In the apartment, William and Du Ruoying were having lunch, neither of them talking to each other until a phone call broke the silence.

"Hello, Brother Lian," it was Bai Qirun who called, "Bailes just came to inform that Liya is going to see us tonight and go to Jiading to discuss about Mansion No. wait."

William raised his eyes and glanced at Du Ruoying. She was engrossed in eating, with a rare indifference.He couldn't help chuckling: "Student Xiaoying asked you to say that?"

"Pfft," Du Ruoying almost choked on the words, "Shut...what's none of my business?"

"It's not good to secretly answer other people's calls." William took out the old-fashioned flip phone and opened it. "Well, I deleted the call history in advance. The rigor is commendable, but I'm used to putting the phone upside down. In your pocket, remember not to misplace it next time."

Damn, this kind of detail was caught by him...

Du Ruoying knew she was in the wrong, and pretended to clear her throat: "I didn't mean it, I saw that you were sleeping like a dead pig, and you didn't wake up when the call came, so I kindly answered it for you, how did you know it would be like this?" content."

"It seems that I have to thank you for your kindness, don't you?" William raised his eyebrows, and then said to Bai Qirun, "I have already understood the content of the task, student Qirun, don't participate this time."

"Huh?! But Baylis said..."

"Don't worry, I'll go and explain it to them." William smiled gently, "Since we can't hide it from classmate Xiaoying, it's better for us to do less things that make her worry, right?"

Bai Qirun on the other end of the phone fell into a brief silence.

"I think classmate Xiaoying also agrees with this proposal, right?" William glanced at Du Ruoying happily.

Du Ruoying knew that she couldn't refuse William's proposal at all, on the contrary - she wished Bai Qirun could quit.But if she doesn't help Bai Qirun, Bai Qirun will definitely hold a grudge, and it will be difficult to ask him for help next time.

Presumably William is also sure of this.

What an insidious guy, with a few words, he not only punished Bai Qirun calmly, but also successfully pinned the blame on her.

"Hey, Du, talk?" Bai Qirun urged impatiently.

Du Ruoying shamefully chose to keep silent.

"Speak up! Are you dumb?" William pressed the speakerphone gloatingly so that Bai Qirun's voice could be heard more clearly, "Du Ruoying, are you my mother? I have no relatives and no reason, are you worried? Are you going to participate? , what does it matter to you? Hey, pig teammate, are you too dishonest? I'm kind enough to help you, are you cheating on me?"

Seeing that Du Ruoying did not speak for a long time, Bai Qirun hung up the phone in a fit of anger.

"Satisfied?" William put away his phone.

In any case, Qi Run cannot be involved, as long as this goal can be achieved, nothing else can be expected.

Du Ruoying comforted herself silently.

But as expected, I still feel very frustrated. My mind was once again played by this guy in front of me, so despicable and blatant...

She curled her lips in frustration, and decided to change the subject: "So what is the mission the organization gave you this time? What does Mansion 6 mean?"

"If you want to know these contents, the price is very heavy, student Xiaoying," William raised the corners of his mouth, showing a playful expression, "Why don't you let me ask you first, why did you agree to Keya's participation?" What about the dance this weekend?"

"what?"

The topic changed so quickly that she couldn't react.

"Could it be—is your childish sense of justice overflowing again?"

sense of justice?What sense of justice?

How did she remember that she wanted to go to the dance purely because she thought it was fun and to delay the progress of task five?

This... has half a dime to do with the sense of justice?

Although I didn't know what he was talking about, but it sounded like a lot of information. After hesitating for a moment, Du Ruoying suddenly pretended to be firm and nodded: "Well, anyway, I'll make a decision!"

"Sure enough," William rubbed his forehead with a headache, "You shouldn't have found that notebook in the first place, but since you've seen it all, I'm afraid it's useless if I say you're not allowed to go."

notes?What notes?That clipboard full of celebrity names in the office?

Damn, she has no clue at all, but in the current situation, she can only continue acting.

"Yeah...yes! Don't think you can hide those shitty things from me. Let's make an agreement. We have to investigate this matter together. I don't worry about letting you do it alone!"

Seeing her serious and cute appearance, William couldn't help laughing again.

She is such a foolish girl. At the beginning, she obviously wanted to push the organization matters to him, but she stood by and watched, so as to take the opportunity to catch the leak. She didn't expect that she would take the initiative to join the game by fooling her a few words now, and her enthusiasm was still so high.

Fortunately, this also saved him a lot of trouble.

"Okay then, this time—" William paused intentionally, "I'll take you there reluctantly."

At night, William went to "Jiading" alone to meet Liya.

"I heard that you are friends with the boss of Salome Design Company." On the high seat, Liya handed William a document and two invitations, "They will hold a dance this Saturday, on the 6th People from the mansion will also come, I hope you can go there and negotiate a contract renewal for the supply of medicines for me."

"Don't bother with the invitation. Keya has already given me two copies." William only accepted the document, "What kind of medicine supply?"

"You can read the document for the specific content," Liya smiled. "This matter has always been handled by a special person before, but a small accident happened recently. The supplier I was dealing with secretly took some other orders because he was greedy for small money, and was caught by the police, and he lost his life because of it. The date of the big deal is imminent, and there is no suitable place in Mansion 6 for a while. If someone from someone else came to replace him, he decided to ask his immediate superior to negotiate this transaction with us."

"Immediate supervisor?"

"Well, we don't know the specific identity, we only know that her code name in Mansion No. 6 is 'Madame Butterfly'." Li Ya said, "Moreover, for her own safety, she also proposed such a trading rule—— Before the dance starts, the buyer needs to rely on his own reasoning ability to find her. During this period, she will neither give any clues nor give any positive or negative answers. After the dance starts, the buyer will then Take the initiative to invite her to dance, and use the cover of the music to negotiate the transaction amount with her. Once the dance is over, she will sign a contract with the buyer she likes. If the wrong person is invited, or the terms of the negotiation make her If you are not satisfied, it will lead to the failure of the transaction.”

"It seems that we are not the only buyers here?"

"Yes, there are more wolves and less meat."

Hearing this, William suddenly felt a sense of loss in his heart.Since the seller has formulated such rules of the game, it is obvious that buyers who are confused by the answers will not be welcome, which means that he will only be able to dance with Madame Butterfly alone.

She had already promised to take Du Ruoying to the dance, but she couldn't even dance with her in the end. She...would be unhappy, right?

"What a headache lady." Behind Li Ya, Bayliss smiled maliciously. "Being played by her like this, the difficulty of contract renewal has directly increased many times."

"That's why I asked Mr. William to give it a try," Liya said, "Personally, I am very optimistic about Mr. William's ability. These days, according to the criminal plan provided by Mr. William, our actions have become more and more smooth. Everyone I can also see it. As a descendant of the Moriarty family, Mr. William's abilities are indeed far superior to others, and I think he should be qualified for this mission."

Oh, ability?

William secretly sneered at Liya's hypocrisy.

He is very clear that the so-called "ability", "appreciation", and "optimism" are just rhetoric for the superior to fool his subordinates into dying.

The reason why this task was assigned to him was simply because the failure rate was too high, and senior members were unwilling to take risks. Therefore, it was the most popular way to let insignificant newcomers be cannon fodder.

What's more, he has killed many members including Phikas, and some people still hold grudges in their hearts. If he unfortunately dies in this mission, those who regard him as a thorn in his side will definitely applaud Liya. The organization can be regarded as a success in winning over a wave of people's hearts.

This Li Ya really should not be underestimated, one move can be said to be a double gain.

However, as the leader of a criminal organization, it is also obvious that Liya has no criminal talent-empty mind, keen to blindly copy other people's ideas, and seriously lacks his own creativity and insights. These are fatal flaws.

If he had never had any interaction with people like William, he would have been able to run a stable life for the rest of his life with his mediocre ability, but he was lured by greed and ambition, and had an undue dislike for the criminal plan formulated by William. Possessiveness, and dependence on the plan is gradually deepening.

If this goes on, losing momentum is only a matter of time.

"I can take on this mission," William paused for thought, and replied cautiously, noticing that the people around him showed sympathy for him, "but I can't take classmate Qi Run this time, I hope you can allow I'll go with someone else."

"No problem, this is your first task, and I am willing to give you ample room to play," Li Ya readily agreed, "I only have one request, and that is to successfully sign a contract extension."

After everything was settled, William was about to leave the organization. Just as he was about to walk out the gate, he suddenly heard the chatter of the guards at the gate.

"...What Madame Butterfly, I think it should be called Madame Mantis."

"Shh, what are you talking about? You don't want to die!"

"Hey, don't die? I still want to die! If she can die at the hands of Madame Butterfly, it will be considered romantic, hehehe! I heard that when she was young, she studied in France and went to the red light district to spend money. Qian has learned the skills of other people, so the skill in bed is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary people."

"But I've heard that the person who gets out of her bed must be disabled even if she doesn't die, otherwise she wouldn't be called Mrs. Mantis behind her back."

"Shh, shhh, stop talking, the prey Mrs. Mantis wants is coming!"

"Oh, what a pitiful young man."

"Don't look away, he killed so many of us, what's the pity?"

However, William didn't have time to worry about those rude idlers, because the strange feeling in his heart suddenly reminded him of an important thing——

According to the date, tonight is the number 3 of the Fibonacci sequence!

"You must leave here as soon as possible before the attack..."

Thinking of this, he quickened his pace unconsciously.

At one o'clock in the morning, Beiyu City was shrouded in heavy rain, and there was only the rustling sound of rain washing the earth.

In the apartment, Du Ruoying No.20 called William three times, but she still didn't get through.

William went out to talk about the mission at nine o'clock, and it should be over soon. It has been a full four hours now, not only did he not come back, but he also refused to answer the phone.

It's not the state of being unable to get through, but the state of no answer.

This is what disturbs her the most.

"Bai Qirun, where is 'Jiading', tell me—" Du Ruoying turned cheeky and turned to Bai Qirun for help.

But Bai Qirun was obviously still angry, and just said "No, it's not good to help you every time!" and hung up her phone.

In desperation, she had no choice but to take an umbrella and decided to go out and look for it by herself.

As soon as she stepped out of the teacher's apartment, she saw a yellow taxi parked at the door. The back door of the car was ajar, and water was pouring in.The master driver picked up William, who was unconscious, and was slowly walking towards her.

The torrential rain seemed to be falling more violently, and people could barely open their eyes. The two of them were soaked, and they walked with difficulty, wading through the puddles with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

Seeing Du Ruoying, the taxi driver heaved a sigh of relief: "Girl, are you here to pick him up?"

"Yes," Du Ruoying hurried over to hold up an umbrella for them, "What's wrong with him?"

"I don't know, wow, he didn't look very comfortable when he got in the car. I wanted to send him to the hospital, but he refused to die, and just made himself like this."

"It's poisoning," William murmured vaguely, his expression was very painful, and his body temperature felt abnormally cold to the touch, "Liberaci..."

Although she didn't understand what he was saying, Du Ruoying comforted him casually and said, "Well, I see. I'm almost home, hold on."

Together with the taxi master, she worked together to send William back to the apartment, and then brought a set of William's clean clothes on her own, and changed it for the soaked taxi master, and then sent him away very gratefully.

When he returned to William, he seemed to be feeling better, but he was still panting heavily.

"What's going on... Did they poison you?" Du Ruoying asked cautiously while bringing a cup of hot water.

"No." William reached out to push the water glass away, then lightly closed his eyes, and put the back of his hand on his forehead to cover the glare of the glare, "It was the first time I dealt with Mi Musha, I got into trouble, and I still can't figure it out. With that, he told her everything.

"Didn't she leave you an antidote or something?" Du Ruoying asked suspiciously.

"No, she's just a user of the drug, not a maker, and she doesn't know how to configure the antidote. And she said that the current situation is purely because it has been delayed for too long, which will lead to the toxicity getting deeper and deeper into the bone marrow, becoming Difficult to deal with, in fact, most people don’t need antidote at all.”

"Then... what should we do? Will it be bad for your health if you delay it for a long time?" Du Ruoying suddenly panicked, "Are there no other clues about Liberaci?"

"I've already asked her for a sample, and I took it to Xiali for research," William said softly, his voice was so weak that it hurts, "Besides, she also told me where I can find detoxification Methods."

"Where is it?" Du Ruoying asked with concern.

"At..." William hesitated for a moment, "Madame Butterfly in Mansion No. 6."
