“What exactly are you talking about?!” Gu Nianzhi could feel her heart thumping furiously. However, she did not allow herself to look like she was being taken advantage of. “H3ab7? What the hell is that? I think the amount of junk in your head is more than enough to flood the entire Sahara desert, seriously. Why are you still here wasting everyone’s time?”

Seeing that Gu Nianzhi did not give a hoot about what she said, the middle-aged woman began to doubt herself. Was she really fine?

Impossible... After contemplating for a while, she decided to trust her belief in H3ab7’s capabilities. That drug was indeed deadly, and it had been proven through many clinical trials with Asian ladies. It was impossible that Gu Nianzhi would not be affected.

“Haha... You don’t remember anymore? That’s even better. Go and check if you want, what the aphrodisiac was that you took that time. I think it’d be better if you don’t get married. Your husband wouldn’t even know the color of the hat he’d be wearing...” The middle-aged woman’s words were vile, but no one could tell if she was telling the truth.

Gu Nianzhi was different. She could not remember most of what had happened after the effects of the aphrodisiac had kicked in. She only remembered that she had managed to find Chen Lie right before the effects kicked in, and she was fully confident of Chen Lie’s doctoring skills. Therefore, regarding the effects that the middle-aged woman had mentioned, she was confident that she had not gone through any of them.

Of course, she was even more confident of Huo Shaoheng’s capabilities. As long as he was around, he would save her from any calamities she was in. However, the words from the middle-aged woman made Gu Nianzhi come to a realization. “You’re Yamaguchi Youko!” She couldn’t remember much from that incident. What little she knew were bits and pieces from Chen Lie and Huo Shaoheng.

She also knew that Huo Shaoheng and the Special Forces were after Yamaguchi Youko, and the aphrodisiac her classmate, Feng Yixi, gave her, was from this Japanese woman called Yamaguchi Youko as well! She had also seen Yamaguchi Youko’s picture from Huo Shaoheng before. Even though it wasn’t identical, her features were recognizable. Only Yamaguchi Youko would know such details from that incident.

“You are Yamaguchi Youko! You really didn’t die!” Gu Nianzhi’s grip tightened. She loaded the gun and put it right in the middle of the woman’s forehead. Gu Nianzhi’s strength was so great that the gun left a red mark on her skin. “That’s even better. I won’t have to feel any guilt even if I really do kill you!”

“You really want to kill me?!” The expression of the woman dressed to look middle-aged changed multiple times. She did not expect Gu Nianzhi to be this heartless. Glaring at Gu Nianzhi, she smiled pitifully. “To think someone like you is the top scholar of the law faculty?! You’re knowingly committing a crime. That’s worse! Everyone should know what kind of person you are. You disgust me!”

“Hmm?” Gu Nianzhi raised her eyebrows again, full of thoughts. If this woman is really Yamaguchi Youko, she really knows a lot about me. Where did she get all those details? However, the thoughts merely flashed past for a second before being pushed to the back of her mind. Who cares who she is? With such a heart, even if she is someone I used to know, am I supposed to forgive her? What a joke...

Aside from wanting to harm her on numerous occasions, she had caused Huo Shaoheng to be in danger this time around. She deserved to die 100 times purely because of that.

Gu Nianzhi made up her mind. Placing her finger on the trigger, she said in a low voice, “I really can’t be damned if you feel disgusted or not. Get someone to pray for you at your tomb a year from now!” With that, she pulled the trigger.

Right at that moment, the long sharp blow of a whistle could be heard. The sound came continuously, sharp and high pitched. It hurt their ears. Gu Nianzhi lost focus and looked in the direction where the sound had come from. A huge ship appeared on the horizon. It was cruising towards them. They couldn’t tell if it was the ship, but waves were rocking their little lifeboat rather vigorously.

Gu Nianzhi was caught off guard. After an accidental slip and almost losing her gun, the bullet brushed past the woman’s ear and shot into the distance. The woman was surprised to realize that she was still alive. Grabbing onto the opportunity, she grabbed Gu Nianzhi’s wrist, wanting to snatch the gun out of her hand.

“Damn you!” Gu Nianzhi’s attention returned to the woman as she raised a leg and kicked. The woman fell off the lifeboat just like that. Then, Gu Nianzhi laid face down on the edge of the lifeboat and fired multiple times into the water, causing a huge splash.

“Stop! Stop! What are you doing?!” Gu Yanran’s voice came from behind Gu Nianzhi. She was shocked beyond words, and her usually bright and clear voice was quivering.

Turning around, Gu Nianzhi saw Gu Yanran on a lifeboat, nearing her. Looking in the direction that Gu Yanran came from, she confirmed that the black ship she had seen was Gu Yanran’s, which also meant that it belonged to the Gu’s...

She felt strange in her heart but did not let it affect her for long. With a dark expression, she saw a few swimmers jump into the water and pull the woman onto their lifeboat.

“You’re Gu Nianzhi?! Why are you in Barbados?!” Gu Yanran finally confirmed the tall lady’s identity. Looking at her, she was shocked to see a gun in her hand. “Why on earth are you holding onto a gun?! And forcing people to their deaths?! Nianzhi, how can you ignore the law like that?!”

Gu Nianzhi was still staring at the woman who was dressed to look middle-aged. She did not even look at Gu Yanran and said calmly, “Miss Gu, please don’t discuss the law with me. We’re on the open seas right now. May I know which country’s laws you are abiding?”

The woman closed her eyes. She was wrapped in a thin towel and hid away in a corner of Gu Yanran’s lifeboat. She was expressionless and silent. Gu Nianzhi looked at her again before shifting her attention to Gu Yanran. “You know each other?”

Before Gu Yanran could reply, the woman laughed weirdly. “Of course she knows me. She was even my guarantor to let me leave the country hahahhahaa... All idiots!”

“Shut up!” Hearing such words from her, Gu Yanran couldn’t take it, either. “You’d better be grateful that I saved your life!”

Gu Nianzhi looked at Gu Yanran and the woman. Pursing her lips, she stuffed the gun back into her diving suit before turning around to start the lifeboat’s engine.

“Hey! Gu... Nianzhi, what are you doing?” Gu Yanran tried to stop her. “Are you going to save Mr. Huo just by using this little lifeboat? It’s no use!”

Gu Nianzhi paused. The image of how the lifeboat that was the same model as hers got electrocuted flashed in her mind. However, she continued to lower her head and focused on starting the engine of her lifeboat. She couldn’t bring herself to not save him just because she knew it was dangerous.

A short while later, the engine started. Gu Nianzhi navigated the lifeboat in the direction of the Blue Hole without looking back.

Panicking, Gu Yanran shouted after her, “Come back! You come back! Don’t die! We can think of another solution!” However, the noise from the engine was too loud, and there was no way Gu Nianzhi would be able to hear her.

“Why is that child so bloody stubborn?!” Gu Yanran sighed and saw the woman hiding in a corner of her lifeboat. “Why did you return? Where are your subordinates?” she asked the woman, confused.

“Gu Nianzhi killed them. This young lady is really something. She kills without a thought.” The woman spat and looked at Gu Yanran from the corners of her eyes. “Since I’m already on your boat, be nice and take me back.”

“I’m not obliged to save you.” Gu Yanran furrowed her brows and said impatiently, “I’ve told you not to leave on your own before, but you refused to listen. Look, now. You have no one with you. How are you supposed to report to the people on your end after you get back?”

The woman laughed. “I don’t need you to worry about how I’ll report after I get back. I think you’d better...” She shifted her gaze and looked at Gu Nianzhi nearing the waters of the Blue Hole, the area with the violet-colored electric arcs in the waters.

Gu Yanran’s gaze followed. “Sigh, what a pretty girl. Why must she be so stubborn?” Gu Yanran couldn’t bear to look anymore. “Let’s go back.” She ordered her lifeboat to return to her ship. The woman, however, continued to watch the lifeboat that Gu Nianzhi was on.

...

Gu Nianzhi looked at the water covered with violet electric arcs. Her eyes showed fear. She was afraid, indeed. To date, her scariest memory was the beginning of everything she could remember, the accident when she was 12. After that, when Huo Shaoheng entered her life, she was protected safely and extremely well. The past six or seven years had been the happiest in her life...

However, this person who had given her a second chance at life was in danger right now, so even if she was terrified, she would never allow herself to be talked out of going to the “dead sea.” Even if she had to die, she wanted to die with Huo Shaoheng.

Gu Nianzhi had found a new sense of determination. She looked at the water covered with violet electric arcs and forced herself to think of a solution in ten minutes. According to her calculations, Huo Shaoheng and Zhao Liangze’s oxygen supply would last only for a maximum of three hours. It had already been two and a half hours. She needed to have a substantial amount of time out of the remaining 30 minutes for last minute emergencies. Therefore, technically, she was only left with less than ten minutes.

Could she think of a solution within ten minutes?! If she had had a super calculator or different tools with her, she’d have a better chance to settle this huge area of violet electric arcs. However, she didn’t have anything with her. She only had a mobile phone, and it was used for gaming. It was impossible to do extensive calculations with it.

Then, she saw a Swiss Army knife in her diving suit. Could this be a tool for soldiers? What a joke... Gu Nianzhi took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and told herself to calm down, and that she’d definitely find a way out. As long as this had been set up by a person, she’d find a way to bypass it!

She wasn’t the same girl anymore who was trapped in the car, helpless as she looked at the raging fires in front of her. She would find a way. She would definitely find a way!

Gu Nianzhi’s eyes snapped open as the first question popped into her head: since the water was able to produce violet electrical arcs, what kind of starter would it require to produce electrical arcs of such magnitude?!
