"After the girl left a message saying she was going out for a while, Ah Jiao and I stayed in the villa. Everything was fine until one day, a group of masked men suddenly broke into the house. I fought with them for a while before scaring them away."
I felt this was no simple matter, so I called in the guys from Spade City to renovate the entire villa, inside and out.
Wu Fangming recounted the story with a solemn expression.
He then added, "Since that time, that group has come to harass us a few more times, but none of them are a match for my brothers, and they are forced to retreat."
The group of people you encountered today should be the same group that attacked us.
There must be something wrong here; we need to find out who's behind this.
Qian Chuan nodded. "I originally thought it was Jiu Long's people, but now it seems that the time of your attack does not match the time when Jiu Long made his move."
Who could it be?
Or, who are they targeting?
Both of them looked at Chuanliu at the same time, and then exchanged a glance.
The ultimate goal of the whole thing seems to be only Chuanliu.
It seems this girl has done many things behind their backs...
However, what's frustrating is that Chuanliu can't say anything right now.
The girl felt their gazes and shrank back timidly.
Xiong Ajiao felt deeply sympathetic towards the girl's amnesia, as if recalling the scene of being abused by that person when she was in Plum Blossom City.
He quickly stood up, stood protectively in front of Chuanliu, and said in an unhappy tone, "Why are you two grown men staring at that girl all the time!"
"If there's a problem, go solve it. Chuanliu has amnesia; do you really want to force her?"
That's what I meant...
The words may be crude, but the principle is sound.
Qian Chuan and Wu Fangming exchanged a glance, each pondering how to find the person behind it all.
Wu Fangming stroked his chin and suggested, "Let's take another look at the place where you were attacked today. You seriously injured their people today, so maybe we can find some clues at the scene."
Qian Chuan agreed, saying that entrusting such on-site investigations to Wu Fangming was always a safe bet.
So the four of them set off together and arrived at the main road they had passed in the morning.
It was the hottest time of day on Paradise Island, and there were almost no pedestrians on the road.
The tire spikes have been removed, but the heavy black tire mark left by the car's flat tire and broken brakes still stands, revealing what happened that morning.
Wu Fangming immediately began to examine it.
Around the black tire tracks, several drops of blood were scattered, likely left by the masked man who had stabbed them.
In addition, someone must have been seriously injured in the car accident, leaving several obvious bloodstains on the spot.
Two of the bloodstains showed signs of being dragged by someone.
Most of the drag marks were deliberately covered up, but upon closer inspection, the general path could still be vaguely seen.
Following his observation, Wu Fangming walked to the roadside and, sure enough, saw the same bloodstains on the roadside weeds.
He ran along the clues and found two bodies abandoned in deeper grass.
When Xiong Ajiao and Chuanliu saw this, they screamed and covered their eyes.
"They must have been seriously injured, and their people were afraid they would become a burden, so they abandoned them here to fend for themselves."
Wu Fangming checked one of the people's breaths and shook his head at Qian Chuan.
He reached for another one, then his eyes lit up, “He’s still breathing.”
Wu Fangming stood up, looked at the masked man who was still alive, and said, "Take him back and interrogate him, then we'll find out who's behind him."
He pulled off the masked man's mask, and when he saw what the man looked like, he was suddenly stunned.
He patted Xiong Ajiao, who was still blindfolded, and said, "Brother Ajiao, sister, look!"
Upon hearing this, the two cautiously opened their eyes.
Chuanliu still looked puzzled.
Xiong Ajiao, like Wu Fangming, stared wide-eyed and said in disbelief, "This..."
If Chuanliu still had his memories at this moment, he would definitely have the same expression as them.
They never imagined that, after going around in circles, they would meet again in this way.
One of them is Zhang, the man who went to the island with Chuanliu, Xiong Ajiao, and Wu Fangming. He also has a younger brother named Er Zhang.
They were "Club 4" and "Club 5" when they arrived on the island, but it seems they have lost that identity a long time ago.
Wu Fangming suppressed his shock and carried the card back.
With everyone's care, Zhang finally regained consciousness.
When he saw Wu Fangming and several other familiar faces surrounding him, an indescribable emotion welled up in his heart, and he couldn't help but cry.
Perhaps, only by walking through the gates of life and death can one truly let go of many delusions and reveal one's true feelings.
The crowd sat quietly around him, waiting for him to calm down.
After a long while, Zhang wiped away his tears haphazardly and said, "Don't laugh at me, but I've already died once, so I don't care about anything anymore."
Wu Fangming asked, "Where is your brother? Why are you with those masked men? Why did you attack us?"
After a moment of silence, he said, "If my brother weren't still in his hands, how could I be under his control? Attacking you wasn't my intention; I... was forced into it."
"he?"
"I have a question in my mind," Qian asked.
Zhang Yi glanced at him and said, "You were one of the people in the car this morning, weren't you? Chuanliu's driver?"
Qian Chuan raised an eyebrow, offering no explanation, "Since you don't know me, why did you attack us?"
He chuckled lightly, seemingly with a bitter smile, "All I can say is that my orders were to intercept your car on the road and eliminate everyone inside."
Wu Fangming pressed further: "So, you still haven't said who the 'he' you're talking about is."
A hint of caution flickered in his eyes. "Why would I betray my superiors and tell you?"
Qian Chuan quickly said, "We know you were forced. We just want to know who's behind you. We won't expose you."
One of them shook his head. "I'm sorry, I can't say. The other one is still in his hands. I can't risk my brother."
Xiong Ajiao grabbed his arm. "Brother Zhang, we are your saviors after all. You can't just stand by and watch us suffer like this every day."
One of them shut its mouth, no longer intending to speak.
Wu Fangming said sincerely, "To be honest, I'm still the '10 of Spades,' and Chuanliu has become the '10 of Diamonds.' If you want to save your brother, I can help you. You don't want to be controlled by that person forever because of your brother, do you?"
Judging from Zhang's expression, he was clearly persuaded, but he still remained silent.
Qian Chuan said from the side, "Brother Fang Ming, if he doesn't want to talk, then so be it. Anyway, even if he goes back alive, that person won't let him and his brother go."
