keep the moon
Chapter 56
The peaceful days didn't last long for Jiang Shouyue. When she received that video, Jiang Shouyue immediately thought that someone had played a prank on him, until the face of the person in the picture was revealed little by little.
It was Lu Xiuming's face.
Jiang Shouyue's face suddenly turned pale, and the communication screen became unstable and fell to the ground.
After a while, Jiang Shouyue hurriedly bent down to pick it up again, her face full of panic, the groaning sound on the screen was still resounding, Lu Xiuming's thin body was lying naked under the complicated machinery.Fingers frantically dialed out Lu Xiuming's communication method, but after waiting for a long time, there was no connection there.
This has never happened before, no matter how busy Lu Xiuming is, he will never miss his contact.
Cutting off the communication without hesitation, Jiang Shouyue sent a message to the person who sent him the video, but the other party had obviously blocked him, and the message could not be sent at all.
It looks like it's been planned for a long time.
Jiang Shouyue hurriedly got up and planned to go out. Draper was not in the manor now. Jiang Shouyue didn't contact him, but just talked to the housekeeper. The housekeeper saw Jiang Shouyue's anxiety and tried to persuade Jiang Shouyue but failed. Draper was contacted.
When Jiang Shouyue came to the slums in Suoyaodu District in a hurry, although Jiang Shouyue was not a regular visitor here, most people recognized Jiang Shouyue because of Lu Xiuming's relationship.
"Master Jiang, why are you here today?"
There was a mother-in-law selling noodle soup on the side of the road. When she saw Jiang Shouyue, she greeted him. Normally, Jiang Shouyue would stop to chat with the other party, but now she didn't even have time to give him a smile. She just nodded slightly. , and then quickly came to Lu Xiuming's house.
But the door has been locked, and even the people who were stationed at the door are gone.Lu Xiuming's spirit is extremely high, even when he is on a business trip, he will hire someone to look after his appearance, there is absolutely no way he will let it go so far.
Something must have happened to Lu Xiuming.
The sound of Jiang Shouyue's knock on the door attracted some people from the slums. When they saw Jiang Shouyue, there was a flash of surprise in their eyes.
"Master Jiang, stop knocking, Xiaolu is not inside."
The mother-in-law selling noodle soup was also attracted by Jiang Shouyue's news, and kindly reminded her.
"Grandma, do you know where he went?"
Jiang Shouyue was very anxious and also very surprised. No one in the slums thought it was strange that Lu Xiuming had disappeared for so many days.
"Ah? Didn't you send someone to pick up Xiaolu, Young Master Jiang?"
The mother-in-law was full of doubts, "Some time ago, the royal family's car came here and locked Xiaolu's house. We all thought that Xiaolu was looking for you, Young Master Jiang."
"The royal car?"
Jiang Shouyue has never found anyone to take over Lu Xiuming. He was even in the Legion some time ago, so how could it be...
For a moment, Jiang Shouyue thought of someone, Draper.Lu Xiuming's operation was even arranged by the other party. It is impossible for a person as rigorous as the other party not to pay attention to Lu Xiuming's movements.
"To die."
Jiang Shouyue left the slum anxiously, but before he could contact him, the person he was looking for came to his door.
Looking at the cars parked outside the slum, Jiang Shouyue was taken aback for a moment.When Ruojiu saw him coming out, he got out of the car, bent down and opened the car door respectfully for Jiang Shouyue:
"Ma'am, please."
Sitting in the car was the person Jiang Shouyue couldn't wait to see right now. His silver head was still conspicuous, and he was turning his face slightly, his eyebrows and eyes still gentle, just looking at him quietly.
At this moment, Jiang Shouyue understood that he had already got the answer.The other party obviously concealed Lu Xiuming's matter from him.
"Why? Draper."
Jiang Shouyue frowned, swept away the usual calm, stepped forward to block the car door and questioned the other party,
"I remember you and I guarantee the safety of Guo Lu Xiuming."
"This incident was my negligence. Someone pretended to be us before the operation and took Mr. Lu away."
Draper's expression was indifferent, as if he had thought of the current situation long ago, taking advantage of Jiang Shouyue's unpreparedness, he reached out and fished Jiang Shouyue into the car, then raised his eyes to signal Ruojiu to close the door.
Jiang Shouyue was held in Draper's arms, and subconsciously wanted to struggle, but Draper didn't give him this chance, turned on his communication screen, and showed Jiang Shouyue the news collected these days:
"Because Mr. Lu's facts are too strange, I didn't tell you the first time. Mr. Lu has actually disappeared for many days, and the person who kidnapped him is also very smart, knowing that we were not in the manor some time ago. action was taken.”
Draper reached out and clicked on a section of surveillance, which was from a slum area.
"There are very few security facilities in the slums, and a lot of monitoring has been intentionally damaged by people, but in fact the whole logic is not difficult to reason about. If the person who took action against Mr. Lu understands Mr. Lu's movements and our movements, then as long as A conclusion can be drawn by checking the people who visited the manor during that time and the people around Mr. Lu."
What Draper said undoubtedly meant that he had already found out who the other party was, but at this critical point, Draper kept his mouth shut. This made Jiang Shouyue very anxious, and even directly touched Draper's leg Side, urged:
"So who is it?"
Draper did not answer right away, but raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Shouyue quietly for a while, and finally reached out and took Jiang Shouyue's head into his arms, and then spoke the answer:
"I'm sorry, but after the final investigation, the only one who fits this requirement is your cousin, Mr. Jiang Shouqi, Shouyue."
The moment Jiang Shouyue heard this name, Jiang Shouyue's pupils widened instantly, as if hearing something incredible.He had thought that it was Lu Xiuming's enemy, or even his enemy's intentional revenge, but he never thought that it would be Jiang Shouqi.
His cousin who has been doing nothing for a long time and is very obedient.
"How is it possible? Jiang Shouqi, he..."
Jiang Shouyue still couldn't believe it, but Draper felt that the answer was reasonable. He reached out and patted Jiang Shouyue's back while saying:
"Do you remember what I told you? Your cousin is not as simple as it seems."
"...It's really impossible. He and I grew up together."
"Nobody stays the same."
Even Draper himself failed to insist on himself, but do you regret it?Draper's answer was no.If he had been insisting on himself, he might not even be qualified to touch the person in his arms at this moment.
"Then what should we do now? Where is Lu Xiuming now?"
Jiang Shouyue was terrified. Maybe he should go back to Jiang's house to find Jiang Hua. In the video, Lu Xiuming closed his eyes tightly, not knowing whether he was dead or alive. This made Jiang Shouyue completely unable to calm down.
"I want to go back to Jiang's house, Draper."
"Shouyue, calm down, I have already sent someone to investigate."
Draper tried his best to comfort the Omega in his arms. The reason why he didn't tell the other party at the beginning was because he thought about the current situation.
"If Jiang Shouqi really took Lu Xiuming away, it would ensure that Mr. Lu's life would not be in danger. Alpha has a strong desire to protect his own omega, so you don't have to worry too much about Shouyue."
"But I really can't feel at ease, I can't help..."
Jiang Shouyue shook his head slowly. There were only a few people he really liked in this world, and he couldn't calm down easily.
"Trust me, okay?"
Draper whispered in Jiang Shouyue's ear,
"I'm also an alpha, and I know this better than anyone else."
It was Lu Xiuming's face.
Jiang Shouyue's face suddenly turned pale, and the communication screen became unstable and fell to the ground.
After a while, Jiang Shouyue hurriedly bent down to pick it up again, her face full of panic, the groaning sound on the screen was still resounding, Lu Xiuming's thin body was lying naked under the complicated machinery.Fingers frantically dialed out Lu Xiuming's communication method, but after waiting for a long time, there was no connection there.
