Chapter 512: Chapter 512: Furnace (17)_1 Chapter 512: Chapter 512: Furnace (17)_1 “`
The sudden cough that rang out was strikingly powerful on such a night.
Not only did Joseph freeze mid-motion while taking off his pants, but Daniel beside him also momentarily stiffened.
The next moment, both of them realized what was happening and simultaneously looked toward the source of the noise, only to see a figure.
“Carry on, don’t mind me.”
Meeting their gazes, Fu Qian made a casual hand gesture, signaling them to continue.
How could they possibly continue!
Never in a million years did Joseph expect an audience outside, he almost jumped up, letting out an animal-like roar from his throat.
It seemed he recognized Fu Qian, but he was clearly confused about the situation.
And under such intense and successive stimuli, he was on the verge of fainting.
“It’s you…”
Daniel also growled softly at this moment.
Fu Qian’s face clearly triggered some unpleasant memories for him.
Of course, his presence here at this moment was obviously an even worse situation.
The next moment, Daniel seemed to realize something as he looked down at Medea on the ground, his voice growing increasingly through gritted teeth.
“You still say you aren’t in cahoots.”
“Fu Qian?”
Medea on the ground was clearly bewildered, she hadn’t recognized Fu Qian at first, but finally came to with the sound of his voice, filled with a mix of surprise and joy.
However, following Daniel’s words, she became confused once more.
“What do you mean, ‘in cahoots’?”
“Our classmate Daniel here seems to believe that we colluded to set him up.”
Facing her confusion, Fu Qian succinctly explained the situation.
“How is that possible!”
Medea found the suggestion utterly preposterous and instinctively retorted.
But then she quickly realized something and looked up sharply at Daniel.
“Is this why you wanted to kill me?”
“You… are completely unreasonable!”
“I hate it the most when people threaten me.”
Feeling Medea’s anger, Daniel looked as though he had a bit of a guilty conscience but still said with a sneer.
Fu Qian could understand this very well.
During the day, under the pressure of the situation, Daniel had begged for mercy, and after going back, he obviously came to his senses and entered a state of infuriated embarrassment.
Thus desperately in need of an outlet for his emotions.
So whether it was really a setup or not didn’t matter at all!
The chances were, if Medea was dead, the next one would have been himself.
And from what Daniel had just said, one could tell that his family had substantial influence in this area and could manipulate many things.
Too bad, even if just for the sake of SAN Points, there was no way he would let him get his wish.
“So what do you really want? To come in and take this woman away?”
At this point, Daniel obviously also recognized the difficulty of the situation and immediately spoke to Fu Qian, even subtly hinting at him to come in.
“How could I? I just finished dinner and came out for a walk, you guys do as you please.”
However, Fu Qian was in no hurry at all, just standing leisurely outside, without moving a foot.
He was very clear that as long as he stood there, the murder inside the classroom wouldn’t happen.
Even if Daniel wanted to do it, Joseph would definitely stop him.
Medea by this time had already struggled to her feet and was moving towards the window.
Joseph was obviously in a great hurry, subconsciously wanting to move forward to grab her, but then hesitated on the spot.
“`
“What do you think she is?”
Daniel had of course noticed Medea’s actions, but he didn’t stop her, instead, he sneered at Fu Qian over and over again.
“This woman is nothing but a complete whore!”
After saying this, he took an envelope out of his pocket, stepped forward, pushed open the window, and threw it to Fu Qian.
“Take a good look, every person in there has been a lover of your teacher Medea.”
Huh?
Fu Qian took the envelope, squeezed it first, then casually pulled out a photo, confirming his guess.
In the envelope were Medea’s private collection that he had seen before, locked in a drawer.
“Where did you get this?”
Medea’s eyes widened in shock.
“You don’t have to act like someone whose feelings have been cheated.”
Fu Qian, unable to understand Medea’s shouting, looked at Daniel with a face full of disdain.
“You stole this to use it after killing somebody, didn’t you?”
He certainly didn’t believe that Daniel in front of him would be simple enough to have his feelings deceived.
His relationship with Medea was purely transactional.
The reason he had stolen Medea’s private collection was clear—to reveal her ‘true face’ after she had eloped with a student.
Of course, the reason he brought it out now was probably because he was unclear about his own relationship with Medea and wanted to see if it could affect Fu Qian’s emotions.
It would be best if Fu Qian stormed out in anger; then there would still be room for manipulation.
Unfortunately, people’s joys and sorrows are not communicated, I am merciless in my missions.
Fu Qian glanced at Medea through the window, who now had a deathly pale face and appeared to be severely shocked.
“There’s a saying, ‘Lust is but a knife hanging over one’s head!'”
Fu Qian sighed deeply, looking enlightened, and casually stuffed the envelope back.
Medea subconsciously took it back, her gaze vacant, seemingly unsure how to react.
“Great!”
Not only Medea was confused; since a while ago, Daniel had been staring at Fu Qian, but unfortunately, his response made him despair.
Even though he couldn’t determine the relationship between him and Medea, it was obvious that Fu Qian didn’t mind what was in the envelope.
And from his actions just now, he obviously wanted to save Medea.
He had thought about dealing with her together, but given his previous encounters, he knew Daniel was very skilled, and now with him being on the outside, if he wanted to escape, Fu Qian definitely wouldn’t be able to handle him.
But the problem was, letting him walk away was something Daniel couldn’t accept either.
Given Medea’s nature, having walked the line of death once, she would certainly not let things rest.
“Grab her and don’t let go, or we’ll both be done for.”
The next moment, Daniel gave a signal with his eyes, indicating Joseph to step forward and take control of Medea.
The latter trembled and instantly woke up as if from a dream.
And after understanding Daniel’s words, he realized the gravity of his situation.
The next moment, Joseph displayed astonishing agility, rushing forward and pinning down Medea, who was trying to climb out the window to escape.
Click!
Just then, another flash appeared in the classroom, enveloping the struggling pair.
“What are you doing?”
Joseph, who had come to his senses, looked incredulously at Daniel, holding the camera, and couldn’t help but growl softly.
Unfortunately, the answer to his question was the crisp sound of a neck snapping.
“You can leave now.”
Holding Joseph’s body, Daniel slowly laid it down on the ground and stared at Medea as he spoke.
