Anyway, the RV has a washing machine and a dryer, so you can wash whenever you want.
Gu Ran went to cook. She had already thrown away the pot of food from lunch when she was on the dirt road, worried that it might bring back bad memories for her.
He glanced at the map and saw a small town ahead, so he went straight there, found a hotel to stay in, ate at the restaurant, and resupplyed his RV.
"Aren't we in a hurry to get going?" Su Xiaoqiang asked.
She remembered clearly that her birthday was the day after tomorrow.
"We need to travel, but we have enough time to eat and sleep along the way," Gu Ran said. "However, we have to get up at five o'clock tomorrow, so we'll have more time."
"So where are we going? Can't you tell me?" Su Xiaoqiang pleaded again.
"It's a secret, you'll find out when the time comes!"
Su Xiaoqiang made a fuss for a while, but Gu Ran didn't give in, and she got used to it.
But then she suddenly remembered something and asked, "You still haven't told me how you cleaned up the mess, and what about the last person who was still alive? What... did you do with them?"
Gu Ran stared into her eyes: "Do you really want to know?"
"Yes."
"Okay, I'll tell you slowly."
*……*……*
After being controlled by Gu Ran's Sharingan, Stephen Jean felt as if his mind and body had been separated.
A spirit took control of his body, causing him to act like a walking corpse.
"Come on, let's dig a hole." Gu Ran's shadow clone tossed a shovel to Stephen. The shovel was on the motorcycle that the group had brought. Since they were traveling in the wild, they had brought two folding shovels and two folding toilets to make it easier to dig holes and poop in the wild.
Stephen was given orders to begin digging a pit deep in the woods.
Soon, Gu Ran's shadow clone brought over the three drug dealers' corpses.
The other shadow clone used fire release to burn the bloodstains, cleaning them up completely.
Actually, these were all drug dealers, and it wouldn't matter if they were discovered. It's just that Gu Ran was too lazy to provoke the FBI and didn't want them to trace it back to Su Xiaoqiang, so he destroyed the body to avoid unnecessary trouble.
This place is in the middle of nowhere, and by the time the body is found, who knows when. Even if the body is found later, it doesn't matter, because without evidence, the FBI will have no way to investigate.
Stephen was mentally controlled by Gu Ran and dug a hole with all his might, but because it had rained on the ground, digging the hole was really difficult. His muscles were already sore, but he didn't make much progress.
Seeing this, Gu Ran's shadow clone had no choice but to use its tools to help as well.
He had enough chakra at this time, so the Shadow Clone Technique could create more Shadow Clone Techniques. With six Shadow Clone Techniques digging the pit together, the efficiency was greatly improved, and a large pit two meters deep was quickly dug.
After digging the pit, Stephen began throwing his companions' bodies into it.
His consciousness was still struggling, praying that Gu Ran would release him, but he was controlled and couldn't utter a single word.
After throwing the body away, Stephen's body involuntarily jumped into the pit as well.
Then, he picked up his Indian companion's pistol, slowly raised his hand, and pointed it at his chin.
"No, no, I don't want to die!" His inner consciousness screamed and cried out, but his body was completely out of his control.
The gun was pointed at the trachea, and Stephen's finger, uncontrollably, pulled the trigger...
A gunshot rang out, a line of blood spurted out, and Stephen ended his sinful life.
Gu Ran's shadow clone watched expressionlessly, and after he died, it began to jump to the ground and fill the pit with soil.
The guns used by the group were also buried in the pit. When the FBI later discovered the bodies, they were able to deduce that the group were drug dealers who had committed crimes by comparing the pinwheel lines on the guns.
As for the spent cartridge cases and bullets fired from Su Xiaoqiang's gun, Gu Ran collected them and melted them directly with fire jutsu.
After filling the pit, the shadow clones rode away on the four motorcycles in the opposite direction, intending to find an open space, erase the engine and chassis numbers, and then burn the motorcycles to the ground.
In this way, these traces were cleaned up.
Finally, using a shadow clone technique, he transformed into one of the wanted criminals, deliberately showing himself in a distant location with surveillance cameras.
This way, there will be no chance of anything going wrong, and the FBI and American law enforcement will have no way of finding anything on Su Xiaoqiang and Gu Ran.
*……*……*
The next morning, at five o'clock, Gu Ran pulled Su Xiaoqiang out of bed and they set off.
Su Xiaoqiang was grumpy when she woke up and refused to get up. Gu Ran tried to coax her by scratching her and kissing her, and it took a long time to get her to listen.
As the RV drove along the road, Gu Ran sped at the maximum speed limit on the highway, while Su Xiaoqiang sat in the passenger seat, watching the scenery rushing past on both sides.
"If you're sleepy, you can go to bed and take a nap," Gu Ran said to Su Xiaoqiang.
Su Xiaoqiang didn't care at first, but after sitting in the car for a long time, she got a little sleepy and fell asleep in the passenger seat.
When she woke up, it was almost eleven o'clock.
At that moment, Gu Ran also stopped the car.
Su Xiaoqiang slightly opened her eyes and saw Gu Ran kiss her on the forehead.
"Awake, Sleeping Beauty?"
Su Xiaoqiang looked around and realized that this seemed to be an open-air parking lot in the wild, without any designated parking lines.
However, the sun is very strong outside.
"Are we there yet? Where is this?"
Gu Ran bent down to help her unbuckle her seatbelt, then took out a black eye mask: "Here, put this on."
"What's going on?" Su Xiaoqiang looked at him questioningly, but didn't put on the blindfold. "Why are you blindfolded?"
"I heard it's more exciting to be blindfolded!"
"You rascal, telling dirty jokes again!" Su Xiaoqiang was amused by him, knowing she couldn't win against him. "Were you blindfolded in the car?"
“Yes!” Seeing that she agreed, Gu Ran helped her put the blindfold on and then carried her on his back. “I won’t let you take it off. You can’t take it off.”
"Okay, okay!" Su Xiaoqiang agreed, wrapping her arms around his neck, indicating that she would not take off her blindfold unless he gave the order.
Because she was so excited, Gu Ran hadn't taken two steps when she heard Su Xiaoqiang ask from her back, "Are you done yet?"
"No, wait a little longer."
"Done yet!"
"hold on."
"Done yet!"
"Are you a child? Can't you even wait two minutes?"
Today, Su Xiaoqiang wore a white long dress and a pair of low-heeled sandals with ankle straps. Her two long legs swayed back and forth, looking both joyful and expectant.
"Not yet?"
"OK OK."
Gu Ran then put Su Xiaoqiang down, stood beside her, and said, "Come on, slowly open your eyes. The sun is a bit strong today."
The blindfold was removed, and Su Xiaoqiang squinted before slowly opening her eyes.
Once her eyes adjusted to the light, what came into her view was a sea of yellow flowers.
"This is... a sunflower!"
At this moment, she was on a small hill, below which was a vast sea of sunflowers. As far as the eye could see, the entire hillside and plain below were covered with sunflowers, stretching endlessly to the horizon!
These sunflowers are a special variety, with huge petals; each flower is over thirty centimeters in diameter.
Su Xiaoqiang is currently standing with her back to the sun, while the sunflower petals are blooming towards her, like flower fairies smiling at her.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Su Xiaoqiang was stunned. It was a cloudy day, but the sky was blue, the sun wasn't very strong, and the sunlight came in bursts, making the light abundant and clear.
The yellow sunflowers reflected in the blue sky are absolutely beautiful!
This location was clearly handpicked by Gu Ran; all the sunflowers are facing this spot.
"So beautiful!" Su Xiaoqiang looked at the sunflowers, reluctant to look away. She wanted to grab Gu Ran beside her, but after waving her arms twice, she couldn't touch him.
"Gu Ran?"
Su Xiaoqiang looked around and realized her boyfriend was gone. She subconsciously turned around and suddenly saw him kneeling on one knee, holding a box and a sunflower, looking at her.
She paused for a moment, then noticed the ring on the jewelry box and immediately understood her boyfriend's intention.
"...You are my sun, and I want to be your sunflower, looking only at you for the rest of my life." Gu Ran held up the ring box. "Xiao Qiang, will you marry me?"
He had actually prepared a long speech in his mind, but when it came to the words, he only remembered the last sentence.
Su Xiaoqiang was somewhat surprised. She first covered her mouth and laughed, but as she laughed, she suddenly burst into tears of emotion.
"Okay, I'll marry you!"
She nodded emphatically, then grabbed the ring box without even looking at it and immediately put it on.
"Hey, you've put it on backwards, backwards!" Gu Ran said, laughing and crying at the same time. He helped her adjust the ring and slowly slipped it onto her left ring finger.
Su Xiaoqiang looked at her slender fingers and then realized that it was a gold and white metal ring, seemingly made of intertwined gold and platinum.
The ring was very thin, fitting perfectly on her slender, fair fingers, and further accentuating her beautiful, snow-white hands.
"It's beautiful, and I love the ring too!" Su Xiaoqiang said, laughing and crying at the same time, her heart pounding with excitement.
Chapter 272 Flower Field Mistake
Gu Ran stood up, wiped away the tears on Su Xiaoqiang's face, then hugged her and kissed her passionately.
Ten minutes later, the two sat side by side under the shade of a large tree on the hillside, looking down at the sunflowers covering the hillside.
The tree is very tall, and its shade covers part of the flower field not far away.
"I thought you weren't going to propose." Su Xiaoqiang leaned on Gu Ran's shoulder.
She had previously thought that since they were about to get engaged, it didn't matter whether he proposed or not, so she didn't expect him to propose.
"What others have, you should have too." Gu Ran smiled and hugged her. Su Xiaoqiang smiled, pursed her lips, raised her head slightly, and kissed him.
She suddenly laughed and said, "Speaking of which, when you knelt down on one knee just now, I felt really awkward for a moment..."
"Ah... now that I think about it, it is indeed a little embarrassing..." Gu Ran covered his forehead and gave an awkward bitter smile, "How chuunibyou! I had no experience the first time, I will never do this again!"
