Agent Larsen grunted angrily and allowed the two people into the converted hangar. The space was cool and clean, but the mess on the desk and walls was too much. There were piles of papers everywhere and boards with seemingly random information.

Kristian looked at Kaito to see if he had nefarious purposes. However, he just looked at everything with a clear and unveiled interest.

His clear eyes irked Kristian even more.

The devil did seem like an angel of light.

"Mr Zhong, what happened exactly?" Kristian asked.

"I believe that Hu Lei was lured by a group of mercenaries to an unguarded location while the security efforts were concentrated in resisting the attack from local low-level mercenaries. She was taken from the bathroom and the surveillance was compromised during the kerfuffle."

"However, my people have found a large hole in the concrete fence around the perimeter. My working theory is that one of the mercenaries was tasked with taking down surveillance. The noise from the attack of the mercenaries masked the wall being blown up." Zhong Feng explained.

"It is strange that the Interpol is here with the notice of such a short period," Kaito commented.

"Not that you need to know, but we have been tracking a certain person of interest in a case for a few weeks in this area," Kristian answered curtly.

"What person?" Zhong Feng asked.

"A woman who has been linked to some disappearances over the years. Her prey is young men. Unfortunately, she works for a big organisation, making it impossible for law enforcement to bring her in and question her." Kristian said.

Zhong Feng and Kaito looked at each other with unveiled surprise. They had the same thought. It could be the person they were looking for.

"What organisation?" Zhong Feng asked.

"The International Health Organisation," Kristian replied. "It is a major medical charity organisation that works with poor nations to provide health care. It has enjoyed a good reputation for many years. This woman seems to be the head of the research division. It seems impossible to touch her."

Zhong Feng felt shell-shocked. He had shared the information about the International Health Organisation with his contact in Interpol, but he could understand that they were still investigating the validity of his claims.

After all, they could not simply declare that a well-respected group was involved in nefarious activities around the world without real evidence.

It seemed that he was not wrong.

"Can I see a photo of this woman?" Kaito asked.

"Why?" Kristian looked at the man with hard eyes.

"Someone is trying to kidnap me, and it might be that woman. If that is the case, I would be the only person here who has met with her face to face lately, if ever."

Kristian weighed the pros and cons.

"Can you describe her?" He asked.

"Will you keep wasting time like this? My sister is in danger, possibly from this madwoman." Kaito's said in a chilly voice.

"You have a sister? That is interesting." The other man smiled with a hidden look in his eyes. "There has been no indication she is interested in women."

Kaito wanted to say that his sister was naturally special, but Zhong Feng disrupted the conversation.

"Show him a photo." His tone was impatient.

Kristian grumbled in his heart, but he remembered the core matter. He took out a photo of a woman in a pantsuit from his pile of files. It was taken along the coastline.

"This is the latest photo we have of her. It was taken two days ago." Kristian had a solemn look on his face.

Kaito looked at the woman for a moment.

"This is the woman. She has some untoward thoughts towards me." His eyes narrowed. "What exactly does she do to the men she takes?"

Kristian looked at Kaito with schadenfreude and took out another photo from his pile.

"This is a young man who was taken from Thailand about three months ago. One week ago, he was found washed up along the coast east of here by some fishermen. It is estimated that he was dead for a week before appearing at the coast." He explained.

"What are all these scars?" Even for a dead person, the young man looked terrible.

Kristian took out another photo of a smiling typical pretty boy. "This was him a few days before he was taken."

Kaito passed the photo of the woman to Zhong Feng after taking another look with cold eyes.

Zhong Feng took the photo and his complexion became pale and sickly immediately.

He knew that face.

He had thought that he would never have to see it again!
