170: Chapter 170: Evil Group?
170: Chapter 170: Evil Group?
Confused!
Wu Jie was startled.
He hadn’t expected ng Sihua to not even spare his father-in-law, Tang Long!
The rcedes sped along the road, lightning-fast, soon arriving at the old man’s rural courtyard.
As soon as she got out of the car, Tang Xiao said to Zhu Cui, who had just taken off her headphones:
“Later I’ll take you to et your grandpa, then you can go to the field to pick so vegetables and bring them back.
Tonight, Tang Xin and the others will co over, and we’ll all see how good your cooking is, okay?”
Zhu Cui happily smiled and said, “Yes!
I’m best at making ho-cooked als!”
Wu Jie smiled faintly and didn’t say much.
Clearly, Tang Xiao didn’t want Zhu Cui to know too much.
A pure little sister just out of the mountains, it was heart-wrenching to let her know the dangers of the world.
By the riverside, in the pavilion.
Tang Xiao led Zhu Cui straight to Tang Pingde.
“Grandpa, Cui is a great hand at farm work back ho.
I thought she could help you out in the vegetable garden!”
Tang Pingde looked at Zhu Cui with kind eyes and said softly:
“Good child, no matter what the past was like, now we are family.
Don’t be reserved here with your grandpa!”
“Mhm, mhm, thank you, sir!”
Zhu Cui quickly went to pour tea and water.
“Oh my, look at how clever you are.
Alright, alright, go to the vegetable garden.
When school is on break, rember to co help out at your grandpa’s place more often.
Xin’er and the others only know how to pick but have no idea how to manage!”
Tang Pingde chuckled and pointed towards the straw shed, “The basket, hoe, and sickle are all in the shed, just take them!”
“Mhm, mhm, then I’m off!”
Zhu Cui quickly left with a light step.
In the pavilion.
Tang Pingde’s smile faded, and he frowned as he sized up Wu Jie.
“You’re not hurt, are you?”
Wu Jie shook his head repeatedly: “It’s nothing serious, just so scrapes.”
“Sit down and talk!”
After Tang Xiao and Wu Jie settled on either side, Tang Long spoke gravely:
“Dongzi and I had just driven not far from the residential area this afternoon when a sedan suddenly smashed into us.”
“I thought we were encountering a drunk or drugged driver at first, but as it turned out, gunn suddenly started shooting from the windows.”
“If it weren’t for Xiao’s stubbornness back then in buying a bulletproof car and Dongzi’s quick reaction to imdiately reverse and speed away, I probably would have been shot dead by now!”
The rcedes bulletproof sedan, worth millions, had saved the lives of two people.
And at this point, all four eyes were on Wu Jie.
“Things got pretty lively on your end, huh!
I heard there was a big explosion?
What exactly happened?” Tang Pingde asked curiously.
Wu Jie murmured, “The situation was the sa as Dad’s encounter, also a sedan with two gunn, except at that ti I…”
He started from getting out of the car and encountering Yu Lianping, and it was mostly the truth.
However, Wu Jie had replaced ‘darts’ with stones because, having just gotten off the plane, where would darts have co from?
Otherwise, there would have been a lot of explaining to do.
Moreover, those two gunn and the four darts had already been burned to ashes by the fire, leaving no evidence behind.
“Why didn’t they perish together with you?” Tang Pingde was imnsely curious.
Tang Long analyzed, “The fact that the explosion was followed by more explosions and combustion indicates that there were definitely a lot of weapons and ammunition inside the car.”
“They all had out-of-town license plates too, it seems they road here to commit the cri.
The driver was responsible for driving and guarding the weapons and ammunition, while the gunn were responsible for the sneak attack, but why did the explosion only happen after you walked so distance away?”
Tang Xiao reminded, “Jie, think carefully, did that middle-aged man have any smart wearable devices on him?”
Wu Jie said, “He wore a black watch.”
“That’s it!”
Tang Xiao sneered, “Shock due to excessive blood loss.
Once the heart stops beating, no pulse is detected, and then the signal is sent to detonate, directly resulting in an on-the-spot explosion, destroying the body and erasing the evidence!”
“If at that ti you’d taken the middle-aged man far enough away from the sedan, it would have also triggered the car to explode.
This is a classic case of ‘the fate of man and vehicle intertwined,’ and using high-tech ans to strictly control the killer and driver is very much like the ‘Evil Group’s way of operating.”
“Damn it!”
Wu Jie cursed angrily, “Killing and arson and they still call themselves so damn ‘Group’?
Are they trying to cross over into the entertainnt industry or what?”
Tang Long cursed, “Who cares what they’re called, in any case, we are the ones they have their sights set on now.
The two killers that ran off will definitely co back for another attempt.”
Tang Pingde’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, “Are you sure the assassins were hired by ng Sihua?”
“Of course!
I even called him at noon, and he personally admitted it!”
Wu Jie said offhandedly.
“What?
He…
he answered your call?” Tang Long was astounded.
Tang Xiao curled her lips and sneered, “He made the call using a spoofing app.
He’s already fooled others several tis with it.
I guess ng Sihua will probably never answer calls from unknown numbers anymore.”
“He still expects to have a ‘later’?” Tang Long cursed loudly, “He’d better not show up in Tianyuan, or I’ll make him die without knowing how it happened!”
Tang Pingde said annoyed, “What are you going to do?
Just because the ng father and son committed cris, does that an you have to commit cris too?
Isn’t there another way?”
Tang Xiao shook her head.
“Using stolen cars with fake plates, disguising their appearances, both the hitn and the vehicles are difficult to trace.
The two who attempted to kill Jie blew up on the spot, obliterating all evidence, and those who killed the father have definitely changed their appearances and vehicles by now.”
“After all, professional killers have strong counter-surveillance awareness.
To locate them is not easy; it’s ti-consuming and labor-intensive, and what we lack the most right now is ti.”
Tang Long added,
“This whole issue started because little Jie exposed the mole within the group, Dou Cheng, who, in seeking a more lenient treatnt, confessed to ng Changxin’s cris of his own accord.
If he could be sentenced to a heavy punishnt, it would benefit the group!”
“So I gave a helping hand behind the scenes, which led to ng Sihua being unable to bail out his father.
Despite pulling many strings, he couldn’t save him, resulting in his hatred towards both of us as well.”
Tang Pingde remarked, “The business world is like a battlefield!
Truly, even a cornered rabbit will bite.”
“He’s no rabbit, he’s a rabid dog!”
Tang Long muttered curses, “ng Changxin has more than one murder case on his hands, even a death sentence would be deserved.
And that brat ng Sihua dares to vent his anger on us, he’s clearly insane!”
Tang Xiao analyzed, “From the standpoint of criminal psychology, when a person is under imnse ntal pressure, it’s easy for them to beco extre, twisting their moral compass and becoming paranoid, even mad.”
“ng Sihua hiring murderers is just the first step in his madness.
If more pressure is applied, he will definitely do sothing even more insane, like offering a hefty sum for a jailbreak.”
Wu Jie laughed, “Then let’s apply the pressure, see just how crazy he can get!”
Tang Xiao gave Wu Jie a side-eye.
“Are you crazy?
You and dad are in danger of losing your lives at any mont.
Instead of thinking about how to catch the killers, you’re talking about putting pressure on ng Sihua?”
Tang Long also expressed his confusion:
“He cares most about his father, ng Changxin.
To pressure him, we need to target ng Changxin!
But from the prosecution to the first trial and even to the final appeal, that’s a long ti away.
Now it’s the holiday season, and ng Changxin has food and shelter in detention, so what can you do?”
“You send his criminal files, and I’ll take care of the rest.” Wu Jie lit a cigarette and smiled ominously, “So people don’t need a beating to be made to live worse than death.”
“What the hell are you planning?” Tang Long suddenly asked loudly.
