Chapter 3017
3017 Kidnapping
When she saw the girl being thrown to the ground from the roof, Feng Jiu rose on her toes immediately and jumped forward to catch her. After she turned around and steadied herself, she handed the girl over to the Mayor who stepped forward quickly.
However, when he looked up again, he saw that the man in black had dropped something, and at the same time, a puff of thick smoke that filled the air blurred his vision. The man in black was about to take the opportunity to leave when Feng Jiu moved her fingers slightly and a silver needle shot out with a whoosh.
“Ughhh!”
The man in black groaned and his leaping body fell on the roof, then rolled down and fell to the ground. Just as he was about to get up, Wanyan Shisan, who had jumped down from above, stretched his foot out and stomped on him. When he stretched his hand out and held the man up to interrogate him, he saw that the man stiffened and his body bowed down slightly, as if all the muscles in his body were twitching, and his eyes closed suddenly.
!!
Upon seeing this, the two of them frowned. He died just like that?
“Little Ru! Little Ru!” The Mayor put his coat on his daughter, who was only wearing her inner robes, and called out. But his daughter didn’t wake up.
“She’s just unconscious because she’s been drugged. She’s fine. She will wake up in the morning.” Feng Jiu said and told the Mayor not to worry.
The Mayor nodded when he heard Feng Jiu’s words: “I’ll take Little Ru back to her room first.” Having said that, he brought his daughter back to her room and sent men to strengthen the security of the manor.
“The man in black had an evil breath.” Wanyan Shisan said, and after a moment of thought, he said: “He should be someone from the Evil Sect. But, why did the Evil Sect appear in this small town?”
“Why did the Evil Sect kidnap this woman? And why did they only send one person here? It is a little strange.” Feng Jiu said, then she looked at the people around her and said: “Let’s ask the Mayor! Maybe he will know something.”
“Yes.” Wanyan Shisan nodded.
After the Mayor settled his daughter, he found them and before the two of them could speak, he waved his hand and signalled them not to speak, then said: “I know what you want to ask. I am indeed hiding something.”
He sighed, then said: “Tonight, I told you many things about Shadow Mountain, but I didn’t tell you things about our town. Many girls have been disappearing for no reason from our town recently. They are nowhere to be found, and every family is in a panic.”
“A lot of those families with daughters who are more wealthy, have moved away to the city. Some families with daughters have locked their daughters at home securely and not let them go out because they are afraid they would lose their daughters.”
“I have made a conjecture that the loss of daughters from the various families in the small town has something to do with Shadow Mountain, but I daren’t tell the people because I don’t have the ability to save them. All I can do is guard and protect my own daughter so that nothing happens to her. I know that I am being selfish, but there is nothing I can do!”
Upon hearing this, Wanyan Shisan said in a deep voice: “Then all the more you should tell us everything so that we know exactly what is going on!”
Feng Jiu smiled. She wasn’t too bothered, and only said: “I think that the Mayor thinks that after we go to Shadow Mountain, we won’t return! If he told us about this, he’s afraid it would cause unnecessary trouble.”
It was human nature after, not everyone was capable of handling matters that extended beyond their abilities.
