Jiang family in J city.
Lu Shi hid in the shadow of the streetlights, gazing at the magnificent gate of the Jiang family mansion.
In the dead of night, with few pedestrians on the road, Lu Shi, dressed in black, went unnoticed.
She was considering how to sneak in.
Judging from the outside, the Jiang family's property covers a large area, so going in to look for Jiang Fengtao would be like searching for a needle in a haystack.
You can ask someone first.
Speak of the devil and he appears.
A man walked out of the gate.
Lu Shi's eyes lit up; she remembered this man.
He was a teacher poached from No. 9 Middle School by the Jiang family; I think his name was Zhang Ye.
Zhang Ye looked nervous, carrying a large leather suitcase in each hand, and hurried towards a sports car parked by the roadside.
Then, Lu Shi smiled slightly and disappeared into the shadows.
Zhang Ye opened the back door of the car and tossed two large suitcases into the back seat. He then sat back in the driver's seat and reached for the starter.
Suddenly, he felt a chill on his neck, and a sharp object was pressed against his throat.
"If you make any noise that you shouldn't, you will... die."
A clear, crisp female voice rang out from the back seat.
Zhang Ye tensed up; there had been no one in the back seat just now.
But he didn't dare look up at the rearview mirror, nor did he dare to think any further. He hurriedly raised his hands and said tremblingly, "Sir, let's talk this over."
The other party could appear behind you silently and kidnap you. Regardless of their strength, this ability to stealth and infiltrate clearly indicates the use of dark magic or magical artifacts.
"Take me in to see Jiang Fengtao." The command was absolute.
"Second Master isn't home right now!" Zhang Ye replied tremblingly.
Where did he go?
The sharp object tightened, and Zhang Ye felt a chill in his throat. He was terrified and hurriedly explained, "Second Master went to the agency to handle some matters. I'm back to get the money; I'll go find him right away."
"Then take me there. Don't try anything funny!"
Lu Shi smiled, patted Zhang Ye's shoulder with her other hand, and a bolt of lightning instantly struck his body, numbing him completely. Then, Lu Shi removed the scissors from his throat.
After a long while, Zhang Ye finally recovered from the numbness, only to find that all his magical power was sealed and he could not mobilize it at all.
"My lord, spare my life! Let's talk this out. I'll take you to see the Second Master right away,"
"Aren't you going to leave yet?"
"Yes, yes."
Zhang Ye responded, hurriedly started the car, and drove off.
While driving, Zhang Ye finally saw the person in the back seat clearly through the rearview mirror. Dressed entirely in black, with a slender figure, a black mask concealing her face, revealing only a pair of bright, shining black eyes.
The other person seemed to be staring at him as well.
Zhang Ye asked cautiously, "Sir, is there some misunderstanding between you and Second Master?"
"Misunderstanding? There's no misunderstanding," Lu Shi replied casually.
I just didn't want him to see the sun the next day and then have his soul's weight sucked away.
See, it's so simple, how could there be any misunderstanding?
“There’s no misunderstanding,” Zhang Ye muttered to himself. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he blurted out, “Sir, could it be that you are the backer Wu Qingliu invited?”
What the heck? Now it was Lu Shi's turn to be completely baffled.
Seeing that Lu Shi didn't react, Zhang Ye thought he had guessed correctly and hurriedly continued:
“Actually, I also advised Second Master not to be so ruthless. Brother Wu has done his best for the organization, but it was really wrong of Second Master to treat his family like that. You see, this time Second Master listened to my advice. I came back to get the money. We will compensate Brother Wu's family.”
Seeing that Lu Shi still didn't reply, Zhang Ye hardened his heart and said seriously:
"Sir, how much did Wu Qingliu pay you? Our Second Master will pay double. How about we let this matter drop?"
After hearing Zhang Ye's explanation, Lu Shi roughly understood that the other party had mistaken her for someone else.
However, let's just go with the flow.
So she calmly waved her hand and said, "Okay, money talks. But I want to meet Jiang Fengtao in person."
"Of course, of course. Please have a seat, we'll be there shortly."
Zhang Ye was overjoyed upon hearing this and sped up his car even more.
...
Half an hour later, the sports car drove into a school campus. Under the cover of night, Lu Shi noticed that the sign at the entrance read "Wind Whisper Magic Training Institution".
In terms of scale, it's far superior to Nirvana High School.
The vehicle drove directly into the underground parking lot below the administration building.
Zhang Ye parked the car in the parking space and turned to Lu Shi, saying, "Sir, Second Master is in the solitary confinement room up ahead. I'll take you there."
Lu Shi nodded, opened the car door, and got out first.
Zhang Ye scratched his head and reached into the back seat to lift the two large leather suitcases.
After his magic was sealed, he was clearly struggling to lift it.
However, he still smiled and led the way.
Lu Shi didn't say much, keeping a distance of three steps from him.
Soon, Zhang Ye arrived at a gloomy iron gate in the underground parking level. He turned around, smiled at Lu Shi, put his suitcase on the ground, took a breath, and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" came the voice from inside.
"It's me, Zhang Ye."
Splash!
The large iron gate was pulled open.
A burly man emerged from inside. He glanced around Zhang Ye, then noticed the two leather suitcases on the ground. He picked them up and sneered, "Zhang Ye, you're so weak now! You can't even lift two suitcases. Come on in."
After saying that, he turned and walked deeper into the area.
Zhang Ye was about to introduce Lu Shi behind him when he noticed that the big man turned around in surprise, as if he hadn't seen anyone behind him at all.
There was no one there.
Lu Shi, who was standing behind me just moments ago, is gone. The empty parking lot lobby is quiet, oppressive, and terrifying.
It's as if nothing just happened.
But Zhang Ye could feel that the magic power on his body was indeed sealed.
He didn't dare to think too much, hurriedly closed the iron gate, and followed the big man in front of him.
This is a small warehouse, divided into individual storage rooms.
Da Han and Zhang Ye went directly to the innermost storage room.
The burly man opened the door, and a strong smell of blood wafted out.
In a 40-square-meter storage room, Jiang Fengtao sat in a grand chair.
He was wearing a top hat and holding a wine glass, drinking with a man in black next to him.
In the center, a middle-aged man is hanging there with his hands bound by black chains.
His body was covered in wounds, blood dripping continuously from it. His head was drooping, as if he had fainted. The pungent smell of blood was emanating from him.
Beside him, at his feet, a woman was holding her child, looking at the man with tears in her eyes, sobbing softly.
The child in the woman's arms had a dazed look in his eyes and appeared listless, remaining motionless as the woman held him.
The burly man carrying two leather suitcases had just entered the room.
Jiang Fengtao laughed heartily, immediately stood up, went over to the big man, took the box from him, and walked to the woman.
bump.
The suitcase was thrown to the ground. Jiang Fengtao flicked his hand, and two gusts of wind blew out, opening the suitcase.
Instantly, the suitcase was revealed to be full of banknotes.
"Sister-in-law! Here's ten million, consider it compensation from your younger brother. Just let Brother Wu have some peace and quiet." Jiang Fengtao looked down at the hanging man, staring at the woman's face, and said arrogantly.
The woman, holding her child, stared at the money on the ground and said bitterly, "Jiang Fengtao, my husband trusted you and worked for you. We just wanted Xiaoyuan to become a magician. But you lied to us, not only swindling us out of our entire fortune but also turning Xiaoyuan into this mentally challenged person. Now you've imprisoned and oppressed us, doing all sorts of bad things. Can money solve all of this?"
"You bitch, don't push your luck." Jiang Fengtao bent down, reached out with one hand, grabbed the woman's throat, and lifted her up.
The woman grabbed Jiang Fengtao's arm with both hands, kicking her legs wildly and struggling desperately.
She let out a scream, and her face turned increasingly bluish-purple.
"Why."
A sigh.
Flames erupted from Jiang Fengtao's body, and a defensive magical artifact appeared, blocking the scorching flames.
He flung the woman away from him and stared intently at the figure that appeared at the door.
"Your soul is truly vile. Well then, let me absorb it."
