The Master’s Mask Unveiled Again
Chapter 667 - Chapter 667 Chapter 667 Grandpa Mo Is Still Angry with Him

Chapter 667: Chapter 667: Grandpa Mo Is Still Angry with Him Chapter 667: Chapter 667: Grandpa Mo Is Still Angry with Him Lu Mian lazily got up, at this time, stripped of her black robe and mask, she looked every bit the young girl.

A scornful smile curled at the corners of her mouth, and she laughed.

“Let’s go.”

On the way back, Wa Zhiqi and Wang Xintong adamantly refused to let Lu Mian drive again; her lightning-fast driving had left such a psychological mark on them that they would die before getting into her car again.

Wa Zhiqi, holding onto his nearly bursting wound, took his seat at the wheel with a determination that said nobody else should even think of taking it from him.

Lu Mian was content with the quiet, taking the passenger seat.

As the scenery outside the car window receded, Lu Mian, for once, appreciated the view, casually spinning the phone issued by the Shencheng Office in her hand, her thoughts drifting.

She noticed the French parasol trees by the road.

And she remembered the man who stood under the French parasol tree outside the school gate, hands in his pockets, who had elegantly told her, “Lu Mian, let’s go home.”

At this time, Director Qimo must be in Jinjing attending a meeting, right?

They had been apart for twenty-eight hours.

When Lu Mian realized she remembered this detail so clearly, her slightly upturned lips suddenly paused.

She shouldn’t be thinking about this now!

What she should be focusing on was how to complete her task as quickly as possible.

That way…

she could go back to see Director Qimo sooner.

On the other side, Xiao Qimo, Mo Fan, Daine, and the two men brought by Daine took a private plane to personally inspect the site.

The branch offices were scattered in various locations and required some time to visit.

But in two days, Xiao Qimo had already visited three crime scenes, incredibly efficient.

Daine and his two subordinates were exhausted, not even ten boxes of spicy strips could bring back their happiness.

Mo Fan, on the other hand, didn’t show much reaction, always sporting that same cold, expressionless face.

Daine mustered the courage to discuss with Xiao Qimo whether they could rest for one night before heading to the next location, to prevent everyone from being worn out.

However, before he could even fully express his thoughts, Xiao Qimo made an unusual decision.

Go back to the Shencheng Office.

“Mr.

Xiao, why?

Aren’t we going to look at the last two sites?”

“No, we’re not.”

Xiao Qimo didn’t explain why, and Daine trusted him greatlyaEUR”he had already surveyed the sites before, so this trip was purely to accompany the big boss Xiao.

The workaholic man silently returned to the car.

The dim light inside the vehicle cast shadows on his chiseled, austere features, his thin lips pressed into a tight line, his deep, impenetrable eyes not revealing anything.

Daine, looking from outside the car, felt a start of alarm, sensing that his mood was off, and quickly grabbed Mo Fan, who was about to get in, and asked in not-so-fluent Chinese, “Mr.

Mo Fan, what’s wrong with Mr.

Xiao?

Is he in a bad mood?”

“Firstly.”

Only Mo Fan’s mouth moved on his expressionless face, “When we are outside, please refer to Mo Ye as Mr.

NovelFire.net.co

Qimo.”

“Yes, yes, yes…”

“Secondly, Mo Ye’s thoughts are not for us to speculate upon, just do as told.”

Mo Fan said this without a hint of emotion and then slid into the passenger seat, glancing back at Xiao Qimo, his expression calm, but his mind filled with tumultuous thoughts.

He knew that Mo Ye was still angry with him.

Just yesterday he had thought someone was impersonating Mo Ye and nearly came to blows, only to find out that this was indeed the genuine master.

Heaven knows he was about to draw his dagger at the time.

Anyway, from that point on, Mr.

Mo Fan’s complexion was never quite right.

He even wondered if Mr.

Mo Fan had heard his inner thoughts, which was why his expression was so sour…

Should he take the initiative to confess and sincerely apologize to Mr.

Mo Fan?

But would Mr.

Mo Fan forgive him if he confessed?

Forget it.

As long as I keep a poker face, Mr.

Mo Fan will never know I called him an idiot.

aEUR”aEUR”

Lu Mian and the others returned to the office and immediately convened an emergency meeting.

Normally, someone with Lu Mian’s logistics role would not be qualified to attend, but she had helped with recording the data today, so Wa Zhiqi asked for her to be allowed to observe.

There were four members able to attend the meeting, plus Wa Zhiqi, Wang Xintong, and Lu Mian, making a total of seven people.

One of the men, wearing sunglasses and smiling, said, “Captain Wa, do we have any progress this time?”

“Of course!”

Another slender, tall man wearing a hat lifted his cap to fix his hair and followed up, “Doctor Wang really helped us out this time.

Captain Ke must be happy!”

“Definitely, if it hadn’t been for her, we wouldn’t have even seen a common member, let alone the commander!”

“You actually saw the commander?”

Wa Zhiqi’s tone was quite proud.

“Sort of an accident, really.

The commander’s arrival was also mysterious, and he opened up the permissions for us unconditionally, allowing us to access all the data.” Wa Zhiqi finished with a laugh, “Anyway, I’ve got the data now, and the credit goes to Doctor Wang!”

“Wish I’d gone with you.

I’m quite keen on seeing IEG’s security system.” The man in the hat lifted it again, scratching his head.

This time he lifted his hat higher, easily revealing his male pattern baldness.

Wa Zhiqi didn’t find it strange.

The man in the hat was Sun Hui, and everyone usually called him Old Sun.

He was a computer expert, which was very understandable.

“Alright, take your seats now, Captain Ke is here.”

As they were speaking, an older, solemn man walked in.

As soon as he arrived, an air of steadfast determination and sharp integrity enveloped the room.

This was the experienced detective, Ke Weimin, whose upright posture indicated a long-term and strict discipline of himself.

“Stop chit-chatting and start the briefing.”

Ke Weimin temporarily led the meeting with no small talk, getting straight to the point.

Wa Zhiqi and Wang Xintong took turns reviewing all the data from the five sites, leaving virtually nothing for Lu Mian to add.

“From the data you’ve gathered, these five locations differ in latitude and longitude, building styles, some have surveillance, some do not.

They don’t appear to have anything in common,” Ke Weimin analyzed while sketching on the whiteboard, “The only similarity is that there were no witnesses when the victims mysteriously disappeared.”

“It truly is a bizarre disappearance, as if they were subjected to a spell and just became invisible.

The surveillance footage also shows they just disappeared suddenly without any signs of editing.”

Old Sun, wearing the hat, said this while opening up the existing surveillance footage and replaying the scenes of the incidents over and over.

“If science can’t explain it, why not turn to the supernatural?” the man with sunglasses joked.

Ke Weimin glared at him, clearly displeased with his unprofessional attitude.

Wa Zhiqi quickly tried to smooth things over, “If it were the supernatural, there wouldn’t be anyone stopping my investigation.”

His last gunshot wound wasn’t any coincidence.

“Is there any magnetic field information?” Ke Weimin inquired further.

Wa Zhiqi nodded, “Captain Ke, you’re right on target.

IEG’s data shows that there have been records of magnetic field anomalies at all five locations.

Everyone, remember the pavilion at Kunpeng School…”
