Lyca looked at Huang Ying's sleeping face before she looked at the blood in the vial that she was holding. Slowly, Lyca shifted her gaze towards the vial before shaking it. The dark red blood inside soon turned purple before finally turning into green.
Seeing this, Lyca squinted and tucked the vial in the storage in her belt. Then she signaled Shen Qui to leave now. She already got the confirmation that she wanted. It is time for them to proceed with their next plan.
Silently, the two left the building where Huang Ying was kept.
"What is it?" Shen Qui asked, the moment, they arrived in the small hostel that they were renting.
"Her memory was wiped out," Lyca said. "Huang Qingyun is working with Xu Ke. Only Xu Ke can create something like this."
"Do you know what it was?"
"It is something that could wipe out all of your memories. Including your childhood memories. Reading, writing, and even speaking. Everything will be erased."
"How is that possible?"
"Everything is possible. As long as you know what to do." Lyca sighed. "The person who made this was very knowledgeable with the human body. Particularly, the brain. " To be honest, Xu Ke was the only one capable of doing this. "But it needs a lot of trial and error, a lot of experimentations, a lot of lab rats." The thing is this is not even considered the worst medicine that Xu Ke knew how to do. If Lyca was right and if Xu Ke indeed found a way to summon materials from their previous world then, she needed to stop him.
This was not because of her moral values. This was because of her own selfish reasons. Creating those potions and poisons could practically make Xu Ke untouchable.
She couldn't allow that to happen.
"So the thing that Shen Qiaosong said…"
"It should be true. Xu Ke does not have any regard for human life." Lyca sat at the edge of the bed and stared at the vial, slowly holding it against the LED light bulb. "It's better if we assume that while I was looking for ways to recreate poisons, he was looking for ways to make something like this."
"You said that he came from a family of healers in your world?"
"Yes," Lyca nodded. "That's why … they wanted us to marry. My family was assassinated. We could protect them. Of course, they still betrayed us in the end. At the end of the day, profits matter most. Not that I blame them. They must have thought that we would betray them too." In that world, betrayal is considered a part of life. It's as natural as breathing.
"It is also safe to assume that he knows ways on how to alter someone's memory." She put the vial back to her storage. "And he might use it against us."
Shen Qui stared at him. "Do you have ways to fight this?"
"No. I am an expert in killing people. I have more than a hundred ways to kill someone. I can't save a thing." In the past life, she wasn't able to save her family too. She was good at killing but just never good at saving. "Unless I would have access to these things in advance."
"You— " Shen Qui blinked, he stared at her. "You are thinking of…"
"I don't think there would be any other way."
"You can't work with him!"
"I know. But… he came here before me. If the experiment was true, then he must be doing something dangerous. He is knowledgeable, smart, and definitely not someone that would act rashly. If I won't work undercover, we won't know what is he up to." Lyca thought that Xu Ke won't bring what he was good at in this world. Again, she was wrong.
The creation of this potion was enough proof that Xu Ke is experimenting and hurting humans. Of course, this does not concern Lyca at all. What concerns her is the fact that Xu Ke might hurt her family again. What if he used these potions on her family members? What if he used it against Shen Qui?
Lyca wouldn't allow something like that to happen. She would be a fool if she would allow him near her family again!
So, she will strike first.
And this time, she will win.
"The Shen Family is the key to all this," Lyca said. "By now, old man Shen must be planning to do something against me. He would want to kill me. I will meet him days from now and you— you will have to save me."
Pursing his lips, Shen Qui sat next to her.
"Do you trust me?" she asked.
"With my life," he answered without batting an eyelid.
Lyca nodded. "You will give your life to me?"
"You already own my life."
"Eww.." Lyca chuckled before she laughed then she reached out and held his hand. "This is not going to last," Lyca said. "I will come back. Do you understand me?"
He didn't say anything as he stared at her resolute eyes. "The fact that you wanted to work hard is enough assurance that you will come back." He knows her. Lyca wouldn't waste too much energy on something she wasn't sure of, on something that would only waste her time.
Her laziness was enough assurance for him.
Lyca stared at his beautiful face before she leaned forward and give him a light kiss. "I trust you." She gave him a gentle smile.
…..
"Is everything ready?" Huang Sheng Hong looked at Tang Nini. The smell of detergent and cleaning solutions was thick around them. He slowly removed his gloves and gave his wife a look of inquiry. Was she nervous?
"Yes. Were ready." Tang Nini sighed, brows furrowed. "Are you sure about this plan? What if something happened to Lyca?"
"If we don't do this, something might happen to her." Huang Sheng Hong had a resolute expression on his face. "Don't you trust our daughter? I'm sure that everything will work out in the end. And... i don't want to be a burden."
Tang Nini clenched her jaw as she shook her head and stared at the stuff that Lyca wanted them to prepare. "It's all ready."
Huang Sheng Hong's eyes narrowed. Right now, he couldn't understand why Lyca would say that she would strike first. But, he could feel the certainty in Lyca's voice. He could hear the determination in her voice when she said that she wanted to protect them.
And while he was pretty capable of defending himself. He chose not to intervene this time.
