Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 1810

Heidey's face turned pale as she looked terrified. "Boss, we mean no harm, we're just looking for our companion. It's okay if you're not willing," she tried to explain with all her might.

As she spoke, she pulled Fade and Govyn towards the side, hoping to leave in peace.

As for the hunchback boss, he didn't try to stop them and allowed them to leave.

A trace of doubt appeared in Fade's eyes at the sight of his reaction. He immediately stopped in his tracks and walked towards the boss. He spoke with a cold voice and said, "What if I demand to search the place?"

As soon as the boss heard this, his expression turned cold and his aura exploded towards Fade. He gave a cold reply and said, "Are you sure you want to fight me?"

Without saying another word, Fade's body shuddered vigorously. A wave of positive energy burst forth and overwhelmed the boss' aura.

The boss' face instantly changed and said, "You're also a martial artist that is above the middle stage of the Black Level?" "Now, I believe I'll be able to conduct my search right!" Fade asked coldly. The boss' face was uncertain and he remained speechless.

Fade didn't wait for his answer but walked towards the locked rooms on the first floor. He kicked open the doors with a loud bang. He went in and realized that the rooms were empty, with no one in sight. With another loud "bang", he kicked open the door of the second room and continued to search.

As soon as he kicked the third room open, the boss couldn't bear it anymore. "He's in the cellar," he blurted.

With that, he walked towards the counter. He leaned down and pulled a lever where an entrance appeared in front of them.

When Fade and the others entered the cellar, they saw Schultz lying unconscious on a pile of hay.

"Schultz!" Gorvyn and Heidey yelled as they rushed towards him.

Fade immediately went over to check on Schultz. He realized that he was just unconscious without any injuries. Therefore, he infused him with some positive energy to wake him up.

As soon as Schultz had been awakened, Fade realized that there were many other items in the cellar.

There were long white robes, long-haired wigs, red paint, and many other items as well.

As soon as they saw these items, Fade and the others instantly remembered the white figures they saw outside the window.

"Did you pretend to be the ghosts outside the window?" Fade asked.

The boss was silent for a moment. He then nodded and admitted, "It's me."

"Why?" Fade frowned and asked.

Gorvyn and Heidey were curious as well.

However, the boss wouldn't speak, nor did he have the intention to answer the question.

As Fade saw his reaction, he frowned, and his aura erupted as if he was going to attack.

The boss felt his terrifying pressure and knew that he was no match for him. He quickly waved his hands and explained, "I mean no harm. I did all of this to prevent you from going to Namuchia." "You don't want us to go to Namuchia Lake?" Heidey asked.

Fade and the others couldn't understand his intentions. They continued to ask, "Why?"

At that moment, the boss had sealed his mouth and was determined not to say anything.

Fade stared into the boss' eyes for more than ten seconds before giving a long sigh. "Go back to rest!" He said.

He had many ways to make the boss speak. However, he saw the determination in his eyes. More importantly, he didn't feel any malice from the boss.

Additionally, he hadn't harmed them in the process. Even Schultz was unscathed although he was unconscious.

Similar happenings that Heidey brought up in the forums only spoke of guests being frightened while none of them were harmed.

However, Fade felt even more confused.

The boss didn't have malice for the guests nor did he want to rob them. However, he wasted so much energy to make up a story about a haunted motel just to prevent them from going to Namuchia. All of this was incomprehensible to him.

He couldn't imagine the answer so he had to put these matters aside and return to his room to rest. As for the real reason, he believed that everything would come to light when they reached Namuchia Lake. After solving the case, it was quiet throughout the rest of the night. They immediately slept as soon as they returned to their rooms.

The group got up and headed downstairs at approximately ten in the morning. The motel's boss was nowhere to be seen. The group couldn't care less and drove away as soon as they were done packing. They finally arrived at Namuchia Lake at noon.

From a distance, one could see clear blue water. It sat on the highlands with its waters being as clear as a mirror with the snow mountains in the distance. It gave one a distant and sacred feeling at first glance However, the feeling greatly diminished when they arrived as Namuchia Lake was crowded with groups of people.

Moreover, they didn't seem like tourists. In fact, they were all young people like Heidey and Gorvyn. It could be seen from their clothing that they were all quite well to do.

"What's this? Have the rich kids agreed to come here on vacation together?" Fade felt uncertain within his heart.

At that moment, Schultz returned and spoke to Gorvyn and Heidey. "I've contacted the person. We can go over now," he said.

As soon as Gorvyn heard this, he became excited and hurried after him.

However, Heidey was slightly hesitant and looked towards Fade. Her lips moved as if she wanted to say something.

In the end, she seemed to have made up her mind. "Fade, come with us!" She said.

When Gorvyn heard this, he was surprised and grabbed her without waiting for Fade's reply. "Heidey, why did you ask him to come with us? Do you know, we're here for the herb..." He whispered.

As soon as he said this, Schultz coughed beside him and Gorvyn immediately silenced himself. He looked suspiciously at Fade and didn't continue.

Heidey frowned and spoke unhappily, "Fade saved us last night and we don't need to hide anything from him. Moreover, he even said that he came looking for herbs. Maybe we're going to the same location." "But..." Gorvyn insisted on speaking.

Schultz even tried to persuade her. "Heidey, think about it carefully. It's not so easy to get in with the quota at this rate. If anything goes wrong, then..."

She paused for a moment and spoke in a firm voice, "I believe in Fade."

She immediately looked at him and said, "Fade, I see that you're young and you're quite good at martial arts. I think we have the same goal and we are both here at Namuchia to seek a spiritual herb!" "Spiritual herb?" As soon as Fade heard about it, a puzzled expression appeared on his face.

"You didn't come for the herb?" Heidey looked at him with surprise as soon as she saw his reaction.
