Fali went to work. She knew what had happened last night.
On her way back, she saw the police blockade on the highway.
Of course, she didn't say anything.
If she opened her mouth, Chen Zhao would definitely take advantage of her.
It was her first day at work and then something like this happened at home.
Chen Zhao had even more reason to let her stay at home.
Then Portia came.
Portia didn't seem to be in a good state.
What she'd experienced yesterday had given her nightmares for the whole night.
Only someone like Chen Zhao could ignore what had happened yesterday.
To him, it seemed like a normal meal.
"Portia, do you want something to eat?"
Portia sat down and turned her anger into appetite.
However, she'd clearly overestimated her appetite.
She was probably the only one who was full from eating breakfast.
Holding her stomach, Portia lay on the sofa, not wanting to move at all.
"Boss, who are those people?" Portia asked. "Will they attack us again?"
"Don't worry. They're not interested in you."
"That's good." Portia heaved a sigh of relief.
"You have no money, no face, and no body. Those gunmen must be blind to cause trouble for you."
…
"Mr. Bo Tu, our people failed. Now they're all in prison," Maidi said, gritting his teeth.
Sitting in front of Mehdi was a black man. This black man had thin limbs and looked malnourished. He wore colorful clothes and his head was disproportionately big.
One of Bo Tu's hands was holding a wooden staff, and the tip of the staff was inlaid with a black skull.
A sinister aura filled the entire room. There was a heavy stench in the air.
Bo Tu slowly opened his eyes. "I don't care about the others, but you have to bring Jeff Ryder to me."
"But he's in prison now," Maidi said, troubled. "I don't have enough people."
Bo Tu waved his staff. The black skull spat out a gust of black gas, which spread above Maidi's head.
Maidi was instantly enveloped by the black gas. He started struggling in pain, continuously spitting out large amounts of filthy black substance.
A human figure slowly formed in the black substance. It was as tall and sturdy as Maidi.
Then the second figure took shape, followed by the third, the fourth …
Only then did Maidi stop vomiting and slowly recover.
"I'll grant you Shadow. You can lead the Shadow Army and bring Jeff Ryde back to me," Bo Tu said. "Go. Don't make me wait too long."
…
"David, what's up?" Chen Zhao received David's call.
"Chen, the situation is a bit complicated. After a night of interrogation, Jeff Ryder revealed some unusual information. It seems to be related to people from the spiritual world."
"Someone from the Spirit World?"
When Chen Zhao heard this, he wasn't that surprised.
In fact, Chen Zhao had already guessed it.
"He said that in their group, there's actually a Great Wizard from Africa called Botu. He's been hiding in the shadows all this while. He also said that this Great Wizard from Africa will definitely rescue him."
"What do you plan on doing?" Chen Zhao asked.
David had helped him a lot. If David asked, then he would definitely not refuse.
"I hope you can help," David said.
"No problem," Chen Zhao agreed readily. "What do you need me to do?"
This was also what gave David a headache.
He understood the spirit world, and he knew that Chen Zhao was in his hands as insurance.
But how could he use Chen Zhao?
David didn't have any ideas now. He didn't know much.
Even the fact that this was related to the supernatural world was his own guess.
"How about this?" Chen Zhao said. "If there's a prison break, notify me immediately. I'll go and help you immediately."
Speaking of which, Chen Zhao also wanted to know who was behind Jeff Ryder.
More accurately, he was interested in the person who'd cast that strange spell on Jeff Ryder.
"Yes, that's fine."
David didn't have any more clues now.
This was the only arrangement for now.
Just as David hung up, a group of people came in.
A young and pretty woman walked in. "Hi, you're David, right? I'm Vestana. "
"Who are you?" David looked at the woman before him.
"I'm from the secret department. I'm going to take Jeff Ryder out now."
"Secret department? Show me your ID, "David said.
It was impossible for anyone to run up to him and say that they were from the secret department and then take a criminal out.
Moreover, it was a criminal.
"No ID," Vestana said.
"Ms. Vestana, are you joking with me?" David sneered.
"You can call your director," Vestana said expressionlessly.
David frowned and picked up the phone suspiciously. "Hello, director, there's a group of people here. They say that they're from the secret department. They want to take the criminal I brought back yesterday."
"Do as they say and try to cooperate with them. I can't tell you the details." The director's answer was simple.
Vestana's lips curled. "How is it?"
David took a deep breath, although he was a little unwilling.
He didn't want to give up, but the woman before him and the secret department behind her clearly had more authority than him.
"Go take the criminal yourself," David said, unwilling to give up.
"Thank you for your cooperation." Vestana turned and left.
David picked up the phone again. "Hey, Chen, the situation has changed. I don't think you need to get involved anymore."
"What? Did you catch the mastermind?"
"No, Jeff Ryder was taken by another department. I think it's also a department that deals with supernatural incidents."
"Oh, forget it. That's good too. It's better if you don't get involved. It won't do you any good." Chen Zhao had a general idea.
After all, in L.A., only the Supernatural Organization and the Psionic Team could deal with supernatural incidents with the help of the government.
Since it wasn't the Supernatural Organization, it had to be the Psionic Team.
Just then, the butler spoke.
"Master, three cars with unfamiliar license plates have entered Mingyue Villa. Are you allowed to enter?"
Chen Zhao looked at the projection on the wall. Of the three cars, two were black commercial cars, and the one in the middle was a high-end luxury car. The two cars seemed to be the guards of the car in the middle. They didn't look like they were here to cause trouble.
"Put down the barrier and let them in," Chen Zhao said.
