Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss - Chapter 1760
1760 Escalate Matters
It was quiet on the second floor in comparison to the chaotic scene at the banquet hall downstairs.
In the corridor, the maid who had shown Huo Yao to the room was lying on the ground with a pool of drying blood under her body. Judging from the condition of the body, she had probably died ten minutes ago.
“She was killed with a single shot.” Zhuo Yun could tell at a single glance how she died.
Huo Yulin’s face looked terribly dark as he squeezed his hands. He could not imagine what happened to his little sister.
!!
When he encountered kidnapping previously, he lost all hope and he could never forget that feeling in his life.
“She isn’t as frail as you think.” Min Yu detected Huo Yulin’s concerns and spoke calmly.
“I know,” replied Huo Yulin softly.
He already knew his little sister did not look as harmless as she appeared. All this time, he simply pretended not to know.
Before long, the three of them went separate ways to search for Huo Yao on the second floor. They went through each room and every hidden corner on the floor, but there was no sign of her.
There were not even any signs of fighting.
A few minutes later, the three of them met up again.
Huo Yulin finally lost his patience. He took out his phone, dialed a number, and said, “Seal all the exits of the count’s residence. No one is allowed to leave.”
After giving the order, he walked downstairs murderously.
“Boss, something might happen due to such an action.” Zhuo Yun watched as Huo Yulin walked downstairs furiously.
He pondered and asked. “Aren’t you going to stop Young Master Yulin?”
The count was different from normal elite families. Even though they had no conflict of interest, it all came down to power.
As the saying went, citizens should never oppose the government and royalty. Considering the event tonight, if any disputes arose right under the eye of these influential families, government officials, and elders, it was no different from slapping the royalty on their faces.
As for the consequences…
Min Yu laughed coldly. Even though he did not look as furious as Huo Yulin, his eyes were completely cold. “If Morey has the balls to pull this stunt, he should be prepared for the consequences.”
Min Yu turned to walk downstairs.
He had no intention of stopping Huo Yulin. Instead, he wanted to help. Zhuo Yun could not help pressing his brow.
He knew this would happen!
Zhuo Yun sighed. He retrieved his phone and called the deputy of the secret guards.
Fortunately, he had come prepared. It did not matter if they wanted to complicate matters. After all, the royalty could not do anything to the Weapons Bureau.
Meanwhile downstairs.
After Huo Yulin made the call, dozens of stern-looking subordinates swarmed in from the main entrance. They looked even more intimidating than soldiers.
It was a little chaotic in the hall, but the moment the guests saw these men, everyone went quiet, looking at the main entrance in shock.
Xie was walking at the lead. He quickly strode up in front of Huo Yulin and nodded. “Young Master Yulin.”
Countess Kerr was the first to snap out of the shock. She recognized the logo embroidered on the men’s clothes.
They were from the Huo family.
Countess Kerr promptly felt a little worried. She did not expect people from the Huo family to disregard courtesy and just barge in. After all, she was a princess and married to the count, so she quickly composed herself and walked up to Huo Yulin sternly.
“Young Master Yulin, what’s the meaning of this?” Countess Kerr spoke sternly.
“Where is she?” Huo Yulin looked at Countess Kerr expressionlessly.
“Who are you talking about?” Countess Kerr’s heart raced as she pretended she did not understand what he meant. “This is the count’s residence. Young Master Yulin is a guest, but you summoned your men inside. Are you sure about doing this?”
