The storefronts at Seven Miles appear uniform, with front-facing entrances, a small window left at the back, and the second floor available for washing, living, or storing goods.
"Click!"
Accompanied by a subtle noise, the rear window was gently pried open by someone.
"Sister Lianlian, after you."
Da Wei turned around, seeing Sister Lianlian in tight-fitting nightwear skillfully slide into the shop like a boneless, supple snake.
The tight clothes highlighted her curvaceous and graceful figure, and a faint scent wafted through the air, causing Da Wei's eyes to blur and his heart to race.
That figure...
So hot!
No wonder Boss Qi couldn't get enough of her.
Even though his heart was restless, Da Wei dared not make a move, not just because he feared Boss Qi; Sister Lianlian herself wasn't someone to be trifled with.
She had the nickname Black Spider, though she appeared tender and alluring, she was actually ruthless, and when fighting, even more relentless than men.
By the time Da Wei climbed into the shop using a short ladder, Sister Lianlian had already reached the second floor.
Like other shops, the first floor of Square Porcelain was a storefront for business, and the second floor was split into half for living and half for storage.
The most conspicuous thing was the safe.
Sister Lianlian gestured for Da Wei to stand guard while she lightly turned the dial beside the safe, listening intently.
"Click!"
After a few simple attempts, the safe was opened.
Sister Lianlian's expression was filled with amusement which suddenly froze as she pulled it open.
There was another!
Moreover, the safe inside was obviously different from the one outside, more complex and ingenious, far from easy for even her to open.
She turned to Da Wei and gestured.
Wait!
Da Wei understood.
Sister Lianlian took out a small bag from her waist, opened it, and selected slender tools, exerting force on the safe.
"Tsk..."
The slight noise thrilled her enchanting eyes with joy.
There's a way!
Just then, a voice devoid of emotional fluctuation resounded in the room:
"What are you doing?"
"Who?" Da Wei's body tensed as he drew a knife, staring directly at the hazy figure in front, poised to strike.
"Sneaking into my house and asking me who I am?" Fang Zheng shook his head:
"The voice of your friend sounds familiar."
Under the dim starlight and without lights in the room, Da Wei's voice was twisted and distorted with tension, making it hard to recognize.
"Kid, don't look for trouble."
Da Wei lowered his voice, approaching with the knife:
"We're here for money, don't force me to act!"
His eyes widened, shouting:
"Have you ever hacked someone? Seen a dead body? I've hacked, I've seen! If you don't want to die, squat there and pretend you didn't see anything."
"Damn!"
"Can't you understand human language?"
As his threats drew no response, and the other dared to keep approaching, rage flooded Da Wei's mind as he kicked forward.
He remained somewhat rational, not immediately resorting to knife use.
Once blood was drawn, things would escalate.
"Bang!"
A muffled sound arose, Da Wei felt an ache in his chest, his whole body soaring off the ground, crashing to the floor, the knife flying out of his grip.
After landing, his mind was blank, with pain all over, unable to muster a bit of strength.
What just happened?
What's going on?
Fang Zheng brushed the dust from his clothes, pressed the switch on the wall, and the incandescent light flickered several times before stabilizing, illuminating the entire second floor.
The person lying on the floor was masked in black silk, appearing somewhat familiar.
The other was a woman.
Sister Lianlian, in tight nightwear, bent and stood up, with eyes shimmering under the eye mask embroidered with black spider patterns, looking as if they could drip water.
Enchantingly alluring!
Though her face was unseen, it was clear she was a woman whose charm went down to her bones.
"Handsome."
Sister Lianlian's voice was sultry:
"Why be so harsh? We're just here to wander."
"Tell that to the Public Security Bureau." Fang Zheng pulled out his phone, ready to dial the police.
"Handsome, really so ruthless?" Sister Lianlian's face changed slightly, then she feigned a pitiful expression, removing her eye mask to reveal a delicate face.
"Could you not be so strict, just for... I'm begging you."
She pulled her hand.
"Sliding..."
Her tight-fitting clothes were cleverly designed apparel, pulling the zipper, and the outfit slid from her body.
Underneath, there was nothing.
White to the point of fear.
Even seeing only her back, Da Wei, lying on the floor, forgot his pain, greedily scanning back and forth, entranced.
"Swish!"
In the instant Fang Zheng hesitated, a cold flash suddenly appeared.
No man could be immune to her body, Sister Lianlian was confident in this move, having dealt with countless opponents with it.
This time,
Would be no exception!
"Snap!"
The cold flash was about to strike, but a large hand firmly grasped the woman's wrist, with eyes turning cold, merciless, as if she were already a dead woman.
Sister Lianlian felt a chill in her heart, hurriedly saying:
"Right..."
"Swish!"
The cold flash sliced in reverse, accompanied by a piercing screech. Sister Lianlian clutched her face, retreating repeatedly, blood seeping through her fingers.
"Ah!"
"My face, my face!"
"Ah..."
Da Wei's eyes widened, breathing nearly stopped.

Public Security Bureau.
Qi Yuan lay in a chair with closed eyes.
"Boss."
A subordinate approached, bending down to speak quietly:
"Sister Lianlian's face is ruined, she refuses to come out and meet you, Da Wei likely scared witless, can't get anything out of him."
"Mr. Wu hasn't arrived yet?"
"Estimated to arrive in an hour." The subordinate bowed his head, saying:
"Mr. Wu mentioned attempted theft isn't a big problem, if not the principal, they can be out in a few days, even the principal can apply for bail, but the issue is using the knife..."
"It was Fang who used the knife." Qi Yuan's expression sank:
"The injured, aren't him!"
"Yes, yes." The subordinate agreed hastily:
"Therefore, Mr. Wu plans to accuse Fang of excessive self-defense, with suspicion of attempted murder, but this needs fixing with Sister Lianlian and Da Wei first."
"Hmm." Qi Yuan's eyes revealed malice:
"Let's do it."
"Tsk... tsk..."
While the two had their quiet discussion, footsteps resounded.
"Boss Qi."
Zhou Ping stood expressionless:
"Were your men committing burglary? Armed assault?"
"Chief Zhou." Qi Yuan raised an eyebrow, stood up:
"As the Chief of the Public Security Bureau, such words must not be spoken lightly, it was merely entering the house by mistake, moreover the armed attacker was Fang, I haven't settled with him yet."
"But..."
He spoke slowly:
"With the chief's busy schedule, why bother with such trivial matters?"
"Fang Zheng is my junior." Zhou Ping's tone was flat:
"Burglary, armed assault, this matter won't end simply."
"Your junior!" Qi Yuan's facial muscle twitched, expression shifting:
"Indeed..."
"What a coincidence!"
"Hmph!" Zhou Ping snorted coldly, stepping forward.
At the Public Security Bureau's entrance, Fang Zheng was waiting, hastily heading to meet him.
"Senior!"
"Hmm." Zhou Ping nodded, saying softly:
"That was her face, you were too harsh, a bit deeper and it could lead to a fatality, even I can't handle it then."
"Right, right." Fang Zheng smiled wryly:
"The situation was urgent, I didn't react properly at that moment."
In truth,
It was precisely because he reacted that he held back at the last moment, otherwise, the female thief wouldn't just have a ruined face, she might've died on the spot.
Experiences in Otherworld kept him tense, the first reaction to danger was always lethal.
"In this matter, you're in the right. With me here, nothing bad will happen." Zhou Ping sighed lightly:
"Though Qi Yuan's vindictive, this time is nothing, but in the future you should be careful."
"I will." Fang Zheng sighed in relief:
"Thank you, Senior."
