Pei Jiaoâs tone became more and more serious. On the other end of the line, Beikeâs expression was also very solemn. âYouâll die?â
Pei Jiao:
Beike hurriedly asked, âIs your place inside or outside the country?â
âl donât think I left the countryâ¦â Pei Jiao was not too sure. She had always thought that this base was on the border of the capital. Moreover, it was not far from the place where she had followed Wei Yu.
But that day, standing on the tower, she realized that she couldnât see any highway at a glance. There were only mountains. If Wei Yu hadnât pointed her in the direction, she wouldnât have known which road was coming here.
When Bei Ke heard Pei Jiaoâs uncertain tone, he seemed to have thought of something and asked worriedly, âDonât tell me you were sold to Southeast Asia? That place is a hell where even Sun Wukong will be slapped twice. If youâre sold to that place, you can only be careful in your next life.â
Pei Jiao said angrily, âYou havenât contacted me for so long, but your mouth is still as vicious as ever.â
Beike said, âWe havenât contacted each other for so long. You shouldnât have any organs missing.â
Pei Jiao pretended to hang up. âForget it. Let me die here.â
Beike panicked. âHey, hey, hey, donât hang up, donât hang up. I was just teasing you. Do you know that Iâm more anxious than anyone else when 1 canât find you?â
Pei Jiao said, âl donât feel anything.â
Beike held it in for a long time before saying, â1 miss you every day.â Pei Jiao smiled. âWhat do you miss about me? Me beating you up?â
âYes, 1 want you to beat me up. When you come back, youâll beat me up every day.â Beikeâs tone was like that of a resentful wife.
Pei Jiao took down her cell phone and looked at the time. She had been chatting with Beike for six minutes. Wei Yu had yet to return, which meant that he should not have realized that her cell phone was missing.
But it was also possible to find out. She quickly made it short. âRemember to look at the picture I sent you later. Iâll delete all the records on my end. Remember not to call back, or Iâll die.â
Beike said, âItâs not my first day out. I know the rules.â
âItâs good that you know. Weâll talk about the rest when I come back. Kneel, little guest.â With that, Pei Jiao hung up. Beike laughed in anger. âKneel? Pfft.â
Pei Jiao took out the map she had already drawn from the gap in the bedside table. After spreading it out, she clicked on her camera and took a picture of the hand-drawn map. Then she texted it to Beike. Within seconds of sending it, the phone rang.
Pei Jiao was so frightened that her hand trembled and she almost shook her phone off. Her heart thundered as she stared at the caller ID on her phone screen.
It was Ji He! Would Ji He call her at this time?
Obviously, Wei Yu had discovered that his cell phone was missing and used Ji Heâs phone to call this cell phone. Pei Jiao hesitated whether to answer it when the other party called a second time or now. After some hesitation, she chose to pick it up now.
âHello? Ji He?â Pei Jiao asked softly.
The manâs deep voice came from the receiver. âFei Yi, itâs me.â
Pei Jiao calmed herself down. âWei Yu?â
âYes,â Wei Yu said. âl just realized that my cell phone is missing. so I used Ji Heâs phone to call it. It seems that I left it with you. Iâll come and get it tomorrow. â
âSo itâs your phone. I thought it was the phone you gave me. It all looks the same,â Pei Jiao said and suggested, âWhy donât I send it to you now?â
âNo need. The laboratory is far from here,â Wei Yu reminded her. âRest early.
Iâll pick you up tomorrow morning.â
Pei Jiao did not deliberately try to find a conversation. âAlright then.â After hanging up, Pei Jiao heaved a sigh of relief. However, before she could heave a sigh of relief, her cell phone rang again.
Pei Jiao was a little weak. Although she saw that the caller ID was a familiar number, she did not relax much. She picked it up and pressed the phone to her ear. âYou found out so quickly?â she said weakly.
Beike could tell that something was wrong with her tone. âWhatâs going on? Just now, your tone was full of vigor as you scolded me. Itâs only been a few minutes, but youâre already listless. Were you bullied?â
âIâm just a little weak from shock. Letâs get down to business. Did you really find my current address based on that map?â Pei Jiao asked.
âIâm just so awesome!â Beikeâs tone was a little smug. âIâve been looking for you for so long, mainly because I donât have any clues. I went on the satellite to look for this clue you just gave me, and I really found it.. Youâre at Base
XXX, right?â
