Chapter 586: The Blind Box

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yarin’s POV:

I couldn’t be sure if those criminals had other accomplices, but Lily’s disappearance was so strange. Unless she was ambushed, I couldn’t think of anyone who would openly kidnap a young lady from the Silver Moon family in the Silver Moon Pack’s territory.

“I have to go there. Although my mother and Mr. Quinn have both sent people, you’ve seen Aunt Teresa’s attitude. I’m afraid that the search won’t be as exhaustive as it can be under her influence. Even if we let go of a clue, what awaits Lily is…”

Alfred said bitterly, “Mother, she… Alright, you’re right. She wants to end everything as soon as possible.”

Aunt Teresa stubbornly believed that this was Lily’s rebellious prank. Not only did she want to end all of this as soon as possible, but she also wanted Lily to never appear in front of us again. Lily seemed to have become a hindrance to her, which would make her lose face in front of the Queen and hinder her from gaining more power and status.

She hoped that Lily could take all the responsibility so that she could be an innocent and mentally exhausted mother. No criticism should hurt her.

However, I only thought about it in my heart and didn’t express my dissatisfaction with Alfred’s mother in front of him.

“There are three streets in total. Lily was not found on the left and the middle street, so she probably followed the crowd to the right. Let’s go to that street and look around. Maybe we’ll find something.”

The further away we were from Silver Moon Plaza, the fewer people on the streets. Of course, there were still large swaths of people, but it was not as crowded.

The people’s gorgeous clothes had caused us a lot of trouble. Everyone was dressed differently, and everyone looked different. This meant that the criminal could easily hide among the tourists. Even if he was walking in front of us, we might not notice him.

The guards had sealed off the street involved, and the tourists were being interrogated one by one. From time to time, there would be people complaining loudly. They seemed very suspicious, but when they checked their documents, they found they were born and raised in the Silver Moon Pack.

“Lily is quite skilled and is a living person. The person who kidnapped her would not have taken her out on the streets. It is very likely that she is hidden on this street,” Alfred said. “This street isn’t long, but at least a hundred households are on it. It’ll take too much time to search for them one by one, and it might even alert the enemy.”

“How about having the guards guard every house? This would save time and prevent the criminals from taking Lily away.”

Alfred shook his head. “The police force is limited. We can’t mobilize so many people in a short time. Moreover, in such a noisy festival, it is difficult not to attract attention when deploying manpower. Instead, it would alert the enemy in advance. This street seemed only to have two entrances, but many stores are along the street. The stores usually had a back door, easily allowing people to escape to other blocks.”

“In this case, it is very likely that the criminals have already taken Lily away?”

“This is the worst-case scenario. Perhaps we are searching in the wrong place. However, we can’t take care of the other streets. Now, we have to trust the strength of the guards for the time being. They have surrounded these three streets like iron buckets. The criminals can only move within these three streets even if they want to move. They will be caught sooner or later.”

Yes, they would be caught sooner or later, but we didn’t have that much time to wait. Every minute we waited, Lily would be in more danger.

I couldn’t establish a link with my mother, so I always subconsciously ignored it. Alfred and Lily’s relationship reminded me of it, so I suggested, “Your mind-link with Lily can reach three streets, right? Why don’t you try calling out to Lily first? That way, we can coordinate from the inside!”

To my surprise, Alfred revealed an awkward expression. He wanted to say something, but he hesitated. Ultimately, he said, “I can’t contact Lily. We… Although we are biological siblings, blood is not the only deciding factor.

“Lily is emotionally rejecting her family, including me. She subconsciously avoided me, so the mind-link between us has been broken for many years. Even when I call out to Lily, she never responds.”

“… I’m sorry, I didn’t know that.”

Alfred smiled bitterly and said, “But I will try to call her nonstop.”

From the looks of it, it seemed like we could only stupidly search one by one and wait for time to filter out the real criminals. However, looking at the guards on the street, they were gradually replaced by the Silver Moon family. I didn’t know how many of them listened to Francis and how many listened to Aunt Teresa.

The Silver Moon family’s members were much more perfunctory. They basically let werewolves pass when they saw them. Even among the humans, they would only choose those who looked strong enough to undergo a simple identification check. I even doubted whether they could tell the authenticity of the identification.

The defensive force visibly relaxed. This was simply a chance to escape!

“We can’t drag this on any longer.” I made up my mind and dragged Alfred into a hidden alley.. “Can I trust you, Alfred? Will you promise to keep everything you see today a secret?”
