--- At the secret base where Chu Jie, Ying Yue, Cocoa, and Long Hu were kept, another loud shrill echoed throughout the place. Xue Jingjing was thrown on the ground. She hit her elbows and knees as she collided on the ground that felt as if her bones almost broke. The men around her were dumbfounded. The guards who kidnapped Ying Yue exclaimed. "Hey, she is the same woman who escaped!" That immediately started murmurs. "Wohoo! So we got a double treat after all!" "This is freaking…

Time: 7:36 PM. Twenty-nine hours and fifty-four minutes left. --- *Xin Lei* It was already dark by the time we reached retired Major General Yu Zichen's home. Bro, Shi Ruiling, Luo Zhiqiang, and Liao Huifang chose to stay back and work with Qi Qiang if they could find anything about Zhang Xiulan and her mystery supporter. Major General Shi was with us. I rang the doorbell three times, and it opened as I saw a woman step out. She looked at the three of us in turns and asked, "Yes?" Bai Li said, "Is Yu…

Same time at Xin Lei's side. --- *Xin Lei* If I had been drinking water, then I would have surely spit it out by now. Bai Li and I both coughed at once. Dad was really something else. Bai Li and my child… "Dad!" Bro suddenly roared. "What are you saying? And Xin Lei. Snap out of your stupid dream already! I can see you must be imagining your children." I blushed and typed. "I wasn't thinking that!" Dad shrugged. "What did I say wrong? Lei Lei is also old enough to give me grandbabies. Isn't she…

Time: 6:02 PM. Thirty-one hour and twenty-eight minutes left. Impossible... It's impossible. Xue Jingjing slightly craned her neck to glance at Rodey amidst the tearing pain now coursing through her body. She was stunned to see such a handsome man before her, smiling coldly at her. For a moment, she couldn't breathe. His dark gaze, menacing yet breathtaking expression and that devilish smirk on his face made him look like the bad boy type where girls flocked around such guys. But then his increasing…

Time: 5:46 PM. Thirty-one hour, forty-four minutes left. --- *Xin Lei* "Lei Lei." I jumped into Dad's embrace when I saw his figure clad in the familiar black suit and trouser. I buried my face in his chest and hugged him hard. We landed Dongcheng just twenty minutes ago and immediately headed to where Dad was. Meeting him again felt as if such a long time had already passed. I rushed as soon as I stepped out of the car. Every step I ran made towards the room made me even more eager than ever to meet…

--- Time: 4:30 PM, 33 hours left. Ying Yue and Cocoa had their gazes locked and were staring at each other for God knows how long. She shifted a little in her place that caused him to bark. "Arf." Ying Yue stiffened a bit. Cocoa leaned to nudge his face on her, but she shifted to back. He was furiously wagging his tail, dissatisfied for not being able to nudge and lick her. "Ooowww…" he softly howled. Chu Jie observed their silent interaction and then looked at Ying Yue. "Are you afraid of…

--- *Xin Lei* "I am not able to contact Su Weiyuan anymore," Major General said. "How long?" Bai Li asked. "It's been two hours already. And you know that communication is the key. Neither cell phone is reachable nor radio." I typed. "So did any fight ensue between Su Weiyuan and the retired Major Yu Zichen? Maybe he is Tan Ye's culprit, and when Su Weiyuan confronted him, he attacked him to shut him up." Bai Li nodded. "Possible. What about Yu Zichen? Where is he? Or has he disappeared too?" "Nope.…

--- *Xin Lei* We were preparing to leave Tianjin. Since time was running short, Bro made arrangements for a flight for all to Beijing. It was a special airplane of the Intelligence Bureau that we could use to transport Duan Deming without any problem. There was a tight security prison to transport criminals across the air. "Hahaha! Once we land in Dongcheng, I am free! My gang will have surely sent someone by now to take me out," Duan Deming laughed like a maniac. "You losers! You cannot do anything!…

--- Beijing Military Commission. "Captain Su. Here are all the details you requested." Su Weiyuan raised his head from Tan Ye's autopsy report that he was going through. Sergeant Zi Mimi saluted. He nodded. "Keep it here. You have brought this information just as I told you, right?" She nodded. "Yes, Captain. I have brought this information secretly. Nobody knows about the request of Major Bai Li's mission files." "Leave." Sergeant Zi Mimi straightened up and left. Su Weiyuan read through the files.…

*** --- "...Are you alright?" Ying Yue's eyelids fluttered. "...wake up...sis…" She felt as if somebody was talking to her. But when she tried to open her eyes, she felt a numb pain course through her head. Then she felt as if somebody was gently shaking her shoulder. "Are you alright?" "Ugh…" Ying Yue fought the dull pain and slowly opened her eyes. At first, everything was dizzy and spinning in front of her eyes. She blinked her eyes more, and that hazy figure was beginning to…
