Chapter 254 Abandoned Pawn

The message that was transmitted back was from a sensor he had previously left in Linghu Buqi's villa.

Based on the time difference, it should be around 11 p.m. in the mountain country.

It was about time to sleep. Linghu Buqi had just finished his pre-sleep exercise with a foreign woman, but not the previous one.

Gao Ang didn't have a habit of eavesdropping, so he deliberately filtered out this information, but unexpectedly, trouble ensued.

The problem is that everything was fine before, so why did something go wrong this time?

"The timing is quite clever!!"

With no village or shop in sight, Gao Feng had no one to suspect.

If Linghu Buqi had died after the incident in Death Valley, Gao Ang could have shifted his suspicions to Ivanda.

No sooner had Ivanda left his villa than the incident occurred in Death Valley, which could be attributed to Linghu Buqi's collaboration with certain individuals in a diversionary tactic.

But at this point, Gao Feng had no idea who wanted to silence him.

"Your Majesty, arrange for a plane to fly to the Central Plains."

There were more than two hours on the road, which was more than enough time for him to make a trip to the mountain country and get things sorted out.

Upon learning that Gao Ang was going to the Central Plains, Xiao Ming breathed a sigh of relief and sent Gao Ang a message wishing him a safe journey.

"Why do I feel like your blessing carries a hint of relief?"

"No way, I'd be happy for you to go and do what you need to do. It's better than you constantly seeking revenge, right? Every time you make a move, you always cause some kind of commotion, and it's giving me a heart attack."

After glancing at Xiaoming's information, Gao Zheng's lips curled into a slight smile:

"Judging from this, Xiaoming knows that Linghu Buqi is in trouble!"

It hadn't been long, less than half an hour, and the news had already reached China. It seems that all parties valued Linghu Buqi highly.

After takeoff, the plane flew at an altitude of about 10,000 meters and then left the Daqin-1.

The round trip takes nearly half an hour, leaving him with at most an hour and a half.

To Gao Feng's surprise, when he flew over Linghu Buqi's villa, the entire estate had already been surrounded by the Mountain Kingdom police.

The number of police officers deployed in Los Angeles was not small; there must have been at least a hundred officers involved.

This is already quite incredible for a mountain country.

According to Gao Feng's understanding, Linghu Buqi should be a sensitive figure, and even if something happens to him, it shouldn't be the Shan Kingdom police's place to get involved.

To put it bluntly, the mountain police are not qualified to take on this case.

"Could it be that Linghu Buqi has been abandoned?"

Those who were monitoring and placing him under house arrest deduced from certain sources that he was no longer of any value, so they simply executed him.

If he still has any value, he either wouldn't have died, or even if he did, it should have been a higher-level investigation unit, not the local police in Los Angeles.

The search, the interrogation, the taking of statements—everything was so unoriginal.

Gao Ang didn't think these people could find anything out. His top priority was to find the foreign woman who had been partying with Linghu Buqi before he died.

The foreign woman was in the police car, and her personal freedom had been temporarily restricted as the prime suspect. The good thing was that she wasn't handcuffed.

She was dressed neatly, but her long legs were still bare, which inevitably drew the attention of many passersby.

The foreign woman was very pleased with herself, throwing out flirtatious glances every now and then, completely unconcerned that the man she had just made love with was dead.

Is this woman problematic, or is she truly heartless?

After ensuring the woman was under his surveillance, Gao Feng turned back to investigate the cause of Linghu Buqi's death.

At first glance, he passed away peacefully, without any pain, and even had a smile on his face.

There were no obvious external injuries on his body, so he should not have been subjected to any torture or forced confession.

The only suspicious thing was that Linghu Buqi's belly was bulging, like an inflated balloon.

Looking further inside the body, the specific cause of death was found: internal bleeding.

Multiple organs and tissues in his body suffered severe ruptures, and Linghu Buqi's internal organs were in complete disarray.

If a forensic autopsy were performed, the first incision would likely cause an explosion, followed by a shower of blood, along with various pieces of internal organs and sticky body tissue...

"I knew someone had made a move."

The only possibility for such severe damage to internal organs is that someone poisoned Linghu Buqi.

The source of the toxin has been identified; it is neither a plant toxin nor a chemical toxin, but rather a mutated virus.

The virus works on a simple principle: it disrupts the bonds between all cells.

If the quantity is sufficient, it can even turn a living person into a pool of blood within a short period of time.

Why was Gao Feng so familiar with this? Because he had seen similar virus principles in the Dort family's castle logbook.

"In other words, it was Ivanda who killed Linghu Buqi!"

It's that bitch again!

Gao Ang wondered if it was because he had glanced at her a few too many times when he picked her up at the airport that she became impatient.

Or is it because I didn't treat her well, and this woman is petty?

Regardless of the circumstances, none of that matters. What matters is that Gao Long now knows how he orchestrated the destruction of the Dort family.

Because of what happened in Death Valley, he still harbored some resentment and refused to confront them head-on again.

However, their biggest mistake this time was killing Linghu Buqi. Although he deserved to die, Gao Ang felt that Linghu Buqi wasn't that bad, at least much better than people like Zhen Feitian.

Moreover, he had promised him that he could go to Xia Jiancheng's grave and offer incense to him.

"You won't be able to offer incense now. I'll offer it to you all after all this is over!!"

After glancing once more at Linghu Buqi's gruesome body, Gao Ang sighed and turned his attention to the large foreign woman.

He had already determined that this woman was the source of the virus that transmitted it to Linghu Buqi.

While performing internal observations on Linghu Buqi, he discovered that the viruses were gradually spreading upwards from Linghu Buqi's genitals.

In other words, the virus entered his lower body.

Upon closer analysis, he figured out how the virus was transmitted.

Linghu Buqi is indeed a prisoner under house arrest, but he still has many bodyguards on the surface.

From food and drink to daily living arrangements, a professional security team is in charge.

Starting with everyday life makes it incredibly difficult, as you can imagine.

If they wanted to take over this manor by force, they would definitely face the support of a large army, which would be virtually impossible.

Moreover, even though Linghu Buqi has been under house arrest for three years, he was once a prominent figure in the Eastern Kingdom. If he were to die in a blatant assassination attempt, it would raise many questions and make it difficult for many parties to back down.

However, if such underhanded tactics are used, even if someone with ulterior motives discovers something, they won't be able to say it out loud.

Those who were close to Linghu Buqi couldn't bring themselves to say it, because the guy's death was too tragic, and it would be embarrassing to talk about it.

"Ivanda, Ivanda, you actually came up with this kind of trick...you're really something!"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, getting rid of the woman who had a one-night stand with Linghu Buqi would be difficult, but not that difficult.

The foreign woman sat in the car with the door open, covered with a blanket, looking quite flirtatious.

Suddenly, the police car started, and the "buzzing" engine startled the foreign woman, who reflexively withdrew her long legs.

Before she could react, the police car started moving and then accelerated. Due to inertia, the car door slammed shut with a "bang," followed by a "click" as it locked.

The police car carrying the foreign woman crashed through the other vehicles blocking its path and sped off in a cloud of dust.

Other personnel who realized what was happening immediately got into their vehicles and began various pursuit and interception maneuvers.

The police car sped along on its own, swaying and shaking so much that the big foreign woman inside almost threw up.

The woman finally found her assistant and steadied herself. Before she could react, she heard the sound of the car door opening and closing, and then felt the back seat under her bottom sink in.

There seems to be a shadow on the left?

Opening her dizzy eyes, the foreign woman finally realized that a foreigner had somehow ended up sitting to her left.

He looks like an East Asian, with black eyes, yellow skin, and black hair. Hmm, he's not bad looking, not too ugly, at least his nose is quite prominent.

Wait a minute, she remembers there was no one in the car before, so where did this person come from?

"Who are you?"

Confident in her figure and charm, the tall woman struck a pose, trying her best to highlight her best features in the small space.

Gao Ang ignored her, frowned impatiently at her affected manner, and slapped her across the face.

"What kind of time is this to be thinking about flirting..."

After muttering a few words, Gao Ang began to search the woman's memories.

"Natasha, a Saudi... Ivanda's playing it good, trying to shift the blame onto Saudi Arabia... Well, whenever there's any trouble in the Mountain Kingdom, the first suspect is either the Eastern Kingdom or Saudi Arabia... 200,000 Mountain Gold is too stingy, isn't it? This is a life, no, two lives! Are all big-breasted people brainless? You don't really think you can live to spend this money, do you?... Cash payment, full payment... Hmm, interesting... Let me see who's paying you... A drone... Time... Location... Drone model... Tracing the drone's purchase record... Bitcoin payment?"

The most direct clue ends here.

However, Gao Feng kicked open the car door and teleported into the air, causing the car to crash into an advertising billboard at a speed of 150 kilometers per hour.

"A trip to Death Valley?"

After glancing in the direction of Death Valley, Gao Feng felt a surge of excitement.

But then he checked the time again and saw that half an hour had already passed, which meant he only had one hour left.

If something goes wrong, the secret will probably be exposed in the Central Plains.

Being caught is easy to deal with, but what's hard to deal with is being placed under house arrest again, which is quite disgusting.

After taking one last deep look at Linghu Buqi's body, Gao Ang shook his head and leaped into the air.

Back on the Qin Dynasty One, Gao Ang brewed himself a pot of tea, while Qian Sui was still busy controlling the aircraft in the cockpit.

Seeing Qian Sui's bored figure, Gao Ang asked, "Qian Sui, do you think I can level you up?"

“Sir, I don’t think it’s necessary, and there are certain risks involved.”

“Is it really necessary?” Gao Ang took a sip of tea and shifted his posture. “Sitting there like that is like tying yourself up. It’s so restrictive.”

"It's alright. If you find it inconvenient, I can make a few more little robots later."

Qian Sui thought Gao Gao was just too lazy to make his own tea, which was why he asked that question.

“What are you thinking? I just think you need some personal space, like reading a book, watching TV, or taking a walk around.”

"It's only during the flight; the rest of the time I'm free!"

Fine, since you've put it that way, what else can I, Gao Ang, do?

As for the danger that Qian Sui mentioned, Gao Ang completely ignored it.

Theoretically speaking, Qian Sui and his group should belong to the first generation of biological intelligence.

The cells that formed them were the kind that were not fully developed, but after this period of evolution, Gao Ang felt that his cells had improved a lot again.

In other words, if his current cells were used to regenerate a "thousand-year-old," it would likely be far more powerful than the current thousand-year-old, and might even be able to directly break free from the anti-gravity device's data cable.

Gao Feng himself knew about this theory, but he had never tried it.

Laziness isn't the problem; the key issue is that he made a prediction: if it really comes true, what will happen to the current "thousand-year-old" if a new "thousand-year-old" emerges?

Having spent so much time together, he and the three brothers have developed a very tacit, symbiotic relationship.

He has even come to regard the three brothers as his own family.

If a new friend suddenly comes along, does that mean I have to give up the feelings I've developed over this period?

He can't do it.

Should the new friend live with the three of them?

He couldn't do it either. He was a very loyal and devoted person, and he didn't want his few remaining friendships to be broken up again.

"Actually... this is fine too!"

After finishing his tea, Gao Ang greeted everyone, "We're here, let's go downstairs."

The plane landed safely. After landing, I didn't rush out, but instead went to the tail of the plane.

He snapped his fingers, and a hole appeared under the plane's rear, from which his modified, beat-up little car slowly slid down.

Gao Ang is a nostalgic person, but that doesn't mean he's pedantic.

He also wanted to drive the car that Qian Sui and his team made. It had a unique design, a high-class feel, and would definitely turn heads on the road.

However, there's a problem: that car has no manufacturing record, no vehicle registration, etc., meaning it doesn't have permission to be driven on the road...

Left with no other choice, he had to continue driving that beat-up little car.

After watching Qian Sui for a day, Gao Ang pointed to the back seat and said, "Don't sit in the front passenger seat, it's too eye-catching."

"Sir, shall I drive?"

"You want to sit here?"

Gao Feng pointed to the driver's seat.

"Um, sir, you should do it..." After tilting her head and thinking for a while, Chisui finally realized that they were in reality, not on their small island, nor in the desolate high altitude.

"You bastard..."

He tapped Qian Sui remotely, then Ang Gao opened the car door and got in. "You take over the controls for a bit, I'll watch some short videos!"

Previously, Gao Ang was afraid of interfering with his live streaming time, so he didn't do much short video. But now it's different. He's become a hands-off manager. He doesn't have to worry about food or drink anymore. He lacks everything except time, so he's picked up the short videos he had previously missed.

And you know what? This stuff is really addictive!

As Gao Ang drove away from the airport through the special passage, he couldn't help but exclaim: "It feels really good to use privileges!"

Thinking back to the past, whether it was taking a plane or a high-speed train, every transfer was a huge hassle, and waiting in line for a taxi was even more of a pain.

You'll just have to wait; you'll get sick of waiting.

It takes about an hour and a half to get from Zhongyuan International Airport to Xudu.

Gao Ang sat in the driver's seat, holding his phone in both hands on the steering wheel. The old car was being driven by Qian Sui at a speed of about 118 km/h.

Even when overtaking or changing lanes, the speed didn't decrease much.

His unremarkable old car was driving recklessly on the highway, overtaking other vehicles at will, which infuriated the other drivers.

Some people tried to race against Gao Gao, but Qian Sui easily overtook or avoided them within a controllable and legal range.

They were just trying to get there quickly, not trying to show off. These people are really not very bright.

Ignoring the various provocations from passersby, Qian Sui didn't bother to argue with them and continued driving at her current speed.

The speed was 118 km/h, which is not speeding. The speed limit on this highway is 120 km/h, so it is completely compliant and legal!

Although it was compliant and legal, Gao Ang heard the sound of a police siren coming from the rear of the car, growing louder as it approached.

"No way, could it have been reported?"
