“Are you sure they’re from Mammon?”

Lin Jingzhan flicked the cigarette ash and asked in a low voice.

“No, it’s just a guess,” Song Jinmin said.

“In this matter, Lin Yi didn’t fight with the foreigners and the Meiguons for long. Most of the time, he was hiding and escaping. Moreover, the ore was very likely lost during his escape.”

“This requires very high reconnaissance abilities. Among the people I know, including us, there are no more than five who have such skills,” said Ace of Hearts.

“But Mammon’s people do have such an ability.”

Ace of Spades, whose real name is Mira, is a blonde, blue-eyed woman with a shm waist, long legs, and an explosive figure. She has a pair of alluring eyes, much like Marvel’s Black Widow, exuding a cold aura. In Lin Jingzhan’s organization, she primarily handles intelligence work and was A-cla.s.s.

Even if they aren’t from Mammon, we can’t underestimate the opponent’s capabilities,” Ace of Clubs said.

Ace of Clubs, whose name is Gayson, is a black man from South Feizhou, standing nearly two meters tall. Beside Mira, he looked like a small mountain, yet he possessed a sharp mind. He was mainly responsible for a.s.sault missions within the organization and was also A-cla.s.s.

“There’s something very strange about this. If it was Mammon or another organization that stole the ore, why didn’t they kill the two of them?” said Ace of Diamonds.

“No one would be so kind as to rob and not kill.”

Ace of Diamonds, whose name is Monica, pales in comparison to Mira in terms of looks and figure. In a crowd, she would only appear ordinary without any striking features.

However, she was once the most outstanding surgeon in the world. Her memory was super strong, and it could even be said that she had a photographic memory. She was also A-cla.s.s.

Monica’s a.n.a.lysis also made the others suspicious. They knew that none of the foreigners were good.

If someone didn’t have a few lives on their hands, they wouldn’t even be considered serious players in the field.

Especially those daring enough to steal Ba.s.s ore; these organizations were all ruthless and merciless. It was indeed unlikely that they would leave anyone alive.

This matter had too many suspicious points, making it difficult for Lin Jingzhan and the others to fully grasp the situation.

But for him, who had stolen the ore wasn’t the main issue.

What mattered was uncovering the mastermind behind this operation.

The people guarding the hospital stayed up all night, and so did the w.a.n.g family.

The w.a.n.g father and son were gathered in the study room. There was a smile in their eyes. There was also a bottle of red wine on the table. The two of them clinked gla.s.ses frequently.

At this moment, a black Audi A8 stopped at the entrance of the w.a.n.g family’s villa. Li Mi tidied his clothes and came to the study.

“Master.”

“How’s the situation at the hospital?”

“It’s been sealed off. There’s no way to get in without the right people.” Li Mi said.

“But according to the current situation, we should be starting the funeral process tomorrow.”

“After such a long time, it’s finally time.” w.a.n.g Tingshan said,

“Keep an eye on what happens next. I want to see what other arrangements Lu Beichen has for this matter.”

“Understood!”

Pi epare a few wreaths and send them to him tomorrow.” w.a.n.g Mian said.

“We’re old friends after all. Now that he’s gone, I have to show him some courtesy.”

“No.” w.a.n.g Tingshan said,

This will arouse suspicion. Let’s not do anything and pretend that this never happened. They can do whatever they want. This will have nothing to do with the w.a.n.g family.”

“It’s a pity that I didn’t kill him myself and couldn’t give him a few wreaths.” “It can’t be helped. Lin Yi’s level is very high. If it wasn’t for your Uncle Chen who shot him twice from behind, who knows what could have killed him.” It had to be said that w.a.n.g Tingshan was a very cautious person. He had handled this matter near-flawlessly.

He didn’t let the people under him do anything out of line and hid themselves well.

However, from the beginning to the end, he had overlooked one thing.

The biggest variable in this matter was Lin Jingzhan!

He was not a reasonable person. He would erase all suspicious targets!

“Alright, as long as he’s dead, I’m satisfied. The rest doesn’t matter.” w.a.n.g Mian said.

“But I don’t want to let him off so easily. I want him to die without any peace!”

Yanjing, Qin Family.

At dawn, the head of the Qin family, Qin Yinglong, sat up on the bed.

As people got older, they got used to waking up early. Moreover, he had developed the habit of waking up early every day to practice boxing. Therefore, at around four o’clock every day, when the sun peeked from the east, he would get up to practice boxing to ensure that his skills remained sharp.

Ring ring ring—

Qin Yinglong had just put on his clothes when his phone rang.

He realized that it was his a.s.sistant.

“What is it?”

Qin Yinglong said in a low voice. He didn’t want anyone to disturb him when he woke up in the morning to practice his boxing. He wanted to be as quiet as possible.

“Something big happened in Yanjing last night. Lin Yi, who had a grudge against the Qin family, died.”

“Huh?”

Qin Yinglong’s expression froze in an instant.

“What did you say? Lin Yi is dead?”

“Many of the higher-ups in the military know about this, but Lu Beichen has

already ordered a lockdown. I heard about it by chance.”

“He’s actually dead…”

This news was too unexpected for Qin Yinglong.

He was a little shocked.

Lin Jingzhan had learned a lot about Lin Yi. With strong backing from Lu Beichen and the Liang family, Lin Yi was undoubtedly a pillar of the next generation in Huaxia.

Now, he had died for no reason. It was too surprising.

“And? Is there any other news?”

“Not for now, everything has been sealed off,” the a.s.sistant replied.

“But he’s dead, and the funeral is expected to be today.”

“Hehe, go ask around and see where they hold the funeral. We have to send some wreaths over no matter what.”

“Okay!”

Other than the Qin family, the other prominent families in Yanjing also learned about Lin Yi’s sacrifice.

Even though Lu Beichen had ordered a news blackout, it was impossible to keep everything completely under wraps.

The influential families had extensive networks and would inevitably hear some news.

Families like the Zhao, Gu, Lu, and Sun, who had previously had conflicts with Lin Yi, all learned of his death.

For a time, there was a storm brewing in Yanjing, and countless people quickly awoke.

On one hand, many felt that their revenge had been achieved and wanted to see Lin Yi off.

On the other hand, his death would likely lead to the decline of Lingyun Group.

For years, they had watched Lin Yi rise, becoming a giant in Huaxia’s semiconductor industry within just two short years.

But with his death, everything would come crashing down!

This would cause a huge impact on the Huaxia semiconductor industry.

The old king was dead, and the new king should be appointed!

This was a great opportunity for the new wave.

Everyone’s eyes started turning red.
