Chapter 1817 - 1809: Poisoned
Chapter 1817 - 1809: Poisoned
The alley was dim, and a flash of razor-sharp cold light pierced the darkness for an instant.
The woman who had crashed into him from the opposite side was in a black leather outfit, hair disheveled, features cold and aloof.
It was just that her face was a bit deathly pale.
She looked like she was injured.
In her hand was a sharp blade, one that could release that kind of vicious gleam even in a dark corner!
And.
There was poison spit on the blade!
Lin Tianyee smelled it the moment it hit his nose!
Not only that.
On this woman’s body, Lin Tian could also feel an incomparably intense murderous aura!
The kind of killing intent you only get after slaughtering a lot of people!
An assassin!
This was a female Assassin!
It was just that the woman’s Attack looked like every move was lethal, but her Attack was already somewhat weak and powerless.
Before Lin Tian could even strike back, the blade that was halfway through her Attack clattered to the ground.
Pu chi~
The female Assassin spat out a mouthful of blood on cue.
But she was stubborn; she braced herself to pick up the blade, snarling, "You wanna catch me? No way in hell!"
Except.
She had just bent halfway down when Lin Tian suddenly slammed her against the wall.
At the same time, one hand clamped over her mouth.
Damn it!
The blade wasn’t picked up, and now she was suddenly ambushed. Qin Yuegu wanted to fight back, but found she couldn’t muster any strength at all.
Is it over just like this?
Qin Yuegu’s heart sank.
No!
She was still unwilling.
She suddenly forced her mouth open and viciously bit down on a bit of flesh on Lin Tian’s palm.
At the same time she tried her best to struggle.
Even if she couldn’t muster strength, she could still twist her body.
"What are you, a dog?"
The bite hurt so much that Lin Tian bared his teeth in pain.
Luckily his skin and flesh were tough as leather now.
If she kept biting, he was worried this woman’s teeth would break first.
But he couldn’t care that much; covering her mouth, he dragged her into a corner.
"If you don’t wanna get caught, then shut up!"
Lin Tian warned in a low voice.
Right then.
A sound of footsteps was already coming from not far away—it was a group of men with killing intent all over them.
"Hurry up and chase! Don’t let her get away!"
"She ran into this maze of alleys, search!"
"Daring to come to my Zhuo Family and run wild, she must be tired of living!"
...
This whole area of alleys crisscrossed in all directions, extremely complicated.
Outside.
All sorts of cold, vicious shouts echoed.
Qin Yuegu, who had been trying to struggle, suddenly widened her beautiful eyes and stopped moving.
After a long while.
The shouting around them gradually faded away.
At this moment, Qin Yuegu understood that the young man before her was helping her.
He wasn’t with those people!
This made Qin Yuegu finally relax completely.
"Don’t move, they haven’t gone far yet!"
Lin Tian frowned slightly and barked at Qin Yuegu in a low voice, "I’m not afraid of those guys, I just don’t like messy, complicated trouble I can’t be bothered to sort out. If you move again, I’ll toss you out there to them!"
That line worked instantly.
Qin Yuegu quieted down.
"Alright, it’s over."
Not long after, Lin Tian released his hand from Qin Yuegu’s mouth, curling his lip as he spoke.
But as soon as he finished, Qin Yuegu’s booted foot stomped down hard, grinding on his toes.
Even though Lin Tian could ignore this kind of Attack, it still hurt like hell; he grimaced and sucked in a breath.
"Why are you biting and stomping? I just saved your life!"
Lin Tian glared and growled, "Careful or I’ll strip you and throw you out on the street!"
"You... you let go of me,..."
Her silver teeth were clenched so hard they creaked; Qin Yuegu was so furious she could eat Lin Tian alive.
Huh?
Lin Tian blinked, only now realizing.
"Uh... my bad, my bad, misunderstanding!"
Lin Tian gave an awkward look, rubbed his nose, and let her go.
"...I’m gonna kill you..."
Qin Yuegu’s eyes turned red with grievance as she roared, her face radiating killing intent.
"I saved you, you know!"
Lin Tian glared back, speechless. "And you’re an Assassin, right? Hmph, I could tie you up right now and send you straight to the station! But instead I saved you. I copped a tiny feel, and you wanna kill me? That’s some ungrateful shit right there! If you keep acting all fierce, I swear I’ll strip your clothes off and put you on display on the main street. Don’t believe me? Try me."
"You..."
Qin Yuegu’s whole body went rigid with fright, her face a mix of anger and grievance.
But suddenly.
Her vision blurred, her body went even weaker, and she collapsed all at once.
Lin Tian reacted fast, catching her in time.
"You’ve been poisoned!"
His Divine Sense swept once over Qin Yuegu, and Lin Tian’s brows knitted as he spoke coldly.
At the same time he noticed Qin Yuegu’s body starting to heat up, a natural, dense fragrance spilling from her, enveloping the air.
Poisoned!
It was some sort of chun~drug-type toxin!
"You... you’re not allowed to do anything to me..."
Qin Yuegu also realized something was wrong with her condition, and hurried to warn Lin Tian.
"Enough, where do you live, I’ll take you back."
Seeing her like this, Lin Tian couldn’t keep a straight face anymore and could only lower his voice.
Even if she really was a female Assassin, it had nothing to do with him.
An Assassin wasn’t necessarily a bad person!
And since he’d already helped, he couldn’t just dump her here. Otherwise, he might as well have turned around and walked away earlier without saying a word.
"Fine... fine, you’d better behave. If you dare touch me again, I’ll kill you!"
Qin Yuegu shot him a fierce look with her beautiful eyes, issuing one last warning, then pointed north and said, "Take me to the Four Seasons Hotel on the second block ahead, Room 2 on the eighth floor! Thanks! I’ll definitely repay you properly later..."
If you’re gonna help, help to the end!
Lin Tian gave a light nod, then supported Qin Yuegu as they walked out of the alley.
Outside, he hailed a cab smoothly and headed to the Four Seasons Hotel she’d mentioned.
Qin Yuegu was completely out of strength, almost unable to walk.
Helpless, Lin Tian had no choice but to carry her on his back into the hotel.
All the way, the people around just assumed Qin Yuegu had gotten drunk and was being carried back by someone; no one paid them any mind.
Eighth floor, Room 2.
Lin Tian set Qin Yuegu down by the head of the bed and shut the door securely.
When he turned back, he found she had already passed out, her body burning up as if she had a raging fever.
