Chapter 620: SOMETHING IS AMISS
'Wait a second! What's going on? Who is capable of doing it?' Mu Lan felt rather envious. 'Did Mohammed Akram's team… but why would he do that? He could just save it somewhere else and besides our team hasn't arrived yet. There is no logic of permanently deleting it. Moreover, he can only give us the deleted copy. Or maybe, he doesn't want us to be suspicious and check the security system. What if we check the security system and find out; however, I don't think he will let us control the security system since there are lots of hidden deeds were recorded. And it seems like he didn't delete those footage, but why this one…'
Getting no clue, Mu Lan bit down her lower lip. After thinking so hard, suddenly something caught her mind. 'Or maybe, it was done by the third party and that's why Mohammed Akram cannot give me the footage even though I asked him. But why will there be a third party? Wait, the third party…. Could it be Liang Liang? But where would he get such genius?'
There was something burning in her heart thinking that someone as intelligent as her helped her Liang Liang to get out of this place.
Altan carefully glanced at her. He was a bit cautious because the girl beside him omitting an evil aura.
'Lord Buddha! Lord Buddha!' He started praying in his heart. He didn't know when he turned into a pious person.
Somewhere in heaven, Lord Buddha was meditating. However, a certain someone kept disturbing him. "Tsk! This man! What is he being afraid of? Will she eat him alive? And he still dares to call himself a killer. What a nuisance!"
Somehow Altan could hear Lord Buddha's scolding, he murmured, "Easy to say but difficult to do."
Lord Buddha: "…"
"What are you mumbling?" Mu Lan frowned.
Altan was already feeling dejected. He said being a bit pissed off, "Don't give attention to me. Do your work. And, do you know that you are frowning too much? Keep doing that and you will be aged before us."
Mu Lan stopped frowning. She rubbed her forehead and eased her temper. 'No, I don't think it's a girl. It could be a man. Also, Liang Liang won't betray me. I know it. Okay, all I need to know if Liang Liang is alright. If he is, I will bring him back without any further delay. If he is not, then I will burn down this palace and then leave with Liang Liang. I also have a backup. As long as brother Feng has the evidence, what can Mohammed Akram do to us? Well, he doesn't know that we have the evidence. I will give him some surprise attack. And about Liang Liang, how did he get out of this place without someone's help? Someone indeed help him. But where is he now?'
While thinking something flashed in her mind. She silently gazed at Altan before looking at the white screen of the laptop. She again glanced at him.
Noticing her gaze, Altan asked, "What?"
Mu Lan asked, "Did you help Liang Liang to get out of this place?"
Altan expressionlessly gazed at her. "And why would I do that?"
She narrowed her eyes. "You are telling the truth, right?"
"I have no reason to lie." Altan innocently replied. He had no idea what made her think so.
Mu Lan still wasn't sure if she should believe him or not. But she knew that Mu Liang got an inside help for sure.
Just then, she got an evil plan in her head. "Hehehehehehe…." She began laughing.
Altan gazed at her suspiciously. She looked really mischievous. He saw that she was typing in her laptop so speedily that her fingers were nearly flying. He had a bad feeling about it.
After half an hour, she was done with her work and turned off the laptop. "Ah, life is blissful."
"Should I take the laptop?" Altan asked.
She leaned back and lightly said, "Yes, you can take both laptop and the Wi-Fi and vanish them for now. I don't need them here anymore. Let the nature take it's course."
Altan coughed. "You mean let the devilish plan of yours take the course."
She dramatically cupped her face with both hands and pretended to be surprised. "Oh my, you are genius!" She was happy that someone admitted that she was capable of making evil plan.
Altan Yul: "…"
After Altan Yul vanished out of the sight and left with the laptop and the Wi-Fi, Mu Lan changed into normal dress. She wore a blue silk blouse, silk pajamas and chiffon transparent kurti. She liked this style. She planned on telling Qi Ying about this design. While she was thinking, a maid knocked the door.
"Aren't they disturbing me too much today? It's not even twenty-four hours and they knocked the door more than ten times." While complaining, Mu Lan opened the door.
The maid said, "Mater is asking for your presence in the party."
"I'm tired. I want to sleep." Mu Lan tried to close the door.
The maid unhurriedly said, "He said that it was urgent. It's regarding a missing guest."
'Liang Liang?' Mu Lan stopped. She said, "Wait for me to get changed."
After she closed the door, she frowned. 'There is something amiss. I can't let my guard down. Though I have a plan….'
She took a silk shawl and covered her upper boy with it. She didn't forget and cover her head as well. She tied her leg with glittering lace and attached her cell phone, passport, small purse, some band aids and Swiss army knife.
After that, she locked the door from outside was walked towards the party venue. The room was still bustling and filled men and women.
Before entering the room, Mu Lan halted and peeped what was going on inside. It was a good thing that no one was escorting her and even the guards weren't there.
Looking at the scenario inside the room in horror, Mu Lan stepped backward; and then bumped into someone.
"You!"
