Chapter 43

Poisoning

———————————————————

......

"Where is his consciousness? Where has his consciousness gone?"

Na Yun asked urgently, but Qiu Ming stood there very calmly, as if it was not the first time all this happened, and he was already used to it.

Na Yun seemed to realize something, she guessed: "You know?"

Qiu Ming nodded: "His consciousness is just as you should have guessed, in the Republic of China!"

"Akang's consciousness is in the Republic of China?" Ruiqiao asked in shock: "How is this possible?"

"Nothing is impossible in the industry!" Qiuming replied: "Didn't the diary left by Father Ivan clearly record Lu Ankang's existence?"

Ruiqiao nodded, and Qiu Ming's words also indirectly meant that he had arrived long ago.

Qiu Ming continued: "If it weren't for your extraordinary relationship with Boss Lu, I wouldn't have told you about this!"

"Why tell us now?"

Ruiqiao asked.

Qiu Ming looked at the disappearing villa outside and said, "The evil spirit has not been eliminated. Boss Lu's body still needs someone to protect it here. But now the store is preparing for his next task and has no time to withdraw. As friends, you should not let Boss Lu's body ignore it."

"So this is the biggest secret of that grocery store in the industry?" Na Yun was silent for a while and spoke again. Qiu Ming replied: "Yes, every boss selected by the grocery store will inherit the corresponding abilities. I don't know what the bosses in the past have inherited, but Boss Lu inherited as you see. He has experienced many things that we cannot imagine in the past..."

Na Yun said to herself, "So, this is why he looks much older when I see him again?"

Tyumin looked at the time.

Then he said to Ruiqiao and Na Yun: "I'm sorry, you have been staying next to Boss Lu's body these days. The villa has disappeared so weirdly. I have to investigate it while Boss Lu investigates it!"

After saying that, he did not give the two of them too much time to refuse, so he walked to the place where the villa disappeared. There he looked at the empty lawn, and there was no trace of the villa disappearing.

What exactly is it?

What is that scary mouth?

"Lu Ankang, if it were you here, how would you understand?"

After Chyumin grabbed a handful of soil on the lawn, he left.

As for Na Yun and Ruiqiao, although they remained silent, they chose to stay here unanimously to protect the safety of their common friend, Lu Ankang.

......

And on the other side.

New Year's Eve in 1938.

Because of the last time, Lu Ankang received an invitation from Ding Tairan to rush to Ding’s family to celebrate the New Year. This should be the first time Ding Tairan invited an outsider to his home to celebrate the New Year. Lu Ankang did not refuse. During the past few months of contact, although Ding Tairan’s Axe Gang was a gangster, he had an extremely firm position in the War of Resistance.

"Fuck the fucking Japanese to death first. What did Lao Jiang think? I don't understand such a simple truth?" Ding Tairan yelled at the radio, because the position of Jiang Jiang had just been emphasized. He was in a state of trouble. His son Ding An, who was on the side, tried his best to appease Ding Tairan, but the old guy's temper was so bad that he couldn't even hold on to eight horses.

At this moment, Lu Ankang brought Xu Yali, and Qin Mengyao was also here with him. Of course, Qin Mengyao's arrival was something she insisted on.

It was too boring to say that it was staying at home alone, but the Japanese woman, Heiko, went to her Japanese fellow villager's house. It was said that it was during the Chinese New Year, so she would not disturb Lu Ankang and the others.

Lu Ankang suspected that she should have done something secret.

As for what?

I don't say it without any certainty.

When Ding Tairan saw Lu Ankang arrive, he quickly took Lu Ankang to complain about Lao Chiang's decision. He just smiled at Lu Ankang, who was familiar with this history.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, everyone went to Paramount.

There are foreigners' cocktail parties there, so Lu Ankang and Gang Leader Ding, who are famous figures in Chengnan City, will naturally not be absent.

After arriving, Lu Ankang tried to find a place to eat quietly, because there were too many cameras there. He didn't know if he would take a photo. If it was spread to modern times, wouldn't it be a problem.

However, just as he was avoiding these cameras, those unlucky things always came over like he was stuck to him.

When he hid from the first floor to the stairs and was about to go up the stairs, it was just that moment.

His feet were empty...

This time it was not an accident.

Lu Ankang clearly felt that someone deliberately tripped him, and that was not alone. It was a...

Lu Ankang widened his eyes and tripped at his figure and forgot to go past.

He saw something like a paper man.

Talisman?

White talisman?

Very few locals here use white talismans, most of which are yellow talismans. What about this one?

Lu Ankang's mind immediately flashed through his mind that most of the evil magic in Japan looked like the white spells that he liked to cast spells.

Japanese evil magic cannot appear here for no reason.

Lu Ankang took a deep breath and was about to chase the paper man, he suddenly became dizzy all over his body.

Something is wrong.

Why can't I exert my strength?

Lu Ankang looked at his palm, and a touch of black was printed there, under the skin of the palm. Lu Ankang soon realized that he had been poisoned, and the effect of this poison seemed to be specifically targeted at his own spells.

Just when Lu Ankang wanted to use spells or even use his true energy, the speed of the poison spreading began to increase faster and faster.

Realizing that he could not keep doing this, Lu Ankang had thought about leaving here, but the other party obviously would not let him leave easily. He turned around and slipped to the second floor of Paramount, and slipped into the manager's office without much notice. He hurriedly called Father Ivan. At present, the only person he could rely on in this time and space was the only person he could rely on.

When the old guy heard that he had encountered a crisis, he did not refuse. He rushed to Paramount at a very fast speed.

A priest rushed to the scene of the Paramount reception, which was undoubtedly unexpected.

Because there are many foreigners here and most of them know Father Ivan, most of his attitude is respectful.

So, when Father Ivan helped Lu Ankang downstairs on the second floor.

Ding Tairan, the old man, naturally realized something.

Instead of leaving the reception site directly, he arranged for Ding An to take several subordinates to protect Lu Ankang from leaving.

As for the next thing, when we meet, we will deal with it again...
