Even though he knew there might be consequences he would have to bear, he found it hard to resist the temptation. You are aware of the news about the butterfly being caught; I now need someone else to act as a go-between. I don’t trust anyone else. Those people are likely to betray me easily. What Mr. Fang said at this moment was the truth. You don’t think of me as your scapegoat, do you? If that’s what you think, then so be it.
In response to this question, Mr. Fang nodded in acknowledgment. If anything happens on Si's side, you will be the first to be investigated by the police, and Lin Yuan probably won’t let you off either. Qing She maintained a calm expression, showing none of the anger one might expect. For people like them, being investigated by the police was a common occurrence; he was merely confirming whether there would be someone backing him up.
What are the conditions? What can I gain from this? You should know that the person who planted the bomb was sent by me; his identity is legitimate even abroad. If you agree to my terms, I can help you leave the country if anything goes wrong. This was an irresistible temptation for someone like him.
During this time, Qing She did not hesitate to make demands of Mr. Fang. Even though he was among the first to obtain the system, that did not justify him working for Mr. Fang. If he agreed this time, it would mean selling himself completely. All his leverage would be in Mr. Fang's hands.
"I agree." After all, things had developed to this point, and he had sent the person out himself. Regardless of how it turned out, Qing She knew he had to take some responsibility for the butterfly incident.
"Steward, take him to handle the paperwork and relevant documents, then take care of the property transfer for the center." He spoke casually, yet it stirred excitement within Qing She. A property in the center was worth several million; just like that, it would be under his name?
He only took a cut from those wanted criminals; in other words, he personally owned no real estate—only a large amount of liquid cash.
The steward led Qing She out to handle the procedures. There were others preparing to move into Qing She’s residence; all they saw was a room filled with life’s essence—nothing more.
One had to admit that Mr. Fang was efficient; everything that could expose Qing She’s identity had been cleaned up thoroughly. Once everyone left, Mr. Fang opened his computer.
The screen remained lit up, and on the other side, a man with a somewhat disheveled appearance slumped in his chair. "Can you handle him?"
Both of them understood who they were referring to—Lin Yuan. It truly caught them off guard.
As long as there are people at sea, I will find a way. At this moment, Mr. Fang was not particularly anxious. He couldn't bring in a large amount of explosives; otherwise, he could have blown up the entire police station. However, Lin Yuan could not easily die.
Earlier, you discovered traces of a third person infiltrating the police station's internal network. Do you know who it is?
At this, the masked man furrowed his brow.
It’s an overseas account, and it has a virtual address. The location of the other party is even harder to trace than that of Lin Yuan.
Do you think it’s possible that we’ve all been made targets?
What do you mean?
A photo appeared on the computer screen, along with relevant information about the person in the picture. It was indeed the man who had just been taken to the police station.
I remember telling you about his background.
A killer you encountered by chance?
How can there be so many coincidences in this world? My latest investment also comes from overseas, including the current involvement of Shangguan Yao from our country. Don’t you think there’s some connection?
His questions made the masked man ponder deeply. The sound of fingers tapping on the keyboard filled the air.
Mr. Fang was somewhat familiar with the accounts on his side; even if he was unclear about the bank transactions, he knew about the visible partners involved. There were several overseas partners in his family business.
This is unusual, very unusual.
Logically speaking, there shouldn’t be so many companies willing to cooperate with a small family like ours, yet the investment amounts are evidently substantial.
The person that the system mentioned earlier may have been monitoring us from the shadows for a long time.
With Mr. Fang’s words, the masked man raised a critical question.
Could he be listening to our conversation right now?
Are you suggesting that I should do something? Resist?
There was silence afterward. Given their current situation, it would be enough for the other party not to add fuel to the fire.
I could sense an air of arrogance; perhaps it was best to first try to resolve the immediate trouble.
Since Zhang Ya was quite far away and Lin Yuan didn’t feel comfortable letting him go alone at night, he brought him back to his home.
The next day was a day off, a rare opportunity to go out and explore, but Lin Yuan chose to forgo it.
He directly asked the system, “Aside from combat power, should there be other values as well?”
“Yes, but I haven’t displayed them yet. Once your combat power reaches a critical value, new metrics will appear.”
Lin Yuan took a moment to assess the situation; his combat power had reached its peak. Was that person’s combat power also high? Ordinary bullets couldn’t even touch him. It seemed that it truly was elevated. Lin Yuan believed he hadn’t reached that level yet, and dodging bullets was something he had only heard about in television dramas.
Ding ding ding! His phone, which had been set aside, suddenly rang. Seeing that the caller ID was an unfamiliar number, Lin Yuan still decided to answer.
“Hello?”
“Is this Lin Yuan?”
“Yes, it is.”
The caller briefly explained the situation, and Lin Yuan was surprised to find that he could be blamed for the issues with the house. The landlord had originally intended to rent it out, but now, seeing the current state of affairs, they were too afraid to do so. They wondered if Lin Yuan had offended someone.
This call was from that very person.
“I’m really sorry. I’ll send someone over this afternoon.”
After hanging up, Lin Yuan called the police station. If the police went over to investigate, surely no one else would dare to show up again, right?
Sigh… Where did these people come from?
Searching through his own house, he found no one there; if anyone were to be found, it should be people, right? The more Lin Yuan thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. But he hadn’t actually offended anyone recently; those he had angered were mostly just people who wanted him dead.
Just as these thoughts swirled in his mind, his phone rang again.
