Chapter 24 The Devil and the Girl (1)

Thinking of this, Fang Ze tapped the table lightly with the knuckle of his right index finger.

Instantly, three-dimensional images of many people popped up in front of him.

In addition to the previous candidates, there were four more names on this list.

They were all hawkers or pedestrians that Fang Ze had met when he was shopping today.

Fang Ze took advantage of the fact that Bai Ling wasn’t paying attention. He pretended to unintentionally and secretly make physical contact with them. They would become his “purchasing agent” candidates. However, to be honest, Fang Ze did not dare to use them.

First, it was because of the plan this time. After all, there would be an exchange of “material” items. Without knowing the personalities and backgrounds of these people beforehand, it was too difficult to get them to buy things for him just by scaring them and giving them empty promises. Furthermore, it was too easy for them to leak the news.

Second, to be honest, Fang Ze was very suspicious of their true identities.

This was from his judgment of the Security Bureau’s perfect “protection” of Fang Ze today.

Normally, it would be difficult for ordinary people to come into contact with Fang Ze.

Therefore, it was very likely that these people were planted by the Security Bureau or the Investigation Department…

In that case, once Fang Ze chose them, it would be equivalent to confessing his crimes.

Meanwhile, if he chose someone else instead of them…

With that in mind, Fang Ze scrolled back down the list and pondered…

Putting aside the fact that those people were also too difficult to deal with.

Even if Fang Ze really performed extremely well and fooled them, Fang Ze was not sure if they could buy the Awakening materials in a short period of time.

As he thought, Fang Ze’s hand slowly stopped on a three-dimensional image.

That three-dimensional image was of the girl he had seen today and dreamed of for the past two days.

Fang Ze wasn’t surprised to see her image. After all, his original self had bullied her before. He would have had physical contact with her.

This was why when Fang Ze saw her today, he felt that he could summon her.

However… Was she a suitable candidate?

Looking at the girl’s three-dimensional image, Fang Ze was lost in thought…

She was delicate and easy to “control”.

He knew her experience and “weakness”. Thus, he could easily cut in.

Furthermore, she lived in Qingshan City. He had investigated and confirmed that he could buy what he needed there.

In that case, it did seem like a good idea.

The only question was, would the Security Bureau have her under surveillance?

After careful consideration, Fang Ze made a decision.

Whatever. He had to try.

Even if there were people around her to keep her under surveillance, preventing her from buying things for him, at least he could obtain some information about how the Security Bureau was conducting surveillance. It was not all for naught.

Furthermore, if the value of this surveillance information was very high, he would still have good “gains”.

Of course, in order to avoid exposing his identity and more reasonable ways to get her to help with buying the items, he had to disguise himself.

As he thought about it, Fang Ze came up with an idea.

Perhaps this would make sense…

Furthermore, this could help the girl start a new life.

This was not exactly mistreating her.

Thinking of this, he stopped hesitating and began to set up the Late-Night Investigation Room in front of him.

With his previous experience in decorating rooms, Fang Ze was now even better at decorating the room.

Therefore, he waved his hand, and a mountain range burning with flames appeared from the ground and stretched into the distance, blocking the wall and the steel door.

Then, with a light step, a dark abyss instantly appeared under his feet.

His gaze went to the chair.

The chair turned into a black throne and rose from the ground, slowly carrying him higher. In the fog, his figure began to gradually grow taller, and a pair of pitch-black horns like those of a goat appeared on his head.

After everything was adjusted, Fang Ze hid the battered lamp in the abyss and tapped the image of the girl.

A moment later, a thin figure slowly appeared on the pitch-black ground burning with flames.

Feeling the hard ground under her and the heat through her skin, the girl woke up from her sleep in a daze. After seeing her surroundings clearly, her body trembled and she curled up reflexively. Then, she carefully sized up the scene in front of her.

Wasn’t she sleeping at home?

Where was this place?

Why were there flames everywhere, and a bottomless abyss, and another…

She saw the figure sitting on the black throne with two horns on his head. It was a figure that caused people to feel intimidated with just one look. Miao Miao hurriedly lowered her head and knelt on the ground, trembling and unable to speak…

Sensing the girl’s intense uneasiness, Fang Ze, who was sitting high on the black throne, nodded silently. It had gone better than he had imagined…

It seemed the plan could proceed.

At the thought of this, he spoke slowly.

His voice was hoarse, like two metal plates grinding against each other. It reeked of sulfur. “Look up…”

Hearing Fang Ze’s words, the girl trembled even more.

However, she did not dare to resist. She could only stiffly raise her pitiful face bit by bit.

During the day, Fang Ze couldn’t look at her closely.

Now that he was looking at her seriously, Fang Ze realized that she was really thin…

She was more than 1.6 meters tall, but she weighed less than 40 kilograms. It was obvious from her face that she was malnourished.

However, perhaps because she was born beautiful, even though her life was so difficult, her skin was still delicate and fair.

Furthermore, she had teary, watery eyes.

Just one look at her would make one feel pity for her and worry about the fate of the girl in front of them.
