3555 A Devil in a Mask 5

“Huh? You know?”

“Yes. I’m a policeman so I blocked off the roads around town. We found a suspicious car but when we caught up, it was too late. She was in a white Toyota SUV.”

“What’s the license plate number?”

“It’s a car from this province. S1688.”

“What else do you know?”

“There’s a woman in the car called Zeng Rou. Apparently, she’s Secretary Zeng’s daughter?”

“Which Secretary Zeng?” the man in the mask continued questioning.

“Zeng Guoquan, the deputy secretary of the province.”

“Hehe, this is rather intriguing. So you can prove this Miss Zeng knows this pregnant woman.”

“Probably, because otherwise, she wouldn’t be protecting her. She wouldn’t tell us about the pregnant woman no matter how we asked.”

“Good. Thank you for telling me this.”

“You’re welcome,” the head police responded as he thought his life would be spared.

A gunshot sounded the very next second. The head police immediately fell to the ground and his blood spilled over the floor.

“Kill all this garbage,” the man in the mask ordered.

“Sir, if we kill so many people within the Chinese borders, would the government be unhappy?”

“So what if they’re unhappy? They couldn’t even get a weak and helpless pregnant woman. They’re so useless that she was able to run away. We came all the way here for nothing. If it weren’t for the admiral, I would want to kill everyone in this town,” the man in the mask said. He had the belief that human lives were so worthless that he could kill them like ants.

“Please don’t kill us… Please don’t kill us…”

No one was able to escape. However, those captured by the human trafficker as products or hostages remained safe because the man in the mask honestly couldn’t care less for them. As long as he was able to express his anger, everyone else was fine.

“Sir, should we go after them?”

“Go after them? Didn’t you hear that the province’s secretary’s daughter is interfering? With her, the army must have gotten involved. Even if we went, we probably wouldn’t get her. We lost a great opportunity. Let’s go. We’ll have another opportunity.”

“Oh, would Fourth Master Fang do anything since he lost so many men?”

“Don’t give him that chance. Go blow up his hideout along with him.”

“Yes, Sir.”

Just like that, a violent bloodbath happened in what looked like a peaceful town.

The human traffickers, that was Zhu Darong’s family, Erdan, three of Fourth Master Fang’s men, and seven police officers, a total of 14 lives, died in Zhu Darong’s garden.

At the same time, a mansion in Kaoshan Town was bombed into ashes.

Even Fourth Master Fang, who was in the mafia, and his family, couldn’t escape the fate of death.

These deaths alarmed the province’s detectives. They immediately looked for clues of the murder but found nothing.

Huo Mian realized that there might be a problem while they drove back to South Hill Manor: Qin Chu seemed to be mad.

Qin Chu had not said a word in two hours while they were driving along the highway.

All he did was drive. He was expressionless and this made no sense to Huo Mian.

“Honey.”

“Yeah?”

“Do you want water?”

“I’m not thirsty.”

“Then I’ll get you a cracker to eat.”

“I’m not hungry.”

“Then I’ll sing for you. Do you want me to sing ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’ or ‘Mary Had a Little Lamb’?” Huo Mian tried to be cute.

“I don’t need that.”

“Honey, are you mad at me?” Huo Mian looked over and carefully observed Qin Chu’s expressions.

“Deputy Director Huo, you’re royalty. You do whatever you want. You’re smart and brave. As someone who’s pregnant, you were able to fight off human traffickers for two days. How can I be mad? Maybe next time when Hollywood shoots Wonder Women 2, you should be the lead actor. You’re much better than Gal Gadot.”
