Chapter 109 Shut up!

The night wind suddenly turned cold, and the half-open crescent moon swayed back and forth as if startled, while the rest of the moon carefully curled itself up again.

Amos coughed and looked up at the sky. "It might rain in the latter half of the night."

Leith was worried about Amos's health, "Patriarch..."

Amos's cough worsened. He waved his hand, but stood up anyway. Whether it was because recalling the past was too difficult or his body couldn't keep up, he seemed to have lost most of his energy. With Lai Si's help, he managed to stand steadily and turned to Pei Wu: "I'm sorry, Mr. Pei, I'm not feeling well. Do you remember the way back?"

"I remember." Pei Wu's gaze, which had been fixed on the layered branches of the Crescent Moon Flower, responded hastily upon hearing this, giving the impression that her inner beliefs had collapsed and she was unable to concentrate.

“Mr. Pei, you may think about it carefully.” After saying this, Amos went upstairs with Lys.

Pei Wu sat in the garden for a full hour before leaving.

"He has gone back, patriarch."

"They'll see through it." Amos closed his eyes, confident of victory. "When it comes to personal interests, everyone can see through it."

Lais also went back to her room to rest.

As expected, a torrential downpour began in the latter half of the night.

The entire estate was meticulously washed, and the rainwater quickly flowed in all directions along the channels. Because it disliked being disturbed by too many people, it was unusually quiet during rest periods.

At 3:30 a.m., Pei Wu opened the bedroom window.

He had carefully observed the manor before he arrived. The interior, from the entrance to the living room and even upstairs and downstairs, was covered with surveillance cameras. This was probably related to Amos's unique sense of territory. Once outside the gate, once the area was enveloped by the natural atmosphere, there were hardly any surveillance cameras to be seen.

With just a couple of turns, Pei Wu became familiar with the layout.

He was wearing the black trousers he had brought with him, and an old raincoat he had dug out from the bottom of the closet over his shirt. There was a hole in the shoulder, and once it got wet, the chill quickly spread throughout his body.

Pei Wu didn't feel cold. The heavy rain almost blinded him, but his vision remained clear. The sound of the raindrops hitting his raincoat mixed with his rapid heartbeat. Pei Wu silently jumped down the outer wall. His figure wasn't particularly agile, but it was light enough.

Pei Wu quietly went to the back garden.

A few hours ago, the crescent moon was beaten so badly that it couldn't lift its head, and it rotted into the darkness and mud.

Pei Wu stopped and carefully discerned the lingering pheromone scent in the air.

When Amos got up to leave earlier, Pei Wu was certain that what he saw under the branches was Tuanzi.

It was very small, and seemed to be much less aloof and clever than before, appearing listless, perhaps due to the instability of its owner's pheromones.

Pei Wu finally found her way amidst the various mixed scents.

After a five-minute walk, the outline of a wooden hut came into view, seemingly used for temporary storage of miscellaneous items.

rustling sound—

Something is rapidly approaching.

Pei Wu suddenly turned her head and met two pairs of scarlet pupils.

The bulldog let out a terrifying yet excited growl, its breath a mixture of hunger and greed.

The bite force of this large bulldog is astonishing; under normal circumstances, the person opposite would be terrified.

But Pei Wu stood still.

In fact, he was in a very bad mood. It was a rainy night, Lu Xiwen was missing, and his situation was probably very dangerous. Pei Wu didn't want to continue the previous pretense and probing. If he was given any firepower, he could raze this manor to the ground immediately.

Amos is really sick.

His lover died in K country. Since he couldn't overthrow the regime by himself, he brainwashed her and formed cliques to make more top talents work for him.

This is the consequence of any slight disobedience.

The question is, how did Lu Xiwen, with his strength, get captured by Amos?

At that moment, Pei Wu had the illusion that she was seeing Chu Lin's test paper with a score of 59.

It's absurd.

Thinking this, Pei Wu picked up a wooden stick used for building scaffolds from the ground.

It might have been a desperate struggle, but Pei Wu's mind was exceptionally clear. The downpour hadn't made him lose his temper; instead, it had ignited a ferocious flame within him. He weighed the wooden stick in his hand and found it to be of excellent quality. His field of vision suddenly became exceptionally wide. Pei Wu felt that even if Lu Xiwen himself were to take action, he would have to endure a blow from him.

The low growls were chilling, and one of the bulldogs pounced with incredible speed. Its paws left a deep crater in the ground with a casual scratch, but Pei Wu felt it wasn't as fast as he had imagined. In fact, his reaction speed was astonishing.

Lu Xiwen's words about "sensory amplification" and "world slowing down" suddenly became concrete at this moment.

But that's a talent unique to top-tier Alphas; Pei Wu doesn't know how he possesses it.

He then thought that I might have been angry.

Pei Wu's eyes were icy cold. Just as she was about to swing her staff, a dark figure crashed into her from the side.

It's a dumpling.

In an instant, Tuanzi grew to the size of a bulldog, and with a single, fatal bite, it seized the opponent's throat. Just as the painful whimper began, Pei Wu struck it on the head with a stick.

The bulldog twitched twice and then stopped moving.

Even the most powerful livestock cannot compare to a top-tier physical entity.

"I know you can't hold out much longer," Pei Wu whispered. "Kill the other one."

His voice was very calm, and Tuanzi immediately jumped out.

The bulldog had just turned around when it was pinned down by the entity on its back and snapped with a "crack." This time, Pei Wu didn't need to finish it off; Tuanzi directly bit off its head.

Pei Wu remained expressionless.

Tuanzi tossed its head aside and washed the blood from its mouth with the pool of water. It didn't dare to look up. With each step, its body grew smaller and smaller until it was the size of a palm. It then leaped into Pei Wu's arms and nuzzled against Pei Wu's chest affectionately.

Noticing that Pei Wu was getting wet from the rain, Tuanzi quickly opened a slight pheromone barrier.

Pei Wu saw the wounds of varying depths on Tuanzi's body, which were revealed one by one as she moved. In other words, those were also the wounds on Lu Xiwen's body.

Pei Wu pressed her tongue against the inside of her mouth, and an unprecedented surge of violence flooded her lungs, shaking her reason to shreds.

After Tuanzi licked Pei Wu, the young man leaned down slightly and pressed his forehead against Tuanzi's.

He had never tried this method before, only seen it in documents. As his thoughts invaded, Pei Wu suddenly saw a dimly lit basement after a period of darkness, with a person hanging up by arms and chained up.

At the same time, Lu Xiwen, who had been sitting in the basement with his eyes closed and head bowed, suddenly looked up. He pulled violently on the iron chain, making a rattling sound, and the injection on his wrist emitted a sharp alarm.

“Go back!” Lu Xiwen’s expression was cold and stern. He seemed to be staring into the void, but from Pei Wu’s perspective, their eyes met.

"Shut up!" Pei Wu said in a deep voice.

Lu Xiwen: "..."

Lu Xiwen's momentum instantly weakened, and he seized the opportunity: "I will soon be immune to these drugs. I can go out. You go to a safe place and wait for me, okay?"

Pei Wu did not answer, but stepped back, severing the connection established by Tuanzi.

The rain was pattering down, and he looked toward the location of Amos's room.
