《After Divorcing, She Shocked The World (1)》Chapter 73: Nearly Exposed
Advertisement
"Be careful."
The next day when Wu Mei woke up, Li Nanchen had already left. He had left a few words on her palm using her lipstick.
She immediately wiped away the traces with water and picked up her shirt. She deliberately revealed the provocative marks on her shoulders. Then, she walked out of the room.
Due to the exceptionally realistic and intense "patron-reception process", the Clubhouse manager got rid of his surveillance on Wu Mei. She took this opportunity to contact Li Nanchen while the guests were drunk. She found out from him that with the help of the wiretap, they had successfully captured a few fixed clients of the drug lords!
Based on their testimony, the Ministry of Defense took out a few small suppliers and further closed in on the drug dealers.
Wu Mei hid the communicator for receiving and sending out information. She became more on guard.. The more critical the situation, the more she needed to remain calm!
"Have you noticed? There seems to be much fewer patrons recently! Many of my regular patrons aren't coming anymore!"
"Yeah! Furthermore, the manager's face is so gloomy every day. It's scary! Is our Clubhouse about to close down?"
In the lounge, a few ladies were chatting.
Wu Mei had also noticed the change that they mentioned in their conversation. The atmosphere in the Clubhouse was becoming more and more solemn. The security and the number of bodyguards at the entrances and exits were strengthened. All the guests had to be examined thoroughly before they could enter.
"I heard that the Boss got someone to serve the 19th floor yesterday. When that girl came back, she was half dead..."
"It's terrible. I heard that there's not a single good spot left on her body and her eyes were extremely dull! I was so scared that I had a nightmare at night!"

As she eavesdropped on their conversation, Wu Mei snapped the lipstick in her hand.
People can enter the 19th floor now? Something big must have happened!
"Wu Mei, Wei Long can't come today," Mamasan told her as she pushed the door open.
Behind the office door, the manager's furious voice could be heard. He hurled the few vases on the desk onto the ground, shattering them into pieces.
Looks like Li Nanchen and the others are making good progress. Wei Long has been captured.
At this thought, Wu Mei acted upset as she took off her earring and threw it in the jewelry box in front of her. She cursed in a bossy and unhappy manner, "They're all heartless men. They said that they'll visit me every week. If he doesn't come, how am I going to earn money?"
"There aren't many patrons this month!" She looked into the mirror and stole a glance at Mamasan's expression. However, she felt relieved on the inside.
The next moment, the manager came out of the office and stared at Wu Mei gloomily. He said, "Come to the 19th floor tonight to serve the patrons. Don't miss this chance to earn money!"
Under the sympathetic gazes of the ladies, Wu Mei's heart skipped a beat. This is not a good sign!
On the 19th floor, Wu Mei had hidden all her weapons in advance. When Wu Mei and the manager arrived at the elevator, countless bodyguards surrounded Wu Mei. She pretended to be surprised as she asked, "What is this for? Didn't you say I was going to receive patrons? There are so many people! I can't do it..."
"Cut the crap. Conduct the body search."
The manager ignored her. The bodyguards checked all the places where she could hide her things before nodding.

After being screened by multiple scanning equipment and infrared equipment, Wu Mei finally stood in front of the mysterious door. The manager knocked on the door thrice and led Wu Mei in.
In the room that looked like a KTV room, the blood-red sofa occupied the most prominent position. A man protected by four to five bodyguards turned around and looked at Wu Mei with a dark and sinister smile.
The man looked to be about 40 years old. His narrow eyes made one feel uncomfortable!
He is the boss behind the scenes, the real drug lord!
Wu Mei was certain of that almost instantly. She heard the manager say, "Boss Kun Sha, I've brought someone here for you!"
"Okay."
Kun Sha stroked his chin with interest and waved his hand. The bodyguards surrounded Wu Mei and suddenly swung their fists at her abdomen!
Wu Mei cried out in alarm, but she couldn't retaliate. She could only dodge in order to avoid any vital parts. She screamed hysterically, "Why! I'm here to receive patrons. You can't do this..."
She quickly pretended to be exhausted and collapsed onto the ground. She looked up at Kun Sha.
Kun Sha walked up to her and hooked his finger under her chin. "Is there nothing you want to say?" he asked in a hoarse voice.
"It would be a pity if I were to cut up such a beautiful face."
"Think it through. If you tell me everything now, I might let you live..."
Wu Mei's eyes shone with fear as she hugged Kun Sha's arm and shook her head frantically. She said, "What are you talking about? I came here to earn money. I don't want to die! I can serve patrons very well. Believe me..."
She pretended to have a mental breakdown and tried to bluff her way out.
Almost at the same time, the manager carried in the pot of flowers from the corridor and removed the wiretap that had been installed at the bottom.
"Boss, we found it! It's this thing! This is what caused so many of our brothers to die!"

The Isekai Police (aka "Earth's Advocates")
When evil kings summon kids from Earth to be used and abused as fast-leveling soldiers in their petty wars, the Isekai Police will be there to stop them. A group of ex-isekai protagonists in their own right, they utilize their collective skills to fight for the end of summoning abuse. Artyom Choi, cynical ex-hero and founding member of the organization, is sent to investigate the presence of an Earther on an innocently idyllic World where no summoning has supposedly taken place. His mission: rescue the Earther and figure out how he got there. Dark secrets lie beneath the surface of paradise, however. Will he be able to find this new hero and get out before whatever malicious forces brought them there doom them both? Book 1 has been finished! You can read Book 2 here in parallel or even before Book 1 if you want more TOAL than Artyom! https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/47708/the-isekai-police-hero-summonings-are-overrated This story is meant to be a deconstruction of the isekai genre that references and sometimes pokes fun at various tropes. Artyom isn’t some kid whose goal is to amass Levels or a harem. In fact, all he cares about is protecting other Earthers, and won’t let anything like that get in the way! So expect to see: -A mature main character who still has some flaws. -Character development over the course of the story. -No harems! (see last point) -A vibrant world full of interesting people, deep culture, and mysterious lore that gets uncovered as the story goes on. -Plenty of funny moments along the way! -The presence of a few cliched tropes and stereotypes only for the sake of poking fun at them. So step in, take the first leap, and uncover the next hot take on this expansive genre! My discord here: https://discord.gg/Zc8CHSrxVr

Horizon
Emiluna is about to turn 16 and gain access to her first two classes. Living in a small village in the middle of nowhere, she always wanted to become a Hunter. Having learned a bit under her parents, a miller and a seamstress, she was sure she could never pick a class that meant staying inside all day. But being a Hunter is more than just a class. It means providing meat for the village, culling small pests near the cultivated fields and most importantly guarding the village from predators and monsters. But Emiluna is not a normal girl and her destiny far bigger than she could have ever imagined.Join her as she finds out what awaits just behind the horizon.[Word from the author]I am looking to create a fantasy world that has some logic to it and stays believable even as characters gain power and progress in levels.Classes and level quantify the people's progress, but they do not artificially inflate their power to demi-god levels. I am primarily trying to write a captivating story, not "power-porn". That means it will be slower than the fast burning litRPG you might be used to, but it won't burn out that quickly either and I won't drop half of my plots at the wayside. I should mention that English is not my native language. I hope it is mostly unnoticeable, but sometimes I manage to slip some awkard sentence structure in there (German sometimes puts things together in reverse).It it also my first time writing an actual fantasy novel and the first time writing anything at length in English. Any constructive feedback is very welcome.Credit where credit is due: Cover picture by Paul Bica (Licensed under CC 2.0)Check out his amazing photos here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/dexxusYes, my cover picture is a photo, not a drawing. :D I might try my hand at some Paint-ification later to add the title.[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
