BXBX NOVEL Chapter 266 - 266: Vanished
Lan Dahai’s figure flashed through the crowd, but Wang Xiao was still certain that he was not mistaken.
After meeting at Kaiyang Restaurant last time, Wang Xiao had always felt that there was something wrong with this Lan Dahai. Later on, Ma Yunle’s description further confirmed his guess.
However, because he could not find this person, Wang Xiao could not investigate further. He did not expect to meet him here today!
“Follow me!”
Wang Xiao called out and had already chased after Lan Dahai.
Zhou Xiruo was slightly stunned and hurriedly followed. She carefully asked softly, “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
“I just saw Lan Dahai.”
Wang Xiao explained briefly and then roughly explained what had happened previously.
After Zhou Xiruo digested this information, Wang Xiao continued, “I suspect that Lan Dahai is related to the Purple Star people. If we can confirm this, it will be the best gift we can give Commander Chen.”
After speaking, he did not hear Zhou Xiruo’s response. Wang Xiao felt puzzled and turned around, only to see her smiling at him.

“Why are you looking at me?”
Wang Xiao frowned and asked. He paused for a moment before shaking his head. “No, what are you smiling at? Did I say something wrong?”
“No, I just think it’s quite interesting.”
Zhou Xiruo shook her head and smiled teasingly. “I forgot who said it today, but he said that if he helps Commander Chen in the future, he would be smashed like milk tea.”
Wang Xiao was embarrassed and speechless. After a few seconds, he whispered, “I said it out of anger. It doesn’t count…”
Zhou Xiruo sneered and was about to speak when Wang Xiao’s expression suddenly turned serious. “He’s there!”
Hearing this, Zhou Xiruo’s expression turned cold as she looked over. Indeed, she saw Lan Dahai walk into an alley not far away. However, that alley was
remote and tnere were not many people. It tney t0110wed mm like tms, tney would most likely be discovered.
Just as Zhou Xiruo was thinking about what to do, Wang Xiao had already put on the [Nirvana Mask].
“The two of us are too big a target.”
As Wang Xiao spoke, with a thought, he transformed into a middle-aged man. “Wait for me here. I’ll go over and take a look.”
“No way!”
Zhou Xiruo grabbed Wang Xiao. “Didn’t you say that he might be in contact with the Purple Star people? If you’re really right, aren’t you walking into a trap?!”
“Don’t worry, I know my limits.”
Wang Xiao smiled and twisted his wrist to break free from Zhou Xiruo’s hand.
By the time Zhou Xiruo reacted and wanted to stop him again, Wang Xiao had already run into the alley.
Seeing Wang Xiao’s figure being swallowed by the shadows in the alley, Zhou Xiruo immediately had an ominous feeling.
However, at this point, Zhou Xiruo could only wait. Wang Xiao had transformed into someone else and could escape even if he was seen. However, if she followed him, they would really be exposed.
With this thought in mind, Zhou Xiruo patiently waited. She did not expect to wait for more than an hour and still not see Wang Xiao come out.
The ominous feeling in Zhou Xiruo’s heart became even stronger. She wanted to check, but she was afraid that she would expose Wang Xiao. However, she was really worried if she did not go over.
Just as Zhou Xiruo was burning with anxiety, someone suddenly called out from behind, “Miss Zhou? Why are you here alone?”
“Senior Ma?”
When Zhou Xiruo turned around and saw Ma Yunle, she immediately felt as if she had encountered reinforcements. She grabbed Ma Yunle and said anxiously, “Senior Ma, help me! Wang Xiao hasn’t returned from following Lan Dahai. Can you help me take a look?”
Ma Yunle was confused when he heard this. He patted the back of Zhou Xiruo’s hand and comforted him. “Don’t be anxious. What happened? Why did Wang Xiao follow Lan Dahai? And why didn’t you go take a look yourself?”
“There’s no time to explain! ”
Zhou Xiruo waved her hand fiercely and pointed at the alley not far away. “He’s been in there for more than an hour! Help me take a look first. I’ll explain to you when he comes back!”
..Alright.”
Ma Yunle nodded blankly and walked into the alley.
Seeing this, Zhou Xiruo heaved a sigh of relief. Ma Yunle appeared in the trading market all year round. Even if he appeared nearby, it would not arouse suspicion. Even if she could not find Wang Xiao, she would at least know what was going on inside.
In the blink of an eye, five minutes later, Ma Yunle walked out of the alley with a faint helpless expression. Without waiting for Zhou Xiruo to speak, she asked, “Miss Zhou, I don’t think I’ve offended you before, right?”
Zhou Xiruo was stunned when she heard this. “Senior Ma, what do you mean?”
“It means that we have no grudges. Why are you playing with me in the middle of the night?”
Ma Yunle looked displeased and pointed at the alley. “That’s a dead end. There’s only an abandoned house inside. I went in to take a look. Not to mention Wang Xiao and Lan Dahai, there’s not even a strand of hair inside!”
“What did you say?!”
Zhou Xiruo exclaimed. Her first reaction was disbelief. She did not see Lan Dahai clearly when he entered, but she saw Wang Xiao clearly when he entered!
Without waiting for Ma Yunle to say anything else, Zhou Xiruo had already rushed towards that alley. Now, she no longer cared about whether she was exposed or not. She only wanted to find Wang Xiao as soon as possible!
There were no lights in the alley. When Zhou Xiruo rushed in, she felt her vision darken. After pausing for a few seconds to adapt to the light, she realized that this was really a dead end.
The length of the alley was about ten meters. On the left was an L-shaped three-story building. The short side blocked the alley. The bare walls were ten meters high and it was difficult to climb up without tools.
On the right was a residence. The dilapidated courtyard door was open. Ma Yunle probably did not close the door when he left. Zhou Xiruo only took a look before pushing the door open and entering.
Behind the door was a small courtyard. It was also dilapidated. Behind the weeds that were half the height of a person was a dark house. It did not look like there was anyone inside. Moreover, the beams were crooked, as if they could collapse at any time.
However, at this moment, Zhou Xiruo was burning with anxiety and could not care less. After a slight pause, she rushed into the dangerous house to look for Wang Xiao. However, other than the tattered furniture, there was only large amounts of dust inside.
“He’s really… gone?”
Zhou Xiruo muttered and sat on the ground as if she had suddenly lost all her strength. She looked at the empty house with empty eyes and a tear subconsciously fell from the corner of her eye.
When Ma Yunle chased over, he saw this scene. He immediately swallowed the complaints at the tip of his tongue and probed with a complicated expression, “Did Wang Xiao… really come here?”
Zhou Xiruo turned around stiffly and looked at Ma Yunle with eyes filled with despair and panic.. Large tears slid down her face and she muttered with a trembling voice, “He’s gone… He’s gone…”
