Chapter 659: 657 Chapter Old Road (17)_1 Chapter 659: 657 Chapter Old Road (17)_1 “Get out.”
Fran, holding onto the car door, looked at Lei with an unprecedented determination in her tone.
“What do you mean?”
Lei was not one to be so easily spoken to and immediately asked with a cold face.
“This is Kateman’s car, and I don’t know what secrets you two have between you, but I won’t give up on Jessica that easily.”
“Now, I will take his car and go back up the mountain… You either come with me, or you get out of the car.”
…
Unexpectedly, Fran suddenly showed such courage. Center of attention, Lei thought for a moment and finally got out of the car and walked to one side.
“As you wish.”
It was clear that he really did not want to go back.
“Do you know how to drive?”
Fran, having successfully commandeered the vehicle, was pressing the car door but turned to look back at Fu Qian.
“You don’t know how to drive?”
Fu Qian asked in complete surprise.
“No.”
You don’t know and yet you act as if you do!
Looking at this courageous girl, Fu Qian shook his head.
“Could I ask you to take me up there? I want to search for Jessica one last time, otherwise, I’ll never be at peace.”
Fran asked with a pleading expression.
“I know these series of events can be frightening, but it’s okay, you don’t have to go inside later, just wait for me outside.”
“No matter the outcome, we will both return before dark.”
Listening to her seemed reasonable.
Fu Qian glanced at Lei nearby, who was wearing an expression as if he were watching a good show.
“Okay.”
“Thank you!”
Seeing that Fu Qian had agreed, Fran immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Clearly, making this decision was not easy for her as well.
No need to thank me, because even if you didn’t go, I would have gone again.
Fu Qian thought to himself.
It was the truth. Fu Qian felt that even if the “Mysterious Killer” really was his target, Laxik, he didn’t believe that walking into a trap would actually happen.
Keeping an eye on Lei was not very meaningful.
And currently, many things seemed to be somewhat related to the ancestral home on the mountain. Even if it wasn’t to look for someone, it was completely worth exploring again.
However, Fran’s initiative to propose going back was somewhat surprising to Fu Qian.
It could only be said that at a critical moment, this girl had more courage than the others.
It was evident that Jones was also somewhat surprised, but undoubtedly, with no clues at the moment, having someone willing to take the initiative to help with the search was not a bad thing for him, so in the end, he refrained from giving any opinion.
…
Having already traveled the mountain road more than once, it didn’t take long for the two of them to reappear at the ancient manor.
This decaying behemoth lay sprawling halfway up the mountain; looking at it at this moment, it felt exceptionally oppressive.
“Please wait outside for me for a while.”
Fran seemed very nervous, but in the end, she set her jaw and spoke.
“If it gets dark and I haven’t come out… you can go back first and also, please call the police for me…”
This tone was like making final arrangements!
Fu Qian commented silently, without any intention to ridicule and simply got out of the car.
“Let’s go in together.”
“Really? That’s great!”
Fran’s eyes lit up instantly.
Over the past few days, Fu Qian had undoubtedly given her a very reliable impression.
“Jessica—”
The same scene from when the four people left it greeted them inside the building, and almost as soon as she entered, Fran attempted to call out.
She could no longer care what she might disturb at this point.
