The Divine Eye for Appreciating Treasures: Starting from Escape from Northern Myanmar
Chapter 1221 Are You Qingluan?
Inside the room, the air seemed to be frozen. It was so quiet that only the occasional sound of wind outside the window and the two people's subtle breathing could be heard.
Cindy's thoughts were like fallen leaves blown by the wind, chaotic and uneasy.
She looked up at Xia Yuhe, her clear yet worried eyes reflecting the common predicament and helplessness of the two.
Cindy knew very well that if she stayed here, not only would she be unable to escape the endless threats from Akbang, but she might also drag the innocent Xia Yuhe into this dangerous vortex.
A strong sense of responsibility and self-blame surged in her heart. She felt that she had already brought too much trouble and danger to Xia Yuhe, and she must not let her be hurt because of her again.
"Yuhe, we can't go on like this." Cindy's voice was soft but full of unquestionable determination. "Akbang is powerful, we can't just sit there and wait for death. I have to leave and find a solution to all this, or at least find a safe haven for you."
Upon hearing this, Xia Yuhe stopped and a hint of astonishment and reluctance flashed in her eyes.
She held Cindy's hand tightly, as if to draw strength and courage from it. "Cindy, I can't let you face this alone. We are friends, and we should advance and retreat together." Her voice trembled slightly, but revealed an unquestionable firmness.
Just as the two were in deep entanglement and reluctance, the doorbell suddenly rang outside the door, like a sudden spring breeze, breaking the dullness in the room.
The two looked at each other and saw hope and doubt in each other's eyes.
Who would come to visit at this time? Is it another test from Akbang, or an unexpected help?
Xia Yuhe took a deep breath, motioned Cindy to stay where she was, and she walked cautiously to the door and peeked out through the peephole.
When Xia Yuhe's eyes fell on the heroic woman in black leather armor at the door, she was startled and ripples surged in her heart.
Lisa, a name that once left a deep mark in her life, now appeared before her in such an unexpected way.
In Xia Yuhe's memory, Lisa's identity was always closely linked to mystery and danger. Every action she took seemed to be dancing on the edge of a knife. If she was not careful, she would be doomed.
And at this moment, Lisa actually came to this place full of unknowns and dangers in person. Xia Yuhe naturally knew the meaning of this.
Lisa didn't say much, just nodded slightly, her eyes revealing an indescribable complex emotion, as if telling Xia Yuhe that everything was self-explanatory.
She walked straight into the room, and her eyes instantly locked on Cindy lying on the bed. At that moment, time seemed to freeze, and a subtle atmosphere filled the air.
Cindy, the once powerful drug lord, has now fallen into such a state, lying on a simple bed, her face haggard, her eyes having lost their former luster.
Her transformation was undoubtedly a huge shock to Lisa. Once upon a time, they fought side by side and faced countless storms and challenges together, but things are unpredictable, and now their identities and status are worlds apart.
Lisa walked slowly to Cindy's bedside, with sympathy and emotion in her eyes. She said softly, "Cindy, long time no see. I never thought we would meet again under such circumstances." Her voice was deep and magnetic, and every word hit Cindy's heart like a heavy hammer.
Cindy forced a bitter smile and raised her head with difficulty, looking at Lisa's face that was both familiar and unfamiliar.
She had mixed feelings in her heart, including nostalgia for the past and helplessness about the current situation.
She responded softly, "Yes, Lisa, long time no see. I never thought that we would meet again under such circumstances."
The room fell into a brief silence, with only the occasional sound of wind outside the window breaking the tranquility.
Lisa and Cindy were both lost in their own thoughts, recalling the past and the difficult times they had gone through together.
Finally, it was Lisa who broke the silence.
She took a deep breath and said, "Cindy, I know your situation is difficult now. But please believe that no matter what happens, I will do my best to help you. After all, we were once comrades-in-arms and friends."
A trace of gratitude flashed in Cindy's eyes, and she held Lisa's hand tightly, as if she had drawn long-lost strength and courage from it.
She whispered, "Thank you, Lisa. I feel better having you around."
Lisa's words were direct and decisive, like a sharp blade cutting through the heavy air in the room.
She stood beside Cindy's bed, her eyes showing both unquestionable firmness and a subtle tenderness.
"Cindy, the choice you face now is crucial. The first path is to walk with me, using our respective resources and wisdom to open up new horizons in the business field and get rid of the shadow of the past. The second path is to compromise with Akbon, but that means you will lose your freedom forever and may even fall into deeper darkness." Although Lisa's words are short, every word is weighty, and it is impossible to ignore the deep meaning behind them.
Cindy's eyes suddenly became sharp when she heard that. She stared at Lisa closely, as if she was looking for the answer from her eyes.
After a moment of silence, Cindy slowly spoke, with a barely perceptible tremor in her voice: "Lisa, you have always been one of the people I trust the most, but today, I need you to answer me a question. Are you the legendary Qingluan? The informant of the Xia Country Drug Enforcement Bureau who hides in the dark but never really shows up?"
After these words were spoken, not only did Lisa's expression change slightly, but even Xia Yuhe beside her also showed a look of surprise.
Xia Yuhe thought to herself that she had doubted Lisa's identity many times, but because she had no solid evidence, she could only bury the doubt deep in her heart.
Now, Cindy's direct questioning has undoubtedly lifted a corner of this secret veil.
Lisa took a deep breath, as if weighing the pros and cons and consequences.
"I don't know what Qingluan is. I am me, not anyone else. If I were Qingluan, you would have died long ago."
Lisa said with certainty.
Cindy shook her head: "If it weren't for Qingluan, I wouldn't have failed. It's all because of her. I'm like this now, I should be able to die with my eyes closed. Can you tell me?"
