He saw no trace of gratitude on Tianmei's face, and her words felt more like the trust shared between old friends or lovers.
"What am I imagining now!"
Yue Hai quickly shook his head and asked directly, "I came to ask about my friends. They've been in for over an hour. Do you have any surveillance that could help me check?"
Tianmei casually tidied her clothes, and to Yue Hai's speechlessness, after smoothing her dark hair, she touched her face and asked,
"Is my makeup smudged?"
Yue Hai's face immediately darkened. "No, I need you to help me find my friends."
"That's good."
Tianmei smiled and stood up.
Her movements were so elegant that even a simple gesture of standing up exuded feminine grace and charm.
Chen Peiyue watched her with a thoughtful expression.
However, Yue Hai felt a bit annoyed, and knowing Chen Peiyue was standing behind him made him feel uneasy.
He couldn't help but urge, "Hey, I'm talking to you!"
Tianmei returned to her desk as if by herself.
"Call me Tian-jie. My old man used to call me that too."
As she said this and opened her computer, Yue Hai became even more impatient.
"I'll say it again, I need to find my friends!"
At this moment, Chen Peiyue walked up and whispered in his ear, "Ah Hai, be polite."
Tianmei looked up at her and finally answered Yue Hai's question.
"Are you looking for two or three friends?"
"Three. One with stubble, wearing black. The other two are brothers, wearing gray."
Yue Hai quickly described the three people. Tianmei stared at the computer for a moment and said with a hint of surprise, "One is heading this way. I don't see the other two, but they should be the ones Shuangxing is looking for."
Heading this way? Black Blade?
Both of them were stunned for a moment.
Ten minutes ago.
After Huang Jie left the room for the first time, Black Blade had already woken up. However, due to his severe injuries, he couldn't rescue Xiao Yun and could only deal with the henchmen himself before leaving the room.
When Huang Jie returned the first time, he had even asked A Su to look for him, but seeing that Xiao Yun was still there, he didn't pay it any more mind.
Black Blade, on the other hand, had hidden in an empty room. His phone and other items had been confiscated by A Su, so he could only circulate the Tai Chi taught by Li Chonglou to stabilize his injuries.
Once he had suppressed the internal injuries, he intended to leave and find Yue Hai and the others. However, he happened to encounter Huang Jie leaving the room again.
As the saying goes, skill breeds boldness. Worried about Xiao Yun's condition, Black Blade quietly sneaked back and rescued her.
At Xiao Yun's strong insistence, he ventured through the safety passage to bring her to the person she called her master before leaving.
What Tianmei said about someone heading this way at this moment was him and Xiao Yun.
Black Blade hadn't expected that after cautiously bringing Xiao Yun in, the first people he saw were Yue Hai and Chen Peiyue.
"Why are you two here too?"
Black Blade asked with a face full of confusion.
Yue Hai's face lit up. "Black Blade, it's good that you're alright."
Black Blade was even more confused. "How did you know something was wrong with me?"
However, at this moment, Xiao Yun's eyes suddenly welled up with tears, and she ran crying towards Tianmei.
"Master!"
Xiao Yun threw herself into Tianmei's arms, and Tianmei, like an elder, dotingly stroked her hair.
"It's okay, it's all over."
Their actions interrupted what Yue Hai was about to say.
"Black Blade, what's going on with her? Why did you bring her here?"
Black Blade, still shaken, recounted the previous events. After he finished, Yue Hai and Chen Peiyue were stunned.
"Is it someone named Huang Shao? And someone named A Su?"
"Hmm? How do you know?"
Yue Hai said with a wry smile, "I exchanged a few blows just now, and these injuries were inflicted by him."
"Damn, such a coincidence? We both suffered at the hands of the same person?"
Yue Hai also felt it was a coincidence, but he soon remembered the Senlang brothers.
"Right, what about those two? They came to look for you an hour ago."
Black Blade shook his head. Yue Hai then realized that what Tianmei said earlier was about a different location.
But when he asked again, Tianmei countered him with a question.
"What did you come to me for today?"
"Does this have anything to do with them?"
Yue Hai's brows furrowed. Tianmei nodded.
"Miss Tianmei, isn't it? My name is Black Blade. I've come to trouble you today mainly to apprehend a fugitive."
"So that's how it is. It seems your friends have been targeted by the other party and are now in the back park area. But don't worry, I've already sent people over, and it should be fine."
The expressions of the three tightened simultaneously. Yue Hai anxiously asked for details. This time, Tianmei no longer concealed anything, summarizing the reports from her staff and what she had just seen on the computer surveillance.
"Oh no, the opponent is a third-floor operative!"
Black Blade was suddenly anxious. According to their original plan, the main force for the apprehension was Yue Hai and Chen Peiyue. The Senlang brothers alone were no match for the opponent!
"Quick, let's go too!"
Although Tianmei stated that she had sent Shuangxing to help, the two still felt uneasy. After asking Tianmei for the location of the back park, they hurried off.
Black Blade did not go. His strength was insufficient, and going would only cause trouble. Therefore, he followed Tianmei to a safer location first.
Just in case Huang Jie came back.
On the other side.
The back park area that Tianmei mentioned was actually a region behind the entertainment zone, mainly housing large equipment.
For example, the heating and water supply for the entire inner area had an independent set of equipment here. Even if the entire city suffered a power or water outage, they could still operate normally for a period.
Thus, there were many buildings and杂物 (miscellaneous items) in this area, with many large machines towering several stories high. It could be said to be a complex terrain.
Thanks to this, the Senlang brothers managed to hide using the terrain after escaping in. Hu Da was unable to find their exact location for the time being.
However, what perplexed the two was that the opponent seemed determined to capture them, staying nearby as if they had no intention of leaving.
This made the two feel uncomfortable. As they could vaguely sense the opponent's presence, they dared not move rashly or use their internal energy, having to hide like mice in a dark corner.
They didn't even dare to communicate verbally. The experienced Senlang directly turned off his phone, fearing that the opponent might also have signal detection equipment.
It's over, how can this be dealt with?
