Chapter 636: Someone Else Had Gone Missing
....Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Don’t think you can fool us. If you want to kill, go ahead!”
Gu Qingluan glanced at him and smiled faintly. “It seems like you’re eager to die, so I’ll grant your wish.”
She pointed her finger and, to the sudden change in his expression, a silver needle pierced his neck just like before.
He fell heavily to the ground.
Gu Qingluan s.h.i.+fted her gaze to the third person.
“What about you? I’ll give you one last chance.”
The last remaining black-clad figure looked at his deceased comrades and struggled in his gaze.
“If I confess, you must let me go!”
“Agreed.”
“Good, I’ll tell you, I am…”
Just as he was about to reveal crucial information, his voice suddenly choked, his expression twisted, and blue veins popped out on his neck. His eyes bulged, showing extreme agony.
Both Gu Qingluan and Wei Yuantong noticed something was wrong and rushed forward to try and control him.
But it was too late.
The third black-clad individual was dead on the ground.
Wei Yuantong crouched down to examine his body and after a moment, he frowned, “He was cursed. Once he mentioned something he shouldn’t, the curse would devour and erase him.”
Such methods were not uncommon for controlling subordinates.
However, this meant they wouldn’t be able to uncover the true mastermind behind the disappearances.
Gu Qingluan looked at Bo He. “Have you encountered any black-clad individuals on your end?”
Bo He shook her head.
Feng Tianlan, who had been silent all this time, spoke in a deep voice, “They only targeted Qingluan, Xiaonan, and Yuanxi. This matches our previous investigation results. Their targets are the beautiful sister and the children. To accurately locate this room, someone must have been secretly monitoring us. And to do that, no one can do it more conveniently than the inn’s staff.” “That’s true,” Gu Qingluan asked Jing Feng, “What about the inn staff?”
“They’ve all been apprehended and are currently in the first-floor hall.”
“While the inn staff is suspicious, the disappearances didn’t just occur in this inn. Emphasize whether any of those people were newly recruited or if anything unusual happened to them recently.”
Jing Feng cast a glance at Feng Tianlan, saw him remain silent, and respectfully acknowledged before leaving.
“There’s nothing else to be done. Everyone, return to your rooms and rest. We have to continue our journey tomorrow,” Gu Qingluan said to everyone.
Bo He asked, “Madam, this place is tainted with death. Shall I tidy up a room and prepare it for you all?”
Without waiting for Gu Qingluan’s response, Feng Tianlan spoke first, “No need. I’ve already arranged a room in advance. We’ll move to that one to rest.” Bo He glanced at Gu Qingluan.
Gu Qingluan nodded.
Bo He didn’t say anything further.
After moving to the new guest room, Gu Qingluan instructed her servants to rest and then called her two sons to bed.
The two little ones lay on the bed with wide-open eyes, showing no signs of sleepiness.
“What’s wrong?” Gu Qingluan asked as she turned to look at them, propping her head on one side.
Gu Xiaonan asked softly, “Mother, why do you think they kidnapped us? What do they want?”
“I don’t know.”
“Why did they only kidnap the three of us? Is it because we look better?”
Gu Qingluan replied, “Perhaps.”
“Mother…”
Gu Qingluan interrupted him, “Close your eyes and go to sleep.”
“Okay.” Gu Xiaonan reluctantly closed his eyes, but the pupils beneath his eyelids couldn’t stay still.
Feng Yuanxi was equally curious.
Seeing Gu Xiaonan return empty-handed, he put his doubts in his heart.
Gu Qingluan covered them with the blankets, then turned over and lay on her back with her eyes closed.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, she faintly heard a commotion coming from outside the window.
Gu Qingluan instantly opened her eyes.
At the same time, not far away, Feng Tianlan also opened his eyes.
They exchanged glances.
Their spiritual awareness extended from the guest room, reaching outside the inn.
The commotion was coming from another inn.
Someone else had gone missing!
