Chapter 259 Out of Control Drone
Xia Lili heard hurried footsteps and the sound of metal equipment colliding from the other end of the intercom.
"I'll take the security guards and give chase," Qin Chaoyang said quickly. "You continue to monitor the drone's movements and pay attention to the safety of the decoy."
"I understand." Xia Lili stared at the drone that was strangely hovering in the air, and her fingertips unconsciously pinched into her palm.
"Be careful."
The next moment after Xia Lili finished saying this, the drone suddenly seemed to lose control and slid towards Pei Qinyue!
Xia Lili's warning suddenly rang out from the intercom—
"Pei Qinyue, be careful!"
As Pei Qinyue stood up, a sharp buzzing sound came from above his head.
He looked up suddenly and saw the out-of-control drone gliding towards him at an angle, its wings drawing a cold arc under the light.
In a flash——
“Bang!”
Pei Qinyue picked up the flip-flops on his feet and hit them hard with his backhand!
Amazing arm strength!
The drone was shot away and spun in the air, but he rolled neatly and slipped under the champagne table.
——Smoothly and seamlessly, completed in one go.
Xia Lili widened her eyes and almost bit her tongue.
At the same time, the front yard on the first floor had already been evacuated by security arrangements.
The out-of-control drone fell heavily to the ground, its fuselage cracked open, and parts scattered everywhere.
Guo Zekai and Lin Fang, wearing masks, hid in the crowd. When they saw the drone falling into pieces in front of them, they immediately realized that something was wrong.
Just as they were about to turn around and run away, they were immediately picked up by two tall and strong bodyguards.
"What are you doing? Let me go!"
Guo Zekai panicked. He took off his mask and maintained his presence: "Look carefully at who I am. Am I someone you can stop?"
"Mr. Guo, we see it clearly."
The bodyguard had already restrained him with his strong arms: "We want to control you and Ms. Lin Fang!"
Guo Zekai's body trembled, and he quickly looked in the direction of Lin Fang, only to see that Lin Fang, who was wearing a mask, was also held by bodyguards.
Guo Zekai suppressed the shock and panic in his heart.
At this moment, a woman in a white dress and a golden mask walked over quickly and slapped Guo Zekai in the face.
"Guo Zekai, I finally caught you!"
The woman wore a pair of pigeon blood red earrings on her ears, which were the Fei Yu Liu Guang designs designed by Pei Qinyue.
Guo Zekai looked at the woman with disbelief in his eyes: "You..."
"You didn't expect that, didn't you? You thought I was in Haicheng, right?"
Zhou Ruoxing angrily took off the mask on her face, "Have you forgotten what you said at the wedding?"
Guo Zekai felt relieved when he heard this. He thought that the two bodyguards who held him were under the orders of the police to control him and Lin Fang. It turned out that they were Zhou Ruoxing's bodyguards.
Lin Fang also breathed a sigh of relief: "Ms. Zhou, you misunderstood..."
Zhou Ruoxing glanced at Lin Fang and said, "Shut up. I'm already showing you the greatest kindness by not tearing a woman apart."
"You go."
Lin Fang was delighted and wanted to get away, but the bodyguard behind him didn't seem to understand Zhou Ruoxing's meaning. He held her arm tightly and prevented her from leaving.
Zhou Ruoxing was riding on the head just now and rushed over when she saw Guo Zekai's face. Only then did she notice that the two bodyguards had been holding Guo Zekai and Lin Fang.
After she calmed down, she looked at the bodyguard in confusion: "Why did you arrest them?"
——"Because they are suspected of hiring a killer."
Xia Lili's voice came from not far away.
Behind Xia Lili, Qin Chaoyang and two security guards came over, carrying a man wearing a fisherman's hat and a fishing vest.
When Guo Zekai saw the man's pupils shrink, Lin Fang's face also turned pale.
Only Zhou Ruoxing was still stunned. She was shocked when she heard Xia Lili say that Guo Zekai hired someone to kill someone.
"Hiring someone to kill someone? Guo Zekai, you're really awesome!"
"you--"
Zhou Ruoxing wasn't stupid either. She suddenly realized mid-sentence that Guo Zekai would benefit most from whose death here. It suddenly occurred to her, "Could it be... that Guo Zekai's target for murder is me?"
Seeing Zhou Ruoxing suddenly freeze, Xia Lili nodded at her and said, "Ms. Zhou, if I'm not mistaken, you came to Emerald Bay this time to catch an adulterer because Guo Zekai deliberately leaked information to you and lured you here."
Guo Zekai and Lin Fang were petrified on the spot. Who was this woman?
Why do you know so much?
Xia Lili pointed at the man in the fisherman's hat that Qin Chaoyang was holding: "This man is the assassin he sent to kill you."
"His nickname is Achen. He's an islander from Emerald Bay and is proficient in drone control."
Qin Chaoyang continued, "Achen received news that someone wearing pigeon blood red earrings was going to be killed and the murder was to be faked as an accident."
He showed Zhou Ruoxing the jewelry drawings and diamonds he had found on Achen.
When Zhou Ruoxing saw that the exquisite earring pattern on the drawing was exactly the pair of "crimson feather gilded" on her own ears, she was speechless and her spine went cold.
"Emerald Bay is a relatively remote island, so it would be easy for the murderer to escape after killing someone."
Xia Lili looked at Guo Zekai as she spoke: "You gave Achen $500,000 to fly a drone to kill Zhou Ruoxing."
"After the deal is done, Achen, who is familiar with the waters near Emerald Bay, can use the money to smuggle himself into Southeast Asia."
With every word Xia Lili spoke, Guo Zekai's face turned paler.
Qin Chaoyang stared at Guo Zekai with a threatening look in his eyes. "We've already found 500,000 yuan in cash on the boat that Ah Chen was trying to escape on."
"Guo Zekai, we've caught him red-handed. What else do you have to say?"
Zhou Ruoxing slapped Guo Zekai's face hard again, and the crisp sound of the slap rang out again.
“Who gave you everything?”
Her voice trembled, and her nails dug deep into her palms. "Without the Zhou family, you can't even get a ticket to this game!"
"Look, what I hate most is your self-righteous look."
Guo Zekai tilted his head, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, but suddenly he chuckled: "But I was the one who doubled the market value of Zhou Group."
"So you want to kill me?" Zhou Ruoxing's red eyes were filled with tears, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall.
She took a deep breath and turned to Qin Chaoyang: "Excuse me, everyone."
Xia Lili noticed her slightly trembling shoulders and said softly, "Ms. Zhou, please go back and rest. I've asked Pei Qinyue to prepare a room for you. Just go to the front desk and get the room card."
Zhou Ruoxing nodded: "Thank you, but you are..."
Xia Lili explained softly, "I'm the security director, responsible for the safety of the passengers on this cruise."
"Security Director? I've got that." Zhou Ruoxing looked at Xia Lili seriously and then left.
When Qin Chaoyang handcuffed Guo Zekai, the man suddenly struggled: "How could you possibly find out! Who is it——"
