He was once a top-tier assassin, an existence that even international police feared. Now, he's the small owner of a dry-cleaning shop.
To take care of his younger brother and sister, whom...
Hai Mingyue did not object to Li Jia's arrangement. Through the previous incident, she had realized that she could not help Li Jia here, so leaving with peace of mind was a good choice for Hai Mingyue.
Without further ado, after Li Jia saw Hai Mingyue off on the plane, he finally felt completely relieved. To be honest, on the battlefield, he wasn't very good at protecting someone; he was better at killing someone.
Li Jia took out his phone and called Angel to make arrangements for Hai Mingyue's affairs. After a moment of contemplation, Li Jia picked up the phone and dialed the number he had given to Hai Mingyue.
"This is the first time you've called me. Why didn't you use the internet?" A deep voice came through the phone after it was answered.
"My woman will be there tomorrow. She'll contact you afterward. Please take care of her for me. Also, have they made any moves?" Li Jia's answer was simple, and after answering, she asked a question casually.
After a long pause, a voice came from the phone: "Getting restless!... Da Gang, what are you doing? The Grand Elder wants us to go find him..." Then came a busy tone, indicating that the call had been disconnected, and a look of worry appeared on Li Jia's face.
Li Jia put away her phone and stood on a New York street, pondering where to begin investigating Hai Fei's cause of death. "Philinkland, the founder of New York Salaner Clothing, let's start with you!" Li Jia thought of Hai Fei's employer, Philinkland, an ordinary wealthy man in the clothing industry.
Having set her sights on a particular store, Li Jia went straight to a Salaner clothing boutique on the street. She went inside and chatted with the sales assistant, quickly learning the location of Salaner's headquarters from her. After giving the enthusiastic sales assistant a warm welcome, Li Jia left the store. When Li Jia arrived in front of what was once the world's tallest building, she couldn't help but smile. "Looks like I have a deep connection with this Empire State Building," she remarked. "Diamonds is here, and now even a clothing company headquarters is located here." After a moment of reflection, Li Jia straightened her brand-new white suit and, with a smile, walked into the magnificent building.
After finding out which floor Salaner Clothing was located at the information desk, Li Jia entered the elevator.
Salan'er Apparel's headquarters are located on the 70th floor, occupying one-third of the space. Without any hesitation, Li Jia walked through the door of Salan'er Apparel and went straight to the general manager's office.
"Hello sir! Do you have an appointment?" The only response was the cold pistol in Li Jia's hand. "I want to see Philinkland, now!" Li Jia's voice was cold, but it was undeniably effective!
"President, a gentleman wishes to see you, now!"
Li Jia had already reached the door of the president's office. She pushed the door open and went inside. She had only done that to confirm whether Philinkland was there.
"President Philincras! Hello!" Li Jia walked in and immediately went to Philincras, who was sitting behind his luxurious desk signing documents, and greeted him politely.
"You...who are you?" Philinkland looked somewhat flustered by Li Jia's sudden intrusion, because he had just been attacked not long ago.
“Don’t be afraid, I won’t kill you. I’m here to ask you some questions. I think we should talk alone.” Li Jia finished speaking and took out a pistol and placed it on the table. “I’ll say it again, I don’t want to kill you. Don’t force me.”
Seeing Li Jia's serious expression, Philinkland nodded, then stared into Li Jia's eyes and cautiously asked, "What do you want to know?"
