Chapter 231 Lin Zhou was shocked: I've seen this person before! Seven years ago!
The busy tone of the phone call being disconnected sounded particularly jarring in the empty living room.
Lin Zhou's knuckles turned pale from gripping the phone so tightly.
ten minutes.
Less than ten minutes had passed.
A deep, furious roar of an engine came from the winding mountain road outside the villa.
It's not one car.
Instead, it consisted of twenty full-size, all-black, bulletproof off-road vehicles.
Like a black torrent of steel, it instantly blocked all the entrances and exits of the villa.
The screech of brakes shattered the morning tranquility.
The car doors opened in unison.
Nearly a hundred fully armed Shadow Soldiers, dressed in black tactical vests, filed out.
Their movements were extremely swift and professional.
In less than thirty seconds, they completely took control of all the high points and blind spots of the suburban villa.
The air was filled with a suffocating, chilling aura of iron and blood.
Second floor stairwell.
Su Qingge had just walked down the street holding Nuonuo's hand.
She was also carrying a simple suitcase.
When she saw the group of heavily armed men in black outside through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows.
He froze on the spot.
The suitcase handle slipped from her hand.
It slammed onto the wooden floor with a "bang".
This is not a typical commercial dispute involving security.
Even if Su Qingge didn't understand the rules of the underworld, she could tell at a glance.
These people exude a deadly aura that comes from someone who has seen blood.
"Lin Zhou..."
Su Qingge's voice trembled uncontrollably.
She instinctively shielded Nuonuo tightly behind her.
"What exactly is going on outside?"
Lin Zhou took a deep breath.
He strode quickly to the top of the stairs with his long, powerful legs.
Without any hesitation, he hugged Su Qingge and Nuonuo tightly.
He felt a slight tremor emanating from his wife's frail body.
Lin Zhou knew he couldn't keep it a secret any longer.
"I'm sorry, my wife."
Lin Zhou's voice was extremely low and hoarse.
It carries a deep sense of guilt and a heartbreaking tenderness.
I lied to you just now.
"These arrangements outside are not meant to protect against Zhou Lixing's remaining followers."
"Zhou Lixing was silenced in the detention center last night."
Su Qingge suddenly raised her head.
Those beautiful peach blossom eyes were filled with extreme horror.
"Silenced? In the detention center?"
"right."
Lin Zhou looked directly into Su Qingge's eyes.
Tear open the most terrifying truth hidden in the darkness without reservation.
"The multi-car pileup that happened seven years ago that destroyed the Lin family."
"The Zhou family is not the mastermind behind this at all."
"The Zhou family is just a dog responsible for keeping watch on the outside."
"The real killer is a top-tier international assassination organization codenamed 'K'."
Lin Zhou gently stroked Su Qingge's cold cheek with his palm.
"And yesterday afternoon."
"The one-eyed killer who orchestrated the car accident to steal crucial evidence."
"Just stand outside the kindergarten gate."
"He kept his eyes glued to our daughter."
boom!
Su Qingge felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
My mind went completely blank for a moment.
Intense fear gripped her heart like a cold, icy hand.
A transnational assassination organization!
A cold-blooded and ruthless professional killer!
These terrifying words, which only exist in Hollywood movies, are now actually approaching her family in real life!
She was getting close to her most beloved daughter!
"Then... what should we do now?"
Su Qingge gripped Lin Zhou's clothes tightly, tears streaming uncontrollably down her face.
"Don't be afraid."
Lin Zhou's eyes were incredibly resolute.
"Uncle Chen has already arranged an underground safe house in Xishan."
"That's the doomsday fortress that the Lin family built at a cost of one billion."
"As long as you and Nuonuo stay inside, they absolutely cannot break in even if they use heavy weapons."
As they were talking.
The villa gate was quickly pushed open from the outside.
Old Chen walked in, leaning on his golden nanmu cane and covered in sweat.
He was also holding a tactical tablet with the highest level of encryption.
"Young Master!"
Old Chen's face was extremely pale.
"Based on the physical characteristics you provided and that red cross mark."
"The Lin family's hacking team has just forcibly breached the top-level bounty database on the dark web."
Old Chen handed the tablet in his hand to Lin Zhou.
The screen displayed an extremely blurry profile picture captured by surveillance cameras.
Blonde hair.
He was wearing a black leather eye patch over his left eye.
There was a centipede-like scar on his cheek.
His right eye gleamed with a cruel, cold light, like that of a vicious wolf.
"Found it!"
Old Chen gritted his teeth, his voice filled with a chilling coldness.
"Code name: Poison Wolf".
"K Organization's top assassin in the Asia-Pacific region."
"The number of political figures and tycoon heads from various countries who died at his hands is too many to count on two hands!"
"It really was him!"
Lin Zhou stared at the face on the screen that he could recognize even if it were ashes.
The murderous intent in his eyes was completely boiling over.
The anger that had been suppressed for seven years almost burned away his reason.
Where is he now?
Lin Zhou asked, enunciating each word clearly.
"Based on the last IP address jump record on the dark web."
Old Chen swiped the screen quickly.
"He killed Zhou Lixing in the detention center last night."
"They had already fled China overnight on a private plane."
"He is currently on the run in an underground casino in Las Vegas."
"Las Vegas".
Lin Zhou gave a cold laugh.
There was no warmth in those deep, peach-blossom eyes.
Purely destructive desires.
"They escaped pretty quickly."
Lin Zhou turned around and looked at Su Qingge, whose face was covered in tears.
He lowered his head and planted a deep kiss on his wife's forehead.
Then, with extreme decisiveness, he let go.
"Uncle Chen arranged for Qingge and Nuonuo to be escorted into Xishan Fortress."
Lin Zhou's tone left no room for argument.
"Young master, aren't you coming with us?"
Old Chen was stunned for a moment, then turned pale with shock.
He grabbed Lin Zhou's arm.
"A son of a wealthy family shouldn't sit under a dangerous roof, young master!"
"You are now the head of the Lin family, how can you personally go on such a risk!"
"I'm not going?"
Lin Zhou strode straight toward the top-secret storage room in the basement of the villa.
"Defense always has weaknesses."
There's no such thing as being able to thief for a thousand days but not be able to guard against thieves for a thousand days.
"Now that these rats from the gutter have already crept up to my doorstep."
"He even dared to look at my daughter with that dirty eye."
Lin Zhou pushed open the heavy alloy door to the basement.
"Then I'll take the initiative."
"Nip this danger in the bud!"
The basement was extremely cold and damp.
Lin Zhou walked to the retinal recognition safe at the deepest part of the room.
"drop--"
The safe opened immediately.
Inside lay a plain black passport without any nationality markings.
And a custom-made Browning pistol with a matte finish that exudes a deadly chill.
Lin Zhou reached out and put the black passport into his trench coat pocket.
He pulled the bolt with extreme skill.
"Click."
The crisp sound of metal cocking the gun was particularly jarring in the confined basement.
Lin Zhou tucked the pistol into his lower back.
He turned his head.
Watching Old Chen hurriedly chase after them down the stairs.
Those eyes swirled with a chilling, terrifying killing intent.
"Book me the next available flight to an overseas destination."
"I'm going to meet this old friend."
