While Hei Yuhua was busy saving people in the Secret Laboratory, Prosecutor Ye Yuyan was finally freed from the media and public people for what happened in those bombing cases.

After finishing this part of the mission, Prosecutor Ye Yuyan returned to his Condominium Building to wait for the rest with Lou Wei and Yun Jie. It was System Yue who had pretended to be Hei Yuhua during the short moment when they were filmed by the media companies that came to report the bombing cases all over the city. This is the reason Poppy, Ying Su, believed that they weren’t involved in this event where all the illegal drug warehouses were destroyed.

Upon returning to Prosecutor Ye Yuyan’s unit, the three of them were welcomed by Bao Jin and Shi Wuya who just come back from their mission, Lord Hei and Lord God Ye watching a horror movie in the living room with the first mentioned couple, and Iris who finally woke up from his short nap.

Bai Jin, who was using Shi Wuya as a seat while hugging a big bowl of popcorn in his hands, looked at them when he heard the sounds of the front door opening.

“Yo! You guys are back. Thanks for the hard work.” said Bai Jin.

Lou Wei dragged his tired body inside the house and fell boneless on the couch.

“Ah~ I’m so tired. Those hyena-like reporters. How can they arrive on the scene that fast? You should have seen the cameras they were all brought over. I thought we were shooting at Hollywood’s!” complain Lou Wei.

Yun Jie spoke, “Seat properly! Give some space to sit on.”

“Sweetie, you can sit on me! Upfft!!” said Lou Wei as he got a light kick to his stomach from his fatigued lover.

Prosecutor Ye Yuyan looked serious as he went near Iris and saw him watching the surveillance of the Secret Laboratory under the Red Poppy Syndicate’s ownership.

He could only silently approach and watch the screen himself. Prosecutor Ye Yuyan saw his mate sitting on only one of the couches in the Grand Hall of the place he was in. Seated beside him, is a middle-aged aunt smiling at Hei Yuhua moving her mouth nonstop as if telling something endlessly to his wife. He immediately recognizes the identity of the woman beside his wife.

Prosecutor Ye Yuyan asked, “Is this the mother of Yu’er?”

“She is. Together with her husband, they were both taken by the Syndicate a few years ago. It has been more than a decade since they were forced to work for the Syndicate,” said Iris. “The Syndicate only targets scientists with no background. These two grew up in the orphanage.”

Prosecutor Ye Yuyan asked, “Did the Syndicate also target my wife this way?”

“Yes but none of those who were sent to capture returned alive. He is more decisive than his parents and eliminates his enemies without any second thoughts. You’ve married such a fierce wife aren’t you?” said Iris.

Prosecutor Ye Yuyan said, “My wife isn’t fierce.”

“Captain, your wife isn’t fierce only at you~” commented Lou Wei.

Yun Jie covered his lover’s mouth when he saw the face of the big boss turned ugly.

Lord Hei suddenly pokes his head out from his husband’s embrace and says to Ye Yuyan.

“I suggest you guys back up, Yuhua. If I were the hidden villain, the most probable suspect for burning down the warehouse would be the little girl connected by blood with Yuhua. Sending executives would be a surprise right?~” said Hei Anjing.

Ye Xiajie said, “Don’t move and continue watching the movie, Jing’er.”

Mwah! Hei Anjing gave his husband’s lips a loud peck and said, “Okay~, my love.”

Upon hearing Hei Anjing’s sudden warning, Prosecutor Ye Yuyan, Lou Wei, and Yun Jie decided to come to where Hei Yuhua is.

Lou Wei said, “Captain, I’ll go with you.”

“I…” Yun Jie’s words were cut off but Prosecutor Ye Yuyan.

“Stay, Xiao Jie. I need someone to stabilize those who would be teleported here,” said Prosecutor Ye Yuyan.

Yun Jie nods his head as he knows that Ye Yuyan is right.

“Please bring brother back safely!” said Yun Jie.

Ye Yuyan said, “I will.” Only then did he and Lou Wei disappear from the room once again.

After the two disappeared, Bai Jin asked, “Is it okay for only two of them to save the first one, Lord Hei?”

“Well, one should be enough but… the possibility of their identities coming out would be bigger, I think. By the way, I made some shortcakes while you two brought them out,” said Hei Anjing.

Bai Jin and Shi Wuya like to eat sweets as well so they didn’t mind following Hei Anjing’s orders. While Hei Anjing glanced at Iris and said,

“You should also clear up the traces. Send warning messages to Yuhua. Better to block all kinds of signals before taking your leave. After my husband’s and my tasks are done, you are returning to Netherworld with us and recreate your original vessel.”

Iris saluted and lowered his head in a practiced manner, “As you wish, My Lord!”

—

Back at the Secret Laboratory’s Grand Hall.

Mama Hei keeps talking while Hei Yuhua silently listens. This was the scene Papa Hei and Hei Yumei witnessed upon rejoining the group.

Hei Yumei was delighted to see them and was about to see her brother and mother when her father stopped her.

“Ah! Big Bro…”

“Let them be for a while. Your mom misses your brother a lot. All this time your mother had been blaming herself after I made her leave A’Yu in that orphanage. I also regret my decision at that time.” said Papa Hei.

Hei Yumei asked, “Dad, you miss Big Brother a lot as well?”

“Of course! The last time I carried your brother he was only a two-year-old baby. But at this moment, the knots in his heart would take time before we can regain his trust back,” said Papa Hei.

Hei Yumei recalled the awkwardness between her brother and her. When she hugged her brother for the first time, she felt his body freeze as if he didn’t expect such closeness from her. There is even hidden envy in his eyes sometimes when looking at her. Hei Yumei knew that this was because she grew up with her parent’s love and care while her big brother grew up alone to fend off himself in the cruel society. She could only be silent as she thought about those things.

All of a sudden an alarm was heard coming from Hei Yuhua’s earphones. This is a signal that someone was calling him from the outside. When he answered the call a frantic voice of Iris was heard.

{Hei Yuhua, emergency situation! Nightshade is on her way to your location

Leave immediately!}

{I repeat! Emergency situation! Nightshade is on her way to your location

Leave immediately!}

Hei Yuhua suddenly stood up and said to everyone in the area. Thankfully, he had already finished writing the teleportation circle on the ground of the open hall.

“Everyone! Get inside the circle! We already have a lot of time!” shouted Hei Yuhua.

He had already placed the tied-up prisoners inside the circle and everyone followed his command and stood inside with him as well. Beside him, Mama Hei was standing quietly with Papa Hei and Hei Yumei.

Hei Yuhua contacted System Yang in his mind. Only System Yang is able to activate the Teleportation Spell Circle drawn on the ground.

‘System Yang, please begin!’ said Hei Yuhua through his thoughts.

System Yang responded, Leave it to me.

While the others were stunned and confused about what was happening at this moment they still stood still inside the circle without complaining. This is not only because they had witnessed Hei Yuhua’s cruelty but at the same time, they no longer have any more choices to choose from.

Bang!

When everyone entered the teleportation spell circle, System Yang activated it per Hei Yuhua’s request. It takes a few seconds before it fully activates when suddenly a black shadow flies toward Mama Hei clearly targeting her. Hei Yuhua saw that it was a bullet and pushed his mother away from harm. This let the cover on his face rip which in the end, resulted in his face being seen by everyone.

Everyone was shocked when they saw Hei Yuhua’s face, especially the ones who had worked

longest with the Old Hei Couple immediately saw the similarities between the four people from the Hei Family.

“What is this? He looks so similar to Professor Hei Wan and Professor Xu Yuli!” 𝙚𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙤𝙧𝒈

“Look at those silver eyes! Those are definitely hereditary!!”

“But Professor Hei Wan and Professor Xu Yuli have no son!”

“No! They had one! This young man must be him!”

“No wonder he came here. He must have come here to save his parents.”

Hei Yuhua ignored everyone’s voices and looked behind him to see where the bullet came from. He pushed her mother towards her father.

“Don’t leave the circle.”

“Yumei, listen to the person you would meet in the building.”

“I will but what are you going to do, big brother?” asked Hei Yumei.

Hei Yuhua replied, “Stay. I need to stop the person from stopping your transfer.”

He was about to step out of the Teleportation Spell Circle when two pairs of arms grab him. It was Mama Hei and Papa Hei. They didn’t speak a word but wanted to stop him. Mama Hei was already in tears.

Hei Yuhua’s voice turned a bit gentle as he says, “You need to let go.”

But Mama Hei was shaking her head strongly rejecting Hei Yuhua’s request. The hands of Mama Hei that were holding Hei Yuhua’s arm tightened instead.

“No. I won’t. I won’t let go again.” said Mama Hei between her cries.

Hei Yuhua hesitated to speak and look at his father instead. They didn’t speak a word to each other and just stared at each other’s eyes as if they could converse with their eyes alone.

Papa Hei chose to stop his stubbornness and said, “Is there no other option but for you to stay, A’Yu?”

“No. I will be alright. Just wait for me to return. If you see my husband… please tell him what happened. He would come over to save me,” said Hei Yuhua.

Though Mama Hei and Papa Hei didn’t expect their son had been married. Hearing that he had a husband means he is an omega. They didn’t talk about this topic at this moment.

Papa Hei lowered his hand and helped pull away his wife’s hands as well. Mama Hei struggles with her husband’s actions but the difference in strength is apparent.

Mama Hei shouted, “What are you doing!? Don’t send my son to death!?”

“Calm down. A’Yu will be okay. But if we continue to stay here we will become a burden and he would have a bigger possibility of losing his life. We can only leave wife,” said Papa Hei.

Hei Yumei shouted, “Big Brother!!!?”

Before the others could react, Hei Yuhua had already stepped out of the circle, and the light coming from the spell circle got brighter.

System Yang’s voice resounds in Hei Yuhua’s head, Teleportation Spell Activated! Transferring has progressed!

“Hua’er!!!” Screamed Mama Hei before they faded into nothing.

Hei Yuhua saw his mother’s tears while trying to reach out her arms towards her and the worry in his father’s gentle eyes. Then he fell into his deep thoughts only for a few moments.

“A family is it?”

System Yang warned him, Be careful of the shadows for some reason the shadows were moving in a controlled manner.

Hei Yuhua pulled his phone flashlight and pointed it towards the shadows as he jumped away. The tentacle-like shadows retreated under the light and the controller of the shadows appeared from the darkest side of the hall. Stepping in the darkness is a foreign beauty with long blonde hair, and a voluptuous body shape wearing a full body tight leather suit mostly used by agents. Her sapphire eyes had the same tint as the sea under the sunlight. This is Nightshade.

Nightshade spoke, “No wonder Poppy always hesitates in letting you in the Syndicate completely. You truly have another purpose. You wanted to save your family, didn’t you?”

Hei Yuhua didn’t deny. In the first place, he acts as a double agent for the sake of his husband, Ye Yuyan. They need as much information as possible to completely eliminate this notorious Syndicate.

“That shadow… Is that your newly Awakened ability?” asked Hei Yuhua.

The smile on Nightshade’s face faded and said, “Your sister informed you about our awakening abilities, didn’t she? That means you also knew about our plan of spreading drugs in this city. That’s why you destroyed all the laboratories under the name of the Red Poppy Syndicate.”

“Yes, that’s right,” said Hei Yuhua, not denying anything Nightshade had said.

But Nightshade’s face turned serious and asked an important question.

“Don’t tell me you also know the real identity of our leader?”

At this question, Hei Yuhua gave Nightshade a rare smile. But this angelic smile was enough to send a thousand coldness into her spine.

“Abigail Crowell, former CIA agent who is said to have betrayed her own country but is it really true?” said Hei Yuhua.

“You are seriously dangerous,” said Nightshade as she pulled out her gun intending to confront Hei Yuhua in front of her.

They were both agents but served a different country. Even in his past life, Hei Yuhua doesn’t know what truly runs in the head of this foreign agent. He only learned that she might seem loyal towards Poppy but it is more like gratitude instead of full pledge loyalty.
