The Inconceivable Flame: A Fallen Angel“s Disguise Chapter 114 Plan Of Action

That night wasn't any better for Ru, she was also restless but her reason was obviously different than Xiao Zhi Ren's.
Early in the morning, she ended up at the outskirts of the city deep in the mountains. She was trudging her way towards the bamboo house when she saw Lilith running towards her with a scared expression. It immediately alarmed her.
Lilith stopped before Ru and panted before gesturing, "What is going on?"
Ru frowned at her question. "Shouldn't I be asking that? Tell me, why are you running?"
Lilith took a moment to catch her breath and gestured in sign language again, "Your Black Mist squad has gone crazy."
Ru's lips hooked slightly upward as she stated, "I picked up the craziest bunch. Tell me something I don't know."
Lilith rolled her eyes before adding, "From the moment they came back, all of them gave me tight hugs like they were choking me. And then there were such strange looks in their eyes. As if... As if they were pitying me, it made me so frustrated."
Ru immediately understood what was going on. So, she patted Lilith's shoulder and gave her a key saying, "I asked Wu Dishi to buy you a ride. It's a motorbike. Take caution while driving." Lilith's mood immediately lifted up and her eyes sparkled like people of her age. Ru liked the look on her face, it showed that she was indeed just like any other young adult.
Lilith snatched the keys and ran away to try her ride. Ru's expression shifted as she made her way inside the house towards the bunch of crazies.
"Can you imagine what Lili has been through?" Ru heard Adia's voice and halted in her track, not letting her presence known just yet.
"I can't even imagine that once upon a time Lili was one of those innocent souls that we saved last night." Jake's voice didn't hold his normal playfulness.
"Is it wrong to think that we failed? I seem like a failure for not being able to save Lili back then." Even the fifth and quietest member of the group, Edmund spoke up as he slammed his hand on the table.
"Rather than the regrets of the past," every one of them stood up as they heard Ru's voice as she continued, "Why don't you focus on the present? We can't control the past but we can control the present. Isn't it enough that we saved Lilith now than never?"
"Master is always right." Jack agreed with Ru as always.
"Jack and Jake, what happened with the girls?" Ru ignored his brown nosing and asked.
"We sent them to the safe facility under Knight Empires. They have only gotten a taste of the drug through the air, so they are not yet addicted to it. We can save them." Jake read the report plainly.
"What about their identities and families?" Ru asked further even though she knew the answer.
This time, Jack spoke up, "Their families are no more. And in records, they are dead as well." After a bit of hesitation, he managed to say, "Their vocal cords are damaged but... We can recover that through surgery."
Ru inhaled a sharp breath of anger before turning to the rest of them, "What did you find?"
"The place of the transaction was empty. We didn't find anything except for an empty warehouse. They must have gotten the information that someone intercepted their deal." Connor gave the report in a professional manner.
Clenching and unclenching her fists in anger, Ru stayed quiet for a while.
"What should we do with the people we caught? They know nothing. They were just working as a middle delivery man." Adia questioned in an almost hushed up voice.
"Get rid of them! Do I look like I care about what you do to them? If they don't have what I need then I don't need them alive." Her voice startled the five of them. It was rare seeing their master losing 'his' temper.
The thick silence got everyone tense. And none of them knew how to break it. All of them wanted to question her about their next step but none of them had the courage to deal with a pissed-off master of theirs.
Ru knew that she needed some new plan but for now, she was furious and with her rage, she could only come up with destruction and nothing else.
