When Qiao Yanze heard that Cen Xi had gone to be a bait, his handsome face darkened in an instant.
The hand that was holding the phone tightened and the veins on the back of his hand protruded out. His grip was so strong that the phone was almost crushed.
It was only after a while that he said, “In ten minutes, I want to know where she has gone.”
Qiao Yanze hung up the call and pinched his nose bridge. His chest heaved heavily and there was a sickly sweet taste coming up from his throat. He took out his handkerchief and put it over his mouth.
When he took away the handkerchief, it was stained with a bright red.
Recently, he would vomit blood as long as he was agitated.
After injecting the red liquid, Young Master Li said that he had only three months to live. Now, nearly a month had already passed. His time was running out, he had to catch Young Master Li as soon as possible.
But Young Master Li was elusive. Qiao Yanze brought his men to the border of Burma a few days ago, but Young Master Li was not in the casino. Da Zuo had secretly heard from an informant that Young Master Li had gone out of the country and might come back in half a month’s time.
After waiting for a few minutes, Xiao Zuo did not call back and Da Zuo came back with his men.
“Young Master, the informant said that Young Master Li is still not back yet. And no one in the casino knows where he has gone!”
Young Master Li’s counter-reconnaissance method was good. If he wanted to hide, it would take a while to find him.
“Ask the informant to go to the casino to ask about and see if he can find clues on where Young Master Li is hiding.”
“Okay.”
After Da Zuo left, Xiao Zuo called.
“Young Master, Miss Cen has bought a plane ticket to Switzerland.”
Qiao Yanze immediately ordered in a deep voice. “Xiao Zuo, get me the next flight to Switzerland.”
He was worried about Cen Xi’s safety. If she fell into the hands of Young Master Li, the consequences were unimaginable.
…
Cen Xi slept on the plane and when she woke up, it was already dark. She was sitting by the porthole window and she looked out into the dark night sky with a dazed look in her eyes.
What Qiao Yanze had said to her in the video inside the SD card came to her mind.
He said that it was Young Master Li who had set the fire. Young Master Li wanted to use her to deal with him and she was in a coma because of the drug inside the jade ring. He asked her to stay at home and not go anywhere. He would explain some things to her after he had gotten the antidote and caught Young Master Li.
That day, when he asked her to take the black pill, she knew it was not a tonic but an antidote.
Her nosebleeds and fainting were not for no reason at all.
In addition to the shock, she felt extremely cold and miserable. She had naively thought that there would be good people in the organization, among which Young Master Li was one.
Did he save her regardless of life and death just to gain her trust and give her a poisonous jade ring to carry with her?
When Qiao Yanze returned to the Capital, he was cold and distant. She could guess that it was Young Master Li who had forced him to do that.
But did Young Master Li just let Qiao Yanze draw a line with her and never to be in contact with her?
With Young Master Li’s hatred of Qiao Yanze, would he want to kill him?
She could not meet Qiao Yanze if Young Master Li was not caught, and she could only live like she was treading on thin ice. Rather than being on tenterhooks every day, it was better to attack first!
The plane landed at Zurich International Airport at two in the morning.
Cen Xi felt that someone was following her. Before leaving the hall, she went to the washroom. There was no one in the washroom in such early hours.
After coming out of the cubicle and stood in front of the sink to wash her hands. She had her eyes lowered and just as her hands touched the water, a handkerchief with a faint pungent smell covered her nose and mouth.
With her eyes darting up, Cen Xi looked at the person behind her through the mirror. It was foreign woman in a long skirt with long, flowing hair.
Cen Xi struggled for a while, before everything turned black in front of her eyes and she fainted into the darkness.
…
It was already the next morning when Qiao Yanze arrived in Switzerland after transferring from Burma. Xiao Zuo had also rushed over from the Capital.
They contacted the embassy here and used some special privileges. They found the hotel Cen Xi had booked in advance, but the hotel did not have Cen Xi’s check-in information.
Cen Xi’s flight was not delayed. She arrived at two in the morning and at that time, she was bound to return to the hotel to rest.
If she did not go to the hotel then there was only one possibility. Something had happened to her and she could not go there.
Qiao Yanze immediately asked Xiao Zuo to go to the airport and get the surveillance footage of that time period. The footage showed that before Cen Xi left, she went to the washroom.
The strange part was here. There was only the image of her entering the washroom, but not of her coming out.
Qiao Yanze lit a cigarette and puffed away.
Xiao Zuo looked at Qiao Yanze’s face that was shrouded in smoke and said cautiously, “Young Master. It’s all my fault. I didn’t protect Miss Cen.”
Qiao Yanze tapped the cigarette on the ashtray and said in a hoarse voice, “If she wanted to avoid you, she would not let you recognize her at one glance.”
The video footage continued to play as Qiao Yanze stared at it with narrowed eyes. “Xiao Zuo, did you see anything?”
Xiao Zuo shook his head and frowned thoughtfully. “Could there be a secret passageway in the washroom?”
“No.” Qiao Yanze rewinded the video and paused it at one point. “Look here.”
Xiao Zuo saw that after Cen Xi went into the washroom, a slim, blonde woman in a long dress also went in, and the woman was carrying a large suitcase in her hand.
A few minutes later, the woman came out of the washroom.
She was pulling the suitcase in her hand.
“When she went into the washroom, it seems like there was almost nothing in the suitcase. But when she came out, the suitcase was obviously heavier. What do you think it was?”
Xiao Zuo’s eyes widened. “It’s Miss Cen?”
Qiao Yanze closed the laptop, his expression extremely cold. It seemed like Young Master Li had been sending people to keep an eye on Cen Xi. So, when she got off the plane, he had Cen Xi taken away.
“Young Master, what should we do now?”
Qiao Yanze’s mind was running a million miles a second. But he was not as panicked as he was now when Young Master Li forced him to inject that bottle of red liquid.
F*ck! Cen Xi had fallen into the hands of Young Master Li. He could not imagine what Young Master Li would do to her. Qiao Yanze paced around the room, forcing himself to calm down.
Cen Xi was a smart and capable girl. She said that she wanted to be bait so it was impossible for her to get caught by Young Master Li’s men so easily.
She would definitely find a way to leave a clue.
“Xiao Zuo, get the car ready. We’ll go to the airport now.”
Xiao Zuo could not quite follow Qiao Yanze’s thoughts. “Young Master, we’re going to the airport now?”
“Yes.”
When they got to the airport, Qiao Yanze went straight to the washroom Cen Xi had gone into. After making sure that there were no women inside, he searched the cubicles one by one.
At the sixth cubicle, he found that there was a cell phone wrapped in a waterproof bag inside the water tank cover.
Qiao Yanze immediately turned on the phone.
There was a GPS inside the phone and at the moment, a small red dot was moving.
