Ghost was doing some exercises in the dungeon. After being captured and having a life-saving operation, he was sent to this basement to be raised. He had meat for three meals a day, and a nurse with a dark face checked his body.

Although he had lost his freedom, Ghost felt an indescribable sense of comfort and security. After all, he had killed too many people and knew too many secrets. When Ghost was outside, he was always on edge, fearing that his enemies would come to his door. He basically put a pistol by his side before going to bed.

Being imprisoned here, he naturally didn't have to suffer these troubles. Anyway, he had already been captured by mistake, so the"hotel" would naturally think that he had been killed. Ghost estimated that his name had been erased.

Even if he escaped, no one would hire him. A killer could only fail once, and if he lost, he would die. This was an unwritten rule in the underworld.

But who cares? Anyway, he was well fed and well fed now, and he didn't have to worry about being found by his enemies one day. Even if he was slaughtered as a pig later, Ghost didn't care, because he was still alive.

After swinging his upper body, Ghost began to stretch his legs. Sometimes he admired his abnormal healing ability. After being shot through the thigh by the young man with a pistol, he only had an operation and recovered to normal in just a few months.

This made Ghost want to ask his parents how they gave birth to a freak like him, but unfortunately, he couldn't do it. It was just like the joke of Batman. He had lived in the orphanage of the"hotel" since he became conscious.

It was a place dedicated to cultivating"props". Ghost even heard rumors that the people in the orphanage were enhanced embryos, born in the culture medium. The only value of rootless people like them was naturally to complete the task.

When Ghost thought of this, he was in a very bad mood. In order to make his heart feel a little better, he picked up the tape beside him and put it into the tape recorder. Vivaldi's famous song Winter in the Four Seasons came out melodiously, which was very consistent with the current seasonal atmosphere. Although the sound quality of the tape recorder was very bad, it was better than nothing.

Although he had been a killer for so many years, the humanity and kindness he should have were almost wiped out, but only when he appreciated the music could Ghost feel a little alive.

Although he was imprisoned here and had no access to the internet, Ghost was surprisingly humane in other aspects. Books and newspapers were available whenever he asked for them, and he could even apply for equipment to listen to music. This made Ghost feel that Ghost was very humane.

However, thinking back to that day, when the violin was shot through by that young guy, Ghost felt a little annoyed again. That was a priceless treasure. It was the first time he got paid for it after starting his own business, and it was gone just like that, which was really infuriating.

But Ghost was frightened by the sudden sound of footsteps. He had been imprisoned for almost three months, and he stared at the ceiling in a daze almost every day, so he was a little sensitive to people's footsteps. The person who delivered the food had a somewhat rude stepping sound, and judging by his body, he had a polite lotus step. However, this sharp and rhythmic footsteps were the voice of Li Xinzhi, the man who had captured him that day.

"Wow, you look good. Are you listening to Verdi's Winter today? You have great taste~"

With a teasing tone like treating an old friend, Li Xinzhi appeared in a white suit and shirt, carrying a bag, with an elite style that did not match his age.

"Mr. Lee……"

Ghost hesitantly greeted Li Xinzhi because he had an instinctive fear of Li Xinzhi. The elegant and precise violence really made Ghost afraid of this smiling guy. If he hadn't begged for mercy in time, the grass on his grave would have been five feet high.

After learning that he was just a killer with a single line of contact and had no intelligence value, Li Xinzhi did not kill him. Instead, he had someone perform surgery in time to save the life of Ghost who was bleeding severely. When Ghost was imprisoned, he would come to chat with him from time to time.

However, this seemingly kind young man always made Ghost feel stressed. If the girl who hired him was a vicious person, then Mr. Li was a monster with iron blood. He always said some chilling words with a smile during a relaxed chat, and Ghost could feel that he was absolutely capable of achieving it. Getting along with this guy was like watching a lion yawn at you up close. He seemed lazy, but he could eat you up at any time.

"Don't be polite, Mr. Ghost, are you comfortable living here? It's comfortable to live in a safe life, so you don't have to be attacked as soon as you go out~"

However, this politeness didn't last long. Mr. Li poked at the ghost again with a very bad taste, and pointed out the ghost's little thoughts and current situation.

"Yes, yes, thank you very much, Mr. Li, for saving my life!"

But thinking that my life is in someone else's hands, with his scheming and means, I can't escape, so the ghost is not afraid of boiling water. He responded to Li Xinzhi very perfunctorily, is it interesting to play psychological warfare with a prisoner? I am just doing this for money, who knows if I will be involved in the confrontation between these gods

""Haha, are you kidding? Want a drink?"

Li Xinzhi was not angry at Ghost's attitude. Instead, he laughed heartily and shook the bag in his hand, signaling Ghost to drink. He brought fine whiskey and snacks, including braised beef and salted peanuts.

Before Ghost could react, he opened the cell door and went in without defense. He began to set up the table like an old friend.

"……Then I'm welcome.……"

Seeing such hospitality, Ghost couldn't continue to complain. He had experienced the opponent's strength, and he was drinking with him without any precautions, so it was not convenient for him to be clever. Anyway, if this guy wanted to kill him, he would have done it long ago, so why use such a despicable method as poisoning.

After three rounds of drinks, Ghost felt a little relaxed. Drinking fine wine, eating braised beef, listening to the whistling winter wind from the vents, he felt an indescribable comfort.

Obviously, he was drinking with this dangerous guy, but Ghost liked him a lot. After all, this guy was polite to him, but after many years in the underworld, he knew what Mr. Li wanted to do.

"Mr. Ghost, you have been here for so long, don't you feel bored? Do you need me to set you free?"

Then, seeing that the groundwork was almost done, Li Xinzhi offered to set Ghost free, but he rolled his eyes in displeasure. Ghost thought, is it necessary to go through so much trouble? He is not a fool. A free lunch is the most expensive thing.

"Thank you, Mr. Li, but I don't think Miss Nangong will forgive me!"

The ghost quickly refused. After all, he killed the second-in-command of the Linhai branch and almost killed Nangong Nuoya. If he went out in this situation, he would be killed immediately.

And what if he went out? The"hotel" would erase everything he had, and it would definitely kill his account as well. If he reappeared after being removed from the list, he would definitely be killed. It can be said that he was socially dead.

"What you should hate is the person who wields the knife, not the knife itself. Senior Noah understands this. I understand that you are paid for your work."

Li Xinzhi was not surprised by Ghost's reaction. He picked up a salted peanut and chewed it carefully, saying some philosophical words vaguely. After hearing this, Ghost was a little unhappy with his attitude, but he felt a little relieved.

"So, Mr. Li, just tell me what you want to do!"

But the ghost couldn't stand Li Xinzhi's riddle-talking look, so he told him to speak more directly. He couldn't stand such a mysterious talk.

"Mr. Ghost, there is an old saying in Donglu, called Xixi Material……"

"Big brother! Have I confessed everything I should?! I really have nothing to hide! I'll tell you the truth, you can kill me or chop me up as you like!"

"Haha, I'm just kidding, let me see how nervous you are. Come on! Let's drink!"
