Chapter 32: The Clues Regarding His Parents' Deaths

Chapter 32 The Clues Regarding His Parents’ Deaths

The old factory had a specialized fighting arena. Usually, Ye Qingdie would also have combat training on it.

Right now, Xu Mo was wearing battle armor and holding a blade. Sweat kept on dripping profusely off his forehead, and all of his bones felt as if they were falling apart.

Standing opposite Xu Mo, Seth was holding a shield in his left hand and a heavy sword in his right. However, the finishing for the blade’s edge wasn’t completed because they were worried there’d be an accident during training. He was also wearing thick battle armor to avoid accidental injuries.

The fighting area was rounded up. Right now, Ye Qingdie was sitting extremely comfortably on a soft chair below, watching their fight. It seemed like she enjoyed watching Xu Mo being tortured very much.

RUMBLE-!

Seth’s body charged forward and the fighting arena trembled a little. The shield in his hand smashed straight for Xu Mo.

He was two meters tall and specialized in strength, not so in speed. As a result, he needed reinforcement with a shield.

Xu Mo’s body suddenly fell, the blade in his hand slashing for Seth’s legs. However, Seth’s reaction wasn’t slow at all. He put his shield down to the ground, rubbing against the fighting arena and knocking against Xu Mo’s blade. At the same time, he slashed down his heavy sword. After that, Xu Mo stomped the ground and slid to the side, using his blade to block the heavy sword’s attack. A loud sound rang out and the heavy sword shook so strongly that Xu Mo’s palm felt numb. He almost dropped the blade in his hand but somehow managed not to, given his strength wasn’t weak now. However, Seth didn’t give him any chance to relax as he slashed the heavy sword consecutively. Very soon, Xu Mo was unable to hang on and the blade fell from his grip. Seth stopped attacking as well.

Right now, Xu Mo lay on the floor, panting. His arms were numb and he couldn’t gather any strength.

“Seth, your strength is too strong.” Xu Mo was covered in sweat as he said this.

“We’re in the fighting arena and this restricts your performance. If we were outside, given your agility, I wouldn’t be able to touch you easily,” said Seth. “You don’t specialize in fighting in the arena but are more suitable for life or death huntings.”

Although Seth had a lot of brawn, he wasn’t stupid. After the many rounds of fights, he saw that Xu Mo’s reaction was very quick. However, Xu Mo’s speed and endurance were a lot weaker. He was more specialized in sudden attacks and hunting.

“Seth, go do your stuff,” Ye Qingdie said.

“Alright.” Seth nodded, removed his equipment, and left the arena, while Xu Mo continued to lay there.

Ye Qingdie looked at him and said, smiling, “Can you still do it?”

“Again?” Xu Mo said furiously. “Do you want to give it a try?”

“Mn?” Ye Qingdie was stunned for a moment and then looked at Xu Mo, smiling. “Where do you want to go to try*?”.

“Uh…” Xu Mo looked at Ye Qingdie’s smile, and his head shrank back a little. Sister C actually understood it?

“As expected, you’re just a kid.” Seeing that Xu Mo didn’t dare to carry on the conversation, Ye Qingdie smiled and said, “Today is just the beginning. As a member of the organization, from now on, the organization will put you through special training. Other than getting good at firearms and combat techniques, you’ll also need to understand different combat modes.”

“??” Xu Mo looked at Ye Qingdie. Although there was nothing wrong with her words, but…

“When did I become a member of the organization?” Xu Mo asked, stunned.

Was he automatically included?

“Why? You’ve seen everything, but now you don’t want to take responsibility?” Ye Qingdie stared at Xu Mo and asked.

“…” Xu Mo couldn’t say anything to this. Did he have to join when he had only looked?

“You haven’t told me what organization you guys are from,” said Xu Mo. He trusted Ye Qingdie. After all, Uncle Fang had vouched for her with his life. However, that didn’t mean that he had complete trust in an unknown organization.

Moreover, if he were asked to sacrifice himself, Xu Mo wouldn’t be willing to do that.

He didn’t have such a great resolve.

Ye Qingdie got up, looked at Xu Mo, and said, “Come with me.”

Xu Mo then got down from the fighting arena and followed Ye Qingdie.

The two of them walked up to a huge blackboard. There were densely-packed photos and words on it.

Xu Mo took a look. The words recorded the criminal records of the characters in the photos, and most events were related to human trafficking. He thought of how Uncle Fang had previously tracked down the abduction cases to the church, which caused him to lose his life.

Ye Qingdie pointed to one of the photos that showed Tang Sen, the one who had died in the gambling den yesterday. There was a cross on the photo, indicating that the target was already eliminated.

SS

Tang Sen’s photo had a lead extending out from it, pointing toward another familiar face. It was Cobra.

Cobra was clearly a target to be eliminated as well.

Xu Mo looked at Cobra’s criminal records. There were too many of them to be cited, including murder, loan sharking, and human trafficking. There were no evil deeds he didn’t do. However, to think that someone like this could live so well, left alone by the law enforcement team.

“What do you think our organization looks like?” Xu Mo looked at Xu Mo and asked.

“Law enforcement team?” Xu Mo replied. He seemed to be looking at a crime film from his previous life, with Ye Qingdie introducing the crime cases to him. Compared to the ‘law enforcement teams’ out there, Ye Qingdie’s group was more like a real law enforcement team.

Ye Qingdie was stunned when she heard Xu Mo’s words. She then laughed. This was the first time she had heard someone describe them as such.

However, it was a very suitable description.

“Although it’s a suitable description, I don’t like these three words. Those major characters control the rights in the Subterranean World, and all law and order are decided by them. Are the law enforcement teams really enforcing the law? Or are they controlling the Subterranean World?” Ye Qingdie asked. “As for us, there’s too much darkness in the Subterranean World, so we primarily track down human trafficking cases. Tang Sen and Cobra are both involved in this. There’s a base in the black market for the trafficking of young children.”

Xu Mo was a little moved when he heard Ye Qingdie’s words. Uncle Fang had barged into the church and been shot down because he was treated as a thug. However, who were the people in the church and the people behind them?

Was the law enforcement team really enforcing the law?

“You want to ask what kind of organization we are.” At this moment, Ye Qingdie looked at Xu Mo and said, “I don’t know either. I only know that we’re doing the right thing.”

“How many people are there in the organization?” Xu Mo asked.

“I don’t know. The members in the organization are standalone.” Ye Qingdie continued, “You’ve basically met all those that I know of. As for the others, I don’t know who they are either, nor how many of them there are. The others also don’t know of our existence. The organization seems more like many independent entities and doesn’t stand

out.”

Xu Mo nodded. This was easy to understand. They were an ‘underground’ organization. If they were exposed, they’d be wiped out. If they each knew about each other’s existences, it’d be troublesome if one of them was caught or if there were traitors amongst them.

Of course, Ye Qingdie might not have revealed everything about them to him either.

“I welcome you as a new member of the organization, Young Brother Xu Mo.” Ye Qingdie reached out her hand.

“Did I agree?” Xu Mo asked.

“You’ve seen what you shouldn’t and know what you shouldn’t. What do you think?” Ye Qingdie smiled radiantly and looked at Xu Mo. This made Xu Mo uncontrollably take a step back and asked, “What benefits would I get?”

Ye Qingdie was stunned and then smiled. This kid’s thoughts were very clear.

“The organization will nurture you and help you become strong, providing you with weapons. Don’t these count?” Ye Qingdie looked at him and said, “As for the other benefits, it’ll have to wait until you get a little older.”

“??!

Xu Mo’s gaze looked down from that beautiful face, asking with some anticipation, “Really?”

Ye Qingdie was stunned and then clenched her fists, making crisp sounds as she took a step toward Xu Mo.

“You want me to ‘prostitute’ myself for free?” said Xu Mo while putting out his hands to block in front of him.

Him being the free ‘prostitute’?

This b*stard!

“What benefits do you want?” Ye Qingdie smiled and looked at Xu Mo. This kid wouldn’t take action until there was a clear objective.

“Help me get rid of Cobra first,” said Xu Mo as Cobra was a threat. He wasn’t strong enough, but they were. Hence, he wanted to get help from Ye Qingdie’s group to clear up the threat before him.

Moreover, Cobra himself was one of their targets. This request shouldn’t be considered overboard.

“You’re afraid that he’ll take revenge on you because you killed his subordinates?” Ye Qingdie looked at Xu Mo and said, “You haven’t exposed your identity, so you’ll be safe for now. Moreover, we can’t make a move on cobra for now. He has important leads on him.”

“Leads?” Xu Mo thought of his parents’ death. Who was the one that gave the order to Cobra?

Was the lead Ye Qingdie’s group going after related to this?

“It’s not because of this reason. Cobra had sent his men to kill my parents. Lane and the others were the murderers,” Xu Mo said, his gaze looking toward Ye Qingdie. He wanted to see if she knew anything about this.

Ye Qingdie was stunned for a moment, feeling a little surprised.

“You’re saying that you have a feud with Cobra to begin with. Moreover, the reason you killed Lane at the fighting arena is in fact to seek revenge?” Ye Qingdie asked.

“Mm.” Xu Mo nodded.

“Who are your parents? Why did Cobra kill them?” Ye Qingdie asked.

“My parents were ordinary workers at the munition factory. They seemed to know something and went to the law enforcement team to report. Later on, Cobra sent people over, and I was lucky to survive,” Xu Mo replied.

Ye Qingdie was silent for a moment when she heard Xu Mo’s words. Then, she revealed an excited expression and asked softly, “Which munition factory was it?”

Xu Mo thought about it and said, “I think it’s Warren Munition Factory.”

“Are you sure?” Ye Qingdie’s eyes brightened a little.

“Yes.” Xu Mo nodded. He felt that Ye Qingdie’s reaction seemed a little abnormal.

Ye Qingdie broke into a radiant smile, reaching out her hand and rubbing Xu Mo’s head, saying, “Good boy.”

“???”

Xu Mo glared at Ye Qingdie angrily. Head pat provocation?

Was this something a human would do?

“Wait a minute,” said Ye Qingdie and then left. Xu Mo was a little puzzled. He then perked his ears and saw Ye Qingdie giving Little Qi some instructions. After that, Little Qi walked out of the factory.

Thereafter, Ye Qingdie came back and said to Xu Mo, “Your parents’ death might be involved in a very important lead that is related to the abductions we’ve been trying to track down. As for Cobra, he has been our target since long ago, but it isn’t easy to make a move on him unless one is very strong. Cobra has people behind him.”

Ye Qingdie had told him about this previously. Cobra was a hired blade for some people.

It seemed that the people behind Cobra might involve the higher-ups in the Subterranean World. Hence, it’d take quite a number of people to get rid of Cobra, and the risk would be very high.

“Tell me your address. I’ll get someone to keep an eye on the place. Focus on your training these few days. When the opportunity comes, I’ll inform you when to get rid of Cobra,” Ye Qingdie said to Xu Mo.

Xu Mo nodded. Why did he feel that to get out of the danger concerning Cobra, he might get himself into bigger trouble?
