Chapter 857 Where Are You Transporting Them
When Alex Saw that the couple was about to shout, he promptly blurred into an afterimage. In the next second, he reached the bed. Lifting an arm, he struck the woman on the back of her neck.
The woman’s eyes rolled back into her head, and she passed out immediately. With his other hand. Alex. grabbed the man’s neck, stopping him from making a single peep.
That series of actions transpired in the blink of an eye, leaving no time for the couple in the room to alert others to his presence.
“You’re to answer my questions honestly. Don’t attempt calling for help, or you’ll die a tragic death!”
Alex wore an icy look and radiated a baleful aura that likened him to Grim Reaper. The man was already frightened to the core with his neck in a chokehold, so he did not dare disobey.
As Alex was choking him, he could only blink his eyes fervently to indicate his acquiescence.
Seeing that, Alex dropped his hold. In a chilly voice, he demanded, “What are you in charge of doing here?”
The man, who was no longer strangled, did not answer that question at once. Instead, he took in h gulps of air, traumatized by the feeling of suffocating earlier.
A long moment passed before he regained his composure. He did not dare lie in the face of Alex’s question, knowing that the latter would likely kill him if he dared to cry out for help. Therefore, he honestly answered, “I’m in charge of the transportation of goods here.”

Despite harboring a general suspicion about that place, Alex still asked, “What kind of goods, and where are you transporting them?”
“Uh…” Following that question, a conflicted expression showed on the man’s face. For a moment, he was not sure how to respond to that. He wrapped the blankets around his unclothed body.
“I won’t make things difficult for you if you don’t want to answer that. I can capture someone else. It doesn’t matter to me whether you live or die,” Alex murmured placidly.
“No, no, please don’t kill me! I’ll talk! I’ll tell you everything! The goods are the organs of the children who were tricked here, and I mainly transport the harvested organs to Lumenopolis,” the man divulged, not daring to hide anything.
Sure enough, that’s what going on here! Although Alex had long since surmised it, his expression still darkened when he received confirmation of his suspicion.
His heart clenched at the thought of the parents whose children were missing and searching for their sons or daughters endlessly, blissfully unaware that they had fallen prey to such a heinous act ages ago.
“I want an exact location. Where exactly in Lumenopolis?” His voice was as cold as ice. Because of him, the -temperature in the entire room also plummeted drastically.
Hearing that, the man shuddered. A layer of cold sweat drenched his back, and he quaveringly replied. “T- The Wallace residence in Lumenopolis.”
