Chapter 649: Playing God and Acting Like a Devil 2

He hadn't run the first time, so he was even less afraid the next time.

There was nothing to be afraid of.

And so, this attempt failed as well—Jian Yining still hadn't been scared off.

Try again.

Try again.

Try again.

Finally, the people underground lost their patience and refused to cooperate again.

Jian Yining had already grown accustomed to it; since he wasn't afraid, there was no point in doing this anymore.

The woman hiding in the reed marsh was very angry, stamping her feet in frustration, but there was nothing she could do.

At this moment, the Clan Leader sent an instruction: "Come back and put on your makeup; use the second plan."

"Yes, Clan Leader," the servant said with her head bowed.

There was a Bluetooth device hidden in her clothes.

What Jin Wan'er had seen was the servant using "ventriloquism" to speak; it looked mysterious but was actually very simple.

It was just relying on a Bluetooth device and a miniature recording device.

The words she wanted to say were recorded beforehand and placed under her collar, then played for Jin Wan'er to hear, just like ventriloquism.

The purpose was to increase the sense of mystery and lure the Young Master to go back with them!

It was just that the Young Master did not appreciate these "painstaking efforts."

This person quietly returned to the underground Architecture, put on a snow-white outfit, and applied thick foundation to her face, making it look deathly pale.

Her long hair was let down, draped behind her head.

She stood in front of the mirror, took only one look, and hurried away.

It was too terrifying; she had even scared herself.

Ji Yingjie encouraged her: "Keep it up, you will definitely have no problem. You must believe in yourself; your opponent is just a stinky man, not scary at all."

"Men are all cowardly creatures, hypocritical and selfish."

"Don't mind that he wasn't scared by you just now; that's because he doesn't know the power of a tornado. The ignorant are fearless..."

The brainwashing was very successful.

Ji Yingjie's words made her wavering conviction firm once again, firmly believing that this time when she went out, she would definitely scare Jian Yining out of his wits.

In the reed marsh.

Jian Yining stood where he was and thought for a while; he felt that this gust of wind had come very strangely.

However, there were too many strange things in this place, so he didn't think too much about it!

Finding the person was more important.

Large raindrops pelted down, hitting him head-on.

And while it was raining, he discovered something that looked like an Air Raid Shelter in front of him.

It was too magical; he had already circled this area many times and hadn't discovered this cave. Where did it come from?

Jian Yining walked toward the cave entrance step by step!

"Ah!"

A bolt of lightning flashed, and suddenly a clawing and baring "female ghost" appeared in front of him, pouncing toward him!

Jian Yining instinctively picked up the stick in his hand and struck at the "female ghost"!

She was startled, turned around, and ran.

Jian Yining took off in pursuit!

In the Monitoring Room.

Ji Yingjie saw all of this and was furious: "Trash, useless thing. You can't even handle such a small matter. What use are you to me?"

"Damn man, he's not even afraid of a ghost. Does he want to ascend to heaven?"

Since her subordinate had failed, she decided to take action herself.

The "ghost" that Jian Yining was chasing ran while howling; the "ghost" was exhausted, and he was worn out too.

But he didn't give up, shouting as he ran: "Stop!"

"Where is Jin Wan'er?"

"Where did you take my wife?"

With someone playing god and acting like a devil in a place like this, given Jian Yining's intelligence, it was easy to guess that this "ghost" must be the person who kidnapped his wife.

If it weren't, she would have refuted it.

But she didn't; the "ghost" ran even faster.

He had only heard of thieves having a guilty conscience; it turned out that being a "ghost" also involved having a guilty conscience.

He wouldn't let go of a clue he had finally managed to grasp. Jian Yining had been a long-distance running champion back in school and had continued to exercise, so his endurance was excellent.

But even using all his strength, he still maintained a certain distance from the "female ghost" in front.

She ran too fast and was very familiar with the terrain; in the end, she still managed to shake off Jian Yining and disappeared without a trace!

Where was the person?

No, where was the "ghost"?

Now it was truly the case that there wasn't even a ghost of a shadow to be seen.

He was not discouraged; although the person had run away, she had left traces behind.

The footprints on the ground are clear and distinct; I just need to follow them.

Walking and walking, the footprints disappear in front of a small mound of earth!

Hmm?

Looking at the plain and unremarkable mound, it seems like it might be a mechanism.

The surrounding reeds are different from those elsewhere, and the mound looks like it can be opened.

Perhaps there is a secret chamber underneath!

Jian Yining remembers attending a wedding at a distant relative's house when he was a child.

There was a cellar in the courtyard of the relative's house.

The cellar was covered with a wooden board on top, but there was a large space underneath.

That was the first time he had seen a cellar; he was very curious and asked what it was and what it was used for.

The relative told him it was called a cellar, warm in winter and cool in summer.

The cellar was used to store vegetables and fruits, and they could stay fresh all winter without spoiling!

Thinking of this, his heart pounded violently.

Could his wife be down there?

He cannot wait for his subordinates to bring people; he prepares to find the entrance himself and go in to take a look.

The shape of the mound is like a large comma; observing carefully, a piece of metal sticks out at the tail of the "comma."

It looks like a steel plate, but not quite.

The part of the metal material exposed is very small, about the size of a spoon, and it is also hidden by reeds, so it would be impossible to discover without looking closely.

Jian Yining squats on the ground to study this piece of metal carefully.

He presses down, but it does not budge.

He lifts upward, and it still does not budge!

He notices that this material is much better than ordinary steel plate; it seems to be aerospace material.

Tianma Group's industries in the United States involve the aerospace sector, and this metal looks the same as the material used to build airplanes!

Jian Yining gasps.

Using aerospace material to make a bunker for a cellar?

If it really is a cellar underneath, then the kidnappers are far too wealthy.

Since neither up nor down works, he tries pushing to the left—no use.

Only one direction remains.

"Hoo—"

He stands up and takes a deep breath, just about to make the final attempt—"Bang!"

Jian Yining is struck heavily on the back of his head, and before he passes out, he turns to see a face similar to his wife's!

Who am I?

Where is this?

How did I get here?

Jian Yining wakes up, and all around him are snow-white walls!

After the initial confusion, he remembers that he was ambushed and knocked unconscious by a woman who looked very much like his wife.

The back of his head still hurts a lot, and it is sticky, which should be blood, but it has not been bandaged.

The blood has already scabbed over.

The surroundings are snow-white, but it does not look much like a hospital!

If he were in a hospital, it would not be right for no one to tend to the injury on his head, and they would not have tied up his hands and feet!

Jian Yining lies on the hospital bed, his hands and feet firmly restrained.

The Hospital Ward is empty with only one bed, and the door is an iron door, the kind used for anti-theft!

There is only one very small window on the wall, and the window is fitted with bars as thick as a thumb.

Why is it so strange?

Soon, the answer comes.

The iron door opens, and several people looking like doctors and nurses come in with a "clatter," as if doing rounds.

But what they are holding in their hands are not stethoscopes or blood pressure monitors, but Rope and electric batons!

"Who are you? What are you doing?" Jian Yining shouts in terror.

"This is a psychiatric hospital; we are all doctors and nurses here, and we will not hurt you," a chubby female nurse says to him gently.

Her tone is just like coaxing a child.

"Be good, cooperate with us, and we won't hit you; we'll even give you candy, okay?"

Jian Yining:......

"I don't have a mental illness," he blurts out.
