Chapter 2: One Step Too Late
s voice sounded behind her."What does it mean" Liu Jiayao was slightly taken aback, then fixed her gaze on the tombstone.Then, a shiver ran through him, his eyes widening with unspeakable terror, and...[ ]
Within the territory, Dongzhou neighboring city, Yun City, south of the city.
A license-less commercial vehicle drove out of an abandoned factory complex and sped off toward the suburbs.
In the commercial vehicle, besides the driver, there were three men with tattoos, as well as a little girl four or five years old.
The little girl at this time, her face was pale, her big eyes were filled with boundless fear, and her whole body trembled slightly.
"Lao San, what are you doing!" The man with the scar on his face looked at the bald man and said in a low voice.
"Look at this little girl, you don't even know she has a phone on her! "
"Boss, I'm sorry, it was my mistake!" the bald man quickly responded.
"I didn't expect her to be such a little brat, her mom even brought her a phone!"
"Be more careful next time!" the scarred man responded in a low voice.
"It's all thanks to us finding out early. Otherwise, if she had called someone over, we four brothers would be in big trouble!"
"Roger that, boss!" The bald man nodded vigorously.
"Boss, what kind of person would want this little girl The reward offered is so generous; it can't just be an ordinary person, right" Another man with a buzz cut chimed in.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't, just do your own thing!" the scarred man responded coldly.
A flash of deep fear crossed his eyes. His identity gave him a bone-chilling feeling.
"I'm just a little curious." the boy with the buzz cut replied, "Does our boss know why they arrested this girl"
"It's said that it's for another little girl's heart transplant!" The Scarred Man nodded slightly in response.
Yikes!
The short-haired man gasped, "Damn, that's ruthless! Isn't this little girl going to be dead"
What do you think The scarred man glanced at him.
"Alright!" the shaved-headed man shrugged.
"Lily won't die, Dad... Daddy will definitely come to save Lily..." Hearing the two people's conversation, the little girl cried out loud.
"Where is your father from" the bald man turned to look at the little girl and said.
You're a bastard, nobody even knows who your father is, not even your mother!
"Ruru is not a wild child, Ruru has a father…" The little girl continued to cry, "You... all of you bad people, I... my father will definitely not let you off!"
"Heh heh, even if you had a father, he probably died a long time ago. Otherwise, why wouldn't he have come to look for you all these years"
"Daddy isn't dead, he will definitely come to save Ruirui…" The little girl shook her head vigorously: "Daddy will definitely come…"
"When do you think your father will come save you Tomorrow The day after tomorrow" The bald man grinned.
"Unfortunately, you're having surgery tonight. After tonight, even if your father came, you wouldn't be able to see him!"
"No... No, Ruirui will definitely be able to see her father..." The little girl cried out loudly.
"Alright, stop messing with her!" The scarred man said in a low voice and then looked at the driver: "Fourth brother, find a place without surveillance to change cars and leave!"
"Roger that, boss!" the driver replied with a nod.
……
Oh!
At one o'clock in the afternoon, a military jeep pulled up to the entrance of an abandoned factory on the south side of Yun City.
Bang!
Before the car had fully come to a stop, Ling Hao, his body radiating killing intent, kicked open the car door and charged into the factory.
An hour ago, he and Lu Yue had just gotten off the plane at Dongzhou Military Airport when they received a message from Xuanwu.
Tell him that the phone number Ruo Ruo gave is not in Dongzhou, but in an industrial park on the outskirts of Yun Cheng, a city next to Dongzhou.
Therefore, the two of them drove a military jeep from Dongzhou at top speed and rushed to Yuncheng.
"Are you sure that Rourou's last message came from here" Ling Hao scanned his surroundings and looked at Lu Yue behind him.
The entire factory hall was empty, except for a few dilapidated sofas and some scrapped machinery.
"Confirm!" Lu Yue pointed emphatically. "The War Department's system pinpointed the location precisely, there can be no mistake!"
Ling Hao's brow furrowed, and he quickly walked to the door of a room on the inside. He raised his hand and waved it, and the entire door panel instantly shattered, wood chips flying everywhere.
Whew!
When he saw the pile of shattered phone parts on the ground, a surge of murderous intent erupted from Ling Hao once again.
It's obvious I'm late!
Lu Yue, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but shiver with a chill!
He knew that the city of Yun Cheng was about to experience a major earthquake!
Ling Shuai, enraged, fell and was scattered across ten thousand miles!
Only he knew best how terrifying his own military commander was.
Just the two characters "Ling Shuais" are enough to drive millions of passionate men crazy and inspire awe!
The arrival of a qilin from the heavens is a great fortune for the nation!
Three years ago, at only twenty-two years old, he became a legend in the camp, riding alone and leaving everyone behind!
Conquering ten enemies single-handedly and sweeping the top ten elite generals from the Ten Kingdoms, achieving legendary status in a single battle!
Ordered to hold the Western border, form the Blood Shadow Legion, and intimidate the surrounding nations, striking fear into the hearts of all villains!
Two years ago, he took on a new role, leading the mysterious domestic organization known as "Shadow Gate." He upholds justice and righteousness, punishing evildoers.
Prior to March, the enemy nation on the western front stirred up chaos, leading the Blood Shadow Squad straight to the heart of their operations, capturing the head of their commander. Out of a million enemy troops, only ten thousand remained!
"Check!" After gathering his aura, Ling Hao instructed in a low voice.
"Have someone coordinate with the Yun Cheng Police Station to check every suspicious vehicle that has entered or exited this area since I received the message from me to Ruirui!"
"Give them half an hour, I need to know the results!"
"Received!" Lu Yue nodded and took out his phone to make a call.
"When will the judge arrive" After Lu Yue hung up the phone, Ling Hao continued to ask.
The judge he spoke of was one of the Five Blades of Shadow Gate!
The Shadow Gate is divided into five districts based on geography, with each district overseen by a unique blade.
"When you called him, he was out on a mission. He said he'd be back as soon as possible and should arrive before evening, barring any unforeseen circumstances," Lu Yue responded.
"Mmm!" Ling Hao nodded slightly.
"Commander, where to now" Lu Yue asked as they got back in the car.
"Have someone locate Qin Yuxin. She might know who took Ruirui!" Ling Hao responded after a moment's thought.
"Good!" Lu Yue edited a message and sent it out.
Beep!
Five minutes later, Lu Yue's phone buzzed with a message notification. He picked it up and took a look.
"Commander, Qin Yuxin's location has been confirmed." Lu Yue looked at Ling Hao with a hesitant expression.
"Speak!" Ling Hao spoke in a deep voice.
"She is now at the Huanyu Hotel in Yun City," Lu Yue replied after taking a deep breath.
"Hmm!" Ling Hao turned his head to look at Lu Yue, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
Perhaps, she was just at the hotel for business. Lu Yue took another deep breath.
"Drive!" Ling Hao lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, his eyes were cold, and his face was grim.
Boom!
Lu leaped on the gas pedal, and the car shot forward. dripping down his spine.His fear stemmed from two sources. On one hand, it was the Judge's formidable skills. More importantly, he had seen the curved blade in the Judge's hand.Cold moon curved blade...
