Chapter 101
Under the amplification and guidance of the nightmare power, years of emotions poured out. The long-suppressed feelings, the worry about Sangria's situation, and the hatred towards the Interhead Group mixed together and almost broke down Xisen's rational defenses.
"Tell me who you are... your true identity..." Qiqi's voice was like venom, paralyzing and penetrating his nerves. "Tell me, and you can take her away... You can break free from all this..."
Xi Sen's lips trembled, and his brain was no longer able to think logically. Under Mo Li's guidance, he felt a strong power, as if he could end it all as long as he revealed his true identity.
"I am..." Xi Sen's voice was dry.
And at this moment, Xi Sen's willpower, which had been trained for a long time and had been undercover for many years, suddenly awakened!
No... Where am I? Why is Sangria in front of me?
Is this feeling... a nightmare?
A huge sense of crisis came over Xisen, and he felt as if a bucket of ice water was poured over his head, and he struggled out of his bewitched state and regained clarity!
He immediately bit his tongue, using the pain to wake his body up.
"Ugh—" He groaned in pain, then used this moment of clarity to use all his willpower to resist Mo Li's invasion and control of his dreams.
"Get out!" he roared in his head!
As he woke up, the nightmare space began to fluctuate violently and collapse. A hint of surprise and anger flashed across Mo Li's face. He was so close to making Xi Sen admit it, but at the last moment he saw through it and woke up.
"Tsk, what a pity..." Mo Li's voice gradually faded away.
The dream shattered like a piece of mirror, and Xisen woke up from the bed with a start. His back was soaked with cold sweat and his mouth was full of blood.
Xi Sen stood up, gasping for breath, and immediately realized what had happened - his actions during the day had aroused Qiqihar's suspicion, and he even used his extraordinary ability to test him, and almost succeeded.
Although he didn't say it out loud just now and didn't admit his identity, the impulse to confess, the resistance to Mo Li's invasion of his dream, and the undisguised feelings for Sangria were in themselves huge flaws. Mo Li must have confirmed his treachery.
Exposed! Completely exposed!
Xi Sen didn't hesitate at all. His survival instinct drove him to leave immediately. He moved through the darkness like an agile cheetah, relying on his intuition to escape. He had to escape from Shouye City before Qiqihar sent someone to capture him for interrogation in the real world.
He had no choice but to stay where he was.
But Mo Li will soon discover his escape, which is tantamount to confessing. He and Sangria will become targets on Interhead's hunting list.
Xi Sen's escape was like dropping a pebble into an already turbulent undercurrent, further escalating the situation. Ghost Commander and Li Qiye quickly issued a hunt order. The elite within the group, the gray-robed men, and bounty hunters, like sharks scenting blood, pursued him on the road to Pasarine.
His retreat was much more difficult than that of everyone in Sun Town because he was alone and had a clear destination. It seemed that it was only a matter of time before he was caught.
On the other side, the atmosphere in Chenxi Town was also tense.
Everyone knows that there is a traitor among them and he must be found out as soon as possible, but everyone is a comrade who has fought together, so who leaked the secret?
Although Ango had some suspicions in his heart, he could not catch the person without clear evidence.
Especially...that person is also very important to Ace.
Seeing Huiyun taking advantage of Ace's grief over his sister's death to comfort him, Ango's eyes became more and more unfriendly.
If it really was her...
She couldn't imagine how Ace would feel.
Ango did not launch the investigation with great fanfare, but instead discussed with Tang Yu and designed an information trap.
"You mean..." Tang Yu hesitated, revealing disbelief, "You suspect her?"
"You think she's not suspicious?" Ango asked back.
"No, no." Tang Yu hurriedly shook his head, "I think... although I don't have a particularly good impression of her..."
When saying this, Tang Yu's expression was a little awkward: "But I have no reason to doubt her. Did you find something wrong?"
"That's right," Ango said, "but I don't have any substantial evidence, so I'm going to do this."
After a long silence, Tang Yu said, "I understand, but Ace trusts her so much..."
"So we can't keep people like this anymore," Ango said.
That afternoon, Tang Yu and Ango summoned some members separately, including teachers, students, and some new companions. They were all people who had the opportunity to access high-level information, and they revealed some information in the name of discussing "how to deal with Xi Sen."
But the hiding places and escape routes they told each person were different.
It could be a mine in the north, an arms transport route, or a roundabout route from a dry riverbed in the south. These false news were leaked through different channels and ingenious ways.
Ango monitors Intelheid's movements through Yang Haixi, a new idol star who joined Xingchao Entertainment and attracted much attention as soon as he debuted.
Yang Haixi doesn't actually have direct access to the group's core operational information, but Ango has entrusted her with a crucial item: the Face-Changing Mask. Yang Haixi already possesses the extraordinary ability of "mimicry," and this item is developed based on this ability. This combination allows Yang Haixi to access various locations with greater ease, thus far without arousing suspicion.
Yang Haixi's fans are also spread all over the place. Through these fans, her information channels are more extensive and she can often provide Ango with effective intelligence.
This time, the well-informed intelligence officer also quickly contacted Ango.
Yang Haixi's voice was solemn and serious. "I've received multiple intelligence reports. Intrihede's main defensive deployment has changed. Mo Li and his direct team are heading towards the river on a large scale. They seem to have abandoned other routes and are convinced that Xi Sen is there."
A slight cold light flashed in Ango's eyes, but his tone was as calm as ever: "Can you confirm the source of the information?"
"I cross-checked a lot of fragmented information and passed it on to students who can perform data analysis. The source is very clearly indicated in the right direction." Yang Haixi said firmly and confidently, "Also, I just sneaked into our boss's office. All his passwords have been cracked by you, and it has also been confirmed through internal channels."
"I understand, thank you." Ango quickly hung up the phone.
Everything was clear now. Of the three baits she had set, only the third one attracted a big fish.
She only told this information to one person, and the target was very clear.
An Ge did not get angry immediately. She waited calmly and told Tang Yu to keep a close eye on Huiyun.
Meanwhile, Huiyun, who worked in the warehouse, also appeared extremely nervous. She anxiously glanced at her communication device and kept a vigilant eye on her surroundings.
For some reason, a feeling of unease came over her.
In this situation, she turned to the person she trusted most here - Ace.
"I want to go to Passarine." In the small compartment, Huiyun and Ace were very close. Her eyes were shining as always, with a kind of longing. "I want to go...buy something."
"Sure." Ace didn't notice Huiyun's abnormality. "I'll hold you for a while. You go first."
Huiyun bit her lip, hesitating to speak: "...I feel like someone is watching me."
"Watching you?" Ace had no idea what she was talking about, but he became nervous. "Who? Someone sent by Interhead..."
At this moment, Huiyun hugged Ace's neck and leaned into his arms.
Ace was slightly stunned.
In the next room, Tang Yu and Lin Yaoxin were monitoring their movements.
Lin Yaoxin looked at Tang Yu's increasingly pale complexion, touched his nose, and said awkwardly, "What should we do now?"
Tang Yu ignored him, but Huiyun's voice came softly from next door.
"I have something to tell you. Can you come with me to Passarine?"
Ace's face flushed red. He took a step back and pushed Huiyun away: "What are you doing?"
Huiyun sobbed a little, her voice becoming more urgent: "I have something to tell you, don't you understand?"
As if he had a premonition of something, Ace opened his lips, but he didn't know what to say.
Huiyun grabbed Ace's clothes again and said, "I want to talk to you alone."
"Isn't it possible here? Why go to Pasaline?"
Huiyun's eyes flickered, and suddenly, a strange melody slowly flowed out from her throat.
Ace felt his eyelids growing heavier, and as the melody played, he slowly fell into a state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness.
Huiyun gently held her in her arms, but did not take the next step immediately, as if she was thinking about how to leave here.
"Let's go." Tang Yu made a prompt decision and called Lin Yaoxin. The two of them walked directly through the wall and came in front of Huiyun.
Looking at the portal that suddenly appeared on the wall and the two people walking out of the portal, Huiyun's face turned pale.
Ace trusted her extremely and had no guard against her, so she could hypnotize her so easily. However, facing Tang Yuhe and Lin Yaoxin, she was almost helpless and was arrested by the two without any resistance.
Huiyun, who was brought to Ango, had a pale face and pretended to be calm.
Ango didn't roar or question her. He just calmly locked his eyes with hers and said, "Do you have anything to say?"
"Yes!" Huiyun quickly opened her mouth and defended herself, "I, I was possessed by a ghost, so I wanted to knock Ace unconscious. I just like him, there is no other intention..."
"I asked you to come here because I told three people different coordinates." An Ge looked down at her and said calmly, "The purpose is to find out who is passing the message to Qiqihar."
"Now I believe you know where they are heading."
"And I only told you these coordinates."
"And after you did all that, you attempted to use Ace to help you escape."
"Do you have anything else to explain?"
The logic is clear and the evidence is irrefutable.
Huiyun's body began to tremble violently, her lips moving as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't utter a word of defense. In front of Ango's gaze and the evidence, any words were pale and powerless.
Finally, she collapsed.
