CHAPTER 433: CHAPTER 431: ONCE MY DEBTS ARE REPAID, WE’RE DONE

Jiang Yun returned to the room and discovered that his good friend, Baldhead, was missing.

"Damn it!"

He immediately took out his phone to make a call.

But the person on the other end was slow to answer.

Beep beep—

Just as he was about to leave the room, he heard a sound from the safe. As part of the Secret Gate’s management, he keenly sensed something unusual inside and cautiously approached to inspect it.

Inside was an alarm.

"Whew—I thought it was a bomb!"

This bastard!

Taking out the alarm, he noticed a box and a note pressed underneath, giving Jiang Yun a bad feeling.

He opened the note, which read: I’m doing what I need to do, and some things only I must do!

"Foolish!"

Jiang Yun accidentally knocked over the box on the ground, revealing a small, exquisite bugging device inside.

Memories flashed through his mind.

Jiang Yun’s eyes widened in shock.

"This is......"

.....

W Country.

Si Yuhuan had been busy all day and had just laid down to check his phone.

He saw a message from Xinxin, which was then retracted.

He didn’t see what it was and didn’t care to respond.

Instead, he found himself lost in thought over his conversation with Jian Xi.

He sent a message: Are you okay!

A red exclamation mark glared next to the big letters.

Undoubtedly, he had been blocked.

"Ungrateful wretch!" Si Yuhuan muttered and tossed the phone aside, just as he heard a knock on the door.

"Director Si, there’s a big problem."

Yan Qing nodded from outside.

The door opened.

Revealing Si Yuhuan’s extremely displeased handsome face, "Come in and speak."

Yan Qing was sweating profusely.

He didn’t want to disturb Director Si’s rest, but it was truly a massive issue!

"Jiang Yun wants to see you."

"Xinxin’s trusted operative?"

Yan Qing nodded, "Yes! It’s him!"

"Let him in then."

As soon as the words were out, Jiang Yun eagerly burst in from outside.

"Director Si really knows how to pick a place!"

He had rushed here without stopping.

Si Yuhuan, holding his chin with one hand, fiddling with his phone, didn’t even spare a glance, "Speak your mind directly."

"Baldhead is dead!"

Si Yuhuan raised an eyebrow, "You’re quite pleased, aren’t you? He only did this suicidal task because you manipulated him, and he died to give you this."

The eyes of the seven-foot-tall man reddened at this moment.

Jiang Yun angrily tossed the small box in his hand to Si Yuhuan.

Si Yuhuan caught it and held it steadily.

Upon opening it, he saw a cutting-edge crystal-embedded bugging device.

"He traded his life to get this for you! Si Yuhuan, you must be very proud now?"

"You’re excellent at inciting people! In terms of ruthlessness, none of us who came from the Secret Gate are your match! The famous Director Si surely lives up to the name, making people willing to die for you."

"Isn’t it his stupidity?"

Si Yuhuan sneered coldly, utterly dismissing Jiang Yun’s moral criticism.

Seeing Jiang Yun’s face gradually darkening, "Si Yuhuan—"

"Instead of getting angry with me, why don’t you think about why your good brother entrusted this to me before he died, and not you!"

Si Yuhuan raised his sharp gaze, and his dark pupils exerted an invisible pressure, forcing submission.

Jiang Yun had never felt such a strong sense of oppression from anyone, not even from the former Fu Wenxin!

"It’s my incompetence." He bowed his head.

Yan Qing gestured, "Since the item has been delivered, you can leave."

Daring to speak like this to Director Si and still leaving unscathed, he was truly lucky.

Jiang Yun took a deep breath, gave Si Yuhuan a long look, and walked away with large strides.

He stopped at the door, suddenly motionless, "That venomous woman, Xinxin, it would be best if Director Si dealt with her soon, or I fear I won’t be able to control myself and kill her."

"Do you have the guts to kill her and still stand here saying such things?"

Si Yuhuan spoke with disdain.

Jiang Yun’s eyes turned red with anger, "You’re too arrogant!"

"Arrogance has its merits!"

That sentence completely thwarted Jiang Yun, and he dropped his arms, "Let me avenge Baldhead, and after it’s done, the Secret Gate will disappear forever, and I’ll leave too."

"Xinxin is my woman, do you think I would help you do such a thing?"

Jiang Yun laughed, "Director Si, do you believe your own words?"

Mockery flashed in his eyes, "Such trash, it’s unlikely you’d even glance at her."

An outsider knew he would never truly care for Xinxin, yet the woman he cared most for thought he was blind, accepting anyone!

Si Yuhuan raised an eyebrow, "Go back and wait for my message."

No more unnecessary words.

The collaboration had already been reached.

Si Yuhuan drew a cigarette from nowhere and lit it, squinting as he examined the signal receiver in his hand carefully.

Yan Qing gasped when he saw it, "Is this the latest bugging device stolen by the Secret Gate when they assassinated that international scientific genius?"

A year ago, the Secret Gate had killed a top international expert in precision instrumentation. That man had silently, in his spare time, created an ingenious miniaturized bugging device that amazed everyone. The device was rumored to be the size of a grain of rice, could be embedded in the human body, caused slight pain, couldn’t be removed within four hours, and afterward, would fuse with the skin, becoming the most sophisticated tool for eavesdropping.

At the time, the scientist merely proposed this concept.

Unexpectedly, it had been created.

And was secretly hidden by the Secret Gate.

More accurately, it was hidden by Baldhead, not even reaching Fu Wenxin.

In the Secret Gate, people were truly disunited, daring to do anything!

Yan Qing understood why Jiang Yun said his brother traded his life for this device.

Based on his prior guess, it must have been this fellow who went after Xinxin for revenge, fought with her, and during the scuffle, quietly embedded the device in her skin tissue.

Maybe he didn’t expect Xinxin to be so strong, and he ended up being killed instead.

"Director Si, with this device, you’ll know exactly where Fourth Lord is!"

That’s right!

Jian Sirun didn’t just quietly leave a letter and depart from China.

Rather, he suddenly vanished without a trace.

The previous night, he had met with Si Yuhuan and said some strange things, which still left Si Yuhuan in doubt.

In the blink of an eye, Jian Sirun disappeared completely.

It couldn’t help but make him suspect that Jian Sirun met with an incident!

For this, he kept Xinxin by his side, trying to find clues about Jian Sirun. During this time, he did discover some traces, but due to grandfather’s matters, it got interrupted.

"Actually, I quite feel it’s undeserving for you! You’ve been tirelessly working for Madam, and she treats you like this, colluding with Fu Shengyuan... truly excessive!"

Si Yuhuan took a deep breath, "What I owe the Jian Family, once repaid, there will be no more connections."
