Translator: 549690339

After dinner, Daisy Zane returned to her room, and Kevin Clark worked on some tasks as he saw it was still early.

At around 8 0’clock, Kevin Clark made a phone call to Allonzo Hobson.

“When can you get here?”

“I’m here, I’m upstairs with my mom.” Allonzo Hobson said, “Didn’t you see my message? I’ve been sending it for several hours.”

Kevin Clark’s gaze paused for a moment as he browsed the files, then he silently said after two seconds: “Leave at 9 0’clock.”

“Hmm, got it.”

Kevin Clark hung up and opened his WhatsApp.

In the afternoon, there were quite a few unread messages, but he was sure he had looked at them all, just not seeing any messages from Allonzo Hobson.

Allonzo Hobson’s name had already been pushed down to the bottom. He clicked on it and then gently raised an eyebrow.

It was a little past eight, and the sky was completely dark.

Daisy Zane changed into a black outfit, secured her hair with a hairpin, and left the room.

When she arrived at the living room, Anisa Cooper, who was writing on the tea table, looked up at her: “Daisy, what’s up? Anything wrong?” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

After asking, Anisa Cooper looked at her clothes and finally realized that she was probably going out.

“I’m going out for a bit.”

“Should I… go with you?” Anisa Cooper asked, her voice involuntarily getting quieter.

She suddenly remembered the man who had taken Daisy Zane away this afternoon and felt that she might have touched on something private.

And what flashed through her mind was that Daisy was having a clandestine rendezvous with a man – how exciting!

“No need.” Daisy Zane said, “You don’t have to wait for me, go to sleep if you’re sleepy.”

“Ah. Okay.” Anisa Cooper replied, hesitating a bit before saying, “Daisy, there are a lot of paparazzi around the hotel, be careful.”

Daisy Zane then left the room.

As she stood before the elevator, preparing to press the button, a déj? vu scene occurred.

Before she could press the button, the elevator door opened, and Kevin Clark was standing inside.

In that instant when their eyes met, it was as if they were back to their first encounter at the Doomsday Hotel.

Same scenario, same people.

Both of them seemed to freeze for a moment. After a few seconds, just when the elevator door was about to close, Kevin Clark blocked it with his hand:

“Come in.”

Daisy Zane entered the elevator and saw without asking that Kevin Clark pressed the button for his own floor.

Then she heard him laugh, “Daisy, what are you doing out so late?”

“Seems like I arrived at the right time.” Kevin Clark said, “If I were any later, I’d have to chase after you.”

Daisy Zane looked at him, her expression a bit cold.

It gave Kevin Clark a feeling that if his next sentence wasn’t something she wanted to hear, she would attack him.

“Didn’t mean to hide it from you.”

As soon as he said these four words, the elevator opened, but Daisy Zane didn’t move.

“Let’s talk about it in the room.” Kevin Clark’s voice was gentle, even a bit coaxing.

Daisy Zane thought for a moment and went back to the room with him.

Entering the room, she found that Michael Jackson, Thomas Firway, and Allonzo Hobson were all there.

After the three saw Daisy Zane, Michael Jackson stood up first and called someone, Allonzo Hobson looked puzzledly at Kevin Clark, and Thomas Firway frowned heavily.

Kevin Clark acted as if he hadn’t seen the three people at all. He sat with Daisy Zane on the double sofa and explained directly: “We’ve agreed to start the operation at 9 0’clock.”

“Third Master!” Thomas Firway called him.

Kevin Clark glanced at him. Without saying a word, Thomas Firway immediately behaved himself and even shrank on the sofa, trying to minimize his presence as much as possible.

Actually, not only was Thomas Firway confused, but both Allonzo Hobson and Michael Jackson couldn’t understand why Kevin Clark would bring Daisy Zane here at this time and tell her all this information.

However, Kevin Clark always had his reasons for doing things, and despite their doubts, neither of them spoke up.

Turning his head, Kevin continued, “Since the brick factory is in Red Cliff Village, the police recently conducted an investigation there.”

Daisy Zane looked at him.

“They asked them if anything unusual had happened in the village lately.” As Kevin spoke, he took some pistachios from the tea table and cracked them open. He then took out two tissues and put them on the table, placing the cracked pistachios on top. “In fact, the case of the brick factory had reached a dead end, so they started looking for a way out recklessly.”

Daisy’s gaze fell on Kevin’s hands as they cracked the pistachios.

“The address you saw is an abandoned courtyard whose owners had moved away more than 20 years ago. It has been deserted ever since.”, Kevin Clark said, “But suddenly, for several nights in a row, there were sounds coming from the courtyard with tire tracks right outside the courtyard. However, there was nothing unusual during the day.”

“Someone heard the noises at night and sneaked out to take a look, saying that they saw a few black-clothed people entering and going out from there. The villagers were scared. They didn’t dare to take a look or call the police. They were afraid of retaliation. It wasn’t until the police questioned them that they finally spoke.”

“So you investigated the owner of the courtyard?” Daisy Zane asked.

“Yes,” Kevin replied softly, “At first, they just went to the courtyard to take a look, and there were indeed signs that people had gone in. However, there was nothing particularly unusual, just some traces of people entering and exiting. So, they looked up the owner of the courtyard directly.”

Daisy couldn’t help but admire Kevin’s thinking. He was not blindly looking for a way out of the dead end; he had a basis for his actions.

Although Red Cliff Village may not be the only place like this, it’s a bustling place compared to other villages. Even if the brick factory’s location is hidden and the brick factory itself acts as a cover, it is not the best choice.

Even if the most dangerous places are the safest, there is too much population movement here, and it is easy to be noticed.

So… choosing Red Cliff Village had its own special reasons.

“According to the information on the household registration at the time, the person they found was consistent with the information provided by the neighbors. However, this person did not move away more than 20 years ago; he disappeared. He disappeared completely, and there were no traces of him left.” 

“Either he died, or he had a new identity and is still living,” Daisy Zane said. Allonzo Hobson couldn’t help but glance at Daisy Zane. Her voice was terribly cold, so cold that she seemed to have a heart of steel and no emotions.

Moreover, the thought process of an ordinary person would not be like this.

“And this person is a Doctor of Medical Formulation,” Kevin continued, “The main thing is that the people in the village don’t know that they have such a high level of education.” 

“What about his family?”

“He grew up with his aunt. Before moving away, he left a large sum of cash for his aunt, and then they lost contact.”

“Are they looking for something, or deliberately trying to draw you guys there?” Daisy Zane immediately addressed the key point.

Both Michael Jackson and Thomas Firway looked at her.

“The latter seems more likely,” Kevin raised his eyebrows.

. So, tonight you guys are going for a head-on confrontation.” 

“Yes,” Kevin answered, “If they still go there tonight.”

Daisy Zane: .

“So, Daisy, you should know that what you did just now was very dangerous, ” Kevin’s voice became a bit more serious. 

Daisy glanced at him without saying a word, picked up a cracked pistachio, put it in her mouth, and ate it slowly. 

But Kevin could tell from her expressionless face that she was thinking: It’s not yet clear who is in danger.

“These pistachios are quite delicious.”

Kevin Clark:

“They really are delicious.”

Kevin, speechless, finally smiled: “Well, they’re all for you. I’ll bring a few bags to the film set tomorrow.”  

Allonzo Hobson, Michael Jackson, and Thomas Firway:

“I didn’t intend to keep it from you,” Kevin explained, “I planned to tell you after tonight.” 

The other three people had puzzled expressions on their faces, still unable to understand why Kevin had shared this information with her.

Especially Thomas Firway, his gaze made it clear that he thought Daisy Zane was a dangerous woman, who had caused Kevin to cross the line and tell her about the important matters.

Daisy looked up at Kevin again.

He didn’t have to tell her all this. It was her who had secretly checked his cell phone.

As if he had seen through her thoughts, Kevin smiled and said, “You can check my cell phone at any time. I won’t change the password.”

Upon hearing this, Allonzo Hobson couldn’t help but twitch his lips. In all his years, he had never seen Kevin this “capable” before..
