Chapter 95 A Scheme Within a Scheme (11)
“It seems your companions have abandoned you!” Ma Mingzhe stood still, his gaze fixed on Xu Jie’s figure as she flew away until she disappeared from sight, and slowly spoke.
Beneath the calm tone, there seemed to be a subtle hint of sarcasm.
Upon hearing this, Yu Li, who was lying on the ground to the side, trembled slightly, but did not respond to Ma Mingzhe's words.
He simply closed his eyes silently, as if trying to shut out everything from the outside world.
Seeing Yu Li remain silent, Ma Mingzhe continued, "Hmph, it doesn't matter if you don't reply. Our Special Affairs Bureau has always been principled. As long as we thoroughly investigate your situation, we will handle it in accordance with the relevant legal procedures."
After saying that, Ma Mingzhe said no more and stood quietly beside Yu Li, patiently waiting for the arrival of follow-up support.
Time passed second by second, and all around was deathly silent, with only the rustling sound of a gentle breeze rustling through the grass.
Just then, a deafening roar of propellers suddenly came from not far away, breaking the tranquility.
Hearing the sound, Ma Mingzhe looked up and saw two armed helicopters and a transport plane bearing the distinctive markings of the Harbin Special Operations Bureau rapidly approaching them.
In the blink of an eye, the armed helicopter landed steadily beside Ma Mingzhe and his companion.
Immediately afterwards, the cabin door opened, and a squad of ant soldiers jumped off the plane like a whirlwind.
Immediately after receiving a nod from Ma Mingzhe, several ant soldiers carrying specially made sturdy shackles quickly stepped forward.
With swift movements, they firmly handcuffed Yu Li's hands and feet.
Then, they lifted up the defenseless Yu Li and walked straight into the transport plane.
A moment later, as Ma Mingzhe calmly stepped onto the plane and gently closed the cabin door, the two helicopters roared to life and sped straight toward the Harbin Special Operations Bureau base.

At the same time, on the other side, Chen Yexi and Yu Sheng were running at full speed.
After about twenty minutes of all-out sprinting, the two finally stopped, panting, in a secluded grove of trees in the eastern district of Harbin that had not yet been searched by the army.
This grove of trees is located on the edge of the East District. The surrounding environment is quiet, and apart from the randomly appearing fishermen, few people would venture here.
Chen Yexi, now back in human form, leaned against a thick tree trunk, panting heavily, large beads of sweat sliding down his face.
After resting for a while, he slowly reached into his pocket and took out an old-fashioned cell phone. His fingers skillfully operated on the keypad, found Yu Li's phone number, and pressed the dial button.
However, only a monotonous dial tone came from the other end of the phone, and after more than ten seconds, no one answered.
Chen Yexi's brows gradually furrowed, her face darkened, and an ominous premonition welled up in her heart.
He immediately hung up the phone and pondered for a moment.
I scrolled through my contacts again and found Xu Jie's phone number.
After taking a deep breath, I pressed the call button and waited quietly for the other party's response.
Not long after, the call was answered.
However, before Chen Yexi could speak, Xu Jie's voice, clearly choked with sobs, came through the microphone.
"Brother Ye Xi! Where are you? Just now... just now Brother Yu Li was arrested by the Special Affairs Bureau to protect me... Waaah..." Xu Jie sobbed as she spoke intermittently, her words filled with panic and helplessness.
Upon hearing the crying, Chen Yexi knew things were complicated and could only quickly and gently comfort her: "Xiaojie, don't panic, don't cry, calm down first, okay? Come here with us quickly."
Chen Yexi tried her best to keep her tone calm and gentle, hoping to appease Xu Jie and prevent things from becoming more complicated.
Then, Chen Yexi quickly told Xu Jie their exact address and repeatedly told her to be careful on the road.
After confirming that Xu Jie remembered clearly, he gently pressed the hang-up button to end the call.
At this moment, Yu Sheng, who had been standing to the side, naturally heard the conversation clearly.
His already worried face instantly became even more somber, filled with deep concern.
Seeing this, Chen Yexi could only silently walk to Yu Sheng's side, pat him on the shoulder, and wait quietly.
A moment later, Xu Jie rushed in from one side of the grove.
Her petite figure moved about in the dappled light and shadow, looking somewhat disheveled.
Before long, Chen Yexi and Xu Jie discovered each other's presence almost simultaneously.
Chen Yexi was sitting quietly on the grass when he saw Xu Jie. He immediately stood up and walked towards Xu Jie with steady steps.
And Xu Jie? When she caught sight of Chen Yexi, she rushed over without hesitation, as if she had found a lifeline.
In the blink of an eye, she had thrown herself into Chen Yexi's arms, hugging him tightly, her body trembling slightly, and she began to sob softly.
Chen Yexi was at a loss for what to do, so she could only raise her right hand and gently pat Xu Jie's back, trying to comfort her.
Just then, Yu Sheng, who was standing nearby, stood up and slowly approached, saying softly, "Xiao Jie, don't cry! Since Xiao Li did this, he definitely won't blame you."
Hearing this, Xu Jie's crying subsided slightly, but she remained nestled in Chen Yexi's arms, refusing to look up.
After a while, perhaps her emotions had calmed down a bit, Xu Jie finally slowly lifted her head from Chen Yexi's embrace and looked at the two people in front of her with her red and swollen eyes.
At this moment, seeing that Xu Jie had recovered, Chen Yexi asked with a serious expression, "Xiao Jie, tell us again in detail what exactly happened back then?"
"Also, can you be sure which person in the Harbin Special Operations Bureau took Yu Li away?"
After listening, Xu Jie took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and then began to recount what had happened.
He then recounted every detail to Chen Yexi and Yu Sheng.
After a short while, Chen Yexi and Yu Sheng listened attentively to Xu Jie's narration.
I already have a general idea of where Yu Li is going.
However, what puzzled Chen Yexi and Yu Sheng was that they had never seen the Kamen Rider who looked like a wasp, as described by Xu Jie, in Harbin before.
Fortunately, based on the information currently available, the Harbin Special Operations Bureau chose to arrest Yu Li instead of disposing of him on the spot, which means that there may still be a chance for things to turn around.
Thinking of this, Chen Yexi breathed a slight sigh of relief, and then quickly organized her thoughts in her mind.
Soon, Chen Yexi finished thinking, turned to Xu Jie and Yu Sheng, and said, "In my opinion, Yu Li should not be in too much danger in the short term. We need to find a safe place as soon as possible, and then think about how to save Yu Li."
