"Well, let's not talk about this for now. It's all in the past." Seeing He Tingyan's expression, Wen Xi's tone softened unconsciously. "Can you tell me more about that group of people? The more details the better."
"The leader is from * Country, known as Old Crow. He's a notorious villain in * Country. Later, he fled to the turbulent areas of a neighboring country and quickly established his own power. As I just said, he does all kinds of evil for money. His sphere of influence is mainly at the borders of several countries, and he mainly operates in that area..."
Wen Xi listened attentively and silently digested the relevant information.
The countries that He Tingyan mentioned are completely different from China. Not only are they very far away from each other, but they are also full of turmoil. Of course, for those criminals, they are also full of opportunities and are their paradise.
The He family became enemies with the Wen family because of the death of a relative, and they became mortal enemies over time. But the Wen family has nothing to do with them at all, so how could they be related?
My uncle was a decent person and never dealt with such people, so it was impossible for him to be killed out of revenge; if he was killed for hiring a killer, He Tingyan just said that these people were doing big business, so why would they accept such an order?
They came all the way from their sphere of influence to commit the crime, and over the years, they have been helping the murderers to cover up the truth and silence those who are pursuing the murderer. This is really abnormal compared to the usual behavior of this group of people.
The person who hired the killer was also puzzled. If he was truly a Wen family insider, how did he know about such a secretive overseas gang? Paying for life isn't uncommon in China; as long as there's money, there are plenty of people willing to do it. Why go to all the trouble of bringing someone from thousands of miles away to do it?
After knowing the details of the murderer, Wen Xi not only did not feel closer to the truth, but instead had more questions.
After hearing what she said, He Tingyan thought quietly for a moment: "There is only one possibility."
"What?"
"The buyer and the old crow have a special relationship, as can be seen from the years of cooperation between the two parties."
"Special relationship..."
"Well, as for the exact relationship, the truth will come out once the person is caught."
"By the way, didn't they catch someone that day? Where are they now?"
"Dead."
“Dead?!”
Why did he die again?
Wen Xi was stunned.
Why is she always one step behind!
"Those three injured people weren't rescued?"
"There is no way to save them. They are doomed to die."
"What does this... mean?"
"Old Crow's methods mean that if you want to fight him, you must take a certain drug. The antidote must be taken at a fixed time. If you fail the mission, you will naturally not be able to go back and get the antidote. Once the time is up, you will die. There is no antidote."
"So cruel?"
"If Old Crow hadn't been ruthless, he wouldn't be alive today. This rule makes it easier to control the members, and it also prevents those who fail the mission from confessing after being caught. Mission times are precisely calculated, and Old Crow won't give losers any time to speak."
"But what if the mission didn't fail, it was just delayed?"
"Failure to return within the specified time is considered a failure. For Old Crow, it wouldn't be a pity for such a person to die."
How cruel and ruthless.
Wen Xi felt a tingling sensation on his scalp when he heard this.
"Alright, don't worry about Old Crow. I'll let you know if there's any news. Since we share the same enemy, there's no question of us getting involved. As for our relationship, you can end it if you want, but again, this is one-sided. I said, once I've made up my mind, I won't let go."
"Why are you so paranoid?" Wen Xi couldn't understand him.
