Gong Mufeng suppressed his anger and continued to question the criminal: "What else do you know about this powerful person in Beijing? What is his relationship with 'Vice President Yang'?"
The criminal trembled and answered: "I... I only know that they call him 'Third Master', and I don't know his specific identity. But every time there is an important matter, it is 'Third Master' who comes forward to contact John Lin, and 'Vice President Yang' seems to follow his arrangements as well."
Gong Mufeng turned to look at Lin Yuexi and whispered, "It seems that this 'Third Master' is a key figure. As long as we find him, we may be able to follow the clues to catch 'Vice President Yang' and completely dismantle their conspiracy."
Lin Yuexi nodded in agreement and said solemnly, "Mu Feng, I think the key is to start with that couple. Since they participated in the kidnapping, they must be related to 'Third Master'. We have to follow them secretly, maybe we can find clues about 'Third Master'."
Gong Mufeng nodded slightly and responded: "I have arranged for people to investigate the couple. I believe there will be news soon."
Lin Yuexi's eyes flashed with anxiety, and she asked, "How long have the investigators been out? Have you found any key information such as their addresses?"
Gong Mufeng thought for a moment and said, "It won't be long yet. Maybe when we get home, there will be a result."
Lin Yuexi took a deep breath, calmed down, and said, "Okay, let's go back and check the situation first."
"Okay." Gong Mufeng responded, turned around and seriously instructed the public security department to do their best to protect the criminal who had confessed, and not to make any mistakes.
Afterwards, the two men walked towards the car while talking in low voices, got in the car and drove towards the courtyard.
When they returned to the courtyard, the whole family gathered around, and Old Master Gong spoke first: "Mufeng, Yuexi, what's the situation?" Gong Mufeng looked at everyone and briefly recounted the news he learned from the criminals and the matter of "Third Master".
After hearing this, everyone looked solemn.
Mr. Gong pondered for a moment and said, "This 'Third Master' has great influence in Beijing City, so he must be very cautious in his actions. If we want to find him, we still need to make long-term plans."
At this moment, the men Gong Mufeng had arranged to investigate the couple came hurriedly, with a look of anxiety on their faces.
He hurriedly reported to Gong Mufeng and Lin Yuexi: "We have already found out about the couple. The man's name is Yang Fan and the woman's name is Liu Lan. Liu Lan's previous claim that she bought a music box for her daughter was a completely fabricated excuse. They don't have a daughter at all."
The subordinate paused and continued, "They are currently living in a Western-style building in the suburbs of Beijing..."
When Lin Yuexi heard this, she realized that the location was not far from the western-style building that Mr. Xie had given her. It was really a blessing from heaven!
She immediately understood that if she wanted to get the key clues about "Deputy Yang" and "Third Master" from these two people, she must not alert them.
So, she thought for a moment and suggested to Gong Mufeng: "I will go and check on Yang Fan and Liu Lan. Maybe I can get important information this way."
When Gong Mufeng heard this, he was filled with worry and shook his head without hesitation, "No, this is too dangerous. I can't let you take the risk."
Lin Yuexi gently held Gong Mufeng's hand, her eyes revealing determination and confidence, and she said softly: "Mufeng, don't worry. I haven't had time to tell you that space also has the ability to teleport, which can ensure my safety."
After that, she pulled Gong Mufeng into the space and demonstrated the teleportation process herself. After witnessing this magical scene, Gong Mufeng's worries were slightly relieved.
That night, Lin Yuexi teleported to the western-style building given to her by Mr. Xie.
The windows of this western-style building face the western-style buildings of Yang Fan and Liu Lan opposite, so everything can be seen clearly from front to back.
Lin Yuexi therefore paid close attention to the movements inside and outside the western-style building.
Not long after, a black business car slowly stopped at the entrance of the western-style building. Several men in black got out of the car. After they talked for a few words with the gatekeeper, Yang Fan and Liu Lan came out.
When Lin Yuexi knew that they were getting on the car, she instantly entered the space, used the space to teleport to the back of the business car, and then hid in the space again.
The driver did feel a figure flash in the car, but when he turned around, it disappeared. He thought he was hallucinating and didn't pay any attention!
After driving on the city streets for a while, the vehicle arrived at an abandoned house on the outskirts of the city.
Lin Yuexi sneaked in carefully and saw Yang Fan and Liu Lan being taken to a room. A burly man with a stern face was sitting in the room. This must be the "Third Master" they were talking about.
"You two didn't do your job well and actually messed up everything! Now the Gong family has noticed something, what do you say we should do?"
The voice of "Third Master" was low and cold, full of majesty.
Yang Fan and Liu Lan turned pale with fear. Liu Mei said quickly, "Third Master, we didn't expect that Lin Yuexi would be so difficult to deal with. She seems to know some strange magic. I heard that after John Lin captured the three of them, she disappeared at the most dangerous moment. No one could do anything..."
"Hmph, what's the point of saying this now! 'Shadow' is already very dissatisfied. They require us to complete the task as soon as possible and obtain the method of making thermal weapons." "Third Master" said angrily.
"Third Master, we haven't even caught a hair of that woman yet, so how can we talk about obtaining the method of making hot weapons..."
Yang Fan's face was filled with worry, and his tone was full of helplessness and loss of confidence.
At this moment, he felt like there was a rabbit in his heart, feeling very nervous. After all, the development of things to this point was far beyond his expectations.
The Third Master stood in the middle of the room, frowning. After thinking for a moment, he said in a low voice, "I heard that Lin Yuexi has handed over some weapon manufacturing methods to the scientific research military base. Perhaps we have to find another way and look for opportunities in this regard."
There was a hint of ruthlessness in the eyes of the Third Master, as if he was planning a bigger chess game.
When Yang Fan heard this, his heart tightened, and he quickly said, "Third Master, in my opinion, my old man may have been exposed.
If he takes any further action, the risk will be too great and he may lose everything.
We have to find a way to leave China quickly, otherwise if John Lin is captured and can’t bear it anymore, he will betray our organization, and then everything will be over.”
Yang Fan became more and more anxious as he spoke, beads of sweat the size of beans rolling down his forehead.
When the Third Master was about to respond, Liu Lan, who had been standing by, couldn't help but say, "Third Master, it is indeed inappropriate for my father-in-law to take action again.
His every move is now under scrutiny. If he is not careful, he will get into big trouble. Something bad will really happen..."
Liu Lan's voice trembled slightly, and she was obviously frightened by the current situation.
