Like Lin Yu and Fu Luo, there would never be brothers this close again

Inside the factory, Fu Luo listened to the dense noises overhead and watched the occasional glimpses of firelight filtering through the cracks, his heart filled with worry and anxiety.

"We have to win... Old Five!"

Explosions, clanging metal, and various other loud and violent noises followed one after another.

Fu Luo didn't know who had the upper hand or the lower hand, but he could tell from the noise that the battle must be very intense.

This must be an unprecedented battle where both sides use every means at their disposal, and the horror is extreme.

Fu Luo felt a mixture of joy and worry.

The good news is that although "Heavenly Artisan" has reached the "Tier 2," he still doesn't seem to be able to easily control "May May."

The battle sounds so intense that it must have been caused by a fierce counterattack from Old Deng's good brother—a one-sided situation wouldn't have such a flurry of activity!

In particular, a faint, low growl from Heavenly Artisan could be heard from above every now and then, mixed with resentment.

Clearly, this kind of emotion only arises from a prolonged and unsuccessful attempt to conquer "Heavenly Artisan"!

What I'm worried about is...

Precisely because of the intense and deadlocked nature of the match, "May May" still has the possibility of losing!

Fu Luo could do nothing but pray silently.

He tried to struggle, but the wire binding him was too tight—and he had no Item to solve the problem.

At this moment, Fu Luo also realized that this was the second time he had been kidnapped in reality and rescued by May!

Although in a sense this trouble was caused by May, Fu Luo does not hold a grudge against May for it.

He just remembered the last time he was kidnapped by that woman from the "Marauders," and he could only wait for May to come and rescue him.

However, last time, May handled it with ease...

This time, however, things might be different!

The frequency of the sound continued to increase and intensify, seemingly indicating that the intensity of the struggle on the rooftop was also rising!

Bound and tied up Fu Luo's heart pounded wildly, filled with worry.

After a long while, the sounds on the rooftop suddenly stopped, and the night abruptly fell silent.

"Has the result been decided? Who won?!"

Fu Luo clenched his fists nervously.

From the rooftop, the voice of the Heavenly Artisan rang out first.

"What a formidable opponent, 'May May,' I confess... I underestimated you!"

Hearing Heavenly Artisan's somewhat weak voice, Fu Luo became even more nervous.

Did Heavenly Artisan win?!

Fortunately, May May's voice rang out again, which reassured Fu Luo somewhat.

"You stray dog, once you Tier 2, you're actually quite troublesome!"

The sounds from the rooftop paused briefly, then suddenly a loud shout rang out.

"Trying to run away again?!"

It's the sound of May May!

Then, a "plop" sound came from the water, followed by hurried footsteps on the roof.

Fu Luo felt a little relieved.

It sounds like the good brother won, and Heavenly Artisan jumped into the river and fled again!

Then, the figure falling through the hole in the roof confirmed this.

In the dimly lit factory, Fu Luo saw a familiar figure walking towards her, and could no longer suppress her emotions.

"Damn! May! You're a fucking superman!"

I'll never have another brother as good as May May in my life!

"You fucking beat 'Tier 2,' I'll fucking kill you--"

But the cheers suddenly stopped.

Fu Luo suddenly saw that familiar figure, whose clothes were almost completely soaked in bright red.

The other person approached him with heavy footsteps, and the strong smell of blood filled Fu Luo's nostrils.

Fu Luo looked at the other person, a cheer choking in her throat.

"You... you... you..."

"Shut up, I won anyway—it's a pity he got away again."

The wires binding him were cut open with a knife, Fu Luo practically jumped off the machine tool. He grabbed May May, who was about to fall, and clung to her, completely ignoring the blood that had smeared on her clothes.

"You... you should call for help!"

Fu Luo said in a low voice.

"What if someone calls you and you die?"

Lin Yu sighed as he spoke, "He's still too weak. He only advanced to the 'Tier 2' and he's already pushed me to this point. It's truly shameful!"

Fu Luo fell silent.

No, the weakness and shamefulness are all within oneself.

Just as Fu Luo was feeling unusually down, he suddenly felt someone pat his face.

"After going through all this trouble to save you, have you said thank you?"

Hearing those familiar words, Fu Luo turned her head and saw a smiling face, and smiled back.

"Thanks, Dad... I'll take you to the hospital right away, and I'll cover the medical expenses!"

"Why go to a hospital? I haven't even used my abilities yet."

"Oh right, you're a 'Doctor'."

"If you really want to thank me, treat me to a nice meal!"

At the toll booth on the Outer Ring road of Jiang City, an ordinary Nissan sedan is queuing to pay the toll.

"There's a traffic jam at this toll booth..."

In the driver's seat, a shy young man in a plaid shirt, who looked like a science and engineering student, was complaining in Mandarin with a slight Wu accent, while holding the steering wheel with one hand and fanning himself slightly with the other.

This person was none other than "Paper Kite," the new "Order" officer transferred to Jiang City.

In the passenger seat, a burly man with a scar on his face and a samurai-style spiky hairstyle, carrying Briefcase, wiped the sweat from his brow. "Damn, it seems like tourism in Jiang City is quite popular lately. I really don't understand what's fun about Jiang City in the summer. Isn't this place one of the four 'furnaces' of China? -- Also, why doesn't your car have air conditioning?"

This person is naturally "Kres".

"It's a used car, the air conditioning doesn't work... I bought it cheap, so I'll just have to make do."

"It's like a kite, "Paper Kite said helplessly.

"Why can't we open it? What if it's a good thing?"

Kres said indignantly, then turned on the air conditioner.

Then, a strong gust of cold wind blew in, and Kres exclaimed joyfully, "Damn it, you tricked me to save fuel, but this can actually drive..."

But no sooner had he finished speaking than some bloody foam sprayed out of the air conditioner and got onto Kres's arm.

This startled Kres, who then quickly turned off the air conditioner.

"Holy crap, how much did you buy this car for?"

Paper Kite wiped the blood and foam from her face helplessly. "Three thousand five... I can accept this price."

"I can't accept this," Kres said, even though the air conditioning was off and he no longer felt hot. "Damn it, why didn't you tell me before I got in the car?"

"You were the one who insisted on hitching a ride with me after you found out I was coming to Jiang City," Paper Kite said calmly. "I didn't force you to."

Knowing he was in the wrong, Kres sighed and said, "Fine... anyway, broadly speaking, we're not exactly living beings either, so let's leave it at that."

Then, Kres wiped the bloodstains off the briefcase. "Besides, there's a dead person in the strictest sense inside... Sir, you've gone to a lot of trouble."

The briefcase naturally contained the items that Li Hua had entrusted to Paper Kite to deliver to Lin Yu.

Upon hearing Kres's words, Paper Kite sighed, "Which section will I fly you in later?"

"Let me see... The address says Fuqiao Garden, North Bridge District, just put it somewhere similar."

"You wouldn't take a murder case, would you?"

Paper Kite asked suspiciously.

Faced with doubts about supporting you, Kres proudly stood tall.

"Quite the opposite, it's a job posting for bodyguards!"
