Unexpectedly, the navigation system detected loneliness in the voice.
Qin Mo’s men came very quickly. They were like shadows. The first thing they did was to return their young master’s phone to him. Now their young master didn’t need to pretend that he was kidnapped by Young Master Jiu so the receiver was useless.
However, the shadow guards felt that their young master was different compared to when he just came but they couldn’t exactly pinpoint what the difference was.
Their young master sat on a sofa while holding his phone in his hands. He seemed to be waiting for some news.
The shadow guards had thought that their young master would return to the An family. After all, their old master had come to America too. But after waiting for a long time, they realized that their young master wasn’t moving. Was he planning to spend the entire night in the castle?
The shadow guards glanced at each other. They quickly found a place each to stand guard.
The castle was extremely quiet. Only the sound of the clocks ticking could be heard clearly, from 11pm until 3am and from 3am until 5am; the hands of the clock kept rotating.
Qin Mo’s phone didn’t make a single sound even as the sky outside started to turn brighter. There wasn’t a single message received too.
He was waiting. He was waiting for that fellow to contact him directly. However, the ringtone which he specially set up for someone seemed to have disappeared.
Qin Mo stood up and made a call back to China. The first sentence he said was, “I want to know Hoshino’s position.”
The person on the other end of the phone was Magician. At first, he thought that before he found a way to find Hoshino, his boss wouldn’t contact him. Reality proved that he was too naive. “I lost him.”
Qin Mo clenched his fist tightly at the three words.
Magician wore his earpiece as he looked at the crowd around him. “I followed him to Tokyo. I thought that he was here but by the time I noticed it, he had already bought a ticket to America. I’ve found his flight number. Let me see if I can ask our men to stop him.”
The moment he heard that, Qin Mo had guessed what happened. He had never hated his inference ability so much like he did now. It was obvious that Hoshino was here to meet someone. The attack was sudden so it might have been unexpected. However, that person had already made the decision to not bring him along when she left the castle.
Everything had been arranged in an orderly manner. This meant that she didn’t leave because of the attack. She had just left earlier than she expected.
Qin Mo’s gaze turned dull as he thought about this. It wasn’t as sharp and cold as it had been in the past.
Magician waited for a long time on the phone. When he didn’t receive a reply from his boss, he tilted his head and called again, “Boss.”
After what he felt was a very long time, the person on the other end finally replied to him with a sentence in an indifferent tone, “No need.”
This voice seemed to be tainted with the dampness from the air. Magician felt that the voice didn’t seem real. Was he thinking too much? Why did he feel that his boss’s mood was exceptionally gloomy?
The shadow guards had the same feeling too. Not only the shadow guards, when Qin Mo opened the car door of the Lamborghini again, even Little Blackie felt that this ultimate boss its master picked up from the streets didn’t have the noble aura he had yesterday.
“I have to drive you away. That’s the only way she might come back.” The man’s voice was very low and slightly hoarse.
Little Blackie moved its lines seriously. “There’s no use kidnapping me. The day before yesterday, my master told me to let you drive me if you want to leave.”
Qin Mo’s hands, which were on the steering wheel, froze when he heard this sentence. Before he left, he had thought that the person would be waiting in the castle pitifully for him. After all, he had disappeared. Yet, now he felt that he was being slapped in the face by his imagination. She didn’t wait for him. Instead, she had silently consented his leave.
“Your voice password settings have been reset too.” This wasn’t a question. It was a statement.
Little Blackie couldn’t lie in this aspect. “Yes. Master made some adjustments. In the past, I’d analyze the voice. Now the password alone is enough to unlock the car.”
Qin Mo understood everything when he heard this. He tilted his head and looked at the takeaway bag on the passenger’s seat. It seemed to be reminding him about something. This feeling was like, you were extremely confident that you could keep her back but the truth was, when you moved your legs and walked away, there was a step in front of you. You hurt your head and it was very painful.
1Qin Mo raised his hand and held his forehead. From the look of his lips, he seemed to be smiling. However, Little Blackie didn’t detect any warmth in his smile. Soon, it heard a ‘swoosh’.
Qin Mo had opened the car window and thrown the takeaway bag into the dustbin.
The shadow guards watched him from the side. One of them asked, “Young Master, do we still continue investigating the organization?”
“Yes.” Qin Mo’s voice was cold too. “After you find them, contact the Federal Bureau of Investigation and ask them to cooperate with us by placing them on the international wanted list.”
The shadow guards replied, “Yes.” They noticed that their young master had no intention of starting the engine of the car. From his handsome side profile, he seemed a little distracted.
They opened their mouths again. “Young Master, do we go back now?”
There was no one here so what was the point of staying here?
Qin Mo didn’t respond to them. After around one minute, he finally started the engine. He threw a reply at them. “Leave two people here to watch over the surroundings.” Then he disappeared from the castle.
The shadow guards had never imagined that one day, they would become a guard of a castle.
Lin Feng also realized that he couldn’t contact Bo Jiu. Over the past few days, Lin Feng had undergone huge changes. The biggest change was his hairstyle. To make himself look more energetic, he tied his hair with a hairband. His clothing style changed too. Who would expect someone who kept calling for his grandfather to look so good in a suit?
“Erm, Master, I need to take leave today.” Lin Feng finished his last mouth of porridge and looked up at the person who had groomed him.
The man was eating very slowly while flipping through some documents too. When he heard Lin Feng’s words, he frowned for a moment before saying, “You are the one who’s in charge of this project. There’s lunch with the investors in the afternoon and then everything will end. Are you telling me that you need to take leave at a crucial time like this?”
“My best childhood friend is going overseas today.” Lin Feng looked away when he finished this sentence. “I must send him off.”
The man wanted to say something but the phone in his hand rang. It was from the CEO, who was coughing when he spoke. After hearing the word from his CEO, the man looked at Lin Feng and replied to his CEO with a “yes”. His gaze was calm as he said to Lin Feng, “It looks like you didn’t just run away from home in order to work, Yong Master Lin.”
Lin Feng choked on his food. He felt guilty.
The man didn’t say anything more. “There’s still another social activity at night. Come back immediately after you settle your matters. Even if you’re Young Master Ling, you still need to be present when drinking.”
“No problem.”
Honestly, people who were older than him had a more powerful force of presence. However, Lin Feng wasn’t afraid. He had started from the bottom because he had wanted to learn things from this person. After all, this person was very famous in the business world.
When he came out of the breakfast stall, he called Bo Jiu. He wanted to ask Little Spade what he should say to Yun Hu since he was leaving. Unexpectedly, when he called Bo Jiu, the other person’s phone was off.
Lin Feng frowned. Then, he received a text from his empress dowager. “Hu’s flight is in the late afternoon. Our families will be gathering before that.”
Lin Feng replied instantly with a “yes”. Then he asked, “Oh right, mom. Where are we going for the gathering?”
Mother Lin felt that her son had no hope of getting cured and called him. “I’m so smart and beautiful. How did I manage to give birth to such a stupid son? The same old place. Private room. Everyone is here, we’re just waiting for you.”
“Okay. I’m going over now,” Lin Feng replied. “To the beautiful and smart Mrs Lin.”
“Hurry up.” Mother Lin smiled. “Do you want to speak to Hu?”
“No need. I’m driving.” Lin Feng could hear the noises over the phone faintly. He could hear Tiger’s voice. It was very soft but his voice could be distinguished easily.
The call was hung up quickly. He was afraid that if Yun Hu really picked up the call, the two of them would have to converse awkwardly.
Lin Feng didn’t know that when he hung up, Yun Hu had taken over the phone. His fingers froze when he heard the busy tone on the phone. “Auntie, he hung up.”
