Chapter 1301: 1301
Zhang Heng stared into Jiajia’s eyes for a while, but he didn’t see any signs of guilt.
However, Zhang Heng didn’t let his guard down. He didn’t forget that this girl who looked like she wasn’t even 20 years old and still in her rebellious phase was probably more than 1,000 years old.
Succubi originated from Greek mythology and had been widely spread since the Middle Ages. There were traces of them in the Sumerian civilization as well. In order to ensure their attractiveness to men, no matter how old they were, they always looked young and beautiful.
Furthermore, after such a long period of time, their lies had already reached an unknown level. If measured by the skills in the game, they were at least LVL 4, and they were specifically designed to deal with men, therefore, even with Zhang Heng’s observational skills, he could not tell whether the succubus was lying or not.
However, he could tell that the black business car downstairs and the foreigners coming out of it were all hostile.
Zhang Heng said to Jia jia, “I’ll give you two choices. Either you get killed by me right now, or you come downstairs with me and cooperate with me to prove your innocence.”
“Under these circumstances, as long as you’re Not a fool, you’ll choose the second option, right?”Miss Succubus asked, “But how do you want me to prove my innocence? Do you want me to search my body to see if I’m wearing any hidden communication equipment?”She didn’t seem to be resisting this kind of behavior, as she spoke, she spread her legs slightly apart.
Zhang Heng ignored what she said. According to the original plan, he checked her body to confirm that other than a phone, there was indeed no communication equipment. However, Zhang Heng wasn’t sure if the succubus had any other special means of communication.

He looked out the window and saw that three foreigners had already entered the hotel lobby. There was also one foreigner left in the car. So, he said to Jia Jia, who was lying on the bed, “Get up.”
This time, Miss Succubus did not play any tricks. She stood up obediently from the bed and put on her jacket again. She tidied up her hair and asked curiously, “Are you in some kind of trouble?”
“Have you forgotten? I went to your place the last time I sent you the appraised prop. Instead of staying at home, you ran out to open a hotel. No matter how you look at it, there must be something wrong,”Jia Jia said. “Are you worried that your enemies will come knocking on your door?”
Zhang Heng didn’t answer her question. He only said, “They should be coming up soon. Let’s go out first.”
The two of them left the room and went to the corridor outside. Miss Succubus glanced at the elevator that was going up and turned to walk toward the safe passage. However, she did not expect to be stopped by Zhang Heng as soon as she took a step forward.
Then, Zhang Heng took out a wire and inserted it into the gap of the opposite door. In less than five seconds, he opened the door of the guest room opposite.
Zhang Heng took a look and saw that the quilt and slippers were neatly arranged inside. It was obvious that no one was living there, so he dragged Jiajia in and closed the door.
At this time, the elevator arrived at the same floor. Two foreigners came down from the elevator. They were not fast, and it took them quite a while to reach the elevator. They stopped in front of the room Zhang Heng had opened earlier.
Through the peephole, Zhang Heng saw the two foreigners talking. One of them was holding a phone, and the other was carrying a briefcase. They looked like white-collar workers on a business trip, the man carrying the briefcase raised his head to look in the direction of the surveillance camera. Then, his female companion nodded at him and made an OK gesture.

Then, the male foreigner with the briefcase pulled open the briefcase and took out two pairs of gloves. He and his companion carefully put them on.
At that moment, Zhang Heng felt a gentle breeze beside his ear. The succubus had unknowingly approached him. She leaned on his shoulder and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “What do they want? It’s the middle of the summer, why are they wearing gloves?”
“To avoid leaving fingerprints behind, they’re a bunch of ruthless people. It looks like they’re ready to commit murder.”Zhang Heng paused before turning to Jia Jia. “It’s your turn.”
“What am I supposed to do?”
“Nothing. Just Act Like You’re going out. Since you said you don’t know them, they won’t make things difficult for you if you go out.”
Jia Jia quickly figured out what Zhang Heng was up to. “You want to see their first reaction when they see me to determine whether they’re my accomplices or not?”
Zhang Heng didn’t deny it.
“Heh, you’re really careful.”Miss Succubus raised her eyebrows. “Fine, then I’ll do as you say to prove my innocence.”
After she said that, she opened the door and walked out.
It had to be said that Miss Succubus’acting skills were really outstanding. Before she left, she deliberately messed up her clothes and hair. Her face had a faint blush. One look and one could tell that she had just worked hard.
The two foreigners were also startled when they heard the sound of the doorknob turning in the guest room behind them. They hurriedly turned around, but the following scene was not quite what Jiajia had imagined, the two didn’t let out a sigh of relief when they saw her. On the contrary, the male foreigner’s pupils constricted, and he reached his right hand into his briefcase again.
Jiajia felt a sense of foreboding. When she recalled Zhang Heng’s earlier deduction, she didn’t expect the group to be so fierce that they wouldn’t even spare a passerby like her, at this moment, she couldn’t care less about hiding her strength anymore.
As a succubus, she wasn’t good at fighting, but as an ancient species that had existed for thousands of years, she wasn’t completely helpless. Jiajia stared into the male foreigner’s eyes, her eyes glowed with a devilish red light.
However, the male foreigner reacted quickly. He closed his eyes and passed the gun in his hand to his female companion. At the same time, he reached into his briefcase again. This time, he took out a pair of sunglasses, he only opened his eyes again after putting on the sunglasses.
On the other side, the female companion had already raised the pistol in her hand and aimed at Jiajia’s temple. Looking at her aiming posture, it was obvious that she was not a newbie. She was actually more skilled than the male foreigner.
Miss Succubus was caught off guard by the two people’s actions. Her charm only worked on men and could not stop the female foreigner from pulling the trigger, moreover, even if she wanted to control the male foreigner to attack her companion, she could not do so.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, a knife flew out from the room behind her and hit the gun. The muzzle of the gun was slightly deflected, and the bullet grazed Jia Jia’s body and hit the wall.

The Girl Named Rino
Oh. Hello. I didn't see you come in. No, don't worry. I don't need to hear your name. I already know what it is. I also knew that you'd come up at around this time. But, at the same time, I also didn't know. It's very hard to put into words - but that's what happens when you become the Chaos God. Your psyche gets messed up, big time. That's even more so for me, who was already warped enough to confuse reality with imagination - and, even make the rest of the universe believe that it was so. But, enough about me. Let's talk about you. You seem to come from a very far away land. It's faint, but your presence is there - in a relatively primitive planet. No wonder, no one wanted to stay in, or conquer your region of the universe - there's nothing worth controlling there. Your existence, much like your entire solar system, also seems to be pretty insignificant. Tell me, is your race capable of destroying your own world? Oh, you're already well along the way? Global Warming? Pollution? Overpopulation? Nuclear weapons? Wow... it's been many millenia since I'd last heard of such ancient concepts from someone who is actually living through it. Still, good job getting that far. That means that your world is now, at least, worth considering as a possible place to install a World System. If I find the time, I'll try surveying it. You can just thank me, later. Oh wait! What kind of person am I, not even offering my guest any hospitality. I'm ashamed. Please, take a seat. What would you like? I have everything the multiverse has to offer, whatever it is you want - I can get. Ah! After we talk, would you mind, if I asked you to do me a tiny favor? There's this girl, I want to keep tabs on. She's in one of the Worlds that I preside over, it's called Aiarthe. But, for some reason, I can't see her - not directly, at least. All I need you to do, is check up on her from time to time. Whether you do it as a pure spectator or through someone else's eyes, is entirely up to you. Really!? You would!? Wow! Thanks! You really did me, a huge solid there! For agreeing so quickly, how about I get started on surveying that planet of yours, right now!? You can help yourself, to anything in the fridge! Well, see ya!
