Chapter 297: 297 Captured alive, torture the dregs [1 more update] Chapter 297: 297 Captured alive, torture the dregs [1 more update] Chris’s plan was simple: to have Ye Wanlan die under the wheels of a car was the best approach.
She had already studied the surrounding terrain and various surveillance devices to ensure her face would not appear on cara.
That way, the agents from Bureau 723 wouldn’t be able to catch her.
Once she got back to the Global Center, no one could touch her.
How far could Bureau 723’s reach extend? Could it reach into the Global Center?
However, reality and ideals often diverge.
Chris was certain that she had exerted full strength, yet she did not push the girl over; instead, she watched the girl carry on walking with her suitcase.
An illusion?
She had taken drugs to enhance her physique, so ordinary people, especially a frail young girl like Ye Wanlan, should have no chance to resist at all.
But in just a mont, Ye Wanlan had disappeared into the crowd.
A perfect opportunity had slipped away just like that.
“The situation has changed,” Chris tapped her earpiece and spoke solemnly, “I need flight KS2379 delayed. Yes, from Yunjing to Jiangcheng. You’ll need to have one of the passengers get off the plane when the ti cos, um, her na is Ye Wanlan, she’s the person the boss wants, no mistakes allowed.”
**
Yunjing Airport, T3 Terminal.
Chris followed Ye Wanlan into the departure lounge, wearing a mask and pulling her hat low to ensure she would not be discovered by Ye Wanlan.
There was a decent crowd in the departure lounge, and as the boarding announcent sounded, the passengers queued orderly at the ticket check.
Chris tapped her earpiece again: “She’s boarded. Get ready, she cannot be allowed to leave by plane.”
After issuing the order, she left the departure lounge and waited in the entry passage.
Soone would bring Ye Wanlan to her when the ti ca.
Since she couldn’t arrange for Ye Wanlan to be killed in a car accident, the fastest ans had to be used—
To kill her, then fake it as an accidental death.
“Attention passengers of flight KS2379, due to unforeseen reasons, the plane is unable to take off for the ti being,” the announcent blared again, “Please stay calm and patient. Passenger sitting in seat 38F, please follow the staff to disembark for an inspection.”
As these words were spoken, all the passengers’ eyes focused on Ye Wanlan, and whispers began to spread.
“She doesn’t have a bomb on her, does she? Trying to hijack the plane, but got caught in advance?”
“Have you been watching too many movies? Do you think the airport security is a joke?”
Ye Wanlan remained calm, as if she had expected this to happen. She picked up her bag and followed two staff mbers off the plane, then was led to the entry passage.
One of the staff mbers said, “Hello, Miss Ye, please go straight ahead, soone will et you.”
In fact, even the two staff mbers were clueless, not understanding what was happening; they had just received orders from their superiors and executed them.
At last!
Chris’s eyes flickered, and as Ye Wanlan approached the end of the exit passageway, she reached out a hand and grasped her shoulder.
The girl’s shoulder felt soft and boneless, clearly a physique with no power.
“I’m sorry, Miss Ye,” Chris sighed, “I did not want to hurt you, but negotiations between us have broken down, and soone wants you dead.”
Before Ye Wanlan died, Chris wanted her to know why.
“Professor Chris Ramsay, I am curious, what made you so sure that you could take on alone?” Ye Wanlan slowly turned her head, “Boldness and bravery? Or did you not even bother to investigate ?”
Chris’s expression changed drastically, her pupils dilating with fear in an instant.
But before she could react, a sharp pain spread from her neck, her vision went dark, and she passed out.
Ye Wanlan kicked at Chris to ensure she wasn’t pretending to be unconscious: “You can co out now.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Yan Tingfeng and Xiang Shaoyu appeared from around another corner.
“Caught her?” Xiang Shaoyu stepped forward, eyeing Chris sprawled on the ground, and frowned, “She doesn’t seem very smart, how did she beco the associate professor of the physics departnt at Shenzhou University?”
“She was under the impression that I was just a high school senior with poor physical fitness,” Ye Wanlan said indifferently, “Add to that the several flaws I revealed on purpose in front of her, her vigilance was further lowered.”
“Hmm, Xiao Wan accurately calculated her inner thoughts, so it went smoothly,” Yan Tingfeng also said, “Otherwise, if she sensed sothing was wrong, she would have run straight back to the Global Center, and then we wouldn’t have been able to capture her alive.”
“I wonder if it’s the sa place that kidnapped my uncle last ti,” Xiang Shaoyu’s expression cooled, “Bring her back first and interrogate her thoroughly.”
Thinking you can leave Shenzhou’s territory unscathed?
What a daydream in broad daylight.
Soon, a silent guard from the Xiang Family appeared and took Chris away.
Under Xiang Shaoyu’s arrangent, the flight took off smoothly, but he frowned all the ti without relaxation.
Seeing his confusion and worries, Ye Wanlan gave a slight nod, “She must have hacked into the flight system earlier. I have patched the system vulnerabilities. Rest assured, such an incident will definitely not happen again.”
“Thank you, Miss Ye,” Xiang Shaoyu’s brows finally relaxed, “Indeed, I was worried that if they could change the flight commands, more people would suffer in the future.”
Last year, a plane crashed over the ocean, and its wreckage hasn’t been found to this day.
Xiang Shaoyu suspected that they used similar thods to take control of the entire plane and its passengers.
If they didn’t have the proper preventive asures, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Therefore, Chris must not be allowed to return to the Global Center!
**
After an indeterminate amount of ti, Chris slowly regained consciousness.
The pain in her neck persisted as if a cleaver was repeatedly hacking into her flesh.
She rembered!
It was Ye Wanlan who had knocked her out cold with her hand as a blade.
How could a young girl possess such strength?!
Chris had indeed not looked closely into Ye Wanlan. Now, as she finally realized the serious misconception she was under while being tied to a chair.
Footsteps echoed, and the door to the dark room opened.
“Hmm, you’re awake.” A voice dropped from above Chris’s head, “Speak, who do you pledge allegiance to?”
Enduring severe pain, Chris struggled to lift her head, her voice trembling, “You are… more than just a high school student.”
“If I really were just a high school student, you would have dumped my body in the wilderness by now,” Ye Wanlan sat down opposite her, “On this journey, there were three tis you wanted to kill , and you took each opportunity.”
Chris’s pupils constricted sharply.
She had never expected Ye Wanlan to know everything.
In an instant, she realized, “You did it on purpose earlier!”
“I did it on purpose,” Ye Wanlan said indifferently, “Otherwise, how would I have caught you alive? But I was also assured that with your will, you wouldn’t commit suicide by taking poison.”
Hearing this, Chris’s forehead broke out in a cold sweat.
She had a formal occupation, an associate professor in the Physics Departnt at Shenzhou University, a civilian staff mber.
Although she had so skills, she wasn’t like those trained to be fanatically loyal to the death, who would hide poison in their teeth.
“No wonder you were so eager to get to the Global Center. Once I actually entered the Global Center with you, your people would have taken control of ,” Ye Wanlan raised her eyebrows lightly, “Not to ntion myself, you too are just a pawn being controlled, aren’t you?”
Chris took a deep breath, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
She seed calm on the surface, but her mind was in complete disarray.
She had planned to return to the Global Center imdiately after completing her boss’s task, but now she had been imprisoned!
What should she do?
“Your aim is to kill talents in various fields,” Ye Wanlan spoke evenly, “unless they serve your purposes. After I refused to go to the Global Center with you, you received orders to kill .”
Chris said coldly, “What’s so bad about that? You could enter the International Strategic Studies Institute and Wanguo Group right after graduation. Without the boss’s introduction, you’d never make it in your entire life!”
As for who she was working for and what impact it might have?
Chris couldn’t comprehend Ye Wanlan’s actions at all.
Isn’t life all about securing one’s own future?
She could give up anything and anyone to reach her goals.
“International Strategic Studies Institute? Wanguo Group?” Ye Wanlan smiled slightly, “Whom do you want to recomnd to work under? Yeh Xingli, or Estelle Rubinstein?”
Yeh Xingli, a Class S researcher at the International Strategic Studies Institute.
Estelle Rubinstein, the Chief CTO of Wanguo Group.
