CHAPTER 309: CHAPTER 295 DECISION

Hua Qingyi was right, Xiao Lin indeed had no reason to go to the Middle East.

"I have information left by Night Eagle in my car, he will send Lang Yan to take over, which is enough to prove the complexity of the Middle East event." This might be a good reason, but Hua Qingyi would not agree.

Staring into his persistent eyes, Xiao Lin sighed helplessly. If possible, he sincerely hoped Hua Qingyi would not get involved in this event, after all, he is the third-generation leader of the Hua family and carries an undeniable responsibility.

"This mutated HTC4 virus event is not merely a simple infection case. There was once a team in Miao Family Village, which left a batch of herbs that could delay the onset of symptoms. It is a chronic poison that resides in the human body. Simultaneously, a mysterious person gave me data related to the virus. I couldn’t find the origin of this address in the Dragon Soul’s database, which makes me have to consider whether this team and the mysterious person are the key to this virus."

"Brother, do you mean there is still a mysterious organization within Huaxia?"

"I’m not sure. There are only two possibilities for data not being present in the Dragon Soul’s database: either it really doesn’t exist, or it’s locked with permissions. The third possibility is that we never realized there was such a mysterious organization beforehand." If even he, a Major General, is unauthorized to ask, the secrets within can be imagined, so he didn’t mention Miao Shaoqing too much.

"Though the Wang Family now refrains from applying obvious pressure on the Xia Family due to the old man’s face, what about the others? You have already made quite a few enemies for Xia Xue."

Hua Qingyi was not wrong, coming out of Dragon Soul, he just wanted to live an ordinary life as a doctor, but it went against his wishes, getting involved in conflicts again and again.

The waters in Yanjing run deep; among the four major families, only the Hua Family and Zhang Family remain on the surface now. The fish that have sunk beneath the waters are not easy to catch, too slippery. As the Poison Dragon Gang has been rooted out one after another, certainly, there are those who hold grudges about it. Even if Hua Qingyi could maintain a surface appearance, no one could control the matters underneath. Thinking of Xia Xue, Xiao Lin frowned.

Involvements always lead to hesitations, this was the old master’s teaching, but in reality, it is impossible for people to remain emotionless and desireless.

The drug was having a strong effect in his body. Xiao Lin didn’t want to resist this fatigue; he was indeed very tired, not physically pain, but an inner anxiety left him feeling weary.

Hua Qingyi turned off the light, Chopin didn’t leave, just leaned against the door. His tightly closed eyes reflected a beautiful arc under the moonlight. Hua Qingyi was surprised that this man was still here; he thought he would leave with that doctor. When he opened the door, he was a bit startled.

"Is the military doctor alright?" Chopin was awakened by the sound of the door opening and rubbed his brow. Perhaps he smoked too much, as his throat started to become hoarse: "This is the car key, I’m handing it over to you, the car is parked on the street outside."

With no redundant words, Chopin walked back to his business car, and the bodyguard was very dutiful, very professional. This was the only thing Hua Qingyi could think of.

The City Committee Building, solemn but not grand! Few had entered and exited originally, but now it was dead silent, making people feel oppressed. Everyone walked with their heads down, even the sound of shoes was burdensome, wishing they could walk on tiptoe, nervously praying to survive this whole day safely and soundly.

One can’t blame these people for working this way. Indeed, the pressure inside the City Committee Building was suffocating.

The City Committee’s second conference room could hold twenty people, featuring a circular elongated table made of marble. In the center, fresh greenery was arranged, adding vitality to this solemn place. Tea was placed on the table, but no one dared to touch it, and if a little thirsty, people hesitated, because the person sitting above didn’t look so good. The saying goes, being in the company of a king is like being with a tiger. People who reached this position weren’t easy to deal with, so they had this bit of endurance.

Hua Muyun glanced at the people seated, drumming his fingers against the table, making a sound! Secretary Luo stood respectfully behind him, silent, making it even more challenging for those below to know what to do. The meeting wasn’t an emergency call, but everyone knew what it was about.

Besides the City Committee leadership, today’s meeting also included Deputy Director of the Municipal Bureau, Lin Zhifang.

"An appalling explosion incident occurred in this city, and you sit still on your seats?" Hua Muyun casually threw out a statement, then looked at Lin Zhifang, "Director Lin, speak about the situation at that time."

Lin Zhifang naturally knew that his status was not enough to attend such a meeting. He wiped his forehead with a handkerchief, calmed his emotions slightly, and said: "This was a premeditated sabotage case. The criminals installed timed bombs in several parts of the building, targeting several young people, among whom the Xia Family’s daughter, Xia Xue, was included. The death toll has reached 7, with 4 seriously injured."

"Is it that Xia Family?" Hua Muyun’s gaze inadvertently swept to the other people present, couldn’t help but coldly snarled, "Thus it is an organized premeditated vicious murder case, recklessly implicating the peace of other innocent citizens, severely damaging the image of the City Committee! Minister Wang, this incident occurred in your region, what do you think about it?"

Wang Zhanting picked up the cup, blew on the floating tea leaves, and then raised his head: "This vicious event must be thoroughly investigated. Regardless of who is behind it, they shall not be spared. We must not allow anyone to tarnish our City Committee. Director Lin, says the suspect is at large. Do you have more direct evidence on hand?"

Wang Zhanting’s words sounded an alarm in Hua Muyun’s mind. The explosion case in Beixiang seemed like someone hired a killer to attempt Xiao Lin’s life, but the fact that the Xia Family’s daughter was also among them isn’t difficult to deny the Wang Family’s involvement. Usually silent in meetings, not only showing a stance of righteousness against kin but also possibly wanting the Wang Family to change dynasties?

"The fugitive suspect is a well-known bounty hunter in the underworld, colloquially known as the Mask. The SWAT team has dispatched people for his capture. There should be news soon." Lin Zhifang’s forehead nearly dripped water, as neither party could he afford to offend: "According to the suspect’s narration, the mastermind behind this case released the task through a secret channel."

"This case will be handed over to the Sharp Sword Special Forces; you police departments shall cooperate, and submit a report to me within a week." Hua Muyun waved his hand, Secretary Luo put a disc into the player, and with a remote, drew the curtains around.

"The mutated HTC4 virus has already caused panic throughout the city; this is the latest data on the virus."

Watching the PPT on the screen, the attendees began whispering debates. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to cast recommendation votes, monthly votes on Qidian (qidian.com), your support, is my greatest motivation.)
