Chapter 161: Control Method

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Luo Chen was not in the mood to think about the butler’s complicated thoughts. Right now, he only wants to sleep!

If he didn’t sleep soon, he really wouldn’t be able to take it anymore!

With that, he slept until dawn. This time, no one disturbed him.

When he got up, he saw that it was already morning. In any case, he was already late for work. Recently, all the projects in the company were on the right track, so he could consider slacking off.

He had been a rich second-generation heir for so long, but he had never enjoyed life.

When Luo Chen walked out of the bedroom in his pajamas, he realized that something was wrong.

Logically speaking, there were many bodyguards and nannies in his manor so the manor should be very lively, but now, it seemed a little deserted.

The corners of Luo Chen’s mouth twitched when he called the butler over to ask.

The three of them had already woken up. Even though they were imprisoned in the basement, they were still restless and kept making a fuss. A bodyguard went over to teach them a lesson, but was injured in the end.

In the end, the other bodyguards refused to accept defeat and suffered losses one after another. The nanny and other staff even went to mediate the fight.

Seeing that Luo Chen was sleeping soundly, the butler didn’t dare to wake him up. In the end, it was a vicious cycle.

“Alright, I’ll go take a look. Didn’t I say not to provoke them?”

Luo Chen was caught between laughter and tears. When he arrived at the basement, all he saw was sorrow.

Although it was said that they were locked up, the basement of the main villa was not much different from the first floor. It was enough to accommodate hundreds of people.

As soon as he entered, he saw the captain of the bodyguards sitting at the door, clutching his chest. It looked like he had suffered at the hands of the three prisoners.

After settling the chaos at the scene, Luo Chen finally saw the siblings huddled in the corner.

They seemed to be afraid of strangers. They had already dealt with the bodyguards in the entire manor, but now, the three of them looked as if they had been bullied. They huddled together and looked at Luo Chen in fear, as if they had yet to calm down.

Only then did Luo Chen understand why the three of them had been wearing hats to cover their faces.

It had to be said that the genes of the three of them were really good. The elder sister was delicate and beautiful, and the two younger brothers were also indistinguishably handsome.

It was almost as if they were carved from the same mold.

If their faces were exposed, it would make their opponents lose their mind without even fighting.

Luo Chen pondered for a moment and pulled a chair to sit in front of the three of them.

He didn’t know what to say for a long time.

“You… you… just kill me…”

The woman was the first to speak. When she spoke, her tone couldn’t help but tremble. It did not look like she was pretending.

Boundless fear almost enveloped her, causing her to shrink into the corner.

“Are you still afraid of them?”

Luo Chen couldn’t help but laugh.

“Kill me… Just kill me…”

The woman seemed to have been scared silly. She was so close to Luo Chen. With her ability, as long as she attacked, Luo Chen might not be able to completely dodge her attack at such a close distance.

However, the woman did not notice this at all and just kept muttering.

Her two younger brothers however, didn’t dare to say a word. They just faced the wall with their backs facing Luo Chen. They were more than two meters tall but they had almost shrunk into a ball.

“As long as you stay here obediently, I won’t make things difficult for you. However, I’ll let you go when you’re willing to tell me who instructed you to do this.”

Luo Chen said calmly. At the same time, he was puzzled. What kind of environment could create such strange three siblings?

They said that they had normal identities, but what kind of identity could they have if they were so afraid of the crowd?

They probably wouldn’t be able to live on their own, right?

The woman trembled as she looked at Luo Chen, as if she was struggling to understand the meaning behind his words. But soon, she seemed to have given up listening to Luo Chen and kept looking around.

Luo Chen frowned slightly. He felt that this woman was looking for something.

However, the basement had not been renovated much to begin with. As far as the eye could see, it was basically empty.

However, the woman continued to look around. The more she looked, the more anxious she became, as if she had not found what she wanted.

“What are you looking for?”

Luo Chen couldn’t hold back his curiosity and asked.

However, the woman had no intention of answering. She continued to look around.

Gradually, her body began to twitch unconsciously and the two men were in similar states.

Before Luo Chen could react, the woman began to foam at the mouth and squirm on the ground.

Like a fish out of water, she looked as miserable as could be.

The two men were in similar states. In less than five minutes, the three of them lay on the ground twitching.

This scene shocked Luo Chen, but when he saw the abnormal bruises on their bodies, he gradually had a guess.

With the three of them’s strength, their status in that organization was probably not too low.

However, they probably didn’t have any real power.

If he guessed right, they should be hired thugs who were completely controlled by the organization.

What would be the most effective thing to use to control a person and let them live without any intention of resisting?

It must be poison!

It also had to be a poison that could only be suppressed with constant doses of antidotes. Once there was no antidote, the poison would immediately take effect when the time was up. This could ensure the loyalty of the thugs and also ensure that if their mission failed, the enemy wouldn’t be able to trace it back to the source.

After all, when a man is already dead, no matter how good an interrogation was, it was impossible to pry open a dead person’s mouth.

Luo Chen glanced at his watch.

It had been exactly twelve hours since they met.

An abnormal smell pervaded the enclosed basement, causing Luo Chen to sniff involuntarily.

It was like fish that had been fermented for a long time after they died. The stench kept stimulating his nose and making him feel uncomfortable.

The conditions of the three of them were getting worse and worse, and the bruises on their bodies were getting darker and thicker. If one looked at them carefully, they would look like they had livor mortis.

Even Luo Chen felt uncomfortable when he saw this.

However, the appearance of bruises on the surface of their bodies meant that the poison would affect their blood circulation. If they could recuperate, with their powerful physiques, they might be able to recover.

As for detoxification…

Luo Chen couldn’t guarantee that he could do it, but he knew that he couldn’t let these three die in his hands.

After hesitating for a moment, he quickly ran back to his room to retrieve his silver needles and instructed that no one was allowed to approach the basement. Only then did he quickly run back.

In less than five minutes, the siblings’ situation had deteriorated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Suddenly, the woman raised her head and stared at Luo Chen..
