ntly kissing the top of her head. "I'm sorry," he said softly, "I got too carried away."Tong Yimò feigned shyness, turning her back to Leng Zhūjǐng. In reality, she was on the verge of tears. After a...Ming Sihan stared intently at the monitor screen, his fingers flying across the keyboard, frantically trying to mask his real IP address and avoid detection by the cyber police.

One hour later, Pei Xuanyan called.

"You've been tricked! Besides some clothes in the suitcase, there isn't even a single star!" Pei Xuanyan said, out of breath.

Then a man's gruff voice came through the receiver, "You wrecked my car! You've got to pay! And you have to pay for my lost wages! And for my emotional distress!"

"Beep—" Ming Sihan hung up the phone without a word.

On the other side, Pei Xuanyan looked at this stubborn taxi driver and really wanted to punch him in the face to shut him up.

And the fellow sitting in the passenger seat had been knocked unconscious in the car because of the recent two-car collision.

Fortunately, there were no casualties. Pei Xuan'yan wiped the sweat from her forehead with extreme impatience.

"Did you hear that You owe me!" the driver grumbled, spitting bits of saliva.

Pei Xuanyan, unable to bear it any longer, roared furiously, "Shut your goddamn mouth!"

Only then did Ming Sihan realize that Xing'er was still in room 501.

After all, when he had been watching him closely just now, whether it was in the hotel corridor or the elevator, as long as it was a public area, the hotel's surveillance was all-seeing. So, on the surveillance screen, there was no sign of the suitcase being switched.

But it is also possible that a switcheroo happened after getting into a taxi.

Ming Sihan thought of this, immediately got up from his computer desk, and when he pulled open the door to go to room 501, a male waiter carrying a small black box walked towards him.

"Sir, someone asked me to give this to you." The hotel male attendant respectfully presented a black small box.

Ming Sihan's brow furrowed tightly, he readily took the box and opened it without hesitation.

The male hotel attendant immediately bowed slightly and then turned to leave.

There is an antique MP4 player and a GPS navigator inside.

Ming Sihan took out his MP4 player and pressed the play button.

In the video, even Star was bound with iron chains at both wrists and hung suspended in a sealed, transparent cylindrical chamber.

There's also a line of subtitles on the video: "In five hours, the water tank will be full. If you don't arrive at the location guided by the navigation system in time and press the shut-off valve with your fingerprint, what will happen You guess."

Ming Sihan immediately picked up the GPS navigation device again and looked at it. After getting the address inside, he took out his own phone and searched it again.

Lian Xing'er's current location is no longer in Beicheng, but in the suburbs of Nancheng.

The fastest way to get from Beicheng to the suburbs of Nancheng is to drive yourself, which takes about four hours.

But, it had only been two hours since Xing'er was kidnapped. So how did they manage to transfer so quickly in those two hours

Ming Sihan tried his best to calm himself down.

If he drives four hours to get there, then he'll have to spend another four hours driving back. Adding in travel delays, he'd need at least nine hours.

He definitely wouldn't make it to the evening game after nine hours.

If MS Team (Hacking Department) doesn't play, his teammates wouldn't even be a match for EA Team.

In this qualifying round, they are doomed to lose.

Ming Sihan pondered for a while, his mind suddenly lit up. Finally, the frown between his brows eased, and he strode out of the hotel.

This afternoon, the MS team (Hacker Department) lost to the EA team in a match.

Fans demanded "C" appear, or they would collectively request refunds.

The coach also began to frantically call Ming Sihan, but Ming Sihan's phone was always unreachable.

This immediately caused the entire team to panic.

If "C" doesn't play, they are sure to lose that night game.

The coach looked at the five listless, dejected, and even demoralized members before him. Unable to contain himself, he let out a string of profanity: “C spent money cultivating you, and this is how you repay him Even if C wasn't here, you still have to play well, give it your all and put on your best performance!”

And the coach's roar also made the five members present look at each other in astonishment.

They are all actually the best, how can they lose confidence just because there isn't a C in their team

After exchanging a look, one by one, they reignited their passion and perked up.

The sound of flowing water, "whooshing" in my ears.

When Lian Xing'er slowly opened her eyes, she felt a sharp pain in both wrists, as if they had been bound by something cold and hard, making her wrist bones feel like they were about to break.

Vision blurred, everything white and hazy around me, but the air was thin and oppressive.

At this point, the icy water had already reached her waist.

Is she dying

Lián Xīng'ěr felt dizzy and weak, a wave of drowsiness washed over her again.

At the moment she closed her eyes, she seemed to see a figure in an MS team uniform emerge from blur into focus.
