Doctor Zhou still had not realized what was going on. But deep inside her mind, she started to feel unsettled.
Behind her, Liao Youde stopped walking. He placed both hands inside his pocket as if he was searching for something.
After rummaging around his pocket, his face turned pale. He whispered something to a man following him, and then turned around, heading back to the public health center.
“Let’s go, Auntie,” said Ye Jian with a subtle smile on her face. Pitch-black eyes looking forward, she seemed rather calm with no traces of fear. “Just treat me as your daughter Jiaxin who wants to walk around with you.”
Chunyang Grand Hotel was not too far away from the towns.h.i.+p public health center. After a big bend, they could see the Chunyang Grand Hotel at the corner of the street from afar.
Suddenly, the lights in the hotel were extinguished. Ye Jian was clearly aware that the man walking behind her quickened his steps, but soon, he steadied his pace again.
Not only did the Chunyang Grand Hotel experience a blackout, but the entire town had an outage.
Chunyang Grand Hotel, a two-story individual building, facing the road in the front and the farmlands in the back, adjacent to no other construction on its left or right side.
If the army wanted to enter the hotel covertly to catch the suspects, they must extinguish all the lights in the entire town to avoid suspicion.
“Hurry up!” the strange man urged them in a low voice. The blackout throughout the town made him nervous as well.
Without a word, Doctor Zhou, carrying a medical kit and holding tightly to Ye Jian’s hand, started to trot. She was seeking an opportunity to let Ye Jian run away.
Nevertheless, Ye Jian started to hum, relaxed and comfortable, as if she was going for a walk on a summer night.
