Chapter 116 Northern Town
Chapter 116 Northern Town
"We're in a small town to the north, and there are bad guys here! Sister-in-law!" Ji Qianqian's voice suddenly became shrill.
"Qianqian, let's run!" Liu Siqiao's voice came again.
The call was then disconnected.
Shen Wantang gritted her teeth, took out a map and looked at Ji Qianqian's location, discovering that the journey would take sixteen hours!
There was no other way but to call Ji Yushi.
"Hey, honey, are you back?" Ji Yushi's expectant voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Qianqian is in trouble. I've already sent you her location." Shen Wantang's tone was somewhat anxious: "Send a helicopter immediately."
Ji Yushi frowned and immediately started typing on the keyboard: "The weather there is torrential rain, and the plane cannot take off."
"Tsk, terrible! I'll go first!" Shen Wantang couldn't help but complain. What do you mean by planes being unable to take off in heavy rain? That's just an excuse for pilots' poor skills! What kind of weather wouldn't she dare to fly in before?
It would take her several hours to drive back to find Ji Yu, so she might as well go find Qianqian first.
So Shen Wantang followed the navigation directly to find Qianqian, speeding along all the mountain roads except for highways.
When Ji Yu called Shen Wantang again, she stopped answering.
With no other option, he quickly organized a group of people to give chase and made another phone call: "Mu Nan, my sister has had an accident in a small town in the north. We're rushing there right now, and my wife is on her way too."
"Okay, I'll be right there." Mu Nan hung up the phone immediately. He was only a five-hour drive from the small town in the north, making him the closest among the group.
Lu Xiao also received the notification. He was angry, really angry. His little darling, whom he had finally managed to win over... no, to coax into his hands, was being bullied like this?
He doesn't allow it!
In an instant, many people sprang into action, rushing to rescue Ji Qianqian and the others.
Shen Wantang ran countless traffic lights along the way, never stopping except to refuel.
Mu Nan was the first to arrive at the scene. He went to the location that appeared on Ji Qianqian's phone, but there was no one there.
There was no one on the street at the time, and no one knew what had happened.
"Hey! Hey!" Suddenly someone called to him from the window of a bungalow.
Mu Nan glanced sideways and immediately realized that this person posed no threat.
"Come here right now! Don't you want to live?"
Mu Nan thought for a moment, then jogged over: "What happened? I just arrived to visit relatives, why is there no one here?"
He wanted to see if he could get some information out of this person.
"Hey, you've come at the worst time! A bunch of people came from who-knows-where, killing and robbing people as soon as they arrived in town, just like bandits!" The man frowned, not knowing why.
"You are..." Mu Nan looked at him in confusion.
"Ah, I'm a homeless man from town, you can just call me Xiao Chu." Xiao Chu didn't mind his identity and introduced himself generously.
"Why don't you run?" Mu Nan was even more puzzled. Could it be that this homeless man had some extraordinary ability?
Xiao Chu looked annoyed: "It's not that I didn't want to run, it's that I didn't have time to keep up with the main group!"
"The main force?"
"Yes, most of the people in our town escaped together. Even though it was pouring rain, they still stayed together. Only a few got separated." Xiao Chu nodded.
He then said helplessly, "I had no choice! My position was bad. When they ran away, there were people all around me, so I had to hide to avoid being discovered. By the time I came out, they had already run off somewhere."
"Alright!" Mu Nan frowned; the matter was a bit tricky.
The main problem was that the torrential rain destroyed their escape routes, but it also bought them time to avoid being found.
"Search!"
Suddenly a loud shout came from outside!
"Oh no, oh no, quick, quick, find somewhere to hide!" Xiao Chu frantically tried to find a place to hide, but there was nowhere safe in the house.
"Come with me!" Mu Nan's eyes flashed, and he led Xiao Chu to escape through the back window of the house.
There were quite a few people on the other side, and Mu Nan didn't want to make a move rashly before knowing their strength. What if their strength was superior to his?
Although the possibility is small, it cannot be ruled out.
"stop!"
Mu Nan frowned, not expecting there to be another person behind him!
"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and everyone stopped in their tracks.
He thought it was just small gangs fighting and making trouble, but now things have become very serious.
It's already quite impressive for a small gang leader to have a gun, but if even an ordinary henchman has a gun, then it proves he's involved in the underworld.
“You two…” The man in the lead walked over.
The man was dressed casually, wore glasses, and had a friendly demeanor. If it weren't for the scene, you would never associate him with a bad guy!
That's it, now Mu Nan is even more certain that he's met his match.
"Have you seen a coin-shaped necklace, gold, with a skull and an eagle engraved on it?" the man asked, his voice lazy, but he was ruthless when it came to killing.
Xiao Chu was so frightened by the scene that his legs trembled and he began to stammer, "I, I, I didn't see it, I really didn't see it!"
"No, I just got here." Mu Nan looked at him and told him the truth, but she was thinking to herself.
What kind of necklace is this that has caused this group of people to go to such lengths to find it?
"Anyway, she's in the hands of these people. She should be a woman. Where have all the people in town gone?" the man continued to question.
Mu Nan shook his head: "I'm also looking for my sister."
"Your sister...aren't you afraid of me?" The man stepped forward, pushed up his glasses, and looked at him.
Xiao Chu was so frightened that she lowered her head and dared not raise it, and her speech was slurred. But Mu Nan was different; he had seen many such situations before, and this was considered a minor one.
Don't worry, he can handle it all by himself.
"I'm afraid." To avoid trouble, Mu Nan decided to go with the flow.
"Heh..." The man chuckled lightly. He couldn't see what the man was afraid of.
"Team leader, the captain is here," one of the underlings said as he stepped forward.
The man nodded: "Understood."
"Any clues, Xiao Lie?" A female voice came, and Mu Nan looked up.
He saw someone he recognized: Silver Serpent!
She is the second-in-command of the Zero Organization! Moreover, the Zero Organization is ranked sixth, making it one of the top organizations.
Mu Nan didn't really have a high chance of winning against Silver Serpent. He played computer games more often, and his fighting skills were relatively weaker.
The fact that the Zero Organization has dispatched Silver Serpent to search for that necklace means it must be extremely important.
What could it be? This piqued his curiosity.
"All I know is that they were hidden here and then sold as jewelry. It was two women together," Xiao Lie reported.
"Where is everyone?" Silver Snake squinted and looked around. Due to the heavy rain, visibility was very poor.
