Chapter 11 — My House Is 42 Degrees Hot, Turns Out It's A Horrifying Plot

I looked at Uncle Ly. Seriously.

“I need to keep something in an absolutely safe place.”

“A place only you guys know.”

“No one can find out.”

I gently shook the silver hard drive box in my hand. Uncle Ly looked at that thing. Look at the serious expression on my face again. He is a smart man. Immediately understood that inside that small box contained a huge problem. He did not ask anything more. Just silence for a few seconds. Then nodded vigorously.

“I understand.”

“Our company has an old warehouse in the suburbs.”

“Abandoned a long time ago.”

“Only us old brothers know the location.”

“The electricity and water were cut off there a long time ago.”

“On normal days, there are no ghosts.”

“I leave that to you.”

"I guarantee, even if the Jade Emperor goes down to look, he won't find it."

I breathed a sigh of relief. That's exactly what I need. I need a time warp. A moment to breathe. To think about what to do next. Hand over the hard drive to the police. Is the safest choice. Also the most direct option. But at the same time. Also the stupidest choice. I don't know how great "their" power is. I also don't know if there are people within the authorities or not. Once you hand over this unique talisman. I will go from being a hunter with a gun. Turned into an empty-handed sheep. Even though people are torn apart. I have to take the initiative myself. Right at that moment. A policeman stepped forward. Interrupted our conversation.

“Miss Khuong Ninh, right?”

“We belong to the City Criminal Police Team.”

“There are a few issues that need your cooperation in providing information.”

“Okay, comrade.”

I gave both the bank card and the hard drive to Mr. Ly. Then lean closer. Use a volume that only two people can hear.

“Waiting for my news.”

Uncle Ly squeezed my hand.

"Take care."

I followed the police to a car parked on the side of the road. Report the entire incident from beginning to end. I hid the part related to the hard drive. And also the man in black. I'm just saying. Due to the unusual temperature in the house, I had a dispute with my upstairs neighbor. While moving house. I discovered that they illegally renovated the electrical system and installed a large number of devices of unknown origin above my ceiling. After a conflict occurs. Vuong Cuong's dog pulled up the hedge together. Activate a previously prepared incendiary device to destroy evidence. My testimony is reasonable. There was also Uncle Ly and others as witnesses. Completely steady. After taking testimony. The police officer comforted me:

“Miss Khuong Ninh, please rest assured.”

"The criminal acts of Vuong Cuong and Luu Phuong have basically been clarified."

"They are suspected of committing many crimes such as illegal business, theft of national electricity resources and intentionally setting fires to endanger the community."

“What awaits them will be the punishment of the law.”

I nodded my thanks. But in my heart I understand very clearly. Things are absolutely not that simple. Vuong Cuong is probably just a chess piece. Really scary stuff. It's the one controlling the chessboard behind him. After taking testimony. The clock showed three o'clock in the morning. I can't return to my new home temporarily because we need to coordinate the investigation. My old house has turned into a pile of ruins. After just one night. I became homeless. The police asked me if I had Are there any relatives or friends who can rely on me? Finally, they arranged for me to stay temporarily at a nearby hotel. I took the room card. Walking alone on a quiet street at dawn. The night wind is very cold. Blowing makes me tremble slightly. I turned my head. Looking at the apartment building in the distance, there was still black smoke. It used to be the "oven" I lived in for two years. I once wanted to leave it so much. I have succeeded. I got rid of a small oven. But instead he rushed headlong into a giant invisible furnace. I don't know what will happen in the future. I don't know how those people hiding in the dark will use them to deal with me. I don't even know. Will I see the sun tomorrow? But I wasn't scared. An unprecedented fighting spirit flared up in my heart. I clenched my fist. You guys want to play, right? I will play with you until the end.
