Chapter 1767: The Hard-Pressed Xiaoyuan
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ye Tingyun woke up the next day. He just had an operation, and after the anesthetic wore off, he was attacked by pain. There were bouts of darkness in front of his eyes. It was not easy for him to grit his teeth and bear with a wave of pain. His face was ghastly pale like paper. When his breathing got slightly heavier, he felt like he was being choked. He was like a blower that had leaked air. All his internal organs that should not have air entering were pierced sharply. He felt terribly sour.
“Where is Ye Chu?”
The secret guard who was transferred up by Ye Tingyun was a Chinese. He was called Gu Hong. He was tall and had a big build. He was the second person in the secret guard group besides Wei Ling. He was tall and big-sized and was serious in his speech and manner. When the incident happened, he and another secret guard blocked in front of Ye Tingyun. They were thrown off by the hot flames. One of them died. Gu Hong was still not out of danger. He was close to death. He was more seriously injured than Ye Tingyun, who was in the car accident.
Wei Ling said, “Miss Ye Chu has been taken away. We have tracked Miss Ye Chu’s location as soon as possible. They were very smart to have thrown the tracking device away. Since the incident happened, our flying device has been tracking them. The three Hummers drove down highway number 1. Thereafter, the time of the flying device was limited. They never stopped to rest along the way. Our flying device lost its effect. After that, we changed to the satellite to track them.”
He looked at Ye Tingyun’s pale face carefully. “Besides stopping at the gas station to top up gas midway, they did not stop. They drove all the way along highway number one. Thereafter, they were at the boundary of California. Our satellite did not track them, and we lost trace of them.”
“How was the satellite tracking still able to lose signal?”
MISS was tracking a person in full view of everyone and could still lose trace?
Wei Ling said, “After they entered California and went into a tunnel, the satellite did not capture them coming out. Our people have already gone over. It was a tourist attraction on that side. There were many people. The human traffic in a day was huge. We could not check one by one. After they entered the tunnel, I felt that something was wrong at the first instant. I immediately sent a team over to search. They might have mixed into the crowd and disappeared.”
Modern tracking devices were not omnipotent. When they met experts, they also had times when they lost their use. Ye Chu also did not have a tracking device on her body. As long as they did not appear in the cameras, it was very difficult to catch them.
Xiao Ju said, “Second Master, don’t be anxious. We have already monitored all the cameras along the highways across the United States. Unless they have been hiding at a place and do not come out, they will have to top up gas if they drive. As long as they top up gas, they will be at a gas station. It is difficult to move around in California without a car. Cameras are everywhere. As long as they appear, we will definitely find them immediately.”
Ye Tingyun’s face was sullen like water. After he went into a coma, it was Wei Ling who handled the whole situation. Wei Ling was under tremendous pressure now. Another secret guard had died. Gu Hong was seriously injured. He had even lost track of Ye Chu. He was deeply afraid that the Second Master would think that he did not fulfill his duties and that he purposely used the excuse to kill someone. His spine was cold. It was fortunate that Ye Tingyun did not blame him. He was discharged on the same day. He went back to the top floor of the MISS building.
Ye Tingyun’s MISS had hired a big group of geniuses. His skills were incomparable to this group of young people now. Technology was changing with each passing day. If he did not monitor it personally, he would not feel assured.
California…
Why did they go to California?
Ye Tingyun thought of Mu Yuan. He had already come out from the desert. It was a coincidence that he was also in California. He did not have sufficient manpower in California. After all, he was in the technology field. The agent team was practically staff from the MISS building.
They were either his close secret guards or people from MISS building who were indispensable. Only some people could be dispatched.. He needed to borrow an army.
