Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 613: Just a Little Blood

The phone rang seven or eight times without anyone answering, and Yun Ran’s expression suddenly became a bit grave.

She instinctively wanted to calculate what was happening on Gu Yuan’s side immediately.

But just as she raised her hand, Yun Ran suddenly remembered that her Spirit Platform had been sealed by her junior uncle.

No one answered on the other side for a long time, and the call automatically disconnected.

Yun Ran sighed lightly. Ever since she could remember, she had been learning the knowledge of the Xuan Sect, and as she got a bit older, she could predict and calculate a lot of things.

But now, she couldn’t even use the most basic calculations. Ah, it’s frustrating!

Meanwhile, at the border, Gu Yuan was gritting his teeth and holding his arm, the blood had already soaked through his fingers.

During the recent melee, the noise was so loud that he completely missed hearing his phone ring.

The subordinate, who replaced him to host the big picture, also came running over at this moment, panting heavily.

His hair was a mess, and the custom-made suit worth tens of thousands was wrinkled. His complexion looked even more troubled, alternating between pale and flushed.

"Gu Chu, all the people have been exterminated, but..."

Gu Yuan leaned against a stone, listening to the subordinate’s hesitating way of talking, and became impatient.

"If you have something to say, just say it. Stop being wishy-washy, what kind of behavior is that!"

The subordinate hesitated for a moment before speaking: "We discovered people locked up in the basement at the enemy’s stronghold, they were all tricked and kidnapped.

If we hadn’t launched a surprise attack today, these people might have been sent out of the border tonight..."

Gu Yuan suddenly stood up straight, and his hand momentarily lost its composure upon hearing this news, causing him more pain.

"Are you saying we got the wrong target? These people were just human traffickers!!!"

No wonder Gu Yuan was excited. They had come here and split their forces into two lines, both overt and covert, and had finally locked onto their target.

And now, to be told they had targeted the wrong people?

This was no mere mistake in their work; it was like a blatant slap in his face.

The subordinate watched Gu Yuan being so angry and cautiously shrank his shoulders.

Gu Yuan gave him a helpless look: "What’s with your expression? Do you think I would take it out on you?

Alright, transfer this case to the local police station, and meanwhile, investigate the origins of those traffickers!"

The subordinate immediately felt like the Magic Ring over his head had disappeared and secretly exhaled a sigh of relief: "Yes, Gu Chu, I’ll contact them right away."

After finishing the proper business, the subordinate looked at Gu Yuan’s wound: "Gu Chu, let me take care of your wound."

Gu Yuan impatiently waved his hand: "I can handle this little injury myself, go handle the following matters quickly!"

Because currently, this subordinate is the one publicly replacing him in handling all affairs, naturally, he needs to show up everywhere.

The subordinate paused for a moment: "Alright, I’ll get busy then."

Watching the subordinate walk away, Gu Yuan took out some Medicine Powder from his bag, sprinkled it on his arm, and quickly stopped the bleeding with a simple bandage.

After finishing all this, Gu Yuan finally began to think about the clues they had found before.

It seemed someone had deliberately guided them all along, being schemed against wasn’t a big deal.

But if someone leads you around by the nose from start to finish, the implications behind it could be immense.

Gu Yuan retrieved his phone, intending to report to the boss.

From the start, someone had misled them on target identification; if there wasn’t an insider involved, he’d be willing to twist his own head off.

Anyway, the people at the few action points on this side of the border are now unusable, he needs to replace them with a new team.

Once the phone screen lit up, Gu Yuan saw Yun Ran’s missed call.

"It’s three in the morning; something urgent must have happened for Ranran to call me!"

Gu Yuan immediately called back.

The phone barely rang once before Yun Ran answered.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Gu Yuan pretended to sound cheerful: "Ranran, it’s so late, why are you calling me? Is something the matter?"

By the sound of his voice, there didn’t seem to be anything wrong, plus Yun Ran couldn’t use Xuan Sect methods now.

She directly asked: "Did you guys have some action today?"

This question stunned Gu Yuan for a moment because he knew Yun Ran well; she was always a very measured person.

Not to mention Yun Ran wasn’t a part of the Special Administration Bureau even before. Even when she was a temporary worker, she never enquired about other people’s tasks.

Such unusual behavior made Gu Yuan’s heart skip a beat.

He trusted Yun Ran but was well aware that friendships were friendships, and work was work.

Gu Yuan didn’t immediately answer Yun Ran’s question; instead, he asked: "Why suddenly interested in my missions? Are you planning to rejoin the Special Administration Bureau?"

Yun Ran held back her speechlessness. Who in their right mind would enjoy being a grunt, as if born with a lowly bone!

Rolling her eyes, Yun Ran said: "Nothing really, it’s just that the Luck Bead I gave you before reacted in some way. I’m worried something might be up with you."

Upon hearing Yun Ran’s words of concern, even though her tone wasn’t very pleasant, Gu Yuan couldn’t help but laugh.

"It’s nothing; you know me, right? First-rate ability, and my scheming is also top-notch, I just happened to accidentally get slightly scratched earlier, with just a little bloodshed.

I really didn’t expect, the things from your Qingfeng Temple to be so sensitive, that just a little blood, you could sense it from your side.

Alright, it’s already late, continue to rest, I still have other things here to deal with."

Gu Yuan didn’t want to say too much, and Yun Ran couldn’t point out anything. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

She could only say: "Alright, be careful, especially of strangers."

Those words, if someone else said them, Gu Yuan might listen casually, because everyone’s reminders weren’t that original.

But since Yun Ran said them, Gu Yuan had to dissect them word for word; Yun Ran wasn’t someone who says things without meaning.

Once the call ended, Gu Yuan thought it over and instinctively felt that Yun Ran was insinuating that something was wrong with the victims who were rescued today.

And why not suspect the traffickers? Naturally, because they had been wiped out, who else would focus on the dead.

Gu Yuan called the previous subordinate on the phone.

"For those rescued victims, use high-level authority to scrutinize all of them. Even if they check out, observe them for a month!"

The subordinate was a bit puzzled about why Gu Chu suddenly issued such an order.

Generally, anyone the Special Administration Bureau people focused on was really someone whose eight generations of ancestors would be scrutinized.
