"There's no point in saying all this now," Jiang Cheng interrupted before he could finish. His voice was as firm as iron. "Fatty has already set off. We're on a mission, and there are no absolutely safe options here. Now that we've made a decision, we need to believe in our judgment."

This principle wasn't hard to understand. Yao, Shun, and Yu of the past weren't hesitant people either, but this time was different. This time, Wang Fugui was the one venturing into danger, and he truly couldn't set his mind at ease.

"I understand."

Yao Shunyu shifted his gaze, looking at the lonely, stout figure standing not far away.

*Crack—*

*Crack—*

...

The fatty, constantly on guard, trembled slightly. He heard it. The Disaster Woman's appearance was faster than he had anticipated.

Even though he had prepared himself mentally, the fatty couldn't help but clench his fingers when he saw that strange figure.

The Disaster Woman shuffled out of a shadow, and to the fatty's surprise, the red veil that had been lifted earlier was now perfectly back in place. As the Disaster Woman approached, the edge of the veil trembled constantly, as if it could fall off at any moment.

The fatty took a deep breath, gave one last look at the spot where Jiang Cheng and Yao Shunyu were hiding, and strode forward to meet the Disaster Woman.

With the experience left behind by those who came before, the fatty's actions were smooth. He imitated Zhang Qizheng's movements, maintaining the same speed as the Disaster Woman. As the Disaster Woman advanced, he retreated. Although the Disaster Woman's figure swayed violently and her movements were greatly distorted, this was no problem at all for the extremely agile fatty.

As the veil was lifted, the Disaster Woman's corpse-like face was revealed. Her lifeless eyes slowly turned, eventually fixating on the fatty's face.

"Name..."

"A name that belongs to me..."

The Disaster Woman raised her hand and gripped the fatty's wrist. Her voice was devoid of emotion, like an old-fashioned tape recorder. The repetitive tone was unusually oppressive, making people panic.

While retreating, the fatty loudly reported what he saw to Jiang Cheng, "She grabbed my hand and is asking me for her name. The real Former Madam is behind the Disaster Woman. I saw her out of the corner of my eye. She's probably... probably less than 10 meters away."

As the fatty shifted his gaze, wanting to take a closer look at the Former Madam's appearance, the Former Madam, who had been moving calmly, seemed to sense a threat and suddenly increased her speed.

At this rate, she would reach him in less than half a minute.

The fatty was startled, but he still tried to stabilize his emotions as much as possible. His voice trembled slightly, "Don't look directly at the Former Madam, or you'll trigger her attack. She's coming towards me, and she's very fast."

Hearing this, Yao Shunyu nervously swallowed. From his perspective, he could only see the fatty and the Disaster Woman. This was a true horror story.

"The Former Madam's head... her head is strange. She also has a red veil, and the head under the veil is as big as two normal heads, no, it should be twice as long. It's getting closer... she's getting closer to me, I can see clearly, there's no place on her body to hide the embroidered ball, only her head, the embroidered ball is probably under her red veil!" The fatty was still shouting information at the top of his lungs at the last moment.

"She's coming..."

As the last words fell, the fatty's mission ended. He stood motionless, turning into a new statue.

The Disaster Woman released her hand, took small steps, and gradually disappeared into the darkness ahead.

When everything had settled, Jiang Cheng and Yao Shunyu rushed out of their hiding place. Yao Shunyu's eyes instantly turned red as he looked at the motionless fatty in front of him.

The red string around the fatty's neck had also been broken, the copper coin was lost, and the eyeballs under his eyelids were constantly moving, a scene that was both strange and familiar.

Shao Tong didn't appear. Lu Qin stood alone opposite Jiang Cheng and Yao Shunyu, softly comforting them, "Don't worry, I'm next. The information Wang Fugui sent is very important. I will end this mission and get the embroidered ball. Everyone... everyone will come back to life."

Hearing this, Yao Shunyu lost control of his emotions and shouted at Lu Qin, "What nonsense are you talking about! This is all your fault. You must have been playing tricks before, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence?"

Hearing this, Lu Qin seemed too lazy to pretend anymore, staring at Yao Shunyu's angry face and sneering, "Yao Shunyu, you need evidence to speak."

Seeing that the two were about to turn from arguing to fighting, Jiang Cheng stopped Yao Shunyu, then turned to look at Lu Qin, "I won't pursue what happened before, but from now on, if I find any evidence that you and Shao Tong are secretly plotting, I won't let you go."

"Hurry up and prepare, it's your turn next."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Cheng seemed to suddenly notice something. He turned around and looked around. Everything was quiet, and there was no one in sight. "Where's Shao Tong? Where did he go?"

The tone of Jiang Cheng's voice changed as he asked the question, with a strong hint of questioning, as if he had always been hostile towards Shao Tong.

"Shao Tong is looking for the best observation position."

Lu Qin brushed it off with a casual sentence, but her hand reached into her pocket very naturally. After her fingertips touched the copper coin, she felt more at ease. No matter what unexpected things happened, she could at least protect herself.

She didn't trust Shao Tong either. Shao Tong was just a tool, and after being squeezed dry of all value, the tool naturally lost its meaning. Shao Tong's fate was already sealed.

The Night Watcher could let Shao Tong leave, but only as a corpse or a handful of ashes.

Lu Qin secretly observed that Jiang Cheng and Yao Shunyu became very nervous after realizing that Shao Tong was gone. It seemed that these two had also realized the danger. Lu Qin sneered in her heart. These two weren't bad at being vigilant, but it was all too late.

As time passed, Jiang Cheng and Yao Shunyu had no choice but to leave unwillingly. Lu Qin lowered her head and glanced at the fatty, a cold glint appearing in her eyes, "Wang Fugui, your death is coming."

As the calling grew closer, Lu Qin stopped lingering and slowly walked towards the direction of the footsteps.

*Crack—*

*Crack—*

...

The strange footsteps were constantly approaching, but Lu Qin was not only not afraid, but even had some anticipation. She was about to end it all with her own hands, kill Wang Fugui, and plunge Jiang Cheng into the abyss.

She fully understood what this meant for the Night Watcher. When she went out, she would be treated like a hero. She might even be able to rise to the higher levels of the Night Watcher, becoming a powerful figure in the new world of the future.

Suppressing her thoughts, the Disaster Woman finally appeared. She approached and meticulously removed the Disaster Woman's veil. Facing those hollow, gray eyes, Lu Qin showed an unusual composure, "Listen, your name is Wang Fugui."

As soon as the three words "Wang Fugui" were spoken, the Disaster Woman released her hand and stepped aside. Lu Qin breathed a sigh of relief, raised her head, and ahead was the path to the Former Madam.
