Chapter 809: Too unlucky

Chapter 809: Too unlucky

Knock, knock, knock. Someone was knocking on the door outside the villa.

Everyone in the house came out to the main hall and looked at Wang Jing. “Elder, what’s going on? Is the Kong Consortium here to arrest us?”

To be honest, everyone got a little panicky when they were accused at the city gate of having a spy in the group. Now that they were faced with a situation wherein the entire villa was surrounded by soldiers with loaded guns, it was impossible for them not to panic.

They were doctors who treated patients and saved lives. They might be able to remain calm at the operating table, but they had really never experienced a situation like this before.

Everyone knew the Kong Consortium soldiers were not kidding. Something must have happened!

So when they heard the knocking on the door, everyone looked at one another and did not dare to open the door.

Wang Jing sighed and said, “If it’s a blessing, it won’t be a disaster. If it’s a disaster, we can’t avoid it. Let’s cooperate with them and see what they want. All of you, stand back so you don’t get injured accidentally.”

With that, Wang Jing was about to open the door when a middle-aged doctor tried to stop him. This middle-aged doctor wanted to volunteer to open the door, but he hesitated for a moment and did not have the courage to speak up.

Liang Ce gritted his teeth and prepared to step forward bravely. However, he realized someone else was a step faster than him.

Ren Xiaosu tugged at Wang Jing’s arm and said, “Elder, you’re too old, so don’t burden yourself over such matters. Let me do it instead. Besides, I don’t think there’ll be any danger. If they were really here to arrest us, there wouldn’t be a need to knock so politely. They would’ve already broken in.”

Liang Ce and the others all looked at Ren Xiaosu. They did not expect the person who looked the youngest would suddenly step forward.

Yang Xiaojin also looked at Ren Xiaosu in surprise. However, she did not say anything and got ready for battle.

Ren Xiaosu walked over and opened the villa’s door. When the young man in the black suit outside saw Ren Xiaosu, he said with a smile, “Hello, I’m Pei Wenjin, the person temporarily in charge of the 1st Military Intelligence Division. I apologize for the late visit.”

“May I ask why you’re here?” Ren Xiaosu asked calmly.

“Can I go inside and talk?” Pei Wenjin smiled and said, “It’s a little cold outside.”

“Of course.” Then Ren Xiaosu stepped aside and let him enter.

However, Pei Wenjin did not step into the villa alone. There was also an entire platoon of 30 soldiers following him. These people entered orderly and immediately headed for the various passageways after entering the villa. They stood guard at the positions in a stern manner.

After Pei Wenjin entered the villa, he shook hands with Wang Jing first. “I’ve heard a lot about you, Elder Wang. I hope this visit isn’t too abrupt. Please have a seat. We’ll be here in the villa for some time.”

Pei Wenjin invited Wang Jing to take a seat on the sofa. Ren Xiaosu asked from nearby, “Wasn’t it an officer named Zhong Zhen who entertained us? Where did he go?”

Pei Wenjin said regretfully, “Director Zhong Zhen died in the line of duty just now.”

Ren Xiaosu was stunned. He had only butted in to ask a question, and he did not expect that answer!

Even even Wang Jing could not help but get curious. “We saw him earlier today, so how did he die in the night? What happened exactly?”

Pei Wenjin stared intently into Wang Jing’s eyes and said, “Don’t you know what happened?”

“How would I know?” Wang Jing looked back calmly. He really did not know!

Pei Wenjin examined Wang Jing’s expression and realized he could not get anything out of him. He explained, “An expert sneaked into our Kong Consortium stronghold tonight. After he was discovered by our patrols, he started a massacre. Director Zhong Zhen was rushing over when his vehicle was blown up by the enemy’s sniper rifle. He died inside the vehicle.”

This time, Ren Xiaosu was speechless. He had just blown up a vehicle to use it to catch the attention of the Kong Consortium’s troops, but he actually ended up killing Zhong Zhen.

Zhong Zhen was really too fucking unlucky!

As a result, Pei Wenjin took over as temporary director of the 1st Military Intelligence Division under the Kong Consortium’s orders. Ren Xiaosu knew the 1st Military Intelligence Division was responsible for overseeing internal affairs, while the 2nd Military Intelligence Division took charge of external affairs. Meanwhile, the 3rd Military Intelligence Division was purely a violent group that provided firepower support.

Pei Wenjin looked at everyone. “As such, we have to thoroughly investigate the reason behind such a major incident that happened in the stronghold. You all have just arrived at Stronghold 31, and an incident like that has already happened. Although we feel that everyone here is a proper doctor, we still have to carry out a routine investigation.”

Wang Jing nodded. “We understand that, but I guarantee that none of the doctors in this villa are criminals as Director Pei suggested.”

“Alright, it is best if you can understand.” Pei Wenjin stood up and said to the soldiers in the villa, “Search all the rooms and check for any suspicious items.”

The soldiers rushed forward and rummaged through cabinets and drawers as they conducted the search. Ren Xiaosu roughly had an idea that they were looking for a sniper rifle.

However, Ren Xiaosu was curious. If something as big as a sniper rifle were hidden in the villa, it would definitely be very conspicuous. It would be impossible for a criminal to carry it back after using it, and Pei Wenjin should also understand this logic. No matter how valuable a sniper rifle was, no one would carry it with them at a time like this.

After a while, the soldiers upstairs all gathered downstairs. The platoon commander reported, “No suspicious items found.”

“Search the surrounding area within a kilometer and see if there are any suspicious items,” Pei Wenjin said slowly and walked out of the villa.

Wang Jing followed Pei Wenjin, with Ren Xiaosu catching up to them from behind.

Seeing that Director Pei was taking a walk around the villa premises after stepping out, Wang Jing could not figure out what Pei Wenjin was doing.

Ren Xiaosu saw Pei Wenjin carefully looking at the windowsills outside each window. He now understood that Pei Wenjin was trying to see if anyone had climbed out of the villa.

The windowsills were covered in dust. As long as someone stepped on one, there would definitely be clues left behind. Furthermore, this was a detail very few people would notice. Who would check such places for no reason?

Pei Wenjin took a look at several windows but he did not check every one of them.

Yang Xiaojin thought about it for a moment and realized the windowsills Pei Wenjin was checking on were also very particular. They were all located in the blind spots of the sentries that were keeping watch.

If anyone tried to leave the villa quietly after discovering the location of the sentries, they could only do it via a few of the windows.

Looking at Pei Wenjin’s expression, he was clearly very confident about finding some clues. Previously, Yang Xiaojin was wondering why there would be a blind spot of almost 60 degrees between the two hidden sentries. She had felt it was way too unprofessional.

They could clearly have the entire villa under surveillance from a distance if they had positioned the sentries in a staggered formation.

But only now did Yang Xiaojin realize this was a trap by the other party.

Pei Wenjin slowly walked towards the kitchen window where Ren Xiaosu exited and entered from. He examined the dust on it so carefully it almost looked like he wanted to stick his face in!

Yang Xiaojin looked at Ren Xiaosu quietly and got ready to pull out her gun at any moment.

But a second later, Pei Wenjin smiled as he looked up and said, “It seems like all of you are really law-abiding doctors.”

There was not a trace of any disturbance on the windowsill. That was because Ren Xiaosu had noticed the trap before he left the villa.
