364 Secret Contact
Su Qing didn’t notice Huo Feng’s strange behavior. She glanced at Huo Feng expressionlessly, then turned to look at Huo Qi and continued, “Let’s not talk about this for now. Continue talking about what happened just now. They couldn’t find any information about the killer, so what happened next?”
Huo Feng endured his young master’s cold gaze. He gulped in relief, glad that he had survived again.
However, when he thought about what Huo Qi had just said about “good citizens” who paid taxes according to the law in B City, he couldn’t help but want to laugh crazily. If their young master was really a good citizen, there wouldn’t be any bad people in this world!
At this moment, Wu Yu, who was sitting in B City’s police headquarters, couldn’t help but shiver. For some reason, he recalled his conversation with Huo Qi yesterday, as well as Huo Qi’s stream of calls to him last night and this morning.
He didn’t expect Huo Qi, who had been his old opponent for many years, to have such a firm and gentle side. If it weren’t for Wu Mu and Su Qing, he wouldn’t have bothered with this annoying and shameless fellow!
“We suspect that this group of killers came from overseas! Look at the weapons in their hands and the overall appearance of the corpse. It’s obvious that they’re residents of Namphan, especially from the west or the south. Because of the rainy and high temperatures all year round, it’s inevitable that their features will be slightly different! Although ordinary people can’t tell, they can’t hide it from me!”
Seeing Huo Qi’s certainty, Su Qing was silent for a moment before asking, “How do you know so much about the people in Namphan? Is it because of the Huo family’s business?”
Huo Qi nodded slightly and replied softly, “Not entirely. There are also other reasons.”
As he spoke, he looked up at Su Qing and said with a strange expression, “That’s not important. What’s important is that you have to think about it carefully now. What enemies do you or your family have that can invite assassin organizations overseas?”
Huo Qi looked at Su Qing, who was thinking seriously, with a dark glint in his eyes. Actually, he could provide Su Qing with a direction to think about!
The last time they were at the Demon Sky Building, Su Qing had accepted an assassination mission from the Divine Seal Bureau. Wasn’t the target, Pu Xing, also from Namphan?
At that time, Pu Xing had clearly known Su Qing. Perhaps there was a strange relationship between Pu Xing and his Qingqing to begin with. And that night, Qingqing suddenly lost control, her memory was lost later on, and Second Master Yuan had strangely entrusted him with some things. All of these were all pressing on Huo Qi’s heart!
He guessed that the truth and severity behind that matter were not something the current Qingqing or him could accept, so he chose to firmly suppress the matter that was like a time bomb in his heart.
The assassination yesterday seemed to be inextricably related to Namphan. Perhaps, it was also greatly related to the unknown secret in Qingqing’s heart!
Huo Qi had an inexplicable intuition that it wasn’t a wound that he should touch.
However, what made Huo Qi equally conflicted was the current situation.
The enemy was in the dark, and they were in the open. If they didn’t grab this only clue, this matter would freeze!
Of course, neither of the above results was what Huo Qi wanted.
What he wanted was for his girl to stay by his side carefreely! If a man couldn’t even protect his beloved girl, what kind of man was he?
Huo Qi, who had been observing Su Qing’s expression, slowly made up his mind.
He felt that before revealing these things to Su Qing, he should first find the old masters of the Yuan family and have a good chat about Su Qing!
Su Qing thought for a moment, but she didn’t have any leads. Even with her identity as an agent in the Divine Seal Bureau all these years, it was too difficult to confirm the identity of this enemy. And how could the Su family provoke such an enemy?
Su Qing shook her head and looked up at Huo Qi. “It shouldn’t be an enemy of the Su family, but someone who’s here for me! However, I still don’t have any way to confirm who the other party is. I still have to wait for the news from the bureau to make a judgment. If my identity in the Divine Seal Bureau has really been exposed, this matter might really become a ‘headless’ case!”
