Chapter 156 Detective Cai Xiangdong
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Xu Yixue and Ye Xiaoning watched Xu Fan’s technique, and their hearts were suddenly filled with lament.
They had thought Xu Fan was going to concoct some sort of diet pill, but it turned out he was just massaging his abdomen with his hands. This meant their big weight loss plans hadn’t even been voiced before they fell through.
Xu Yixue imagined in her mind what it would be like if she overate and Xu Fan had to help her lose weight. Wouldn’t his large hands be gently massaging and kneading her lower abdomen?
As she thought about it, Xu Yixue’s face turned red first.
The plan for losing weight was put on hold, and there was no way she could let Xu Fan touch her body.
Xu Yixue thought about the delicious food drifting further away from her, and she felt a pang of pain in her heart.
“Xu Fan, go play with Tongtong for a while, I’ll clean up the table,” Ye Xiaoning stood up and said to Xu Fan, then tied on an apron, ready to work.
Compared to Xu Yixue, Ye Xiaoning was actually more like a mom, capable of handling everything. No wonder Tongtong and Ye Xiaoning seemed as close as mother and daughter.
Xu Fan nodded, stood up, picked up Tongtong, and returned to the kawaii-decorated little room Tongtong had set up.
In the dining room, Xu Yixue and Ye Xiaoning were cleaning up the messy table, completely unaware that on top of a building opposite them, a man with gold-rimmed glasses was holding a military-grade night vision telescope, peering through the window, and had locked onto the room where Xu Yixue was.
It was Detective Cai Xiangdong.
After following Xu Yixue to Kowloon New City, Cai Xiangdong couldn’t enter the complex due to the lack of access control, but being an educated returnee from America, he immediately came up with a plan.
Directly opposite Kowloon New City was a budget hotel, and Cai Xiangdong quickly rented a room on one of the upper floors there.
Cai Xiangdong knew that if Xu Yixue went home, she would definitely turn on the lights first, so he pulled out his phone and recorded all of the units that lit up when Xu Yixue arrived. Then he took out the military-grade binoculars he had left in his car and started carefully searching for Xu Yixue’s residence.
Having some understanding of Xu Yixue’s character and considering her status and capabilities, Cai Xiangdong was 90% sure that Xu Yixue would live in a unit facing the sun. Therefore, he ignored the half of the units on the shady side, focusing exclusively on the sun-facing units that had their lights turned on during this period.
Unfortunately, what Cai Xiangdong didn’t know was that Xu Yixue’s home had a smart home system installed. Ye Xiaoning had already controlled all the lights in the house to turn on with her phone from Xu Fan’s car.
This meant Cai Xiangdong’s strategy had failed. In the time he had gathered information on the five households that had their lights on, he had carefully checked each one and found that Xu Yixue wasn’t in any of them.
However, Cai Xiangdong was not discouraged. Since he couldn’t rely on the time the lights were turned on to find her, he would simply search each household one by one.
Xu Yixue definitely wouldn’t live on the lowest or highest floors, so Cai Xiangdong excluded the bottom three and the top two floors. Additionally, there were many units in the complex that were dark, so after considering everything, there weren’t too many corresponding residences.
After recording the households that had their lights on, Detective Conan Cai Xiangdong picked up his binoculars and started a sweeping search one by one. Knowing that the four of them had come straight back to the complex without stopping to eat, Cai Xiangdong paid particular attention to the kitchens of the complex.
Fate favors the diligent. After half an hour of meticulous searching, Cai Xiangdong finally identified a few suspected units. In the process, he also spied a young couple that had started being intimate without closing their window.
In the past, Cai Xiangdong would have taken the time to enjoy the live performance, but he had pressing matters to attend to today, so he had to forego his pleasure and continue to follow the movements within the suspected units.
Just now, Cai Xiangdong finally saw a familiar figure, Xu Yixue’s personal secretary and the second-in-command at Xinghai Media—Ye Xiaoning.
At this moment, she was carrying a stack of plates into the kitchen.
Hot on her heels was the irresistibly attractive Xu Yixue.
“Dammit, I’ve finally found you two bitches! Just you wait!” Cai Xiangdong spat a thick loogie onto the ground, feeling a surge of relief in both body and spirit.
Immediately, he took out his phone and reached out to the two assassins from the Black Glove Family vacationing in Zhonghai, America.
Within just half an hour, they had acquired the necessary equipment for the job from the local black market, just waiting for Cai Xiangdong to send them the target’s location.
“Halo. I’ve sent you the location of the target, you just need to kill the guy, and tie up the two women for me,” Cai Xiangdong issued a sinister chuckle, speaking in fluent English to the two Black Glove Family leaders on the phone.
“Ok, leave it to us,” a gloomy voice on the phone, an English-speaking foreigner, replied to Cai Xiangdong.
Cai Xiangdong hung up the phone and began transferring money.
The Black Glove Family’s fees were much higher than Brother Long’s family’s rates.
But you get what you pay for, and the Black Glove Family’s assassins were definitely worth Cai Xiangdong’s entire year’s salary.
Being fired by Xinghai Media didn’t bother Cai Xiangdong at all since it was the allure of Xu Yixue’s beauty that had brought him there in the first place. If it weren’t for Xu Yixue’s stunning looks, which ensnared half his soul, with his experience and capabilities, he could have found a job at a company that paid twice what Xinghai Media did.
But now that Xu Yixue had decided to burn bridges with him, Cai Xiangdong was ready to explode.
Dammit, if I don’t take care of you two chicks today, you won’t realize the vastness of the heavens and the breadth of the earth.
Muscles twisted on Cai Xiangdong’s face as he looked at Xu Yixue in the kitchen across the building, his heart filled with possessive desire.
Ten minutes later, a black SUV pulled up at the entrance of Kowloon New City.
A white man and a black man, both around one meter ninety in height, got out of a cab.
The white man was carrying a guitar case on his back which appeared rather heavy, suggesting that it contained something other than a guitar.
The black man was muscular, the entire structure of his face resembling Tyson, the boxing dominator of America.
Previously, they were members of America’s Delta Force, and they didn’t abandon their old profession upon retirement. They joined the formidable Black Glove Family in America, becoming their lead enforcers.
They had been partners in the squad and remained partners within the Black Glove Family.
The black man was proficient in various fighting techniques, known as an accomplished fighter in the squad, having once killed twelve enemies with his bare hands in East Africa.
The white man, on the other hand, was a famous sniper, holding a glorious record of sniping an enemy platoon from eighteen hundred meters in the desert.
Now, although they’d come to Yan Country, a land where even bounty hunters dared not tread, their hearts were not fearful in the slightest.
Because of their unwavering confidence in their own abilities.
