Chapter 82: A Clumsy Trap
When Long Yue woke up, the ceiling above her head looked a bit unfamiliar. Looking at her bound limbs and the dizziness-inducing headache coming from the back of her head, she realized that she must have been attacked, seemingly kidnapped.
She struggled a few times, still with strength, but under the constraint of that unknown metal, she found herself unable to move.
Looking around and seeing no one, she slowly closed her eyes, trying hard to recall what had happened.
"I and Ling arrived in Hamilton...found an inn...the next morning, holding brother's and Ye Feng's photos, started asking people around the hotel...at night returned to the hotel...there was a man..." Long Yue slowly sorted out her memories, her dizzy headache making her need several minutes to adjust, "Right, a man broke into our room in the middle of the night, then everything went black, and when I opened my eyes again, I was in this godforsaken place!"
"That is to say, that guy who rushed into our room and kidnapped us?" Long Yue finally figured out what had happened. "But where's Ling'er?"
Long Yue looked around the room, which seemed quiet and empty except for herself. There were several machines beeping along the wall, apparently still in operation.
"Where is this place? What kind of people are you?" Long Yue quickly discovered that there was an expensive-looking camera in each of the four corners of the wall. She shouted loudly at the cameras, knowing that someone must be monitoring her actions. And now that she had woken up, she had to take the initiative first, even if she currently seemed to be at a disadvantage.
"Not bad, you woke up so quickly!" Before long, the only door in the room was opened and a man walked in.
"Was it you who attacked me?" Long Yue recognized the man at a glance, although she didn't remember what the man who had burst into her and Zhuge Ling'er's room looked like before. However, she clearly remembered his figure, gait, and voice...
"Ah, indeed worthy of being from an ancient Eastern noble family! Such a sudden attack, and you can still recognize me now, it's not easy!" The young man smiled and clapped his hands.
"Who are you? Why did you lay hands on me? What have you done to Zhuge Ling'er..." Long Yue struggled with all her might, trying to break free from her restraints.
"Before I answer your question, I'm afraid I have to tell you something. Those things holding down your limbs aren't just the stainless steel plates they appear to be, but are actually a new product that has been electromagnetically reinforced. Even a Golden Elixir stage cultivator wouldn't be able to move an inch here. So, give up struggling and don't waste your energy!" The young man laughed as he pointed at the iron plate on Long Yue's wrist from afar.
"As for your question, I'll answer them one by one. First of all, I'm a noble bloodline! A count, oh!" The young man winked at Long Yue, "If you'd like, you can call me Nikola."
"The second question, grab you and trap you here. Anyone who has watched movies or TV dramas with a bit of common sense would know the answer. The answer is: You've been kidnapped by me! As for the reason for the kidnapping, it's because your brother and Ye Feng took away the woman I love!" Nikolai stepped closer to Long Yue step by step.
"The third question, Miss Zhuge Ling'er is fine, with the same treatment as you, also in a single room, but she hasn't woken up yet." Nikolai walked to Long Yue's side, tilted his head and stared at her for a while, "The figure is not bad, just a bit thin, the butt is not plump enough, the chest is not big enough. And it seems that the temper doesn't look very good......not my type..."
"Who cares!" Long Yue turned her face to one side, not wanting to look at him.
"You've arrived in Hamilton, but you don't know where your brother is hiding, do you? Otherwise, the two of you wouldn't be foolish enough to ask passersby with their photos." Nikolai thought this was hilarious.
"Did you... find us based on this?" Long Yue suddenly realized what mistake she had made, but having always been pampered in the Dragon Manor, she indeed didn't know what the rules of the game were like outside.
"That's correct! However, there is no reward!" Nikolai winked at Long Yue, "That's why you two idiots were caught by me on the first day."
"Your brother and his friends are much smarter, I only knew they got off the plane, but no one saw them leave the airport, I don't know how they did it. But this just proves that those two are old pros, this game is getting interesting!" Nikolai laughed.
"I didn't originally plan to catch you two, I had set a trap and was waiting for them to fall into it. But after waiting for several days, I spent an hour every day wandering around outside on purpose to lure them out. Yesterday, as soon as you two arrived here, I received the news. Anyway, every night wandering around outside is also idle, and they might not come, so I thought, why not catch you two together too? At least I can get two more hostages. Who would have thought that those two guys actually took action and stole my beloved girl from me..." Nikolai put on a sorrowful look.
"So, you're planning to use me and Ling'er as bait to lure out my brother and Ye Feng?" Long Yue suddenly understood their intentions.
"Not entirely correct!" Nikolai shook his head. "I want to exchange you for my beloved girl! I want her to be my bride..."
"How about this? Bite her on the neck and make her a vampire bride?" Long Yue couldn't help but say sarcastically.
"Oh, you're too rude, I don't like you!" Nikolai took a step back and shook his head at Long Yue, "I just gave her a light kiss on the neck, giving her a perfect first kiss. You know? I can feel it, she's a girl with great potential, with a 50% chance of directly breaking through the baron's limit and becoming a noble viscountess!"
"See, I told you so! You just want her to be a vampire bride!" Long Yue coldly stared at Nikola.
"I am of noble blood!" Nikolai emphasized with a deliberately drawn-out tone.
"I want to see Ling'er!" Long Yue did not want to continue arguing with Nikolai about this meaningless topic.
"No problem, we'll bring her by to see you before we let her go!" Nikolai said with a sly smile.
"Let her go?" Long Yue slightly furrowed his brow, "You... want to let her pass on the news of my kidnapping to Ye Feng and the others, and have Ye Feng and the others come rescue me?"
"This is obviously a trap, Brother and Ye Feng are so clever, they must be able to see through it!" Long Yue shook her head with a smile.
"Even if they knew it was a trap, they would still rush in without hesitation! Who made you the Dragon Moon?" Nikolai stretched out his hand and stroked Long Yue's cheek, a strange smile spreading from the corner of his mouth.
