The mercenary, with a dagger gleaming coldly in his hand, aimed to thrust it into Lin Fei’s chest, a chilling attack.
But for Lin Fei, it posed no threat. He kicked upward, striking the mercenary right in the chest, sending him flying backward and crashing to the ground, splashing the water on the ground.
Lin Fei coldly raised the gun in his hand and pulled the trigger towards the mercenary.
The echo resonated throughout the sewer and traveled into the distance.
Without encountering anyone else, Lin Fei continued walking forward until he reached the end of the sewer, which led into a reed marsh by the riverbank.
This season, at night when the wind is high and the darkness thick, hiding in the reeds is indeed a wise choice, but Lin Fei knew the opponent would not honestly stay hidden among the reeds.
Being a mercenary for so many years, Lin Fei realized this time’s situation was not as simple as it seemed. At least these mercenaries looked like they came to steal something from Mo Country, rather than robbing a bank.
Otherwise, how could so many companions have died, leaving only the last two people to escape, which is simply impossible? Even if that mercenary wasn’t the best, he wouldn’t leave his companions behind and escape alone.
At this time, Wang Kai had already arrived with a team, and Lin Fei got into the car, directly instructing Wang Kai to drive to the seaside, as Lin Fei guessed the opponent would undoubtedly escape via the water route.
The group arrived at the seaside port but found no suspicious ships. However, as Lin Fei and the others continued searching along the shoreline, Wang Kai received a phone call, furrowed his brows, replied with a word, and then hung up.
"Boss, the last mercenary has been captured."
Lin Fei nodded and said, "It’s good that he’s caught. I should be going back."
"Where are you going?" Wang Kai asked.
"To a place without you," Lin Fei walked away without turning back.
Wang Kai showed a cold smile, aimed the long gun in his hand at Lin Fei’s back, and then pulled the trigger.
Unlike ordinary gunshots, when Lin Fei turned around, he saw Wang Kai’s face bloodied and blurred as he fell face down.
"Self-inflicted, betrayal; I never taught you that, but you did well. Seems Wu Yufeng taught you a lot. Pity you haven’t improved much."
After saying this, Lin Fei disappeared into the night.
Initially, Lin Fei did not suspect Wang Kai, yet Wang Kai had deceived him about the Poison Scorpion Mercenary Group robbing the bank, leaving Lin Fei disappointed.
Lin Fei didn’t know if it was because Wang Kai didn’t know his affairs in the mercenary circles or if Wu Yufeng didn’t know about it, leading to this flawed plan!
"Wu Yufeng must die!"
Previously, when told by Li Xiyu, Lin Fei was dubious, but today it seems Wu Yufeng had set a vast trap and hired some third-rate mercenaries trying to kill him, which underestimated him.
However, Lin Fei also believed that after this matter, Wu Yufeng probably couldn’t protect himself, after all, with so many people dead, Lin Fei couldn’t believe Wu Yufeng could do it unnoticed.
Lin Fei walked alone in the dark night. He felt a sense of regret over Wang Kai’s death—regret that such a good soldier had chosen a path of no return. In the end, although Lin Fei had tampered with the gun, it was Wang Kai who shot himself, indirectly making Lin Fei the cause of Wang Kai’s demise. Orıginal content can be found at 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝕟𝕖𝕥
Returning to the villa, Lin Fei saw Mu Shanshan’s room light still on. He knew Mu Shanshan had a habit of sleeping before ten, yet it was now one o’clock in the morning, warming Lin Fei’s cold heart slightly.
He pushed the door open and entered the second floor, knocked on Mu Shanshan’s room door, and it creeked open on its own.
Lin Fei quietly opened the door and saw Mu Shanshan asleep on the work desk. He cautiously lifted her and gently placed her on the bed, covered her with the quilt, turned off the light, and quietly exited.
Returning to his room, Lin Fei lay on his bed, unable to sleep for a long time.
The next morning, Lin Fei went downstairs and saw Mu Shanshan having breakfast. He spoke first, "Shanshan, do you have plans today?"
Lin Fei, feeling embarrassed, realized that Mu Shanshan hadn’t yet forgiven him, which was understandable. Yet, he still asked, "Have you thought about Keke?"
Mu Shanshan was startled, then nodded, "Yes, what’s up?"
"If you’ve thought about her, how about letting Aunt Lan bring Keke back?" Lin Fei suggested.
Previously, because Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan had to go to the main city and worried no one would take care of Keke, they let Aunt Lan bring Keke to Mu Hong’s residence, where Keke was happy, so they hadn’t brought her back. Naturally, Mu Hong wished Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan would quickly blossom and bear fruit to pass on the family line.
"Sure, I’ll call Aunt Lan today. Are you going to get her, or should I?" Mu Shanshan asked.
"You go. I don’t have a car, and I have some things to handle today," Lin Fei replied.
Mu Shanshan glanced at Lin Fei and snorted coldly, "You have things to do? Is it another girlfriend asking you out to dance and date?"
"Honey, I wouldn’t dare," Lin Fei replied quickly.
"Dare not? Is there anything you wouldn’t dare? Anyway, I don’t believe you," Mu Shanshan said turning her head.
Lin Fei felt helpless. Even though he was telling the truth, Mu Shanshan simply couldn’t believe it. He could only say, "Alright then, believe it or not, as they say, innocence prevails. You’ll see in time."
"I know you’re filthy by nature," Mu Shanshan said apathetically.
After breakfast and when Mu Shanshan had left, Lin Fei sneaked into Mu Shanshan’s room and found a BMW car key in the drawer. He grinned and turned to exit the room.
Entering the garage, Song An gently pressed the car key, and one of the cars’ lights flashed. Song An immediately walked to the car, got inside, started it, and drove away from the villa straight to the airport.
Soon, Lin Fei arrived at the airport, and he took out his phone and dialed a number. Someone answered immediately, "Boss, where are you? We’ve been waiting all this time. Haven’t even had breakfast."
"Give it a rest. Don’t they serve meals on the plane? Not eating goes against your nature," Lin Fei laughed.
"Well, I wanted to try the wifey’s cooking. Boss, where are you?"
"Wait at the entrance for me. I’ll come inside to get you."
After speaking, Lin Fei hurried toward the airport’s interior, his smile coming from the heart.
