Chapter 224: Chapter 224: Assassinate Chu Zhongtian
“Just a piece of trash, kill him directly and be done with it. Is there really any need to ask me?”
For some reason, his tone did not carry the slightest hint of murderous intent, yet it inexplicably filled those who heard it with dread.
“Yes! I know what to do!” The subordinate nodded earnestly and fearfully, ready to leave.
“Wait, has the person been found?” the man suddenly asked carelessly.
The subordinate grew even more afraid, “Not yet, but rest assured, we are intensifying our search.”
“Humph, if you can’t find a child, what use are you to me?”
“Master, please give us another chance!” The subordinate was so frightened he dared not even breathe heavily.
The man slightly raised his eyes, revealing a pair of narrow and stunning phoenix eyes, yet they were as black as the depths of a cold pond, “Remember, I do not tolerate trash by my side.”
“Yes.”
“Get out.”
“Yes!” The subordinate immediately left, and only after stepping outside did he realize he had been scared into a cold sweat.
…
Soon, an assassin in B City received a mission handed down from above.
Assassinate Chu Zhongtian!
In the dead of night, many police officers stood guard outside Chu Zhongtian’s hospital room.
No one could get close to Chu Zhongtian. Both doctors and nurses had to undergo strict inspections before entering.
Then, after a night of emergency treatment, Chu Zhongtian’s condition had stabilized considerably, and he was no longer in life-threatening danger.
Yet, just as dawn was breaking, a doctor went in once again to examine him.
This was a renowned doctor in the hospital and the chief physician for Chu Zhongtian’s case.
It was he who had been tirelessly treating Chu Zhongtian through the previous night.
Therefore, seeing him, the police merely conducted a routine check before letting him through.
The doctor, wearing black-framed glasses, entered the room calmly, examined Chu Zhongtian meticulously and with expertise, and then slowly, administered an injection of a potion.
After the doctor left, Chu Zhongtian’s condition seemed very normal, and while he was sleeping, he even seemed to have a pleasant dream, the corners of his mouth revealing a slight smile.
However, it wasn’t long before the dreaming Chu Zhongtian suddenly tilted his head, blood trickled from his mouth, and he was completely lifeless…
…
By the time Mo Jun and the others received the news, Chu Zhongtian was already dead!
Chu Zhongtian had actually been murdered!
This news astonished them completely.
Shang Shi explained in a low voice, “It is said that the killer disguised himself as the attending doctor and injected Chu Zhongtian with poison. Currently, the composition of the poison is being examined, and efforts are being made to capture the killer.”
Bai Lang scoffed at this, “This isn’t the work of an ordinary killer, is it? It seems like they won’t be able to catch him.”
Shang Shi nodded, “Yes, all the surveillance has been tampered with, and the killer has left no trace behind. Even his face-changing technique is very sophisticated; he certainly isn’t an ordinary assassin.”
Shang Shi’s last use of the word ‘assassin’ made it clear that they all realized the skillfulness of the enemy.
“Could it have been the Ansheng Group that sent someone?” Yun Long asked directly.
“Definitely them!” Lin Feng said furiously, “They must have been afraid that Chu Zhongtian would betray them, so they silenced him by killing him.”
Mo Jun was equally infuriated, “Does this mean the trail has gone cold?”
She had thought she was finally on the verge of finding the child, but then Chu Zhongtian died just like that.
And she didn’t even know where the Ansheng Group was located.
Even if she wanted to seek revenge, she had nowhere to begin…
Hao Yansen suddenly said in a deep voice, “How could the trail be cold? Now that we know who the hidden hand behind this is, we naturally have a chance to find them. Send the order down, spare no expense, look for information on the Ansheng Group!”
