"Jean, please! I beg you!" Mo Lihua continued to shout as she looked around the room for a possible route for her escape. Her blue room does not even have a vent or tiny window that is large enough for her to fit in.

"Damn you Piore! I want to get out!" She hissed under her breath. Feeling helpless, Mo Lihua felt her eyes burned before the tears run out of her eyes.

She badly wants to call Fei Yan, but also afraid to disturb her from tracking down the people who abducted her father. The sad part Yu Han and Yu Qiao was also taken despite them not really supposed to be involved with Doncrelli clan.

Mo Lihua is also concerned about what happened to her father's personal bodyguards or driver. Are they still alive?

"I am sorry..." Mo Lihua whispered sounding defeated. Should she give up before even starting? Even if she does not want to admit it, Piore is right. Those people will not stop even though they got what they want. Despite knowing this, it will be impossible for her to sit back and relax!

Mo Lihua knows that there is something amiss with the situation. Though she is part of the Selection, she is not supposed to be a threat to anyone.

If she is to think like the other's participants, she will not waste her resources to threaten someone who is unlikely to win after just doing enough investigation.

Personally, even though Mo Lihua is already determined to do her best during the Selection, she is most aware that she is too weak for the position. The only thing that she can brag about is her marksmanship during a dangerous situation.

Aside from that, there is really nothing else that can be used to her advantage. Mo Lihua's father will help her, that is for sure but that is still not enough for someone to be afraid of her participating to the extent of kidnapping and killing before the Selection even starts.

Feeling anxious, Mo Lihua called Piore multiple times until the man's phone is already out of reach.

"Jean! Please, I need to speak with Piore!" Mo Lihua suddenly shouted as she pounds the door continuously. Something is going on that she is not aware of and Piore is the only one that can answer her.

"Mo Lihua, I am sorry but Piore is not here yet!" Jean replied from the other side of the door.

Not giving up, Mo Lihua continued to ask, "Then call him for me, please! I need to badly speak with him!"

"Alright," Jean agreed. In all honesty, she understands Mo Lihua's worry and she feels bad for locking Mo Lihua at this time. However, it not a good idea to act rashly especially in this situation.

Jean tried to call Piore, but he is out of reach. "I am sorry, I cannot reach him." She said truthfully while facing the door, considering to release Mo Lihua in case Piore will not arrive on a certain time.

"Damn you Piore!" Mo Lihua cursed the man while considering the possibility that he will not go back. "Jean please, my father's life is at stake. I need to do something!" She continued, her voice sounds so pitiful as she suppresses herself from wailing and begging for Jean to let her go.

"I know. Let's us just wait for Piore to get back. It is dangerous to go their alone. Trus-" Jean stopped suddenly when someone touched her shoulders. "Pior-"

Piore stopped Jean for further talking by placing a finger over his lips. His expression was so serious that the woman does not have a choice but to comply.

He then moved closer to the door, so close that he can hear Mo Lihua's murmur. The room that she is in at the moment is designed specifically for a 'special' guest that needs to stay in District 12 for a certain period of time.

With Mo Lihua staying in the room now confirms that Mo Lihua was really not planning to wait for him and just leave.

"Really stupid." Piore hissed under his breath. Good thing his mother was able to stop her before Mo Lihua fell on the enemy's trap.

He is still contemplating on how to speak with Mo Lihua or more on persuading her to just let him deal with it when he heard her arguing with someone.

"No! Do not do anything without back up! Wait for me!" Mo Lihua stated. "I said no! It is too dangerous if you go there on your own! Oy! Fei Yan! Fei Y- Ah!" She exclaimed in surprise after he suddenly kicked the door hard to open.

"Piore! Let leave now! Fei Yan was able to track the people who abducted my father and she plans to go there now!" Mo Lihua explained in a hurry as she gets out of the room, because of that she was not able to see Piore's murderous expression...
