Zhang Heng was not in a hurry to leave.
"Actually, there is another possibility."
"What is it?"
"The oil painting and the attack are too deliberate. It's almost as if it's to make people think of the New God," Zhang Heng said.
"If it's not the New God, who else would …" Miss Succubus realized something halfway through her sentence. "The mysterious organization that attacked me before? Did they do it again? If that's the case, does that mean they really want to hurt Sai Ji? "
"There's a way to find out soon." Zhang Heng took one last look at the oil painting on the screen. "Let's get out of here first."
"Huh?" Although confused, Miss Succubus still followed Zhang Heng out of the company's entrance. They took the elevator to the ground floor, and Zhang Heng started the car and drove around the current street. He then returned to a shopping mall not far from their original location.
From here, they could see the main entrance and side door of the office building where Miss Succubus was located.
Sitting in the car, the two finally had time to talk about the previous question. Zhang Heng asked Miss Succubus, "Do you know why Thor suddenly attacked the organizing committee's prison and rescued Seth?"
"I heard a lot of rumors about this matter …"
Zhang Heng didn't ask Miss Succubus about the rumors. Instead, he revealed the answer. "His wife is missing, and Seth seems to know where she is."
"So, when Thor rescued Seth, he actually wanted Seth to take him to his wife? That triggered a series of conflicts between the New God and the Old God? "
"That's right." Zhang Heng said, "I smell a familiar scent from this incident. Cupid and Saiji, just like Thor and Sif, are powerful husbands with a wife who doesn't have much of a presence and is easy to deal with."
"Do you mean someone wants to kidnap Sai Ji to threaten Cupid this time?"
"Yes, and this time, their plan is obviously more complete. From the beginning, they had already planned to direct Cupid's anger to the New God. That's why I brought you here to keep an eye on her. According to what you said, Sai Ji is very timid. She's scared, and she realized that the other party already knows where her office is. I'm sure she wants to move to a safer place to wait for her husband to return. "
Ms. Succubus's face did not look too good. Zhang Heng's words reminded her of the danger she had encountered before and the missing kindred. "What are these guys trying to do? What good is it for them to stir up hatred between the new and old gods?"
Ms. Succubus seemed to be puzzled by this question. Although Zhang Heng had guessed something, he remained silent about it.
At this moment, a figure wearing a cap and a mask walked out from the side door of the office building with his head lowered.
"It's Sai Ji. She really came out just like you said." Ms. Succubus, who was sitting on the passenger seat, threw all other thoughts to the back of her mind.
Sai Ji, who had put on a simple disguise, obviously did not know that she had been discovered as soon as she showed up. She even pretended to be a white-collar worker working in the building, wearing a travel company badge around her neck. After that, she pretended to be calm and walked out of the street. After that, she reached out and hailed a taxi.
Seeing that Sai Ji got into the taxi, Ms. Succubus became nervous and asked, "Aren't we following her?"
"There's no hurry. It's easy to be discovered if we follow her too closely." Zhang Heng, on the other hand, didn't look worried at all.
"With Sai Ji's vigilance, she won't notice us even if we follow her closely." Ms. Succubus couldn't understand Zhang Heng's cautiousness.
"I'm not talking about her."
Not long after Zhang Heng's voice fell, he saw a moving company's van not far away suddenly started to follow the taxi in front of them. Zhang Heng was even calmer when he saw that. He waited until the taxi completely disappeared from his sight, and the van drove for about four hundred meters before he started the car again. This time, he followed the van.
With Zhang Heng's driving skills, it was almost impossible for the van in front of him to notice that he was being followed in a busy downtown area. And at this time, all their attention was on the taxi in front of them. They were afraid that they would lose track of it. Hence, they had no idea what was happening behind them.
Although Sai Ji looked a little ignorant, she was not stupid enough to take a taxi home. After all, her office had been exposed, and her residence was naturally in danger. So, after Sai Ji left the company, she went to a park in the western suburbs. Probably because it was far from the city, and it was a working day, there were not many people in the park.
Sai Ji took out a hundred-yuan bill from her wallet and handed it to the driver. "Keep the change." After that, she hurriedly opened the door, bought the ticket, and walked into the park.
At first, she walked at a brisk pace, but later, she jogged all the way along the gravel ground of the park and ran into the rose garden. At this time, the roses were in full bloom, attracting many bees and butterflies to dance around the flowers.
Sai Ji looked around and saw that there was no one nearby. So, she took off her shoes and wanted to walk into the flowers. However, after thinking about it, she threw her shoes into the trash can beside her. Other than that, she also threw her clothes and bag into the trash can. After doing all this, she lifted her feet and walked into the flowers again.
A moment later, there was only a ring and two earrings left in the bushes. At the same time, a beautiful swallowtail butterfly landed on a rose. However, before the swallowtail butterfly could have a good rest, an insect net suddenly fell from above its head and covered it.
After that, a man put the trapped butterfly into a glass bottle that he had prepared beforehand. And when his companion saw this scene, he could not help but sneer, "What is this? Walking into a trap? Although I knew that this mission would be easy before we left, I didn't expect it to be this easy. We don't even need to do anything. "
"Okay, don't be careless." The man holding the bottle frowned. "We have already lost a lot of people. Not only did we lose two teams to deal with Thor, but even the person we sent to deal with the succubus has disappeared. We still have to be vigilant against these supernatural creatures. Otherwise, we will be the ones to fail next time."
His words were quite effective. When the other three heard his words, they gradually put away the smiles on their faces. However, in the next moment, they were stunned again. Because they did not know when, but a figure had blocked their path.
Just like the group of people Zhang Heng met before, the four people in front of him were also foreigners. Three of them were Europeans, and one of them was Asian. The four of them were a little surprised when they saw Zhang Heng. One of them reacted quickly, playing dumb in English and asking Zhang Heng how to get to the west gate of the park.
Zhang Heng ignored the man, glanced at the bottle in their hands, and said lightly, "Don't you know that you can't catch butterflies in the park?"
