Solving Middle Age Crisis by Intelligence System Chapter 472 - 291: Meritorious Service While Bearing Guilt

The next day, Qi Yun still got up very early, but since he was injured, he didn’t follow Chen Wei for training.

After washing up, he applied so dicine to his wounds and then went to the study to receive today’s intelligence reports.

[Current Intelligence Points: 21]

[Today’s Intelligence 1 (Red): Six people from Thailand are living in a rental apartnt across from Golden Collar Villa. They are professional assassins sent by Jas Boot, planning to kidnap you and your family, but haven’t found the right opportunity yet.]

Qi Yun’s eyes narrowed, another assassination attempt?

Luckily, he had been cautious recently, sending Gao Min and three others to protect Zhao Qing and his daughter, and had provided them with weapons.

But who the hell is this Jas Boot?

Qi Yun imdiately picked up his phone to search for information on this guy, and a few minutes later, he put down the phone, his expression was grave, feeling uncomfortable.

The Boot Clan is one of the top ten families in Great Britain, having significant influence in both political and business circles. Their main enterprises are several energy companies, and they control more than half of the mining areas in Wales!

Their overall strength is comparable to the Gwen Clan where De Gaulle belongs.

And this Jas is the current Sect Leader of the Boot Clan.

"Damn it! When did I provoke another giant?"

Qi Yun lit a cigarette, thought for a long while, and connected this Jas to those artifacts.

Because the other party is in the United Kingdom, and the only thing he did there was send Chen Wei and others to retrieve those artifacts.

"In that case... perhaps that warship was also sent by Jas..."

Qi Yun sighed silently, really damn powerful... can even command a warship...

Suddenly having such a powerful enemy made him inexplicably agitated, but after finishing the cigarette, his eyes suddenly lit up, an idea sprang to mind.

"Maybe I can make good use of these people..."

[Today’s Intelligence 2 (Green): Secretary Ji’s mistress contacted a specialist in money laundering, intending to clean 120 million and convert it into clean US dollars for Secretary Ji’s overseas account; this money laundering specialist is currently staying in room 801 of the Nanning Road Sheraton Hotel, and the two parties will et at twelve noon to discuss details.]

million! Secretary Ji really has a big stomach...

[Today’s Intelligence 3 (Red): Fu Wentao, entrusted by the upper echelon, is currently in touch with the United States’ Blackstone Group, aiming to obtain a batch of EUV lithography machines through certain benefits exchange.]

EUV lithography machines...

Qi Yun sighed, this stuff is really hard to get, the export control is extrely strict...

With his capabilities, it seems he can’t help for the mont.

After receiving today’s intelligence, Qi Yun hurriedly left ho after preparing breakfast, as Xiao Hanguang and the others had a flight at nine in the morning; he needed to go to the airport to see them off.

The car was still driven by Chen Wei, but a black Chuanqi M8 followed behind, carrying Eagle, An Zai, Da Pao, Duan Pingyu, while Qi Yun had the remaining personnel protect his daughter and Zhao Qing.

"Have them keep an eye out and observe if anyone’s following, if discovered, don’t alarm the other side imdiately."

Qi Yun reminded, then grabbed his phone to call Liu ng to inquire about the thousand-year-old ginseng, only to hear a notification saying the call could not be connected.

Qi Yun frowned, Liu ng tried to contact him the night before, but at that ti Qi Yun had been taken away and couldn’t be reached, so Liu ng sent a ssage saying he had arrived at the village at the foot of Changbai Mountain and would enter the mountain the next morning.

Based on the tiline, he should have co out of the mountain by now...

...

Over an hour later, in the special passageway at Tianshan International Airport, Qi Yun t Xiao Hanguang and Director Fu, who were about to board the plane.

"Hey, aren’t you supposed to be lying at ho recovering from your injuries, what are you doing here?" Xiao Hanguang glanced at him, asking with a mixture of mockery and humor.

"Haha, it’s such a minor thing, and you two leaders made a special trip for , I just couldn’t let it go in my heart. Even if I were missing a limb, I’d crawl over to see you two off."

Qi Yun shalessly replied, seemingly having no understanding of what sha ant.

Xiao Hanguang was amused by his manner, glancing at the leaders who hadn’t left yet, then patted Qi Yun’s arm, neither too gently nor too firmly.

"Don’t give that; you better behave for the next few days and get that face healed, then get to Beijing the day after tomorrow!"

Director Fu also smiled kindly, adding from the side, "Director Xiao is right, if you show up looking bruised to et that person, it would just cause trouble, hurry up and get healed."

"Yes, yes, I’ll definitely listen to the two leaders and heal quickly!" Qi Yun promptly responded.

This seems like an ordinary conversation, but the local big wigs who ca to see them off caught a hint of sothing unusual.

Many speculated in their hearts, with all the arm patting and friendly smiles, could it be that the young man has a special relationship with these two? No wonder they ca specifically from Beijing to support him...

Xiao Hanguang nodded, "Alright, head back, we’re boarding the plane."

"Alright, goodbye leaders!"

Qi Yun watched as the two walked onto the jet bridge with their assistants, then turned and walked out of the airport. Seeing the odd looks from those big players, he naturally understood the situation.

He had two purposes for coming here; one was to see Xiao Hanguang off, the other was to leverage the situation...

He wanted these people to see his close relationship with Xiao Hanguang so that anyone planning on scheming against him in the future would have to consider whether they could withstand the wrath of these two big shots.

Including the person he t late at night at Hutao Villa, whose gaze towards Qi Yun also underwent so changes.

...

After leaving the airport, Qi Yun glanced at his watch to check the ti and instructed Chen Wei, "Brother Wei, head to the Nanning Road Sheraton Hotel."

Chen Wei nodded and started the car.

Ten minutes into the drive, his earpiece buzzed with a report from Eagle in the rear car.

"A car is tailing us; the driver is very cautious, keeping a distance."

Hearing this, Chen Wei imdiately relayed the situation to Qi Yun.

"Let them follow, but don’t alert them," Qi Yun instructed, then picked up his phone to call Ge Dabao, engaging in a conversation that lasted a solid five or six minutes.

After hanging up, he turned to Chen Wei and said, "Brother Wei, I have a plan..."

Half an hour later, the car pulled into the parking lot of the Sheraton Hotel. Qi Yun opened the car door and got into the business van beside them.

He whispered a few instructions to Eagle, who nodded, got out of the car, and walked briskly into the hotel.

About half an hour later, An Zai turned to report to Qi Yun, "Boss, the person ca out, left through the back door of the hotel."

Qi Yun nodded, "Let’s go, bring him into the car."

"Okay," An Zai replied, then drove the car around to the back of the hotel.

At this mont, a man wearing a baseball cap and a mask was walking towards the street corner.

The man appeared very cautious, constantly scanning left and right as he walked.

The business van moved forward leisurely, and when the masked man reached the front of the car, An Zai suddenly slamd the brakes, and the van screeched to a halt.

The sudden change startled the masked man, and like a frightened bird, he started to run forward.

However, before his leg could land, soone yanked him by the collar from the back door, almost lifting him off the ground.

Panicked, the masked man turned around and saw Eagle standing behind him at so point, looking at him with a faint smile.

At the sa ti, the van’s door swung open, and four strong arms reached out, pulling the masked man into the vehicle without a word.

The van made a turn and returned to the outer parking lot.

Inside the car, once the mask and hat were removed from the masked man, a tanned face was revealed.

Qi Yun stared at him for a mont, then said expressionlessly, "I know what you’re up to, and I know why you’re here."

"Help with sothing, and I’ll let you go, as if we never t."

The masked man’s pupils shrank sharply, his Adam’s apple bobbed violently, and his gaze at Qi Yun was filled with panic, but he didn’t reply.

Qi Yun gently tapped his phone on his knee, a cold smile appearing on his face, "What, you don’t believe ?"

"Washing 120 million... if you get caught, you’d be in prison for life, right?"

At these words, the masked man’s face instantly turned pale.

He subconsciously clenched his pant leg, his Adam’s apple bobbed again, and he finally managed to squeeze out a hoarse sentence, "How... how do you know!?"

"You don’t need to worry about how I know, just tell if you can cooperate," Qi Yun said, checking his watch before adding, "You had an appointnt at twelve, right? You’re running out of ti."

The mont these words were spoken, the masked man looked even more terrified, "You! You’re spying on !! You’re with the governnt!"

Qi Yun remained silent, but Da Pao beside him gave a solid slap across the neck, which made the masked man grimace with pain, leaving his neck red.

"Stop the nonsense, just answer the questions," Da Pao warned sinisterly.

The masked man shrunk his neck, not daring to speak further.

He showed a struggling expression, lowered his head, hesitated for a good four or five minutes before raising his head again, "I... I’ll cooperate..."

Qi Yun withdrew his gaze, speaking slowly, "Do you have any accomplices? You think you can wash 120 million by yourself?"

The masked man swallowed, "Officer... Sir, I’m actually just a middleman, responsible for negotiating with clients. Once the terms are agreed, the money laundering team in Dubai remotely operates and can transfer the funds to the client’s designated account."

Qi Yun nodded slightly, judging that this guy didn’t seem capable of laundering 120 million alone.

"Is the account receiving the money directly told by the client to the people in Dubai?"

"No," the masked man shook his head, explaining, "The people in Dubai, for safety, never have any direct contact with clients. All communication goes through as the middleman."

"And we don’t take any client’s business; the black market conducts a background check first before introducing people to us."

Qi Yun rubbed his chin, pondered for a mont, and then locked eyes with the other party, "I’ll give you an account, and you should have Dubai transfer the money to it when the ti cos."

He then pointed to Eagle beside him and continued, "From now on, he’s your assistant and will stay with you the entire ti."

"Since you guessed our identity, cooperate honestly."

"Rest assured, I’ll let you go once the job is done."

The masked man nodded repeatedly, "Does this count as ritorious service? Will my sentence be reduced?"
