Chapter 70: Where is Everyone?
Chapter 70 – Where is Everyone?
Saturday, Jinzhou City, midnight:
The night was dark, and the wind was strong. It was the perfect time to commit a crime.
Both Chen Yu and Little Peach wore dark clothing bought from abroad and were ready to go.
“Little Peach, as we discussed before, you’ll enter using invisibility first. If there is no danger, look at the camera outside and signal an OK. If there are any abnormalities, come back immediately.”
“I understand, Mr. Chen.”
“How many times have I told you to call me Chen Yu?”
“Very well, Mr. Chen.” Little Peach nodded. She then activated her invisibility function and vanished instantly, leaving behind only a one-piece dress hovering in mid-air.
“Don’t tear it! That’s my sister’s! She’ll kill me if you tear it!”
“Okay.”
After Little Peach took off her dress, she became thoroughly invisible.
Bending down, Chen Yu picked up the dress and walked up to the door. He then started bending space, connecting the Interstellar Portal to the 5-star hotel suite where “a certain group” was staying.
“The link is complete. Pay attention to your safety.”
Taking a step back, Chen Yu slowly pulled apart the door before him, revealing a hotel suite’s living room.
Creak... Creak...
With light steps, Little Peach slipped into the suite. A moment later, Chen Yu immediately closed the door. He then raised his watch and started earnestly looking at the image displayed on its screen.
After two minutes of waiting, Little Peach removed her invisibility and made an “OK” gesture to the camera hovering outside the suite’s window. Seeing this, Chen Yu focused his mind and pushed open the door before him without hesitation. He then stepped across the folded space and appeared inside the hotel suite’s living room.
Click.
After quietly shutting the door, Chen Yu tossed his sister’s one-piece dress back to Little Peach. He then picked up the Interstellar Portal and walked into the middle-aged team leader’s bedroom.
Inside the bedroom, the middle-aged team leader was currently deep asleep on his bed, a stack of papers sitting on the bedside table.
“Shh.”
After signaling for Little Peach to remain silent, Chen Yu carefully slid his finger across the Interstellar Portal’s holographic projection.
A short moment later, Chen found a suitable location and established a spatial link. He then slowly opened the Interstellar Portal and gestured for Little Peach to help him carry the Interstellar Portal. They then pressed the door down on the sleeping middle-aged man...
In the next moment, both the middle-aged team leader and his bedding disappeared, leaving behind only an empty bed.
“Success!”
Breathing out a sigh of relief, Chen Yu stopped suppressing his voice and did a high five with Little Peach. “That’s one down! Now, all we need is to send that Big Sis Wu and Xiao Li away. We’ll ignore everyone else. They’re not important, and it’s a waste of energy.”
“Alright.”
“Move out!”
“Mr. Chen, I have something to say, but I don’t know if I should.”
“What?”
“Is... Is it really fine for us to do this?” Little Peach hesitantly asked while pinching the hem of her dress.
“What’s wrong about it? If I don’t vent some stress, I’ll get hemorrhoids at this rate. Whatever you learn from me is definitely correct. You head to the next room. I need to handle something here.”
“Mhm.” Little Peach helplessly nodded. She then took off her dress and entered her invisible mode before heading to another room.
Meanwhile, Chen Yu walked up to the bedside table, put on a pair of gloves, and flipped through the documents. After getting a good idea of the investigation team’s current operations and plans, he set aside the papers and stepped through the Interstellar Portal.
...
Whoosh...
After stepping through the Interstellar Portal, Chen Yu arrived at an area filled with wind and sand. The time here was roughly four or five in the afternoon, and the sky was still very bright.
Currently, the middle-aged team leader remained asleep while covered by his blanket.
Lifting his head, Chen Yu noticed that there was a small village some distance away. He then took out a small recorder he purchased abroad set the timing for it to play. Afterward, he tossed a mobile phone, which he had grabbed from the bedside table, beside the middle-aged man, before turning around and leaving through the Interstellar Portal.
Whoosh... Whoosh...
Amidst the flying sand, the Interstellar Portal swiftly disappeared...
...
[Tunak tunak Tun, Tunak tunak Tun, Tunak tunak Tun, Da Da Da!]
[Tunak tunak Tun, Tunak tunak Tun, Tunak tunak Tun, Da Da Da!]
[Dholna, vaje tumbe val taar]
[Soode dil de pukar...]
A strange melody entered the middle-aged team leader’s ears, the song gradually waking up the man from his slumber.
[Dholna, vaje tumbe val taar]
[Soode dil de pukar...]
Abruptly sitting up and opening his eyes, the middle-aged team leader’s neck stiffened as he looked at his surroundings in astonishment.
Currently, surrounding him was a group of black people that had painted faces and clad in fur. There were both men and women, young and old among the group, and every one of these people were staring at him with strange gazes.
“This... This... Where the hell is this place?!
“And who are you people?!”
[Dholna, vaje tumbe val taar]
[Soode dil de pukar...]
[Tunak tunak Tun, Tunak tunak Tun, Tunak tunak Tun, Da Da Da...]
Turning off the playing recorder with a forceful push, the middle-aged team leader nervously stood up and executed a standard military bearing. He then slowly backed away as he repeated, “Who are you?”
“?????????”
Afroasiatic languages? The middle-aged man gradually calmed down upon hearing the other party speaking. After remaining silent for a short moment, he spat out a single word, “????????”
The other party clearly did not understand the middle-aged team leader’s “wild” Arabic. Hence, one of the slightly taller black men stood forward and asked in English, “Do you speak English?”
“Yes! Where is this?”
“Africa.”
Africa?! The middle-aged man grew startled at this revelation. Why am I in Africa?!
“Are you Chinese?”
Although the black man was still asking questions, the middle-aged team leader no longer had the energy to answer.
After pacing around for a short while, the middle-aged team leader picked up the satellite phone Chen Yu left for him and hurriedly dialed a number.
Beep...
Beep...
“Hello?! Xiao Li?”
“Leader! It’s me! I was just about to call you!”
When the call connected, Xiao Li’s crying voice came from the other end of the receiver.
The middle-aged team leader’s heart trembled upon hearing Xiao Li’s voice. Sensing a bad premonition, he asked, “Did you get abducted as well?”
“Lea-Leader, you...got abducted as well?”
“Mhm,” the middle-aged man answered, gritting his teeth. “Where are you now?”
“I... I think I’m in Siberia... You?”
“I’m in Africa.”
“...”
“...”
The two people remained silent for some time, both of them at a loss for words.
“Leader, this... Just what is going on?”
“It is definitely Transdimensional Review’s doing!” the team leader said, a hint of fear spreading in his heart.
In just a few short minutes, and at most, a dozen minutes, Transdimensional Review had relocated him from Jinzhou City to Africa...
Just what kind of godly powers were required to accomplish such a feat?
If the other party was capable of bringing him to Africa, they could naturally send him to the Atlantic Ocean next time...
“Leader...” Crying for real this time, Xiao Li asked, “Just what kind of existence are we investigating?”
“Calm down, Xiao Li. Are there any people near you?”
“Yes. There’s a small village nearby.”
“There’s one on my side as well. It doesn’t seem like the other party intends to harm us. They’re just giving us a warning. This matter is too terrifying. We must notify the higher-ups as soon as possible!”
Bzzz—
At this time, another person interrupted the satellite communication between the two of them.
After connecting the incoming call, the middle-aged team leader quickly heard Big Sis Wu’s trembling voice coming from the receiver, “Lea-Leader, I got...”
“Xiao Li and I got abducted. I’m in Africa, and Xiao Li is in Siberia. Where are you? Are you in danger?!”
“...” After a moment of silence, Big Sis Wu said, “...I’m in the White House.”
The middle-aged team leader: “...”
Xiao Li: “...”
“Inside the President’s bedroom,” Big Sis Wu added.
The middle-aged team leader: “...”
Xiao Li: “...”
