Vivian sat down and looked at Lin Neng.

She felt that the man next to her seemed familiar.

She thought about it carefully. She seemed to have seen him outside the Hilton Manor the night before.

Any normal man would react towards her with her charming ability.

So, Vivian was a little suspicious of Lin Neng the day before.

Unless Lin Neng was not a man.

Lin Neng turned his head away, not wanting to look Vivian in the eye.

Lin Neng would have been delighted to have such a beautiful woman sitting next to him if it was not long ago.

But he was not happy at all at the moment, and he did not want to have any interaction with Vivian.

He was even a little nervous.

Lin Neng was just an ordinary person without any abilities before he could transform.

Vivian was sitting next to him. He might not be able to fight against her if she suddenly attacked.

“What a dangerous woman.”

Lin Neng sighed. He felt a little uneasy sitting here.

Any strong-built man who had practiced fighting for two years could push Lin Neng to the ground and beat him up, let alone a professional assassin like Vivian.

“System, system!”

Lin Neng began to call the system in his mind.

“I can only have combat ability after transforming. Can my original body gain some abilities?”

The system’s mechanical voice rang in Lin Neng’s ears. “I’m sorry, the system can only upgrade the transformed body. It does not support directly upgrading the host.”

Lin Neng was speechless.

“So I’ll be weak all my life?”

“Not totally. When the transformation body evolves into an S-class evolution, the ability to evolve will synchronize with the host’s body.”

“To put it simply, if the host spends a huge amount of money to make any transformation body undergo an S-class evolution, then not only will the body evolve, but the host will also undergo an S-class evolution feedback.”

Lin Neng nodded.

There was no way to directly evolve himself.

He would be able to receive the corresponding feedback when he undergoes the advanced evolution in the future.

Thinking of that, Lin Neng’s desire to earn money became stronger.

Earn money!

Only then would he become stronger!

Only then would he be able to live better and enjoy life better!

Vivian became even more curious about Lin Neng, seeing him turning his head away.

That man… seemed to be different.

Vivian was such a quick-witted person. She completely forgot that she was still in the shadow of the mysterious killer. Her curiosity was all focused on Lin Neng.

“The sun is too bright. I’ll close the window.”

Vivian muttered softly.

That was an excuse she made on purpose. Of course, it was not really because the sun was too bright.

Vivian stuck half of her body out, almost clinging to Lin Neng’s body.

Lin Neng’s expression suddenly turned strange.

He could feel two balls of softness clinging to his body.

Lin Neng could still imagine the erotic scene even with his eyes closed.

“What is this woman doing?”

Lin Neng had not done any endurance training. How could a normal man resist such temptation?

His body also made some physiological reactions while some images appeared in his mind.

It was not something he could control, but a part of his body bulged involuntarily.

Vivian also noticed the physiological reaction.

She shook her head gently.

Vivian’s body returned to her seat after closing the curtains, and her interest in Lin Neng suddenly disappeared.

It seemed that he was just an ordinary man who could not resist her temptation.

Lin Neng’s physiological reaction dispelled Vivian’s doubts about her.

The two of them sat side by side. They finally reached the destination, the small town, after a two-and-a-half-hour ride.

Lin Neng and Vivian no longer had anything to do with each other after getting off the car, nor did they pay attention to each other’s journey. The two of them separated and disappeared into the crowd.

At the same time, the New York police were investigating the murder at the Hilton Estate the day before.

The famous tycoon. Keynes was pierced on his throat by a mysterious sharp weapon in a room at the Hilton Hotel. He died from a laceration of the bronchus and arteries.

All the evidence pointed to Vivian as the murderer.

After all, she was the only one there. She and Keynes went upstairs to the room together. Then, Keynes died in less than half an hour.

Vivian was Lin Neng’s scapegoat to a certain extent.

However, Vivian was a professional assassin. She was very skilled in erasing her tracks and escaping detection.

There was no such person as Vivian in the household registration information held by the police.

Moreover, the police could only see that Vivian fled into a slum after the murder and then disappeared when they looked at the surveillance footage.

The most crucial means of escape was still her disguise.

Vivian had changed her clothes, hair, and makeup. She looked different from the Lolita girl the day before.

That undoubtedly increased the difficulty of the police investigation.

It was likely that this would be a cold case that could never be solved.

After all, the heir of the family was likely to be involved in some family conflicts. The murderer was most likely a professional assassin. Even the police would have a hard time tracking down such a professional assassin.

After some time, the head of the New York Police Department suppressed the case internally.

Someone might have instructed her to do so.

The case ended up as an unsolved crime.
