Feng Mi – Little devil;
Jojo – "Ace of Spades";
Ma Wenyue – “Ace of Hearts”;
Shangguan Shu – “Ace of Diamonds”;
so……
"Joker" is... "Ace of Clubs"!
Chuanliu and Qianchuan's eyes suddenly met, both revealing unbelievable shock.
But the reasons behind this shock are quite different.
Qian Chuan confirmed the identity of the culprit who was most likely to poison his master.
Chuanliu's shock stemmed from the fact that the truth she had painstakingly and relentlessly pursued had finally come to light—she saw the name of the target she had been searching for all along.
The fact that the little devil and the four-color "A" signed a peace agreement is something that all the high-ranking officials can confirm.
Therefore, the identity of "Joker" in this file is undoubtedly confirmed.
Therefore, Wu Lide, the "Ace of Clubs," is the "Joker" she is looking for!
After confirming his goal, Chuanliu prepared to go home immediately and call the WD Investigation Bureau.
She walked lightly out of the mansion alongside Qian Chuan, her tone tinged with relief, "Now that you've come to terms with it, I'm not afraid you'll do anything foolish again. Qian Chuan, living a peaceful life on Paradise Island is no longer realistic."
Qian Chuan seemed to have regained the carefree demeanor he had when they first met. With his hands casually in his pockets, he faced the warm sunlight and a teasing smile appeared on his lips. "You're lecturing me now."
He slowly approached Chuanliu, a complex look flashing in his eyes. His hand unconsciously rose, but just before it touched her cheek, he gently patted her shoulder instead.
His tone carried a hint of worry, "Next, I need to go to Wuwang District to arrange some things. Take care of yourself."
Chuanliu mimicked his gesture, patting him on the shoulder, "Have you thought it through? Do you really want to go against him?"
Qian Chuan nodded, his eyes flashing with unprecedented determination. "I chose to hide before, but now I don't want to hide anymore."
Chuanliu smiled and said, "Moneykyuu, you can do it."
She took a deep look at the man who, after two years, had rekindled his fighting spirit.
She will be able to leave here soon.
This... must be the last time she saw him.
As Chuanliu turned to leave, she didn't notice that Qianchuan behind her was following her back with a gaze that was filled with complex emotions, a deep-seated restraint.
"Boss! Boss! Big news!"
Before Chuanliu had taken more than a few steps, Qian Chuan's men rushed over in a hurry.
Chuanliu subconsciously turned to look at the man, who guiltily touched his neck and turned his head away.
Upon seeing Chuanliu, his subordinate immediately bowed and said, "Lord Chuanliu, are you here to tell my boss about that matter?"
Qian Chuan quickly stepped forward and leaned against Chuan Liu. "What is it?"
The subordinate hurriedly reported, "This morning, three high-ranking officials suddenly broke into the home of 'Jack of Squares' Li Chengfeng. They not only accused Li Chengfeng of being the shooter yesterday, producing the gun and the results of the gunpowder reaction reagent; they also found evidence in his home of Li Chengfeng's long-standing collusion with Plum Blossom City, involving the buying and selling of Square City residents!"
The subordinate took a breath and continued, "They destroyed the guns in public, and then...then they started fighting, and then Li Chengfeng was arrested and executed on the spot. The higher-ups announced it on the spot, announced..."
"Don't rush, speak slowly," Qian Chuan said.
The subordinate swallowed hard, glancing at Kawaryu beside him. "Announcement: Kawaryu-sama has succeeded as 'J of Diamonds'! Kawaryu-sama, they're currently looking for you and the other lords at the Diamond Building."
Chuanliu raised an eyebrow in surprise. She hadn't expected Zhou Zheng to act so quickly and deal with Li Chengfeng so decisively.
With things having come to this point, Chuanliu couldn't go straight home, so he had no choice but to go to the Cube Building with Qianchuan.
It's unexpected that the group of people who gathered yesterday would reunite today.
Zhou Zheng, Liu Xingxing, and Jin Rugo, the three senior executives, collectively awarded Chuanliu the "Jack of Diamonds" badge. The return of the "Ten of Diamonds" badge will be arranged separately after discussion among the senior executives, while the others will be given priority.
Chuanliu officially became one of the high-ranking members of the Block City.
To others, the events unfolded too suddenly. It seemed that Chuanliu had simply benefited from Li Chengfeng's downfall, gaining a promotion. But the real reasons behind it all were probably only known to Zhou Zheng and herself.
Ma Tong, Huang Xindi, and others offered their congratulations to Chuanliu.
While some rejoice, others grieve...
Plum Blossom Main City, 14th floor.
"Beep—beep—beep—"
"Beep—beep—beep—"
The call went unanswered, and a look of worry crossed Wu Lide's face.
He just spoke with Li Chengfeng on the phone yesterday, how come there's been no news at all today? Could something really have happened...?
An ominous premonition welled up in his heart.
Knock knock knock.
A short while later, there was a knock on his door.
"Enter."
Two men and one woman walked in.
“Lide, you were looking for us?” one of the men, with a full head of white hair, said.
Wu Lide nodded and said in a deep voice, "I can't get in touch with Li Chengfeng anymore. Elder Yan, have we transferred that payment to him yet?"
The old man, referred to as "Old Man Yan," stroked his white beard. "Of course, you're urging me so late at night, just for a few hundred thousand yuan. How could I not do it for you?"
Wu Lide chuckled twice, but his expression remained uncomfortable.
“Yesterday, Li Chengfeng told me that they are cracking down hard over there and they will not be able to supply us with goods in the short term.”
Another man hurriedly said, "What? The City of Hearts is gone, the City of Spades is gone, and now Li Chengfeng is quitting too? What are we going to do then?"
Wu Lide was silent for a moment, then asked, "Afan, how many people do we have left in the team?"
Afan thought for a moment and said, "Including the group from a couple of days ago, we can only last for about two months. But if we add the group of vagrants outside the main city of Plum Blossom City..."
He was interrupted by Wu Lide halfway through his sentence, who said, "Alright, I understand."
The woman, who had been silent until now, slowly spoke, "Lide, are you ready to carry out that plan?"
Wu Lide remained silent, seemingly weighing the pros and cons.
Just then, his phone finally rang.
He answered immediately, but his expression changed from expectant to extremely gloomy.
The other three exchanged glances, all realizing that the news on the other end of the phone was definitely not good.
Soon after, Wu Lide hung up the phone and said in a deep voice, "That good-for-nothing Li Chengfeng has been exposed and has been killed by those guys from Cube City."
A hint of schadenfreude lingered in Afan's eyes. He didn't seem saddened by the loss of his supply source; instead, his eyes were filled with anticipation. "Brother Lide, since that's the case, what are you still hesitating about? Let's begin our plan!"
