‘However, those who don’t have such a communication device will not be able to call for help at all. They can only patiently wait as they are investigated.’ ‘Investigate?’

‘They are investigating your origins.’

Tang Susu thought they were quite alert, but only by acting in this way could they better protect themselves.

“Actually, they’re treating us pretty well. When I slid down the pipe just now, I think I saw several forks. I think different pipes lead to different places.” He Qiang looked around, noticing that it was clean. Although they landed in a cage, the other pipes might lead to some other places. An acid poo, for example.

He Qiang accidentally reached the truth.

After Tang Susu used some other methods, she finally figured out the layout of this “underground palace”.

It was like a machine that screened different raw materials on a production line. It would remove the rotten fruits while separating the heavier fruits in one place and the lighter fruits in another. Even fruits of different colors would be carefully screened out. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The moment they stepped into this area, they had already entered the cold “screening” segment.

This kind of practice would more or less make people feel uncomfortable. It felt like someone was separating the wheat from the chaff as if they were some kind of object.

However, she had witnessed the capabilities of Master Zhang Yuanyan.

The investigation lasted until the next day. If Tang Susu and her group hadn’t come here to do business and wanted to invite Zhang Yuanyan, they would have already slaughtered their way out.

However, it was also right not to fight their way out because this was only the first level. If they made any movements, there would be even more terrifying things waiting for them!

On the other side, Eighth, who had been waiting for an entire night, couldn’t help but sneer.

“See, I told you they ran away.”

Sang checked the location on his communicator. “They’re near Jichuan County. They haven’t moved for a long time. 1 wonder if they’re in trouble.”

“Chuanji County?” Changming revealed a look of understanding. “I get it now. Don’t worry, it’s normal. They should be alright.”

“What do you mean?”

“Didn’t I send it to all of you?”

Sang tossed and turned the communicator. “Did you send anything? Where?”

Chang Ming also looked at his communicator. “Eh, did you forget? When we reach Jichuan County, we have to wait for their arrangements without complaints. Otherwise, our lives will be at stake. There’s no exception, even if we’re from the National Metahuman Squad since the person the top brass is looking for is over there. This is all his doing.”

Sang was speechless.

“Changming, you’re being dumb again, aren’t you?” The others didn’t doubt this at all. It was not the first or second time that Changming, who had always been responsible, and meticulous, would occasionally get lost in the plot.

“It’s lucky that the boss isn’t here,” Changming revealed a smile as if he had just survived a disaster.

“Wait, why hasn’t he returned yet?”

The others were speechless.

Eleven mumbled, “What’s the big deal? Hasn’t the boss always been like that?”

In the beginning, they would get worried, but later on, he would always appear without making a sound.

Over time, they got used to it. Instead, it was when he stayed by their side that they couldn’t get used to it.

The ten core members of the National Metahuman Squad were basically raised like this. Shen Zhiting cared little about them and they were free to do as they wished. However, they would strictly obey every order he gave.

That was because he was the one who had given them their superpowers, freedom, and status.

Changming, however, furrowed his eyebrows slightly. It was obvious that he was worrying about something else.

At the same time, Shi Shaochen, who had already formed an alliance with Shao Haicheng, brought his men to Hongcheng District and had a secret discussion with the official forces in Province A.

Even Shao Haicheng didn’t know what they discussed, but they had gained another ally in the afternoon.

Even so, Shi Shaochen still felt it wasn’t enough. It was far from enough. He needed to form an alliance with more people in order to have a greater chance of winning. Hence, he targeted a few scattered forces in the Dadong District. Night fell, and the gothic-style villa was brightly lit.

Seeing that Tang Susu and the others had yet to return and that their boss was nowhere to be seen, Sang and the others couldn’t wait any longer and prepared to go out to look for them.

Otherwise, if something happened to Tang Susu, what would happen to the boss?

The moment they stepped out of the door, three cars sped through the night on the wide street outside. The car in the lead stopped steadily in the parking area. Mr. Tang was the first to rush out. “Why were you away for so long? 1 almost couldn’t stop myself from going out to look for you. How did it go?”

Tang Susu’s smile faded away. “Zhang Yuanyan is probably in trouble. 1 couldn’t even see him, but Mingqi and Duan Hongyu are still there. They’re still looking for a chance.”

“Pfft, they were detained there.” Bai Yanhui simply exposed the truth.

However, Tang Susu hand picked them to stay behind since both of them were good at socializing. The result shouldn’t disappoint her.

“What about Mingchu and the others?” Mr. Tang looked around and found that more than half of the people didn’t return..
