Chapter 266: Far from Enough
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Qilan looked at Cheng Ling.
Cheng Ling also looked at him.
His facial contours were three-dimensional and distinct, white and translucent by the cold light above his head. His long, thick black eyelashes cast a shadow in his eyes, and his eyes became deeper and deeper. Although there was a lot of bloodshot eyes due to staying up late, his eyes were full of blood. Still clear.
She could almost see her reflection.
Cheng Ling sighed softly.
Let’s not talk about the relationship between them more than 800 years ago.
She could see that Brother Lan admired her, and maybe had a slight liking for her.
However, this is not enough.
She is waiting.
Waiting for Brother Lan to gradually deepen his feelings for him until he can vibrate with her soul, resonate with her thoughts, and love as deeply as her.
Of course, she won't just wait.
Adult love cannot stop at inner turmoil.
She could unleash her charm on him unscrupulously, and she could boldly seduce him.
Until Brother Lan loves him so much that he can't help himself.
"Brother Lan, forgive me for hiding it from you... At that time, I didn't trust you, and I wanted to protect myself..." Cheng Ling bit her lip gently, her twinkling eyes shining, "I... once He is the captain of the H Rangers, and Alexai is my team member.”
"Then can you tell me how you did it?" Jiang Qilan asked softly.
"Brother Lan... do you believe that there is a soul after death?"
Jiang Qilan hesitated for a moment.
He recalled some distant childhood memories—strange things that could not be explained and that no one believed.
Finally, he nodded.
"Then it would be much simpler for me to explain... This matter begins with my drowning in the sea market. At that time, my soul was incomplete..."
…
Cheng Lingyan spoke concisely and focused on the key points, but skipped over everything related to eight hundred years ago.
Jiang Qilan listened carefully.
"Later, when I visited my grandfather in Hangzhou, by chance, the two souls in my body merged. So I had both the memory of the agent and the memory of this body."
After Jiang Qilan experienced the initial shock, he quickly accepted everything.
There were too many incongruous things about Cheng Ling, but as she explained, he realized where these incongruous things came from.
"...Then, I noticed that Alexei was exposed, so I went to Jin City with you." Cheng Ling paused, feeling that his lips were a little dry.
Jiang Qilan handed over a cup of Pu'er tea that was just the right temperature.
"So, the five criminals who were killed in the bombing were also Amos' men?" Jiang Qilan asked, "They are from another faction..."
Cheng Ling raised his head and drank the Pu'er tea from the cup, then pursed his lips and said, "Sheepdogs, Amos calls them shepherds."
"They wanted to arrest my mother, but let her escape?" Seeing Cheng Ling nod, Jiang Qilan continued to ask her, "Then how did you find my mother?"
"I saw it from the chat history of that software. The sheepdog who assassinated the reporter said that your mother mysteriously disappeared on the way to the airport. And the current leader of the H Rangers, Nolan Lampson, was at the place where your mother disappeared. Mission nearby."
"Nolan was my deputy before and knows that your mother has a good relationship with me. Therefore, I make a bold guess that it was him who saved your mother."
"Based on what I know about Nolan, he should look for opportunities to send your mother out of the United States as soon as possible. Since California is on the west coast of the United States, flying is too risky, so he should arrange for your mother to take a boat."
"He either arranged for your mother to go to Mexico or Canada."
"Based on a process of elimination, I targeted three ports. Two were in Mexico and one was in Canada."
"The road surveillance system in the United States is not easy to hack, so I hacked into the surveillance systems of these three ports. Just before you called me to ask me out, I saw an acquaintance in a Gulf port in Mexico - that was our The owner of the H Rangers safe house. She is a very reliable and powerful old lady.”
"Not long after a cruise ship docked, I saw your mother. She was wearing a mask - it should have been given to her by Nolan, but I couldn't mistake the way she walked. She met the old sister and followed her Got in the car in the parking lot.”
"Don't worry, only the captain and deputy team members know the location of most of the safe houses of Ranger H, as well as the owner's information. None of the team members, nor Amos, know the existence of this old sister."
Cheng Ling looked at the clock on the wall and raised his eyebrows slightly, "They should be almost at the safe house."
"What about the severed hand that Amos wants?" Jiang Qilan asked, "Do you need my help?"
"No need, I will go to Bangzi Country early tomorrow morning. There, I will explode the severed hand. The true time of death cannot be determined from the corpse after the high-temperature explosion."
"After the processing is completed, I will ask the organization [Granting Wish] to send the severed hand to the place designated by Amos."
Jiang Qilan sat there, silently sorting out his thoughts.
Finally, he raised his head and looked quietly into Cheng Ling's eyes.
he asked, "I only have one question left."
"In addition to soul fusion, what else happened in the Hangzhou temple?"
"What can make you put down your guard against me and even tell me everything?"
