Chapter 1329

She dialled a number on her phone.

Meanwhile, she headed out to meet Alexander Foster.

The location was within The Great Mountain, about thirty kilometers away. Its harsh terrain kept the mountain roads intertwined, often leading to disorientation for those who dared to venture its depths.

As she sped on, a car suddenly cut across her path, forcing her to halt abruptly!

"Who’s that?!" Jerry River strained to see.

The door of the gray SUV opened to reveal a man with black boots, exuding an aura both wild and righteous.

He walked up to the front of her car, holding up his identification.

Chloe Collins’ eyes tightened: "He’s from the government."

Jerry squinted: "From the government? Why would they come looking for you?"

Chloe didn’t respond, her calm eyes unblinkingly fixed on the man outside the car. The atmosphere became tense.

She exited her vehicle and walked towards him.

The man extended his hand: "Young Miss Collins, I’m James Cunningham from the National Institute of Mysterious and Supernatural Phenomena Research, in charge of the BDR experiment subjects’ missing persons’ case. I’ve been keeping an eye on you for quite some time."

A hint of a smile played on his lips.

"And what, Captain Cunningham, do you want from me?"

He responded: "I just wanted to inform you that your two friends are safe now. They’re back with us. You no longer need to search for them. Our team will soon raid Laura Crawford’s hideout and rescue the victims."

Jerry heard this and quickly exited the vehicle: "Really? Where are they?!"

"They’ll be back soon."

No sooner had he finished speaking, a call came from Alexander Foster about his encounter with a team from Grearon.

Chloe glanced at Cunningham.

Cunningham smiled, "See? I didn’t lie to you. We’ve been watching this case for some time. When they captured those people, we followed the trail back to their hideout. We’ve taken them all at once."

His grin broadened, his gaze belying an unspoken threat.

Chloe found it strange, "Captain Cunningham, did you stop me just to tell me this?"

Cunningham raised an eyebrow: "What else did Young Miss Collins think I could want?"

His gaze seemed probing.

Chloe lowered her eyes, unsure whether the polite authorities had already caught all of her actions. Perhaps they were even baiting her now.

Without saying more, she simply responded, "Thank you."

After she finished speaking, she turned to go back to her car.

Cunningham took a step forward and leisurely blocked her path, "Young Miss Collins!"

As their eyes met, it almost felt like both sides were quietly testing each other, ready to unleash their power at any moment.

Finally, Cunningham’s eyes softened. He smiled, "You’re injured. Use this."

In his hand, a Band-Aid suddenly appeared.

Following his gaze, Chloe looked at her hand and noticed a two-centimeter long scratch that had started to bleed.

Scarlet blood seeped out, emitting a faint metallic aroma.

She accepted the Band-Aid: "Thank you."

Cunningham: "We’ll meet again when the occasion arises."

His smile deepened as he looked at her intensely before turning to get back in his car.

The vehicle sped off into the distance, like a wild beast that couldn’t be tamed.

Jerry came over, "When did you get hurt? The wound couldn’t have been more than five minutes old!"

Chloe watched the retreating vehicle and said, "He scratched me to test."

"On purpose?"

"Yes." Chloe turned and walked back to the car, her explanation was brief: "He’s started to suspect that I’m one of the experiment subjects. He doesn’t have enough evidence to confirm it, so he wanted to see if my blood is also pale red like the other subjects."
