"How is the situation?" Clarice asked immediately after contacting Raymond and returning.

Lorna knew what Clarice was doing, but Peter didn't know much about it, but he didn't have the energy to pay attention to it now. While paying attention to the situation on the monitoring equipment, he replied without looking back:

"Jesse has already arrived at the location the guy said. It seems to be a bar with a lot of people, so Jesse shouldn't notice anything until he shows up."

"Wait, don't talk yet, listen." Lorna suddenly signaled Peter and Clarice to stay quiet, because she seemed to hear something going on in the monitoring equipment.

Clarice and Peter quickly stopped talking and listened carefully to the monitoring equipment.

Sure enough, they heard a familiar voice, the voice of the man on the phone before:

"My sweet little Jesse, it seems that you are a person who keeps your promises, which is good."

"I came as promised. Where are my family members? If you let them go, I can go with you." After the man finished speaking, Jessica immediately answered.

"Don't worry, your family is very nice, I didn't hurt them." The voice laughed, "Besides, you will be sad if you hurt them. You are so cute, how can I bear to make you sad?"

"What do you want?" Jessica's tone was not very friendly, although it could be heard that she was trying her best to restrain herself.

"I just want to get to know you. Although I have been watching you, we have never really been in close contact. Today is the first time."

"Just to get to know me, you kidnapped my family," Jessica asked through gritted teeth.

"Again, I did not kidnap your family. They came to my place voluntarily as guests." The voice said with a smile, not caring about Jessica's attitude at all.

"I don't want to argue with you. I just want to see my family now." Jessica emphasized without continuing to argue with the voice, "Now I have come to see you alone as you requested. If you want to go back on your word, Even if I die, I won’t make it easy for you.”

"You really came to see me alone" the voice smiled softly.

"Of course" Jessica said without hesitation.

"Aren't your companions worried that you will fall into my trap?" the voice continued to ask, chatting in a homely manner.

Jessica: "So what if I'm worried? My family is in your hands. Can I not come?"

"That's true. If I were them, I wouldn't just ignore you. After all, you are companions." The voice said slowly.

"Of course, they installed monitoring and positioning equipment on me. As long as they find my family, they will come over immediately to help me catch you."

not good

The expressions of the three people who had been monitoring the conversation between Jessica and the mysterious man changed at the same time.

Because they finally realized something was wrong

Although Jessica is not particularly witty, she is not stupid either, and it is impossible for the other party to trick her out of these words in such an unskilled way.

And they could clearly hear that Jessica's last tone had become a little strange. If I had to describe it, it was similar to the tone when her family members talked to her on the phone that day, unusually calm.

It would be strange if Jessica's tone was full of uncontrollable hatred one moment, but became so confused and calm the next moment.

However, by the time they realized that Jessica's condition was not right, it was already too late.

I only heard the voice continue: "They are so disrespectful to us by doing this. Is there any way you can stop them from spying on us?"

"Just destroy it." Jessica said calmly.

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a burst of noise from the surveillance equipment.

"Both of my buttons were destroyed." Peter's face became very ugly when he heard this noise.

"Lorna, stay here, Peter is coming with me." Clarice put on the mask and used her backhand to create a space door.

Peter had also prepared a mask in advance. When Clarice opened the space door, he quickly put on the mask and then jumped into the space door.

Lorna was left alone waiting anxiously, because she knew that she was lacking in speed, and this moment would not be as effective as in the past.

A few minutes later, the space door opened again, and Clarice and Peter returned wearing masks.

"How is it?" Lorna asked hurriedly.

"It disappeared. Jesse is no longer there. The other party should have been prepared and escaped with Jesse in a way that we couldn't detect." Clarisse said in a deep voice.

"Damn it, I should have thought that the other party wouldn't make such a childish mistake." Peter ripped off his spider mask and threw it to the ground.

He regretted very much why he didn't secretly put an extra button on Jessica.

If there is one more button that Jessica doesn't know about, it can at least delay the other party's plan, and maybe Jessica can be rescued.

"It seems that unfortunately you guessed it. That guy is indeed a psychic." Lorna looked at Clarice.

Clarisse also took off her mask and nodded with a heavy expression.

"You have already guessed it, so why didn't you tell me earlier?" Peter looked at the two of them with some annoyance.

Clarice was about to explain when she was suddenly interrupted by the sound of the doorbell.

Ding Dong

Hearing the sudden doorbell, both Peter and Lorna were slightly shaken, and their expressions became solemn.

Only Clarisse seemed to have remembered something and said to the two of them, "Don't be nervous, it should be one of our own."

"One of our own" Peter was a little confused by the word.

Since the four of them formed the Guardian Alliance, apart from each other, not even their families knew about it.

Who can I have at this time?

Lorna reacted and asked with a hint of surprise, "Your brother"

Clarisse nodded subconsciously at first, then felt something was wrong and shook her head again.

Lorna looked a little confused.

Clarisse didn't have time to explain and walked straight to the door.

At this time, Peter asked Lorna in a low voice: "Clarice, is her brother also a superpower?"

Lorna nodded, not hiding anything.

She hadn't mentioned this to Clarisse before because she didn't think it was necessary.

Now in this situation, there is no need to hide it.

"But what does Kelly mean by nodding and shaking her head just now?" Lorna was also a little strange in her heart.

She knew that Clarisse should have called her brother before, so she subconsciously thought that it would be Raymond who would call at this time.

But judging from Clarice's reaction, it seems that's not the case.

With this doubt, the two of them also walked towards the door, wanting to see who was coming.
