Chapter 118 Obeying Orders

Ming regained her senses and began to untie Qiao Xiao, talking to her normally.

Ming: "I may have been too high-spirited lately and lost my mind. I'm sorry."

Qiao Xiao: You don't seem like someone who just recently lost their mind.

Qiao Xiao: "I can be your accomplice, but there's one thing: don't touch Gu Jinghe."

Ming: "As long as he voluntarily gives up chips and AQ, we will not touch him."

Qiao Xiao: "I will meet with him in person and talk to him."

Ming: "I'm happy to hear this, Miss Qiao, but before you leave, please take something with you."

The man in black behind him was holding a circular silver bracelet.

Ming added, "This bracelet was carefully crafted by me to make it easier for us to stay in touch."

Qiao Xiao immediately sensed something was wrong; there was something wrong with the bracelet, and it might even contain a bomb. But right now, there was no other way.

Qiao Xiao: "Okay." She immediately took the bracelet, put it on her wrist, and said casually, "We'll contact you later. But could you give me an audio device? I need to contact Gu Jinghe and find out about his situation."

Ming: "Of course." He asked the person behind him to hand her a cell phone.

Qiao Xiao: This phone might also have a GPS tracking feature.

After leaving the building, Qiao Xiao was led a short distance by men in black, who then dropped her off. Qiao Xiao immediately dialed a number after getting out of the car.

Nancy was taking care of Gu Jinghe and was about to help him wipe his sweat, but Gu Jinghe looked like he had seen a ghost and refused outright.

Gu Jinghe's voice trembled: "I'm sorry! Please stay away from me!"

Rosie was crying beside her: "Why did they take Cole away, Mom? Did you really see Cole drug him? Maybe it was a misunderstanding."

Nancy comforted her, "Oh, my poor daughter, it's not that I don't believe him, it's just that he really did it, and I really saw it with my own eyes. I can't cover for him, my daughter."

Gu Jinghe was sweating profusely and shivering, unsure whether his wound was poorly treated or infected. Suddenly, he heard a ringing bell.

He quickly got up, and Nancy and Rossi saw his movement and rushed forward to stop him.

Nancy: "What are you doing? You need to rest now, lie down."

Gu Jinghe pointed to the phone on the table and said, "Give it to me."

Rossi handed him the phone.

Gu Jinghe accepted without hesitation; he had a strong premonition.

"Jinghe, it's me."

Upon hearing the sound, Gu Jinghe burst into tears of joy. His face instantly shifted from indifference to disbelief, and then to a bittersweet smile.

"Xiaoxiao, where are you?" Gu Jinghe asked calmly, controlling his emotions.

Qiao Xiao: "I'm out safely now. We'll talk about the rest later. I'm coming to find you now. Where are you?"

Gu Jinghe: "I'm at Nancy's house."

Qiao Xiao: "Okay, I understand. I'll hang up now."

Gu Jinghe wanted to hear Qiao Xiao's voice a little longer, but fearing he might delay her journey, he remained silent, only saying with concern, "Be careful."

Qiao Xiao said gently, "Mm."

Unexpectedly, the screen on her bracelet lit up immediately, and Ming called her on video.

This bracelet is a dedicated contact line; only Ming can contact her, and others cannot connect to it.

Qiao Xiao: "What's up?"

Ming: "Ke has been taken to the charity center, and we need you to rescue him."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiao said with difficulty, "It's easy for me to go in, but saving him is not an easy task."

Ming: "You don't need to do it yourself. Just tell me the exact location where he will be detained, and I will take care of the rest."

Qiao Xiao: Arrange what? Blow them up? A cold glint flashed in her eyes.

Qiao Xiao: "What about Gu Jinghe?"

Ming: "We'll talk about Gu Jing's matter later."

System: "New storyline options will be automatically triggered"

Option 1: Go to the charity center

Option 2: Go to Nancy

Option 3: Return to the building

Friendly reminder: Your choices will lead to a death ending. Please choose carefully.

Qiao Xiao angrily retorted, "At this time?" She rubbed her eyes impatiently, "Go find Gu Jinghe."

Because this is a strategy game.

She said with certainty, "Choose two."

Unexpectedly, a flash of fire streaked past, and Qiao Xiao's head was buzzing. Without even asking, she knew she had made the wrong choice again.

Qiao Xiao was both embarrassed and angry. "What's going on?"

System: "The death process has been omitted for you. Option two is incorrect. The bad ending has been achieved - the Exposer. Please choose again."

Qiao Xiao questioned, "How did I die? Was someone preventing me from seeing Gu Jinghe?"

She dared not act rashly, lest she die again if she was not careful. She pondered what had made her make this choice at this juncture.

Qiao Xiao's gaze inadvertently fell on the bracelet, and she felt a chill run down her spine, her whole body immediately breaking out in goosebumps.

There's a bomb hidden in the bracelet!

Thinking of this, Qiao Xiao couldn't help but laugh to herself. She was utterly speechless. This terrorist organization really had a wealth of ammunition resources; they installed bombs on everything.

The only way to survive so far is probably to follow Ming's instructions. She reluctantly headed in one direction: to the charity.

Sorry, Gu Jinghe, I'll see you later.
