Chapter 225 Liquidation
Xin Que's plan was actually not very sound.
She was even prepared for failure.
But she never expected Huo Fenglin to make a move today.
Upon hearing the commotion in the main house, Xin Que immediately stood up.
It's simply... a godsend.
"You, immediately go with your team leader to seal off all entrances and exits of the Huo family's residence, leaving only the main gate open for ambulances to enter and exit."
The minister, with a solemn expression, directed Xin Que's team to take swift action.
Xin Que followed behind the team leader and quickly left the hidden stakeout area.
"Those two go to the west gate, you and I will go to the east gate!"
The team leader kept moving, and the entire Huo family began to stir.
Xin Que followed the team leader and hurried towards the east gate.
In the instant he turned the corner, Xin Que seized the opportunity, the dagger slipped from his sleeve into his hand, and he struck out swiftly.
The team leader heard a metallic sound as it cut through the air, and his years of muscle memory quickly triggered a reaction.
Xin Que swiftly charged forward, and as the man was about to retreat and dodge, she shifted her body to the side and channeled her power into her elbow, delivering a heavy elbow strike to the man's temple.
"Bang!"
"You..." The man gripped Xin Que's wrist tightly as she was about to stab him with the dagger, trying to buy himself a chance to fight back. "Whose side are you on?"
"Sorry," Xin Que said coldly, casually calling Huo Fenglin out as a scapegoat, "No one can stop the young master's plan!!!"
The man's eyes widened. "What do you mean, 'young...'"
The dagger had already penetrated his artery.
Xin Que glanced at the communicator that was running on the man's body, then quickly got up and left.
Only a corpse with its eyes wide open in death remained lying in the corner.
Next...
It's time to settle old scores and new grudges.
...
"How could they have been poisoned?!" Feng Caijun rushed over and was shocked to see that the Huo family of four were almost unconscious.
Without even glancing at Huo Fenglin, who was already slumped over the table, he strode over to Huo Tinghua's seat. "Sir! I've already contacted an ambulance..."
Huo Tinghua struggled to stay conscious, saying, "We can't call an ambulance...the media..."
Feng Caijun immediately changed his tune, "I'll have my driver bring a private car over right away, please hang in there!"
Before Huo Tinghua lost consciousness, his gaze fell on his eldest son, whose fate was unknown, standing beside him.
Who could it be?
Who on earth has the guts to do this...?
Huo Fenglin was the last one to be helped to the side by Feng Caijun.
"Successfully." Feng Caijun lowered his voice.
Huo Fenglin's feigned poisoning did not relax. He lowered his head and lowered his voice to the lowest level, "Remember to raise the security level of the Huo family to the highest level."
"Also, go and prepare a stand-in for me, make sure everything is perfect."
Ever since Xin Que gave him such a big surprise at the hotel last time, Huo Fenglin has been in a state of high alert.
Furthermore, the fact that Xin Que held such a huge handle against him yet hadn't shown up yet gave him the impression that Xin Que was constantly looking for an opportunity to infiltrate his side, ready to deliver a devastating blow at any moment.
From the day he got rid of Xin Que, Huo Fenglin had been looking for a spare body to serve as his substitute.
He must ensure that he remains in a state of absolute safety at all times.
However, body conversion technology is still not completely without side effects. After much thought, Huo Fenglin finally decided to use assassins and androids as his stand-ins.
To achieve the most perfect act of deception...
Before his true parentage is revealed, eliminate any direct relatives who can prove his bloodline and take control of the entire Huo family as soon as possible.
But you must not allow yourself to be tainted in the slightest.
The best outcome would be that he is also a victim.
As for the person who bears all the blame?
Xin Que is the most suitable.
As long as the Huo family members who can prove their bloodline are dead, Xin Que's so-called incriminating evidence can be completely twisted into a traitor's slander against the master family.
Regardless of whether he could shut her up, Huo Fenglin could still blame all the recent negative news about the Huo family on Xin Que.
Feng Caijun helped Huo Fenglin to the storage room not far away.
What happens next will follow their predetermined path...
The light from the decorative wall lamp on the wall seemed to flicker.
Upon closer inspection, it was just an inconspicuous moth, fluttering around the warm, slightly glaring light bulb.
Feng Caijun withdrew his gaze from the wall lamp and turned to leave the main house.
He is now going to meet the private doctors who have come to treat the Huo family.
Just after Feng Caijun left the hall, a figure seemed to flash by in the dimly lit corner.
Huo Fenglin heard an extremely faint footstep coming from outside the storage room, and his heart immediately jumped into his throat.
He dared not breathe, and after the sound disappeared, he immediately followed the pre-prepared route to the secret room underground in the Huo family's residence.
Once he was certain that he was absolutely safe, Huo Fenglin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He took out his portable computer, which he had prepared in advance, and pulled up the surveillance footage from the Huo family.
An unexpected person appeared in the corridor.
Huo Fenglin broke out in a cold sweat when the man in the undercover uniform looked up at the camera.
Those eyes!
He will never admit his mistake in his entire life...
Those eyes, filled with malevolence and malice, belonged to Xin Que.
Huo Fenglin's breathing became increasingly rapid.
Thank goodness.
Fortunately, he had made preparations in advance!
Watching Xin Que use her silenced pistol to take out the housekeepers and servants who heard the commotion, Huo Fenglin's nerves tightened once again.
Xin Que was even more ruthless than he had imagined.
Judging from her uniform, she must have already infiltrated the Huo family and been lying low, waiting for an opportunity to take revenge.
He inadvertently created an opportunity for Xin Que to make a move...
Huo Fenglin's tense mind suddenly erupted with a strange sense of excitement.
The right time, the right place, and the right people!
Even the heavens are on his side, eagerly sending Xin Que, the most suitable pawn to eliminate the Huo family, to him!
He hid in a completely safe and secluded place, watching Xin Que kill his way through each room.
Those things that get in the way, those that are annoying, those that only hold things back...
They all perished tonight.
When Huo Fenglin saw Xin Que standing in front of the stand-in he had prepared, all the muscles in his body tensed up.
As long as "he" is killed, Xin Que will flee in panic and die in the pursuit, while the real her will be safely rescued after the search... and everything will be in a vicious cycle.
Huo Fenglin gritted his teeth, his eyes bulging as if he were about to leap out of the screen, grabbed Xin Que's gun-wielding hand, and aimed at the body double to fire.
Xin Que held the gun, but hesitated to pull the trigger.
After a long time, so long that Huo Fenglin almost thought Xin Que had figured out that the person who had fainted in front of him was not the real person but a substitute, Xin Que finally moved.
After the gunshot, it was all over.
When the assassins and spies rushed to the main house to provide support, they only saw Xin Que leaning against the second-floor railing, covered in blood.
"Hey, you guys don't remember me at all?"
Xin Que toyed with the metal buckle in her hand, her face expressionless, her pair of sinister and sharp eyes sweeping over the armed personnel who hesitated in the first-floor entrance.
The leader racked his brains but couldn't figure out who this person was really.
"Remember this!" With a clang, the metal buckle in Xin Que's hand fell over the second-floor railing and landed on the ground floor.
The new head of the assassination squad stared wide-eyed when he saw the shape of the metal buckle.
That's the safety pin on a hand grenade!
The assassins who were originally going to surround and kill Xin Que from behind immediately slowed down.
“Xin Que, the former head of the undercover unit,” Xin Que’s lips curled into a crazy, eerie smile, “came here after surviving a near-death experience to seek revenge!”
