Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Tina stood up, her aura suddenly turning cold. She changed into her clothes and asked with an icy expression, “Have you called the police?”

“The police have been notified! They are currently gathering information from David,” Mr. Stiller replied.

“I see,” Tina said, ending the call. As she walked out, she dialed Andrew Heisler’s number and said succinctly, “I need all surveillance footage from the route between Ensford Sports Arena and Ensford High School!”

Andrew Heisler, head of the detective squad, had already been on the case since the hijacking of the Ensford High School bus. Surprised by Tina’s call, he quickly responded, “Understood.”

Tina, the young master of the Mountain Veil Order, could not ignore the trouble her students were in. Although the police were already reviewing the surveillance footage, they were not as fast as Tina.

Andrew quickly sent the footage to Tina’s phone within two minutes.

In the living room, Hugo and Jennie looked up as Tina came out, still on the phone. She continued, “Cole Lyon, gather all brothers, meet at Ensford, and block all entrances and exits!”

Receiving Tina’s call, Cole Lyon’s face changed, realizing the gravity of the situation. He quickly responded, “Yes, Serena, I’ll arrange it immediately!”

After a pause, Tina said, “Meet me at Pinkwater Ally.”

“Yes.”

Ending the call, Tina dialed another number, “Jayden, issue the Shadow Lotus Seal, block all city entrances, including major mountain roads, and seal off the routes out of Ensford!”

Jayden was shocked. “Young master, what happened?”

“This is the second time the Shadow Lotus Seal has been issued; the first was against the Reed family, but that only involved a fraction of our forces. This time, it’s everyone we have.”

“My student has been kidnapped,” Tina stated simply, her voice filled with a towering rage.

Jayden, aware of how fiercely protective Tina was of her charges, assured her, “I understand, I’ll arrange it right away.”

As Tina left the house, Hugo and Jennie were stunned, barely processing what they had overheard about blocking roads. Before they could react, Tina was already out the door.

At the entrance of Pinkwater Ally, as soon as Tina arrived, Cole Lyon’s car pulled up. He lived close by, always ready for emergencies.

Tina climbed into the car and quickly turned her phone into a sophisticated mini-computer, a prototype not yet on the market.

She swiftly located the video of the hijacked bus. Masked assailants had boarded the bus, stabbed David without hesitation, and took control of the students. The outdoor surveillance was clear, but the footage inside the bus was blurry.

Tina’s expression darkened further as she accessed the bus’s internal camera. The leader, wearing a golden mask, waved at the camera, “Hi there, friend. I knew you’d look for this. Let’s play a game. If you can rescue these students from me, we’ll call it even for that time you hacked my computer.”

“Oh, and you’re not just saving them. You also need to save your fiance’s sister, Sophia, right? That’s her name!”

Tina immediately called Marie, “Marie, where’s Sophia?”

Sophia has been kidnapped!” Marie cried desperately.

“What happened?” Tina asked, her voice as cold as frost.

“We were about to sleep when someone broke in and took Sophia. They overwhelmed Jared’s guards tasked with our protection,” Marie explained.

“Go to my place; it’s secure. Leave this to me,” Tina instructed, hanging up and focusing on the bus monitor.

The kidnapper, knowing Tina would verify Sophia’s safety, stayed silent until he felt enough time had passed. “You have a choice to make. You can only save one side. I’m curious, who will it be? Your students, or your future sister-in-law? You have half an hour, or I’ll start killing them.”

The monitor went black.

Tina, expressionless, turned off her computer. Even with all her skills, she couldn’t hack an offline camera.

Cole Lyon stopped the car at a club, “Serena, he meant that your students and Sophia are in different locations. We only have half an hour. Who do we save first?”

Tina didn’t respond; her fingers flew over her phone.

She would save them both.

But first, the students of Class 22D.

If push came to shove, and someone had to die, it couldn’t be forty-five students.

Soon, the computer displayed two locations. Tina stepped out of the car as eight formidable individuals approached.

“Serena, just tell me who that bastard is!” James Heart exclaimed, furious.This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

Tina, without wasting time, commanded, “Dexter Brookes, block the south city entrance. Wesley SoSoames, take the north. Tristan Montague, Liam Archer, head to the city gates.” She turned her gaze to Damian Kinley, “You wait here. Someone will come for you. Go to this location.”

She handed the coordinates to Damian, which pinpointed Sophia’s location. Damian, skilled in both medicine and martial arts, was someone Tina could trust.

“Remember, by any means necessary, keep her alive until I get there,” Tina instructed sternly.

The eight nodded, their expressions grave, “Understood!”
