I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping Chapter 2345 - 1490: Gomenasai~

A moment of life and death.

Imagine yourself in that critical situation.

Would a call to the police cross your mind?

Most likely, no.

It's far more probable that you'd think of the person closest to you, or the one you trust the most.

Much like a child instinctively thinks of their father.

Or a wife thinks of her husband.

Therefore.

Can comrade Jiang Chen truly fault the other party?

Apparently not.

The very fact that they remembered to call him, what does this signify?

It indicates that in their mind, he has become the most important person.

Logically, this should evoke a sense of being touched.

This brings us to another question.

If Fujiwara Reiki cannot be blamed, does that mean he should bear responsibility?

That, too, is not the case.

How could he have known that the wolf would actually appear the second time? According to the fable, shouldn't it happen the third time, implying the next instance?

Time, regrettably, cannot be rewound.

Hence, there is no recourse for regret.

"Does your phone have any signal?"

Jiang Chen inquired urgently, although knowing the likelihood was slim, he still sought confirmation.

"No. They must have employed a jamming device, those blasted foreigners!"

To substantiate her claim, Fujiwara Reiki retrieved her phone from the ground. Despite the shattered screen, the disheartening signal bar remained visible in the upper right corner.

It's presumed she had attempted to contact the outside world, realized the absence of signal, and smashed the device in frustration.

"How do you know they are foreigners?"

"Because their unbearable body odor can be detected from a considerable distance!"

A peculiar question arises: why do both individuals possess such acute senses of smell?

"What is the current situation outside?"

Maintaining her composure, this Demoness exhibited remarkable calmness, fully aware of the gravity of their predicament.

"I didn’t anticipate this many people."

Was that intended as a sarcastic remark?

Fujiwara Reiki glanced at him, her expression unamused, and asked, "How many individuals did Jiang Sang bring along?"

"Four."

Upon hearing this, Fujiwara Reiki's eyebrows knitted together, finally revealing a trace of seriousness on the face of the stunning beauty.

"It's too few."

She emphasized her point by adding, "Those foreigners are all elite operatives."

Naturally.

For such a critical operation.

And one that involves crossing borders.

It would be highly improbable for them to dispatch inexperienced personnel.

Jiang Chen observed her expression closely, which caused Fujiwara Reiki to feel a flicker of unease.

"What is it?"

"Does this residence possess any secret passages?"

"..."

Fujiwara Reiki fell silent, her thoughts momentarily unreadable. After a brief pause, she responded, "If there were one, would Li Ji have waited until this moment?"

"You lack even this basic level of vigilance?"

Jiang Chen's tone carried a hint of reproach.

Fujiwara Reiki's eyes conveyed a sense of grievance. "Li Ji did consider it, but she felt that even if a secret passage were constructed, the city management would undoubtedly dismantle it. Therefore, she deemed it a waste of effort."

City management?

Could this be another ironic jest?

Jiang Chen's lips twitched slightly.

"Jiang Sang, what should we do now?"

Fujiwara Reiki inquired.

Jiang Chen inhaled deeply and stated with solemnity, "When I entered, I observed approximately twenty-one individuals outside. Based on your assessment, do my men, along with Sakura, stand any chance of breaking through?"

Boss Jiang's perceptiveness is truly commendable.

Amidst the haste and urgency of the situation, he still managed to take stock of the remaining enemy forces.

The ability to stealthily assemble a sizable contingent of dozens of individuals within the heart of Shen Zhou is no minor feat; it must have been preceded by meticulous planning and disguise.

"How did Jiang Sang manage to enter just now?"

Fujiwara Reiki posed a question, seemingly unrelated to Jiang Chen's inquiry but nonetheless critical.

It begs the question: had she heard no disturbance outside?

Was she completely oblivious to the world beyond the window?

What if it hadn't been Jiang Chen entering, and Sakura had betrayed their trust?

Such a hypothetical scenario seems rather futile.

Life does not accommodate 'what ifs'.

"By car."

"By car?"

Fujiwara Reiki's eyes lit up, as if struck by a brilliant idea. She then fixed her gaze intently on Jiang Chen, naturally pursuing the thought, "Then why aren't we driving out?"

An excellent question.

Jiang Chen seemed to exhale a prolonged breath before patiently explaining, "The ground is littered with nails; the car cannot proceed."

Fujiwara Reiki displayed an expression of regret.

"Are you absolutely certain there's no secret passage?"

Jiang Chen remained hesitant to abandon the possibility.

Fujiwara Reiki shook her head, sighing softly, "If Jiang Sang intends to break out, it will depend entirely on the skill level of your men.

"If they possess abilities comparable to Sakura's... then perhaps there might be a slim chance."

Comparable to Sakura's abilities?

While not yet on that level, considering Sakura is a prodigy ninja from Japan, if the Four Great Kings could be equated, then the overall prowess of Japanese Samurai would appear remarkably lacking.

Of course.

This assumes Fujiwara Reiki is not exaggerating.

But would she resort to exaggeration?

Yes.

However, not in this particular context.

Furthermore, Sakura's exceptional dart-throwing abilities are legendary, vividly recreating scenes from a classic martial arts drama of yesteryear.

It was the same pinpoint accuracy in her throws.

The only distinction? The television series featured flying daggers, not darts.

Noticing Jiang Chen’s silence, Fujiwara Reiki undoubtedly grasped his unspoken reply. Despite facing mortal danger, her mind remained sharp, logically assessing the situation: "Even if they don't match Sakura's skill, if they can reach half her level, they could attempt it."

Attempt?

How nonchalantly she spoke of it.

Could this Demoness truly know no fear?

Possessing a spirit of adventure is indeed commendable, yet it must be grounded in objective reality.

Sending someone who cannot swim to traverse the Yangtze River – is that called adventure?

No, that is a direct invitation to death.

Escaping and "giving it a shot" sounds straightforward enough.

However, life is irreversible; there are no second chances.

What if the attempt proves unsuccessful?

Then they would truly become like two butterflies – you and I, eternally intertwined, soaring together beyond this mortal realm~

It's true that in earlier times, many individuals took significant risks, and their current fortunes are a testament to the adage, "Fortune favors the bold."

But that was then, and this is now.

Ignorance and youth often breed the greatest courage in people.
