Chapter 253 - 253 253 Sisters Reunited

253: Chapter 253: Sisters Reunited 253: Chapter 253: Sisters Reunited Nightfall descended, and the rumors of the Mothman spread wildly among the masses, fear stemming from the unknown, from the enigma that was the Mothman.

A dark shadow slowly stopped in front of a tall building, the same building Ye Shikai and Tianjing had infiltrated before.

Since yesterday, when Ye Shikai had rescued someone, the police had sealed off the three subterranean levels of the building, bafflingly, the five kidnappers had mysteriously disappeared.

The shadow darted into the building, not through the main entrance but through a secluded side door.

Once inside, it quietly descended toward the basement levels, as silent as a cat, causing no disturbance whatsoever.

Quickly, the shadow halted in front of a hidden wall, surveyed its surroundings, then slowly pushed open the wall and proceeded toward the third subterranean level.

“Really, all this hiding and dodging, it’s unbearable.

And that stupid cop, thinking he could actually trap me.” Under the dim light, the shadow revealed its true face—a delicate visage with a hint of disdain.

It was none other than Ji Yu.

“Is that so.” Suddenly, a faint voice came from the sofa, startling Ji Yu, who turned to look.

“Ji Yu, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, I knew you’d come back.” On the sofa, Ye Shikai, with a tired body, spoke indifferently.

“No, I should say, secret agent.” As soon as Ye Shikai’s words fell, Ji Yu’s face tensed, her brows furrowed, and she slowly pulled out a dagger from behind her.

“How did you know?” Ji Yu didn’t deny it, her voice cold, a stark contrast to her previous carefree attitude.

“I suspected you from the moment I took you out of there.” Ye Shikai said slowly.

“Impossible, you couldn’t have guessed it was me that early on.” Ji Yu’s expression twisted grotesquely as if her schemes were being pierced through, and she abruptly pointed the dagger at Ye Shikai.

“Indeed, you were kidnapped, and we left in a hurry.

I hadn’t considered it, but when we arrived at the hotel,” Ye Shikai stood up and said slowly, “I recalled something suspicious.”

“What suspicious thing?” A chill seemed to emanate from Ji Yu’s bright eyes.

Ye Shikai didn’t answer, walking slowly to the emergency exit, tapping it lightly twice.

Ji Yu’s pupils shrank; when she had left, she made a fatal mistake—how could she, supposedly kidnapped, know there was an escape route there?

“So how do you know I was really kidnapped and not just acting?” Ji Yu asked.

“The moment I took off your blindfold, I saw fear in your eyes, genuine fear, not something you could fake.

And you immediately dragged me to escape through the emergency exit; you must have truly panicked, right?” Ye Shikai said in a subdued tone, “Especially someone as crafty as you wouldn’t make such a mistake if you weren’t genuinely afraid.”

“Fine, considering you saved my life, leave now and don’t disclose my identity to anyone outside.

We’ll call it even,” Ji Yu put away her dagger and lay directly on the sofa.

“No, I need your help.” Ye Shikai’s eyes flashed with urgency, “I need you to give me all the data on the Mothman from these past two days.”

“Impossible, nobody is in a position to bargain with me.” Ji Yu said disdainfully, then gloated, “I suppose you, the great detective, can’t possibly solve the mystery of the Mothman without my help, right?”

“You…

sigh, you’re right, so I need your help.” Ye Shikai couldn’t deny it; he was desperate, with the secret agent being the only breakthrough in the “Mothman” case.

“I refuse.” Ji Yu turned her head away.

“Do you know, yesterday, Huatao Bridge collapsed, killing fifty-three people.

It has to be related to the Mothman.” Ye Shikai suddenly yelled.

“What does their life or death have to do with me?” Ji Yu said disdainfully.

Ye Shikai clenched his fists tightly, a bit angry, to think that she could talk about human lives in such an indifferent manner, but reason told Ye Shikai that now was not the time to teach him a lesson.

“I’ll give you ten billion, you give me the information.

How about it?” Ye Shikai held back his anger, deciding to make a deal with her.

“No way.

Although I am a spy and make money from intelligence, I don’t take every job.

The information on Mothman is a hot potato, releasing it could cause trouble.” Ji Yu poured herself a glass of water from the table, then said, “So, no matter how much money, I won’t sell.”

“Ah…

If you weren’t her sister, I’d really like to hit you.” Ye Shikai helplessly shook his head.

“Wait, what did you say?

You know my sister?

Tell me quickly, where is she?” Suddenly, Ji Yu stood up from the sofa “plop” and grabbed Ye Shikai’s arm, asking eagerly.

“Of course I know her.” Ye Shikai pointed behind Ji Yu, “Turn around and have a look.”

Ji Yu turned her head with some confusion, and when she saw the familiar face, she was so surprised that she shed tears of joy.

“Sister.” Ji Yu, like a little girl, happily threw herself into Ji Qian’s arms, and Ye Shikai felt somewhat gratified, it seemed that the sisters hadn’t seen each other for a long time.

Ji Qian was still dressed in white chiffon long dress, like a fairy, the cold expression on her face finally showed a rare smile as she gently stroked Ji Yu’s little head.

“Sister, I finally found you.

Where have you been these past few years?” Ji Yu cried with joy, burying her head in Ji Qian’s embrace like a kitten.

“How about it, I brought your sister over, can you give me the information now?” Ye Shikai sat on the sofa, looking meaningfully at the two sisters.

“Yu, be good, give the information to him.” Ji Qian said lightly.

“Okay, I agree.” Ji Yu agreed without hesitation, leaving Ye Shikai speechless.

He didn’t expect the sister’s impact to be so great; the previously resolute Ji Yu simply “surrendered” now.

“But that information is not here, it’s at another one of my strongholds.” Ji Yu said somewhat embarrassedly.

“No problem, just take us there.” Ye Shikai nodded and said.

The three of them left the building, Ji Yu jumped around like a little butterfly, while Ye Shikai and Ji Qian walked side by side.

“I really thank you for this time, even making you come all the way to Yanjing in person.” Ye Shikai looked apologetic.

“No worries, you know I wouldn’t refuse your request.

Besides, I’ve been following this case closely.” Ji Qian smiled shyly.

“Yanjing, you must not have been back for a long time.” Ye Shikai looked up at the sky and said.

“Four years, except for the last auction.” There was a touch of melancholy in Ji Qian’s tone, “I heard that Huatao Bridge has collapsed.”

“Yes, just yester…”

“Ah!” Before Ye Shikai could finish, he was interrupted by a shriek, and his heart immediately jumped into his throat; that was unmistakably Ji Yu’s scream.
