There were no other accidents along the way. Yin Xun and Fang Yao soon arrived at the place where they had agreed to meet Mary.

At the same time, Tan Ai and Shu Yi, who were following behind them, also arrived. They parked the car and got out.

The driver had turned off the headlights before they drove over the final stretch, so they would not be noticed by the other party. After all, in the darkness, any bit of light seemed out of place and was easy to spot.

Although it was already nighttime, the air was still slightly hot and moist. Yin Xun took a deep breath. The air was so humid; it seemed like it was going to rain.

Mary, who was hiding at the side, heard the commotion and secretly looked over. At the same time, she received a message from Yin Xun. Realizing that it was Yin Xun, she hurried over.

“President Yin, the place that Si Xia and I agreed on is about four hundred meters from here.” Mary walked in front of Yin Xun and greeted Tan Ai and Shu Yi before speaking.

As for Fang Yao, she had never seen him before and did not know who he was. Hence, she only smiled and nodded in greeting.

Fang Yao was expressionless. He only nodded slightly and did not move. He did not intend to introduce himself.

“Tan Ai, give it to her.” Yin Xun called out to Tan Ai, then said to Mary, “Very good, let’s stop further away to avoid being discovered. Mary, it’s always been you who contacted Si Xia. She doesn’t know that we’re working together, so you have to pick up your brother yourself. We’ll follow you from behind. I’m not sure if Si Xia will prepare an ambush. How about this? Turn on the voice communication and I’ll turn off the microphone on my side. That way, I can hear your conversation. Don’t hang up. If anything abnormal happens, we’ll go over and help you at once.”

As Yin Xun spoke, Tan Ai took out a new phone from her bag and handed it to Mary.

“Use your own phone normally. This new phone has a call function and is hidden in your bag. Don’t worry, the phone also has a GPS function. Even if you’re taken away by them, I’ll know where you are. Try to look natural. Don’t let Si Xia notice anything amiss. Just act like usual.” Yin Xun went forward and gently patted Mary’s shoulder, signaling for her to relax and not be nervous.

“Thank you, President Yin.” Mary’s eyes were red as she looked at Yin Xun. Even her voice was trembling as she thanked her.

She did not expect Yin Xun to do this for her. Just letting her borrow her bodyguard was already very generous. Now that she had personally come to help, Mary did not know how to thank her. She could only remember this gratitude forever.

“Go,” Yin Xun urged her.

Mary nodded. “Okay.”

Mary had only taken a few steps when her phone rang. She immediately picked it up and turned on the speaker mode. Si Xia’s impatient voice instantly resounded in the darkness. “Mary, why aren’t you here yet? I’m getting anxious, you know?! If my brother finds out, not only will your little brother not be freed, but you’ll be arrested too. Do you think I’m lying?”

“I’m heading over. Wait for me. I’ll be there soon,” Mary said, picking up speed.

The warehouse had been abandoned for many years. Weeds grew all over the place, and some even reached Mary’s waist. With the faint light from her phone, she used a lot of effort to pass through the grass and enter the warehouse.

It was pitch-black inside. Mary shone her phone around and saw that the warehouse was huge and quiet. Even her footsteps sounded particularly loud. “Si Xia?” Mary called out softly.

Since Si Xia said she was here, she should have found the right place. However, the surroundings were too quiet. The phone’s brightness was limited and could only illuminate a small area around her. The surroundings were still pitch-black and she was inexplicably afraid.

Mary walked a little further in, then stopped, not daring to continue. The warehouse was quiet. There was no sound at all. It did not look like Si Xia was here.

Mary wanted to ask Yin Xun what she should do, but she remembered that she could not expose Yin Xun’s presence. She resisted the urge to take the other phone and turned to walk out.

On the other side, Yin Xun, Fang Yao, and the others had been quietly listening to Mary’s movements.

“Strange, Si Xia was telling Mary to hurry up just now. She sounded so anxious, so why isn’t there any movement now? Could it be that she’s lying to Mary?” Yin Xun wondered aloud.

Fang Yao shook his head and pointed at his phone. “Maybe Si Xia was worried that Mary would bring someone else over, so she wanted to wait and see. After all, kidnapping isn’t a small matter. Once it’s discovered, everyone involved will be done for..”
