It was dark inside the carriage, and the closed body swayed slightly as it drove.
Shen Kong sat leisurely in the back seat, playing with the Colt revolver lightly in his hand. The dark and hard metal surface reflected a subtle cold light in the dim and shaky light, like a sharp glance projected from the darkness. , shaking people's eyes hurt.
Sitting next to him, Brother Tang's face was as white as paper, his messy hair stuck to his sweat-covered forehead, his hands were still tied tightly, as if he were a frightened animal, and his flickering eyes looked at him from time to time. He glanced over, and then quickly turned his gaze away before Shen Kong looked over. As if he was burned by the reflection of the metal in his hand, which was the only weapon in his hand, he shrank and remained silent.
Finally, after looking at Shen Kong evasively several times, he finally mustered up the courage to break the deathly silence in the carriage and said:
"that… "
His voice was a little hoarse and trembled slightly, as if he had overcome the huge fear in his heart:
"Mingxuan... That, that text message, and the call to you in the garage were all taken by them with a gun and forced me. No, it was not my intention... "
Brother Tang hurriedly cleared away his responsibilities, fearing that Shen Kong would blame him for his previous betrayal.
Hearing this, Shen Kong raised his eyelids and glanced at him, and said lightly:
"I know."
After speaking, he casually withdrew his gaze, lowered his eyes and continued to play with Colt in his palm. His facial expression remained unchanged, and his light-colored eyes became more and more similar to inorganic glass beads under the changing light and shadow outside the window.
Brother Tang sat stiffly next to Shen Kong, even more uneasy because of his elusive attitude.
After another long period of mental construction, he plucked up the courage to speak again and stammered in explanation:
"As for the previous request for you to approach... approaching Han Li, it was all my boss, Han Zizhuo's idea. In fact, I don't agree with him at all, but as a subordinate, I have to act according to orders. Xi, I hope you will Don’t be offended…”
His voice became smaller and smaller, and in the end he even used the honorific title involuntarily towards Shen Kong.
Shen Kong frowned impatiently, raised his eyes and glanced at Brother Tang, and asked lightly:
"Aren't we being kidnapped now? Can we still speak?"
His gaze coldly swept over the man in black sitting next to Brother Tang. There was no big emotional fluctuation in his eyes, but it made the other person tremble instantly and he immediately picked up the prepared item from the side in a hurry. The tape tightly taped Brother Tang's mouth, and even tied it a few more times to prevent him from continuing to talk.
Brother Tang: "!!!"
Brother Tang: "Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh!"
His ears became quiet again, and Shen Kong withdrew his gaze with satisfaction, as if he didn't realize at all that he was actually more proficient in business than the others.
This time he was finally able to concentrate on the current situation.
If you follow the next development of the plot, he should be brought to Han Li as a spy placed by Han Zizhao, and Han Li learns about the betrayal of the person next to him, the murderous intention of his half-brother, and the murderous intention of his half-brother. After his mother's death, he completely cut off his desire for family affection and killed those three people. The easiest way to prevent this plot from happening is to strike first before Han Li takes action. Simple Brutal, but very effective.
—But for some reason, Shen Kong is not very willing to use this method to end the key point of the plot.
If he kills those three people, although he can complete the first main mission, he will also be directly teleported away due to his identity being exposed, leaving Han Li, who is still full of hatred and anger, in the present. His anger could not be vented, and he could not get the relief he deserved, so he was sealed in it forever. Although Shen Kong successfully prevented him from killing his blood relatives with his own hands, to a certain extent, Han Li was completely Pushed to destruction.
Maybe it's because he doesn't want his mission to fail like this, or maybe it's because of some more complicated and deeper reasons...
Shen Kong didn't want such a result.
He called out the system in his mind: "The question I asked before, you said you went to the studio headquarters to report it, what happened next?"
The system's sound remains flat and mechanical: "The studio has not yet responded."
Shen Kong gently rubbed the cold barrel of the gun, and the dark metal was stained with a touch of body temperature by his fingers. He was not discouraged and continued to ask:
"Is there any way that I can stay in this period for a while longer without my identity being exposed?"
The system's cold voice suddenly became alert: "Corrector, what do you want to do? Why do you ask this question suddenly? Are you trying to make some bad idea again?"
Listening to the bombardment of a series of questions in his ears, Shen Kong raised the corners of his lips slightly and slowly showed an innocent smile:
"Oh, why don't you believe me so much? How could I make a bad idea? I am now fully devoted to completing the task."
system:"… "
Ghost letter oh.
Shen Kong kept up his efforts and continued: "This is the first time you have released a main mission to me. It must be because this plot point is more important than others, and it even affects whether the real purpose of sending me can be achieved. , as long as you fail, all your previous efforts will be wasted, am I right?”
The system is silent.
Shen Kong then asked in a persuasive tone: "I asked you before, why did you choose me alone when there were so many people with positive and loving views? Although I didn't delve into the twists and turns, you are Most clearly, if I really fail this time, it won’t be very easy for you to find a replacement correctional officer, right?”
The system continues to be silent.
"You are the intelligent assistant assigned to me, right? If I fail, will you pay joint liability?"
Shen Kong suddenly changed the subject:
"... Moreover, I asked just now if there was a way, but you didn't seem to answer me yet."
The system still didn't answer. Shen Kong waited patiently. Just before his patience was about to run out, the system's mechanical voice finally sounded in his ears:
"Yes, there is."
Shen Kong's spirit perked up and he heard the system continue:
"If you complete all the main tasks at this plot node, there are still two key nodes that need to be transferred, and when you complete the tasks at those two nodes, you can return to your original world. If the corrector If your identity is exposed, generally the corrector will be sent directly to the next time point. I can extend the transfer time to ten minutes, but you will be sent directly to the studio for points settlement after the ten minutes are over. "
The system explained: "The world line will repair itself. If in the next two key nodes, the target character enters the original plot again due to force majeure, it will be judged that the corrector mission has failed, and you will lose all points. , the correctional officer’s spiritual body loses support, which is death.”
Shen Kong lowered his eyes with all his thoughts and instantly understood what the system meant.
If he extends his stay after his identity is exposed, he will no longer be able to participate in the subsequent plot. If Han Li returns to his original destiny after losing his guidance, then his mission will fail.
The question now becomes:
Whether he wants to exchange the next two mission opportunities for the stay time at this time node.
That is to say…
Is he going to go all out.
The system seemed to know how difficult this choice was, so it took the lead to break the silence: "The correction officer can seriously think about the feasibility of this matter, and after making a decision, you can call me. This option will be valid for a long time."
At this moment, the car slowly stopped, and the tall iron door of the Han family's mansion appeared in front of him. The sharp tip of the iron door reflected the dazzling light in the sun. It seemed to be the same as when Shen Kong came last time. There is no difference, but the atmosphere is obviously solemn and weird.
I saw a few tall men wearing the same black suits as the people in the car standing at the door vigilantly, as if waiting for something. Each of them had bulging bags on their waists, and they seemed to be equipped with weapons.
One of them saw their vehicle approaching the driveway with sharp eyes. After saying hello to the other person, he turned around and ran quickly in their direction.
Shen Kong leaned down slightly and pressed the muzzle of the gun against the back of the driver's seat. The subtle metal collision sound of the safety bolt opening was extremely clear in the silent car, almost making the listener's hair stand on end.
His voice was as low as a whisper: "You know how."
The driver sat up stiffly in the driver's seat and nodded.
The man who ran over frowned impatiently, knocked on the opaque car window, and scolded in English: "Why did you come so late? Have you found the person?"
The window slowly rolled down a narrow slit, revealing the driver's eyes. He said succinctly:
"Caught it. It's in the trunk. The road conditions are bad at this time. Let us go in quickly. They are still waiting above."
The man nodded, turned around and waved to the other man, and the door of the house slowly opened.
The car window rolled up again.
The vehicle drove along the driveway toward the house. When it reached a place where the two people couldn't see it, it stopped slowly.
All the people in the car got out of the car under Shen Kong's coercion.
Shen Kong looked around, then pointed his gun at the two people who were not badly beaten, and ordered: "You two, stand up."
The remaining two people stared at him in panic. They had already seen what the seemingly weak and beautiful young man in front of them could do when he was unarmed, and they did not dare to run away or call someone. To challenge Shen Kong's patience, he only dared to beg for mercy in a low voice, hoping that Shen Kong would be accommodating and not hurt his life.
Shen Kong slowly showed a gentle smile:
"Of course not."
He paused and said calmly: "You may not believe it, but I am a good person now."
After saying that, Shen Kong raised the butt of his gun and hit one of them on the back of the head with precision and ruthlessness. With a muffled sound, the man fell to the ground.
He shook the heavy metal block in his hand, turned to look at the other man who was stunned, narrowed his eyes slightly, and added in a soft voice:
"...So, just passing out is enough."
