Chapter 156 Warning

When Chen Chuan heard the name of the Bloodstain Gang, he glanced into the living room and asked, "What's going on?"

Ren Shu said, "It's about that previous commission regarding the Skull-Splitting Demon. We sent a letter before Expert Chen returned, and we said you were away. Now we heard you're back, so we've sent someone again." He added, "But this time we're not coming in the name of a gang, but in the name of the Dodo Company."

Chen Chuan knew that the Dodo Company was just one of the many companies run by the Blood Scar Gang. It was just a cover, but it looked better on the surface with this cover.

He thought for a moment and said, "I don't have time right now. The last letter wasn't very clear. Ask them to send the details over. I'll take a look at them and then I'll say anything."

Ren Shu said, "Okay, I'll reply to them like this."

After he hung up, he went back to talk to his aunt's family. However, just after lunch, Ren Shu called and said, "Expert Chen, the Bloodstain Gang has sent the stuff over, and this time they want to talk to you in person..."

So fast?

Chen Chuan thought for a moment. It seemed the Blood Scar Gang was indeed very anxious, but he didn't want to spend his day off running around for this matter. He said, "Just say I have something to do and we'll make an appointment tonight." Ren Shu said, "Okay, I'll have Xiao Wei pick you up then."

Chen Chuan stayed at his aunt's house that afternoon. After dinner, he called to confirm, washed up, changed his clothes, and then went out.

This time, in addition to bringing the Xuejun Knife, he also had a handbag in his hand, which contained a box of Taiana spiders. Because this thing was not big and was quite dangerous, he did not leave it in school, but carried it with him.

When he arrived at the back of the alley, driver Xiao Wei had already driven the car to the door. He got in directly. The car started smoothly and drove all the way to the company.

Ren Shu had been waiting for him, and when he saw him coming, he came out to greet him. After greeting him, he said, "Expert Chen, he's still waiting here. He's been sitting here all afternoon."

Chen Chuanshuo said: "He is very patient."

Ren Shu said, "We are a legitimate company. Even if it's the Bloodstain Gang, since they're negotiating with us as a company, they have to abide by the rules between companies."

When he said this, unlike Chen Chuan's cautious tone, he was very confident instead, because this was undoubtedly his forte.

He looked at Chen Chuan again and asked, "Does Expert Chen need to see him now?"

Chen Chuan said: "Now."

Ren Shu said okay, and he gestured, and a staff member went to invite someone, while he took Chen Chuan directly to the reception hall of the third building.

He said: "We are currently installing an elevator so that Expert Chen doesn't have to run up and down every time."

Chen Chuan nodded. He knew what Ren Shu meant. He had been trying to give him better conditions. In return, he also gave the company more rewards. He said, "The company's environment is good now."

When they arrived at the reception room, the two of them sat for a while before hearing someone say from outside, "Mr. Li, please come this way."

A moment later, a tall and thin man walked out. He didn't look like a gang member at all, and his clothes were no different from those of other senior employees of the company.

After entering the door, he introduced himself to the two people, saying that he was Li Hui, a senior manager of Dodo Company, and then greeted them warmly and politely.

After exchanging some compliments and polite words, both parties sat down, and Manager Li tentatively asked, "I wonder if Expert Chen would be available to listen to my explanation of the situation?"

Chen Chuan said, "That's why I asked Manager Li to come here."

"well."

Manager Li took the briefcase in his hand and placed it on the table. He took out a stack of information from it and handed it to Ren Shu and Chen Chuan. He said, "This is the information our company sent at the request of Expert Chen."

Chen Chuan took it and was looking through it when Manager Li said, "Please allow me to briefly explain that three respected gentlemen in the Blood Scar Gang have died. This is truly regrettable."

Chen Chuan remained silent as he flipped through the information. Previously, he had only seen text descriptions, but now he saw very vivid photos.

When these three people died, their skulls were split apart and separated so dramatically that one could see at a glance that everything inside was gone. This reminded him of the two halves of watermelon that he had eaten with a spoon in the afternoon.

Just by looking at the photo, he seemed to be able to feel that the party eating was very careful to peel off the skin and flesh, and separate them carefully. Not only did it eat the main brain tissue, but it also licked the internal residue clean, leaving no trace. There was not even a trace of blood around, only an empty skull.

Ren Shu, who was standing next to him, couldn't stand it after just a few glances at the photos. He felt nauseous and could only cover his mouth with a handkerchief.

Manager Li said, "We've investigated repeatedly and even had people come to look, but we haven't found any clues. They were just sleeping in their own beds when their brains were destroyed. So we can basically confirm that this was really the work of the Skull-Splitting Demon."

Chen Chuan looked at the detailed investigation records below. All the deceased died suddenly. For example, one of them was talking to his wife in bed when he suddenly stopped talking.

The lady was very dissatisfied. When she turned around, she found that her head was cracked and her skull was empty. She was so scared that she fainted on the spot. After waking up, she experienced it again and had some mental problems afterwards.

There is another case. Maybe his family didn't care much about him. In the morning, his lover got up, dressed carefully, said goodbye, and went out. He had no idea that the person on the bed had his head eaten. It was not until he saw the person still lying there in the evening that he realized something was wrong. By then, the person had been cold for a whole day.

Only the last person was found in the gang office, and there were no signs of intrusion by outsiders at the scene.

He then said to Manager Li, "The Skull-Splitting Demon has been appearing in Yangzhi City for a long time, but it has never been dealt with. So I need to study it first before deciding whether to accept this commission."

"Okay, okay." Manager Li was very good at reading people's expressions. His only hope now was with Chen Chuan. The fact that he was willing to check was already good enough; he didn't dare to be rude. He stood up and said, "Then I won't bother Expert Chen. If Expert Chen finds anything, please let us know."

He took out a name card and placed it on the table. After greeting the two of them, he left tactfully.

After Ren Shu sent the man away, Chen Chuan asked, "Mr. Ren, has the company reported similar cases from other places?"

Ren Shu thought for a moment and said, "We recently received a batch of information from the Government Affairs Office, and we haven't seen any similar reports. We don't know if there are any that haven't been reported. However, I have had someone compile all the past reports on the Skull-Splitting Demon. Does Expert Chen want to see them now?"

Chen Chuanshuo said, "Okay, bring them all here."

When the employees brought the files over, he removed some of them that were obviously used to confuse people and some that were too old, leaving only the more valuable ones.

After looking at it, he found that these situations were exactly the same as what he had seen in the photos before, but this could not be really confirmed unless he went to the scene to take a look. But seeing that the bodies had been buried, there was no need to make any more trouble. He could only wait for the next appearance of the Skull-Splitting Demon to see if there was any chance.

Since everything was fine here, he didn't stay at the company for long and took a bus directly back to school. On the way, he was wondering why the Skull-Splitting Demon was only targeting the Blood Scar Gang this time? Was it because the Blood Scar Gang had done something wrong? Or was there some other reason?

While he was thinking, he suddenly reacted, stretched out his hand, and firmly caught a crossbow arrow shot from the car window.

However, judging from the direction, the crossbow arrow was not supposed to hit him. If I was right, it would have hit the car door next to him and nailed him there.

He turned his head and saw a figure on the roof across the road disappear in a flash.

He looked away and saw a small piece of paper wrapped around the crossbow arrow.

This person obviously has good skills, because even a little bit of extra stuff on the arrow may interfere with the arrow. He can accurately shoot the arrow into the window of a moving car from a distance of more than 30 meters and ensure that the people inside are not hurt. His archery skills are very high.

He untied the note from the top, opened it, and saw a sentence written in blood, "It has nothing to do with you, go away."

He thought for a moment, it must be the matter of the Bloodstain Gang. It seemed like this was a warning.

Who could it be? The Chain Gang?

On the surface, the most likely group to do this is the Chain Gang, but he has also come into contact with people from the Chain Gang, but he always feels that this style is somewhat inconsistent with the temperament of the Chain Gang.

He said to the driver Xiao Wei: "Master Xiao Wei, stop the car in front."

Driver Xiao Wei said, "Okay, Expert Chen."

After the car stopped, Chen Chuan got out, straightened his clothes, and went to a secluded place. He took out a box from his briefcase and tapped it with his fingers. "I need you to lead the way."

On the other side, the figure who shot the crossbow arrow jumped off the roof and ran around a secluded alley. Half an hour later, he arrived at a remote small building.

There were several young men inside. When they saw him come in, they asked, "Brother Xin, how are you?"

The man took off his hood, revealing a young face. He took a few deep breaths and said, "I have already warned the expert, but I don't know if he will continue to help the Blood Scar Gang." When he mentioned the Blood Scar Gang, hatred appeared in his eyes.

A young man standing in the corner who hadn't come over said, "The legend of the Skull-Splitting Demon has been around for years, and no one has been able to solve it. I don't think it's necessary to do anything."

Brother Xing said seriously, "I told you, that expert is very powerful. He even dealt with the Flying Head Cult before, so he might be able to deal with the Skull-Splitting Demon as well."

The young man remained unconvinced. "I don't think such a powerful person would be frightened by your crossbow."

"You have to try it."

The young man said, "What we need is not to scare people, but more good weapons. For example, this expert, why not just kill him directly? Why bother with that?"

Brother Xing said in a deep voice, "It will be there. I've already made the contact. Once we get it, none of us will have to be afraid."
