Memphis's skill in feigning ignorance was truly masterful.
However, Zhou Huimin had no patience to discuss these things with him. Chen Dong had been missing for several days, and she was extremely worried.
“You don’t need to play games with me. Seven days ago, your men attacked Chen Dong and his bodyguard team, didn’t they?” Zhou Huimin asked bluntly.
Memphis, seemingly oblivious, silently ate his steak. "Beautiful lady, I have no idea what you're talking about."
"Where is Chen Dongren? Was he kidnapped by you?"
Memphis showed a moment of surprise, but his expression quickly darkened as he looked at Zhou Huimin and Lin Zhiyuan. "We Freemasons do legitimate business."
"I have absolutely no idea what you mean by attack and kidnapping."
"you!"
Zhou Huimin almost rushed up and slapped him, but fortunately Lin Zhiyuan, who was standing next to her, remained calm and pulled Zhou Huimin back in time.
"Don't act rashly," Lin Zhiyuan said to her in a low voice. "We don't have any evidence right now."
Memphis looked up and smiled, his thin lips curling to the sides. "I'm warning you, don't try to throw all sorts of mud at us."
"You've come here to find Chen Dong, haven't you?" Memphis looked around and said, "Which room in this castle do you think could hide someone?"
Zhou Huimin immediately deflated. When the mercenary team led them in, they had walked through several corridors and found that the rooms here had no windows or doors, so it was definitely not a place to hide people.
Besides, this is the Freemasons' stronghold in Memphis, and he wouldn't imprison Chen Dong in such a place. If the truth were to come out, he would be in deep trouble.
"Let's go back first," Lin Zhiyuan said to Zhou Huimin.
After leaving the castle in Memphis, Vivian Chow seemed to deflate like a balloon, lying on the back seat of the car, unable to even breathe.
"Our people found traces of gunpowder on the road from Longteng to Huaxia Star, is that right?" Zhou Huimin confirmed.
"Yes. But there are only signs of an ambush. Other traces, such as tire tracks and footprints, have been cleaned up by them."
Lin Zhiyuan's eyes were dark. "They're most comfortable doing this kind of thing."
Zhou Huimin thought for a moment, then slowly sat up. "Chen Dong is definitely not in their hands."
"What? Do you have any leads?" Lin Zhiyuan asked.
“If Chen Dong were in their hands, Memphis would have offered us terms in exchange when we entered the castle.”
At this moment, Zhou Huimin thought of the conditions that the Freemasons had made to Chen Dong when she was kidnapped by them.
“If Chen Dong were in their hands and already dead… Memphis wouldn’t be sitting so calmly in the castle. They would definitely spread the news of Chen Dong’s death, because that would make Longteng’s morale unstable.”
Zhou Huimin sighed, "Let's wait for Yulia's answer. Yulia has resources from Russian agents, so she might be able to find out things we can't."
Yulia returned to Longteng to take charge of the overall situation, and this was the first time Zhou Huimin met her.
This woman is resourceful and cunning, possesses a powerful aura, and can keep her subordinates in check.
To be honest, although Vivian Chow was jealous of her, she also genuinely admired her.
Lin Zhiyuan advised Zhou Huimin, "Now that the Freemasons know we are looking for Chen Dong, they must realize that Longteng is leaderless."
"The Freemasons are eyeing our Longteng Group covetously. We must hold onto all our assets tightly."
Lin Zhiyuan paused, then added, "The boss is still missing. If the Freemasons take advantage of this time to attack Longteng, then we will be in danger."
Zhou Huimin sighed. She was really worried about Chen Dong's safety, but she thought about how the Freemasons were persecuting Chen Dong, partly to eliminate this competitor and partly to seize Longteng's assets.
She absolutely cannot act impulsively now, otherwise she might fall into a trap set by the Freemasons.
"I'm going back to Huaxia Star now. Huaxia Star has taken over Longteng's investment, and I must manage Huaxia Star well while Chen Dong is not back."
"As for the Dragon Headquarters... you, Annie, and Julia are all in your care."
After seeing Zhou Huimin off, Lin Zhiyuan returned to the headquarters of Longteng.
At this time, Yulia had already begun to build up her network of contacts and was making a big search for Chen Dong and his bodyguard team.
Chen Dong, whom everyone is looking for.
