Chapter 661: Detention

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At this moment, the car Tang Zhi was in was surrounded by police cars. There were dazzling red and blue lights all around, and the sirens were incessant. In the quiet night, it made people feel especially uneasy.

Miss, dont be agitated. Please cooperate with our investigation first.

After two police officers helped Tang Zhi out of the car, they realized that her hands and feet were covered in ligature marks.

As soon as Tang Zhis feet touched the ground, she subconsciously felt weak.

She subconsciously searched for s.h.i.+ Man in the crowd, but she realized that the drivers door had long been opened, and there was no one inside.

When this group of police surrounded her, s.h.i.+ Man knew that trouble would definitely be inevitable.

Therefore, she took advantage of the chaos and hid in the crowd. Before Liu Wei could find her, she quietly disappeared into the darkness.

Unexpectedly, before she could run far, she was stopped by a black car.

s.h.i.+ Man stopped in her tracks expressionlessly. It was not until the car door opened and she saw the familiar man get out of the car that her tense face suddenly relaxed.

How did you know I was here?

s.h.i.+ Man watched as the man got closer and closer to her, but she did not mind his approach at all.

Yi Zheng raised his hand and rubbed the top of her head. His tone was intimate and domineering. To be able to appear in time when my fiancee needs me and bring her home is something 1 should do as her fiancee.

You know my whereabouts like the back of your hand? s.h.i.+ Man narrowed her eyes. She clearly did not intend to let him fool her so easily.

Yi Zheng saw the seriousness on her face and his heart tightened slightly. He suddenly felt a little uncertain. Are you angry?

s.h.i.+ Man shook her head gently and said, No, youve indeed helped me a lot by appearing here now.

Yi Zheng heaved a sigh of relief and turned around to open the car door for her. Are we going home first?

Yes, Im done with my work. Of course, I have to go home. s.h.i.+ Man got into the car with a calm expression, but she realized that the man outside the car had not moved.

She tilted her head in surprise and realized that he was staring straight at her wrist.

s.h.i.+ Man followed his gaze and looked down. When she saw her bare wrist, her heart skipped a beat. I stored it in a safe place. 111 get it back tomorrow. 1 didnt lose it.

She subconsciously explained.

Yi Zheng raised his eyebrows in interest before sitting beside her. After closing the car door, he instructed the chauffeur to drive home.

The next day, s.h.i.+ Man went to the black market before reporting to the army.

Since that bracelet was the Yi familys heirloom, s.h.i.+ Man wanted to take it back as soon as possible to prevent any mishaps.

However, things did not go as smoothly as she had imagined.

It was as if the Netherworld Pavilion had not woken up in the morning. The entire building was silent. Only the attendant standing at the door was waiting for something.

This time, s.h.i.+ Man walked straight through the main door.

She had an official contract with the Netherworld Pavilion. She only wanted to take back what she had stored here. There was no need to sneak around.

When the attendant saw her, his chaotic eyes lit up, and he hurriedly welcomed her right on the heels of that. Miss, youre finally here. Our supervisor was just about to call you.

s.h.i.+ Man had only come to the Netherworld Pavilion once on the surface, but she did not expect this person to be waiting for her. She frowned and asked, Whats the matter?

The attendant nodded and said with an apologetic expression, Its like this. There was a serious malfunction in the system of the Netherworld Pavilion last night. The building where your items are stored happens to be within the malfunction range, so you cant retrieve your items for the time being before the system is repaired. However, our boss said that this is an internal problem of our Netherworld Pavilion. If you come to collect the goods during the period before the repair, we will give you the full storage fee.

s.h.i.+ Man raised her eyebrows slightly and said with a faint smile, Do you mean that you cant return it to me today?

The attendant smiled apologetically. Were deeply sorry for the inconvenience we caused you, but the data related to you is being urgently repaired. Once its repaired, well contact you immediately. If its not convenient for you to come and collect the goods, well also arrange a delivery service for you.

The measures taken by the Netherworld Pavilion after the malfunction were considered perfect.

However, the key to the problem was that s.h.i.+ Man was the one who caused the system to malfunction. No one knew better than her what this malfunction would affect.

She had not touched the stored doc.u.ments at all. Why was there a need to repair the portion of system data that belonged to her?

It seemed that the person behind the Netherworld Pavilion did not intend to let her take back the bracelet today.

Thinking of this, s.h.i.+ Man sneered.

The mastermind was probably deliberately making things difficult for her.

However, she really couldnt figure out what the person behind her could achieve by keeping the bracelet from her.

At this moment, on the top floor of the Netherworld Pavilion Masters control center building, the man in a Chinese tunic suit slowly fanned himself. Looking at the girl who was stopped by the surveillance cameras, he suddenly turned his head and instructed his secretary beside him, Keep a close eye on her movements after she leaves the black market and report to me in time..
