Chapter 139: 125 126 Begin the Slaughter! The First Kill! Slay the Invaders! (Seeking monthly tickets, recommendations, and subscriptions)_2

Brother Kui’s face was etched with worry, “There’s still no sign of awakening. Another surgery will be organized tonight… Let’s hope Old Niu can hold on and wake up soon.”

Pei Jinye’s gaze was deep.

His communicator suddenly rang.

Seeing this, Brother Kui nodded in understanding, “If you have matters to attend to, go ahead. I’ll take care of Old Niu here.”

“Then I’ll leave it to you, Brother Kui.”

“It’s nothing.”

Pei Jinye left the hospital.

The message on his phone was from Fan Dahai: [There’s a mission, we’ll meet up later to discuss the details.]

Pei Jinye thought he had been assigned to Fan Dahai’s team, but after they met, he realized that the mission from the 13th Research Institute was still ongoing.

Pei Jinye looked puzzled, “The source of the poison gas has been found, and the related personnel have been handed over. Why do we still need to investigate the truth… Wouldn’t interrogation reveal everything?”

Fan Dahai shook his head, “That person in charge is just a scapegoat thrown out to take the blame. We haven’t discovered the real mastermind yet. The higher-ups are worried about a possible connection with the Old Gods Association, so they want us to investigate in secret.”

“What’s the plan?” Pei Jinye inquired, “If I remember correctly, the research institute is currently under seal.”

“Yes, the research institute has been turned upside down, all the substantial information inside is already out,” Fan Dahai spoke in a low voice, “So now we have to trace the source through the relationships of its members…”

“Trace the source?” Pei Jinye couldn’t help but look up.

“That’s right, trace the source,” Fan Dahai handed over a stack of documents, “These were collected by Xing Tian on the social relationships and personnel of the 13th Research Institute. Our next step is to check each of these people.”

Pei Jinye flipped to the last page, item number 317, his face turned pale green, “So the five of us are supposed to trace these three hundred plus people? Why can’t we utilize Xing Tian?”

“We thought about that too,” Fan Dahai shook his head, “First, the opponent is likely to be an old hand and thus won’t use network-based information… this way, they can avoid being traced by Xing Tian. Second…”

Fan Dahai lowered his voice further, “This even involves some high-profile families. Many of these people have some level of access to Xing Tian’s resources. Our investigation might be detected by their counter-surveillance.”

The “secret” that high-profile families had access to Xing Tian’s resources was hardly a secret anymore.

“That means the workload is pretty huge…” Pei Jinye browsed through the materials in hand, apparently quickly catching some key information, “I suggest we start with the high-profile families.”

Fan Dahai couldn’t help but smile, “That’s what I was thinking too. There are only three high-profile families involved… the Jiang family, the Sun family, and the Fang Family. However, strictly speaking, the involved personnel don’t fully represent these families; it could be that certain people within their clan are conducting things in secret. But I need to make one thing clear.”

The five team members, including Pei Jinye, all looked up attentively.

Fan Dahai spoke with grave seriousness, “This isn’t our first time dealing with high-profile families. It’s very likely that they will try to protect their corporate stocks and, hence, may prevent us from investigating further. We must be extra cautious and not alert them to our presence.”

“Understood.”

“There are a total of three families. We’ll work in pairs and start investigating tonight… All the related materials are prepared. Check them on your own and do not reveal anything.”

“Understood.”

Pei Jinye was assigned to investigate the Jiang family.

As for the Fang Family’s information, he happened to have seen it inadvertently — it was the family Fang Tianjian belonged to.

As for which party the 13th Research Institute was actually involved with, no one could say for sure.

“Hu Beng,” the young man assigned to Pei Jinye’s team extended his hand proactively.

“Pei Jinye,” Pei Jinye shook his hand.

Hu Beng spoke softly, “Did you see the file on the Jiang family? This Jiang Suhu is no ordinary person.”

“Who is he?” Pei Jinye really didn’t know.

“You don’t know?” Hu Beng was surprised, “Ten years ago in Da Peng City, he performed a heroic deed, taking on an Evil God cult organization by himself, saving over a dozen kids on a spring outing. He’s said to have A level talent, and after graduating from university six years ago, he returned to Da Peng City to manage the family business, becoming a leading figure among the younger generation of Da Peng City.”

Pei Jinye opened Jiang Suhu’s file, “What’s his connection with the 13th Research Institute?”

“At that time, Jiang Suhu intended to acquire the research institute, but as it got shut down, the acquisition plan also came to an abrupt halt.”

“Why was the institute shut down that year?” Pei Jinye asked.

Hu Beng suddenly became startled.

He began to rummage through the documents.

“I remember Fan Dahai mentioned it in passing, but it seems like it’s not stated in the material…”

Pei Jinye also started to look through the documents.

“I’ll ask Fan Dahai,” Hu Beng indicated with his phone, and Pei Jinye nodded, watching him leave before burying himself in the material again.

It wasn’t long before.

Hu Beng returned.

“It turned out that at that time, they found a large amount of contraband, and when the 13th Research Institute was shut down, the director of the institute at that time was also arrested.”

“Doesn’t seem very useful…”

“Indeed it doesn’t. Shall we check on Jiang Suhu first? To be honest, I even feel it’s unnecessary.”

“Let’s check him,” Pei Jinye was devoid of any filter regarding the man, “Since his name has come up on the list, we can’t overlook him.”

Hu Beng paused for a moment, then nodded.

A day’s investigation revealed nothing.

Hu Beng got back into the car, ready to drive Pei Jinye away, when his expression suddenly changed, and he looked at Pei Jinye.
