Meng Zhi’s heart plunged into chaos in an instant, urgently asking, “What happened?”
Zheng Ming explained, “Chairwoman Gu has not shown up at the company, and we haven’t been able to get through to her phone either.”
Meng Zhi immediately realized Gu Dai must have encountered trouble. “Does Su Ting know about this?”
Zheng Ming confirmed, “Yes, President Su has already arranged for people to look into it!”
Meng Zhi then ordered his people to investigate as well.
Shi Nuan, not catching what was said on the phone but sensing Meng Zhi’s troubled expression, quickly asked, “What’s wrong? Is something wrong with Daidai?”
Meng Zhi didn’t want Shi Nuan to worry and thought to keep the matter from her.
Instantly grasping what Meng Zhi was thinking, Shi Nuan said, “Don’t keep things from me, because there’s nothing in this world that can be completely hidden.”
Hearing this, Meng Zhi had no choice but to reveal the situation.
Shi Nuan swiftly contacted her father to investigate Gu Dai’s whereabouts.
Su Ting, driving at high speed, arrived at the location reported by Yang Gao, only to find it deserted, with three roads ahead and no indication of which way to go.
Yang Gao reported, “Miss Gu Dai was surrounded by a group of people in black here. After that, the surveillance was destroyed, and we couldn’t track further details.”
Su Ting, looking at the damaged surveillance, quickly set up his laptop to attempt decryption, but his skills were not advanced enough to break through.
Confused and panicking about what to do next, he suddenly thought of Su Ci, believing he would have a way to decrypt the footage.
After realizing this, Su Ting quickly shared the situation with Su Ci.
Su Ci, reacting swiftly, had his expression turn cold upon seeing the people in black on the surveillance footage, his hands clenched into fists.
Gradually regaining consciousness, Gu Dai recalled the events before she passed out. Opening her eyes, she found herself in darkness, unable to see anything, with her hands and feet bound. A slight movement brought a wave of soreness throughout her body.
What was happening?
Gu Dai was puzzled but quickly calmed herself, tuning into her surroundings.
The sound of the sea, mixed with the cries of seagulls, reached her ears. The ground beneath her vibrated slightly, and the faint smell of the sea breeze entered through the gaps.
Gu Dai suspected she was bound aboard a ship.
Her eyelashes quivered as her fingers explored her surroundings, searching for anything that might aid in her escape.
Gu Dai didn’t know who wished to harm her, but she was determined not to wait for death here.
Suddenly, a hoarse laughter echoed, the voice altered by machinery, sending chills down the spine.
The voice darkly stated, “Gu Dai, your time to die is coming!”
Gu Dai’s fingers curled slightly as she asked, “Since I’m going to die anyway, why not tell me why you want to kill me, so I can know why I died.”
The mechanical voice paused for a few seconds before screaming sharply, “Die! All of you Gu family members deserve to die, all of you!”
Gu Dai remained calm, “Why does the Gu family deserve to die?”
The mechanical voice replied, “Because the Gu family has offended me! Hearing how many people like you, haha, I’m even more eager to see their pained expressions after you die, die, die…”
The words “die” echoed in Gu Dai’s ears, but she was unfazed, lost in thought.
The Gu family… deserve to die…
Perhaps the person who had kidnapped her wasn’t from organization X, but someone else. But who could it be?
What had the Gu family done to wrong him?
Gu Dai couldn’t understand and asked, “Before I die, can you tell me who you are? And why do you watch me through surveillance instead of facing me? Are you afraid I’ll recognize you?”
The mechanical voice sneered, “A joke, how could I possibly be afraid of you?”
Gu Dai pressed, “Then why don’t you tell me who you are?”
The mechanical voice responded with, “I…”
The voice halted, then screamed madly, “I really hate the Gu family, why can you remain calm in the face of death? You’re really good at pretending! I want to tear your face apart!”
Gu Dai remained silent, and soon, hurried footsteps approached.
As the door was briefly opened, she saw a figure enter, the mechanical, frightening laughter echoing in the cramped space.
Gu Dai felt a hand with leather gloves touch her face, the cold sensation causing her to shiver.
The mechanical voice declared, “Miss Gu, I will drown you in the sea shortly, then fish out your body, chop it into pieces, and feed it to the dogs!”
