Chapter 67: Clues
“Chen, Glory World’s people have already done most of our groundwork. There will be a few big mergers and acquisitions to be done. I don’t know why, but Genius Girl has yet to appear.” Guan Yue returned to the main topic.
Ning Chen shifted to a more comfortable position. “As long as things go smoothly, it’s fine. Don’t worry about Genius Girl. She has something on her mind. When it’s time for her to appear, she will naturally appear. They are still inexperienced in the matter of the merger. You have to keep a close eye on it and don’t make any mistakes. If it involves negotiations, you’ll be the one to step in.”
Guan Yue nodded. “The four little ones always ask me in private why the doctor hasn’t appeared yet. I can’t hold it in anymore.”
Ning Chen smiled. “The doctor has gone to perform surgery on someone else. I’ll wait until Genius Girl is willing to show up before I appear. Doesn’t that make things fair for Glory World and Tiankun?”
Guan Yue glanced at him. “Why are you suddenly being so serious? It’s just five children. I think you’re quite considerate of Genius Girl. Chen, don’t you feel conflicted?”
Ning Chen glanced at him. “I don’t think so.”
Guan Yue raised his hand in surrender. “You’re the boss! You’re always right!”
“Keep an eye on Grandpa. Don’t let word get out regarding this. This is a big deal!” Ning Chen warned.
“Understood. Don’t worry. The two old masters are so happy that they don’t want to return!”
Mr. Jiang knocked on the door and entered.
“Young Master, Young Master Yue, the people below have found some clues regarding the incident at Mount Dagu.”
Ning Chen immediately stood up.
Guan Yue hurriedly asked, “Mr. Jiang, what clues?”
Mr. Jiang said calmly, “We’re not certain yet. We need to interrogate them first. Would you two like to take a look?”
There were two floors below Yun Ni that was not known to outsiders.
This was Ning Chen’s true kingdom.
The elevator went straight down to the second basement. After pushing open Ning Chen’s exclusive garage door, it was a different world.
Two men dressed in black were patrolling at the door. When they saw the three people in a hurry, they quickly saluted.
Ning Chen asked in a deep voice, “Where is it?”
One of them answered, “Room 2.”
When they pushed open the door that marked Room 2, the two men inside immediately stood up. “Brother Chen, Brother Yue!”
Ning Chen and Guan Yue nodded and looked at the one-sided glass on the side.
“What’s the situation?” Guan Yue asked as he looked at a thin, tall, and listless man sitting inside.
“This man entered our restricted area and was caught by us. He must have been addicted to drugs and asked us for the goods. He said he could tell us something important that happened on Mount Dagu five years ago. When we saw that the timeline matched, we notified Mr. Jiang.”
Ning Chen nodded. “Let’s begin.”
The man yawned. “Big Brother, please, give me some. I’ll tell you everything. I’ll cooperate well.”
“Don’t worry. As long as you tell us everything you know, we’ll provide you with the goods for the rest of your life.”
Opposite the man, someone took out a bag of white powder from the drawer and waved it in front of the man.
The man’s eyes were wide open and he immediately nodded. “I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you.”
“That was five years ago in Autumn. My cousin and I were looking for ways to make a fortune when someone came to us and told us to kidnap a little girl and bring her to Mount Dagu. We were to rape then kill her. After burying her, we could get 200,000 yuan.”
“F *ck!”Guan Yue could not help but curse.
Ning Chen looked at him and signaled for him to be quiet.
“My brother and I were overjoyed. 200,000 yuan? We have never seen so much money in our entire lives! We agreed without hesitation! Then, based on the clues provided by the employer, they found the little girl very easily. She was a child from a rich family. She was especially good-looking, y’know? She was a little silly.”
Ning Chen’s heart skipped a beat.
Guan Yue had already said to his ear, “What nonsense is this? Tell him to hurry up and cut to the chase!”
However, Ning Chen stopped him and said in a deep voice, “Pour him a glass of water with added ingredients. Make him feel better and tell him slowly.”
The effect of the sedative… made the expression on the man’s face ease up. “That little girl was easily tricked into getting in the car with us. We then brought her to Mount Dagu. She didn’t seem to be frightened and even chatted with us along the way. She looked like she was 15 or 16 years old, but the questions she asked were like those of a kindergarten child. She’s really quite cute, hehe!
“I couldn’t bear to talk to her all the way there as our employer wanted us to rape her before killing her. She even wanted us to take a photo and send it back to her before she could give us the money. But I couldn’t bring myself to do that to such a cute child! Perhaps she could tell that I had a good heart, so she was very close to me. She kept calling me ‘uncle’, which made my heart melt. She told me that her parents had passed away a long time ago. She was an orphan and was very pitiful. It was her fortune to meet such a good uncle like me. She was very persuasive.”
