Chapter 1491: Chapter 1491: Undercover Career (29)

"I should scout ahead." Jiang Xue smiled and said. The wires hanging on the trees were rather dangerous, and her vision was quite good, so it was better for her to go up first.

"Alright, I won’t fight you for it then." Ah Li said, stepping aside to let Jiang Xue go first. She was also curious to see how Jiang Xue’s skills measured up.

Jiang Xue didn’t overthink it; she simply believed her good vision would make scouting easier. Thus, she leaped directly towards the big tree.

Watching her movements, both Huo Cong and Ah Li were taken aback. Though they were trained, they couldn’t match Jiang Xue’s casual and graceful manner.

However, Jiang Xue didn’t concern herself with what the people below thought. Once on the tree, she deftly avoided the wires and looked towards the neighborhood. ℯ

Thanks to practicing Spiritual Power, Jiang Xue’s eyesight was excellent even at night. Standing on the tree, she could see clearly within a hundred meters.

She scanned briefly; the neighborhood was quiet, with no special occurrences. Only then did she call down to Ah Li and Huo Cong, "Come up!"

The two followed her lead and climbed up the tree, staying behind Jiang Xue.

Seeing them ready, Jiang Xue jumped down and headed towards Kaled’s residence. The neighborhood was a mix of townhouses and villas, and Kaled’s house was a standalone villa, not in the center of the community but rather towards the north.

Jiang Xue’s team quickly found themselves outside Kaled’s villa. Seeing the light emanating from inside the house, Jiang Xue signaled Ah Li and began climbing.

Seeing Jiang Xue had gone up, Huo Cong followed, while Ah Li waited below for support. Once inside the villa, Jiang Xue moved towards Kaled’s study, the room previously lit.

The study door was closed; Jiang Xue gave it a gentle twist, and the door opened. She quietly approached Kaled and knocked him unconscious with a swift gesture.

Watching Kaled fall to the floor, Jiang Xue took out the Truth Pill and fed it to him, then revived him with silver needles.

Kaled awoke, saw Jiang Xue, and was stunned. As he was about to call out, a handgun pressed against his head.

"Mr. Kaled, you’d best not shout, or this gun won’t hold back."

"Who are you? What do you want?" Kaled asked fearfully. The neighborhood had always had strict security, generally keeping intruders out.

Now, Jiang Xue was inside, gun in hand, evidently up to no good. As Kaled pondered, fear gripped him.

"Mr. Kaled, don’t be afraid. As long as you cooperate, I won’t harm you," Jiang Xue said with a smile. Yet to Kaled, her smile seemed terrifying, like a devil’s smile.

Kaled trembled slightly; Jiang Xue’s eyes flickered before she said, "Mr. Kaled, I have a few questions for you."

"What do you want to ask?"

"Where are your company’s confidential materials kept?" As she spoke, Kaled’s expression changed. He roughly understood Jiang Xue’s intention, so he remained silent.

He wasn’t unwilling to speak; rather, he didn’t dare. Jiang Xue wasn’t bothered by his silence, knowing the Truth Pill hadn’t taken effect yet.

It was Huo Cong, recalling how Jiang Xue had probed Ah Lin that afternoon. She knew Jiang Xue had given Ah Lin the Truth Pill, which made him reveal everything effortlessly.
