Chapter 62 The Two-Faced Woman
If the photo looks like that, it might be due to the shooting angle.
The two were now only ten meters apart. Yu Jing used his wine glass as a cover to carefully observe the girl who had just come out of the kitchen. He felt more and more that she and the target of his commission were not just "similar".
Yu Jing really wanted to say that they were the same person.
However, the monster detector on the Torchwatch reminded him that it was hard to say how many of the "people" in the house were actually real.
There is no doubt that the mercenary's earlier guess at the dam was correct.
The fact that the Rain Demon has survived the Bureau of Paranormal Investigations to this day suggests that it possesses some means of disguising itself as a human.
However, the necessary confirmation process cannot be omitted.
The employer's requirement is to see her alive or dead. Even if Sammi Cheng has become a monster, as long as she still has this face, we can take her back to report. It's just that the payment will be halved, but one million is still a lot!
Instead of rushing over, Yu Jing, holding his wine glass, pretended to be very interested in the small courtyard outside the guesthouse. He walked straight to the window, secretly activated the wireless earpiece hidden in his ear, and quickly spoke towards the courtyard.
"Target located. I'm going to test her identity. There seems to be an alien monster in the guesthouse. Be ready to come and help at any time... I'm not sure how many normal people are here, so I can't tell. I can only wait and see."
The Torch Watch's detection capabilities are limited, and it is prone to confusion when encountering multiple monsters.
Given that the number of alien monsters is unknown and their identities are difficult to ascertain.
Yu Jing cannot take the initiative; that would only push things into an unpredictable and dangerous situation.
"Keep the disguise in place, first find out if Sammi Cheng is a monster. Once we know the result, we'll immediately contact the Bureau of Paranormal Investigations!"
Although he didn't know how Yu Jing discovered the monster, Qing Gui still chose to trust his judgment and responded quickly.
Ultimately, their commission target was only Sammi Cheng.
Since the situation is complicated, let's take a step back and let the Bureau of Extraordinary Investigations, which is hunting down the Rain Demon, intervene to solve the problem. This way, we can extricate ourselves from danger and also earn an intelligence fee and a favor from the Bureau of Extraordinary Investigations.
"clear."
Having already made up his mind, Yu Jing turned around, holding his wine glass, and walked straight towards the girl who looked remarkably like Sammi Cheng.
She was sitting alone at the bar in the living room, drinking, which matched Xu Lang's previous description of her.
At this moment, Yu Jing didn't have time to help Xu Lang flirt with girls. Taking advantage of her back being turned to him, he quickly approached and, relying on his superior eyesight enhanced by the [Savage Physique], he quickly spotted the crescent-shaped scar behind the girl's ear.
That's right, she is Sammi Cheng...
At least this body is what they're looking for; as for what's inside, that's another story.
"Hi, may I buy you a drink?"
Sitting down in the empty seat next to Sammi Cheng, Yu Jing asked directly.
This is supposed to be a social party, so if he acts coy, it's more likely to arouse suspicion.
"Of course, what's your name?"
The girl looked Yu Jing up and down, a slightly awkward smile tugging at the corners of her mouth.
It was less of a smile and more like following a certain program to adjust her facial expression. Yu Jing pretended not to see it and continued,
"My name is Yu Jing, but you can also call me by my nickname, Cotton. That's what my friends call me."
Cotton was Sammi Cheng's favorite pet name. It died of illness two years ago. Yu Jing deliberately gave himself this somewhat effeminate nickname just to test her reaction.
"My name is Sammi Cheng, and Cotton... It sounds a bit strange, not like a nickname a man should have."
The girl looked at Yu Jing with some surprise and said repeatedly.
"Haha, you think so too, right? I've complained to them several times already, but they still keep shouting like that. I can't do anything about it. Bring me a drink that's suitable for this beautiful lady... Could you wait a moment? I suddenly remembered that I need to tell a friend something."
Yu Jing picked up his wine and took a sip, a cold glint in his eyes. He smiled and pointed at Xu Lang, who was watching them from a distance.
"It's okay, there's still plenty of time tonight."
"I'll be back soon."
Having confirmed his identity, Yu Jing had no intention of wasting any more time and got up to head straight for Xu Lang.
She really is a monster disguised as Sammi Cheng.
They only know their own name, but have no memory of themselves.
This explains why she suddenly reappeared here after being missing for nearly half a month.
With so many monsters gathered here tonight, it's easy to guess what they want to do: they've been lying in wait under the intense pressure of the Bureau of Paranormal Investigations, hoping to take advantage of the storm to have a feast.
Yu Jingcai wouldn't give them a chance. Now that it was confirmed that Sammi Cheng was a monster in disguise, there was nothing to worry about.
Halfway there, he pretended to bend down to tie his shoelaces, but actually contacted the Green Demon and the mercenaries outside again.
"The target's identity has been confirmed. She is not Sammi Cheng. The monster is disguised as her. Contact the Bureau of Paranormal Investigation immediately. I will keep an eye on her. Once the Bureau of Paranormal Investigation arrives, I will take care of her as soon as possible and take the body out."
Although Sammi Cheng was a monster in disguise, as mentioned above, as long as she could maintain this appearance to go back and report, Yu Jing didn't care what was inside her; getting the corpse out was the most important thing.
"How did you end up hooking up with her? Damn it, she ignored me, and now she treats you like this. Just because you're handsome doesn't mean you can do whatever you want!"
Xu Lang, having witnessed the conversation between Yu Jing and Zheng Xiuwen, said with some resentment,
"I didn't expect you to like this type... Hey, you haven't already successfully hooked her up, have you?"
Looking at Xu Lang, who was hovering on the verge of being breached and had no idea what was happening here, Yu Jing could only say that ignorance is bliss.
"This isn't the time to talk about this, Brother Xu. I think I left the ring my grandma passed down to me in the car. Could you come with me to look for it?"
Thinking about what might happen later, Yu Jing tried to trick Xu Lang into leaving the guesthouse.
Once they were outside, he would tell him the whole story and let him leave first, while he stayed behind to keep an eye on Sammi Cheng.
"A ring? Were you wearing a ring when you came?"
Xu Lang looked at Yu Jing with a surprised expression, and then said,
"If I remember correctly, your hands were completely empty at the time, how could you have dropped it in the car? You probably left it at home. What's the rush? Finish the party first, and look for it slowly when you get back."
"No, I remember wearing a ring when I got on the bus, you..."
Boom! Boom!
A sudden clap of thunder outside interrupted Yu Jing's words.
Then came the sound of "splashing" rain; the storm that had been brewing all day finally arrived!
Then Yu Jing saw Lina, who should have been in the kitchen, appear at the door of the guesthouse. She closed and locked the door, turned around, stuffed the key into her cleavage, and then raised her arms, looking at everyone present and shouting.
"A storm is coming! Soon this place will be completely isolated from the world!"
"People outside will never know how romantic things are going to happen here tonight."
"Everyone, let loose and have a blast!"
She was met with cheers from the crowd!
