Ke Xue: I was raised by them in Mihua.

Immediately afterwards, all the valuable items that Xiaolan had fished up the day before yesterday were put out to the public.

On the one hand, it was to get some sun, and on the other hand, it was to let Tomoko see it.

Otherwise, the value of these things would be really hard to estimate!

"Yes, Mom, Xiaolan is amazing! She catches big fish all the time!"

Ayako patted her best friend's shoulder and praised her with a smile.

"That's not true. I think there might be a shipwreck or something like that in that area."

Xiaolan waved her hand and smiled shyly.

“There are no shipwrecks here. I had it surveyed before I bought the place!”

As she carefully examined the antique vase from an unknown era, Tomoko's expression of surprise grew stronger.

Although she couldn't be sure, her keen eye was enough to see the value of this thing!

If placed in some museums, it could be considered a treasure among their artifacts!

"Xiao Lan, you're really lucky!"

Luo Tian took out all the gold nuggets from the suitcase and placed them on the blanket, where they gleamed in the sunlight.

He couldn't earn that much money even if he streamed for several more years!

It's definitely more satisfying to be a kept man!

"That's all thanks to you, my dear!"

Xiaolan squatted down and kissed her boyfriend on the cheek.

She knew very well that her good fortune was due to the system's enhancements.

In other words, without Luo Tian as his "lucky star," he wouldn't have been so lucky.

It's even more impossible to have such a happy life!

Chapter 352 Sister Bay's Secret Protection, a Professional Female Guardian (Fourth Update, Please Subscribe!)

While Luo Tian and the others were leisurely enjoying themselves, Vermouth stretched and sat up from the sofa in the hotel on the public beach.

She spent the entire night monitoring the beach!

Although the police left in the afternoon, she knew very well that the real enemy was yet to come!

As night deepened and there were few tourists on the beach, several dark figures quietly approached the shore.

Before long, several speedboats appeared on the sea.

Vermouth knew that these people were either FBI agents or members of the Japanese Public Security Bureau.

Of course, it could also be other forces, but none of that matters!

They're all enemies anyway!

Through an infrared imaging telescope, she saw frogmen diving into the sea, as if they were retrieving something.

Unlike the Izu police, who only dealt with submarine debris on the sea, these people acted more professionally.

The good news is that after monitoring him all night, Vermouth didn't find anything unusual.

The intelligence related to the Black Organization's submarine should have sunk to the bottom of the sea along with the large pieces of wreckage.

Neither the FBI nor the Japanese Public Security Bureau would go to such great lengths to retrieve intelligence from the seabed for purposes unknown.

"The boring mission is finally over."

Vermouth stretched, her slender figure particularly alluring in the sunlight.

Carrying her unopened suitcase, she left the hotel again.

This time, she can really go back to Tokyo!

This incident certainly didn't end so simply!

The destruction of the organization's submarine must have been due to an inside leak of intelligence.

But that's not within her job scope!

When it comes to catching mice, there's a model worker in the organization!

Standing at the hotel entrance, Vermouth was still wearing the sun-protective jacket and straw hat that Xiaolan had given her.

She took out her phone and looked at Luo Tian's photo, her eyes trembling slightly.

She really wanted to go to the Suzuki family's villa, which was only a few kilometers away.

But she knew she couldn't do that!

The situation was already quite urgent, and she didn't want to cause Luo Tian any trouble.

Ultimately, Vermouth only went to the woods outside the barbed wire fence.

Separated by barbed wire, the inside and outside are like two different worlds!

The public beach was noisy, with all sorts of people, and she could also spot quite a few with ill intentions.

"Um?"

She was editing a message, wanting to tell Luo Tian that she was safe.

Suddenly, he frowned, put away his phone, and hid behind a big tree.

She noticed someone approaching!

……

"Tch! Those two women, and that brat! They actually dared to use a stun gun on me!"

With a ferocious expression, Michiwaki Masahiko walked towards the barbed wire fence.

After being hit by Sonoko's Lightning Ring, he managed to escape by crawling away when everyone else's attention was not on him.

It took me two days of rest in a hotel to barely recover!

As a criminal with several lives on his hands, he certainly wouldn't let it go!

He managed to get his hands on a gun through some channels; he's here today for revenge!

As the saying goes, "a fall into a pit, a gain in your wit," and Michiwaki Masahiko did not plan to show up this time.

He planned to lie in wait in this forest, waiting for his target to appear!

He managed to kill several people and still get away with it; he must be quite clever.

He vaguely remembered that the last time they met, the target was driving a sightseeing shuttle bus!

Unsurprisingly, it's someone from this private beach!

The ruthless and vicious Michiwaki Masahiko naturally didn't care whether his target was a rich person or not!

Rather, if he were truly a wealthy person, he would be even more excited!

Resentment towards the rich is also a major pathological psychological trait among prisoners like him!

Carrying a large bag of food and drinks, he hid in the woods near the path, waiting for his target to appear.

Little did they know that they had been targeted by a professional assassin!

……

"They actually brought a gun and showed up here. Are they here for Xiao Luo and Xiao Lan?"

Vermouth immediately spotted the outline of Masahiko Michiwaki's waist.

She knew that shape all too well!

She didn't know why the other person was there, nor what grudge they had.

All she knew was that she had to protect the people she cared about!

She took off her straw hat and sun-protective jacket and placed them on her suitcase. Vermouth, her face as cold as ice, walked straight toward Masahiko Michiwaki.

She moved very quickly, but she didn't make a sound.

They walked right behind the other person without being noticed!

With a swift movement of her right hand to her waist, a dagger gleaming with a cold light appeared in her hand.

Without saying a word, she plunged the dagger into Masahiko Michiwaki's back, right in the heart.

" Well--"

The immense pain caused Masahiko Michiwaki to instinctively fall forward.

Using the force, Vermouth easily pulled out the dagger and took a few steps back, avoiding getting splattered with blood.

Without even glancing at the guy, she kept backing away as she had come, picking up a twig and sweeping away her footprints.

She took one last deep look in the direction of the villa, sent the message she had prepared, and left.

Soon, the woods returned to calm, as if no one had ever been there.

Except for the extra corpse on the ground!

"Is this the new friend you just met, Miss? She's quite ruthless!"

A few minutes later, the barbed wire gate opened, and the female guard came out carrying some equipment.

There are also surveillance cameras in the woods nearby, so she saw everything that happened just now through the surveillance footage.

She knew Vermouth; just the day before yesterday, it was the villa's maid who specially escorted her out.

She also knew about Michiwaki Masahiko, who was also someone who had a grudge against her two young ladies the day before yesterday.

Therefore, she chose not to intervene and only came to clean up the traces after everything was over.

Otherwise, if the police were to discover a body outside the barbed wire fence on the Suzuki family's private beach, it would be quite troublesome!

The female guard, a former special forces soldier, quickly dug a pit and buried the body inside.

They also sprayed them with a pesticide to repel animals, so they wouldn't be dug out by wild dogs or other animals.

Next, she cut down the blood-stained bushes and weeds and put them into a sack.

Finally, they sprinkled on some medicine to mask the smell before quietly leaving.

A few minutes later, Tomoko, who was inside the villa, also received a phone call.

Chapter 353 Going Home! Ai's Shock: You know that woman?! (First Update)

　"Yay! I'm home!"

A luxury car pulled up in front of Luo Tian's villa.

Yuanzi jumped out of the car, shouting excitedly, and rushed into the yard.

"Sonoko, don't run so fast!"

Xiao Lan carried her best friend's luggage and gave her a gentle reminder with a smile.

A hint of excitement also lingered in her eyes.

While the time spent at the beach was wonderful, she also missed her good sisters back home.

Akemi and Ai had originally planned to go to the beach together.

But it seems they got too much loot from that team-up game!

Before setting off, Ai suddenly had a flash of inspiration and came up with a new idea for the research on the antidote!

Fearing that this inspiration would be fleeting, she ultimately stayed home with Luo Tian's support and worked overtime to conduct the new experiment.

Akemi also chose to stay and keep her sister company.

For them, there will be many more opportunities to travel together in the future.

Most importantly, we need to develop an antidote for drug A as soon as possible.

This is also for the sake of the loved one!

"Welcome home"

The front door to the foyer was opened early in the morning.

Akemi and Ai stood at the door, smiling as they watched their sisters and boyfriends return, but a hint of longing flickered in their eyes.
