443 The Perfect Surveillance ? (1/2)

With his adept control over the extradimensional gates, Zhao Yao had transported himself back to the restaurant in no time. The whole process was completed while he remained invisible.

”Matcha and the rest will continue the pursuit of the kidnappers. Meanwhile, I shall just stalk this guy here.”

However, Faceless's schedule was packed with those seemingly innocuous meetings. Hence, the next few hours felt like forever as Zhao Yao watched Faceless chatting with some of the richest men of China. This was definitely not Zhao Yao's cup of tea.

However, he had already assigned the cats to track the trail left behind in the desert. Hence, he could only endure the stifling boredom and continued with his surveillance.

However, Faceless knew that something was amiss as a tingling sensation ran down his arm. He immediately swept his head around as he exited the giant doors of the opulent restaurant, but he saw nothing. Obviously, he couldn't see the invisible Zhao Yao.

A glimmer of confusion flashed across his eyes as he mumbled, ”What is happening? Why do I feel as if someone was watching me?”

…

In the middle of the night, Faceless laid motionlessly on his bed. Suddenly, a line began to etch between his brows.

Klunk … Klunk … Klunk

Faceless's eyelids trembled. He knew that someone was outside.

Klunk … Klunk …Klunk

Immediately, he focused his attention on the tiny slit between the doors. He carefully inched towards it and pressed his ears against the door.

Klunk … Klunk … Klunk

Faceless slowly pushed open the door and followed the sound all the way to the fridge. For some unknown reason, the doors to the fridge were left wide open.

He proceeded cautiously towards the fridge with his brows tightly knitted together, ”What the hell is going on? Who opened it?”

He was living in a magnificent three storied bungalow. All his guards resided in the first two floors. These guards were no ordinary people. They were handpicked by him when they were just orphans. His continued brainwashing had turned them into the most faithful soldiers. Furthermore, no one even knew about their existence.

Without his permission, no one was allowed to set foot on the third floor, which made the situation even more bizarre.

”Did I forget to shut it?” As the vigilant man that he was, Faceless decided to err on the side of caution. He contacted his subordinates staying below him and only went back to bed after ensuring that everything was fine.

All these time, Zhao Yao was hiding behind his extradimensional gate and watched Faceless's action with a bag of chips in his hand. Zhao Yao muttered, ”What a careful man.”

Barely 10 minutes into his sleep, Faceless was awoken by a familiar sound. With his eyes stretched open, he sat up against the headboard as the sound of the familiar flushing echoed in his ears.

Instinctively, Faceless slammed his palm against the emergency button, situated next to his bed. Immediately, a detachment of guards had gathered outside his room, leading the charge was a 13 years old girl. This was the girl who offered to kill Zhao Yao on his behalf.

”Master, what is the matter?”

Faceless only managed to heave a sigh of relief upon seeing this familiar face. Her name was Peacock. She was the most fanatic member of Faceless's adolescent apostle guards. She had devoted her life to ensure his safety.

”Peacock, just now … get someone to investigate it.”

The young guards sprang into action, leaving no stones unturned. However, they couldn't find traces of anyone else other than themselves.

”It's impossible. I heard the sound of the toilet bowl flushing.” Faceless drowned in disbelief.
