Chapter 1215: Chapter 1214: Cation Cannon
Jiang Cheng took out the Cation Cannon, "You guys stand back and cover your ears," Jiang Cheng said to the remaining three.
Only the sound of "boom" was heard, and the sturdy stone in front split open, the air was filled with the scent of stone and visible stone powder, Jiang Cheng covered his mouth but saw a black figure flash before him, Jiang Cheng quickly chased after it, only catching a glimpse of the black silhouette, which looked like a guy, slender in build, but disappeared quickly.
Jiang, where are you going?" Qi Rongfeng and Zhao Shuai also chased after him.
Saw another person, but soon they were gone, sigh." Jiang Cheng looked at the path he had blown open, it seemed like they could get out, but the presence of that person just now still made him uneasy inside.
Brother Jiang is so impressive, how do you always have all these amazing things with you." Cloud said as she walked beside Jiang Cheng.
Used to like doing research alone, and would carry around what he made, Jiang Cheng never thought the Jiezhi Bracelet would be this useful, but nowadays it comes in handy here.
"Let’s go, now we can get out." Then Jiang Cheng and the four safely exited the tunnel.
Didn’t expect this to be your family’s research lab." Cloud looked around after exiting the tunnel, "You didn’t know? Then how did you get in?" Qi Ruofeng was the last to exit the tunnel and closed the tunnel door.
She should have been brought here by someone, unconscious the whole time." Jiang Cheng looked at Cloud and said.
Who could that be? Why bring Cloud into the tunnel? Could it be someone who has a grudge against you and wants to do you harm?" Zhao Shuai looked at Cloud and said.
What are you talking about, why would I have such deep-seated hatred against someone.
Cloud glared at Zhao Shuai, this Zhao Shuai really couldn’t say a normal sentence.
Their purpose should be to lure us in, not to kill Cloud, I think it might be related to the person in the tunnel just now, but now the person is gone." Jiang Cheng recalled the black figure from earlier, unable to figure out who it could be.
"Let’s eat first. Jiang and Cloud you must be starving, right?" Qi Rongfeng said. "I’m starving too, Rongfeng, why don’t you ask me?" Zhao Shuai said in grievance.
Alright, alright, you’ve worked hard too, shall we go for a good meal outside?" Qi Rongfeng felt speechless, whenever food was mentioned, Zhao Shuai would become overly excited.
I want to go home first, my family must be worried sick." Cloud remembered her family, felt they must be extremely worried, as she originally planned to stay home for a few days after the conference but ended up being trapped in this place.
Yeah, Mr. Ji was worried sick, searched here for you all day yesterday." Zhao Shuai recalled the face of Patriarch Ji, which seemed to have aged overnight, and felt very worried.
I’ll take Cloud back first, you guys go eat. Since this happened at my place, I should explain everything." Qi Rongfeng felt although his family likely didn’t intervene, his father knew about the tunnel but didn’t mention it, indeed it delayed Cloud’s time, and certainly this incident has affected relations between the Ji Family and Qi Family. Now going to explain might help mend things. Jiang Cheng thought about Qi Rongfeng’s logic, "Alright then, you take Cloud back."
"Brother Jiang, thank you for this time, I’m really grateful, my father will thank you another day, and I..." Cloud saw Jiang Cheng seriously speaking, blushed suddenly, and stopped.
It’s nothing, you should go back and rest well." Jiang Cheng said with a smile.
Zhao Shuai saw Cloud’s expression and sneered, "Hey, Cloud, speaking of gratitude, I also saved you, and didn’t hear you thank me."
"Thank you, goodbye." Cloud glanced at Zhao Shuai and turned away. "Look, Jiang, her attitude towards you and me is completely different, really frustrating. But, Jiang, have you noticed Cloud..." Zhao Shuai winked at Jiang Cheng.
What?" Jiang Cheng didn’t quite catch on, startled by Zhao Shuai’s greasy expression.
Aw, can’t you see it? That girl, she likely has a crush on you. Haha, I’ve grown up with her and never seen her so shy as she was just now. Hahaha." Zhao Shuai said with a laugh, Jiang Cheng thought about Cloud’s expression but didn’t feel any difference, thinking Zhao Shuai was just causing trouble, "Let’s go, grab lunch." With that, Jiang Cheng dragged Zhao Shuai out of the Qi Family.
Jiang Cheng and Zhao Shuai came to a restaurant next to the Qi Family, the two sat down and ordered, "Jiang, who do you think took Cloud?" Zhao Shuai asked.
Unsure, I only saw a man’s silhouette." Jiang Cheng thought about it, "Besides, can’t be certain he’s the one who took Cloud.
"Jiang, I always feel something is going to happen," Zhao Shuai looked at Jiang, revealing a profound expression, "I’ve felt things are quite uneasy recently." "What’s going on? Have you got something on your mind?" Jiang Cheng asked.
Not really, just feels like a lot has happened lately, and my dad, recently he..." Zhao Shuai mentioned, frowned but did not continue.
It’s alright, any problem can be solved." Jiang Cheng thought perhaps something happened at Zhao Shuai’s family or the recent incidents made him uneasy, but there are still many unsolved mysteries he also didn’t know how to proceed.
Yes, with Jiang around, I feel really at ease." Zhao Shuai said with a smile, winking at Jiang Cheng.
As the two finished eating and stood up to leave, Jiang Cheng saw someone pass in front of him, the black figure resembling the one he had seen in the tunnel, Jiang Cheng was about to chase him when the person ahead suddenly turned around, Jiang Cheng then recognized the familiar face, but just meeting his eyes, Jiang Cheng felt dizzy, as if names in his mind suddenly vanished, "Isn’t that Reporter Zhang?" Zhao Shuai called out, Jiang Cheng suddenly came to his senses, indeed, it was Zhang Tian, the reporter seen at the Qi Family, who took the photos of Cloud in the Qi Family. Jiang Cheng didn’t understand what happened just now, he clearly knew the person’s name, but upon meeting Zhang Tian’s eyes, he inexplicably forgot, moreover, what Jiang Cheng saw in Zhang Tian’s eyes for that instant seemed to be red, could it be the Soul Capturing Technique?
"Ah, it’s you guys, meeting again, haha."
At this moment Zhang Tian appeared just like a normal person, greeted Zhao Shuai and Jiang Cheng without the earlier charm Jiang Cheng noticed, and Jiang Cheng saw Zhang Tian’s eyes were just regular black eyes, then glanced at Zhang Tian’s clothes, a realization flashed in his eyes, "Reporter Zhang just came from the Qi Family, right?"
No, I just left home," Zhang Tian said with a smile.
Oh, Cloud has been found, you might not know, huh." Jiang Cheng asked.
Really? That’s great, I was actually heading to the Qi Family now.
Zhang Tian seemed surprised, showing a delighted expression.
"Okay then, we’ll leave now." Jiang Cheng didn’t want to converse with this deceitful reporter further, "Hope one day I get a chance to interview you." Zhang Tian said with praise.
Jiang Cheng nodded, watching as Zhang Tian walked away, he was convinced Zhang Tian was the person in the tunnel just now, as he saw stone ashes on Zhang Tian’s sleeve, and Jiang Cheng was certain Zhang Tian’s silhouette matched the one he had seen in the tunnel,
"Jiang, do you know Zhang Tian well? Why did you say so much?" Zhao Shuai found the earlier conversation between Jiang Cheng and Zhang Tian strange, in his impression, the two should have only met once, and with Jiang Cheng’s aloof personality, it was impossible to quickly warm up to someone and chat amicably.
