What To Do If The Heroine Escapes From The Book

Chapter 109

Chu Ge on the other side felt a sound in the living room and woke up from his sleep. The Qiu Wuji in his dream was gone.

Chu Ge was extremely angry and grabbed a chair by the bedside and rushed out.

At a glance, he saw a person in black wandering around the hall with a confused expression, as if sleepwalking. There were burn marks on this person’s face, and Chu Ge easily concluded that he was the one who was electrocuted by Qiu Wuji’s thunder net.

Sure enough, the water-based ability user had come to his doorstep. How did he find him?

And how did he end up sleepwalking here?

Turning his head, he saw “Zhuang Zhou’s Dream of the Butterfly” hanging in the living room, flickering with a faint light.

So that’s it… the opponent has fallen into an illusion attack, and who knows what he has seen…

An opportunity!

Chu Ge swung the chair overhead and smashed it down.

With a loud “bang,” the chair shattered into pieces, and the opponent groaned in pain as he was knocked down to the ground. His sleepwalking appearance became somewhat clear-headed. Ignoring the intense pain on his head, he rolled on the spot, avoiding Chu Ge’s kick, and collided with the edge of the treadmill.

Chu Ge followed closely, kicking towards the opponent’s abdomen.

At this moment, he also regretted it a bit. He lacked experience. When the opponent was sleepwalking just now, he should have gone to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife instead of smashing a chair. But fortunately, he now knows where he went wrong…

He kicked down, but stepped into the void.

The opponent’s abdomen mysteriously turned into water, and his foot passed through, landing on the floor. The person’s eyes flashed with a fierce look. Suddenly, his whole body turned into water, coiling around Chu Ge like a dragon or a snake, tightly enclosing him, as if trying to suffocate him alive.

Chu Ge remained calm and composed.

In fact, when his foot stepped into the void, similar speculations had already emerged in his mind. And sure enough, the next move was exactly as expected.

He closed his eyes, and his body burst into golden light. The small achievement of the Golden Bell Shield could already release its aura.

The indestructible golden shield forcibly separated all the water elements from his body, scattering them in a chaotic manner on the ground. They quickly wriggled and gathered, regaining their original human form.

The person was still in a dazed state from the impact and hadn’t reacted yet, when a big foot came flying towards him: “You actually wanted to suffocate me? Fuck you!”

“Bang!” The Iron Knight Chu Ge’s foot kicked him on the bridge of his nose. It felt like a mixture of sourness, sweetness, bitterness, and spiciness surged forth, and his entire face was covered in blood.

The person realized he couldn’t win and quickly transformed into a puddle of water, intending to escape through the crack in the door.

A flash of golden light, and Chu Ge squatted in front of the door with a smug smile, fiercely slapping the puddle of water: “Even if you turn into water, you’re not unscathed. Beating you up seems just as good.”

“Slap, slap, slap!” Water splashed everywhere.

Amidst the splashing water, the person’s voice of pain could be heard: “Stop hitting, I surrender, I surrender…”

“Surrender? Is that it? You fucking tried to kill me earlier!” Chu Ge continued slapping the water.

“No! No! Suffocating someone doesn’t necessarily mean killing them! I came here just to steal that pearl, really, just to steal the pearl, I didn’t mean to harm anyone!”

Chu Ge didn’t believe a word of it. Breaking into my house in the middle of the night, it wouldn’t be excessive no matter how much I beat you. If it weren’t for the illusion guardian of my Qiu Qiu’s ‘Zhuang Zhou’s Dream of the Butterfly’, who knows what you would have done to me while I was asleep? I wouldn’t even have known if you had decapitated me.

He felt a bit annoyed in his heart. How should he deal with this person who turned into water? How long should he keep slapping him before considering it finished?

Let’s go find some fire to roast him. But as soon as I leave, he’ll slip out through the crack in the door…

While hesitating, the puddle of water gradually shrank, the splashes ceased, and it slowly transformed into a person with a swollen and bruised face, curled up there, gasping for breath.

Chu Ge sighed, “Your ability is not that great… Turning into water and still getting injured is your biggest weakness. It’s even worse than a water-type creature. In wave form, you can dodge skills…”

The person spat blood and forced a smile, “Y-you’re too strong, the water-type creature is far inferior… Brother, let’s make a deal. You’ve beaten me like this, how about letting me go…”

Chu Ge neither agreed nor disagreed, pretending to know everything, and said indifferently, “How did you manage to find my place… Did you follow the aura of the pearl?”

The person slumped and said, “Yes… I searched the South River for the past two days until I sensed the aura nearby…”

In fact, he had been observing and thinking for a whole day. Chu Ge rarely ordered takeout now and would consciously go out for a walk. Even when eating, he would go to the entrance of the community. After observing for a day, the terrifying woman was not by Chu Ge’s side, so she must be a temporary companion, not living together. And since the pearl was here, it made things easier.

In this person’s mind, Chu Ge was hundreds of times less scarier than that woman. The rock that had been immovable for several days was easily pushed away by that woman, and with a flick of her hand, a lightning net swept through the seawater. If it weren’t for the insulating properties of his clothes, he would have been electrocuted.

This man, on the other hand, was easier to deal with. He seemed to be vulnerable, getting wounded by his own water arrow. If he had launched a surprise attack, he would have been caught easily.

But unexpectedly, he encountered some kind of psychic ability for no reason. He came in and dreamt of himself turning into a butterfly, flying and flying, and then a chair came down, and everything collapsed.

Chu Ge had a rough judgment in his heart and asked calmly, “What’s your name?”

“Hai… Hai Dongqing.”

Chu Ge raised his fist, “Are you kidding me?”

The man panicked, “No, I really am called Hai Dongqing!”

“… ” Chu Ge’s thoughts turned quickly, and he pretended once again, “What about a code name, like your organization with people like the Wallwalker?”

Hai Dongqing was genuinely shocked this time, “How… How do you know?”

Chu Ge felt secretly delighted. He had known for a long time that there must be other sinister and evil-minded organizations in Nanjiang besides the Black Room, because the Wallwalker guy had mentioned their circle. It had been a while since he encountered them, and now that he encountered a new face, the truth came out with just one test.

Hai Dongqing felt like Chu Ge truly knew everything and dejectedly said, “The Wallwalker was taken in by Lin Wuyang and he exposed our hideout. He also revealed the abilities of many of us… The police raided our hideout and caught several of our brothers… The remaining people changed locations and have been hiding for a long time, afraid to show themselves.”

“Has the heat died down now?”

“Recently, Lin Wuyang has been closely monitoring the Wang family, so he’s been less focused on other aspects. We took this opportunity to come out and take a breather…” Hai Dongqing helplessly said, “But, big brother, my encounter with you was truly an accident. I discovered the treasure there and had been keeping watch for three or four days, but you beat me to it, and I said whatever came to mind…”

Chu Ge sneered, “So, you didn’t say anything. You just sneaked up to my door in the middle of the night, just like the Wallwalker.”

Hai Dongqing suddenly had some realization… So the Wallwalker also fell into this person’s hands?

At this point, Chu Ge had basically understood the situation.

Originally, he was conflicted because his residence was exposed. If he let this person go, he would never have peace again, but he couldn’t bring himself to kill.

Now that it turned out this person was associated with the Wallwalker and needed to relocate to avoid the police, it indicated that he had a lot of dark history. If Chu Ge made a phone call to Lin Wuyang and had him taken in, he would probably end up serving several years, just like the Wallwalker. By then, Chu Ge would have moved out long ago. Did he have to spend his whole life hiding in this rented house?

So the situation was actually easily resolved. If there were difficulties, he could just contact the police.

Casually, Chu Ge took Hai Dongqing back to the bedroom, took out his phone from the bedside table, and was about to make the call. Hai Dongqing became anxious, “Big brother, big brother! Don’t call the police! I’ll give you a hundred thousand and let me go, how about that?”

Chu Ge remained unmoved and searched for Lin Wuyang’s number.

“Big brother, I won’t seek revenge on you in the future. If I do, I’ll be a dog!” Hai Dongqing desperately swore, pointing towards the sky. “Tonight, I have something very important to do. I left the team without permission to handle my personal matter. If it’s discovered that I fled the scene, it won’t be as simple as being taken in by the police. Even if I manage to come out, I’ll end up dead!”

Chu Ge’s finger hovered over the dial button and finally did not press it. He stared at Hai Dongqing and asked, “What urgent matter?”

Hai Dongqing stomped his foot and said, “The Wang family mentioned someone named Zhang Qiren. He will definitely sneak into their place to steal something in the next few days. They have hired many external ability users as guards, and our leader accepted a big contract and made a solemn commitment. If I run away, I won’t be able to stay in Nanjiang anymore!”

Chu Ge’s expression instantly became fierce.

This… Does Zhang Qiren have a mole, or is there a mole in the Black Room?

Regardless of Zhang Qi or the Black Room, they were both friends. If he didn’t know about this, it would be one thing, but now that he did, how could he peacefully stay at home and sleep? Perhaps both Zhang Qiren and Zhong Yi were not to be underestimated and had contingency plans, but he couldn’t sit still.

He took a deep breath and, amidst Hai Dongqing’s increasingly astonished gaze, dialed Zhang Qiren’s number.

No one answered.

He dialed Zhong Yi’s number, but no one answered either.

They must be in the middle of an operation, intentionally keeping their phones on silent.

Chu Ge couldn’t sit still any longer. He grabbed Hai Dongqing by the collar and said, “Where is the headquarters of the Wang family? Take me there.”
