Twisted Dreams-Chapter 213 - 183: The Power Behind Zhao Wu

Just as Yang Xiao was enjoying a late-night snack with the ’beauty’, his ears suddenly perked up.

Someone was outside, walking in perfect synchrony, clearly professionally trained, even their breathing was in unison.

A knock on the door sounded.

Yang Xiao put down his chopsticks and raised his glass to the ’beauty’:

"Looks like we have new guests."

Yang Xiao drank a glass of red wine and walked to the door.

Who could it be?

Sheriff?

Or Military Officer?

It doesn’t matter.

Yang Xiao opened the door.

He looked ahead in astonishment.

It wasn’t a sheriff, nor a military officer, but a group of weird people.

They were wearing white protective suits, goggles, masks, and rain boots.

Each of these people exuded a cold aura.

Yang Xiao frowned.

It looks like it’s time to flee, these people are obviously from some Extraordinary Organization.

He alone certainly couldn’t deal with them.

The weird people ignored Yang Xiao and walked into the room.

They looked at the dismembered corpse parts that had been pieced together crookedly, without showing any normal emotions like fear or disgust.

The weird people glanced disdainfully at Yang Xiao, took out a body bag, and packed the ’monster’ into it.

Some of them skillfully sprayed cold water on the floor, poured potassium iodide and hydrogen peroxide.

Some cleaned the bloodstains, then covered it with a layer of white cloth, and poured radish juice.

Everyone was busy, leaving Yang Xiao to one side.

Yang Xiao gradually understood.

The boss pampered him too much.

After he killed someone, the boss would dispatch specialized personnel to clean up the scene.

"What exactly is his identity?"

In Yang Xiao’s eyes, Li Yang’s identity was becoming increasingly mysterious.

Clearly looking much younger than him, yet having so many powerful followers.

The important thing is that whether it’s the boss or these weird people, they seem to have long been accustomed to his power and had a clear system in place.

You must know that it was only after the Blood Moon event that the Extraordinary started to appear gradually, Zhi Qiluo became good during that time.

These people, along with his boss, were clearly the ones who existed before the Blood Moon.

Yang Xiao grinned, unable to suppress a series of strange laughs.

The Cleaners were attracted by Yang Xiao’s laughter and turned their heads in unison to look.

"Hahaha, this world is just too interesting!

Look at you guys, you are so interesting!

And me, I am also very interesting, hahahahaha..."

Yang Xiao clutched his stomach, pointing at the cleaners and laughing.

The cleaners ignored this madman and continued with their work.

At this moment, the phone rang.

It was from Li Yang.

The message contained only a few words, an address.

...

At night, in the deputy general manager’s office of the Golden Scale Seafood Export Industry Company.

This was Zhao Wu’s office.

An album frame was placed on the office table.

The frame held a photo of Zhao Wu and his wife taken at their wedding, both smiling innocently and brightly.

Zhao Wu and his wife had quite an age gap. Zhao Wu was almost forty, while his wife had just graduated from college.

In fact, they had known each other for many years but didn’t meet in person until the year she graduated from college.

Zhao Wu had risen through fighting and bravado, yet he liked intellectuals.

Deprived of the chance to study in his youth, he later funded a group of impoverished students, supporting them through college.

Zhao Wu’s wife was among them.

After learning about Zhao Wu’s identity, his wife launched a fierce romantic pursuit.

Zhao Wu, who had never experienced the taste of love in his life, succumbed quickly.

In no time, they were married and had a wedding ceremony.

At this time, Zhao Wu’s wife was wearing a secretary’s outfit, lying on the office table with their wedding photo in front of her.

A short, chubby middle-aged man stood behind Zhao Wu’s wife, yelling frantically:

"Zhao Wu is a waste!

Without me, would he be where he is today?!

Those idiots seem to forget whose company this is!"

For a little follower, nothing is worse than encountering a boss like Lin Jinlong who is envious and dismissive of talent.

Such a person is shameless, coveting the benefits Zhao Wu brought, yet resenting Zhao Wu’s abilities.

For Lin Jinlong, this business has already become the pinnacle of his life.

But this was Lin Jinlong’s ceiling, not Zhao Wu’s limit.

Zhao Wu wanted to do better, to continue the coastal shipping and gambling ship business.

Lin Jinlong did not dare, but those below all wanted to get rich following Zhao Wu, Lin Jinlong felt his status threatened. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Thus, today’s tragedy unfolded.

Lin Jinlong finally made a move against Zhao Wu.

Zhao Wu’s wife cooperatively screamed:

"How could Zhao Wu be as formidable as Brother Long, he’s totally useless!"

Lin Jinlong was thrilled by this statement.

He chose to be in Zhao Wu’s office, in front of Zhao Wu’s wedding photo, with Zhao Wu’s wife, just to humiliate Zhao Wu in this way.

As if this sleazy behavior could disdain Zhao Wu’s personal charm from a superior standpoint.

Just as Lin Jinlong was about to reach his zenith, the door was suddenly flung open.

"Boss!"

It was Lin Jinlong’s bodyguard, Ah Xiang.

Lin Jinlong cursed irritably:

"You Dam-...."

Halfway through the curse, Lin Jinlong fell silent.

Ah Xiang had a knife lodged in his neck and was wobbling, then he collapsed to the ground.

Immediately after, a man in a white suit holding a phone walked in.

"Ahhh!!!!"

The woman let out a piercing scream, shoving Lin Jinlong behind her, squatting on the floor in a flurry.

Yang Xiao, holding his phone, smiled and said:

"Continue, I love watching."

Lin Jinlong swallowed hard:

"Brother, who are you?"

Yang Xiao’s expression turned grim:

"I said, continue."

The entire room seemed to chill, as if engulfed by a presence of coldness.

Lin Jinlong knew this was called killing intent.

He had never felt such strong killing intent before.

He racked his brains, unable to understand which deity he had offended!

Lin Jinlong pulled up the woman, staring at Yang Xiao, and said in a deep voice:

"Alright."

The woman had never seen such a perverted scene, crying out in refusal, trembling severely in fear.

"Shut up!" Lin Jinlong slapped the woman across the face.

Ignoring the crying woman, he forcibly pinned her down.

Yang Xiao chuckled:

"You really continued."

A bloody knife suddenly flew over.

It sliced off Lin Jinlong’s nose directly.

"Ah!!!!"

Lin Jinlong clutched his nose, wailing in agony.

Yang Xiao pulled over a chair and sat down:

"Master Wu is coming in a while, wait for him."

Lin Jinlong, clutching his nose, looked at Yang Xiao in disbelief:

"Master Wu? Fifth Brother is not dead?! You’re with Fifth Brother?! How is that possible!"

Yang Xiao said faintly:

"The one who appreciates Master Wu doesn’t want him dead, so Master Wu cannot die."

Lin Jinlong was in total disbelief.

He realized he had never truly understood that subordinate of his.

Zhao Wu turned out to be far more complicated than he’d imagined.

The terrifying assassin in front of him was proof enough.

To have such a powerful killer as a subordinate, Fifth Brother surely had a formidable backer.

Since Zhao Wu had such a formidable admirer, why did he willingly and painstakingly work under him?

Was it, perhaps, because of the code of brotherhood he mentioned?

Lin Jinlong was full of regret.

Had he known Fifth Brother had such capabilities, he should have listened to him.

Kept fighting, continued growing the company, rather than reveling in his current achievements.

Lin Jinlong looked at the woman trembling and lying on the table, realizing in his heart, that it was all too late.
