Reborn : Space Intelligent Woman

Chapter 2280: Being Detained

Long Hui and Yu Qi checked out of the hotel the next day. He drove the car to the airport and returned it. They went through the security check. When the officers looked at Yu Qi and Long Huiʼs passports, they exchanged a quick glance. Long Hui and Yu Qi noticed that exchange.

However, they remained calm as if nothing had happened. They waited for the officerʼs action. One of the officers coughed once. The officers smiled back at Yu Qi and Long Hui.

”Mr Long, Ms Tang, we need to check your luggage as well.” The officer said.

”Sure.” Long Hui nodded.

The officers took the luggage and lifted the luggage before putting it on the table. Another officer seemed to block Long Hui and Yu Qiʼs line of sight to the luggage. Yu Qi and Long Hui still did not say anything. As they waited for the officers to check the luggage, another officer checked Yu Qiʼs passport once again.

Then, they heard the officers who heard their luggage shouting about something. All of the officers turned to them.

”What happened?” One of them asked.

”I found a bag that contained a white powder here. We run a test, and it comes out as cocaine.” One of the officers said.

One of them, probably their leader, turned around and faced Yu Qi and Long Hui.

”We found a drug in your luggage. Tell me, who does this drug belong to?” The leader asked.

”We donʼt know.” Long Hui admitted.

Of course, they would never admit that that drug belonged to them. It would take as a confession.

”We found the drug in your luggage. You still donʼt want to admit it?” The leader slammed the table.

Both Long Hui and Yu Qi remained neutral without any slight change in their expressions.

”We donʼt know.” Long Hui repeated the same sentence.

”And how does that drug in your luggage?” The leader said.

”We donʼt know.” Long Hui stated again.

”I will detain you.” The leader signalled his men to detain Long Hui and Yu Qi. ”Put them in the separate room for detention.”

”We want to contact our lawyer.” Yu Qi stated.

The officers looked at each other. The leader did not think much about that. This couple can not do anything here. Even if they called their lawyer, it would take some time for their lawyer to get here. After that, all of their phones had been taken away by the officers.

Yu Qi and Long Hui were separated. They had been placed in separate rooms. Yu Qi looked around the room. One surveillance camera and nothing else. Yu Qi was waiting silently in this room. Probably almost one hour.

Only then, the door open by a man in a black suit. He gave way to someone behind her. Looking at his gesture, the person behind him was probably his employer. A woman entered Yu Qiʼs room.

”Ms Tang, we meet again.” Angelica Lee greeted Yu Qi with a smile. ”You must not be expected to meet me here, right?”

”So, it is because of you. You asked someone to plant the drug in my luggage, are you?” Yu Qi asked.

”You are so smart, Ms Tang. Indeed, I am. ” Angelica Lee confirmed that it was her order.

”What do you want?” Yu Qi asked.

”Your technology and skills are very valuable to us. If you work for us, I am sure that we can achieve many things.” Angelica Lee said.

”Achieve many things, you say? Like using human beings like a child for your experiment?” Yu Qi asked.

Angelica Leeʼs facial expression changed. ”You! How do you...”

”You are the same as those people, right?” Yu Qi asked again.

”...”

”You think just because of one sentence that you can push the blame onto someone else, right? Those children, those people, you are the one who provides them to the research centre, right?” Yu Qi smiled.

Angelica Lee was not smiling anymore. She glared at Yu Qi fiercely.

Thatʼs right. The people who became the human subjects in the experiments were provided by the Lee Family. The Lee Family kidnapped those people and sent them to the research centre. Yu Qi discovered that when she asked Neko-chan and Han Baise to investigate deeper into the Lee Family.

”You...” Angelica Lee narrowed her eyes. ”Too dangerous.”

”If you donʼt cooperate with them to kidnap me, I probably donʼt know you.” Yu Qi said.

”You know everything. That is the reason why we can not let you go. Donʼt worry. We will create an accident showing that you die after that accident.” Angelica Lee stood up and wanted to leave the room. Before she stepped out of the room, she turned back to Yu Qi. ”Oh... As for your boyfriend, my cousin seems to take a liking to him. So, you donʼt need to worry much about him.”

Yu Qi narrowed her eyes. ʼCousin, she says? It must be Cindy Lee. Well... I hope you can be alright.ʼ Yu Qi was not worried about Long Hui.

Long Hui leaned over to the chair. He was waiting for someone to come. Then, the door was opened, and someone stepped into the room. The man looked tough.

”So, you are the one that I will be escorting?” The man laughed.

Long Hui did not reply. Then, he saw something move on his leg. It climbed up. When that thing was on Long Huiʼs lap, he recognised it. It was Shino.
