By this time, night had fallen, and in the dimly lit dusk, the temple was nearly deserted, especially as this was a temple in the mountains. By now, even the monks had gone to eat and rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three of them stood out conspicuously here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shao Ming eyed a public telephone not far away; if he wasn’t mistaken, the line of that phone had been out of service for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant that the kidnappers’ intended destination was definitely not here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, they would either take action right here, or they were simply fooling around with them for a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His men could only follow from a distance on the road, as getting too close would easily give them away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiao seemed quite carefree in contrast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of a sudden, a little bald Monk giggled as he ran over, stopping in front of Bai Xiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pressed his palms together in greeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spouted a long string of Burmese which Bai Xiao did not understand, but Zhuo Ma beside her did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuo Ma gave the little Monk ten bucks, who immediately pulled out a note from his pocket and handed it to Bai Xiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he turned and ran back to the dining hall, still giggling, for his meal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This little Monk said someone gave him a note to hand to the last female devotee to come pray here.

They’re just playing with us, telling us to head back to Mu Jie now, to a restaurant called ‘Old Dark Meat’ on the outskirts for dinner, and wait for their next instruction,” Bai Xiao passed the note to Zhuo Ma; there was nothing to hide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plainly put, they were just circling around to see if anyone was tracking them and how many were lurking in the shadows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was reconnaissance of the enemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quite adept at counter-surveillance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It looks like Bai Mei learned a lot in the past two years; even things that she had not grasped before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Bai Xiao realized she had been somewhat complacent; Bai Mei was still too formidable, growing too fast. Given time, Bai Mei might become her strongest opponent, no less formidable than Shang Kaiwen – after all, Shang Kaiwen has her concerns, while Bai Mei has none whatsoever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The trio got into the car, and Shao Ming spat disdainfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I really didn’t expect your family to produce such a capable person,” Shao Ming said as he drove down the mountain path on their return trip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since it was all mountain roads, they had to be cautious.
