127 A REWARD PART 15

Balthazar asked, "Does that hurt you?" He was enjoying her suffering. "It's all your fault Xue Lin. It's you who did everything.

Xue Lin trembled in anger and her eyes became bloodshot. She forgot all her pain and said in a low, seething tone, "You! You are the culprit!" She jumped at him and caught him off guard. "It was all your fault! It was you! If… if you weren't alive, none of this would have happened. I should have killed you that day!" In anger, she slapped him, scratched him, bit him. She became insane. "I'll kill you! I'll kill you!"

She was seething in anger. Her emotion was out of control. All she could think of were those painful memories and her mind was telling her that this guy in front of her was the one responsible for all her and others' sufferings.

Balthazar was so shocked by her sudden outburst that he didn't have a clue as to what to do. When his head started working again, others shouted and ran toward him. They grabbed Xue Lin and tried to get her off of Balthazar but they still couldn't tear her away from him. She was glued to him.

"Take her away! She is crazy!" Balthazar shouted.

But the people around them couldn't do anything.

Xue Lin said, "If I die, I will take you with me. Whether I'm dead or alive, you will have the most painful death. I will slaughter you!"

"What's the fuss?" Legion came patiently and saw the commotion.

A Satanist came forward and explained the situation. "My Lord, the sacrifice suddenly became crazy."

Legion looked at crazy Xue Lin and the victim Balthazar. He moved his left hand and Xue Lin was thrown away by some invisible power. She fell on the wooden stage in the middle of the pentagon. Her body went numb in pain but still she tried to stand up. However, the same invisible power didn't let her. She wanted to speak but couldn't.

Balthazar was relieved and stood up. With Legion's signal, he announced, "Let the ceremony begin!"

Everyone gathered around the pentagon and started to speak in a language that Xue Lin never heard before. One of them set fire to her wooden bed and the fire spread around the bed quickly.

Legion prayed to Satan and threw some oil on Xue Lin's body. Xue Lin's eyes widened seeing the fire reaching out to her. As If her wounds weren't enough, the smoke and the heat made it almost impossible for her to even breathe.

'I won't give in. I can't give in. I will kill him. I will finish them all.' Xue Lin tried her best to move but all her attempt was in vain. Her eyes were burning in smoke and her wounds were stinging. She was losing blood and strength. Gradually she lost consciousness.

"Did you find her?" Ge Chen asked. He was still calm or that's what he showed in front of everyone. He was sitting on a chair and his grey eyes looked unexceptionally cold.

"We are still looking." The men sitting in front of the computers were sweating and trying their best to locate Xue Lin. If eyes could kill, they would be slaughtered in this very second.

Ming Yu reported, "Boss, the car was found in the salvage yard and the forensic team didn't find any sign of struggle. The surveillance footage showed that Young Mistress went to the bar on her free will. The problem is inside the bar, there is no surveillance camera. We could only rely on the words of the guests. Out of thirty distinguished guests, only three of them saw young mistress and they saw her talking to the owner Puja. Miss Puja is Young Mistress' classmate. In the guests' eyes, the two girls seemed close. When Miss Puja was drunk, Young Mistress went inside the private room of Miss Puja. After that, the guests or the guards inside the bar didn't see them anymore. They just simply vanished into thin air."

"They are human beings. They cannot just disappear into thin air." Ge Chen coldly said.

"Y-yes…" Ming Yu hardly had a time like this. He was working from morning to dusk. After he went home, he freshened up and went to the bed and suddenly got the call from Ge Chen. Then, he came to the headquarter and saw everyone was in a mess. Later, he found out that Xue Lin was missing. It's already in the middle of the night and yet there was no sign of her. No one had sleep in their eyes. They were worried about Xue Lin and also their lives. If something happens to her, they are all dead – and they know it.

A man suddenly reported, "Boss, Team B found a trapdoor inside the bedroom." He excitedly announced. "There is a tunnel leading from the trapdoor. The tunnel led them to a field. They said that a helicopter was there."

"Then she could be anywhere." Ming Yu felt chills. He didn't dare to look at Ge Chen.

"I checked the movements of the enemies. They are not doing anything suspicious." Another man reported.

Ge Chen's expression was solemn. He asked in a low tone, "Did you not find the tracker?"

"It's not showing up, boss. I'm searching every inch." Another man revealed. His hands sweated as he tried to move his mouse.

Another man announced, "Boss, someone from the southeast said that there was a huge bonfire in the forest. Should I check?"

"Check everything." Ge Chen instructed.

"I'll prepare the helicopter." Ming Yu ran away from there.

Another one said, "Boss, I found the tracker. It's in the southeast. The tracker was in the middle of the bonfire."

"What did you say?!" Ge Chen stood up.

"I'll try my best to stop them somehow." Another man said and contacted the closest team they had on the southeast border.

Ge Chen already went out of the room and went to the rooftop. Every second seemed decades. He was getting impatient.
