The Inconceivable Flame: A Fallen Angel“s Disguise-Chapter 275 A Walk Back To The Cage?
In a room filled with screening monitors, a tall man was keeping an eye on the two 'prisoners' with a complex look.
\"Captain,\" he heard a female voice from beside him but his stiff expression didn't change even for a second as if he didn't even hear the voice. Seemingly used to his reaction, the other person continued solemnly, \"What are we supposed to do with these two?\"
The man rubbed his bottom lip with his index finger. \"Number 104 is still resisting?\" He seemed rather intrigued as his eyes stared at the screen which showed Lily's small figure curled up and trying to fight her own consciousness with all her willpower. Seeing her fighting to hold on to her humanity, his eyes glinted, \"Interesting. It's been years I have seen someone resisting the drug for so long.\"
\"Captain, do you mean someone actually managed to resist before?\" asked the female subordinate incredulously. She knew the effects of the drug. It was more like a curse that could devour any person's humanity and turn that one into a mere puppet. She had seen hundreds of people like that in the organization. But none of them managed to fight this curse.
The man let out a low chuckle. \"Resist? Oh, I have seen even better. That person was special and extraordinary. She didn't just manage to resist the drugs, she even managed to break the shackles of that drug on her consciousness all on her own.\" While the girl beside him was shocked by his revelation, she didn't notice how his eyes dimmed while he murmured to himself, \"Four...\" he sighed out sadly, \"You're truly extraordinary. Even after years, they're still trying to create another you not knowing that there was only one you.\"
\"What happened to that test subject?\" asked the girl hesitantly.
The man turned to look at her as he shook his head, \"She left.\"
\"Hmmm... Only death can let one escape Black Mamba,\" said the female as if she understood everything.
However, the man laughed at her reaction and turned to leave with a shrug of his shoulders. Walking along the long hallways, he breathed out, \"Died? The last of Ximen clan died at the hands of mere an organization? Tsk. Tsk. How naive these people are!\"
He stood outside a white door and cleared through the security check before entering. Behind the seemingly small door hid a huge hall filled with experimental instruments and apparatus that could only be found in high-tech government research facilities. His eyes fell on a long line of 'test subjects' chained up against the beds and he could only sigh in his heart.
While passing through, he greeted tens of doctors who were busy carrying out their experiments on human bodies. Finally, he arrived at the very end and placed his identification card on the electronic machine. As his identification cleared, a passageway opened up through the wall. He walked inside and found the person he had been looking for.
\"Madam,\" he saluted the woman with politeness and submission.
The woman who held a green liquid in her hand didn't spare him an eye as she inquired, \"What brought you here, Yu?\"
The man who was addressed as Yu replied calmly, \"There is no change in number 104. She is still holding on.\"
The woman's eyes flashed with indignance. \"Hmm... The little bird learned to fly in the last half-year as she stayed away from her cage.\" Her lips curled up into a sinister smile. \"But just because she grew a new pair of wings doesn't mean we can't cut it again.\"
If one looked carefully at the woman's face, they'd be able to find uncanny resemblance with Ji Caihong's features. Except that Ji Caihong's eyes held the purest form of innocence while this middle-aged woman's eyes looked extremely cruel and evil. Indeed, she was none other than Ji Caihong's mother, Ling Qiaolian.
\"Yu.\"
\"Yes, Madam!\"
\"Bring number 104 on a walk in the woods,\" instructed the Ling Qiaolian with amusement dancing in her eyes.
Yu seemed confused and uncertain as he inquired, \"Madam wants me to free her from the prison cell?\"
\"To let a bird walk back into its cage, one has to cut down its desire of freedom,\" replied Ling Qiaolian. As Yu heard her plan, his eyes widened but he could only nod. As he turned to leave, she stopped him, \"Yu, have you heard anything from Yiyi's side?\"
Yu slumped his shoulders and shook his head, \"No, Madam. Miss Tang's whereabouts are still unknown. We can't get in touch with anyone from her side. Even the people I sent to find her haven't been back. I believe that...\" He didn't dare continue his conjecture. On second thought, \"But Miss Tang's abilities are second to only you. Even if she encountered an unfavorable situation, she'll be able to resist.\"
\"I'm not worried about that. It's just that her target this time was Xie Rong. That tricky bastard definitely has a connection with that abominable Alve Knight. I want both of them dead before they could come to us.\" Her voice held an extreme coldness and viciousness.
Even Yu knew that Tang Yiyi's target had been Xie Rong for months, however, she was always defeated by the other side. In fact, in Tang Yiyi's own words, Xie Rong was like a cunning fox that always managed to slip away from her hands. If she was smart, the other side could be considered an aberrant.
Even if he didn't know who this Xie Rong or Alev Knight was but he certainly admired both who single-handedly managed to become a headache for an organization like theirs.
\"You act on the instruction, I still have to think of some countermeasures. We can't risk any slight mistake,\" she shooed him away while she stayed behind. Holding the white curtain, as she pulled it to a side, a fair teenager could be seen lying on the bed. His eyes were closed while his face seemed lifeless.
She ran a hand over his face as she whispered, \"Don't blame me for being ruthless, Little Yuan. It's just that you're the perfect bait to lure your brother here. And only my perfect subject can help me seize the Ji Family.\"
Meanwhile, as Yu came out he went towards the prison cells. The guards outside greeted him with respect and fear while he acted oblivious to their reactions.
\"What brought captain here?\" asked one of them.
\"Take the prisoners out,\" he ordered. \"We're taking them on a tour through our territory.\"
