Hirakawa Ken and Matsumoto Kosei suspected they might be hallucinating.
They seemed to have just heard a muffled, hoarse voice from Wu Mu?
The two of them stared intensely at Wu Mu.
Wu Mu, under their gaze, continued speaking unconcernedly, "I know both the Shenchuan Association and Nishiguchi Group are looking for me, so I’m worried about being ambushed if time drags on too long."
This time they heard it clearly; it really was a muffled, hoarse voice!
A completely different voice from this Hua Country person’s usual!
And this voice... isn’t it Takahashi Tetsu’s voice!?
How could this be!? Content originally comes from N0velFire.ɴet
The two of them were utterly bewildered.
Secretly watching, Zheng Minji and Cui Xiangzhong were also startled.
"It’s this person’s voice manipulation skill!"
They realized that it was Wu Mu’s voice-changing ability but hadn’t thought Wu Mu would come up with the idea to use transformation techniques to solve the situation; it was quite a mind-bending notion!
Wu Mu himself didn’t feel it was particularly mind-bending.
From start to finish, he was focused; Takahashi Mi’s importance to the Shenchuan Association and Nishiguchi Group mostly lay in her ability to contact and threaten Takahashi Tetsu.
And if "Takahashi Tetsu" came unguarded, who would care about Takahashi Mi?
He continued, "To avoid dragging on too long and giving them ample time to prepare traps, I plan a sudden meeting. I’ve arrived near the bookstore you mentioned in your last call, Ami, you should be nearby too, right? Give me your location, I’ll come directly, as soon as I see you, I’ll come out."
Hirakawa Ken and Matsumoto Kosei trembled all over.
Though they didn’t understand why this person changed his voice, they had figured out his plan.
He intended to use "himself" as bait and leave those who captured the Shenchuan Association nearby.
This guy is so insidious!
Will the people from the Shenchuan Association fall for it?
"It’s Takahashi Tetsu!"
Inside the Toyota minivan that seized Takahashi Mi.
Mizushima Hidekazu, the Assistant Deputy of Shenchuan Association responsible for this operation, was delighted, "That’s Takahashi Tetsu’s voice, I heard it at the pre-battle negotiation meeting!"
The subordinate next to him pressed the phone’s microphone tightly, looking equally excited, "He actually came to us on his own; there’s no need to wait for us to contact him, he’s coming out himself. He probably doesn’t know his sister has been captured by us yet, and still thinks we are the Nishiguchi Group. Boss, quickly give him a nearby location, we’ll nab him too!"
Neither of them doubted because the voice sounded exactly like Takahashi Tetsu’s.
But someone did feel something was off, "Boss, I find it a bit strange, how come just after we catch his sister, he calls over, and is already nearby? Could he have already connected with the Nishiguchi Group and is setting a trap for us?"
This suspicion was quite accurate, unfortunately if identity isn’t seen through, there will be plenty of mismatching aspects.
Mizushima Hidekazu immediately shook his head, "Impossible, if Takahashi Tetsu had connected with the Nishiguchi Group, they should’ve set up a bigger trap, waiting for us to contact him and ambush our main force."
"Then... is it possible Takahashi Tetsu still has many people around him? Knowing his sister was kidnapped, intending to take us by surprise?" asked the cautious subordinate again.
"That’s even more impossible; if he had many people around him, he wouldn’t be hiding and afraid to show himself." Mizushima Hidekazu laughed proudly, "We bribed his confidant to betray him. Right now, he trusts no one; I guess he doesn’t have anyone with him, otherwise he wouldn’t be hidden so deeply."
Currently, seven people were on the minivan, with an additional team nearby for support, totaling fifteen or sixteen people, more than enough to ambush Takahashi Tetsu.
Not only were there many people, but Takahashi Mi was also in their hands, when the time came, threatening him with Takahashi Mi would be enough.
The more Mizushima Hidekazu thought about it, the more he felt it was an opportunity; missing this chance, once Takahashi Tetsu finds out his sister was captured, he will undoubtedly grow more cautious.
Having thought about it thoroughly, Mizushima Hidekazu, feeling there was no issue, no longer hesitated, grabbed a dagger from beside him and threatened Takahashi Mi, who was captured and had her mouth covered, "Miss Takahashi, report my position to him, else you won’t like the consequences!"
Takahashi Mi, terrified, with a face full of tears, shook her head desperately, "Mmm mmm."
Not just Mizushima Hidekazu, she couldn’t tell either that the caller wasn’t her brother.
It sounded exactly like her brother’s voice!
A mere college student, she felt full of fear and panic now; she hated the brother who caused their mother’s death, yet couldn’t bring herself to participate in framing him.
What should she do...
Her brother on the other end of the phone seemed completely unaware of anything, recalling fondly, "I really miss the days when Ami and I went to Akihabara..."
But halfway through speaking, he abruptly broke off, puzzled, "Ami, why isn’t there any sound from your side?"
Takahashi Mi, initially terrified, suddenly froze.
