Chapter 101

The sudden knock on the door silenced the entire conference room for a few seconds.

The door was pushed open from the outside before the people in the room could respond.

A young figure walked in slowly with an indifferent expression on his handsome face.

Behind the young man was an old man whose eyes were ferocious and glittered with dangerous light.

“Mr. Chu!” Qin Huanyu was overjoyed and bowed toward the young man hurriedly.

The young man was no other than Chu Xun, who rushed there, and the old man was Mo Xinghe.

Chen Hanlong went to continue investigating Liu Xiefei under Chu Xun's order.

As for what Chu Xun was handling now, Mo Xinghe could help him more.

Chu Xun nodded slightly at Qin Huanyu while he glanced around minutely. He could not help but raise the corner of his mouth slightly because he found those who were present all were his acquaintances.

Chu Xun had not expected to meet the 12 Chinese Zodiacs and Qi Huang there.

Mo Xinghe was also a little surprised for he recognized the fat man and the mouse-like man.

Seeing Chu Xun, the fat man was so scared that he felt as if he were choked by chicken bones in the throat, and tears covered his face.

The mouse-like man was shocked to see Chu Xun. His heart skipped a beat as he wondered why Chu Xun was there. He looked back at the weeping fat man and felt weird, thinking if the fat man was scared into crying.

Seeing Chu Xun coming in, everyone couldn't sit still and hurriedly stood up with different expressions on their faces.

Especially Golden Monkey, his teeth trembled with fear. He finally knew who Qin Huanyu went to pick up. He scolded himself for being a big-mouth and wanted to slap himself twice on the face.

His hair stood on end when Chu Xun glanced at him emotionlessly.

“What a coincidence!” Chu Xun said indifferently.

“h.e.l.lo, senior!”

“What a coincidence to meet you here, senior!”

“I felt so lucky that I could meet you again, senior!”

The people present greeted Chu Xun in a flat tone and with a smile, looking even uglier than when they were crying.

If one could remain indifferent even after learning this ruthless man's skills, he had to be a mad man or an idiot.

In Xu Haoliang's and Qin Huanyu's opinion, the members of the 12 Chinese Zodiacs were tough guys, but they did not know that Chu Xun was even tougher than the 12 Chinese Zodiacs.

Xu Haoliang observed Chu Xun curiously. As an experienced man in the official circles, he realized that this young man was no ordinary person judging from others' reactions.

He was the leader of the Provincial Police Department with high status, but in the eyes of these ruthless people who had killing licenses, he was nothing.

However, these ruthless people now addressed such a young man senior and looked as if they were mice who encountered a cat. Judging from their flattering tone, Xu Haoliang could tell this young man was powerful even if he was very stupid.

It was a basic skill for those who were in the official circles to weigh up others' words and closely watch others' expression. Xu Haoliang gave his seat to Chu Xun hurriedly.

“Senior, please sit here!” Azure Dragon took two steps backward and gave his seat to Chu Xun.

He wore a complicated expression on his face. Last night, his master went to Chu Xun and returned with minor injuries on the shoulder and bottom.

If others got to know about this, those senior officials of the country would be on tenterhooks.

Azure Dragon's master became famous fifty years ago. No one knew how powerful he was now. Yet, the old man was injured by Chu Xun, which would cause a stir in the country.

Chu Xun walked to sit on Azure Dragon's seat without hesitation. His eyes narrowed when he stared at Blood Wolf on the screen.

Mo Xinghe stood behind Chu Xun without saying a word!

The fat man and their teammates crinkled their necks. It seemed that apart from Azure Dragon and War Tiger, no one present was a match for Mo Xinghe.

Qin Huanyu quietly wiped off the cold sweat from his forehead. He felt that the air there had been frozen since Chu Xun came.

He could tell that these people present were afraid of Chu Xun, and he felt shocked at the findings. He was curious about Chu Xun's ident.i.ty for he realized that even those who served in state organs felt frightened at him.

“May I ask what do you come for, senior?” Azure Dragon cupped his hands and asked.

Since this man was as powerful as his master, he should show respect to him.

Chu Xun glanced at Qin Huanyu.

Qin Huanyu knew that it was his showtime. He forced himself to calm down before saying, “Miss Tang Rou is Mr. Chu's younger sister.”

Azure Dragon and others were shocked upon hearing the words.

War Tiger signaled Qin Huanyu to stop talking.

What he said was enough.

Everyone was both shocked and happy.

Golden Wolf Mercenary was the unluckiest mercenary team in the world. They had no idea that kidnapping Tang Rou was the stupidest decision they had ever made.

The members of the 12 Chinese Zodiacs and Qi Huang felt sad for Golden Wolf Mercenary

“Please allow me to introduce this team to you, Mr. Chu,” Azure Dragon pointed at Blood Wolf on the screen and said, “He is the head of Golden Wolf Mercenary, named Blood Wolf. This team…”

“No need to introduce them to me. Where are they?” Chu Xun tapped the table with his fingers casually, and his voice was emotionless.

However, the people present felt a chill inexplicably as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.

Azure Dragon checked the time and replied respectfully, “Please wait for a while, senior. we will know in 15 minutes.”

Chu Xun nodded slightly.

The entire conference hall was in silence, and only people's breath sounds could be heard.

Azure Dragon bowed slightly toward Chu Xun before walking out of the door and making a phone call.

Ten minutes later, he walked back and announced loudly, “Attention, we must follow Mr. Chu's lead during this operation.”

War Tiger and others looked at Azure Dragon in amazement.

Chu Xun was also a little confused.

“This is an order,” Azure Dragon reminded them.

“Yes!”

The members of the 12 Chinese Zodiacs answered in chorus.

As a matter of fact, they were very happy to have Chu Xun act as their commander.

Chu Xun didn't ask much about the order. He could guess something more or less.

Such as, he killed the members of the 12 Constellations, yet the country did not pursue the matter.

Besides, the aura of Azure Dragon and the old man who fought him last night was very similar.

It seemed that someone was pus.h.i.+ng the matter in dark.

The hours pa.s.sed so quickly that the time appointed by Golden Wolf Mercenary came.

The scene on the huge screen changed. A dense forest with luxuriant trees appeared on the screen.

Then, the camera turned to focus on a western face, who was no other than Blood Wolf.

“Hi, my friends from Huaxia, I'm Blood Wolf. Nice to see you guys again. The game started, are you ready?”

Because Blood Wolf spoke in English, Chu Xun could not understand his words.

But soon, an oriental face appeared on the screen and translated Blood Wolf's words.

As this was a live broadcast, the audience across the country could watch it.

Even western countries were paying close attention to it, especially the royals of Country F, who were very nervous about it.

Jade Rabbit's ten slim fingers danced on the keyboard, and a few minutes later, she sighed and said, “Dragon, we can talk to them now.”

Azure Dragon handed the microphone to Chu Xun.

“Can you locate where they are?” Chu Xun asked.

Jade Rabbit nodded and said, “Yes, but I need more time.”

“Is five minutes enough?”

“Yes!”

Chu Xun looked at Golden Monkey and said indifferently, “Talk to him, and at least buy us five minutes.”

Golden Monkey showed a bitter expression. Under Chu Xun's gaze, he had no choice but to accept the tough mission.

The fat man felt overjoyed aside and said inwardly, “You finally suffered from shooting off your mouth.”

The conversation began.

“h.e.l.lo, dear Mr. Blood Wolf, I'm from Huaxia Country and calling to negotiate with you. What're your demands?” said Golden Monkey.

On the screen, Blood Wolf did not look surprised when he heard the sudden voice. He looked at the camera and grinned, saying, “I'm glad to talk to you, my dear friend from Huaxia. I'm Blood Wolf…”

“Cut the c.r.a.p. I, of course, know you're Blood Wolf. No one would say you're Blood Dog or Blood Pig…” Golden Monkey's tone suddenly changed.

After realizing what Golden Monkey had said, the fat man and Celestial Dog glared at him.

Other people all stared at the screen nervously for fear that Blood Wolf would turn off the live broadcast in anger.

Fortunately, the translator was from Huaxia. He dared not to translate the latter sentence and only translated the previous sentence.

Blood Wolf felt proud and laughed wildly before replying, “It seems I'm famous in your Country! Haha…”

“Bulls.h.i.+t! I didn't even know your fu*king name an hour ago!” Golden Monkey said disdainfully.

“Mr. Blood Wolf, they said they had heard a lot about you,” the translator said while wiping off the cold sweat on his forehead.

Blood Wolf laughed even more complacently and asked, “What's your name, man?”

“My name is Golden Monkey, you can call me Master Monkey,” Golden Monkey replied angrily.

“Master Monkey is a royal in our country with high status. From this, you can see that Huaxia attached great importance to the negotiation with you, Mr. Blood Wolf.” Cold sweat broke out on the translator's forehead.

The audience across the country all watched the scene.

It was an outrageous event at first, but seeing the translator utter nonsense with a straight face, the audience suddenly found it amusing.

It looked that the translator was near the point of breakdown. He felt helpless about it for his life was threatened.

Though the audience could speak in the live broadcast, they discussed it enthusiastically online through words.

“I must say I respect this translator so much.”

“s.h.i.+t. He is really good at talking nonsense with a straight face.”

“Be quiet. After all, they are at the mercy of the terrorists now and were forced to say so. Let's pray they will be safe.”

“I hope our country could play hardball this time. No more oral blame or arguments. Just wipe out these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds directly…”

The event created a real buzz online. Tens of thousands of people were discussing it keenly, and even a larger number of people started to follow the trend of the matter.

Now, the matter was no longer simply about saving the hostages but also about the att.i.tude of a large country toward it.

Though Chu Xun was reborn into this world, he was a member of the Huaxia nation. Moreover, it was Tang Rou who was kidnapped. Chu Xun narrowed his eyes, hiding the chilling killing intent in them.

Blood Wolf started to utter his requests.

“My dear friend from Huaxia, I only have two requests. First, release Hal, who was caught by you three years ago.”

The faces of Azure Dragon and other people turned dark after they heard the words.

The words also caused an uproar online.

“Wasn't Hal shot to death three years ago?”

“Could it be that this b.a.s.t.a.r.d is still alive? And the execution was just a show?”

“What is our country doing now? I'm so disappointed. A cruel killer like Hal should have been put to death and gone to h.e.l.l. Why do they still keep him alive?”

Three years ago, Hal hijacked a school bus that had 50 students in it. In the end, he exploded the bus and caused the 50 young students to die in the fire.

No one had expected that Hal, who was executed in public three years ago, was still alive.

At this moment, everyone was irritated and started to launch verbal attacks against the country.

Bang!

War Tiger crumbed the porcelain cup in his hand.

His teammates also looked grave and were full of killing intent.

Because Hal knew much valuable intelligence, they put on a show of shooting him to death so as to ease the citizens' anger.

The matter was an s-cla.s.s secret and not many people knew about it.

How did Blood Wolf know about it? From the looks of it, he was sure that Hal was still alive, and was not talking through his hat.

The only explanation was that someone had betrayed the country and leaked the secret to him.

Chu Xun looked calm, but the surrounding air seemed to begin to freeze, and invisible pressure overwhelmed the people present like a tide.

Their expressions changed rapidly, and they had difficulty breathing.

“You should go to h.e.l.l!”

Chu Xun's eyes turned chilling. Three years ago, he was a freshman in college, and when he heard about Hal's crime, he denounced him online just like others.

After Hal was shot to death, people across the country clapped their hands with overjoy. With time going by, people gradually forgot the event and barely talked about it.

That was because no one was willing to keep a violent criminal in their minds.

No one had expected that the country lied to the people and deceived them for so many years.

No wonder all the people across the country were resentful after the secret was revealed by Blood Wolf!
