Socially anxious people transmigrate to another world; living in seclusion is too difficult.
Chapter 151 Leading you into an urn
After receiving Colin's instructions, Sigrid and Alban quickly made preparations. The next day, Sigrid boarded a carriage and headed straight for Su Yang's Hermitage after leaving the royal city.
Along the way, Sigrid kept recalling the story she had prepared the night before, afraid that she would let something slip when they met. Even though she admired Su Yang very much and didn't want him to lose his life for it, she had already joined Colin's camp. In order to protect her long-term interests, she could only let Su Yang obediently fall into the trap and sacrifice her own life to benefit their interest group.
The carriage sped along and soon arrived at the gate of the Hidden Farm. Sigrid stepped down and knocked on the gate. Su Yang, who was tending the fields, put down his tools, went to the gate, and opened it. He saw Sigrid standing outside with an anxious expression.
"You are..." Uh, who are you looking for?" Su Yang hesitated, his mind racing as he tried to recall the name of the person in front of him, but he couldn't remember it after searching for a long time. He could only skip the greeting and ask Sigrid what she wanted to do.
"Mr. Su, has Miss Lena been here? I mean, Lit Lena. We've been looking for her in the royal city for days, but we haven't found her anywhere," Sigrid said, sounding a little anxious.
"Miss Lena? What happened to her?" Su Yang was somewhat surprised. He did know Lena, but it was astonishing that someone of noble birth could disappear.
“Miss Lena seems to have gone missing. Duke Litt has mobilized a lot of forces in the capital recently, but they haven’t been able to find her. I was also entrusted by Duke Litt, and remembering that Miss Lena seemed to know you, I came to ask you about her, Mr. Su,” Sigrid explained.
“I see. But I haven’t seen Miss Lena recently either,” Su Yang said.
“Mr. Su, would you please come with me to the royal city to search for Miss Lena? Every extra person helps, and we all want to find Miss Lena as soon as possible so that Lord Litt can rest assured,” Sigrid requested.
“Go to the royal city? This…” Su Yang hesitated, not wanting to participate. Just then, Lin Anlan came out of the house and saw Su Yang and Sigrid talking. She approached and asked curiously, “What’s wrong, Su Yang? What happened?”
Sigrid also remembered Lin Anlan and didn't want her to get involved, but then she thought that she might be able to use Lin Anlan to help Su Yang successfully go to the royal city, so she said, "Miss, it's like this, Miss Lena is Mr. Su's friend, but Miss Lena has recently gone missing, so I came to ask Mr. Su Yang if he has seen her recently."
"Lena is missing? How could this happen? Isn't she the Duke's daughter? How could she disappear in the royal city?" Lin Anlan asked, somewhat surprised and worried.
“Yes, we don’t know the specifics either, so I’ve come to ask you two to come to the royal city with me to help find Miss Lena. Every extra person helps, and I hope that you two will come with me to the royal city for the sake of your friendship with Miss Lena.” Sigrid spoke with a pitiful expression on her face, seemingly making a heartfelt request.
Upon hearing this, Su Yang and Lin Anlan exchanged glances, and then Lin Anlan said, "Su Yang, Lena has helped us a lot. Now that she is missing, we should do our part to find her."
"Well... that's right. She really helped us a lot when we were building the house." After Lin Anlan's persuasion, Su Yang also felt that he should indeed contribute to the search for her.
"That's wonderful. With your help, the search for Miss Lena will surely yield good results soon." Sigrid seized the opportunity, not giving Su Yang and Lin Anlan a chance to object, and took it as their agreement. She then invited the two of them to ride with her in a carriage to the royal city.
Lin Anlan, who volunteered to search for Lena, and Su Yang, who was being carried, had no choice but to lock the farm gate and get into Sigrid's carriage together, heading towards the royal city.
The carriage traveled swiftly and soon arrived at the city gate. There, it was stopped by the city guards, who conducted a thorough search of the three people inside before allowing the carriage to enter. Once inside, Su Yang was somewhat puzzled, but quickly understood; perhaps the disappearance of the Duke's daughter, Miss Lena, was why the city gates were so heavily guarded.
Unbeknownst to Su Yang, after being questioned by the Royal City Garrison, he had already stepped into a trap set for him. The garrison had received orders from the military headquarters, and each soldier carried a portrait of Su Yang. Upon seeing him, they did not immediately arrest him, but instead allowed him to enter the city as ordered. Once inside, the city gates were closed, prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving. The garrison at the other city gates quickly received the message and closed their gates as well, preparing to trap him like a turtle in a jar.
After entering the city, the carriage arrived at the designated location. The three of them got off the carriage, and Sigrid suggested, "Time is of the essence. We haven't searched this area yet. Mr. Su, how about this: this young lady and I will search on the left, and you can search on the right. What do you think?"
Just as Su Yang was about to say something, Sigrid didn't give him a chance to speak. She grabbed Lin Anlan's hand and left. Seeing this, Su Yang could only walk in the direction Sigrid indicated.
After searching all the way, Su Yang still couldn't find any trace of Lena. On the one hand, he was not very good at dealing with strangers, and on the other hand, the royal city was a place he was completely unfamiliar with. He had no clue how to find her. Su Yang even considered giving up on finding Lena. To be honest, Lena didn't seem to be very important to him. He only agreed to search together because he didn't want to owe her anything.
Gradually, Su Yang searched all the main roads and then began to look into the alleys. He searched several alleys but found nothing. When he came to another alley, he was about to ask some strangers when two groups of people appeared in the alley. One group was dressed in military uniforms and marched in step, while the other group was dressed in uniforms similar to the police of the original world and walked leisurely.
Su Yang glanced at it but didn't pay much attention. He was about to ask the passersby again when suddenly a man walked towards him. The man rushed up and exclaimed happily, "Boss Su, you've finally arrived! This is the casino's earnings for the past few days. You haven't been here recently, so it's good to meet you here." As he spoke, the man took out a heavy cloth bag.
Su Yang was puzzled. He didn't recognize the man and was wondering why he called him "boss." Just then, two more men emerged from the opening. Upon seeing Su Yang, they shouted, "You bastard! Give us back our hard-earned money!" They cursed as they rushed towards Su Yang. This chaotic scene made Su Yang feel even more confused.
At this moment, the police-looking man was the first to react, immediately drawing his baton from his waist and approaching. Meanwhile, the soldiers on the other side also noticed the situation and immediately stopped to observe.
Su Yang was surrounded by three people. The man who called him "boss" kept shooing the other two away, shouting, "You accepted the casino's terms willingly, so how dare you come to our boss for money! You bastards, it seems we didn't beat you enough in the casino!"
The other two continued to curse, demanding that Su Yang return their hard-earned money. The police had already approached and surrounded the four of them, chaining their hands. Su Yang, who was already in a confused state, was thus dazed and confused as his hands were chained, allowing the police to take him away.
