Surprised, Qin Chu took his lighter from his pocket and handed it to her.

Then he never met her again.

It was not a big deal for him, but when he got home, he found his lighter was missing. It was a big brand lighter that Huo Mian gave to him as a birthday present when they were in high school; she had bought it with the money she earned by distributing flyers on weekends.

The picture on the surface of the lighter was an adorable penguin, Huo Mian’s favorite animal.

Qin Chu had used it for years and never wanted to part with it even though he had changed the flint several times.

As he got frustrated from losing the lighter, he found a strange lighter with the picture of a skull in his pocket.

At first, he didn’t know what the symbol meant until Rick saw it and said it looked familiar.

They researched it and found it was the symbol of Doomsday Death God.

Rich had joked that maybe the woman Qin Chu helped that night was a maniac fan of the Doomsday Death God; obsessed with the organization, she had coined it.

But Qin Chu felt it wasn’t that simple since he didn’t know when his lighter got switched.

The lighter had been in his pocket and someone needed to be extremely fast to switch it without his notice.

So, he had kept the lighter for years.

When Ian came, he had shown him the lighter and was convinced of its authenticity through Ian’s expression.

Qin Chu had never told anyone about it until now when he found this mysterious organization was their enemy.

He had meant to keep silent about it since he was sad about losing the lighter that Huo Mian gave him.

Hearing the whole story, Lu Yan went silent.

After a long while, she raised her head and looked at Qin Chu, saying slowly, “Brother-in-law, I feel… that woman approached you on purpose, which is why she left the lighter to you.”

“Yeah. I think so, too.”

“Do you remember any details?”

“No. I only remember her eyes looked like Mian’s.”

Qin Chu recalled the night several years ago but found the details had turned fuzzy.

But he was sure that if not for her eyes which looked like Huo Mian’s, he’d never have helped her.

“It seems it’s part of a set up.” The situation was so tricky that Lu Yan felt her head ache.

Their enemy was Doomsday Death God, and she didn’t know what their enemy would do next.

They were totally in the dark; how could they proceed with the battle?

“Do they want the thing from the professor?” Qin Chu asked.

“It’s possible; but we know nothing for certain. Brother-in-law, give me the location of my sister and I’ll get her out.

Lu Yan was worried about Huo Mian who was about to be in labor, so she was impatient to go.

“Yan, if it’s a set up, you’ll only walk into their trap. Maybe their real purpose is you and Mian.”

“I don’t care. No matter what, I can’t let my sister stay in that place.”

“Here’s the plan. We’ll set out in two teams. I’ve devised a map… We’ll enter the jungle from two directions to split their attention.”

“Okay. I’ll go get my plane ready.”

With a grim expression, Lu Yan walked out.

Seeing her walk out, An went over bashfully.

“Queen Yan… Here’s your roast sweet potato…”

Carefully, An took out from his pocket the roast sweet potato which was still warm.
