Chapter 58: This can't be known to him

From day to night, and from night to dawn.

Song Yichen reheated the food several times, and when the candles burned out, he replaced them with new ones, but Jian Xi still didn't come home.

I wanted to give my wife a surprise.

Forget it, let’s just make a phone call.

Beep, beep, beep…

No one answered? Song Yichen began to worry and called Shen Yan again.

Shen Yan answered: "Hello, Mr. Song."

A very official opening statement.

Song Yichen asked anxiously: "Where is my wife?"

The tone sounded like he was questioning a mistress.

Shen Yan was also speechless. He looked back at the house behind him, listening to the horrific wailing coming from inside, and walked away a little to make sure that Song Yichen would not hear the sound.

"Boss Song, Boss Jian is on a business trip. Her phone must be out of battery. It's my fault for forgetting about it. When Boss Jian is done with her work, I'll tell her that you called."

On a business trip again...

Although Song Yichen is also a domineering boss, he still cannot understand this kind of workaholic behavior.

Can your ears bear flying around every day?

"Then please remind my wife to eat on time. There is always work to do. If you need me, I can fly over at the first opportunity."

"Okay, Mr. Song."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Yan turned around and returned to the house.

This place is very dirty and damp, and it's obvious that no one has lived here for a long time.

A sturdy man was tied to a chair, with scratches all over his body.

They were all pricked little by little with a knife.

The wound was not deep and there was little blood.

But it hurts.

Especially when salt mixed with chili water is poured on together, even the toughest man can't help but scream.

Jian Xi poured all the pepper spray on him.

She threw it away and listened to the man wailing with an expressionless face.

"Tell me, who sent you to kill Jian Zhijie and Yan Muxue back then?"

The man was still howling in such pain.

"Just kill me." The man's words were almost squeezed out from between his teeth.

Jian Xi's limited edition Cucci outfit seemed out of place in this environment.

She brushed her long hair and said, "I won't do anything illegal."

man:"……"

What does the suffering he is going through now count as? Does he deserve it?

"Shen Yan, go buy some more salt and pepper." Jian Xi said.

She used T language, which men could understand.

"no!"

“Don’t buy it!”

"I'll tell you! I'll tell you everything!"

Shen Yan took a clean chair and wiped it several times before letting Jian Xi sit on it.

She crossed her legs and took her time, as if she was listening to someone else's story that had nothing to do with her.

The man took a deep breath, and the burning pain all over his body made his teeth chatter when he opened his mouth.

"I don't know who the original employer was. Alice was the middleman. Alice also took 30% of my salary. That woman is also in Country T now, using her beauty to deceive rich men!"

Based on the address he provided, Jian Xi and Shen Yan quickly found Alice.

Alice treated Shen Yan as a rich man and teased him to the extreme, almost performing a striptease on the spot.

Shen Yan stuffed a handful of money into her bra and successfully led her away from the bar.

Once in the car, Shen Yan's attitude immediately changed.

And Alice also discovered that there was a woman in the car.

A very beautiful and confident woman.

Alice was keenly aware that the atmosphere was not right, and maintained a wry smile: "Sorry, I don't want to do your business anymore."

She wanted to get out of the car, but the door had already been locked by Shen Yan.

"What do you want to do?" Alice asked.

But there was no trace of panic in his eyes.

People like her have generally seen all kinds of situations and won't be easily confused.

Jian Xi also knew clearly what method should be used to deal with such people.

She raised her chin and let Alice look at the arm-length black bag on the ground.

"Open."

Alice hesitated for a long time, then opened it, and her eyes lit up instantly.

It's all banknotes!

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

And it’s in US dollars!

A bag full of it, enough for her to spend for a lifetime! Alice turned to look at Jian Xi: "What do you want me to do?"

Jian Xi likes this kind of conversation, which doesn't require much talk.

"Who asked you to hire a killer to kill Jian Zhijie and Yan Muxue five years ago?"

Alice's face changed and she asked, "Who are you?"

Jian Xi: "My name is Jian Xi."

Alice was scared this time, and quickly explained: "It's none of my business. I'm just a middleman. Everything has nothing to do with me. You shouldn't take revenge on me."

Jian Xi grabbed Alice's hair and stabbed the knife in her other hand directly into her eyes, just half a centimeter away from her eyeball.

"Let me ask you one last time, who asked you to find the killer?"

Alice was almost scared to death, and said tremblingly: "He is a frequent customer of mine. I only know that his last name is Qin and he is not from Country T. I don't have his phone number, but he will contact me whenever he comes to Country T."

The last name is Qin...

The suspicion was further confirmed, and Jian Xi felt calm inside.

She let go of Alice and sat back down: "Do something for me, and you can take the money."

Alice was really scared just now, and she almost lost an eye.

"What, what is it?" Then he added, "I won't do anything like murder or arson."

Jian Xi sneered: "Next time that person comes, find a way to take a picture of him."

It's a simple matter.

Alice was a little uncertain: "Just taking a photo?"

Shen Yan unlocked the car door: "You can get out now."

After making sure that the two men would not hurt her again, Alice quickly grabbed her purse and got out of the car.

Watching her leaving, Shen Yan was a little worried: "Boss Jian, people like her will definitely take the money and run away. Don't trust them."

Of course Jian Xi knew this too. She smiled and said, "Call the police and say we lost one million US dollars."

One million, in US dollars.

With such a huge amount of money, the police will definitely set up a city-wide surveillance, and Alice will have no way to escape.

The next day, Alice, who was desperate, was blocked by Jian Xi and Shen Yan in the alley behind the bar street.

"I, I was wrong. I will never run away again. Please drop the case. I have a home and cannot go back to it. I have a daughter to raise. If I don't go back for a long time, she will be captured by the gang and become a slave on the black market!"

Jian Xi asked: "What about the photo?"

Alice nodded repeatedly: "I will shoot! I will definitely shoot! If I take the money and don't do the job, my daughter will be a slave forever and she will never be able to turn over a new leaf!"

The oath was very strong, but Jian Xi believed her for the time being.

Shen Yan gave Alice the email address: "Send the photos to this email address after taking them."

Then the two of them flew back to the capital that night.

Shen Yan drove Jian Xi to her doorstep.

"Mr. Jian, Mr. Song must be very worried about you." Shen Yan had already told him about Song Yichen's phone call.

Jian Xi nodded: "He can't know about this."

As soon as I turned around, Song Yichen was standing not far away.
