Pei Lin did not give chase. That person was outside the window, and there was no way.
She sheathed her sword and snorted coldly. She did not stay to change her clothes as she picked up her things and left.
Zhang Hanchao, who had heard the commotion outside, rushed over, and when he learned that someone was peeping in the girls' bathroom, his face turned ugly.
He patted his chest and said that he would give Pei Lin an explanation. And immediately contacted the person in charge of the martial arts hall.
Pei Lin had an appointment with him to come over tomorrow.
As she left the martial arts hall, she suddenly sensed a dangerous gaze staring at her from afar.
She shrunk back and got on the bus from the side of the street, not daring to look anymore.
Her previous encounter had made her stay away from anything that could cause an accident.
But what she did not expect was that the moment she got on the bus.
Several passers-by on the streets scattered in different directions at the same time.
A young woman sitting outside an outdoor cafe gently put down the phone in her hand.
"The situation here is under control. Next, wait for orders from headquarters. We can arrest people at any time. "The woman whispered to the ring on her finger.
"Continue to observe and wait for orders." A faint voice came from her ear.
The woman acknowledged, stood up and paid the bill before leaving.
…
…
Uman City.
A steady stream of clerics, changing their clothes and pretending to be ordinary people. They scattered into the city.
These clerics, when not using their power, looked no different from ordinary people.
As for identification and whatnot, to them who were proficient in dark powers, they could just use a few tricks to confuse people's minds to solve the problem.
And Pei Lin knew nothing about it. She continued to practice and accept Lin Sheng's guidance every day.
But her father, Pei Shangyu, felt that something was not right. There seemed to be some kind of undercurrent slowly but surely gathering and approaching.
And in the blink of an eye, another two weeks had passed.
It was the weekend. Pei Lin woke up early in the morning.
Her father, Pei Shangyu, rarely had anything to do, so he stayed at home with his wife and child.
Her mother, Zhuang Qing, had to work in the study.
Pei Lin's ritual summoning of the Holy Spirit last night had failed, and the blood bags she bought were once again used up.
Today, she was wondering if she should get some new blood bags to use.
However, when she went downstairs and walked out of the room, she was surprised to see a group of tall men and women in black leather vests in the living room.
The man in the lead, dressed in a military uniform, was sitting on the sofa, talking to Pei Shangyu one-on-one.
The man smiled when he saw Pei Lin coming down from upstairs.
"Shang Yu, have you thought it through? You don't have much time. "
He suddenly blurted out something inexplicable.
"She doesn't know anything, don't drag her into this!" Pei Shangyu said with an ugly expression.
"Since I'm your daughter, do you think it's possible for me to stay out of this?" The man shook his head.
"The family is very disappointed with your previous decision, so they sent me to explain the situation to you. Of course, if you don't agree to give up your position, then … we won't force you. After all, we're a family. It's just that the family will be very disappointed in you. "The man raised an eyebrow.
"I understand the family's intentions in the past, and I've supported them all. But this time, he really couldn't. No matter what, the fundamental principles of the Daywalker Council cannot be shaken. "
Pei Shangyu recalled the motion that the family had mentioned to him before, and his expression turned even uglier.
Once he agreed to that motion, it would mean that he was standing on the opposite side of his own worldview.
"Is that so? That's a shame." The man shrugged.
He stood up and took one last look at Pei Shangyu.
"Shang Yu, I hope we can still meet like this in the future."
The group of people quickly retreated, and the entire Pei residence suddenly became empty, leaving only Pei Shangyu and his family of three.
Zhuang Qing walked out of the study with a cold expression. She gave her husband a look.
"These people are getting more and more out of hand!"
"Hmm …" Pei Shangyu stood up, his expression cold.
"Linlin, go exercise first. Your mother and I have something to do." He turned around and said to Pei Lin, who was on the stairs.
"Okay, I got it." Pei Lin could guess what was going on. It probably had something to do with work.
Her father's position was in the government after all, and he often encountered similar situations in the past.
It was not the first time she had experienced something like this, and she did not take it to heart.
After saying goodbye to her parents, she brought her things out of the house, and went to the martial arts hall as usual.
In the blink of an eye, another two days had passed.
Pei Shangyu received a notice from work that he was going on a business trip.
And Zhuang Qing's work had also been transferred, and she needed to go to a nearby city. The couple hurriedly packed up early in the morning and went out the door.
Leaving their daughter Pei Lin alone at home.
The transport car had already arrived at the door.
Pei Shangyu carried his suitcase, and put on the special family ring used for emergency communication. He bent down and got into the car.
The car slowly started and gradually moved away from the house.
Pei Shangyu chatted with the driver. The people who were picking him up this time were sent by the family, and the family was not completely united, and many of them were on the same side as him.
So this time, he was also planning to use the excuse of going on a business trip to visit the elders of the family who were friends with him.
But when the car got on the highway, the direction it was heading in made him a little confused.
"Yuehao, are you sure this is the direction to Wuyan?" Pei Shangyu frowned and asked.
"Yes, sir. The road has been under construction recently, and the old road is temporarily out of commission. "The driver, Zhang Yuehao, replied in a deep voice.
"Is that so? Looks like the roads around here have to be rerouted again. The last time the road cracked, it took more than half a year. "Pei Shangyu nodded.
"Yeah, it's annoying for us to change lanes all the time." The driver, Zhang Yuehao, was also helpless.
"The last time I went back to my hometown, I also took that road, and there was a big hole in the road for no reason, I don't know …"
Suddenly, a large truck on the right made a turn and crashed into the front of the car.
The huge impact was accompanied by a high-speed impact, and the small car was thrown out like a toy.
Before the car landed, the window burst open, and Pei Shangyu and the driver, Zhang Yuehao, rushed out at the same time and landed steadily on the ground.
"Shangyu, long time no see."
Just as they landed and were about to look for the culprit, an old voice came from behind, causing Pei Shangyu to stiffen.
He turned around, and his pupils shrank.
"Hall of Joy … James … You are not dead yet!?"
On the road behind him, stood a white-haired old man in a red suit.
The old man held a short sword in his hand, and his white mustache was meticulously trimmed.
His gaze was deep as he stared at Pei Shangyu.
"Today, no one will come to save you. Don't count on Berman, someone will deal with him. "
"Looks like you have arranged everything well …" Pei Shangyu's voice was cold.
"Yes." The old man James nodded calmly. "You can't escape, neither can Zhuang Qing, and that ordinary daughter you left at home. Someone has already taken care of them. "
Pei Shangyu sneered and was about to refute.
But the old man James suddenly continued.
"By the way, the leader of this command is Pei Peng, known as the Iron Arm of the Pei family. I wonder if you know him? Perhaps, you are still waiting for the Pei family to rescue you? Unfortunately … you are destined to be disappointed. "
"Pei Peng??!" Pei Shangyu's face suddenly turned extremely ugly.
He suddenly remembered what Pei Peng said to him when he came to his house a while ago.
And the reminder from his friend.
The man who visited his house a few days ago.
The scenes of information were linked together, and finally formed an answer that he could not believe.
