Chapter 501: 325. The Disappearing Qing Chen_2
Lao Shijiu watched his boss’s retreating figure, thinking what could possibly be so important that Li Changqing would give up the chase to kill Jindai Tongwu and that A-Class expert?
After all, the Shield Defense Camp was about to arrive, and now was the best time to search and capture the Jindai family.
If they delayed for a while, the main members of the Jindai family in City 18 might have already found a way to leave the country.

But he knew, no one could stop what his boss had decided.
After Li Changqing arrived at Jinmao Tower, she took the elevator straight to the 130th floor.
Standing where Li Dongze once stood, she could tell with one glance that the sniper who saved her had indeed been attacked, and was severely wounded!
Li Changqing, across from the wall that Qing Chen had smashed with his back, also found a bullet hole from a sniper rifle. With this comparison, she almost knew what had happened.
But the question was, where was Qing Chen? Whose blood was on the ground?
The most puzzling part was, what was going on with the missing floor tile from the ground?!
If it was smashed during the battle, that would make sense, but the complete disappearance of one whole tile was not normal at all!
Li Changqing, with her suspicions, went to check the surveillance of Jinmao Tower, only to find that the hard drive storing the footage had long since vanished.
Qing Chen should not be dead, someone must have saved him.
But who was it?
She returned to the long street with her doubts.
By this time, the Shield Defense Camp had arrived and was searching the surroundings quickly.
Li Changqing looked at Xiao Ying, “Are you alright?”
“No… nothing’s wrong,” Xiao Ying said, “I was just waving the flag and cheering, no one bothered with me, and I didn’t dare to meddle with others…”
“As expected,” Li Changqing said, “Specialization in professions. For now, you just focus on driving, and you don’t need to join the fights until after the remaining injections of the Genetic Potion.”
Although Xiao Ying hadn’t been of much help in the fight tonight, that tail flick during the escape had astounded everyone.
If they had been trapped at the first ambush point set up by Jindai, it would have been all over for them.
Li Changqing asked Xiao Ying, “Can we still drive our car?”
“Even though we crashed into their SUV, our car is sturdy, the engine and everything are fine,” Xiao Ying said.
“That’s good then. Let’s head back to the mountainside estate now,” Li Changqing said.
While speaking, Li Changqing picked up the severely injured Lao Shijiu, who couldn’t move, and threw him into the back seat.
She, however, took the seat of the co-driver.
However, Li Changqing suddenly noticed something unusual, “Where are the bodies of the few Genetic Warriors on the ground? Why are there two missing?”
Trembling, Xiao Ying answered from the side, “Boss, it was really scary just now. While you were fighting, a Door of Shadow suddenly opened on the street. From that dark door, a hand reached out and pulled in the bodies by their ankles!”
Lao Jiu had already fainted again by then, so he didn’t know what had happened.
Xiao Ying had been terrified in that moment, the hand from the darkness dragging away bodies was an unimaginably horrifying sight.
Li Changqing was taken aback for a moment, “Door of Shadow? Don’t scare yourself, that’s the effect of the Taboo object ACE-008.”
She knew of such a Taboo, which had been recorded many times in history. The Taboo object ACE-008 was actually a necklace.
It was first picked up by an Ordinary Person by chance, at a time when the civilization of Transcendents had just started rising, and not many people even knew what a Taboo actually was.
Later, the function of ACE-008 was developed, and due to jealousy over owning a Taboo, that Ordinary Person was murdered.
It was said that this thing subsequently appeared in the hands of tomb raiders, thieves, Assassins, and now it is unknown who controls it.
Li Changqing had no leads, and she didn’t know who had stolen the bodies from the battlefield, so she decided not to ponder it any further.
She looked at the long street in ruins.
After tonight, Jindai’s foundation in City 18 could be foreseen being uprooted by Li Changqing.
How Jindai found out her schedule.
The origin of the vehicles driven by Jindai.
The places of residence of these Jindai experts, their sources of funds, and their methods of entry into the country.
All of these would become clues for Li Changqing.
City 18 is one of the Federation’s Gemini, a convergence point for too many forces and informants, yet from tonight onwards, the Jindai family would likely be unable to affect this place for at least a decade.
The loss of the Jindai family had already been severe enough.
The vehicle left the battlefield swiftly, entering the mountainside estate.
The assault on Li Changqing had already started to shock the whole estate, but she did not go to the Confidential Office. Instead, after sending Lao Shijiu to the medical facility in the estate, she asked Xiao Ying to drive to Autumn Leaf Courtyard.
In front of that small residence, the ‘No Visitors’ sign was still silently hanging.
Li Changqing pushed open the door forcefully and saw the empty interior with no sign of anyone.
The sniper had already left the battlefield, and this she knew very well.
Thus, Qing Chen should also have returned by now.
Unless, he was heavily injured and needed to hide away to recuperate.
She took out her phone, but found that her own phone had been smashed to pieces during the battle.
“Your phone?” Li Changqing looked at Xiao Ying.
Xiao Ying handed it over, “Boss, I don’t have Master Qing Chen’s number on my phone.”
“No need,” Li Changqing entered a string of numbers from memory.
Xiao Ying was shocked. Could their boss, Chang Qing, actually have memorized Qing Chen’s number?!
What the hell, even in the Outer World, hardly anyone memorized phone numbers for no reason anymore.
