Fang Zheng stared at the photo on the screen in front of him, remaining silent.
Chrissy Kate.
She is a senior executive of the Galaxy Group, mainly responsible for the internal and external operations and financial circulation of the Galaxy Group, and she is also the target of Fang Zheng's action this time.
Fang Zheng was experienced in destroying a huge chaebol family. Of course, if he was the emperor, he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. He could just execute the entire family and then punish all the nine clans. Killing them all would be fine. But now he didn't have that kind of power, so he had to take it slow.
And this requires skill.
Although most people would think that if they want to destroy a chaebol, they must start from the source and directly assassinate the top leaders, but in fact this is not worth it. Unless you can guarantee that all the top leaders of the entire chaebol family will be captured in one fell swoop, otherwise this behavior will only alert the enemy.
Fang Zheng chose her as the first target after careful planning. Chris was mainly responsible for the circulation of financial business in the Galaxy Consortium. In other words, the upper management made the decision and she executed it. If the consortium is compared to a person, then the upper management and the chairman are the heart and brain, and Chris is a finger.
Indeed, compared to the brain and heart, the importance of fingers is slightly lower, but it depends on the situation. For ordinary people, losing a thumb or something may only cause a slight inconvenience in life. But what about people who rely on it for their livelihood? For example, pianists and surgeons, even if they injure their fingers, their entire career will be ruined. If they lose their fingers, the pain is self-evident.
And Founder was chosen based on this point.
More importantly, Chris's status is not particularly high. If her status is too high, other financial groups may not dare to act rashly for fear of being suspected or implicated. But if it is just the loss of an ordinary employee, other financial groups can take advantage of the opportunity to compete for interests.
In simple terms, a group of pianists are competing for the championship, and then one of them suddenly breaks his finger and cannot continue to compete. The others don't even need to suppress him, as long as they perform well, they can take back the part he lost. And the pianist with the broken finger can't just fight with the others because of this.
After all, it was you who broke your finger, so there's no reason to vent your anger on others, right?
The reason why the Galaxy Consortium was chosen as the target first was because it was the second to last among the current six stars, and was in a very delicate position. It was originally very easy to be attacked from both above and below. At this time, as long as there was a small flaw, it would be fatal to it.
According to the information obtained by Fang Zheng after hacking into the network, Chris's daily schedule is very tight. Of course, as a senior executive of the Galaxy Consortium, she is also equipped with Star Pulse Generation as a bodyguard. According to the latest schedule, Chris will go to the Forest Park in the center of the city to supervise the review and safety of the central landmark building that is about to be completed on behalf of the Galaxy Consortium.
And this is also the burial place that Fang Zheng prepared.
"Okay, let's get started."
Watching the black convoy drive into the construction site, Fang Zheng stood up, put down the newspaper in his hand, and adjusted his tie. Then the next moment, his entire aura suddenly became dim, as if he didn't exist at all.
This is a unique skill that every assassin will learn. To use the words of the assassins in the Holy Grail War, it is equivalent to "blocking the breath". This is why the assassins of the Brotherhood and 47 are not discovered when they blend into the crowd. They restrain their breath so that no one can find them. To others, the assassins at this time are like small stones on the roadside. In their impression, there is such a thing, but they don't care what it is.
Just like now.
Fang Zheng, wearing a black suit, walked through the construction site. He cleverly chose a blind spot from other people's eyes, avoided the camera's filming, and came to the huge building in the center of the construction site. This is a triangular monument made of pure metal. According to the design, when it is activated, the entire metal monument will bloom like a flower, and then emit light from the middle, illuminating the entire park like a lighthouse.
At present, this metal monument is about to be completed, and the next step is the acceptance work.
Of course, it was not easy to enter the construction site. All workers were equipped with ID cards, and the roads leading to the central structure of the metal monument were blocked, allowing only senior engineers to enter. There were also security teams composed of Xingmai generations patrolling around, and under normal circumstances, even flies could not fly in. However... for Fang Zheng, this was not a big deal.
But, that's generally the case.
The problem with the Star Vein Generation is that they are too confident in their power.
Looking at the Xingmai Generation standing guard in uniform, Fang Zheng smiled. This was just like the people in the martial arts world. Basically, their perspective on the world had changed. In their view, only martial artists could kill martial artists, and those who could break through the siege and assassinate their targets were masters among martial artists.
They would never believe that an ordinary person who had no internal strength, no body skills, and no martial arts could assassinate the emperor.
But in fact, the emperor is also a human being.
As long as you are human, you will inevitably die.
And the ways of death... can also be said to be varied.
Many times, the dead don't need to do it themselves.
Just like now, there is a very strict control over the possible sabotage and infiltration by the Star Vein Generation, but the inspection of ordinary people is ignored. In short, as long as you can pass through that door and enter the construction site, you can do whatever you want.
After all, in their opinion, even if ordinary people cause trouble, they are no match for the Xingmai Generation.
However, there is more than one way to enter the construction site.
Arriving at the edge of the construction site, Fang Zheng lowered his head and looked at the sewer below. He frowned slightly, then jumped down and landed on the edge of the sewer as quietly as a cat. At the same time, a strong stench came to his nose. The stench mixed with the smell of chemicals filled the entire sewer. Just being close to it made people want to vomit.
In the sewer, several workers wearing protective clothing and masks were patrolling around to check the situation. At this moment, one of them looked at his watch, then turned and walked towards the gate next to him. Seeing this, Fang Zheng's eyes moved, and he hurriedly followed quietly.
The worker didn't notice someone following him. He just came to the door, took out his ID and swiped it, then the door opened. At this moment, Fang Zheng, who had been hiding and observing, suddenly raised his hand, and then a small stone flew out and hit the pipe next to him.
“Ding Dong!”
A loud bang was heard in the sewer, startling the worker. He subconsciously stopped pushing the door open and turned to look towards the place where the sound came from.
At this moment, Fang Zheng had already come to the door along the wall. After confirming the situation inside, he took advantage of the moment when the workers diverted their attention and rushed in - and the door was closed heavily behind him.
But this is not the end, because when Fang Zheng entered the room, a worker in protective clothing was sitting on a chair with his back to him and dozing off. When he heard the door open, the worker was stunned and turned around hurriedly. However, Fang Zheng was prepared at this moment and hid behind the locker next to him.
At this moment, the worker who had finished checking the situation opened the door and walked in again. Hearing the door opening, the worker who was sitting on the chair turned around again and looked at his colleague.
"Did anyone come in just now?"
"Oh, I just opened the door and suddenly there was a noise from the pipe over there, so I went to check it out."
As he spoke, the worker went to his locker and took off his work clothes and protective clothing.
"You're still slacking off here? If the higher-ups see you, you'll be scolded."
"It's just a deduction of wages, let him deduct it. I don't have much money anyway... Why should I work for him?"
Hearing this, the worker who had been slacking off before couldn't help but complain. The two chatted casually without noticing a figure in work clothes going out from behind the closet on the other side. Then, with a "beep" sound, the door to the inside opened. When the two workers looked towards the door, they only saw it closed again.
"Huh...done."
Fang Zheng was relieved when he walked out of the locker room. Just now, he slipped into the locker room while the other party was not paying attention, and then used the lock pick to open the closet, took out a set of work clothes and put them on, and then quietly took away the ID card of the complaining worker while he was talking.
Anyway, since you're just slacking off here, you don't need your ID card, so why not lend it to me?
The roads inside the entire monument were complicated, but thanks to the map on the wall, Fang Zheng easily found the core area of the monument. Just when he was about to go in to find out, he saw a few people who looked like big guys chatting there, so Fang Zheng hurriedly stopped, turned his back to them and pretended to pack up his tools, while listening to their conversation with his ears perked up.
"...Anyway, this is the process. Miss Chris came here mainly to simulate the entire process so that there won't be any omissions during the ceremony."
"Want to do the whole thing again?"
"This won't achieve the desired effect. Just make sure the monument can be opened and closed normally. As for the lighting, just wait until the end of the ceremony to turn it on. The most important part is the opening and closing part. There are five carbon fiber cables on one side. Not even one less will do! Check it again. If that thing is not installed firmly, the whole monument will fall apart. Then, no one who is giving a speech below will be able to escape and all will die. At that time, we will be dead too. You know, the top executives of the Galaxy Group will be there in person to give a speech!"
"Don't worry, there are sensors installed on it. If it is not firmly connected, an alarm will sound and the safety program will be activated to stop the opening and closing action."
"That's good... But we have to check it again on the day of the ceremony..."
A few people walked away while talking, and at this time Fang Zheng also put down the tools in his hands and thought for a moment.
Well, there is a way.
Avoiding other people and cameras, Fang Zheng quietly came to the structural area inside the monument. Soon, he found the cables mentioned earlier. According to the drawings, this monument mainly uses these carbon fiber cables to pull up the central structure and then drive the surrounding structure to unfold. Therefore, the quality requirements of this carbon fiber cable are very high. Each cable is as thick as a human body, and there are naturally sensors and fixings at the connection points.
At this point, the rest is easy.
As time passed, Chris, wearing a suit, came to the podium in front of the monument. Her bodyguards, the Star Pulse Generation, stood below the stage, looking around vigilantly.
"Then, the next step is to speak, then activate the device and open the monument. It's this button, right?"
Pointing at the button in front of her, Chris looked at the person in charge beside her, who nodded.
"Well, let's get started. We have to make sure it goes smoothly the first time."
"Okay, I'll tell them all to stay away."
Soon, everyone else left the podium, and Chris turned around and looked at the magnificent metal triangle in front of her again, then reached out and pressed the button.
"boom--!"
With the roar of machinery, the entire metal triangular monument slowly rose up, and the protective plates on both sides of it opened like petals, revealing the logo of the Galaxy Consortium inside. Seeing this scene, Chris also smiled and nodded with satisfaction.
However……
"boom!!"
Suddenly, in the next moment, the huge triangle that served as the main body of the metal triangular monument fell down without any warning and hit the podium directly. Before anyone could react, the metal body weighing hundreds of tons had completely smashed the entire podium and caused it to collapse.
"…Next, we will report breaking news. The Galaxy Consortium's surface building, the Star Tower, which was originally built in the Central Forest Park, suddenly collapsed thirty minutes ago. According to eyewitnesses, the Star Tower was undergoing a test start-up test, but the main structure suddenly collapsed, causing the accident."
"The accident caused one death. The deceased was Chris Kate, a senior executive who went to inspect on behalf of the Galaxy Consortium. The Galaxy Consortium is currently investigating the incident... The cause of the accident is not yet clear..."
Great, done.
Fang Zheng closed the window in front of him and nodded with satisfaction.
Next, it depends on how the Galaxy Financial Group will deal with the current situation.
