Chapter 194: One hundred ninety-three, Infiltrate
When Wutian Xinye heard that his son had brought Luo Shu back, he was slightly surprised.
After gesturing for his subordinates to leave, he closed the document he was holding, stood up, and opened the safe embedded in the wall behind him. He placed the documents inside and locked it securely. These were the materials for the new weapons, as well as the data for the newly developed Poison No. 2.
Wutian Tengyi had Luo Shu taken to the guest room, and also arranged for two subordinates to secretly monitor her. Although he knew that even if he didn’t assign anyone to watch her, there wouldn’t be any issues. Given Luo Shu’s timid nature, even if she were allowed to run away, she wouldn’t dare to do it.
Upon arriving at the guest room, Luo Shu first checked for any listening devices. It had always been her habit; whenever she arrived at a new place, she would inspect it to make sure just in case.
Once she was certain there were none, Luo Shu went to the window and opened it. She surveyed the surroundings as though admiring the scenery, noting that besides the two people secretly monitoring her, there were no others watching. She guessed that the person behind the Divine Eagle Group was very likely the Wutian Family. When night fell, she would go out to explore and see if she could uncover anything.
Just after Wutian Tengyi had changed into his home clothes, a subordinate hurried over to knock on the door, informing him that his father wanted to see him.
Arriving at the tea room, he saw Wutian Xinye sitting on the tatami mat drinking tea, "Father!"
Wutian Xinye nodded slightly, then gestured to the seat opposite him.
Wutian Tengyi walked forward and sat down opposite Wutian Xinye.
"I heard you brought that woman back?" Wutian Xinye asked, sipping his tea.
"Yes, Father!" Wutian Tengyi nodded.
Wutian Xinye placed his teacup on the saucer and looked at Wutian Tengyi, "What do you think of her?" Wu Cilang had already informed him about Luo Shu’s character. But without seeing her himself, he couldn’t gauge her, yet if she could stand by Lu Hanmo’s side, known as Lu Hanmo’s woman, she couldn’t be a simple woman.
"Timid! Weak!" Wutian Tengyi said. That was the first impression Luo Shu gave him, and after getting to know her a bit more, he became even more certain that she was that kind of person.
Wutian Xinye laughed and shook his head, "Do you really think a timid and weak woman can get close to Lu Hanmo?" He had collected a lot of information about Lu Hanmo; a man known as the ’Cold-faced Yama’. How could a woman so feeble and scared dare to approach him? Not to mention, for her to live with Lu Hanmo.
Wutian Tengyi frowned slightly, "You mean, all of her behavior today was a disguise?" But no matter how well someone disguises themselves, can they really imitate to such an extent? Plus, he had examined Luo Shu’s eyes carefully; the weakness that originated deep within the bones could not be faked.
Yet, his father’s words also made sense. He had clashed with Lu Hanmo a few times, and that man’s coldness seemed to be innate. With Luo Shu’s personality, how could she possibly approach him?
"Sometimes, what the eyes see isn’t necessarily the truth," Wutian Xinye said with an inscrutable smile, playing with the teacup in his hand. Maybe he should meet this woman himself.
"I understand!" Wutian Tengyi stood up and bowed deeply to Wutian Xinye.
Wutian Xinye smiled and nodded, waving his hand at Wutian Tengyi. Young people still needed to be tempered.
Luo Shu propped her head with her hands, blinking her large eyes as she stared at the ceiling, "I wonder if Hanmo has arrived? He must be worried not seeing me."
Thinking back to the day he carried her, a sweet smile curved her lips.
After several days of investigation, Lu Hanmo finally learned of the Divine Eagle Group’s address.
Silently, he approached the manor where Wu Cilang resided. With an agile leap, he vaulted into the manor.
Like a nimble panther, he quickly climbed a tree and hid within the shadows. Now, even if someone passed under the tree, they might not detect Lu Hanmo’s presence.
Lu Hanmo lay motionless on the trunk, carefully listening to the sounds around him. His strength had reached the Heavenly Primary Stage, so his vision, hearing, and sense of smell had increased manifold. With the slightest noise, he could hear it.
"Little babe, don’t run. Give me a kiss, hehehe..."
"Wu Cilang, you’re so naughty, I won’t let you kiss me."
"Won’t let me kiss? I’ll see if you still refuse after I catch you."
Lu Hanmo slightly frowned and, in a flash, leaped to another tree like a bolt of lightning, swiftly concealing himself again.
"Mr. Yuanshan, why do you think Young Master Wutian brought that woman back?"
"I don’t know!"
"That woman is so timid, really don’t know what that man sees in her?"
"Different folks, different strokes, I guess."
Lu Hanmo got the answer he wanted, quickly jumped down from the tree and soon disappeared into the night. If his guess was correct, that Young Master Wutian should be Wutian Tengyi. He never expected that the person behind the Divine Eagle Group would be Wutian Xinye. Wutian Xinye’s ambition was indeed immense!
The room was pitch dark except for the ticking of the clock, and there were no other sounds anymore.
Luo Shu found that the security outside had significantly tightened after an afternoon. What could make Wutian Tengyi suddenly make this decision? Had he discovered her disguise?
Hearing the sound of a car starting up outside, Luo Shu quickly stood up and approached the window to look down.
She saw a middle-aged man with sparse hair, exuding an aura of authority, bending down to get into the car.
"Where could he be going this late?" Luo Shu wondered. She took out an Invisibility Talisman and leaped from the window. To facilitate her movement, she didn’t close the window. With such tight security downstairs, if she hadn’t had the Invisibility Talisman, she wouldn’t dare to jump so brazenly out of the window. Being discovered was a minor issue, but losing the clue to the secret base would be a real loss.
Luo Shu strode past everyone and headed towards the main building. If there was any information about the secret base here, it would likely be kept in the study or the bedroom.
Entering the main building, Luo Shu first took a tour on the ground floor and found that there were no bedrooms or studies.
On the second floor, she listened carefully and heard someone in only the third room; the other rooms were empty.
Reaching the first room, Luo Shu quickly and quietly slid the door open and slipped inside. The doors were all made of wood and slid to open, with no locks in place.
She gently closed the door and affixed a Talisman to it. Luo Shu scrutinized the room. It was obviously a bedroom, with simple furnishings. Apart from a row of wardrobes, there was only a tatami mat on the floor.
