In the neon of blue and purple, under the thick steel sky, at the forefront of this surge of data, lies the world post-tech revolution. It's also the dividing line between reality and illusion. Steel and flesh, past and future. In this place, the world outside and inside coexist. Everything in front of us feels like a wall of time within reach. The darkness is slowly creeping in. But hey, my friend, you gotta know, we can't just counter darkness with softness. Gotta use fire.
Countdown 1:00:00.
Only four hours were left until the crossing, which was also the set time for Zhang Tianzhen, Hu Xiaoniu, and Zhang Chengze to exchange the money.
The final agreed amount was one million in cash per week, with 500,000 paid before crossing and the remaining 500,000 paid upon safe return.
Before Liu Dezhu left to withdraw cash, Qing Chen had some instructions to give.
In the Daytime group.
Boss: "Liu Dezhu, be careful when you go to withdraw the money. After you've withdrawn it, keep it at your house."
"Okay, thank you for your concern, Boss," Liu Dezhu replied, "I won't have any problems."
Qing Chen fell silent for a moment, actually what he meant was to be careful with the 'money', not his own safety…
However, he didn't correct him, since Liu Dezhu was currently loyal and he didn't want to hurt his feelings, plus he needed to maintain the boss's demeanor.
