The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

captured alive! Yes, Master.

Meanwhile, Bryson, now free from immediate danger thanks to the Tiger, had already obtained a new SIM card.

He powered up his phone and sent a message to Hannah.

Upon receiving Brysons message, Hannah deliberated before making her decision.

Conor, hearing her thoughts, quickly interjected, If you go through with this, all our previous efforts might be in vain.

I have to return.

Perhaps Ill catch a glimpse of the mastermind behind all this, Hannah responded, her resolve firm.

Not all our efforts will be wasted-at least this gives us a chance to regroup outside.

Well have to depend on Mr.

Lyons for the rest.

What I can do is to stay inside. Maybe I can see the person behind it.

Conor frowned, concerned.

But if you go back now, Im afraid they might suspect something.

No, they wont, Hannah replied with a reassuring smile.

Ive devised a plan.

Remember, Rabbit and Fox were instructed to capture me? Lets get them to collaborate on this.

Determination ignited in Hannahs eyes as she swiftly composed a message on her phone.

With a confident tap, she sent it.noveldrama

Rabbit, Fox, interested in striking another deal? I have what you desire, and I need a way back into the Twilight Dimness.

Meanwhile, Rabbit and Fox sat frowning over a clutter of documents when their phones buzzed simultaneously, slicing through the silence.

They picked up their phones, their expressions a mix of confusion and intrigue upon reading Hannahs message.

Shes asking to come back after we released her.

What do you suppose shes plotting? The fox masked mans gaze flickered, weighing the potential risks and rewards.

It might be worth the gamble.

After all, she could prove to be a valuable asset in our maneuvers against the master.

Agreed, but lets proceed with caution, Rabbit replied, his voice laced with wariness.

For all we know, she might be setting a trap.

Worry etched his features as Conor cautioned Hannah, This is too dangerous.

What if they harm you? Im more concerned about leaving Bryson to fend for himself, Hannah countered firmly.

If I can infiltrate their ranks, perhaps we can uncover the mastermind behind all this and save ourselves a heap of trouble.

In that instant, a message flashed across Hannahs phone screen from the rabbit masked man. You decide the time and place.

A subtle smile flickered across Hannahs face as she swiftly replied, Twelve oclock at midnight.

The abandoned warehouse area.

Third block.

See you there.

As the clock struck midnight, the silence at the abandoned warehouse thickened, punctuated only by the slow tolling of the bell.

Moonlight streamed through the shattered window glass, casting a gloomy interplay of light and shadows across the mottled ground.

Hannah arrived on time, taking a deep breath as she surveyed her surroundings to ensure all was as it should be before quietly activating a small signal transmitter.

Here you are.

The flickering of the signal light revealed the rabbit masked man and the fox masked man emerging from the shadows.

Their eyes swept the area; their guarded stance towards Hannah remained unchanged.
