Xiangxue pointed her slender index finger at the tip of Li Tao's nose and said, "Even the entire West Coast is gone. It's just the two of us tonight."

"Gudu~"

Li Tao swallowed, and his eyes glowed with a strange green light.

"I'll wash your body. After you take off your clothes, sit on the stool and I'll make some foam for you."

Xiangxue walked barefoot towards the bottle of shower gel, pumped out the shower gel, and then began to rub it in her palms.

Li Tao couldn't explain why. Anyway, he was embarrassed to take off his clothes in front of Li Manzi and Aunt Liu. But he had no such concerns in front of Xiang Xue and he took off his clothes in no time.

"Don't take off your clothes in front of me, you bastard."

Seeing this, Xiangxue, who was rubbing the foam, blushed and lowered her head to start kneading the foam.

"Hurry up, take a quick shower, and then we'll go into the hot spring." Li Tao urged.

"I know, why are you in such a hurry?" Xiangxue rolled her eyes and came behind Li Tao with two balls of white foam in her palms.

She knelt on the ground naturally and applied the ointment on Li Tao's back.

"Did you wash it yourself?" Li Tao asked.

"I just sat in the pool for a while, without using soap or shower gel or anything. What, do you think I'm dirty?" Xiangxue stopped what she was doing and asked.

"No, I was thinking that it would be your turn to sit down later, and I would apply it on you from behind." Li Tao explained.

"If you think I'm dirty, don't touch me for a while, and I won't wash."

Xiangxue pressed harder and Li Tao's skin turned visibly red.

"No, I don't have any..."

Aunt Liu and Li Manzi were not around, so during this long night he could let down his guard and indulge in the charm of the queen.

"Crash-"

"You are crazy. Why did you suddenly turn on the shower and splash water all over me?"

Li Tao suddenly stood up from the bench and turned on the shower, scaring Xiangxue so much that she sat down on the ground.

Li Tao glanced at her and said, "I can't stand it anymore. I'll wash off the foam and carry you into the hot spring to do my job."

Xiangxue blushed and sat on the ground without saying a word. It was a hard and refreshing sleepless night...

ps: There were some mistakes when copying the previous chapter, which have been revised. The drafts are too messy, and I am also saving drafts for the new book, with a single female protagonist and a shameless doomsday couple. I hope you will support me when I publish it this month.

Chapter 188 Plum Blossom K

At 2:30 in the morning, Li Tao climbed out of the bed in the hot spring hotel.

Xiangxue had fallen asleep exhausted, her rosy little face still red from being tormented by the man. Li Tao tucked the quilt in for her, picked up her clothes and walked out of the room.

"Ha~"

Li Tao yawned loudly at the door. He was exhausted and needed Aunt Liu's medicinal wine at this time.

Before having sex with Xiangxue on the bed in the hotel, Li Tao saw the messages from Aunt Liu and Li Manzi.

He could only panic and tell Aunt Liu that there was a minor accident during the renovation of the flower shop and he had to be there to deal with it. He also promised to be home before three o'clock in the morning. Only then did Aunt Liu let him go.

Li Manzi was also fooled by Xiangxue.

The buses at Luma University are not only free, but also self-driving and run 24 hours a day, with a frequency of 15 minutes.

Li Tao saw the car just leaving from afar and could only sigh and walk slowly towards the station.

At half past two the seaside was still pitch black, but the distant horizon seemed grey with just a hint of white.

Bathed in the sea breeze, Li Tao once again came to the sign of the station called Sea of ​​​​Time.

He squatted down, breathing heavily, and didn't mind the dirt, and leaned directly against the support pole of the bus stop sign.

"It's Sunday now, and I don't have any classes when the sun comes up, so I can catch up on some sleep. But Aunt Liu probably won't be working, so I won't be able to sleep well..."

Fortunately, Li Tao guessed that Aunt Liu was not asleep yet. When he got home later, he would hug Aunt Liu and rub her in his arms for a while, and Aunt Liu would definitely fall asleep obediently.

"Ding ~"

A message suddenly came on the phone.

Seeing the screen of his phone light up automatically, Li Tao was in no mood to unlock it. His instinct told him that this message in the middle of the night was not a good thing.

"Ding ~"

"Ding ~"

After it rang three times in a row, Li Tao sighed and had no choice but to unlock his phone and access the page to check the message.

"It's karma, retribution." Li Tao turned off his phone in agony, covering his face and crying.

The message turned out to be sent by Qiu Lan. She said that she would go to the flower shop to check in a week, and that the flowers she ordered would be delivered to the flower shop tomorrow.

She asked Li Tao to be there on time at 10 o'clock in the morning to take control of the situation.

"Isn't this sister awake in the middle of the night?"

Li Tao just lied to Aunt Liu that something happened in his flower shop, but it turned out to be true. It was just like when he pretended to be sick and didn't go to school as a child, in the end all the lies came true.

The bus arrived, and Li Tao was the only one in the empty carriage.

He yawned and sat in the seat closest to the exit door. While closing his eyes to rest, Li Tao also set an alarm for himself on his mobile phone, in case he missed his stop, which would be troublesome.

……

In the apartment, Li Manzi actually went to bed early.

Anyway, Li Tao lied to her that the flower shop was very busy and he couldn't go back tonight. At that time, Xiangxue was also very aroused by him and her body was in need of it, so she was bribed by Li Tao. She began to do some psychological preparation for Li Manzi.

To put it simply, she tricked Li Manzi into thinking that Li Tao would not be able to come back at night, and Liu Renna would definitely not be able to sleep at night. Then she would take the opportunity to catch up on some sleep, and in the morning she could seduce Li Tao with her charm.

As for Liu Renna, she was wearing blue and white silk pajamas at the time, and lying naked in the quilt everywhere else.

It has become Liu Renna's habit to sleep without clothes on.

She poked her little feet out of the quilt and swung them, saying with disdain, "I surrender, okay? I admire you so much. You're a little widow, you don't have anyone to relieve your sexual desires, so all your desires are piled up in your head, so you have so many dirty ideas, right?"

It was almost three o'clock in the morning and Liu Renna was only willing to talk to this woman besides Li Tao.

"I taught you so many ways to seduce men with all my heart, and all you call me in return is a filthy little widow?"

"I'm just being naughty at best, how can that be dirty?"

On the other end of the phone, Qin Keqing's breathing became slanted, and her nose was crooked because of Liu Inna's anger.

"Hmph~ You're so naughty and don't even realize it." Liu Inna said indifferently.

"Okay, I'm hanging up now. I won't chat with you anymore, damn!"

"Wait a moment! You are not allowed to hang up! Otherwise I won't let Li Tao sleep with you!"

Liu Renna was really afraid that Qin Keqing would die if she said so. After all, ever since she became her military advisor, she had become disrespectful and completely disregarded her status and position in the Xue Tu Gang.

"Hey, you bastard, I already told him to sleep with me, why are you threatening me with that?"

"You do not believe?"

There was a sound of grinding teeth on the other end of the phone. After a long while, Qin Keqing said viciously, "If you have any bullshit to say, just say it now, Liu Renna, don't think I'm easy to bully. I tell you, although I'm not at Luma University, I still have ways to disgust you."

"Oh, what do you mean?"

Liu Inna hooked her toes playfully, with a look of disdain on her face.

"Don't forget, my daughter is studying in college there. She's only 20 years old, her butt is so elastic and her skin is so tender. If she were given to Li Tao for free, I don't believe he would refuse her!"

"Fuck your ancestors, may heaven strike you with lightning, you stinky bitch are worse than pigs and dogs!" Liu Inna was so angry that she pushed the quilt away with her head.

She paced back and forth on the bed sheet, muttering, "I underestimated you, I really underestimated your conscience, you crazy woman with a wolf's heart and a dog's lungs!

"My daughter is as clean as me, just like ice cream, without any stray hairs. You know what that is..."

"I don't know and I don't want to know. Anyway, you are worse than a beast. I really underestimated you." Liu Inna shook her head. Her three views were refreshed by this widow.

"Stop talking nonsense. If you have something to say, just say it. Otherwise, I'll die."

"Alas, Yueru is so unlucky to have someone like you as her mother. Uh... this matter is not actually mine. It was my Baoer who asked me to help him investigate..."

Liu Renna told Qin Keqing about how the two of them were washed up on an isolated island and their bodies were found. She also described the strange pattern to Qin Keqing.

In fact, Qin Keqing knew more about the Reef Organization than Liu Renna. It was not that Liu Renna did not care about Li Tao's affairs.

But for so many years, she still had to raise the children and serve Li Tao every day, so she handed over the investigation of Li Tao's parents to Suzakutang.

Qin Keqing, the hall master, naturally has a deep understanding of it, not to mention that she is now fighting openly and secretly with the reef in the west.

"You shameless woman, you are so scheming, you even used the waves to blow your swimsuit away, tsk tsk tsk ~"

"Your focus is really obscene."

Liu Inna pouted. She guessed that Li Tao would be here soon, so she jumped off the bed and started looking for a top in the closet.

After all, there should be a sense of ritual when sleeping. Although the top will disappear when you wake up in the morning, there is a fundamental difference between what she took off and what Li Tao tore off.

"Tsk~ But I have some impression of the pattern on the soil you mentioned. I saw it here not long ago..."

"Is this a trace of the Reef Organization?"

"Well, it's a pity that the hotel burned down. Oh, and by the way, I recently figured out the hierarchy within the Reef..."

Simply put, this mysterious organization uses the size of playing cards to determine the ranking, and each deck of cards has diamonds, hearts, clubs, and spades.

Moreover, those who are truly considered the core figures of the organization have identities of more than ten, that is, twenty people in total with the five card sizes of J, Q, K, A, and 2.

Of course, in a deck of cards, there are also the big and small jokers above. The big and small jokers in the Reef Organization seem to have very special functions, and Qin Keqing cannot define them now.

And the muddy ground where Gao Yuying died was a kind of "declaration".

Liu Renna rubbed the purple bellyband in her hand and murmured, "King of Clubs?"

"It's most likely her. It's said that Plum Blossom K is very good at disguise, and her appearance spans a wide range. From a six or seven-year-old girl to an eighty-year-old woman who is about to die, there is evidence pointing to her disguise."

After a pause, Qin Keqing continued, "The ghostly symbols on the mud you mentioned do have a sacrificial meaning. If nothing unexpected happens, you may see a 'living' Gao Yuying in the near future."

K of Clubs has a habit. The people she disguises as are all those she has killed. Moreover, she is a madman with a strong sense of ritual.

She would control the owner of the face she needed, have her perform a ritual in a place where no one else could find her, and then let herself rot.
