Chapter 228: Chapter 223 Hypnotism Skill Activation

The face under the mask ca into view, a very mature man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a sturdy physique, except his skills left much to be desired.

Ji Tian furrowed her eyebrows, glanced around, and after confirming the man’s location, she squatted in front of him and gave him a couple of hefty slaps, “Wake up.”

However, she had been too heavy-handed, and the man had already passed out. Ji Tian was imdiately faced with a dilemma; she didn’t have much ti to waste here.

“And this is the boss of Hei City A3 District? So weak, might as well let take over.” She stood up, flipped back the hood of her raincoat, stretched lazily, and shook all the tools out of her toolbox, preparing to find a place to fill a bucket with water to splash the man awake.

Second floor of the iron staircase.

Qin Jiangsheng watched her leaving figure, his hand holding the gun trembling.

Why… was it Ji Tian?

Why was she the one who knew Hei City’s secrets?

His back pressed against the wall, Qin Jiangsheng finally pocketed the gun, reassuring himself that it was just a resemblance from behind. Ji Tian was still in the competition; how could she possibly be in this place?

So he took out his phone, stared at the contact pinned at the top for a while, before finally dialing out.

Ji Tian carried water inside when her phone rang, startling her so much that she almost threw down her toolbox. She quickly silenced it and, seeing it was a call from Qin Jiangsheng, hesitated before clearing her throat and answering, “Hello?”

Perhaps because her voice was too hollow, she grabbed the microphone tighter, “Did you call for sothing?”

Qin Jiangsheng heard her voice; their distance was nothing more than one upstairs and one downstairs.

“Eh? Why aren’t you saying anything? Is your phone broken?”

“Where are you?” It took a mont for him to find his voice again, his gaze blankly fixed on a shattered glass window on one side.

“I’m in the competition, you know. I made it to the finals, first place, even beat Shen Zhiyi.”

Ji Tian simply waited in place and added, “Do you need sothing?”

“No,” his voice was sowhat hoarse, “Do well in the competition.”

Having said that, he hung up the phone.

Ji Tian frowned, looking at her phone and muttered, “Odd, I’ve got to drag out the person behind Hei City!”

Qin Jiangsheng’s hand hung powerlessly at his side. The waters of Hei City were too murky, and just when he thought of extracting himself, Ji Tian barged in at this very mont.

Suddenly, he didn’t care if she discovered Hei City’s secrets, or if she knew of his dark past years. All he wanted was to know if, with his age and ager ability, he could protect her from Mo Jiu.

Listening to the noise downstairs, the Hei City replacent he had called was already awakened by her, and at the mont, was being interrogated about Li Hongjin’s whereabouts.

His eyes suddenly grew sharp; he couldn’t let Mo Jiu know of her existence.

Continuing upstairs, he climbed out of the opposite side of the second floor.

Tang Yu was anxious, having heard gunshots from inside, he was a bit afraid that Qin Jiangsheng was hurt. Only when he saw him safely erge did he let out a sigh of relief, “Boss, how did it go? Did you catch the person?”

Qin Jiangsheng glanced at him, his tea-colored eyes indifferent, “No, wasn’t there.”

“Huh? How is that possible, let help you with the location again.”

“No need, Tang Yu.”

“Boss… it was an accident, next ti I’ll be more accurate.”

He suddenly looked up, seriously saying, “I told you, no need. She’s not here, let’s end this. You’ll get the reward as promised, don’t interfere anymore.”

“Let’s go, head back.”

Tang Yu held back his words, only resigning himself to be the driver when he saw him sit in the passenger seat, “Alright, alright, you’re the boss, what you say goes.”

“How will you explain this to your side?”

“I’ll say, you don’t have to look for her anymore, Tang Yu, pretend she’s dead.”

He didn’t tell Tang Yu that he had called in a replacent ambush.

These replacents were all trained, even in death their lips sealed tight. Let’s leave it at that, not delve deeper. The matter of Li Hongjin was too complicated; Mo Jiu seed to have a grand plan.

Not only did he want the Tokens of the Four Ancient Martial Families, he also wanted the renowned Divine Doctor and the Boundless Water.

Qin Jiangsheng felt unease growing inside him.

He also guessed at his plan.

He must be seeking to defy nature and bring the dead back to life, but he was dood to fail. It was an impossibility, yet it had beco his obsession.

One Token was in hand, three remained.

The Divine Doctor and the Boundless Water.

Even fools could guess his intentions.

Qin Jiangsheng was afraid that Mo Jiu would act crazily without regard for anything and harm Ji Tian, so to protect her, he definitely couldn’t let Mo Jiu know of Ji Tian’s existence.

He opened his laptop in the car and personally started to cover up the traces Ji Tian had exposed, erasing any trail of her existence in Hei City’s information system.

After everything was taken care of, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Holding his cellphone, he replied to Mo Jiu: “The person has been dealt with.”

Mo Jiu didn’t reply to him.

With the person dealt with and their information deleted, Qin Jiangsheng assud Mo Jiu wouldn’t pursue anything further…

After all, Mo Jiu was soone who only cared about the results, not the process.

…

Abandoned chemical plant

Ji Tian woke the man up with a bucket of cold water.

The man jolted awake, sat up, and then realized he was tightly bound, with the person in front of him wearing loose clothes, revealing only a pair of eyes.

“What, what do you want to do?”

Ji Tian squatted in front of him, pressing a stick against his throat, her voice indifferent: “Where is Li Hongjin?”

As she spoke, she jabbed the stick at his Adam’s apple, making it difficult for him to breathe. Once Ji Tian eased the pressure, he took a deep breath and said fiercely, “I don’t know, even if you kill , I won’t know the whereabouts of Li Hongjin.”

Ji Tian narrowed her eyes slightly; although his tone was harsh, there was panic and guilt deep in his eyes, which proved he was lying.

But he was tough-mouthed and probably couldn’t be pryed open even with torture. Ji Tian was a civilized person, and it was a society governed by law. She wouldn’t do anything illegal or harmful.

After thinking for a bit, she snorted lightly, “I have plenty of ways to make you talk.”

The man defiantly stared at her, his lips pressed tight, indicating his stance.

“King of Competition, I want to use the hypnotism skill,” Ji Tian called out to the King of Competition in her mind.

The King of Competition’s voice appeared: “Is the Host sure? This ‘hypnotism’ can only be used once; once it’s used, it’s gone.”

“Sure!”

“Beep, hypnotism skill activated, wishing the Host a pleasant experience,” the King of Competition’s voice said and then disappeared.

Ji Tian’s eyes locked on the man: “Look at .”

The man subconsciously t her gaze, and it seed like there were whirlpools within his mind, his consciousness beginning to dissipate, leaving him looking quite dazed.

Seeing it was enough, Ji Tian started to ask, “Where is Li Hongjin?”

The man’s mouth opened and closed several tis before he slowly spoke, “Hei City A3 District… basent…”

“Which basent?”

“I don’t know…”

Ji Tian furrowed her brows and continued asking, “Who is the boss of Hei City?”

“Mr. Mo Jiu…”

Mo Jiu?

This was the first ti Ji Tian heard this na, it was unfamiliar, and she recalled the plot she had seen. Perhaps it was a marginal character; there wasn’t much description of him, so she had no usable information.

After finishing her questioning, Ji Tian wrapped up: “Forget about this incident today, forget .”

The man fainted to the ground, and Ji Tian couldn’t be bothered with him anymore.

She felt relieved that Li Hongjin was still alive. Now, she needed to find the basent where he was being held, and it seed she could only rely on the police.

anwhile, in Hei City.

Mo Jiu looked at the policen who were searching around his place with their badges, and smiled gently, “Comrade policeman, I’ve been running the lumber business in Hei City for many years without tax evasion or breaking any laws. I’m a law-abiding good citizen. You say I kidnapped soone, where’s the evidence?”

The lead policeman placed his badge in front of him: “This is evidence left at the scene. Whether the person was kidnapped by you is uncertain, but we have an investigation to perform, please let us proceed.”

Mo Jiu chuckled lightly, “No problem, I will cooperate fully. May I know who reported the case? I would like to et them personally to clarify things.”

The identity of the reporter wasn’t supposed to be a secret. They had searched around Hei City for a long ti to no avail, but whether they should et or not, they had to follow Ji Tian’s wishes.

As they were packing up to leave, the lead policeman finally said, “We’ll ask if they agree to a eting. If they do, we’ll call to inform you, and then both of you can co to the police station.”

Mo Jiu’s smile grew deeper, a cold glint in his eyes, “I really can’t wait to et them. You know, I hate misunderstandings the most, I need to make things clear…”
