Chapter 9: The Traitor

Shen Qiumu sent Chuan Xing 1 away, and liked to turn around and look at the embassy of M Zhou, which was surrounded by a high wall made of gray bricks.

There is an all-round monitor outside the high wall, as if everything outside can't escape its eyes.

Shen Qiu walked slowly along the wall, and finally walked into a dark alley.

Except for the occasional wild cat meow in the alley, there was only the sound of Shen Qiu's high heels.

The embassy was built in Ningyuan District, the main city of Zzhou, which is sparsely populated, with no population and no trade, only scattered residential buildings.

In such a place, naturally no one would know that after a heavy rain, Shen Qiu did not go to the embassy, but walked into a dark alley.

Shen Qiu walked in the alley, it was dark all around, and there were a few faint green lights not far away.

"Meow! ~Meow! ~”

Listening to the cat's meow, Shen Qiu did not stop and continued to walk into the depths of the alley, the more she went inside, the darker it became, and she couldn't see her fingers when she reached out to the black, and finally she saw two rickety red lanterns on the left side of the alley.

There was a strange red light emitting from the red lantern, and Shen Qiu stood under the lantern expressionlessly and looked up at the plaque.

"Little Shine Tavern"

Shen Qiu rhythmically knocked on the ancient and rustic door.

"Knock... Boom... Knock knock... Boom"

"Squeak."

The door of Xiao Shen's tavern opened a small crack, and Shen Qiu pulled it a little wider and went in.

The interior is no different from a typical tavern, with a bar counter and a wine cooler at the back, as well as a few scattered seats.

The Tavern shimmered with an eerie red light like the red lantern.

"Miss." An old, hoarse voice came from a corner on the side.

His voice was like a ghost in this tavern, very terrifying, but Shen Qiu was not afraid at all, he calmly walked to the round table on the side and put his bag on the round table.

Shen Qiu wiped the non-existent ash on the small stool next to him with his jade hand, and then sat down.

"Bring it up." A dagger was placed on the round table, and Shen Qiu picked it up, put it in his hand and stroked the blade.

Shen Qiu seemed to have a different face, completely different from the cold and arrogant during the day, at this time she was like a devil from hell.

Then the old man pushed a middle-aged man who was tied up with his backhand, and the man kept struggling, but the old man was holding down the man like an iron tong.

The man looked at Shen Qiu in front of him, and his pupils dilated instantly.

The man knelt on the ground and kept muttering something, but unfortunately his mouth had been stuck with tape and could only make a "hmm" sound.

Shen Qiu was not afraid of being cut, and his white fingers slowly stroked the blade.

Hearing what the man wanted to say, she took the dagger in her left hand and stroked twice in the air, then pointed at the man with the tip of the knife, and said coldly to the old man: "Tear off the tape." ”

The old man got the order, stepped forward and tore the tape off the man's mouth.

The sudden pain made the man curl up on the ground and wail, but he kept muttering, "I'm sorry Miss... I'm sorry, I'm sorry. ”

Shen Qiu sneered when he heard the man say this: "But you betrayed me, alas, what's the use of being sorry." ”

"I'm really... I really can't help it... If I don't... My family..."The man looked at Shen Qiu with teary eyes, and he knelt on the ground and kept crawling to Shen Qiu's feet.

When the old man saw the man's movements, he immediately pressed the man to the ground, then stood up and stepped on the man's head with his foot, allowing the man to moan "hmm" at his feet.

"Your family, it's not a reason for you to betray me." Shen Qiu stood up and walked in front of the man.

She held the knife up, and the red light reflected off the back of the knife.

"Actually, I thought he would find you, but I didn't expect it so soon."

In an instant, the man's pupils shook, and although he was stepped on by the old man, his eyes were always staring at Shen Qiu.

"You? Do you know who he is?! There was disbelief in the man's tone.

Shen Qiu smiled, she squatted down and patted the man's face, and a voice like a devil reached his ears.

"Not only do I know who he is, but I also know where you went after sending me and my brother off yesterday, and who you met, thinking that at this time, the person you saw was already on the road."

When the man heard Shen Qiu say this, he was very puzzled: "You obviously know everything, why... And let me report everything about you to that person. ”

Shen Qiu pressed the back of the cold knife against the man's face again and again, and said in a low voice: "Because I'm waiting for the fish to swim back to the fish nest, won't I be able to catch them all?" ”

After speaking, he stood up and turned his back to the man, and Shen Qiu's words woke up the man.

"Hahahahahaha

The man laughed, laughing madly, with some pleasure.

The group of people who persecuted him and his family were the Mo family, and people from three continents knew the ambitions of the Jun family.

knew that the Mo family was in F Continent, but he would never find the Mo family's lair.

The Mo family thought that his family was persecuting him, so he could calculate Shen Qiu, but he didn't expect to be backhanded by Shen Qiu, what a stupidity.

"Miss... I just want to ask... How did you see that I had betrayed you? The man thought that his performance was the same as usual, but Shen Qiu still saw through him.

He looked at Shen Qiu longingly, eager to know the answer.

Shen Qiu smiled with relief, and the dark red light hit her face, making her look very charming.

"If I can't even see the strangeness of the people around me, then I won't be able to get out of the Shen family's castle alive, and I don't deserve to be the eldest lady of the Shen family."

Shen Qiu's smile stung the man, and he closed his eyes and shed a tear.

Yes, the Shen family's ancient castle is full of calculations, intrigues, and blood, if she doesn't have a little ability, how can she come out of that bloody place unharmed.

Although he has been loyal to Shen Qiu for many years, in the final analysis, he is just a driver, he is not Ah San, he is not an old man, he did not follow Shen Qiu out of the Shen family castle with one bloody foot.

The man looked at the old man who trampled under his feet, and thought of Ah Sang again, thinking that if they were the ones who were found at that time, would they betray Shen Qiu like himself.

Thinking of this man, he smiled self-deprecatingly, as if the people around Shen Qiu, only he would betray.

Feeling a loosening of his head, the old man took the dagger from Shen Qiu's hand, looking at the old man who seemed to be walking over by himself, the man did not have the slightest fear, but closed his eyes calmly.
