Chapter 733: He’s Already Dead!

The ones who end up dead won’t be us!

This was Xiaoji, with confidence, saying something to Chen Xiao.

But these words suddenly set off alarm bells in Chen Xiao’s heart at this moment!

The ones who end up dead won’t be them!

Indeed, when Chen Xiao met with Ye Jun and revealed the existence of Liu Dayou and even Black Cat.

Ye Jun clearly showed a keen interest.

But!

What is Ye Jun’s identity?

He is the prime suspect of the task force!

The very murder weapon!

Logically speaking, this murder weapon is the opponent facing the task force.

However, this case is not conventional!

It also possibly involves foreign forces!

Therefore, according to Chen Xiao’s earlier speculation, if Ye Jun has a close relationship with the murderer, then who is most likely to die next?

Between personal life and death and the survival of the organization.

Chen Xiao doesn’t even need to think about what choice the other side would make!

After a brief horror, Chen Xiao quickly called Liu Dayou.

As soon as it connected, Liu Dayou said:

"Hey, Brother Chen, I’m not there yet!"

"Did you contact Ye Jun while on the way?"

"No, I’m planning to surprise him. If I call him in advance, wouldn’t that give him ample time to prepare?"

"You didn’t call, right? Let me do it then, and have the comrades driving speed up. You must reach Ye Jun at the school as fast as possible!"

Chen Xiao’s tone was unusual.

Liu Dayou also became alert: "What’s wrong, brother? Feels like something big is about to happen!"

"Hard to say, but there’s a strange intuition that if Ye Jun is the killer, then he might not have much time left."

"What? No way, how...?"

"There’s no time to explain now, you call Ye Jun, I’ll reach out to Ye Changhuai."

After explaining, Chen Xiao hung up Liu Dayou’s call and then dialed Ye Changhuai.

Why didn’t he call Ye Jun himself?

Because the intuition grew stronger, strong enough to stop him from hearing that cold beep or the message saying sorry, the number you dialed is turned off!

Ye Changhuai’s line quickly connected.

He seemed unaware of what might happen, his tone was courteous and polite:

"Hello, Advisor Chen, is there something you need?"

"Ye Suo, Xiaojun went to school, right?"

"Yes, he went after lunch and a rest."

"Has he checked in with you after arriving at school?"

"Sigh, that kid’s getting more rebellious as he grows. We used to remind him to call back, but now he never does."

"Understood."

Chen Xiao didn’t say much because his phone already indicated Liu Dayou was calling.

The fact that he could call back so quickly meant only one thing: Ye Jun’s number was unreachable!

Without caring what Ye Changhuai might think, Chen Xiao promptly hung up his call and switched to Liu Dayou’s.

"Brother, it’s turned off, can’t get through!"

"Have you contacted his teachers?"

"Yes, but his teacher said Ye Jun took leave in the evening, claiming he was uncomfortable. I didn’t dare ask more, just immediately notified you."

On hearing this, Chen Xiao couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

It seems everything is indeed heading towards an unforeseen situation.

"Continue with the original plan, get to the school as fast as you can, I’m about to leave as well."

With that said, Chen Xiao went straight to find Qin Fei and Sun Zhou.

Explaining the situation to them, both Qin Fei and Sun Zhou felt a chill and wasted no time in following Chen Xiao towards Zhushan City.

Just after their car left the station, the voice of Sun Zhou from the back was filled with shock:

"Chen Xiao, try to contact Old Cao, I’ve been calling him but he hasn’t picked up!"

Seated in the front passenger seat, Chen Xiao turned back: "Captain Cao isn’t reachable either?"

"Yes, I thought of contacting him when we set off, but from the station until now, he hasn’t answered."

Chen Xiao frowned, grabbed his phone, and dialed Cao Xiuyuan.

As expected, the call went through, but no one answered.

Chen Xiao didn’t attempt a second call.

Staring at the darkening sky outside the window, the bad feeling in his heart intensified.

He recalled the fortune Liu Dayou had told Cao Xiuyuan.

Two extremes, implying either life or death!

"Captain Sun, contact your direct superior and ask if Cao has reached out since we haven’t received any notification from above yet."

Sun Zhou nodded, preparing to reach out to their superiors.

But the driver, Qin Fei, suddenly spoke:

"Hold off on contacting for now, it seems Captain Cao discovered something on the way and didn’t proceed to meet the superiors."

Both Chen Xiao and Sun Zhou looked at Qin Fei.

Though driving, Qin Fei’s face displayed more concern than both Chen Xiao and Sun Zhou.

"Though I haven’t interacted extensively with Brother Xiuyuan, I know of him. If he’s unreachable, it’s very likely he’s acting on something, and perhaps he realized or detected something before meeting the superiors, leading to a change in plan."

The car grew silent.

It was only when Qin Fei sped towards Zhushan City again that Chen Xiao refrained from mentioning the fortune Liu Dayou had told Cao Xiuyuan.

In Chen Xiao’s interactions with Cao Xiuyuan, the latter did not appear to be reckless or glory-seeking.

If Cao Xiuyuan is mature and rational enough, then he should know what actions to take.

Chen Xiao no longer worried about what risks Cao Xiuyuan might face.

A life that was equally important stood before him.

Qin Fei’s driving speed intensified.

Chen Xiao and Sun Zhou remained silent during the trip, seemingly readying themselves for the circumstances that awaited them in Zhushan City.

Eventually, Qin Fei exited the highway.

In another ten minutes, they’d reach Ye Jun’s school.

However, just off the highway, Liu Dayou’s call came through.

Seeing his call relieved Chen Xiao’s worries.

But the relief didn’t suggest a good outcome; it meant what they feared had already happened!

Chen Xiao answered: "Hey, did you find him?"

Liu Dayou’s voice was somber, unlike his usual flamboyance.

"Found him, but... he’s already... dead."

Hearing the word "dead," even Chen Xiao couldn’t help but sigh deeply.

The confrontation he envisioned with Ye Jun didn’t occur.

Before an organization, personal life and death might seem insignificant; killing was just that simple!
