18 Love or Life? 18 (1/2)
Mu Ziyu's current expressions are grim and nervous.
He and the people behind him quicken their pace whilst being on guard. The path to the middle of the asylum took at least fifteen minutes, the dim lighting is additionally a factor in it.
One of the people behind Mu Ziyu cannot help but to asks:”Chief Mu, do you recognize who's the person behind this?”
Mu Ziyu only shakes his head. Another man additionally said:”Maybe it is from our country?”
”That's impossible, we're protected by the military and government,” replies one of them.
Protected is an understatement. They are, after all, part of the murky water, the darkish face of the country. They function as the charm of the country, in a sense that they do all the dirty works.
”Let's now not talk about it. We must face the current problem.”
They nodded in unison.
Swissh! Swissh! Swissh!
The sound of the wind banging the windows could be heard. And even though it ought to be bright outside, due to the storm, its very dark and gloomy.
”Everyone be on guard,” warned by Mu Ziyu.
If those people barged the upper floor, they would already attain the middle floor, however no one was there. More precisely, no one is displaying themselves to be there.
The guards assembled in a manner where they are protecting Mu Ziyu however he is nonetheless one step ahead of them. They readied their guns with them.
Mu Ziyu took a step ahead when he felt a cold metal aimed at his head.While someone is pointing a gun at him, the guards with him are nevertheless calm.
His eyes flip bloodless at the mediocrity of these guards working for him. They are all useless.
Kacha!
The lights all of a sudden turn on.Upon seeing their modern state, Mu Ziyu could only grit his teeth.
Turns out they're surrounded by more than twenty people. All of the other peoples' weapons aimed at them. They cannot see and sense them due to the fact they're crawling and crouching in the ground and the scarce light can't reach them.
They also broke the protecting formation by silently squeezing in the gaps of the guards.
Mu Ziyu's guards became anxious as well.
”Chief Mu...”
Mu Ziyu ignored them and said:”I must say, the Xi Clan's guards are actually skilled.”
”Thank you, however I have no use for that mere compliment.” A weakly but authoritative voice merged in.
Mu Ziyu narrowed his eyes:”What does Young Master Xi meant via doing this?”
Xi Anran:”Where did you hide my sister?”

Mu Ziyu calmy smile:”I am searching for her.”
Xi Anran took his phone and a report came in:”Young Master, we searched the entire upper floor, there is no trace of the young mistress.”
Mu Ziyu:”As I was saying, I am searching for her. She isn't here.”
Xi Anran coldly looks at him:”Stop fooling me. Why would you search here instead of the capital where she went missing? Don't bullshit me into pronouncing that your power lies right here in this border, on top of that, in this asylum.”
That sounds really suspicious, yet Mu Ziyu shrugs his shoulder:”That genuinely is the case. My connections are in this place.”
”Above all, breaking in the hospital like this... Isn't this a crime? You're also defaming my reputation by announcing that I kidnapped her, however do you have any proof? Do you even have the search warrant to do this?”
”Here,” said Xi Anran and handed him a piece of paper.
Mu Ziyu noticed the paper and his eyes darken:”There's really nothing that cash and power can't afford[1].”
Xi Anran only glared at him.”Young Master! We found a room that has been locked. That's the sole room that we haven't searched,” Qin Song hurriedly mentioned as he arrived in the scene.
Xi Anran looks at Mu Ziyu who's facial expression is as stiff as an iron bar.
”Qin Song, lead the way and,” Xi Anran paused.
He glanced at Mu Ziyu and said:”Mr. Mu assist us in opening the door.”
Mu Ziyu and his crew had no different choice but be dragged through Xi Anran's team
...
”The electricity came back quickly?”
Upon entering the room, she was welcomed by a bloody and ghastly design.
There's literally blood everywhere..
008:”Obviously, you should hurry up. The physicians assigned here might come quickly.”
”Young Mistress...?”
A man in his thirties was severely wounded and lying in a cold and metallic operating table. His eyes are bloodshot, bruises all over his body. His garments are tattered into pieces.
Seven had a difficult time distinguishing Xi Sheng because of her outfit. He could barely talk.
The last time Xi Sheng saw him. He was once brawny and robust but in just a brief time he disappeared, he became scrawny and his cheekbones are also kind of hollowed. This is the result of being 'confined' and 'taken care of' by the hospital.
Xi Sheng look at the handcuffs binding him, she's thinking of a way to free him.
”Young mistress... Ple..please escape quickly...”
008 was also shocked:”They... Plucked out his... Teeth? His tongue is also burned out...”
Xi Sheng also shuddered seeing that, however she nevertheless maintained her calm demeanor.
”Where are the others?”
Seven who was a lot in pain tried to answer:”Es...cape.”
Xi Sheng hums. That's good. She can not assist many of their injured guards after all.
There are different tools scattered everywhere, be it clinical or carpentry... Wait, carpentry tools?
Xi Sheng madly searched the containers and finds what she needs. She cut it and went to Seven's side.
008 gulps:”Will that work?”
Xi Sheng straightens out the wire and slowly bend its tip.
Xi Sheng, unsure:”I tried it once in a padlock and it worked.”
She places the tip on the keyhole and bends it backwards. Once inserted the tip all the way into the lock, she bends the wire backwards to make another ninety-degree angle. She twisted it in distinctive directions and heard a 'kacha!' sound.
But she didn't remove it, she just makes it looks as if its still locked.
008:”It works.” That's amazing!
”Young Miss.. I'll only...hinder...you in escap...ing.”
Xi Sheng was wondering on her next move, however Seven was constantly nagging at her so she should only warn him:”Shut up. We'll go away from this shitty place. Don't speak, simply do what I tell you to...”
