246: Replay in the hotel!

After Bai Li Xin watched the group leave, a cold smile appeared on his lips.

He ran a hand through his hair, and his originally pale complexion began to regain its color.

Bai Li Xin walked with light steps to the map of the Great Xia, his every movement unlike someone who had just recovered from a serious illness.

“It seems Commander Ye’s judgment isn’t that great either!”

He reached out, took the map off the wall, and tore it into pieces.

“That Lin Qi Ye is too emotional; he loses his composure the moment Baili Tuming is mentioned.

As for Cao Yuan, once he activates his Forbidden Territory, he becomes an irrational madman, not worth worrying about at all.

I thought An Qingyu would be the most troublesome, but he was easily dismissed with a few Forbidden Objects.

As for Shen Qingzhu, there’s no need to mention him; he actually defected and betrayed us, what a joke.

This Reserve Squad, every single one of them is truly a talent; it might as well be called the Stupid Squad.

It seems the Night Watchers of Great Xia are getting worse and worse in quality.

These kinds of people want to investigate me?

Ridiculous!”

Bai Li Xin shook off the remaining paper scraps from his hands, “As long as they leave Guangzhou-Shenzhen, I’ll have enough time to complete my experiment.

Immortality belongs to Bai Li Xin, and this Great Xia also belongs to Bai Li Xin.

Hahaha, Baili Tuming, I’ve raised you for so many years, don’t you dare disappoint me…”

In the Guangzhou-Shenzhen Grand Hotel, after Lin Qi Ye and the others selected their Forbidden Objects, Uncle Chen sent them back to the hotel.

As soon as they returned to the room, Cao Yuan couldn’t help but ask,

“An Qingyu, back at Baili Manor, why did you let Lin Qi Ye agree to Bai Li Xin’s request?

We didn’t come here for Forbidden Objects.”

“Cao Yuan, didn’t you feel that as soon as we arrived in Guangzhou-Shenzhen, all our actions were being led by the nose?” An Qingyu said.

“This…” Cao Yuan thought for a moment and said, “Indeed, ever since we got off the plane, we’ve been under the Baili Family’s arrangements.”

Lin Qi Ye sighed and said, “Moreover, judging from our contact with the Baili Family members today, their behavior is too strange.”

“Strange? What’s strange?” Cao Yuan asked.

“First, Baili Jing, don’t you think he acted too deliberately?

Bai Li Pang Pang has been missing for some time now, and according to them, the Baili Family has been searching for his whereabouts.

Even if their brotherly bond was strong, he wouldn’t be teary-eyed at every turn.

Furthermore, during our conversation with Pang Pang, did you notice that he rarely mentioned this brother?”

Cao Yuan pondered, “So, Lin Qi Ye, you mean that this Baili Jing and Pang Pang’s relationship isn’t that close at all?”

“That’s right, that’s the first suspicious point. As for the second, let An Qingyu explain it.” Lin Qi Ye said.

“Huh? There’s a second suspicious point?” Cao Yuan looked at Lin Qi Ye, then at An Qingyu.

An Qingyu wiped his glasses and put them back on.

“That’s right, Pang Pang’s father, Bai Li Xin, also has a problem.”

Cao Yuan looked at An Qingyu in surprise and asked, “What’s wrong with Bai Li Xin?”

“From the moment we entered the room, we were given a hint by the layout inside.” An Qingyu said.

“A hint? What hint?” Cao Yuan scratched his head.

“Cao Zei, think about it, when you first entered the room, what was the first thing you looked at?”

“It was… that map of the Great Xia?”

“Exactly, the entire room’s layout was very simple, and the most conspicuous thing was that map.”

Cao Yuan thought carefully and asked, “But there’s nothing strange about a map hanging in a room, is there? I saw one in Commander Ye’s room too.”

“But what about adding a wall full of photos? Did you notice that there were far more photos of Bai Li Pang Pang than of Baili Jing?”

Cao Yuan recalled carefully and said, “Now that you mention it, that’s true. The map also had both their names, and I subconsciously wanted to see where Pang Pang had been.

Wait…”

Cao Yuan suddenly realized, “An Qingyu, I understand what you mean. The map and photos would make us subconsciously search for Pang Pang’s possible teleportation locations?”

An Qingyu nodded, “Exactly. If Bai Li Xin was truly as he claimed, do you think he would only search for Pang Pang’s whereabouts in Guangzhou-Shenzhen?”

“You’re right. With the Baili Family’s financial and material resources, finding someone within the Great Xia shouldn’t be difficult, should it?” Cao Yuan said.

“Not only that, although the locations marked on that map were in different colors, Cangnan was marked in red, and red is the most eye-catching color among all of them.”

Cao Yuan shivered, realizing the implications, and exclaimed, “You mean, Bai Li Xin deliberately guided us to Cangnan?”

“Exactly!”

Lin Qi Ye looked out the window and said, “Actually, it might not necessarily be Cangnan. Perhaps Bai Li Xin just didn’t want us to stay in Guangzhou-Shenzhen.

And Cangnan is the place we subconsciously consider most reasonable.”

“Then why don’t we just not go to Cangnan and stay in Guangzhou-Shenzhen?” Cao Yuan offered his opinion.

An Qingyu shook his head, “Even if we don’t leave, Bai Li Xin will definitely find other reasons to send us away.

I bet that if he’s not sure we’ve left, the difficulty of investigating the Baili Family will only increase.”

“Then what do we do?” Cao Yuan was a bit annoyed, “We can’t leave, and if we don’t, Bai Li Xin’s vigilance will only become stricter.”

“We can leave.” An Qingyu smiled slightly, “Since Bai Li Xin wants us to leave, then we’ll play along with his act.”

“You have a plan?” Cao Yuan asked.

“Cao Zei, did you forget? Don’t I still have the Fish Seed?”

Cao Yuan slapped his thigh, “That’s right! With the Fish Seed, even if we leave Guangzhou-Shenzhen, we can still monitor this place.”

“Exactly!” Lin Qi Ye had already started packing his things, “Only after we leave will Bai Li Xin, that old fox, show his tail.”

“So Bai Li Xin already knew Pang Pang’s whereabouts, right?” Cao Yuan asked.

“That’s right. Perhaps Pang Pang is in Guangzhou-Shenzhen.”

“But what is Bai Li Xin’s purpose in hiding Pang Pang’s whereabouts?” Cao Yuan asked.

An Qingyu fell silent. Yes, why would Bai Li Xin hide Pang Pang’s whereabouts?

Doing so seemed to offer him no benefit.

Lin Qi Ye mused, “Perhaps the internal situation of the Baili Family is far more complex than we imagine.”

Just as the group was discussing their next plan, a whirlwind suddenly arose in the hotel room.

“Holy crap!”

Cao Yuan looked around. Besides the air conditioner, there was no other equipment in the room that could create wind.

But even if the air conditioner’s power was immense, how could it create a whirlwind?

This hotel, it couldn’t be haunted, could it?

Lin Qi Ye and An Qingyu also became vigilant.

A silver stream of light flashed across An Qingyu’s eyes. He stared at the whirlwind, and a tear of blood flowed out.
