Wen Yi never expected that on her first day of training down the mountain, she would be kidnapped! She woke up at a crime scene, with a dead body lying beside her. Bad news: she became a suspect. W...
Chapter 74: Falling into the tiger's mouth again. The next second, her eyes went dark and her consciousness gradually...
The taxi drove a long way off, the outline of the hospital gradually disappearing, but Wen Yi's heart was still beating wildly. She leaned against the car window, looking out at the brilliant lights of the city, feeling a little dazed.
Unbelievable, she actually escaped?
But the uneasiness in her heart became more and more obvious. She kept looking back, wondering if Gu Yifeng would catch up with her soon?
With his abilities, he might have caught her before she even had a chance to catch her breath. She finally realized that being "Mrs. Gu" wasn't easy. Her life, seemingly dignified and respectable, was actually a luxurious prison. For the first time, Gu Yifeng now frightened her.
In the past timeline, even though she was misunderstood, treated as a murderer, and even handcuffed and taken away by him, she was angry, wronged, and unwilling...but she was not afraid.
Back then, their positions were different, their identities hidden, they tested each other, yet they also cherished each other. Their gazes held a thousand words, filled with trust and dependence. Now, when she looked at him, she was speechless, filled only with unease and nervousness.
What exactly has changed?
The light from outside the window reflected on her face, illuminating a long and shallow tear mark from the corner of her eye to her cheek.
She took a deep breath, not knowing how to break the deadlock. Should she use her abilities to fight against Gu Yifeng?
From childhood to adulthood, she has never seen any couple in her family rely on supernatural powers to solve problems.
Love is about understanding, tolerance, and fulfillment, not confrontation. Ability is a weapon; how can one use violence against a loved one?
She rolled down the car window, and the night wind blew in her face, bringing with it a long-lost freedom. She tried to suppress her inner restlessness and forced herself to calm down.
A head-on confrontation definitely won't work, at least not now. It's better to hide first.
Guo Qingyu's words suddenly popped up in my mind: "You don't have only one track to follow."
Wen Yi's mind fluttered. Guo Qingyu's motives were somewhat suspicious, but what he said was not wrong. Besides, she was still interested in the Suwei Project. What if they really succeeded this time?
"Please stop at Yunhu Bridge subway station." She whispered to the taxi driver.
The taxi slowly pulled over.
After getting off the train, she hurried to the subway station entrance. Unexpectedly, at this time of night, the station was still packed with people, shoulder to shoulder, pushing their way out. She slowly followed the flow of people, and just as she was about to enter the station, she heard a commotion behind her.
She looked back and saw a young girl whose backpack zipper was not zipped up properly and things fell out. She squatted down and hurriedly picked them up, but was squeezed by the people behind her and staggered back and forth, shaky.
If you lose your balance and fall, you might get stepped on and hurt, with disastrous consequences.
Sure enough, the next second, the girl slipped and before she could even scream, she fell forward.
Oops!
Wen Yi reached out her hand almost instinctively.
The air around them twisted slightly, and everyone's movements seemed to freeze for a moment. The foot that was about to step on the girl's palm seemed to be gently supported by an invisible force, hovering just a few centimeters away from her.
The girl screamed, pulled her hand back, scrambled to her feet, and stood aside awkwardly.
The crowd didn't notice anything unusual and just thought she was quick to react.
A city surveillance camera, mounted on a nearby utility pole, quietly recorded everything. The footage was automatically uploaded to an encrypted server.
The scene finally freezes on the moment when she uses her supernatural powers.
Inside the subway station, Wen Yi wandered several times in front of the employee entrance door, unable to find a way in. Last time, she had been hurriedly ushered in by Guo Qingyu and hadn't noticed the door at all. Now, after taking a closer look, she realized that this seemingly ordinary iron door actually held a profound mystery.
The door was coated in some special paint that blended seamlessly into the background, making it unnoticeable only from certain angles. The door was covered in inconspicuous sensors, including a seemingly ordinary fingerprint recognition area. She suspected it was more than just fingerprint recognition; perhaps it concealed cutting-edge technology far beyond ordinary imagination, guarding the secrets behind the door.
This was Guo Qingyu's secret laboratory, naturally not accessible to ordinary people, and she was successfully blocked from entering. To make matters worse, she was afraid of being tracked by Gu Yifeng, so she deliberately left her phone at the hospital, and now she couldn't contact Guo Qingyu.
Her unusual behavior finally caught their attention, and two uniformed officers approached her, their expressions serious and alert.
"What are you doing here?!"
"...It's okay, it's okay." Wen Yi quickly waved her hands, "We took the wrong path."
After saying that, she immediately walked out of the subway station.
But the two people behind her had no intention of leaving, instead they followed her closely.
Wen Yi's heartbeat quickened, and her steps became more hurried. After walking a few meters, she felt a sudden heaviness in her lower abdomen. She couldn't help but clutch her stomach, slowing down her pace. Could it be relatives? She glanced back hastily. The two people were still there. Were they really subway staff? Or were they Gu Yifeng's men?
Her heart tightened, and she quickened her pace to leave the subway station. The exit that had been bustling just a moment ago was now deserted, with almost no one passing by.
She looked back at the subway entrance again, and the two people were gone.
Got rid of it?
Wen Yi did not stop and turned into an alley.
In the dim alley, a strange and powerful force suddenly descended from the sky and enveloped her whole body.
A cold sweat broke out on her back, and she immediately gathered her strength as usual. However, no matter how hard she tried, the power in her body seemed to be firmly suppressed by something, becoming slow and weak, almost as if it were non-existent! Her lower abdomen suddenly tightened, and she could no longer stand and suddenly fell to her knees.
The next second, a buzzing sound rang in her ears, her vision went dark, and her consciousness gradually became blurred.

Yiqi Technology President's Office
With a loud bang, the door was kicked open roughly and an uninvited guest rushed in.
The person who came was Gu Yifeng.
His face was grim, and he was dressed in black, looking like a deadly ghost. In a flash, he was in front of the desk.
Guo Qingyu slowly put down the document in his hand, frowned slightly, and glared back at him without any hesitation: "What did you send again——"
"Where is she?" A sentence interrupted his dissatisfaction.
Guo Qingyu raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes rolled, and a hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of his mouth: "You come to me to find your wife?"
"Don't play dumb!" Gu Yifeng's voice was filled with anger. "She came to see you. The surveillance footage shows that she was last seen in front of your laboratory door."
"Even if she was here, so what? Is there any evidence that she's involved?" Guo Qingyu leaned back in his chair, his tone calm and lazy. "Investigations require evidence."
The atmosphere in the office suddenly became tense. The conversation reached a deadlock, but Gu Yifeng still did not leave.
After a long silence, he said coldly: "I know what you said to her." This was an affirmative sentence.
"She disappeared from the hospital and her condition is unstable. If anything happens to her, you will be held responsible."
Guo Qingyu's eyes flickered slightly, and his smile gradually faded. "She's your wife, not mine. Why are you blaming me when something goes wrong? Director Gu, why don't you look for your own problems first?"
Gu Yifeng's eyes darkened. This sentence was like a needle, piercing the place he was most reluctant to face.
His fists slowly clenched at his sides, and the next moment, he suddenly took a step forward, grabbed Guo Qingyu's collar across the desk, and lifted him up.
Guo Qingyu was held in the air, his face showing no sign of panic. Instead, a sneer appeared on his face: "What? Are you going to teach me a lesson again?"
Gu Yifeng did not let go, nor did he continue to attack, but just stared into his eyes.
After a moment, he finally spoke: "People with special abilities keep disappearing. Why don't you use some of your skills to find their whereabouts, Mr. Guo?"
His tone was clearly threatening, "If you can't find it...you don't have to keep this crappy lab. The Tenth Bureau will take it over for you."
After saying that, he suddenly let go and let Guo Qingyu fall back into the chair.
After Gu Yifeng left, the laziness and teasing on Guo Qingyu's face finally disappeared, replaced by a hint of anxiety.
He hasn't even dug himself into the corner yet, so how can he allow others to take advantage of the situation and interfere?
He immediately turned on the computer, called up the encrypted communication interface, and began to arrange work.
He rubbed his brows: "This little troublemaker is really troublesome..."

Wen Yi slowly opened her eyes and found herself lying on the cold ground. She instantly woke up, struggled to sit up, and looked around vigilantly.
It was a closed room, dimly lit, unable to clearly see the surroundings. To describe it as impregnable wouldn't be an exaggeration. She leaned against the wall and reached out to touch it. Although she couldn't determine the material, she could tell it wasn't an ordinary wall.
Where is this?
She tried to mobilize the power within her once more, but still nothing happened. It was as if the familiar strength had been drained away. After a long effort, not even a ripple in the air was created.
Why did her powers suddenly stop working? It was outrageous that they failed at the crucial moment.
She gritted her teeth and tried to concentrate again, but it was no use. Her lower abdomen began to ache again, and she couldn't help but groan.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind, with a bit of helplessness: "Don't bother with that. We can't get out of here."
Then, another voice added coldly, "The walls are made of a special alloy, and the ground is embedded with energy suppression devices, specifically designed to deal with us."
Wen Yi turned around suddenly and found that she was not the only one in the room. There were several young women sitting in the dim corner.
She couldn't see their expressions, but the air was filled with the despair and struggle of the trapped people.
"You...were also kidnapped?"
One of the girls raised her head and said calmly, "That's about right."
"How long have you been captured? Have they done anything to you?!" Wen Yi's heart tightened, and images of human experiments flashed through her mind, and cold sweat instantly wet her back.
The man was silent for a moment, and finally just shook his head without saying anything more.
Wen Yi's mind is in a mess now.
I'm in trouble, this time I'm in big trouble.
I originally wanted to escape from Gu Yifeng's control, but now, not only did I fail to escape, but I fell into a deeper trap.
Now I can only hope that he will come to save me.
Thinking of this, her face turned red and she was so embarrassed that she tapped her toes on the ground.
It’s so... embarrassing!
Just as she was thinking of a countermeasure, a sudden commotion came from the end of the corridor.
This was followed by gunshots, sirens, and the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
Wen Yi stood up suddenly, her heart beating faster. What happened outside?
