Chapter 773: Chapter 772: Ergency Return_1 Chapter 773: Chapter 772: Ergency Return_1 Lu Jin took a step back in fear.
“Is the call over?” He asked, his voice eerily cold.
“Not yet…”
Before Lu Jin could finish his words, Huo Beijiang turned and walked towards the office. Although he was not sprinting, he strode so fast that Lu Jin had to jog to catch up. After reaching the office and picking up the phone, he uttered a grunt before Ying Jiuming’s regretful voice ca through.
“Beijiang,” Ying Jiuming’s voice sounded extrely tired, “I’m sorry! I failed to protect your aunt.”
“Where is she? What happened?”
“She’s gone! She’s gone!” Ying Jiuming’s voice was filled with pain and his cries were harsh and uncharacteristic.
It was just a step late. If he could have arrived ten minutes earlier, Yuan Xueshan would not have died. After Beijiang returned to the Imperial City, he had asked him to help take care of Yuan Xueshan whenever he had ti, but he didn’t expect that such an incident would happen in Qi Li Town.
Moreover, it was a murder.
The traces of the cri hadn’t been wiped away yet, it was an obvious murder. Unfortunately, the murderer had worn gloves, and no fingerprints were left in the whole room. The only witnesses were a man and a woman who had appeared in the town, and there were no other clues.
Clearly the work of a seasoned criminal.
Ying Jiuming suppressed his guilt; after all, he was an experienced detective. He had led a team in the provincial capital and seen countless cri scenes, so the death of Yuan Xueshan didn’t make him lose control of his emotions.
What he felt sorry about was his close friend.
“I see!” After a long silence on the phone, Huo Beijiang finally uttered these three words with a voice so low it was hard to distinguish.
“When are you coming back?” His mother’s death was certain to bring him back.
“Now!”
Upon finishing his sentence, Huo Beijiang hung up, his tall and erect body collapsing onto the chair behind him. His handso face was pale and his cold deanor repelled others. His deep eyes sparkled coldly, as if there was a hellish fire burning within.
In less than a year, his grandfather, cousin, and mother had all died. This bout of revenge against the Huo family was indeed ruthless.
Thinking of his impulsive decision to see Nan Fei just now, he felt a chill run down his spine.
He couldn’t put his wife in danger anymore.
“Boss?” Lu Jin cautiously called out.
Lin Yizhong and Ning Di, who had received the news, also rushed over, standing in front of him, their faces full of worry.
Huo Beijiang looked up, his eyes montarily blank. He blinked his thick eyelashes before slowly saying, “Call the Commander, I have to request sothing.”
“Yes!” Lu Jin replied solemnly, quickly dialing the number to Xi Liqun’s house.
At this hour, people with a regular sleep schedule had already gone to bed. Xi Liqun, who was deeply asleep, awoke in rage.
“Who is it?” Cursing inwardly, he was ready to reprimand whoever had disturbed his sleep.
“Report to the Commander, it’s , Huo Beijiang.”
Xi Liqun suppressed his urge to curse. He thought that just last night he had conducted a surprise inspection to the 36th Division, and this bastard was already retaliating. That was quick!
“What’s the matter?”
“There’s a minor issue at ho, I need to take a few days off to go back.”
“What happened? You need a few days for a trip back ho?” Did this boy not realize his ho was just in the Imperial Court?
“I…” Huo Beijiang closed his eyes, only managing to squeeze out a few frigid words. “There’s been an incident back in my hotown.”
