It's cold!
Frank woke up in the chilly night, shivering in the wind. Although it was early summer, the night wind still felt unbearable.
Especially since he was in a place as eerie as a cemetery.
Pulling the anesthetic needle out of his neck, Frank felt relief mixed with frustration.
If the enemy could shoot an anesthetic needle directly into his neck, they could just as easily shoot him dead.
Although he had indeed let his guard down a bit because of the crying girl in front of him, given the enemy's marksmanship, he still had a high chance of not being able to dodge, even without the bait.
Fortunately, the other party didn't seem to want to kill him. He had managed to scrape by with his life!
But the tragedy was that his impeccable reputation was now completely ruined.
He walked out of the cemetery, feeling a bit frustrated. As soon as he got into the car, he saw several missed calls.
"It's me, Frank. The goods are gone!"
He immediately spoke into the phone, dialing the number from the missed call.
Frank was prepared to face the other party's fury. Losing his package as a courier was definitely a disaster.
Especially considering the methods the other party had used to place the order, they were definitely not someone easy to deal with!
"The goods are in the trunk of your car. Deliver them to the top floor of the Paris Montparnasse Tower within three hours." To Frank's surprise, the other party not only didn't blame him at all, but actually gave him another task.
He opened the trunk and saw the safe lying there untouched. Frank instantly felt a deep sense of malice from the world.
It was obvious that after he was knocked out by an unknown enemy with a tranquilizer gun, his employer had stepped in, chased away the enemy, and, by the way, snatched the box back.
But putting aside the fact that the employer had left him lying in the cemetery for the better part of a day, was it really necessary to have him transport the box from Paris to Orleans and then back to Paris?
Was this whole back-and-forth just a way to mess with him?
However, seeing the extra stacks of cash in the trunk, Frank decided that it was better not to think too deeply about such profound questions.
The other party paid, and he delivered the goods. Although the whole thing was a bit strange, the other party was also very generous. Plus, he had indeed lost the goods earlier, so he had no reason to refuse this reasonable request now.
Driving his beloved car, he sped towards Paris, not even having time to grab a drink!
"That guy's speed must be up to three hundred!" Jill watched the image projected by the Red Queen, a slight smile on her lips.
Originally, she was a little displeased that Li Qingyuan had said that her driving skills weren't as good as his, because Jill felt that she had never truly shown her full strength. Why should she be said to be inferior?
But now, seeing the speed Frank was achieving with complete focus, although Jill still refused to admit defeat, she had already confirmed in her heart that she seemed to be inferior to him in terms of driving skills!
Admittedly, many race cars in the world's top racing formulas could reach speeds of four hundred or even nearly five hundred. However, that was on standard racetracks, and they were also driving dedicated race cars.
To be speeding at three hundred miles per hour on ordinary roads was simply no different from suicide!
"No matter how good his driving skills are, it's useless. I've already instructed the Red Queen to lock down the elevators in this building later. Seventy-plus floors of stairs, and we'll make our move when he's halfway up!" Li Qingyuan said with a smile.
The system task showed that the task of robbing Frank Martin was already one-third complete; another robbery later would make it two-thirds.
After robbing him again, it would be arranged one more time to try to complete the task before noon tomorrow!
As for whether the other party would collapse mentally because of being robbed three times within twenty-four hours?
It seemed that Frank had been a gold medal escort for so many years, so his psychological resilience shouldn't be that bad!
Moreover, as the saying goes, "misfortunes never come singly." The kidnapping task for Brian has also changed, becoming a countdown of three hundred and fifty-three hours. It seems that kidnapping isn't just about catching the person; it actually requires time to be calculated.
It's a good thing he didn't wait until the last minute to do this mission, or else he wouldn't even have enough time for the countdown!
"Are you feeling better?" Jill walked over to Jin Mi and asked her.
"Much better! Thank you!" Jin Mi quickly nodded in thanks. She had washed her face for forty minutes straight to get rid of the burning sensation.
Although her face still felt a little sore, the good news was that her eyes were fine!
"Who exactly are you people?" Jin Mi saw Li Qingyuan walking to the other side, and lowered her voice to ask Jill.
Compared to that demon who squeezed onion juice on her face, Jin Mi felt that this graceful big sister seemed easier to talk to.
Besides, after a day and a night of being together, she had finally calmed down.
These two people drove top-of-the-line luxury cars, and the place they stayed was also magnificent. They didn't seem like kidnappers at all.
After all, if the other party was looking for her stepfather, that would be understandable, since her stepfather, Stuart, was at least a wealthy man. But her own biological father?
Not to brag, but her dad's total assets probably weren't enough for the other guy's daily expenses.
Because she didn't have to worry about anyone coming after her later, Jill had been spending money like crazy these past few days. Limited edition items were being delivered by the truckload. Even though Li Qingyuan reminded her that she couldn't possibly take any of it back, Jill didn't care at all.
In her words, buying clothes and bags was just like Li Qingyuan chatting with those beautiful women: purely to satisfy her collector's obsession.
Although she would basically choose her favorite one every day when going out, even if she wouldn't even wear the bags and clothes she bought even once, it didn't stop her from putting them somewhere and looking at them!
With her saying it like that, what else could Li Qingyuan say?
Moreover, the reason he brought Jill back to the main world in the first place, besides the deep feelings they had developed, was because Jill would definitely not interfere with his private life!
Having survived alone in the apocalypse for more than half a year, Li Qingyuan was, for Jill, the most important dawn in her life, not to mention that he had also helped her save the world.
So, even though this guy sometimes couldn't control himself, Jill would turn a blind eye.
Anyway, relatively speaking, aside from this minor flaw, this guy could be considered a decent person!
"Little girl, curiosity can be dangerous for a hostage!" Jill patted Jin Mi's cheek with a smile; this little girl was quite fun.
