35: Chapter 35 Crisis Strikes, Ling Shuang Encounters Danger
"King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong? Never heard of him."
Shen Bier tilted her little head, pondering for a moment, then shook her head.
Jiang Chen was not surprised by this.
Although Shen Bier had an esteemed status, it was limited to the Jinling area.
It was impossible for her to know everyone in the world.
There are many circles in the world.
There are some circles that even Shen Bier cannot reach; it was truly difficult for her.
Shen Bier hurriedly said, "Mr. Jiang, would you like me to help you inquire about him?"
"No need."
"Continue to help me contact the military."
Jiang Chen was not in a hurry to know about this King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong.
Since King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong was the mastermind behind the Zhang family's scheme to frame his parents, once he learned of his existence, he would surely come on his own.
He only needed to wait patiently.
The most important thing right now was to contact the military and ask about the cause of his three brothers' deaths.
After leaving the Shen Family, Jiang Chen walked home.
Just as he was about to arrive home, he suddenly saw a sneaky figure beside the villa.
That figure was hiding in the shadows, peeping.
Jiang Chen walked up to the figure without a sound and said coldly, "Who are you?"
The person was startled and suddenly drew a knife to stab.
The movement was crisp and clean, without any hesitation.
Just as the tip of the blade was about to pierce Jiang Chen's chest, he grabbed the person's wrist one step ahead.
He took a closer look.
There was a Red Skull logo printed on his wrist.
Jiang Chen was startled.
Could it be that the Red Skull had discovered that he destroyed Chifeng Group?
"Are you from the Red Skull?"
Jiang Chen exerted force with his hand, and with a crack, he broke the man's wrist.
The man was about to scream, but Jiang Chen instantly grabbed his neck. With a look of terror, the man said, "I am from the Red Skull, please don't kill me, I will confess everything."
It turned out that the people the Red Skull had planted in Chifeng Group were not killed in the explosion.
A portion of them had escaped.
And among these people, someone had investigated the front desk surveillance and discovered Jiang Chen.
Thus, they followed the clues and found this place.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen sighed endlessly.
Fortunately, he had returned in time, otherwise his sister-in-law and grandmother would have been harmed by the Red Skull.
"Where is the Red Skull's lair?"
Jiang Chen decided to go and wipe out the Red Skull tonight to eliminate future trouble.
The man said nervously, "It's at the No. 8 Steel Plant in the western suburbs of Jinling."
"Take me there."
Jiang Chen held the man by the neck and made him lead the way.
The man dared not delay and obediently led Jiang Chen to the car, driving towards the suburbs.
...
Meanwhile.
Ling Shuang quietly sneaked into the No. 8 Steel Plant.
According to the clues she currently possessed, dozens of cases of missing young women in Jinling were all related to Chifeng Group.
Chifeng Group would use the pretext of hiring employees to obtain information about women living alone, and then send that information to an underground organization called the Red Skull.
This Red Skull was the mastermind behind the kidnapping of women living alone.
Taking advantage of the moonlight to dodge the inspection of several people at the entrance, Ling Shuang headed inside the steel plant.
She wanted to call for reinforcements, but discovered that there was no signal in this area.
It was estimated that something like a signal jammer had been installed.
Since she couldn't call for reinforcements, she had to rely on herself.
Ling Shuang was very confident in her skills; dealing with these hooligans was more than enough.
Besides, she was carrying a gun.
There was no chance of failure.
Dressed in a black bodysuit, Ling Shuang crept into a spacious warehouse like a night owl.
She saw over a dozen people gathered in the warehouse.
A middle-aged man sat on the chair at the top.
The middle-aged man had a mole on his face with a long hair growing out of it, which looked quite comical.
Opposite the middle-aged man stood a dozen people, all with their heads bowed, as if they had done something wrong.
"Trash, you are all fucking trash!"
The middle-aged man grabbed a teacup and smashed it to pieces, cursing at these people in front of him:
"I told you to protect the safety of Chifeng Group and Zhou Qifeng, but as a result, Chifeng Group exploded, Zhou Qifeng died, and Wu Zheng also died. Now you can't even find the cause of the explosion. What are you all good for?"
A man in black gathered his courage and whispered, "Hall Master Shi, I have already found a suspect and sent men to investigate. I believe there will be results soon."
"Come here."
Shi Yi's eyes were cold as he crooked his finger at the man in black.
The man in black hurriedly took a few steps forward.
When the man arrived in front of him, Shi Yi suddenly struck, slapping his palm onto the top of the man's head.
The man in black immediately bled from his seven orifices, his expression pained, and finally collapsed to the ground.
Ling Shuang, hiding in the shadows, was shocked to see this scene.
This person was so ruthless that he even killed his own companion; he was completely inhumane.
Shi Yi kicked the man's corpse away and roared at the remaining people, "This is the consequence of not reporting to me immediately. You all better watch carefully; anyone who repeats this will end up just like him."
"Yes, yes, yes!"
The remaining Red Skull members nodded hurriedly.
Shi Yi snorted coldly, then suddenly a sneer curled at the corner of his mouth, and he said towards the place where Ling Shuang was hiding, "To think a little kitten actually found this place, how interesting."
Hearing this, Ling Shuang immediately knew she had been exposed.
Without a moment's hesitation.
Ling Shuang rushed out immediately, raised her gun at the Red Skull members, and shouted, "Police, nobody move..."
Before she could finish speaking, Ling Shuang suddenly felt a pain in her wrist.
A pebble shot out violently, hitting her wrist, and the gun in her hand dropped instantly.
Ling Shuang endured the pain and prepared to pick up the gun.
Unexpectedly, the man named Shi Yi, like a ghost, arrived behind Ling Shuang in the blink of an eye, grabbed her clothes, and then exerted force, throwing Ling Shuang out directly.
"Ancient Martial Artist?"
Ling Shuang's eyes were filled with terror.
She hadn't expected that a mere underground organization would actually have a legendary Ancient Martial Artist.
"Bang!"
Before she could react, her whole body flew out and slammed heavily against the wall.
Ling Shuang's skills were considered very strong among the special police.
But she was, after all, only a special police officer; dealing with ordinary hooligans was easy, but facing a master of the Ancient Martial Artist level, she was powerless.
Ling Shuang hit the wall and fell to the ground, feeling as if all the bones in her body were about to shatter.
Her face was pale to the extreme.
Shi Yi revealed a lecherous smile at the corner of his mouth and walked towards Ling Shuang, "Hehe, I didn't expect you to be such a great beauty. I'm full of rage today, so I'll just use you to vent my anger."
As he spoke, he suddenly reached out to grab Ling Shuang's chest, attempting to tear her clothes.
Although Ling Shuang's strength was not as good as Shi Yi's, her movements were exceptionally agile.
The moment Shi Yi grabbed her, Ling Shuang suddenly flipped over, then leaped up and kicked towards Shi Yi's face.
This kick was crisp and clean, landing solidly.
"Success!"
Ling Shuang immediately showed a look of joy.
Her kick was extremely powerful, capable of snapping a wooden board several centimeters thick.
Even if the opponent was an Ancient Martial Artist, they probably wouldn't be able to handle it.
However, Shi Yi only tilted his face slightly, while a sinister smile curled at the corner of his mouth, and he said slyly, "I advise you not to struggle anymore. Your skills might work against ordinary petty thieves, but in my eyes, you are vulnerable."
While speaking, Shi Yi suddenly raised his hand, grabbed Ling Shuang's calf, and threw her out again.
Ling Shuang's whole body was thrown in front of those Red Skull members.
She felt as if her internal organs were about to shatter, and her right leg was almost broken.
It seemed she was doomed this time.
Shi Yi walked up to Ling Shuang, reached out to undo his belt, and sneered, "It would be a pity to kill such a top-notch babe. I'm a person who hates wasting things the most. All of you, go outside and line up!"
"Thank you, Team Leader Shi!"
The Red Skull members were instantly excited to the extreme and ran out one after another.
Ling Shuang's heart fell completely to the bottom.
She would rather die than let these scums defile her. She raised her hand suddenly, using her fingers to stab towards her own neck.
