Chapter 776: Chapter 774 Rescue_1 Chapter 776: Chapter 774 Rescue_1 “`
It was obvious that Kisaragi Chie would never speak like that.
“Hello, Lady Suzune.”
Fu Qian turned his head and greeted Suzune Sawaki, whom he had just t that morning.
“However, you should say that it’s truly unfortunate, our fortune-teller isn’t working today.”
“You have a point.”
Suzune Sawaki took two steps forward but still deliberately kept a certain distance from Fu Qian.
“I didn’t realize Mr. Darcy also had such feminine hobbies.”
“Perhaps because I like won.”
Fu Qian knew his image was beyond redemption and casually added color to it.
He sensed that Suzune Sawaki had almost dashed straight here; such a coincidence was unlikely, so he presud soone must be keeping an eye on his place and had inford her as soon as he left.
…
Arguing with Suzune Sawaki was bound to be a losing battle, his teeth clenched after one round.
“Are you here looking for Kagetsu Kana?”
The next mont, Lady Suzune demanded in a suppressed voice.
“And for Kisaragi Chie too.”
Fu Qian answered very honestly.
He ca here, indeed to observe Kagetsu Kana’s behavior after her return but also because he was aware of his sister Kisaragi Chie’s keen observational skills, so he intended to chat with the female fortune-teller first.
“Is that so? Kisaragi Chie doesn’t seem to be to your taste, though?”
Suzune Sawaki was clearly skeptical.
“Don’t be nervous.”
Fu Qian sneered coldly behind his mask.
“You’re not to my taste either.”
“…So now that she’s not here, where do you plan to go?”
Under successive provocations, Suzune Sawaki beca calm instead.
After several encounters, she knew this man would never do sothing stupid, but was just deliberately irritating her.
“Then I’ll go where people are.”
Unfortunately, before his words had finished, Fu Qian had already turned and walked away.
Seeing that the masked beast really left without looking back, Suzune Sawaki took a deep breath and reluctantly followed.
…
“Aren’t you taking the wrong way? This is the direction to the Kisaragi residence, isn’t it?”
Before long, as she saw Fu Qian truly making his way near the Kisaragi residence, but striding towards another corner, Suzune Sawaki finally couldn’t help but step forward.
“I know.”
He replied casually, with no intention of explaining and stood directly in front of the door next to the Kisaragi residence.
Unfortunately, this ti Brother Takagi didn’t appear from behind the curtains.
“Your luck doesn’t seem very good, this person isn’t here either.”
By this ti, Suzune Sawaki had realized that Fu Qian was looking for Kagetsu Kana’s current boyfriend, yet upon seeing the locked gate, couldn’t help but feel slightly gleeful.
Click!
However, her joy lasted only a few seconds, as the sound of a click followed, and the security door opened.
“This constitutes an illegal act…”
Suzune Sawaki was imdiately alert.
“Yes, so you can have the police co and arrest .”
Fiddling with the wire in his hand, Fu Qian nonchalantly pushed the door open, emphasizing the word ‘police.’
“…Do you really think I have no way to deal with you?”
“Not just , Yin Hehong thinks the sa.”
Amidst the faint sounds, Fu Qian had already unlocked the second lock.
“`
Last ti in the Furnace, his intensive training had a truly remarkable effect; his lock-picking skills had reached master level.
And now, as the second door opened, what lay before him was a small study, elegantly arranged.
The Chief…
When Fu Qian ntioned Yin Hehong’s na, it clearly startled Suzune; the anger that had been subtly rekindling within her instantly died away.
Indeed, he hadn’t inford his subordinates!
Although he was facing away from her, her reaction didn’t escape Fu Qian’s notice.
It seed that Yin Hehong, the Chief of Ye Island, had not ruled out the possibility that Su Gao was the Night Watchman, so after issuing a warning, he chose not to make any special ntion to his subordinates but preferred to maintain the status quo.
In fact, he had guessed correctly.
As he thought, Fu Qian walked to the wall and began to feel around with his hand.
“What are you doing—wait a mont.”
Suzune’s confusion ca to an abrupt halt, and clearly, as a Transcendent, her superhuman sense of perception had finally shown a glimr of its capability.
In the next instant, to her astonishnt, Fu Qian pushed aside the bookshelf and opened the Dark Gate in the pale green wall.
Faint breathing sounds followed, along with a burst of pink.
“Kisaragi Chie?”
This ti, without even waiting for Fu Qian to act, Suzune imdiately leaped in, and soon after, a surprised cry escaped her.
Grabbing a few pieces of paper to protect his hands, Fu Qian followed in to find Suzune adeptly untying knots.
On a heavy-looking wooden chair, a figure was tied up with ropes like a dumpling, her mouth sealed with duct tape, only her eyes blinking—it was Kisaragi Chie, who hadn’t shown up for work that day.
This is what they an by ‘diligence leads to prosperity and laziness to adversity’—this is the consequence of not keeping to business!
As Fu Qian reflected, Suzune had already successfully untied the fortune teller.
Considering so knots were tied excessively tight, she resorted to cutting them with a dagger.
“Thank you!”
The freed Kisaragi Chie weakly expressed her gratitude.
She appeared noticeably frail, having relied on the ropes to remain seated, and now nearly slumped onto the chair.
“Who tied you up here?”
As soon as Suzune finished her question, she noticed the wall covered with photographs, the map marked with activity routes in marker pen, and the clearly feminine clothes…
“Is this… your sister?”
Suzune was, of course, no stranger to Kagetsu Kana, and was deeply shocked by the room that provoked endless speculation.
“Yes.”
“Where is your sister?”
Having witnessed it once already, Fu Qian cautiously avoided touching anything and approached Kisaragi Chie.
“Mr. Darcy?”
Kisaragi Chie was clearly startled by the mask, but then she recognized Fu Qian by his voice.
“After Takagi tied up here, he took her away.”
“Ah! It was Takagi who tied you up here?”
Suzune gasped and turned around, the level of shock rising even further, unable to comprehend what had happened.
“Last night, Kana called to co over. After I arrived, she asked Takagi to prove his love for her, and then he tied up here and took her away. Before leaving, he specifically left the light on to let feel his love.”
Why am I not surprised at all!
The information Kisaragi Chie provided was undoubtedly significant, and the level of abnormality went off the charts.
However, recalling Takagi’s deanor from the previous night, Fu Qian was hardly surprised.
Back then, it was clear that Takagi had shown signs of being twisted.
Of course, Suzune didn’t have that stoicism, and after repeated shocks, her mind seed to be in a complete muddle.
“Regardless, Takagi’s current state is very unstable, and Kana being with him is very dangerous.”
After speaking a few words, Kisaragi Chie’s spirits had sowhat recovered, and in the next mont, she straightened up with difficulty, looking earnestly at Fu Qian and Suzune.
“If possible, please, I beg you both to help find Kana as soon as you can.”
