He had been abducted?
Nora narrowed her eyes and looked at Justin immediately.
Both of them reacted the same way.
Others might not know that much, but Nora knew this very well—Pete had been learning martial arts from Quinn for years and was already a skilled martial artist with pretty good moves by now.
Otherwise, Justin wouldn't have had the peace of mind to let him go abroad for further studies while hiding his identity.
But why had he been abducted?
Who had abducted him?
Nora immediately turned on her computer and searched for the location where Pete's cell phone signal had been when he sent the text message. When she did, she discovered that the location from where he had sent the text message was the laboratory where he was studying and doing research work.
Nora's expression turned solemn.
After a moment's hesitation, she finally said, "Pete is likely fine."
Justin nodded. "If someone wanted to capture him, they would need at least a dozen people attacking him at the same time, but this would cause too great a commotion. Since there is no sign of Pete putting up resistance, there are two possible scenarios."
"What are they?"
Mia asked anxiously.
Justin had already sent his men to the laboratory to investigate, but they hadn't found any signs of struggle there. This was also the case a few hours ago; all they found were people reporting for work and knocking off work as usual.
He lowered his gaze and replied, "Pete either gave up resistance because there were too many enemies, or he deliberately allowed himself to be captured."
Nora was also of the same opinion.
However, Mia was still very anxious. "Why would he allow himself to be captured on purpose? It's not like he doesn't know better!"
Even though she was terribly anxious, the adults were not surprised by her reaction.
After all, next to Nora and Justin's trio of mutants, every other child seemed a little immature. Besides, Mia had always been timid since she was little.
Nora said, "Think about it carefully. Since he could send you a signal before he was captured, what does this mean?"
Mia paused for a moment and then answered, "It means that Pete didn't completely lose the freedom to move and act."
"Yes."
