248: Chapter 248: The Kidnapped Girl 248: Chapter 248: The Kidnapped Girl “Of course, Mr.
Ye, after you.” Tianjing said with a slight smile, gesturing towards the outside of the door.
Guanghua Road is a bustling street located near the city center.
It sees heavy foot traffic and is close to a river.
Building No.
53 is a high-rise with over thirty floors, plus three basents.
In the car.
“Ye, I’ve also heard of this spy, but I’ve never had a lead on him.
Is this information reliable?” Their form of address had changed after the collaboration, but Ye Shikai didn’t mind.
“It should be reliable; however, a cunning hare has three burrows.
It still depends on luck.” Ye Shikai replied with an awkward smile.
“Where does the spy hide in the building?” Tianjing asked.
“If the spy cannot fly, then he must burrow.” Ye Shikai revealed a knowing smile.
The two got out of the car and headed straight for the building.
“Sorry, this building is a private property, and you can’t enter without an appointnt.” A security guard stopped them just as they approached the entrance.
“We are from the National Security…”
“Big brother, can the two of us use the bathroom?
We can’t find one anywhere else.” Before Tianjing could finish, Ye Shikai interrupted him and signaled to Tianjing with his eyes.
“This…” The security guard hesitated.
“Co on, just do us a quick favor.” Ye Shikai took out a cigarette from his pocket and stealthily handed it to the guard, looking very urgent.
“I’ll give you five minutes, just five minutes.” Finally, the guard waved them in impatiently.
“Alright, let’s head downstairs.” Tianjing said.
“Don’t rush, let’s take a look around the first floor first, see what the environnt is like.” Ye Shikai looked around, noticing many surveillance caras nearby, wondering if the basents were similarly monitored.
They wandered around.
The building was apparently a large company, with people moving to and fro wearing work IDs.
Ye Shikai deliberately zipped up his jacket to avoid drawing attention.
Despite it being late evening, there were still so many people working.
Ye Shikai walked around and observed.
Apart from so offices where discussions were happening, making sounds, it was generally quiet.
As Ye Shikai walked past one office, he glanced inside unintentionally and saw an acquaintance.
Tang Yun.
Why is she here?
Ye Shikai didn’t go over to greet her; what puzzled him the most was why Tang Yun would be here.
Isn’t she a flight attendant?
How did she end up in this company?
Ye Shikai stole a glance and saw Tang Yun sitting in an office, apparently looking at sothing.
And on her neck, there wasn’t a na tag.
So leaders indeed don’t always wear na tags, but could Tang Yun be a leader of this company?
If so, why is she here?
Ye Shikai really wanted to go in and ask what was going on, but he held back and returned to the lobby, only to discover that Tianjing had been stopped by a security guard—the sa one as before.
He must have been recognized.
Soon after, Tianjing had no choice but to walk out.
It seed that only Ye Shikai himself could go downstairs.
In a mont of quick thinking, Ye Shikai took out the Netherworld King’s Helt from his Storage Ring and activated its cloaking effect using his Inner Strength.
In an instant, he disappeared from sight.
The Divine Artifact was indeed handy.
With the Netherworld King’s Helt, Ye Shikai walked out boldly, truly coming and going without a shadow to be seen.
Following the stairs, Ye Shikai slowly walked down.
Unlike above, the basent was cluttered with various small company signs and lacked surveillance.
Ye Shikai didn’t expect this underground floor to be so extensive, on par with the underground fighting ring he had encountered before.
He moved through the corridors silently, roaming around the small companies, looking for any trace of spies.
The reason Ye Shikai was searching the underground was that in buildings like this, there was usually an extensive drainage system.
Those drain pipes were big enough to drive a car through.
If the spy’s base was here, those pipes would be his best escape tool.
After exploring two floors and finding nothing unusual, Ye Shikai slowly made his way to the third basent level and began his search.
But he didn’t find any clues.
Could it be that the spies weren’t here?
Could the intelligence have been wrong?
Just as Ye Shikai was about to leave, he suddenly noticed sothing odd about the wall in front of him.
As a cultivator, his vision was excellent, and during his ti in the Dragon Teeth Special Forces, he was first in reconnaissance assessnt.
He keenly noted that this wall was newer and whiter compared to the other walls.
Ye Shikai tapped on it lightly, and the crisp sound indicated that it was hollow inside.
Ye Shikai placed his hand on the wall and felt around carefully.
Suddenly, he felt a seam.
Examining it closely and pushing against the crack, to his astonishnt, the wall moved.
Indeed, there was a mystery here.
Ye Shikai smiled smugly.
It seed he hadn’t co to the wrong place.
Applying more force, the wall quickly opened, revealing an underground passage behind it.
To prevent discovery, Ye Shikai entered and imdiately returned the wall to its original state.
After turning through several corridors, Ye Shikai saw a door with two n in black standing guard.
Delighted inwardly, it seed he hadn’t found the wrong place.
Banking on the invisibility effect of the Netherworld King’s Helt, Ye Shikai instantly appeared in front of the two n and subdued them with a couple of chops.
He gently placed their bodies on the ground, cautious not to make noise and attract attention from inside.
Pushing the door open slowly, Ye Shikai slipped inside and surveyed the area.
The living room had three guards.
Ye Shikai quietly made his way further inside, where two more people were located.
“Ugh ugh.” Ye Shikai glanced and noticed a girl bound up in the corner who looked to be around twenty.
Ye Shikai’s expression beca grave.
Why was there a girl here?
Her eyes and mouth were covered, allowing her only to make muffled sounds.
Ye Shikai carefully observed the environnt inside.
It looked like any ordinary living room.
Could these people be kidnappers?
Ye Shikai decided to save the girl first.
“Whoo.” A gust of wind sounded, and in the blink of an eye, Ye Shikai had knocked down the three guards in the living room.
He then stealthily moved further inside and easily subdued the other two guards.
“Ugh ugh…
help .” Ye Shikai took off the Netherworld King’s Helt and hurriedly removed the cloth from the girl’s mouth and eyes.
The girl cried out in fright.
“Who are you?” The girl looked terrified and was wary of Ye Shikai.
“Don’t be scared; I’m here to save you.” Ye Shikai cald the girl down.
Upon closer inspection, her delicate face and fair skin, along with a teardrop mole on her face, she clearly seed like a college student.
“I was kidnapped by them, please take out of here,” the girl exclaid.
Suddenly, a shrill alarm sounded.
