No Where To Run: Trapped With My Archenemy

UNEDITED CHAPTER

"You two are working on the same team?" Just like Lin Jian, everyone else had the same surprised expression on their faces when they heard Han Ze Min's declaration.

Even from their childhood they were competing with each other like archenemies as if they want to utilize the every possible chances to outshine the other. 

Though their family was completely against it, somehow the boys kept doing it till now.

"Yes, aunty...after so many years, we are finally working on the same team." Han Ze Min gladly stated while glancing at Wan Yi Jun with a beaming smile glistening on his face. However, Wan Yi Jun on the other hand, doesn't even gave any attention towards his cousin who was literally making it difficult for him to attend any of the family functions.

"Is that possible, Min ah? You two practically have the same qualifications, right? I thought two police officers with same rank won't work together in the same team. " Ming Xing asked as if she was familiar with the ranking positions in the police department since she had a family member who was part of the imperial police force.

"Yeah, but he got a bit seniority and maybe a few more merit points as the captain as the eagle team than a detective like me who works on criminal cases. But its alright, since I'm an accommodating person, so it won't be a problem for us. Don't you think, Yi Jun ah?" Han Ze Min asked without any reluctance, surprising Wan Yi Jun who thought that his cousin might boast himself rather than speaking the truth. It was true that he got more merit points since he was dealing with high end cases that are usually secretive in nature and doesn't get that much public recognition. On other hand, Han Ze Min who had previously worked on several criminal cases that received media attention was pretty much popular in the capital city.

"Hmm, my team is pretty much welcoming to everyone." Wan Yi Jun replied as a faint smile momentarily flashed in handsome face, pretty much showing his joy of hearing something so encouraging from someone he least expected to receive a compliment.

While everyone was glad that they have seen the hints of Han Ze Min and Wan Yi Jun's cold war was coming to an end, Han Lao Dao let out a condescending sneer,

"What's the point of working together if you can't solve something terrible that happened in your own family?" He dragged everyone's attention to something else that everyone overlooked.

"Are you talking about the death threat which uncle received last week, dad?"

"What else? Someone broke into this house despite all the security measures and leaves a warning in your uncle's room. Aren't you two even bothered about it a little bit or, you will only care if someone was attacked or, even worse, murdered?"

"Of course, we care. But I don't think there is anything to study more about the break-in. It is a clear case of personal vengeance."

"What?"

"Vengeance often involves deep anger and a perhaps obsessive desire to get even by inflicting similar harm to the person who initially harmed the person seeking revenge."

"I know what is meant by vengeance...I'm asking you who did it? How did they do it?"

"Don't act so ignorant, dad. No one is a saint in this business. Over these years, HK corporation has raised enough enemies while climbing to the top of the power pyramid, not only in the country but the entire subcontinent. Just look at the craziest one among them, and bingo, you got your guy."

"That's what you think?"

"I think the same. There are hundreds of CCTV cameras are installed in this house, but none of those cameras wasn't able to capture the intruder. That shows that they knew about the CCTVblindspots and as well as the layout of the mansion. So it must be someone closer than you might think."

"Someone closer?"

"I agree to disagree, captain Wan. It may be a bunch of people who have the potential and power to go heads on with HK."

"Do you suspect anyone?"

"Yes. If you want to narrow down the list, I can give you a name. Though HK Long Wei went missing in the international waters, its course started from Daisun port, right?"

"Yes?"

"Have you got into some feud between anyone from Daisun?"

"No. I don't think so."

"Someone so influential and powerful enough to cover for them...someone who can even bribe the government."

"I think we have pretty nice diplomatic ties with the Daisun government as well as over Daisunese partners."

"Really, then what about Terada family?"

"I heard that there are some people left in that family. Don't you think they want to get even to HK group, to avenge their loss?"

"Han Ze Min, what are implying?"

"Aunty Hanami belonged to a Daisonese mafia family, right?

"You two are working on the same team?" Just like Lin Jian, everyone else had the same surprised expression on their faces when they heard Han Ze Min's declaration.
