48 Hours a Day - Chapter 1349
Chapter 1349: Mail
Miss Succubus woke up early for once in her life. She looked at the time and realized that it wasn’t even 7 am yet. She didn’t even bother to change into her pajamas and leaned over the peephole. Seeing that there was no one in the corridor, she opened the door, then, she tiptoed over to Zhang Heng’s room next door and placed her ear against the door to listen carefully.
Of course, she didn’t hear anything. When she was about to sneak back into her room, she saw Zhang Heng, who had just bought breakfast downstairs.
Miss Succubus looked embarrassed. “Ah, I dropped my earring… look for it on the floor.”
“Did you find it?”Zhang Heng handed one of the breakfasts to Miss Succubus.
The latter sighed. She knew that her lie wasn’t convincing, so she didn’t insist. “I didn’t mean to pry into your privacy.”
“I know. You want to make sure that the next night is over and that my body still belongs to me. It’s okay, I understand,”Zhang Heng said.
“That would be great.”Miss Succubus heaved a sigh of relief.
“Have your breakfast first.”
Miss Succubus had already stepped into her room, but she stopped in her tracks. “Where are we going after breakfast?”
“Nowhere. Just stay at the hotel. I have something to pack,”Zhang Heng said. “Of course, if you’re bored, you can go out for a walk. I Won’t restrict your movements.”
Miss Succubus shook her head. “Forget it. I’m not going to wander around at this juncture. It’ll be troublesome if I run into those guys who kidnapped sage again.”
“Actually, it’s very unlikely that those guys will make a move on you again,”Zhang Heng said, “The things they’ve done previously were basically to intensify the conflict between the New Gods and the Old Gods and to start a war. Now that the war has come, their mission at this stage can be considered completed. There’s no reason for them to still focus on you guys.”
“What will they do next?”
“I don’t know. I’m not one of them,”Zhang Heng said.
However, after he said that, Miss Succubus still didn’t return to her room. Instead, he sighed again.
“You’re a good person. When I first met you, you saved that little girl who had nothing to do with you. I knew it. You’re not as cold as you look. A person like you shouldn’t have ended up like this.”
“Does a succubus have a concept of justice and Evil?”Zhang Heng asked curiously. “I thought you guys didn’t care about such things.”
“I know what you’re trying to say. We… Seduce men and suck their essence to survive. This is our way of making a living. Just like how wolves and lions hunt their prey, can you say that they’re evil? “And strictly speaking, we are also different from wolves and lions. Wolves and lions only bring death to their prey, and between us and the target, it’s more like an equivalent exchange relationship. We give the target the pleasure that no one can give them, and in return, they will give us a part of their essence.”
Miss Succubus paused and continued, “All these years, the church has been slandering us in public opinion, as if meeting our men didn’t end well. I don’t deny that some of us have indeed gone a little overboard. However, under normal circumstances, a wet dream will not cause you to lose more energy than masturbating. Unless you do it continuously every day, there won’t be any health problems.”
“I understand.”
“Of course we have our own opinions. Otherwise, why do you think I didn’t report you to the organizing committee?”Miss Succubus rolled her eyes. Then, a worried look appeared on her face, “Are you sure the person you’re talking about… will come looking for you?”
“Yes,”Zhang Heng said with certainty. “He has waited for so many years. There’s no reason for him to give up at the last moment.”
“What do you mean he has waited for so many years?”Miss Succubus was confused.
However, Zhang Heng did not explain further. He only said to her, “Hurry up and eat. The tofu pudding is getting cold.”
“I almost forgot what I was going to say after being interrupted by you. In short, if you want to find another way or anyone else, I can accompany you. Don’t you still have two weeks left? It’s not like we can’t look for Hermes.”
“Thank you,”Zhang Heng said politely. “If I need anything, I’ll come to you.”
..
Miss Succubus did not expect Zhang Heng to stay in his room for the whole day. It was not until dinner time that she knocked on the door and saw a certain someone.
Zhang Heng had probably just taken a shower, and his hair was still wet. It was only then that Miss Succubus noticed the unnoticeable tiredness in Zhang Heng’s eyes.
As the saying goes, staying up late was the most important nightlife for young people in modern times. It would be abnormal if a person in his early twenties did not stay up late. Previously, Zhang Heng had also worked through the night to fulfill his promise to ISIS, however, the succubus did not see any tiredness in his eyes.
On the other hand, Zhang Heng looked a little tired after staying in the hotel for the whole day. Furthermore, the tiredness was not physical, but more like mental. The succubus thought of a possibility, for the first time, she did not ask, and Zhang Heng did not explain.
The two of them tacitly skipped over the matter. After they finished their dinner in the restaurant, they returned to their respective rooms. Zhang Heng received a new email a little later.
The new email came from Fu Lou. Since ISIS had already cured fan meinan, Zhang Heng naturally told fourth Ding about closing the reward card. However, he was still holding a considerable amount of points, han Lu had helped him raise the funds in the early stages, so it was useless to keep it in his hands. Furthermore, the value of the points was still declining, so Zhang Heng asked Fu Lou to help him look for suitable items.
However, Zhang Heng did not expect the organizing committee to close the game. As the game points closed one after another, the value of the points had fallen to the bottom. It was less than one-tenth of what it used to be, this was because the players knew very well that unless Gaime came back, the points would not be any different from scrap paper.
However, when Zhang Heng’s gaze swept across the email from Fu Lou, he was slightly surprised.
Because Fu Lou had told him in the email that he had actually found a soul-type item for him. He had asked Zhang Heng if he was still interested in buying it. Due to the drop in the value of the points, the buyer no longer accepted the payment, he hoped that he could use the item as an exchange.
At the end of the email, there was a detailed description of the item.
