Lu Yan was imprisoned so suddenly that he had no time to react before he was locked up.

Fortunately, the room is very large, there are cameras installed almost everywhere, and the facilities inside are complete, so Lu Yan will not encounter any inconvenience.

"Can you find Xiang Chi's location?"

System: "No, the distance is too far, and I can no longer sense the other party's presence."

The way the situation had developed was indeed beyond his expectations. He had not expected to face the current situation after returning.

"But I can sense that the other party should have noticed that you are missing, and is rushing over here." Because as time went by, he could feel that Xiang Chi was getting closer and closer, and the location he could detect became more and more accurate.

Lu Yan sat down helplessly. I don't know what expression Xiang Chi will use to question me this time. I ran away, but my teammate immediately became the enemy teammate.

"I finally came back, but I was still suspected and imprisoned in disguise. But I remember that he was not like this before."

Lu Yan didn't have a deep impression of the representative who founded the research institute, but he knew a little about his character.

"What exactly are they planning to do?" Lu Yan could only get some useful information from a few words. "What is Xiang Chi planning?"

Lu Yan was struggling when the door suddenly opened. "Master Lu, please come with us."

Lu Yan stood up and followed him out. After all, even if he refused, he would be forcibly taken out. It would be better to walk out by himself, which would at least be more decent.

He walked out for a short distance and saw the man standing there, looking not far ahead with a grim expression.

This building is located not far from the institute, but is now used as a base for human representatives.

Lu Yan walked over and saw Xiang Chi opposite him. Xiang Chi's eyes had almost never left Lu Yan since the moment he appeared, and his sight was always on Lu Yan.

He first looked around at Lu Yan, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong with him, he turned to look at the person next to Lu Yan and said, "I want him. You set the conditions."

The person Xiang Chi was referring to was naturally Lu Yan.

Hengyu, the tall man standing next to Lu Yan.

"Oh? What if I refuse? I don't need what you give me." Hengyu even stretched his body forward slightly and looked directly into Xiangchi's eyes. "And who are you? Are you qualified to stand here and talk to me?"

Xiang Chi did not respond, but raised his hand and snapped his fingers. At this time, a lot of young people could be seen from behind Xiang Chi, or to be more precise, people of all ages.

Lu Yan felt somewhat familiar with the people behind him and felt he had seen them somewhere before.

"Host, those people behind him are all from the research institute." The system quickly gave Lu Yan the answer.

'No wonder it looks familiar.'

Xiang Chi looked straight at Heng Yu and no longer looked at Lu Yan.

"You don't need to care who I am. From now on, I will let them take action until all these people are killed, or until you are willing to agree to my request just now."

"Bring it here."

Xiang Chi said to the person next to him, "This is the list of everyone in this institute. I will start reading out the names now...whoever I read out will be the first."

A slow and orderly voice came from Xiang Chi.

"Wait." Hengyu had to stop them. "How many people do you want to replace?"

Xiang Chi then stopped and said, "I want Lu Yan to be exchanged for half of the people in the research institute behind me."

"No, I want all the people behind you." Hengyu did not give in. "I want them all to come back safely."

Lu Yan didn't say anything. He just looked at Hengyu and Xiang Chi, watching them make the decision for themselves to stay or go, and use their own stay or go to decide for so many people.

Xiang Chi was no longer in any mood. Ever since Lu Yan ran away, he had been like this, looking a little paranoid.

Xiang Chi had obviously run out of patience. He simply raised his hand, took out his pistol, and fired directly into the crowd next to him.

"Mother-in-law."

Lu Yan opened his eyes wide and saw that the elderly grandmother in the crowd had fallen to the ground and couldn't get up.

Lu Yan could even recall what his mother-in-law had done at the research institute, and he could also imagine that she always cared about whether Lu Yan had eaten and whether his body could hold on.

The body was quickly dragged away. Lu was about to walk forward, but Hengyu ordered someone to stop him.

"Let me go, Xiang Chi, you're crazy." Lu Yan looked at Xiang Chi in disbelief. The other party was not the amnesiac Xiang Chi he picked up and who obeyed him in everything. He didn't expect that the other party would actually shoot and kill someone.

Xiang Chi ignored Lu Yan's voice and said without hesitation, "I don't have that much patience to bargain with you. Decide now."

Hengyu looked at Lu Yan and said, "I'm sorry, no matter what, sacrificing you in exchange for so many people is worth it, right?"

He said this without giving Lu Yan a chance to react. He was still immersed in the scene of his mother-in-law being killed.

"Okay, you let him go first."

Xiang Chi burst out laughing. "I have the most hostages here, but considering..."

Xiang Chi finally agreed to let half of the people go back first, and then watched Lu Yan walking towards him step by step. When he was about to get closer to Lu Yan, the other party had already raised his hand and smashed it down on his face.

Xiang Chi restrained Lu Yan and said, "Listen to me."

Lu Yan resisted frantically, so Xiang Chi had no choice but to knock him unconscious. He then held Lu Yan and stood up, "Go back, take all those people back. As for those people over there..."

Xiang Chi took the time to take a look at the kickback, then turned around and left with Lu Yan in his arms. His target had always been only Lu Yan, and the lives of those research institute staff meant nothing to him.

No matter how many people died, he could remain calm, but in front of Lu Yan, the mask could not be maintained.

The unconscious person in his arms still had a look of resistance in his eyes. Even if it was only a few hours, or possibly even shorter, his heart was incomplete during the time Lu Yan was away.

Xiang Chi couldn't make any decision now, so he had to take his people away first, and someone else would naturally clean up the remaining mess.

Even when sitting in the car, Xiang Chi still had no intention of letting go of her hand. He kept holding the person in this position and returned to the house where he was temporarily staying.

There was no one here, but there were still many people guarding outside the house. Without Xiang Chi's permission, none of them could get close to this place.

Xiang Chi carefully placed Lu Yan on the bed. He had hit him a little too hard just now, so there were still marks on his neck.

"Sorry." Xiang Chi said in a low voice.
