Chapter 476 Killer Qianliu

"If it's not for money, then it can only be to take a life. You should think carefully about who you have offended that would make them want to kill you."

The more Kong Wange spoke, the paler Tao Xiangjun's face became. In the end, he almost went crazy, saying, "Impossible, impossible... So many years have passed, those things are all in the past. It's all your fault. If you hadn't come to Kyoto, none of this would have happened!"

"If you don't want anyone to know, then don't do it in the first place!" Kong Wange said. "Whether I come to the capital or not, for some people, only the dead can keep secrets. Tao Xiangjun, even now you still won't tell the truth?"

Tao Xiangjun's face turned deathly pale instantly.

"No, no, it can't be her. I need to see Xiaoxue first..." He picked up his phone, glanced at the time, gritted his teeth, and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Kong Wange frowned and stopped him: "Are you going to the fertilizer factory?"

"Otherwise what! Don't pretend, it's none of your business!" Tao Xiangjun said as he rushed into the crowd.

Kong Wange felt conflicted. She exchanged a glance with Yan Su and made up her mind, saying, "Brother, I'll have to trouble you to come with me to the fertilizer factory."

"good!"

...

On the highway, Yan Su drove and said with concern, "We don't know how many people they have yet. When we get there, let's observe the situation from the shadows. If it's really dangerous, it's best to call the police."

Kong Wange nodded: "I understand."

"Have you guessed who did this?" Yan Su asked, turning his head.

Kong Wange narrowed her eyes: "We'll only know who it is when we meet them, but this person is most likely related to my mother's death."

Yan Su's eyes darkened, and he didn't ask any more questions.

In the silence, Kong Wange's phone suddenly lit up.

When she saw that the caller was Murong Ting, she was stunned for a moment, and then a sense of guilt welled up inside her.

She almost forgot that she had promised to go out for hot pot with him after get off work today.

She had forgotten to tell him because of the emergency, and he must be at the clinic by now.

She coughed lightly and answered the phone: "Hello?"

Murong Ting's voice came from the other end: "Where did you run off to?"

Kong Wange glanced at Yan Su, who was focused on driving beside her, and said softly, "I... came to the western suburbs to take care of some business."

"What business requires us to go to such a remote place?" Murong Ting's voice deepened. "Wanwan, you're not hiding something from me, are you?"

Kong Wange knew he would be angry if she didn't tell the truth, so she had no choice but to tell him everything. At the end, she comforted him, saying, "Don't worry too much. I'm with my brother. You know how skilled he is. Nothing will happen."

"Nonsense!" Murong Ting said in a fit of rage, "Send me the exact address, and I'll be there right now."

"Oh? You're coming too? Is it really necessary to go through all this trouble?"

"Wanwan, what if they try to kill you to silence you? Yan Su has to protect you and save others all by himself. Can he handle it? Listen to me, send me the address!"

Hearing the anxiety in Murong Ting's voice, she quickly said, "I know, but we've been walking for more than ten minutes. Can you still make it?"

Murong Ting said anxiously, "Don't worry, I know a shortcut. But you must be careful! Don't make any rash moves before I get there, understand?"

Kong Wange glanced guiltily at Yan Su beside her and said, "Okay, okay, I got it, I'm hanging up."

After hanging up the phone, she sent him the address.

Yan Su, standing nearby, looked on with a hint of amusement: "What, is your brother-in-law checking up on you?"

Kong Wange explained, "I had made plans to have dinner with him, but I forgot. He wanted to come over after hearing about what happened on my end."

"Tsk, you don't trust me that much?"

Knowing that Murong Ting was coming, Kong Wange felt more at ease and said calmly, "Having more people around is indeed safer."

At 10:30, about a kilometer from the fertilizer plant, the two encountered the taxi that Tao Xiangjun had hailed.

However, he suddenly asked the driver to stop the car and started walking.

"We haven't even reached the fertilizer plant yet, why did he go down there?" Kong Wange frowned.

“The kidnappers don’t want to make too much of a commotion, so Tao Xiangjun will probably walk the rest of the way.”

Kong Wange nodded: "Shall we still drive?"

Yan Su shook his head: "Get out of the car and follow, otherwise it will be too conspicuous."

Kong Wange opened the car door and quietly crept over with Yan Su.

The fertilizer plant was very large, and the two watched as Tao Xiangjun entered the backyard.

There were stacks of fertilizer piled up in the yard, quite high, which made it easier for the two of them to move around.

Not long after, the two saw Tao Xiangjun stop next to a fertilizer pit.

Kong Wange frowned and looked at Yan Su. Yan Su gave her a hand gesture, and Kong Wange nodded and followed him.

The two men hid behind a tall stack of fertilizer and looked at Tao Xiangjun.

Tao Xiangjun, standing by the fertilizer pit, was clearly agitated. As soon as he arrived, he took out his phone and made a call.

"I've arrived, where are you?"

After hearing what the other person said on the phone, Tao Xiangjun took a few more steps toward the fertilizer pool.

The next second, a black figure walked out of the building.

The other person was wearing a black baseball cap and all black clothes. Kong Wange and Yan Su were far away, and it was difficult to make out their appearance in the darkness.

Tao Xiangjun recognized her at a glance and exclaimed in surprise, "It's you? You're still alive?!"

Qianliu took off his hat and said calmly, "This junior pays his respects to Third Master Tao. I didn't expect Third Master Tao to still remember me."

Tao Xiangjun narrowed his eyes and said, "Having been in the underworld for so long, how could I forget the reputation of a dark web assassin? But I have no grudge against you and have long since retired from the criminal life. Why did you kidnap my daughter?"

Qianliu's expression was cold, and his words were devoid of warmth: "I am paid by the emperor and I am obliged to share his burdens. Someone in the Wen family wants Third Master dead, and I am merely following orders!"

"The Wen family? So all these years you've been missing, you were hiding in the Wen family, doing their bidding."

"Isn't Master Tao the same? It's just a pity that when I joined the Wen family, Master Tao had already left for many years, so I never had the chance to meet him."

Tao Xiangjun looked around and said coldly, "Enough nonsense, where's my daughter?"

With a flick of his wrist, Qianliu produced a gleaming dagger. He played with it and said, "Don't worry, I'll send you on your way first, then I'll send your daughter. You won't be lonely on the road."

After saying that, he began to approach Tao Xiangjun step by step: "Third Master Tao, are you going to do it yourself, or let me help you out?"

At this moment, Tao Xiangjun was no longer timid as before. His dim eyes were filled with a fierce look, and he seemed to have become a different person. He slowly assumed a stance.

He proved his choice with his actions.

"Very good." A mocking smile appeared on Qianliu's lips as he swiftly swung his blade like a shooting star.

Tao Xiangjun bent over backwards, and the knife grazed his face.

However, he was old after all, and his body was not as strong as before. Although he dodged the slashing knife, he could not dodge Qianliu's flying kick that followed.

He grunted and was kicked to the ground.
