# Chapter 490: No, You Can't
Early the next morning, Jiangnan got up and stretched, a brilliant smile spreading across his face!
Today's New Year's Eve! It's the New Year!
Speaking of which, he slept so well last night, didn't he?
It's been a long time since he had such a good sleep!
But the next moment, Jiangnan was stunned!
A long string of resentment values had scrolled through the list!
Who is Kojima Rokka?
With deep confusion, Jiangnan opened the door!
He saw Wu Liang, Xiong Er, Xia Yao, and Zhong Yingxue all covering their noses and standing at the entrance of the Hell Gate!
"Wow~ How pitiful! Spitting foam, and still hasn't taken off the mask!"
"Is this a thief? Looks like someone touched our stuff. This thief is really unlucky!"
"Ugh... Won't they get suffocated? They've been marinated in hell all night!"
"Should be alive! Still twitching!"
Jiangnan stared in shock at the person collapsed on the floor!
Could this be that Kojima Rokka?
From the Sakura Group? Came to the house to steal the key?
I told you not to open it, and you still opened it?
Isn't this too miserable?
Then a smile curved at the corner of his mouth: "Go about your business! I'll handle this!"
With that, he went straight into the room and locked the door!
Zhong Yingxue and the others were stunned, not expecting something like this to happen on New Year's Eve!
Jiangnan grabbed Rokka's antenna hair, pulling her up completely, put spirit-binding handcuffs on her, and searched her again!
All he found was a phone!
Rokka woke up groggily, pulled awake by the pain!
"Mmm~ Huh? Bleh! Bleh~ Let me go! Let me go!"
Hung in mid-air, Rokka struggled and retched, eyes rolling back in her head!
Damn it, she shouldn't have come in! What kind of room was this? It stank to death!
She would never recklessly predict again!
The fragrance in the room was fatal to Rokka, but to Jiangnan, he had already opened a space wormhole and an oxygen tank, so no problem!
"Come clean! Or I'll kill you, got it?"
Rokka panicked: "Don't force me to make a move! I'm telling you, I still have a trump card!"
"Once I release my true eye, you definitely won't be able to handle it! You'd better early—bleh!"
Jiangnan rolled his eyes and glanced at the medical eye patch Rokka was wearing!
What kind of true eye? Since when could a stye be used as a trump card?
You've already been handcuffed!
"Not talking? Then stay here then~"
With that, he dropped Rokka, casually made a spatial barrier cage, and locked her inside!
Then he was about to walk out!
Rokka panicked! Staying in this room any longer would kill her!
She didn't even know what was on her body, something yellowish! Bleh~
The rumors outside were right; this guy was indeed a devil!
[Resentment from Kojima Rokka +1000!]
[From...]
"I'll talk! I'll say everything! Bleh~"
Rokka rubbed her eyes, nearly vomiting out her guts!
Jiangnan smiled brightly: "The key? What thing's key?"
Rokka: "It's the key to the American incantation analysis data!"
"The American Bose body escaped, taking the incantation analysis data they'd studied for years!"
"Now many forces from various countries are hunting the Bose body in the American Metropolis, trying to grab the data!"
"But without the key, even if they get the data, they can't open it. I was sent by Sakura-chan to steal the key!"
"What else do you want to know? Ask quickly, quickly! I can't take it anymore!"
Jiangnan was stunned. He had heard Sister Shanmiao mention this before!
He didn't expect it had escalated to this level. Katerina's White Shark was also involved?
Jiangnan asked: "Where's Katerina? Is she still alive? Where's Qian Benying?"
Rokka said urgently: "Katerina is still alive! Sakura-chan is in Room 503 of the Royal Hotel in the American Metropolis!"
"Bleh~ Just knock me unconscious! It stinks to death!"
[From Kojima...]
Sakura-chan! Forgive me!
My spirit didn't betray you, but my body really couldn't take it anymore!
Jiangnan frowned. This was more complicated than he thought!
He picked up Rokka's phone, found Sakura-chan in the contacts, and called her directly!
At that moment, in Room 503 of the Royal Hotel in the Metropolis!
Qian Benying was soaking in the bathtub, humming a tune, in a pretty good mood!
The phone suddenly rang. Seeing it was Rokka, her eyes lit up!
"Rokka-chan? How's it going? Found the key?"
Jiangnan: "I'm not Rokka-chan! I'm Pixian Douban Sauce!"
Qian Benying: ???
A man's voice?
[Resentment from Qian Benying +1000!]
[From...]
Pixian Douban Sauce? What kind of sauce is that?
Is it Jiangnan Sauce?
"Jiangnan? Where's Rokka? You'd better not have killed her. If you kill her, I'll kill Katerina!"
Jiangnan's eyes widened: "If you kill Katerina, I'll crush the key! Then nobody gets to play!"
Qian Benying: !!!
"If you dare crush the key, I'll kill her!"
Jiangnan: "If you dare kill her, I'll... Isn't this pointless for both of us?"
[Resentment from Qian Benying +1000!]
"Then what do you suggest? I want the key! If I don't see the key, I'll kill the person!"
Jiangnan smiled brightly: "What's the use of saying that? We both have chips!"
"You understand my ulterior motives, and I understand your feigned restraint!"
"I'll give you the key! You give me the person!"
Qian Benying narrowed her eyes: "Fine! Then give the key to Rokka, and I'll release the person!"
Jiangnan snorted: "I don't know if you're ugly or not, but you sure think beautifully! I have two chips, you only have one!"
"I'll personally deliver the key to you! You personally hand the person over to me!"
Qian Benying suddenly stood up from the bathtub: "I'm not ugly! You release Rokka first! If you want to play it safe, you need to show some sincerity!"
Jiangnan laughed: "Alright! Order a sirloin steak for Katerina right now! Medium-well, plus some pasta. Take a photo and send it to me, then I'll release the person!"
Qian Benying was stunned: "Jiangnan, are you serious?"
Jiangnan: "Order it! The beautiful lady is always hungry. Don't play tricks. If I see she's lost weight, I'll pull out Rokka's antenna hair!"
Rokka quickly covered her head, terrified!
Devil! You're a devil!
Qian Benying gritted her teeth: "Pixian Douban Sauce! You just wait!"
Then she hung up the phone!
Three minutes later, Katerina stared blankly at the sirloin steak and pasta on the table!
"This... what's this for?"
Qian Benying said angrily: "Pixian Douban Sauce ordered it for you! Said you get hungry easily! Eat up, get a little fatter, then I'll trade you for the key!"
Katerina looked at the steak and pasta, her eyes reddening, big teardrops falling onto the steak!
She wiped them with the back of her hand, but couldn't wipe them clean!
˚‧º·(˚˃̣̣̥᷄﹏ก̀)‧º·˚
"Boo hoo~ Boo hoo! Hoo~"
Qian Benying took a photo and sent it to Jiangnan!
Jiangnan looked at the photo of Katerina looking haggard, wiping her tears, and smiled gently!
"What are you crying about? You're a grown-up!"
Then he grabbed Rokka's antenna hair and threw her out the window!
"Go, go, go! Next time, pay attention to the warning signs and don't go in! You were lucky you met me. If you'd met a bad guy, who knows what would've happened!"
Rokka looked at Jiangnan with grief and indignation, glaring fiercely at him!
You're worse than a bad guy, you know?
Bleh~ What's on her body? It stinks to death!
Jiangnan took a photo of her indignant expression and sent it to Qian Benying!
Seeing the photo of the indignant Rokka, Qian Benying also breathed a sigh of relief!
"I'm only giving you 48 hours! You'd better not play any tricks with me!"
"Don't think too highly of yourself! What you can do, I can also do! What you can't do, I can still do!"
Jiangnan: "No, you can't! I can pee standing up! Can you?"
Qian Benying: ???
[Resentment from Qian Benying +1000!]
Can you just talk properly?
That's not what I meant! I was warning you that I'm also a space user, and stronger than you!
Who's competing with you about that?
Qian Benying gritted her teeth: "I could try to stand too! I can have a baby! Can you?"
Jiangnan snorted: "Sure! Isn't it just having a baby? Like I don't know how!"
With a little pudding, I can do whatever needs to be done!
I've got all sorts of skills! Am I playing around?
[Resentment from Qian Benying +1000!]
"Fine, fine, fine! You're awesome! You can even have a baby! No wonder you're Pixian Douban Sauce!"
"Smack!"
Qian Benying slammed down the phone in anger!
Just you wait! I'll see you not being able to give birth!
Jiangnan snorted, then scratched his head and called Sister Shanmiao!
"Hey? Sister Shanmiao, Happy New Year!"
Sister Shanmiao tilted her head, holding the phone with her cheek, frantically flipping through files!
"Mm-hmm! Happy New Year to Little Nan too!"
"By the way, I'm going to the American Metropolis to take a walk. Just letting you know!"
Sister Shanmiao: Pfft ꉂꉂ(˃᷄ε˂᷅|||)
[Resentment from Luo Tianhong +666!]
"Hey? Sister Shanmiao, are you still there? Hey?"
