259 Investigation

Meanwhile, on Jinyue Tower that was 500 meters away from the detention center, a young man in a black uniform quickly disassembled his rifle, packed it into a violin case and removed his goggles.

He lowered a rope from the ventilation shaft of the building and rappelled down to the ground floor of the building amidst dizzying heights.

He then cut the uniform he was wearing from the middle, threw it into an incinerator nearby and then changed into casual clothes.

He was now looking like a teenager who had just gone for music lessons in the area.

He cut through the alley behind the building and passed by a police car. The officers in the police car didn’t pay any attention to him.

At the next junction, he jumped into a normal-looking minivan.

In the minivan sat a patrician man. He was wearing a black sweater and chino pants. He looked like a noble who was going for high tea. The ordinary-looking minivan felt different because of his aura.

“Mission accomplished.”

The young man removed his hoodie, revealing his exquisite, mixed-race face. “Godfather, there were no obstacles in this mission. Everything went a little too smoothly.”

The man tapped his fingers on the armrest in the back seat. “Andy has given up his pawn, Trand. Nothing unexpected.”

“Andy didn’t give up. He was still using his influence to help Trand get a lighter sentence yesterday. I think it’s a mistake on Andy’s part.” The boy answered.

The man chuckled. “Maybe you’re right, Oswald. You’ll be rewarded for eliminating Trand.”

Oswald lowered his head and said, “Thank you, Godfather.”

“Don’t forget the other thing.” The Godfather said.

“I tried to hack into Harvey Academy’s school forum, but their website isn’t as simple as it looks. Information from the past seems to have been specially archived.”

The man stopped his tapping and frowned. “Archived?”

“Someone must have made a copy of the information and then archived it.”

“How did they archive it?” The man asked.

Oswald didn’t reply.

“Good children don’t lie.” The man took a sip of his coffee and looked at Oswald through the rearview mirror.

Oswald had his head lowered, like he was thinking.

“Your main job now is to look after Andy. I will let Minnie take care of the other things.”

Oswald’s eyes shifted at the sound of the girl’s name. “Minnie is with me now. I can do whatever she can.”

“Oswald, do what you are asked to do.” The man’s voice was calm.

Oswald nodded and didn’t say anything more.

“I heard you’ve challenged Qiao Yue?” The Godfather asked.

“Yes, I have.”

Thinking about how Qiao Yue had turned the tables on him, Oswald’s face was indignant. “It’s not that I’m wasn’t capable, Qiao Yue was just too good at reading people. As expected of someone who was personally trained by Godfather.”

There was a hint of jealousy in Oswald’s words.

“Then tell me how Qiao Yue defeated you.”

The man looked at Oswald through the rearview mirror and gave him a smile of understanding.

Meanwhile, Qiao Yue was sleeping soundly at the Qiao residence.

Although the medicine prescribed by Lu Ying was very effective, it made her drowsy. Qiao Yue fell asleep not long after taking the medicine.

Qiao Yue slept all the way until night. When she woke up, she saw the messages and missed calls on her phone.

Xiao Jia had been calling her non-stop when she was sleeping.

She opened their chat and the new messages woke her up.

It was the latest news of the day. Trand had been shot dead during a secret transfer.

This news threw Qiao Yue into confusion.

Even if Trand had been arrested, he was so powerful and he had Andy’s protection. How could he die so easily?

Qiao Yue’s pupils constricted. How did Trand, her sworn enemy for so long, suddenly die of a gunshot?

Did the Godfather send someone to kill him?

Qiao Yue frowned. A suspicious name flashed in her mind. Could this person be the one the Godfather sent to C-Country?

Qiao Yue thought as she called Xiao Jia.
