Thousands of miles away, at the winner's villa,
A study with a classic charm, a yellow pear wood desk, a sheet of Xuan paper, and a piece of calligraphy.
Beside the table, Ying Huaixia, dressed in a plain white robe, held a wolf-hair brush in her hand (see Chapter 290).
The communicator prompted him to put down his pen, move to his desk, sit down, and then connect to the call.
Ying Liu's voice came from the other side.
Ying Huaixia rubbed her wrist and asked calmly, "Is it Hua Qingyun or Hua Changle?"
Ying Liu meticulously recounted everything, from Hua Changle's interception of a black ship at sea to his placement of people at a base station.
Ying Liu added, "This matter should have nothing to do with the major forces in the Seventh District, because the commotion at sea was very small and did not alert anyone. It must be that their subordinates couldn't hold back and Hua Changle seized the opportunity."
"Judging from the route, this ship was originally destined for Speymagau."
"There is a person on the ship named Sun Ying, who was specifically requested by Hua Changle and should be the key to their investigation."
After a moment of silence, Ying Liu tentatively asked, "Young Master, should we deal with this person?"
Ying Huaixia paused in her actions: "Why should we deal with it?"
Ying Liu was taken aback and said, "Didn't the young master say that if there are any changes in the Seventh District's industries, he would give the She family a little help?"
Ying Huaixia chuckled: "But now, have those industries been caught red-handed?"
Ying Liu was stunned.
Yes, what Hua Changle intercepted were "goods" that someone had secretly hoarded, and they don't count as evidence of illegal smuggling.
but……
Ying Liu asked doubtfully, "But if that's the case, what if the people who did the private transactions tonight are related to those transactions? Wouldn't that also be evidence against the She family?"
"Didn't the young master say that this connection must not be severed under your nose?"
"Heh, I'll just intervene to keep the trade chain running; there's no need for me to patch up the loopholes for the She family."
Ying Huaixia picked up a chess piece and toyed with it, her tone playful: "I tried my best, but I couldn't stop it. What could I do?"
“Moreover,” Ying Huaixia’s gaze turned slightly cold, “it is also true that…”
"Isn't the fox already here?"
"We should be right under his nose. If something really happens, we should contact him first."
Ying Liu immediately replied, "Your subordinate understands. Your subordinate will not interfere with Hua Changle's operations."
"Okay." Ying Huaixia responded and hung up the call.
Ying Huaixia suddenly burst into laughter:
"Fox, oh fox, I bet..."
You can't hold onto Chang Le.
You will not get what you want.
You will lose.
Then, a piece was placed on the chessboard.
Ying Huaixia looked at the empty, deserted opposite side, sighed, and her brows furrowed with regret:
"Without you, Shen Fuguang, the only interesting thing in this world is Xiao Changle."
...
On the island.
Hua Changle said to Iris, "I'll stay here for a while and ask Sun Ying later. You and Xiao Si go back first."
Iris disagreed without hesitation: "No, I can't leave you to act alone."
"Listen to me," Hua Changle said.
“I have to ask Sun Ying personally. It will be difficult to find another opportunity to see her after this incident, so I will ask her tonight.”
"The mule thing can't be kept secret. The unusual gold-inlaid silver at the rare treasure shop will be discovered before tonight. The Cultural Relics Protection Bureau won't be able to keep things under control if you're not there. You have to go back as soon as possible."
After she finished speaking, Iris couldn't find a way to refute her, but she was really worried.
"Don't worry, with my abilities, there aren't many in District Seven who can do anything to me. I'll be back soon."
Unable to win the argument, Iris finally gave her a phoenix tail ring.
"This is a secret artifact that Luo Xuan crafted for me. It can conceal one's aura to a certain extent, and in a critical moment, it can withstand a full-force attack from an eighth-tier opponent. Take it with you."
Hua Changle did not refuse.
After seeing Iris off, Hua Changle went to the rooms of the other people who were being housed, besides Sun Ying.
When Hua Changle came out of these rooms, his face was so cold it could freeze.
What kind of torment must one have endured to have no healthy flesh left on their body?
Regardless of gender, no one has ever escaped being forced into a transaction that is worse than death!
It turns out Sun Ying wasn't the only one without a tongue. When asked why, the answer was... the buyer's pleasure?!
There are also nearly ten people whose internal organs are incomplete!
They were clearly human beings, yet they suffered inhuman torment at the hands of those who were not worthy of being called human.
Many of them, even if rescued, have already lost their future.
Hua Changle was so angry that he trembled all over.
Seeing something in a document or hearing about it is one thing, but seeing it with your own eyes is another!
These are just the mule's "secret stash"!
How many of those were sent to various places in previous years, and how many were traded by Spymagau year-round?
Hua Changle's mind flashed again to the materials room of Biluo Laboratory, to those children who were not treated as human beings.
Those terrified, young eyes overlapped with the numb gazes of the people in the room.
Anger made Hua Changle's eyes red and her heart pound.
She leaned against the wall, feeling a momentary dizziness.
She was burning with pent-up anger, which made her heart ache.
This fire was fueled by the She family, by Spymagao, by the Hua family, by Shen Fuguang… it had been brewing for a long time.
Hua Changle rubbed his chest and felt an itch on his back.
She wanted to vent, to release all the confusion and anger she had felt during this time.
"Miss Hua?" Linlin's concerned voice approached. "Are you alright?"
Hua Changle took a deep breath, suppressing his emotions, and said, "It's nothing. I went to take a look, and their appearance was infuriating."
Linlin's eyes reddened, and she said indignantly, "Those beasts deserve to be torn to pieces!"
