Chapter 131: Caught (2/2)

Suyang gave his cell phone to Xialing. Then, the car continued. After driving through the darkness for a long time, we finally came to a stop.

“I followed the map that Yuxiang gave us. I’m surprised it led us back to here.” Xialing walked out first to check the area. Then, Suyang and I came out as well. We silently entered the secret passageway.

“Yuxiang, where are you? We’ve arrive.” Xialing whispered into the phone.

“I’m here.” Yuxiang appeared like a ghost behind us. Suyang and Xialing held their breaths. I was so shocked that I completely fell down on the ground.

“Uh...the f-floor is too slippery….” I smacked the floor. I couldn’t think of an explanation. Suyang lift my collar and pulled me up.

“Where did Anson put Grandmother Meng?”

Yuxiang shook her head and lightly replied, “He locked Grandmother Meng somewhere else. Other people are watching her now.”

“Then hurry and take us there! Wasn’t this what we wanted to do in the first place? We have to stop him from committing more crimes! Xialing anxiously yelped.

“Xialing….” Huaze Yuxiang hesitated, “I’m sorry.”

“Why are you sorry?!? If you don’t want to go, just hand me the map. I can drive there on my own.”

“You guys aren’t going anywhere.” The Anson version of “Lin Yixin” appeared behind Huaze Yuxiang.

Xialing realized she was betrayed, “You….!”

Behind Anson were many men dressed in black. They surrounded the three of us.

“I didn’t expect you to bring Suyang with you. My life plan is ruin. What should I do now?” Lin Yixin cruelly laughed.

I never knew my face could look so scary.

“Lin Yixin! Ah! No!” I yelled.

“Anson.” She evilly smiled at me, “Do you remember this place? Welcome back.”

“Yuxiang!! Yuxiang…. You can’t keep helping the evildoer!” Xialing screamed as she was taken away by Huaze Yuxiang.

As for me and Suyang, we were taken down into the basement room that I was previously locked in. We were tied back to back against two chairs.

“Actually, this wasn’t the result I wanted. If only you didn’t figure out everything…” Anson sighed in disappointment. He turned to Suyang, “What a pity. Our time together was as short as the life of an epiphyllum oxypetalum….”

Suyang was holding my hand secretly from behind the chair. Just like his voice, his hands were icy cold, “Where is my grandma?”

“Huaze is watching over her.” Anson was abnormally calm.

“Things have already reached to this stage. What else do you want?” I asked Anson.

After firmly securing Suyang, Anson came over and stood in front of me; sighing. “Yes, I never thought I would fail. So now, I’m still thinking of what I should do next.”

“What you need to do is to release everyone and return my body back to me.”

Hearing this, Anson began to laugh hysterically, “Hahahahaha! Just look at you right now! You’re tied in the basement and you can’t move an inch. Yet, you think you are qualified to put forward conditions?”

“I’m not giving you conditions. I’m giving you a word of advice. If you do what I say, we can give you a chance to escape and not call the cops.”

Actually, I thought it was kind of funny how I was giving Anson conditions under these circumstances too.

“A word of advice….” Anson repeated my words. Then, he nodded towards a direction and walked closer to me. Out of nowhere, he had a gun and he pressed it against my head.

“Say it again!” Anson screeched.
