Chapter 597 Talk
The two talked under the starry sky until late at night, and their feelings became deeper invisibly. However, they did not notice that a pair of sinister eyes in the shadows in the distance were staring at them. It was the boss who was taught a lesson by Xu Mo last night. He did not give up the idea of revenge and quietly followed them to Jeju Island.
However, Eunjeong and Heo Mo were not affected by the impending crisis. They continued to enjoy the happiness and peace brought by the journey, completely unaware that danger was approaching step by step.
In the following days, Eunjung and Heo Mo spent a carefree time in Jeju Island. They watched the sunrise on Sunrise Peak and felt the magnificence of nature; relived their childhood and laughed at the Teddy Bear Museum; hiked in Hallasan National Park and faced challenges together. Passersby couldn't help but make envious comments when they saw their sweet interactions.
"Look at that couple, the man is handsome and the woman is pretty, they are a perfect match!" "They look so well-matched, it must be true love." "Oh, I wish I had a boyfriend like this, who could protect me and play with me."
However, just as they were immersed in this rare tranquility and beauty, the crisis quietly arrived. The grudge-bearing boss hired a group of local evil forces and planned to attack them while they were on vacation at the beach.
On a quiet afternoon, when Eun-jeong and Heo-mo were sunbathing at the beach, a group of men in black suddenly appeared and surrounded them. The tourists around them were terrified and whispered.
"What's going on? What are these people doing?" "They seem to be looking for that couple. Could it be that they are enemies seeking revenge?"
Eun Jung held Xu Mo's hand tightly. She could feel the firm strength coming from Xu Mo's palm. Xu Mo stood up, looked sharply at the crowd surrounding them, and said calmly: "If you know what's good for you, you should leave immediately. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."
Just as the men in black were about to attack, a woman in tight black clothes rushed out of the crowd like lightning and swiftly stood in front of Eunjeong and Heo Mo. She held a delicate dagger and had sharp eyes, like a cheetah ready to pounce on its prey at any time.
"Back off!" The mysterious woman's voice was cold, but it was intimidating. She brandished her dagger and fought with the black-clad people. Her swordsmanship was superb and her moves were deadly. In an instant, she knocked several black-clad people to the ground.
Seeing this, Xu Mo was not to be outdone and quickly joined the battle. Although he did not carry any weapons, he successfully resisted the attacks of the remaining men in black with his solid fighting skills and flexible physical fitness, and gradually gained the upper hand with the help of the mysterious woman.
Eun Jung was stunned watching from the side. She had never thought that the usually gentle Xu Mo could have such outstanding skills. At the same time, she was also surprised by the appearance of this mysterious female warrior. Who is she? Why did she help at the critical moment?
After a fierce duel, the men in black were all defeated and fled in panic. The mysterious woman turned to face Eun Jung and Heo Mo, took off her mask, revealing a beautiful and resolute face.
"I'm Xia Lan, and I've been entrusted by someone to protect your safety." Xia Lan's words were simple and clear, and her eyes revealed firm trust.
Eun Jung and Xu Mo looked at each other and saw the shock and gratitude in each other's eyes. Xu Mo stepped forward and thanked Xia Lan solemnly: "Thank you Miss Xia for your help and saving my life. I will never forget it."
Xia Lan smiled slightly and waved her hand to indicate that it was not necessary to be polite: "This is what I should do. Right now, it is better for you to leave here as soon as possible to avoid any more accidents."
So, Eun-jeong and Heo-mo left the beach under Xia Lan's escort and returned to their accommodation. That night, the three of them sat under the lights and talked about the matter in detail. Eun-jeong learned that Xia Lan was entrusted by an unnamed person to come and protect them from the big boss.
"Brother Xu Mo, who do you think this person could be?" Eun Jung asked puzzledly, with curiosity glittering in her eyes.
Xu Mo pondered for a moment and shook his head: "It is still unknown at the moment, but no matter what, we should be grateful to this friend behind the scenes. At the same time, we must also be alert to the boss's next move."
Xia Lan nodded in agreement and added, "That's right, your enemies will not give up easily, and I will continue to stay here until I can ensure your safety."
With Xia Lan's help, although Eun Jung and Heo Mo's days in Jeju Island were occasionally turbulent, they also felt more secure.
Just when the three thought everything was about to return to normal, an unexpected person appeared in their sight—the hotel lobby manager ran to them nervously, holding an anonymous letter tightly in his hand. He handed the letter to Xu Mo, and his trembling voice was filled with obvious uneasiness: "Sir, someone specifically asked me to pass this letter to you."
Xu Mo took the letter, opened it and quickly read it, his face instantly became serious. The letter clearly stated that the big boss not only did not give up the revenge plan, but also set a more sophisticated trap, intending to kill them in one fell swoop. Not only that, he also used his power to set up many obstacles, making it difficult for them to move on Jeju Island.
Seeing this, Eunjeong asked worriedly, "Brother Xu Mo, what should we do? Are we going to be in trouble again?"
Xu Mo looked at Eun Jung firmly and comforted her, "Eun Jung, don't worry. Now that we know the other party's conspiracy, we have a plan to deal with it. The most important thing now is to stay calm and discuss countermeasures with Miss Xia Lan."
Xia Lan took the letter, read it carefully, and smiled coldly: "It seems that this game is becoming more and more interesting. Don't worry, since I have accepted the commission, I will not let you get hurt. Starting tomorrow, I will investigate the details of this trap. Let's wait and see what happens."
Eun Jung was still a little uneasy when she heard this, but she knew Xu Mo and Xia Lan's abilities very well, so she calmed down and responded, "Okay, we will follow Sister Xia Lan's plan. As long as we unite, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome."
The next day, under Xia Lan's guidance, Eun-jeong and Heo-mo continued to enjoy their leisurely vacation in Jeju Island, but they were always alert to the changes around them. In the dark, a battle of wits about life and death was quietly unfolding.
Just as they seemed to be enjoying life in Jeju Island peacefully, one evening, when Eun-jeong was walking alone on the beach, a dark shadow approached her silently. Before Eun-jeong could react, she saw a flash of cold light and a sharp dagger pointed directly at her chest.
"Be careful!" Xu Mo's voice sounded behind him. He rushed over quickly and blocked Eun Jung with his body. The blade pierced his shoulder deeply, and the blood instantly dyed his clothes red. Eun Jung was terrified and stared at the scene in front of her with wide eyes.
"Brother Xu Mo!" Eun Jung screamed, tears welling up in her eyes. She immediately took out her cell phone and called the emergency number, while holding Xu Mo's hand tightly, trying to give him strength.
The mysterious killer wanted to attack again after missing the first strike, but was stopped by Xia Lan who arrived later. Xia Lan was agile and subdued the killer in a few rounds and handed him over to the local police.
In the hospital, Eun Jung stayed by Xu Mo's bed, watching the doctor sew up his wounds, feeling extremely distressed. She grabbed Xu Mo's hand and whispered, "Xu Mo, why are you trying so hard?"
Xu Mo smiled reluctantly, held Eun Jung's hand tightly and responded: "Eun Jung, you are my friend and an important person in my life. I can't let you get hurt."
Eun Jung's tears fell on the back of Xu Mo's hand. She said firmly, "Don't take risks like this again. Promise me, Xu Mo."
Xu Mo nodded gently, and the determination in his eyes told Eun Jung that he would do his best to protect her safety. At this moment, Xia Lan, who was outside the ward, received a call with a serious expression, as if a new crisis was waiting for them.
"Eunjeong, we can't just sit there and wait for death." Xia Lan walked into the ward with a serious look on her face. "I just got the news that the boss has joined forces with some dark forces and plans to launch a larger-scale attack on Jeju Island."
Eun Jung looked at Xu Mo, who was in great pain but still resolute, and Xia Lan, who was full of determination. She knew that this battle had just begun. She wiped away her tears and said to Xu Mo and Xia Lan with a firm look: "Then we will fight side by side and never give them any chance again!"
"Okay!" Xu Mo endured the pain and forced a smile, as if the pain of the wound was not worth mentioning.
As night fell, the moonlight shone through the window onto the three of them. Eun Jung looked at Xu Mo and Xia Lan, and a strong belief rose in her heart.
Just as Eun-jung and Heo-mo were encouraging each other in the ward and facing the unknown crisis together, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open, and a man in a white coat walked in, claiming to be a doctor sent by the hospital to change the dressing for Heo-mo. Although Eun-jung had doubts in her heart, she did not doubt too much in the current emergency situation, but just stood aside nervously, watching the man's actions.
However, when the man approached Xu Mo, he was holding a syringe filled with an unknown liquid. Seeing this, Eun Jung became alert and rushed forward to try to stop the man. The man saw that his plan was exposed and immediately showed his vicious side and wrestled with Eun Jung.
At this moment, Xia Lan received a notification from the hospital security and rushed over. Seeing the scene in front of her, she immediately joined the battle and subdued the killer pretending to be a doctor with her superb skills. Under Xia Lan's questioning, the fake doctor finally confessed that he was instructed by the big boss to weaken Xu Mo's fighting power by poisoning him so that they could implement the next plan.
"What exactly do you want to do?" Eun Jung asked angrily, with anger burning in her eyes.
The fake doctor trembled, but could only confess the truth: "The boss has arranged more killers to lurk on the island. Their target is not only Xu Mo, but also you, Miss Eun Jung. They not only want revenge, but also completely destroy your life."
Hearing this, Eunjeong and Heo Mo looked at each other. They both understood that this time the opponent was more cunning and vicious than they had imagined. However, they were not afraid because of this, but instead strengthened their determination to fight to the end.
"Xia Lan, we must take action as soon as possible to find these killers and expose all the conspiracies of the boss." Xu Mo said gritting his teeth.
Xia Lan nodded and agreed: "I will contact my informant on the island and try to grasp their movements as soon as possible. Eunjeong, you must also strengthen your precautions and try not to act alone during this period."
Eunjung clenched her fists, her eyes gleaming with determination: "We will face this together. No matter how many difficulties lie ahead, as long as you are with me, I will be fearless."
The police were called, but the Korean police were unable to help and could not find any information. The protagonist asked Xia Lan to help him. Xia Lan was intercepted by several masked men.
After receiving Xu Mo's request for help, Xia Lan agreed without hesitation. She knew that in such a complicated situation, it would be difficult for the police alone to solve all the problems. So, she decided to use her connections and abilities to conduct an independent investigation.
The next morning, Xia Lan, accompanied by Eun Jung and Xu Mo, went to every corner of Jeju Island to collect clues. However, just as they made some progress and found traces of some suspicious people, they were intercepted by several masked men.
The masked men were all very skilled and were obviously professionally trained killers. They suddenly rushed out from all directions of the streets and alleys, surrounding Eunjeong, Xu Mo and Xia Lan. The air was filled with a tense and oppressive atmosphere.
"Do you think you can escape from our clutches?" The masked man in the lead spoke in a low and cruel voice.
Eunjeong stuck close to Xu Mo. Although Xu Mo's shoulder injury had not healed, he still stepped forward and stood in front of Eunjeong, standing shoulder to shoulder with Xia Lan. Xia Lan calmly drew the dagger at her waist, her eyes as sharp as an eagle, ready to face this sudden battle.
"It seems that the big guy behind you is really willing to spend all his money." Xia Lan sneered and confronted the many masked men without fear.
"Stop talking nonsense!" One of the masked men drew out a dagger and attacked first. Xia Lan dodged the attack lightly, then counterattacked with a sword, forcing the killer back.
Although Xu Mo was injured, he used his wisdom and keen insight to help Xia Lan successfully resist the repeated attacks of the masked man. Although Eun Jung could not directly participate in the battle, she observed the enemy's movements and reminded them of potential threats in time.
In the fierce battle, Xia Lan found the right time and kicked a masked man to the ground with a beautiful roundhouse kick, then quickly subdued him and found a marked map and some communication equipment from him. The map marked several places where other killers might be hiding.
"It seems that this is the clue we are looking for." Xia Lan showed the map to Xu Mo and Eun Jung, and a look of excitement flashed across her face.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the masked men retreated, leaving behind several fallen accomplices. Xia Lan made a decisive decision to immediately track down the remaining killers and completely crush the boss's conspiracy.
