Chapter 342: Chapter 342

Ono Eishi’s face ached, but he dared not move an inch.

He didn’t want to admit that he had been deceived by Su Siming, but it seemed, indeed, that he had been.

The furious Matsumoto Mina instilled fear in Ono Eishi. With a THUD, he knelt down.

"Miss Meina, I’m sorry! I truly didn’t know about this! I thought... in any case, it’s all my fault. I’ll accept any punishment you give me!"

"Punish you?" Matsumoto Mina reached out and pinched his chin, forcing him to look up at her. "What’s the use? Can you bring back Dong Xuelian?"

Ono Eishi fell silent.

If An Yan and the others really didn’t have Snow Green Grass, they would surely use Dong Xuelian as medicine immediately, right? How could it be left there waiting for him to reclaim it?

"I’m sorry, Miss Meina. From now on, I will never act on my own initiative again.

"I will only obey your commands and do whatever you ask to make amends. Please don’t let my mistake ruin your health."

Matsumoto Mina’s expression gradually softened.

"Fine, I have a task for you! This time you must complete it without fail!"

Matsumoto Mina took out a glass bottle containing three hibernating mosquitoes.

"Release these mosquitoes into Miss An Yan’s team’s room, and you must ensure they bite someone! Can you do it?" Updates are released by novelꞁire.net

Ono Eishi reached out and took the bottle.

"I will do everything possible to complete the task! Please rest assured, Miss Meina!"

Matsumoto Mina had sent Ono Eishi to do this because Wada Sakurako’s condition had improved, and those fungi had lost their activity, making it impossible to spread the infection any further.

However, the mosquito that Zhang Zhilan had killed had already transmitted the fungi to her.

Zhang Zhilan’s symptoms could appear at any moment.

If only Zhang Zhilan was infected, An Yan would easily suspect the mosquito. But Matsumoto Mina was unwilling to let An Yan turn her suspicions towards the mosquito from that day. She wanted An Yan to be completely ignorant of the situation, thrown into disarray by her own teammate’s infection.

Then, it would be Inoue Kawaetsu’s turn to make a move. Watanabe Isorou would suffer an outbreak as well, and with a bunch of sick people to deal with, An Yan would surely be overwhelmed! By that time, not to mention plotting any petty schemes to disgust Matsumoto Mina, An Yan wouldn’t even be able to save herself.

Matsumoto Mina, thinking about this, laughed again.

It was as if she could already envision the moment An Yan was killed by the entity inside Watanabe Isorou!

To ensure the success of Ono Eishi’s mission this time, Matsumoto Mina decided to set up another Feng Shui formation. This time, she planned to set it up in the woods outside. Matsumoto Mina had already investigated and found that underneath the woods lay a graveyard.

If she could channel the Yin energy from there into the hall and add a layer of protection to their own area, An Yan’s side would be plagued by misfortune from the invading Yin energy.

Ono Eishi happened to run into Miss Yan An coming out of the room opposite. This time, instead of heading out, he started a conversation with Miss Yan An in the public area.

"What is Ono Eishi up to this time?"

Upon seeing this, Su Siming immediately put down what he was doing and was about to go out.

But then Zhang Zhilan said, "You’re just a meat bun; are you preparing to fight a dog with it?"

Zhang Zhilan was right. Ever since he’d taken Dong Xuelian from Ono Eishi, that guy had buzzed around him like a bee to honey whenever he saw him. So, going outside was out of the question; Su Siming just kept an eye on them through the window. If that guy dared to harm Miss Yan An, he would charge out and kick him right in the face! The charge would be that this sissy was harassing Miss Yan An! If it escalated to the committee, he had a just cause for his actions!

Thinking this way, Su Siming not only became less anxious, but he also started to look forward to something happening. He hoped Ono Eishi would hurry up and do something. But the other party actually pretended to be a gentleman, just talking without laying a finger on her! It was enough to drive someone crazy.

"... Miss Yan An, what do you think?"

Yan An watched the video on Ono Eishi’s phone. With a cigarette in hand and a hesitant face, Su Siming beseeched Ono Eishi, even hugging him excitedly after Ono Eishi agreed to give him the Dong Xuelian. Then he quickly stepped back, insisting he had no intentions towards Ono Eishi and told him not to get the wrong idea.

The thing was, if his acting had been good, then she wouldn’t have said a word. But could Su Siming’s performance even be called acting? It was almost like he had written on his face, "I’m tricking you for your medicine, just give it to me, and then I’ll get what I want..." It was unbearable to watch!

"What do you want?" Yan An wrote.

Ono Eishi took back his phone. "Nothing much. I just want Miss Yan An to keep me company and chat. If you can make me happy, I’ll delete the video!"

"Why should I pacify you? Su Siming isn’t anything to me."

"In that case, I will release the video right now and let everyone see what Su Siming is really like! Whether his tarnished image affects your contest has nothing to do with me, especially since the Miss Yan An I care about most doesn’t seem to care."

Yan An felt as if she were being threatened. A look of irritation crossed her beautiful face.

"How can you do this?"

"Shameless!" Yan An cursed silently.

But although she cursed, her feet remained still.

Ono Eishi breathed a sigh of relief. "Miss Yan An, is there anything you’d like to talk about? How about we discuss your research on DNA editing? I’m very interested!"

Yan An paused for a few seconds, then wrote on her phone, "I no longer work in that field! Since you want to talk, why don’t you tell me your story?"

"Sure!" Ono Eishi nodded.

"I was born in a small town. My father was a sailor who set out to sea one time and never returned.

"My mother approached my father’s company, and they said the ship had lost contact. My mother refused to accept it and made a scene every day! The company couldn’t take it anymore and eventually gave her some money to get rid of her.

"After receiving the money, she took me to live somewhere else. We lived well for a while with that money, but soon, it was all swindled away.

"Debt collectors came to our door, smashing things! We had no choice but to move again.

"This time, we moved to a bustling place, and the new house my mother found was huge and lavishly decorated.

"I thought we had money again and that we could live in such a beautiful house, but to my surprise, she wanted to use me to make money.

"Men, women, old, young, all sorts of people came... They wanted me to dance and sing.

"I was treated like a toy, poked and prodded; they even stripped off my clothes!

"My mother said as long as I stayed still and let them touch me, they would give me money. We needed that money to survive..."

Yan An’s eyes widened. If his story was true, Ono Eishi’s childhood sounded truly miserable.

But soon, Ono Eishi’s story took a wild turn!
