บท 1589: Chapter 1589: Qian Yan, are you awake?

"My lord, I have already carefully investigated that couple before, they..."

"My lord, the couple is gone."

Before he could finish his sentence, a familiar voice came from above.

"What?"

The men in black were dumbfounded, standing stiffly in place.

"Impossible, they must have gone out shopping, definitely."

A good while later, he finally snapped out of it, still clamoring in disbelief.

"Indeed, they have escaped."

The subordinate sent upstairs added a few more words.

"My lord, I asked the guests staying in the room next to the couple's. They said the couple left carrying someone on a stretcher. According to those guests, the person on the stretcher appeared to be severely injured; it must be...

the person we are looking for."

He glanced at the men in black and then at the leader, swallowing hard.

This statement was essentially saying that they had found their target but due to a lapse in attention, allowed them to escape right under their noses.
