Odutra snapped awake.
Even though he was under the Banshee’s Charm, the immense pain in his head made him cry out crazily.
The brain-eating insect was summoned by magic, so it could be controlled. In other words, Chen Zhao could control it.
If it ate all of Odutra’s brain, then it would attract attention too easily. But if it only ate a little, but was enough to be fatal, it would be impossible to detect. After all, even a forensic scientist wouldn’t cut open his brain if there were no outer injuries.
Odutra screamed. Outside, Caprice heard him and pushed the door open.
Seeing the struggling Odutra, she asked, “Chen, what did you do to him?”
“I didn’t do anything. I didn’t even touch him.” Chen Zhao shrugged helplessly. “Is he pretending?”
Caprice considered this. She wasn’t sure if Chen Zhao was speaking the truth or not, but Odutra didn’t have any injuries. Chen Zhao temporarily slowed down the brain-eating insect, making it stop for now.
Odutra felt the pain subside. He raised his head with difficulty. “What did you do to me? What exactly did you do?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Chen Zhao turned around. “Caprice, lead me out of here.”
“Just like that?” Caprice asked.
“What else?”
Caprice and Chen Zhao walked out of the cell. Odutra’s painful wails sounded once again.
“Chen, did you really not do anything to him?”
Chen Zhao turned to glance at Caprice. “If I leave and he dies in his cell, there’ll be no problems, right?”
“You didn’t leave any evidence, right?” Caprice asked.
Clearly, Caprice was already thinking of a solution. If Chen Zhao really left something behind, she would help remove it.
“No. There’s definitely no evidence. I didn’t even touch him.”
“Good. That’s best.”
Chen Zhao left the prison and got into a taxi. Along the way, he got Caprice’s call.
“Chen, he’s dead.”
“Oh.”
…
“Sir, your item has arrived. Would you like to come to check?”
Risfar put down the documents in his hands. He’d shipped an RV from Europe. Hearing that it had arrived, he decided to check.
Twenty minutes, he arrived at a high-class RV retail. This store was under Lora’s name. The RV that he’d shipped over this time was under the store’s name.
As soon as he entered, he saw a familiar man—Chen Zhao.
“Chen, why are you here?”
“Oh?” Chen Zhao asked, a bit surprised. “Johnny, you’re here to buy an RV too?”
“Uh…yeah.” Risfar chuckled while waving at the salesman beside Chen Zhao. “I’ll accompany Chen. You can go.”
Seeing how obedient the salesman was, Chen Zhao asked, “You’re familiar with this store?”
“Pretty familiar.” Risfar nodded. “What kind of car are you looking for? What price range?”
“Under $300,000 and a bigger model. I like bringing my kids when I go out.”
“Where’s your Ford SUV?”
“It broke. I tossed it.”
Risfar’s eyes flashed. From what he knew, Chen Zhao wasn’t the type that would just toss away a $20,000 car. Even if he sold it, he should still get a few thousand dollars.
“What do you think about that car? It’s pretty big inside.” Risfar pointed at the car up ahead. “It’s $18,000.”
“That’s practically a bus. I don’t want to drive a bus around.”
“What about that car? It’s a British Knight V12, classic model, sold for $210,000.”
“It looks like a small truck. That’s too weird.”
Risfar thought for a moment and said to his assistant, “Take Chen and me to the garage.”
There were even more RV models in the garage. However, most were trucks or buses. After all, they were easier to modify. The cheapest cars were only around $100,000. The expensive end was truly expensive.
Risfar pointed at the innermost RV. “What do you think of that EleMMent Palazzo?”
Chen Zhao’s eyes brightened. This RV’s model was quite unique. It had a huge circular disc in the front. It was milky white with two levels.
The driver’s seat was behind the disc. The hood had slanted corners. The whole thing looked really futuristic.
“Can I look inside?”
“Of course.”
Chen Zhao was tempted because the car was truly beautiful. He was most worried about the cost. It looked more expensive than the others.
Inside the car, Chen Zhao discovered that the interior design was abnormally fancy too. The space inside was about 40 square meters.
It was practically a moving castle. There was even a 15-meter-long bar on the second floor. Other than the counter and fridge, the bar also had three more than 50-inch-wide LCD TVs in a row. There was a soft sofa and a few chairs on the other side.
The lower level had a bedroom, a functional bathroom, and a dining room
The space could also be extended a dozen square meters mechanically. It couldn’t be extended while driving though. The car’s shape suddenly changing may cause fatal traffic problems.
This car basically had the most appliances. It used the most modern technology to show what luxury meant.
Chen Zhao and Risfar walked down the automatically-extended steps. Chen Zhao looked back longingly.
“This must be a few million, right?”
“The market price is around one million dollars,” Risfar said. “But I shipped this over myself, so it’s only $500,000 at most.”
“Five hundred thousand dollars?” Chen Zhao was tempted.
Risfar’s assistant glanced at him. Others might not know, but he definitely did.
This RV named EleMMent Palazzo was the most luxurious RV in the world. It was produced by Austrian carmaker Marchi Mobile. Its retail price was $3,200,000. Adding in the shipping and custom fees, it cost Risfar $3,500,000 to transport it from Austria.
“What do you think? If you want it, it’s yours.”
“You shipped it over. That means you want it, right?”
“I shipped it over to sell it,” Risfar said, smiling.
“It’s really only $500,000?”
“Of course.”
“Okay, I want it,” Chen Zhao finally decided.
It was over his budget, but this car wasn’t only for everyday traveling. If he and Fali went on vacation, it could be a good shelter too.
Even if they went out for a field trip, this could provide a great convenience.
