262: Chapter 260: Ling Ye Disappears 262: Chapter 260: Ling Ye Disappears “Why!
Why did it turn out like this?” He punched the ground in agony, the skin on his knuckles rupturing and then healing back to normal within seconds.
Su Mo pursed her lips, “It’s true, I should have told you, and I was wrong for not doing so.”
But even if she had the chance to do it over, she still wouldn’t tell Jian Qing the truth.
It’s a logic that everyone understands, but Jian Qing would never comprehend, his eyes already tainted with hatred.
He lifted his head and staggeringly stood up, “You’re all in this together, I’m going to tell them!
I’m going to tell them!”
Just as he was about to rush out, a tranquilizer dart shot into his arm, taking effect rapidly, and within seconds, he collapsed back to the ground.
Hu Ding entered with soldiers, lifting the curtain, and imdiately several soldiers stepped forward to carry the unconscious Jian Qing away.
“Co with , Commander Jiang is looking for you,” he approached Lu Chen, his expression grave.
All Su Mo aid for was to draw Jiang Hai’s attention, and now that her goal had been reached, she looked at Lu Chen, “Let’s go.”
The man nodded, took Su Mo’s hand, and the four of them left.
At the entrance of the Second Ring, a large number of people had already gathered.
All those who had been injected with the dicine, the experintal subjects, were assembled, each with a clueless expression.
Li Qian tilted his head, his eyes scanning behind his glasses, and spoke softly, “The first batch of experintal subjects to enter the Second Ring has been assembled too?”
Hu Ding halted, his gaze deep, “One is missing.”
Su Mo’s pupils suddenly dilated, “Missing?!”
Hu Ding resud walking, a shadow falling across his stern face, “Not found yet.”
Su Mo inwardly cursed, still unable to prevent it.
She suddenly let go of Lu Chen’s hand and signaled him with her eyes, “You go to the Jiang Residence, I’ll go back and pack.”
Lu Chen understood her intent and whispered caution, “Be safe.”
Su Mo nodded, giving him a reassuring look, then after entering the Second Ring, Lu Chen went on alone with Hu Ding.
As Su Mo rushed toward the apartnt, she said to Li Qian, “Go inform Jin Han and Rong Bai.
Zhao Changsheng and I will pick up Ling Ye and Su Niang.
Tell them to pack and be ready to act on cue, City B might descend into chaos.”
Li Qian pushed his glasses up, slipping due to running, and parted ways with them at a crossroad.
Su Mo, along with Zhao Changsheng, sprinted towards the apartnt, and upon reaching Su Niang’s door, she caught her breath and knocked.
The door opened from inside, and Su Niang’s surprised eyes greeted them, “Why have you co?”
“Where’s Ling Ye?” Su Mo looked inside, finding only Huang Qi seated on the living room sofa.
Su Niang seed perplexed by her question, wringing her hands, she said in astonishnt, “Didn’t he go back?”
“Go back?” Zhao Changsheng pressed the door open further until it hit the wall with a bang, “We just got back, and he doesn’t have the keys, so where would he have gone?”
Hearing the commotion, Huang Qi imdiately stood up from the sofa, pulling Su Niang back a few steps, and explained to Su Mo, “Miss Su, a female friend of yours ca looking for you a while ago.
We saw her at your door when we returned,
since you weren’t there, she said Miss Zhao had sent her to fetch soone.
She seed to know you all well, so I let her take Ling Ye away.”
“What?!” Su Mo was taken aback, tinged with helplessness, “I have no female friends, and you just handed him over like that, Su Niang?”
Su Niang was already confused, her eyes quickly reddening, she stamred, “My son told she was an acquaintance of yours; I thought she was soone you t at the base, so I let Ling Ye go.”
Then, her body trembled slightly, “He’s missing?!”
It was obvious Huang Qi hadn’t anticipated, at such a critical ti, that a woman would kidnap a child.
His face grew somber too.
Supporting Su Niang, he said urgently, “Miss Su, that woman seed influential, dressed neatly and was with Xiaoqiao.
I let her take the person because I truly didn’t think you didn’t know her.”
Su Mo sighed and massaged her temples as she began to think quickly about who would be so idle to do such things.
If it wasn’t an acquaintance of Huang Qi and Su Niang, but a woman with so significant background, and soone who had a grudge against her…
After pondering for a mont, she could only co up with one answer,
“I’m going to find Lu Yuan.”
‘Who’s that?!’ Su Niang burst out, her expression agitated, “I’ll go with you!”
Su Mo stopped her, “Su Niang, pack your things and stay in the room.
I’m going to the Lu Family.
Lu Chen will be back soon.”
“What happened?” Huang Qi followed her out, his face uncertain as he saw her serious expression.
Su Mo simply said, “When Lu Chen returns, if I haven’t brought anyone back with , tell him to find at the Lu Family.”
“It’s all my fault,” Su Niang cried, beating her chest in regret.
Zhao Changsheng also looked alard upon hearing that Ling Ye’s disappearance could be related to Xiaoqiao and hurriedly pulled Su Mo to the elevator.
“Why would she do this?”
In the elevator, anger covered Zhao Changsheng’s beautiful face.
Su Mo pinched her cheek, “Let it go.
Whatever the motive, we have to bring the person back.”
After all, Ling Ye had been following them obediently and orderly; she owed it to him to save him.
Rembering the sight of Ling Fang dying in front of her, Su Mo’s eyes darkened.
Upon leaving the apartnt, she sped all the way to the Lu Family Mansion.
Using her superpower, she arrived there ahead of Zhao Changsheng.
At this ti, the Lu Family Mansion was guarded by a special person at the front gate, so Su Mo glanced at the two-ter-high surrounding wall.
She grabbed the wall with her hand, and with the Spiderman boost from Bok Choy still effective, hooks sprouted from her palms as she carefully infiltrated.
“The Outer Ring is in trouble now, where did that girl Lu Yuan go to cause trouble again!” Lu Youwei voiced angrily from the sofa in the living room.
“Could she have gone to our lab?
I just saw her not long ago,” Fang Ya said next to him, massaging his leg, her eyes full of worry.
Lu Youwei stood up from the sofa, furious, “There’s been no progress with that research; what’s she doing there!”
Fang Lian ca downstairs, speaking hesitantly, “Lu Jin seems to be there, too.”
Lu Youwei’s face grew stern as he struggled to contain his anger.
Deep down, there was still so resemblance between father and son.
Fang Ya stood up, speaking softly, “I’ve made so soup in the back kitchen to help you cool down; I’ll bring it over.”
She left the living room and went straight to the kitchen, where the windows were wide open, letting in the cold wind.
“Why is this window open?” Fang Ya wondered as she approached, about to close it.
A knife was suddenly pressed against the back of her neck, and Su Mo whispered from behind her, “Lady Fang.”
As the wind blew through the wide-open window once more, it raised the goosebumps on the back of Fang Ya’s neck, “Su…
Su Mo, how did you get in?!”
The Lu Family Mansion was under twenty-four-hour surveillance by Spiritual Ability Users; how had she sneaked in without a sound!
“Where is the Lu Family’s laboratory?”
