I Received Messages From Future Self!-Chapter 191 - Successive Visitors
Chapter 191: Chapter 191 Successive Visitors
Fang Xiaocao squatted next to the stairs, stealthily peering out from behind the balustrade, watching the floor below.
She saw a figure shuffling up from the direction of the basement, cursing under breath with a pronounced limp.
From the build, it was a man.
A rather thin and frail one at that!
Fang Xiaocao silently recalled the memories of the day.
Comparing the build of this man against Han Xue’s group one by one.
Quickly!
Fang Xiaocao identified her target.
It was one of the thin, weak-looking middle-aged men.
This middle-aged man had left an impression on Fang Xiaocao.
This chapter is updated by freēwēbnovel.com.
Because he had the face of a refined scoundrel.
Wearing gold-rimmed glasses, yet his eyes were ferocious, exuding an air of malevolence.
By the looks of it, this guy must have injured his leg.
Before Shi Guang and the others stormed into the villa, he was hidden by Han Xue’s group in the basement.
Thinking of this, Fang Xiaocao sneered to herself.
Perfect, plan to capture this guy and interrogate him properly about Han Xue’s whereabouts and the details of this power.
A force capable of arm-wrestling with the Blacklist, regardless of the outcome, having not been wiped out by now, had already revealed some information.
If given the chance, Fang Xiaocao felt, it might be worth playing the game of killing someone with a borrowed knife.
Leveraging the strength of this power to attract a greater fire output from the Blacklist.
She might even incite a full-blown war between the two powers!
With that thought, Fang Xiaocao solidified her plan.
The refined scoundrel reached the sofa in the living room and sat down, continuously massaging his injured leg.
Apparently, the injury was not minor.
It significantly affected his normal movements.
The short walk from the basement to the living room seemed to have burdened him considerably.
After clearly assessing the refined scoundrel’s physical condition, Fang Xiaocao was not worried about him escaping anymore.
She quietly retreated back to her bedroom.
Fang Xiaocao took out her phone, opened Tom’s WeChat profile picture, and sent Tom a message: “Tom, how’s it going?”
[Tom: Princess Your Highness, my side is all done, on my way to join you!]
Soon, Tom replied to the message.
Seeing Tom’s reply and knowing that he hadn’t been taken away by the police, Fang Xiaocao breathed a sigh of relief.
“Be careful when you come, there’s a guy on the first floor of Villa No. 5, one of those who took control of the attic this morning and confronted the police. He’s injured his leg and has been hiding in the basement without leaving.”
Fang Xiaocao quickly composed what had happened on her end into a message and sent it to Tom.
[Tom: Princess Your Highness, are you alright?]
[Tom: Princess Your Highness, stay hidden, I will be there soon!]
Tom became anxious upon seeing Fang Xiaocao’s message.
With Tom’s sharp eyes, it was not hard to see.
Han Xue’s people were all desperados.
Not one of them easy to handle.
Tom was worried for Fang Xiaocao’s safety.
“Don’t worry, I won’t be rash.”
Understanding what Tom was thinking, Fang Xiaocao sent a reassuring message to Tom.
[Tom: I’m on my way!]
Still, Tom sent back a message that he was on his way.
“Don’t rush, I’ll wait for you to come!”
“When you get to the door, be careful not to startle him.”
“I’m planning to capture him alive and extract information about Han Xue and the others from him.”
Fang Xiaocao sent her plan to Tom.
[Tom: Got it!]
Tom replied once again.
“Tap, tap, tap…”
Just as Yue Yu thought to send another message to Tom, sudden footsteps came from the stairs.
Hearing the footsteps, Fang Xiaocao’s heart skipped a beat.
It was the refined scoundrel coming upstairs!
Hurriedly stashing her phone away, Fang Xiaocao grabbed her belongings in one swoop, hid them under the bed, and crawled in underneath herself.
Since she intended to capture the refined scoundrel alive, Fang Xiaocao had no plans to face off against the scoundrel alone.
It’s easy to kill, but hard to capture!
Engaging in a life-or-death struggle with the refined scoundrel wasn’t something Fang Xiaocao feared, she was in the dark, and the scoundrel was in the light.
For an ambush, Fang Xiaocao had many methods to kill this refined scoundrel, but to subdue him, she was not confident.
Fang Xiaocao lay under the bed, ears perked up, listening to the refined scoundrel’s movements outside the room.
The refined scoundrel, dragging an injured leg, climbed the stairs very slowly.
After about ten minutes, he finally reached the floor where Fang Xiaocao’s hiding room was located, following the stairs.
“Huff, huff…”
Fang Xiaocao could even hear the refined scoundrel’s heavy breathing.
“Tap, tap, tap…”
The footsteps of the refined scoundrel picked up again.
He would soon arrive at the door of the room where Fang Xiaocao was hiding.
Fang Xiaocao subconsciously tightened her grip on the black Dagger in her hand, holding her breath.
Her eyes stared through the gap of the bedsheet, fixedly watching the room’s door.
However, the refined scoundrel stood at the door for a moment before turning and leaving, heading towards the inner guest rooms along the corridor.
“Phew…”
Hearing the receding footsteps of the refined scoundrel, Fang Xiaocao let out a sigh of relief.
Thinking about sharing a room with this refined scoundrel, Fang Xiaocao still felt a bit frightened.
That refined scoundrel looked terrifying.
Just then, a loud “bang” came from the main door on the first floor.
It startled Fang Xiaocao.
It also startled the refined scoundrel.
“Damn it, what’s the situation?”
“Is it someone coming for me?”
Fang Xiaocao heard the refined scoundrel’s cursing.
As well as the sound of a large door being pushed open.
And the sound of leather shoes and high heels striking the floorboards.
“Could it really be Han Xue and the others?”
Listening to the footsteps, Fang Xiaocao frowned.
Fang Xiaocao immediately took out her phone and tapped on Tom’s profile, “Tom, there’s been a change, more people have arrived at the villa. Listening to the footsteps, there are men and women, it might be Han Xue and her group, coming for this wounded one.”
“You need to be careful when you come.”
“They might have lookouts, don’t let them spot you.”
[Tom: Received!]
[Tom: Your Highness, be careful yourself, do not expose your position. Han Xue’s group are desperate criminals, you have to be very cautious.]
“Don’t worry, I know!”
Seeing Tom’s message, Fang Xiaocao felt a warmth in her heart and sent a message back.
“Damn it, the thing that I’ve come so many times and never found, has actually been taken by that woman’s people.”
At that moment, a loud curse came from the living room on the first floor.
Hearing the curse from downstairs, Fang Xiaocao was taken aback.
“It’s not Han Xue and her group?”
Fang Xiaocao muttered to herself.
Suddenly, something clicked in Fang Xiaocao’s mind.
She had a hunch about who the visitors were!
It was Taotie, the one mentioned by Hot Noodles.
The one in villa number 5, who committed murder and cooked corpses.
At that thought, Fang Xiaocao shivered.
Taotie was an exceptionally vicious person!
Facing such a murderer, she had no confidence.
Fang Xiaocao took out her phone and sent a message to Tom.
“Tom, it isn’t Han Xue and her group, it should be Taotie from the Blacklist!”
“Boss, what are we doing here?”
The voice of a woman came from downstairs.
