develop step by step, she will definitely be able to get a decent job and live an ideal peaceful life.

Even if Xiao Niao was more arbitrary - directly transferring Xiaoya to another school and prohibiting her from applying for a major related to medicine - he could completely remove the other party from the original plot line.

This is feasible: based on Chen Xiaoya's current level of trust in Xiao Niao, she will definitely choose to blindly follow him without hesitation.

Number Four thought: In this way, the kid won’t even have any interaction with the characters in the original plot, let alone killing the Son of Destiny in the future.

This is a very roundabout way of completing a commission, and Number Four accepts it well.

In fact, it itself is very reluctant to have any contact with the sons of luck - it has been downgraded all the way to a cat, so you can imagine how many setbacks No. 4 has suffered at the hands of these sons of luck.

In order to increase the success rate of the mission, it even downloaded a bunch of information from the database. For a while, it almost became obsessed with studying romance novels.

Now, even if I avoid the Son of Fortune, it won’t delay anything.

Number Four didn't think this was a shortcut, but was rather pleased: This is also a method, and maybe it will even be used as a teaching material for analysis.

If I had to say there was something wrong, it would be that the task cycle was a bit too long.

Long.

It thought, judging from what the old man said, he should send Chen Xiaoya to college...

At this moment, the figure of a woman suddenly popped up in Number Four's mind - the woman who rescued Xiao Niao from the ruins in the underground passage that day.

Number Four was deeply impressed by her. He felt a little irritated when she approached him, not to mention that she later mentioned words like "karma points" and "props"...

It was very frightened at the time. If Xiaoniao had not been in critical condition, it would have run away immediately.

Since then, Number Four actually had a vaguely strange feeling, as if the woman gave it a familiar feeling.
