The Furcummings family's hunt order was like a powerful electric current, quickly penetrating Europe and North America, and then spreading to the countless branches of power in the world of the huge family. But what I didn't expect after all was that a person's desire for business could be so powerful, so powerful that he could break through many things that I thought were impossible, and escape again and again.

It's been four days, and I've listened to Ye Ningchen's report in front of me, and just now, the last clue to track Phyllis has also been broken.

The huge foundation of the ancient family seems to be deeply rooted, and even if most of the power of Furcmings is used, it will not be easy to shake the Hill family for a while.

"Miss." Ye Ningchen called me in a low voice.

I relaxed my furrowed brow and came back to my senses, "What? ”

"Phyllis, she...... I just sent something," he said hesitantly, "for you." ”

I narrowed my eyes, "Take it." ”

He handed over a box, the lid open, presumably thoroughly inspected.

"I'm sorry, miss." His face sank.

"It's okay, I know you're here for my safety." I nodded knowingly, "Let's get out." ”

He still looked at me with some unapprehension, and bowed his head back.

In the gift box lay a high-end champagne, with a ribbon tied with a bow at the neck, and I swept my gaze to pick up the card on the side.

“To.share.my.joy。”

-- Share my joy.

With my eyes fixed, I calmly took out the champagne and uncorked it. Slowly pour the bubbling liquor into the flute-shaped glass.

Bright yellow, what a luxurious color.

The aroma seems to roll up the last rays of winter sunshine, blending into the bright cold.

I reclined on the edge of the table. Holding the stem of the cup, slowly pulling it closer, the aroma became more and more intense, and people couldn't help but taste it lightly in the intoxication.

"It's a shame." I whispered.

As the rim of the glass was about to close to my lips, I slammed the glass containing the champagne into the floor-to-ceiling window with a backhand.

A piercing and faintly pleasant sound burst out in all directions. Flying like a sharp blade, one by one cut through the light of the day.

Phyllis, I received the joy of your victory. Please don't forget our promise that night.

At this moment, the door to the office was pushed open softly but without hesitation, and Zosi appeared in the doorway.

Don't think about it, it must have been the sound that just now that alarmed some people to report to Young Master Zoxi. He walked in. His gaze swept over the edge of the window and shattered. He paused for a moment, then stared at me silently.

Without a expression, I straightened up from the table, walked straight forward, passed him, and stepped out the door.

Where are the roots of the ancient family?

Clear footsteps treading down the empty hallway, I asked in my heart.

Perhaps, I shouldn't have gone far and wide.

The pace stopped, not far out of the office. I didn't avoid him and dialed Ye Ningchen's phone. "Arrange to fly to New York at once - and, top secret."

I hung up, and there was silence behind me.

*

The night in the suburbs had a peculiar smell of clearness, as if even if it was cold, it should be colder and clearer, and I paced through the empty and silent wilderness, looking at a large and silent dark brown castle in the distance, and put my hands together and sighed to my lips.

The slightly heavy dampness in the air covers the face with a refreshing touch, as if the first snow is about to fall.

I took a deep breath and looked up at the solitary star in the sky.

The first time I can remember coming to New York was when the snow was falling, when I was a young child, I entered the Furcummings family with my mother, and met a noble boy who was as pure as ice and snow.

It was he who stretched out his hand to me for the first time, and brought me out of the uneasiness of crouching down and wrapping myself tightly in the shadow of my family changes, in the lonely night of the snowy courtyard.

He said that by piling the snow into what you want, holding it in the palm of your hand and waiting for it to melt completely, you will be able to get it before the first snow arrives next year.

However, I never imagined that the beauty that was unattainable at the beginning would become a bond that I could not escape for the rest of my life.

I shook my head, and at this time, Ye Ningchen, who was originally waiting not far away, suddenly hurried over.

"Miss," he gasped, his expression serious, "the target has appeared. ”

My heart tightened, and an indescribable stir rose in my veins, and she was really anxious when she came to the vicinity of the Hill family's old mansion to watch the changes.

"We haven't caught her yet, but we've held a few exits to the castle."

"Take me there." I was already impatient, but I was pulled by Ye Ningchen.

Looking at him with urgency and puzzlement, the undercurrent in his eyes was no less than mine.

"What Phyllis wants to do most is to kill you, even if we are completely corrobored in the castle, but there are countless light and dark passages inside, it is almost impossible to grasp her traces, once you appear, it must be unpredictable, if you push her to the end of the road, she will-"

"She will also pull me by the end of her death." I calmly made up.

"Miss." He whispered.

"Ning Chen, maybe you won't understand," my tone slowed down, "If it weren't for the sanctions of my own hands, if she died at the hands of someone else today, I would never be able to let go." ”

His eyes trembled, and his buried face seemed to bear something.

"Then, even if you fight for your life, I will protect you."

The hand that was gripping me was released, and he shoved a gun into my hand.

"No, you don't." I pushed back, "I brought it." ”

The vast and intricate castle was pitch black, and our men searched the upper floors, but they didn't seem to find anything.

"Visually, she brought two or three people, and she was indeed looking for something." Ye Ningchen protected me by my side and moved forward cautiously.

I looked around, and the traces of that time were still visible, but I also knew that the structure of the mansion was too complex, and the darkness of the moment was incomparable, it was really suitable for this kind of hiding game, and for those who were familiar with the terrain, they could fully control the initiative, which was both offensive and defensive.

This is not the way to go.

I suddenly raised my voice and said, "Phyllis, don't come unharmed. ”

Ye Ningchen was taken aback suddenly, I am so violent at the moment. Revealing oneself is almost tantamount to seeking death.

Ignoring his warning look, I still said unhurriedly, "No need to hide, every part of the mansion is my people, come out obediently." ”

I knew I was providing a target for the enemy, but I had no choice, if I didn't show up, with Phyllis's means of escape and her familiarity with every part of the Hill Mansion, I was sure that I wouldn't be caught, but if she knew I was coming, she would be tempted to kill me. confused, and not in a hurry to escape, in this way, will increase her violence. The opportunity to show her traces also bought us time to catch her. (To be continued......)
