Chapter 471 - LONG TIME NO SEE



The Chairman\'s head rolled to the side as if he was going to fall asleep or lose consciousness. Hu Lei took out a strange needle-like pin from the neat bun on her head. Without hesitation, she poked a few points on the man to awaken him from his stupor. 

Hu Lei knew acupuncture fairly well, but her skills were not focused on medical help. Her primary focus had always been dark skills. Therefore, when she poked the Chairman, she targeted the points that would bring him maximum pain. 

The old man screamed out. His voice was a little muted because of the grogginess brought about by the drugs in his system, so he could not express the full extent of his pain. 

"Where is he?" Hu Lei asked. 

"I don\'t know. I don\'t know. He just appeared from nowhere." The Chairman got himself under control. "No, I should not say anything about that man. You do not want to mess with that man. Do you think you are tough? Ha, wait until you meet him." He shouted. 

"I will take your warning under consideration." Hu Lei said before taking out her little spray bottle again. 

A puff landed on the Chairman\'s face, and once again, his mind became groggy and his tongue loosened. In the depths of his heart, he wanted to keep his secrets, but he knew it was hopeless. 

"What do you know of Martial Island?" Hu Lei asked. 

The Chairman became tense and bit his lips. He did not want to speak about this matter. He had only found out about Martial Island by accident. More accurately, he had eavesdropped on some of the mysterious man\'s subordinates. 

"Tell me what you know of Martial Island." Hu Lei repeated with a hard voice and another light puff of her concoction. 

The Chairman finally spoke. "It is the mecca for people who are interested in improving their bodies. In that place, they favour combat strength. They hold a lot of championships to determine who is the strongest." 

Hu Lei and Zhong Feng looked at one another. It was in line with the message Kaito sent to them. But they did not want information that they already knew. They wanted to learn secrets that could help them find Kaito. 

"What else?" Hu Lei asked. 

The Chairman hesitated before answering. "I heard rumours that people in that place have a longer lifespan. Old age comes slowly, and they are not vulnerable to normal diseases. But they are just rumours. How could there be something so good?"

Once again the couple looked at each other. They knew that the words were truthful because of the drugs, but like the Chairman, they wondered about the validity of the information. If there was a possibility of a longer life, would the world not go crazy for it?

Hu Lei turned back and sprayed another puff of the drug on the Chairman. His mind became even more troubled as he struggled to maintain a grasp of the psychedelic images flowing through his mind. Hu Lei\'s voice became distant, but he also found that the sound was like an anchor. 

"How do we get in touch with the man behind the International Health Alliance? Respond clearly. A grown man cannot withstand five doses without losing his mind." Hu Lei\'s voice was calm, but it pulled in the inebriated man. 

The Chairman answered, his mind holding on to that voice. "I used to have a number to contact him. But it is not useful anymore. He already abandoned us. We could not help him resolve his problem, so he saw no need to keep us around." 

Hu Lei became tense. "What did he want to know? What was his problem?" 

She felt like she was at the cusp of everything. However, before she could learn the answer, she heard a distinctive pop and whizzing sound in the air. She recognised this sound as that of a bullet being discharged from a silenced gun. 

"Duck!" She shouted at Zhong Feng. 

As they both rolled behind the bed, there was the distinctive sound of a window breaking, and the bullet hitting the Chairman. Hu Lei cursed. She peered around the corner of the bed and looked at the window. There was no indication of another shot. 

Unfortunately, the Chairman was dead. The bullet had penetrated his skull perfectly. She felt angry at the disruption at the critical minute and the loss of a valuable witness. She wanted to scream in frustration. 

"I am going to check it out." Hu Lei whispered to Zhong Feng. 

"No, it is too dangerous. We will find another way." Zhong Feng said. 

"Don\'t worry. I think it is a targeted kill. And I will not take risks. I have you and Xiao Bao. I will not do anything to jeopardise my life." Hu Lei said.

"Xiao Lei…" The man protested. 

Hu Lei kissed Zhong Feng\'s lips lightly. "You promised to listen to me. Clear out the property. Grab what you can from his phone and computers and get everyone out immediately. We do not want to be caught on the scene if anyone saw the shooter." 

Without waiting, she rushed to the window and looked through it from the side. She discovered the shooter perched on a large tree within the property with a sniper gun on his shoulder. He did not look like he was trying to escape. 

If anything, he seemed to be waiting. 

Hu Lei almost cursed as she opened the window and looked at the smug face of the shooter. The man smiled and beckoned with a look of superiority. She gritted her teeth in anger when she remembered their last fight on the ship. 

"It is Frank. He won\'t kill me." Probably. "Clear out the house." She said to Zhong Feng because he was right behind her, unwilling to leave. 

The words did not comfort Zhong Feng. He felt a possessive wave of jealousy flood his heart after hearing what Hu Lei said. He could not tell why Hu Lei was confident that Frank would not kill her. He did not want his wife associating with strange men. 

"Go!" Hu Lei prompted him again.

Then, she opened the window and stepped out through the narrow gap. She paused on the window sill for a while before jumping down to the ground. She landed in a crouch. Since it was the first floor, she was not afraid of the distance, even in her diminished condition. 

She walked to the tree and arrived just as Frank jumped down from his perch. 

"Long time no see, my dear," Frank said teasingly. 

"Not long enough, pirate." Hu Lei responded.
