When Liu Weike opened her eyes in a daze, she was already in a strange basement. She felt dizzy, had a splitting headache, and her throat was burning and painful due to thirst. Vaguely, she heard something.
The sound of quarreling.
"Since you can save me, you can also save Phytolacca! If you don't save him, I will find people from icv to crush your security bureau, and let you, Director Yang, taste the feeling of being detained."
Liu Weike recognized that the voice belonged to Yue Yan.
"Keep your voice down! Yang Qi, I tried so hard to rescue you, but I hurt my subordinates in order not to expose your whereabouts. I took such a big risk for you just to give you a chance to change your mind! You still
"Xiao, it's not too late to take the right path now, stop being a helper and colluding with those icv scum." Yang Ming lowered his voice and said with sullenness in his tone.
Yue Yan snorted coldly and said mockingly: "It was these scum who raised me. As a father, when have you ever fulfilled your responsibilities? You were very powerful and young and promising back then. But I was just...
An accident in your life is a stain on your heart."
Yang Ming was speechless for a moment. After a while, Liu Weike heard his slightly bitter voice: "I was just a college student back then, not much older than you are now. You came too suddenly, and I wasn't ready to be a father at all.
Get ready. Child, I’m sorry, I was wrong..."
Yue Yan said indifferently: "Your confession came too late. My short-lived mother never heard a word of apology from you until her death."
"In order to make up for my debt to you mother and daughter, I will do my best to you in the future. I only have one child like you, and I am willing to give everything for you." Yang Ming said sincerely.
Yue Yan suddenly raised his voice and shouted excitedly: "If you are willing to give everything for me, then help me! Can you help me rescue Merchant Lackey?"
There was silence in response to her. After a while, Liu Weike heard Yue Yan's disappointed and irritable voice: "If you don't help me, I will find a way on my own. But no matter what decision I make, you are not allowed to interfere!"
"Yang Qi! Yang Qi!" Director Yang Ming shouted anxiously. The father and daughter walked away one after another, and the footsteps gradually disappeared. Liu Weike weakly leaned against the wall behind him, thinking about how to escape.
The next day, Yang Ming sat anxiously in the office, listening to Su Wei anxiously report that Liu Weike had been missing for nearly twenty hours. Yang Ming kept filling his glass with water.
, I drank sip after sip, but my mouth still felt dry.
He held the water glass tightly, his eyes rested on the swaying and slightly undulating water, and he pretended not to care and said: "Don't panic, Deputy Liu may be just too tired and took a nap at home.
Maybe I’ll be back at work soon.”
"Gu Siyi just went to her house to look for her, but she wasn't there at all. Her mobile phone has been turned off since last night, and we haven't been able to contact her." Su Wei said anxiously, "Weike never attends full attendance for no reason.
, let alone being out of contact all the time. Yesterday, there was a sudden fire in the dormitory building, and Yue Yan, who was locked in the dungeon, disappeared. I guess the people from icv must have made some moves again. Do you think Wei Ke will meet him?
Is it dangerous?”
Yang Ming shook the empty kettle and stood up to boil water. He cleared his throat and said, "Don't scare yourself. Let Hu Bo call up the security bureau and the surveillance video near her home to see if she can find it.
Some clues.”
The office door was suddenly pushed open, and Gu Siyi walked in with a gloomy face and said in a hoarse voice: "Hu Bo said that all the surveillance videos nearby were deleted maliciously, and the surveillance videos around Liu Weike's house were deleted within the past twenty-four hours.
There was no footage of her going back at all.”
Yang Ming pretended to be surprised and said: "How could this happen? Maybe what happened yesterday was really premeditated."
Gu Siyi stared at him and asked: "A team member just told me that you and Xiao Ke walked out of the Security Bureau gate yesterday. But when you came back, Xiao Ke did not come back together. During this period, did you pay attention to her?
Any movement?"
"I don't know where she went. Yesterday, Deputy Liu told me that she saw Yue Yan running away. We both hurriedly chased her, but we didn't even see her shadow. Then I called other team members to help with the search.
, but still found nothing. I was only focused on finding the whereabouts of the fugitive, and I really didn’t pay attention to the whereabouts of Deputy Liu. After all, I didn’t go with her all the time during the search. I originally thought that she had returned to the team early or was too weak to go back.
rest."
Yang Ming spoke as if he was reciting lines that he had already planned. He held the water glass tightly in his hand and still took a sip from time to time. The water in the glass quickly reached the bottom, but he still didn't.
He put the cup down and used it to cover his trembling lips.
Just when he was upset but didn't dare to show it, the mobile phone on the table rang. He glanced at the number on the screen, quickly reached out and hung up the phone, and said with a somewhat unnatural expression: "At first glance, it was a sales call.
.”
He stared blankly at the steaming kettle on the table, stood up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom first. You two, patiently search for Deputy Liu's whereabouts, and don't get distracted. If you need any help or cooperation, just ask
Feel free to come to me."
Gu Siyi looked at Yang Ming who left in a hurry, stared at the sweat stains on the back of his shirt, and frowned thoughtfully.
Yang Ming carefully looked around in the bathroom to make sure there was no one around before dialing the number. He whispered: "Why are you calling at this time? What's the matter?"
"It's still what I mentioned to you before. I can't wait any longer. I want you to rescue Phytolacca immediately." Yue Yan said urgently on the other end of the phone.
"Don't be willful. Do you think the Security Bureau is a place where you can come and leave whenever you want? It's already difficult to save you. If I act rashly again, it will only make them suspicious of me. Besides,
That Phytophthora plant's injury is more serious than yours, even if you walk out of the security bureau's gate, you will be caught soon."
"After all, you still don't want to save him..." Before Yue Yan could finish his words, Yang Ming hung up the phone in a hurry. He hurriedly smiled at the young team member who walked into the bathroom, and patted him stiffly.
Shoulder.
The team member called out "Director Yang" respectfully, with a flattered expression on his face. He looked at Yang Ming's back and wondered why Director Yang, who had always been so serious in speech and speech, was so approachable today.
