Chapter 938: Chapter 380: Old Acquaintance in a Foreign Land_2 Chapter 938: Chapter 380: Old Acquaintance in a Foreign Land_2 “When going through the border control into Kenya, the bodyguard presented his Chinese passport and bribed the border officer, so the person in charge didn’t undergo a Kenyan border check, nor show a passport to enter Kenya, hence his identity remains unknown. I conducted a search in the Chinese system based on the information on that bodyguard’s passport and found the passport to be genuine, but could not find a matching identity, which is indeed strange.”
Yan Fei thought for a mont, then said, “Show a picture of that bodyguard.”
Under the control of “Dream”, the large screen television in Yan Fei’s ho automatically turned on to serve as “Dream’s” monitor, projecting the collected videos and images. The screen displayed a border crossing video clip, which was rather blurry due to insufficient light since it was recorded at night.
Then a very clear photo appeared on the television, originating from that border crossing video but evidently restored by “Dream”. Although it was extracted from the monitor’s footage, the image quality was very high, allowing Yan Fei to clearly see the person in the picture.
In the fra, the person standing at the back did look like a bodyguard, a sturdy middle-aged man with East Asian features, his body rippled with muscles, looking very strong and alert. The other figure was cloaked in black, with a large hood over his head and a large, partially visible mask concealing his face, making it impossible to discern his looks.
Upon seeing this picture, Yan Fei was sowhat surprised because he actually recognized the sturdy middle-aged man. This man had a brief encounter with Yan Fei before; he was Sun Gang from the Cangzhou Sun Family in China, a guest mber of the China Special Duties Unit.
Yan Fei had t Sun Gang once when the “Drone” had just advanced to level 5, coinciding with the attack on Shanghai Headquarters in Dream Island by a group of mysterious n in black with unknown identities. Yu Xiaozhou imdiately led a team to reinforce upon receiving the distress signal, among them was Sun Gang.
Sun Gang was powerful enough to repel the n in black on his own. At the ti, Sun Gang expressed his dissatisfaction with Yan Fei’s reckless killing of the n in black, but the situation was defused by Yu Xiaozhou’s diation, and both sides took a step back without escalating any conflict. Since that eting, Yan Fei had never seen Sun Gang again, but unexpectedly, on the African continent, he ca across Sun Gang once more.
From “Dream’s” investigation, it was almost certain that Sun Gang and the person he was protecting had contacted the leader of “African Glory,” the High Priest, and then designed a vicious and consecutive conspiracy to kill the “Destroyer”.
What Yan Fei had never imagined was that this matter would involve Sun Gang. Given that Sun Gang was a guest mber of the China Special Duties Unit with a classified identity, it was natural that “Dream” couldn’t find his identity information just from the passport he provided. Then Yan Fei started to suspect whether the person Sun Gang was protecting all along was also from the China Special Duties Unit, and whether their intention to target him was sanctioned by the Unit…
Seeing Sun Gang in the video gave Yan Fei a chilling feeling for a brief mont, but he quickly realized that he had gone down the wrong path. The China Special Duties Unit would definitely not be involved in plotting against him; once they identified a potential threat to Yan Fei, they sent Captain China to Dream Island to safeguard his safety. Additionally, Yu Xiaozhou’s warnings during their conversation reaffird for Yan Fei that the Unit would not act against him.
Furthermore, famous detectives Zhuge Liuyun and Gu Xiaolan also appeared in Kenya, where they injured the violent lightning manipulator, allowing Yan Fei’s incarnation, the “Destroyer,” to leave safely. Although Yan Fei didn’t know the underlying reasons, he believed that the nation must be signaling their support for him through these actions.
Then Yan Fei recalled his few encounters with mbers of the Sun Family, who all seed to take the role of bodyguards. Coupled with so intelligence gathered from the internet, he concluded that the Cangzhou Sun Family was indeed a family of bodyguards who would provide protection services for anyone willing to pay.
Sun Gang had co to Kenya this ti, likely accepting a bodyguard assignnt from the mysterious cloaked figure. Though Sun Gang was a guest officer of the China Special Duties Unit, it did not an his every action represented the China Special Duties Unit. He would also take on tasks issued by families for the sake of a considerable reward.
Yan Fei focused his attention on the blurred customs footage, where the person in the black cloak was extrely cautious. No matter how “Dream” adjusted the angles and brightness or even used the reflections from many items nearby, the true face of the person in the black cloak remained elusive. However, Yan Fei had confird the identity of Sun Gang as the bodyguard, and by following this lead, he would naturally uncover the real identity of the person in the black cloak.
With progress in tracing the real culprit, Yan Fei breathed a sigh of relief. Then he rembered sothing and said, “Dream, also display the image of the Chinese tourist whose whereabouts are unclear; I want to have a look.”
Under the control of “Dream,” the photo of a young Chinese man with a backpack appeared on the television screen. The young man was going through airport customs at the ti, appearing thin and slightly flushed.
Upon seeing the photo, Yan Fei felt that the young Chinese man looked sowhat familiar, but he could not recall where he had encountered him. However, Yan Fei’s mory had been enhanced, and after pondering a few more tis, he finally rembered where he had seen the man.
Years ago, the manufacturing process for Dream Foods’ weight loss cookies was stolen, and after Yan Fei’s investigation, he found that the culprit behind the theft of the weight loss cookie formula was soone from the Oogawa Family in Japan. He then traced the connections and discovered the Oogawa Family’s secret enterprise, Wangde Food Company, in Hang City, and there he uncovered a conspiracy targeting Dream Technology.
Yan Fei was preparing to take covert action against the Oogawa Family, but to avoid suspicion, he pretended to be touring Hang City during the day. It was on a bus that he encountered a strange young man. The young man was flushed, shaking, and dripping with sweat, appearing to be sick, and accidentally took a priority seat on the bus.
Then the young man was beaten by an arrogant elderly man who had just boarded the bus; that man also hit a child trying to help the young man, all the while verbally abusing them. Next, Yan Fei saw the young man unintentionally touch the body of the elderly man, and sothing miraculous happened—the elderly man died inconspicuously.
At the ti, Yan Fei sensed sothing was off with the young man, but he was also very dissatisfied with the older man, so he didn’t intervene, letting the sick young man leave with the child.
Almost three years had passed since that incident, and Yan Fei had nearly forgotten about it. During these three years, the young man had regained his health, and his appearance had changed significantly, with a beard now on his face, so although Yan Fei felt an inkling of recognition at first glance, he did not fully recognize him. Fortunately, Yan Fei’s mory had been enhanced, and after recalling several more tis, he still managed to bring to mind the young man.
Yan Fei had felt that the young man held secrets, potentially deciding the life and death of others. However, since that encounter, Yan Fei had never seen the young man again, but surprisingly, he found him thousands of miles away in Kenya. Compared to a few years ago, the young man was still thin but no longer sick, even appearing sowhat lively.
Yan Fei knew that the young man must hold secrets, and that he wasn’t the only one in this world with amazing encounters; others surely had them too. But as long as they did not trouble him, Yan Fei didn’t like to ddle. What he needed to do now was to find the Chinese person scheming behind the scenes, eliminate this threat completely, and ensure he could sleep peacefully.
