Death without Proof?
624: Chapter 624: Stay Calm!
Death without Proof?
Panicked!
Neither Muto Sasa nor her sister ever dreamt that such an accident would happen.
The ticulously planned operation had encountered an exceptionally good opportunity.
Tonight’s gambling event was huge, with an especially large number of VIPs participating, and the betting amounts were terrifyingly unprecedented…
After the match ended, the fight between Kun Qianxi and Fang Guozhi caused extra chaos…
This was clearly a heaven-sent opportunity!
But no one could have anticipated…
That plans cannot keep up with change.
Wu Jie had actually snatched the bodyguard’s gun from Kun Qianxi, allowing the exceptional shooter Tang Xiao to go on a killing spree like the god of death.
And so!
The martial artists ticulously trained by the syndicate were wiped out in a disaster!
This was truly a case of losing the chicken while attempting to steal its eggs!
“What do we do now?
What should I do?”
Muto Sasa was frantic.
She paced back and forth like an ant on a hot pan.
Too terrifying!
With a gun in her hands, Tang Xiao was just like a war god with cheats activated.
Every shot was lethal, cold, and ruthless.
The forr Special Forces Female Soldier King was certainly not to be trifled with!
Muto Sasa wasn’t even in the mood to estimate the aftermath the complete annihilation of the elite martial artists would have on the syndicate.
All she could think about was whether the incident would be exposed and tracked back to them.
anwhile.
Muto Sami was kneeling on the ground, her head buried deep.
Overconfident!
She too had good intentions, suggesting a daring plan.
Kidnapping Tang Xiao and extorting Wu Jie for a ransom of one or two hundred billion Gold Coins would be enough to help the syndicate weather the debt crisis.
But she was more adept at killing than scheming.
Nobody had the gift of foresight, nor could anyone have predicted that Wu Jie would successfully snatch the gun and help Tang Xiao heroically fight back.
At that mont.
Muto Sami’s head was lowered, her jade hands clenched into fists, she gritted her teeth in anger, her heart seething with resentnt.
“Sister!
Let kill them!
Since the kidnapping and extortion didn’t succeed, let’s just finish them off and avenge the martial artists who were sacrificed!!”
“You go?”
Muto Sasa’s face darkened, and she stopped pacing and said sharply:
“Have you gone mad?
No matter whether you manage to kill them after going there, others will suspect us!”
“You cannot go!
Stay right here and don’t go anywhere!
Don’t do anything!”
“And don’t dare make a satellite call to the syndicate headquarters; we can’t let them know about this yet!”
Her voice had hardly faded when the phone on the desk rang.
The ringing was like a death knell!
It made both of them feel a jolt of nerves, a mix of tension and apprehension.
But they couldn’t just not answer it!
Picking up the handset, Muto Sasa heard just a brief sentence before the call was disconnected.
“What happened?
They couldn’t have traced things back to our syndicate so soon, right?”
Muto Sami lifted her head inquiringly.
“No!
The captain notified that there is an imdiate ergency eting for the heads of all departnts!”
Muto Sasa took a deep breath, hastily grabbed the satellite phone from the table to prevent Muto Sami from reporting unauthorized, and left for the eting.
That mont.
The worst-case scenario she had repeatedly rehearsed and considered had occurred.
The operation had failed, and there was a risk of exposure.
What to do?
Muto Sasa took the ergency plans locked in the cabinet, glanced at them twice, and imdiately shredded them into bits using a paper shredder.
Phew!
Taking a long breath, Muto Sasa tried to appear very calm.
In the face of a major incident, one must stay collected!
The operation had failed; what was the point of informing syndicate headquarters?
Ti couldn’t be turned back!
It would more likely cause the chairman and other high-ranked mbers of the syndicate to be very upset or even provoke unnecessary trouble.
It would be better to report after the investigation storm had passed.
After admonishing Muto Sami, Muto Sasa hurried off to the eting.
She knew the purpose of the eting.
So many people with unknown identities had infiltrated the cruise ship.
There were many, many Asians with dark skin and dark eyes, but where did they co from?
Yincheng?
Liuli Continent?
Linliang Continent?
Now that they had been annihilated, they were dead without proof of who they were.
She had clearly written what to do in the worst-case scenario in the ergency plan the night before.
…
The cruise ship’s staff area.
This area was restricted to the cruise ship’s crew and administrators.
Inside the high-level conference room.
The directors responsible for the casino, shopping, and security, among other services, were arriving one by one.
And Fang Guozhi, in charge of goods managent, was discussing the incident involving Kun Qianxi with the captain.
“…There were over a hundred VIP guests present at the ti who can testify for .
I was rely celebrating happily, and he hit !”
The captain said irritably, “But now that he’s had an accident and is being treated in the hospital, can you claim this has nothing to do with you?”
“I admit I hit him, but at most it would just cause so bruises.
He was so excited, so high, he must have been on drugs!”
Fang Guozhi argued loudly.
In fact, he was also perplexed.
He distinctly rembered giving Wu Jie a pack of ‘stamps.’
This new type of product, just a few micrograms could make soone insanely exhilarated on the spot.
If an entire piece was crumpled into a ball and fed into Kun Qianxi’s mouth while he was being pelted by fruits from many people…
Then…
Kun Qianxi would absolutely not survive thirty seconds, he’d start to shake uncontrollably, foam at the mouth, bleed from his nostrils…
and then die a ghastly death.
Last ti there was a VIP who took drugs on board the Cruise Ship Happy World.
After getting high, he lost his senses and swallowed a ‘stamp’, and just like that he t with a swift and tragic end.
But this ti, Kun Qianxi didn’t do so; he was partying hard for two whole hours.
Even after being given sedatives and electrocuted to stunned unconsciousness, and while being prepared to be taken to the hospital, he woke up midway.
Like a ntal patient having an episode, he struggled and scread wildly.
He was so high that his nose bled profusely and his eye sockets were hemorrhaging, yet he couldn’t stop at all.
This wasn’t just taking drugs, it was clear poisoning.
But what was strange was that when the doctor analyzed Kun Qianxi’s nosebleed, there were no signs of poisoning.
This mystery was truly baffling.
That’s why the captain discussed this issue in depth with Fang Guozhi.
At that mont.
Muto Sasa arrived, and the captain imdiately roared:
“What the hell was going on with the wait staff in the betting hall tonight?”
“Do you know who they are?
Why would they attack a VIP?”
“The food and beverage service on the cruise is under your jurisdiction, but you have no clue!”
Faced with a barrage of questions, Muto Sasa did not panic or play dumb.
In fact, she spoke earnestly, with a serious and solemn expression:
“Captain, first off, I must apologize to you!
And to all the shareholders!”
“To cut labor costs, and considering the rich variety of food, I hired quite a few new people!”
“I didn’t strictly supervise and vet them, this was my negligence, and I am willing to take responsibility for it!”
“Regarding who is behind them and why they targeted Tang Xiao, I suggest we investigate whether Tang Xiao and Wu Jie have any enemies!”
…
In just a few sentences, Muto Sasa ‘retreated in order to advance’, perfectly covering up the criminal intent of kidnapping and extortion.
She had considered last night, what if the plan was exposed?
What to do then?
If she had already thought to fra and shift the bla to Tianyuan Mu Family,
then, of course, the backgrounds and personnel files of these martial artists were hastily fabricated, ready in advance.
They had also aligned their stories early on, if the operation failed and they were subjected to severe torture and interrogation, they would all claim that it was Mu En who ordered the action.
Unfortunately for them…
they never got the chance to be interrogated, as they were all rcilessly killed by the cold-hearted Dual Guns Queen, Tang Xiao.
Better for them to be dead; it allowed Muto Sasa to say whatever nonsense she wanted, after all, dead n tell no tales.
The captain was speechless.
He glared heavily at Muto Sasa, raising his hand in anger, his heart full of fury, yet he found himself unable to say anything.
“You…
what can I even say to you?”
“You want to check if they have any enemies?
How the hell am I supposed to do that?”
“And besides, weren’t they all recruited by you?
Hand over all their files to the security departnt, now!”
Muto Sasa imdiately bowed in respect and hurried off to find the security departnt.
The captain sighed and pald his forehead, then suddenly looked up at Fang Guozhi.
“Oh right!
Aren’t you and that couple from the sa hotown?
I’ve heard that you have quite a good relationship with them!”
Fang Guozhi unarguably nodded, “That’s right!
My daughter is friends with them, but the reasons they boarded this ti were, one, for a honeymoon vacation, and two, to gamble for a bit of fun!”
“However, they’ve been lucky, winning nearly ten billion Gold Coins so far.
Their luck in gambling is just too good!”
Fang Guozhi didn’t ntion Kun Qianxi at all, perhaps even if he did, the captain wouldn’t believe him.
How could the world’s top rchant, Kun Qianxi, possibly have a grudge against Wu Jie and his wife?
Who would believe that?
But at this critical juncture, what could he say?
Wouldn’t anything else be off-topic?
“Right now, the most urgent matter is to find out why these waiters targeted Tang Xiao!”
“It doesn’t look like an assassination, with them carrying things like wooden sticks and batons.
Were they trying to fight, or were they looking to kidnap soone?”
“Also, we must conduct a thorough investigation of all personnel imdiately.
Anyone with an unclear identity should be locked up in the Death Ga Hall!”
“I’m only giving you one hour.
In one hour, the casino, restaurants, ga halls, and so on aboard the cruise ship must resu operation!”
…
The captain issued a dire order.
This super yacht operates year-round because at any given ti, there are hundreds or thousands of wealthy n and won entertaining themselves on the yacht.
The daily guaranteed consumption per person is one million Gold Coins!
Just considering the commission from tonight’s super gambling event, they’ve already earned hundreds of millions of Gold Coins.
So, the yacht’s leisure and entertainnt can’t be stopped for too long.
Otherwise, if the VIPs are unhappy, it could easily affect business.
At one command.
The inspection work started swiftly.
In the VIP area, the rooms where the guests rest and stay would naturally not be intruded upon for inspections.
VIPs each have their own butlers and smart wristbands; the butlers’ proof is enough, which is also part of the VIP privileges.
And the most unfortunate ones are those who co to the ship to work and earn money, trading their lives for cash.
Waiters, young models, celebrities, handso young n…
all are subjected to strict checks.
Those with unclear backgrounds were either taken away or killed on the spot and thrown into the sea to feed the sharks.
This endless sea could hold them all, and it was a typical case of death without evidence.
Ti slowly passed.
In less than half an hour, the security departnt had checked the entire cruise ship, and the state of ergency was lifted.
Kun Qianxi’s condition worsened because of an overdose.
Although the dical staff on the cruise ship were definitely highly skilled, and the dical equipnt was top-notch,
they simply had no idea what was really wrong with him, and were completely unable to provide assistance; even after conducting blood dialysis, he was still frantically overexcited.
Besides.
Muto Sasa provided her files, but the information she hastily fabricated last night could hardly withstand scrutiny.
It was soon confird to be fake, and even though she insisted that these people had deceived her with false information and she was also a victim,
what she couldn’t have anticipated was that the twenty-three bodies were not thrown into the sea to feed the sharks imdiately.
Instead, all were taken for autopsies and subjected to the strictest of body examinations.
The damning autopsy reports were enough to uncover the truth.
Muto Sasa, having learned the insider news beforehand, was completely terrified.
Even more unexpectedly, Muto Sami didn’t act on her own initiative.
Yet soone else had tried to kill Wu Jie and Tang Xiao…
