Wang Yuxin's shady tactics

Just then, the butler beside the man dropped another bombshell.

“Patriarch, I have some bad news for you.”

Upon hearing this, the man's heart instantly went numb. Again?

“What happened now?”

Seeing his impatient expression, the butler smiled bitterly to himself, fully understanding the man's feelings at the moment, because lately, there had been no good news, only bad news following one after another.

“The people we placed in Singapore have been rooted out. Not just our people, but those from other powers as well, except for the United States.”

The man fell silent upon hearing this, his mind racing.

So, that means only the United States personnel are left over there?

First, the Pyramid spoke up to protect Song Guorong, and immediately afterward, this happened, with only the United States remaining untouched. Does this suggest that the Pyramid was actually established by the United States?

A killer organization that doesn't care about money, rejecting even five billion us dollars—it seems everything points to the United States.

He could understand the reason behind the Singapore incident, but he truly couldn't figure out the Red Group situation. Why would the United States do this, and what was their intention?

“Have the other powers reacted?”

“No, they appear very calm.”

Calm?

It's understandable. If your planted spies are cleaned out, you can't exactly demand an explanation from others.

So, even knowing their people are gone, they can only pretend nothing happened.

More importantly, since this might have been done by the United States, they dare not express dissatisfaction.

“Forget it. If the United States really did it, we truly can't do anything to them. Losing the Dark Web has made many things unclear. How is the intelligence system we're building coming along?”

“Uh, well... it might take another two years to meet expectations. As you know, establishing a global intelligence network is not something that happens overnight, and the obstacles are considerable.”

Upon hearing this, the man sighed and waved his hand at the butler.

Seeing this, the butler slowly turned and left.

After the butler left, the man finally lay down on the sofa, staring at the ceiling. If the Dark Web hadn't been seized, their Apocalypse Society wouldn't be so passive.

And he, Blacklin, wouldn't have such a headache right now. As a member of one of the three great families of the Apocalypse Society, wealth is just a number to him.

What they want is control over the world. Clearly, their power is now being gradually curtailed.

Without an intelligence system, it's like a giant having its eyes gouged out.

Initially, the Apocalypse Society wanted to regain control of the Dark Web, but there was no trace of the current controllers. Their people were not on the same level as those who now commanded the Dark Web.

In the end, they failed, not even knowing who their opponents were. Out of helplessness, the three great families consulted and unanimously decided to rebuild their intelligence system... Night fell!

Modu, Xitan Palace!

Inside the annex building's recreation hall, the entire Wang family was playing card games, except for Wang Shaojun, who was sitting on a nearby sofa watching a live stream.

“Dad, I heard Brother say you're going to Southeast Asia in a couple of days. What are you going there for? Can you take me with you?”

Wang Zixuan asked casually while looking at the cards in his hand.

Wang Yuxin, sitting beside Xiao Anyi, heard this and looked across at Wang Jianguo with a confused expression. “Ah, Dad, you're going to Southeast Asia? Is it for vacation? Wow, going by yourself without taking us.”

“Don't ask too many questions about adult matters. Play your card.”

Seeing this, Wang Zixuan didn't press further. “Three Nines!”

Wang Jianguo chuckled happily. “Hehe, I just happen to have it. Three Kings.”

When it was Xiao Anyi's turn, she looked at her cards with a long face. “Yuxin, our luck is terrible. How can we win with these cards?”

All she held were scattered cards, the largest being only a Two.

“It's fine, with me here, I guarantee we'll win the money for shopping tomorrow. Dad, be smart and play a small card.”

“Heh heh, don't even think about small cards. I don't know how I could possibly lose this hand. No one wants it, right? Then a pair of Queens.”

Seeing this, Wang Yuxin puffed out her cheeks and glared at Wang Jianguo, then focused her attention on Xiao Anyi's cards.

Xiao Anyi was about to say Pass, but Wang Yuxin stopped her. “Wait, we have it.”

“Huh? We... we do?”

Seeing Wang Yuxin's serious expression, Xiao Anyi became unsure. Did she have cards bigger than a pair of Queens?

Was she seeing things?

Unexpectedly, Wang Yuxin directly threw out three cards: a Seven, a Four, and a Five.

This completely baffled Wang Jianguo and Wang Zixuan. Wait, Eldest Miss, what kind of performance is this?!

“Xiao Xin, did you grab the wrong cards? I played a pair of Queens! What is this, 745?”

However, Wang Yuxin said confidently, “I didn't grab the wrong cards, it's 745. Yours is only worth forty thousand, but mine is a BMW 745.”

The other three people stared at her in disbelief, Xiao Anyi included.

“Older Sister, what kind of rule set is this? Aren't we playing Fight the Landlord?”

“Exactly, you're playing dirty.”

However, Wang Yuxin dismissed their comments. “Little brother, you don't want Xiao An Yi to sleep with me tonight, do you?”

As soon as she said this, Wang Zixuan instantly understood. “Cough—cough—I think Older Sister's explanation is very reasonable. Since it makes sense, there's definitely no problem with the rule set. I pass!”

“Okay, passed two-to-one. Dad, it's your turn to play.”

This left Wang Jianguo dumbfounded. Wait, are you two siblings teaming up to cheat me out of money?

“Fine, fine, fine. I won't lose anyway. Four Eights, a bomb!”

“Yuxin, we can't beat this, can we?”

“Hey~ Don't lose heart. When the carriage reaches the mountain, there will surely be a road. Watch this.”

She immediately threw out two more cards. Looking at them, Wang Jianguo was full of question marks.

“What do an Ace and a Ten mean? Come on, explain it to me. If it makes sense, you pass.”

Unexpectedly, Wang Yuxin smiled mysteriously, pointed at the two cards, and read, “See? 110 Police! Let's contact the bomb disposal expert to dismantle your bomb. That's very reasonable, right?”

After speaking, she reached out and took the four Eights.

Wang Jianguo's brain immediately crashed. “What are you doing now?”

“Dad, are you silly? If the bomb is dismantled, it must be taken away. We can't just leave it there.”

“Huh?”

Now Wang Jianguo was completely defeated. Honestly, it seemed logically sound.

“Fine, since your explanation makes sense, a pair of Twos!”

“Stop right there, Dad, you can't play any more cards.”

Hearing this, Wang Jianguo was stunned yet again. “Why~”

Wang Yuxin was just about to explain, but Wang Zixuan quickly raised his hand and said, “I know, I know! I know this one! You were detained by the police for placing a bomb just now.”

Their conversation, without them realizing it, attracted Li Jiawei and the others from the next table.
