"Darling, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. I'm much better after sleeping for a night.”Liu Adou saw Assellin walk out of the kitchen and couldn't help but be surprised." What delicious food are you cooking?”
Assellin smiled." It's borscht. I learned it from my mother.”
Isn't that Russian food? However, it didn't matter which country it was from, as long as it was delicious." Let me try it."”
Of course, the taste was excellent.
"My mother inherited it from my grandmother and taught it to me.”
"Your grandmother is Russian?" Liu Adou asked curiously.
"Yes, but my grandmother left her hometown and came to the United States when she was very young. My grandfather is an American.”Assellin's mother was a mixed-blood. She had inherited her mother's excellent genes and was beautiful and generous.
Suddenly, Assellin widened her eyes and looked at Liu Adou." Tell me about your family.”
Liu Adou thought to himself that he had no family in this world." I'm an orphan. I grew up in Wayne Orphanage. I've been working since I graduated from high school.”These were Ah Dou's fake identities in this world.
Hearing that Liu Adou's background was so pitiful, Assellin's maternal instincts instantly erupted. She hugged Liu Adou and comforted him," You still have me now.”
"I still have you." Liu Adou felt guilty for deceiving such a kind woman, but he was a transmigrator.
The warm morning did not mean that the day was smooth.
When the two of them appeared at the television station, someone immediately asked them to meet the station head, which made them feel puzzled. There didn't seem to be any major matters that needed the Station Head's help recently.
"Please come in." Howard was sitting behind his desk, preparing something. When he saw Liu Adou and Assellin, he immediately stopped writing." You're here. Sit."”
"Station Head, is there anything you need from us?”Assellin thought that something had gone wrong with her work.
"Do you still remember the illegal diamond trade you reported before?”The station head was very busy, so he went straight to the point.
"I remember." The two of them nodded at the same time. That was the first big news they had found after the establishment of the independent news station." What's wrong?”
There shouldn't be any problem with that news. Hadn't Harvey Dent called to say that the evidence was conclusive and that the gang leader had been arrested again? Moreover, it was impossible for him to be bailed out this time.
However, he saw the Station Head's serious face. Clearly, it was not good news."The mafia has released news that they want to take the lives of the reporters who reported this deal, which means your lives.”The general manager said with a straight face," Although it's not new for journalists to be threatened because they report the truth, you have to be careful. You have to be careful these days.”
"Um." Liu Adou thought to himself," What's going on? They're just reporters. Should we call the police?"”
"Sergeant Gordon told me about this. If you agree, the sheriff is willing to send police officers to protect your safety.”the station head said.
"We don't need protection." Before Liu Adou could answer, Assellin had already made the decision." We're only reporting the facts. Do you think they can attack us in broad daylight? I won't be intimidated by these gangs.”
Her righteous speech made the station head look at Assellin in a new light." Good, this is my reporter. As a reporter, if you haven't been threatened before, you're not a good reporter. Being upright is the quality that reporters need. Alright, go back to work. I don't believe that anyone would dare to touch my subordinates.”
This general manager was also domineering. Although she didn't know what he would do, there shouldn't be any problems.
Liu Adou thought that this matter would be over just like that. He didn't realize how much those scums hated the reporters who took pictures of the deal. This time, the gang leader was facing at least 50 years in prison. Even the lawyer was helpless. Therefore, he was extremely angry. He wanted to use the most painful method to kill Liu Adou and Assellin, the two nosy reporters, so he asked his subordinates to hire assassins.
This was no longer a problem that Howard could solve.
" Giving the target the most painful death isn't to destroy their bodies, but to let them know that they can't stop their own destruction. This was the most painful way to die.”This was the killer's answer to the mafia boss, and also the ultimate goal of his assassination. He wanted the two reporters to savor death, and for this, he quietly designed a trap.
After two days without any abnormalities, Liu Adou and Assellin forgot about the revenge. They were busy with work every day and did not expect the revenge to come so quickly.
They had just started work that day. They were driving the broadcast van to interview the news. As soon as the car got on the road, Liu Adou received an unknown phone call.
"Hello!" The voice was very low, mixed with a lot of static noise. Liu Adou immediately knew that the other party had used a voice changer. However, he often used voice changers, so Liu Adou could completely restore the other party's voice.
"This is a reporter from the Independent News Channel. Who is this?”Liu Adou remained calm.
"You don't need to know who I am. Listen, I've installed a bomb in the car you're in now. It will explode as long as the car goes below 60 km/h.”The voice was obviously laughing. It was a gloating laugh."Enjoy the last of your lives.”
"…" Liu Adou glanced at the dashboard. They were traveling at 65 km/h, but there was a traffic light ahead."This joke isn't funny."”
"This isn't a joke, but a declaration of death. Farewell, little reporter. I bid farewell to you on behalf of the unlucky people who went to prison because of you!”With that, the other party hung up.
The traffic light had already turned red, but Liu Adou gritted his teeth and stepped on the accelerator. The broadcast van did not slow down, but rushed towards the intersection.
"Liu?" Seeing that they were about to pass the traffic light and still did not slow down, Assellin shouted in horror," Slow down quickly.”
"You can't slow down!" Liu Adou pressed his right foot against the accelerator and took a deep breath. It was time to test his driving skills. The traffic on the left and right had already become an obstacle.
Du du du--
Liu Adou honked his horn and swung the steering wheel with both hands like a top. He passed through the traffic that was moving left and right without any danger. At this time, he heaved a sigh of relief."Call the police. There's a bomb in our car. It will explode if we go below 60 km/h. I want to drive the car to the ring road.”Liu Adou knew that there was less traffic there than in the city.
"Bombs? What happened?" Assellin was shocked.
"It's revenge. Call the police. I'm here. We'll be fine.”Liu Adou was very calm. He had seen many storms and waves. A small bomb would not make his expression change.
However, this was the first time Assellin had sat on a bomb. Fear was written all over her face.
"Take a deep breath. There's nothing to be afraid of.”Liu Adou laughed.
Assellin also smiled bitterly. She held her phone in her hand and started to dial, but the three numbers were still not connected. It was as if the two of them had been abandoned by the world.
