When they arrived at Wang Xuxu's room, Mofan released his senses to capture every detail in the room.
Rong Sheng felt a pang in his heart as soon as he walked into the room. What happened that night was like a wonderful dream to him. Everything was turned upside down when he woke up the next morning.
"There's no clue. She probably left the room on her own," said Mofan.
He turned around and was about to check the situation behind him, but he almost bumped into Rong Sheng, who was in a daze.
Seeing Rong Sheng's expression, Mofan said helplessly, "Don't think about it anymore."
"Wang Xuxu seems to be very scared recently. I've been trying to talk to her, but she's been avoiding me. I'm really worried about her," said Guo Wenyi.
"What is she afraid of?" asked Mofan.
"I don't know … but I have a feeling that she's afraid of Zhao Pinlin," said Guo Wenyi.
"It must be Zhao Pinlin. He must have done something to threaten her. It must be!" Rong Sheng suddenly realized.
It would explain why Wang Xuxu suddenly had a change of heart. She had promised him that night. Besides, if she was only accommodating him, why would she allow him to touch her body?
"Zhao Pinlin came to me that night," said Mu Ningxue calmly.
"He came to you?" Guo Wenyi and Rong Sheng were startled.
Mu Ningxue briefly described it, but anyone could tell that Zhao Pinlin was actually trying to pursue Mu Ningxue.
"Wang Xuxu said the same thing to me over the phone. She said that she doesn't think Zhao Pinlin is reliable … she was very serious. It didn't sound like she was joking at all." Guo Wenyi took out her phone and showed the message to Mofan and Mu Ningxue.
Rong Sheng blurted out excitedly, "See, I told you, she wasn't accommodating me that night. It must be Zhao Pinlin's doing. Maybe her disappearance is related to Zhao Pinlin. Zhao Pinlin scared her, so she found a place to hide. Now that something so terrifying has happened to the manor, it must be very dangerous for her to be alone. We have to find her as soon as possible. "
Mo Fan took a look at the message. Judging from the content, Wang Xuxu was a smart girl. She was able to see Zhao Pinlin's true nature under his glamorous, passionate, and gentle appearance. On top of that, the fact that Zhao Pinlin had invited Mu Ningxue to his party the other night further proved that Wang Xuxu was indeed unreliable!
"Zhao Pinlin has been looking at me strangely for the past few days," said Mu Ningxue.
Mu Ningxue's EQ was not low, either. She could clearly sense the change in Zhao Pinlin recently. When he was looking at her, it was not like he was trying to avoid her awkwardly after being rejected, or trying to maintain his self-esteem, or pretending that nothing had happened, but a burning passion!
Mu Ningxue even felt like the man was trying to eat her up with his eyes. His face even had a cold grin on it, as if he was implying that she would eventually fall into his hands!
Mu Ningxue was a Magician. Her observation skills were a lot better than Zhao Pinlin's. Even Zhao Pinlin had no idea that Mu Ningxue was aware of the desire and longing he had for her.
As such, when the group was discussing Zhao Pinlin's case, Mu Ningxue immediately shared her discovery with the others.
"What do you mean?" Mofan did not pay too much attention to it.
"I can only describe what I'm feeling. I feel like his eyes are full of ambition. He's staring at me covetously, but he's not doing anything, "Mu Ningxue shared her feelings.
"He likes you, everyone in the car can tell. We were already discussing it the day he invited you to the hotel. He thought he was hiding it well," said Guo Wenyi.
"Mu Ningxue is such a beautiful and special girl. Who wouldn't like her?" said Rong Sheng softly.
"Let's not talk about love and hatred under these circumstances, shall we?" suggested Mofan.
The place was already covered in corpses, yet they were still in the mood to talk about it. Mofan was utterly impressed by Rong Sheng and Guo Wenyi.
Mu Ningxue was a femme fatale. Many people would fall in love with her at first glance, but so what? She was the daughter-in-law of the Mo Clan. No one was allowed to lay their hands on her, not even that idiot Zhao Pinlin!
"Mofan, I think we should talk about Zhao Pinlin," said Mu Ningxue sternly.
"What's there to talk about? He's just like that idiot Guan Yu." Mofan was aware of Zhao Pinlin's thoughts, but he did not treat him as a competitor.
"There's something wrong with him," said Mu Ningxue.
Mu Ningxue did not have any evidence, but it was just her instinct.
From Zhao Pinlin's gentle and courteous attitude toward her at the beginning, to him leaving in a fit of anger after being coldly rejected, to how he was still eyeing her covetously after getting together with Wang Xuxu, and how he was suddenly emitting a sinister aura all of a sudden …
"My instincts are telling me that if he did something inappropriate to Wang Xuxu, he might do the same to me. I've been keeping my guard up around him for the past few days," said Mu Ningxue.
"Keeping your guard up?" Mofan was surprised.
Mu Ningxue was an Intermediate Magician. Her strength was comparable to an Advanced Magician. If she was keeping her guard up around a normal person, it meant that there was something fishy about the man. Thinking back to Wang Xuxu's sudden change, and her fear …
"Stay here, I'll investigate this Zhao Pinlin," said Mofan.
Mofan did not ask them to follow him. It was better for him not to expose his Shadow Element to Rong Sheng and Guo Wenyi. Who could guarantee that they were not members of the Black Vatican?
…
Mofan went to Zhao Pinlin's room and realized that the door was tightly shut.
However, it was not a problem for Mofan. He first unleashed a circle of lightning to destroy all the surveillance devices in the room, just so the members of the Black Vatican would not notice him while he was using his magic.
He snuck into Zhao Pinlin's room with the Fleeing Shadow, but the room was empty.
"Strange, didn't he say he was going back to his room? Why isn't he here? He's just an ordinary person, and he's poisoned outside. Why is he still running around? "
"It seems like there's something fishy about him!" Mofan grinned.
"Where on earth did he run off to?"
"Swift Star Wolf, come out and sniff the guy's underwear. See if you can find him," Mofan Summoned the Swift Star Wolf.
The Swift Star Wolf's handsome face was filled with resentment!
His Summoned Beast was a wolf, not a dog!
"Awoo, awoo ~" The Swift Star Wolf's nose was quite sensitive to the smell of blood. He quickly dragged out a half-closed box from under the bed. The box was filled with adult products that even Mofan felt ashamed of …
"I knew you weren't a decent wolf!" Mofan scolded.
"Awoo, awoo ~" The Swift Star Wolf felt wronged.
"You're saying that there's a faint smell of blood on the whip, and it's a woman's blood?" Mofan took out a leather whip and pondered while rubbing his chin, "It seems like they left it behind when they were playing some kind of thrilling game … the whip was pretty harsh. Even if they were just playing, they wouldn't have drawn out the victim's blood. This Zhao Pinlin looks like a gentleman on the surface, but he's actually a maniac."
Mofan obviously knew about adult games!
However, even if it was a game of whips, it was only a kind of pain and pleasure. If the whip was stained with blood, it was definitely a form of torture!
This Zhao Pinlin was getting more and more fishy!

(That day, I wanted to tell you something that would make you unhappy, but I actually forgot to mention it!!)
(I'm actually quite happy about this because the company organized a trip for the authors to go abroad for a week or so. It's quite difficult to maintain a stable update in a foreign country, let alone in a certain country.)
(I'm going to Shanghai tomorrow before flying out. As for the update, I'll write when I have time. If I really don't have time, you guys should calm down. Sigh, in order to give you guys a realistic plot, your Uncle Luan has to personally go abroad to investigate. It's not easy, so you guys must vote after reading the book!)
