Chapter 4055: Chapter 4074: Trouble at the Huang Family!

"Sorry for the wait!"

Zhang Zhongjiu walked in from outside and sat across from Lin Chen.

Lin Chen held his teacup, laughing: "The tea here is quite good."

Zhang Zhongjiu laughed: "The boss here has connections and can find special tea leaves, so business has been good. If you like, I can get you a card for you guys to come here yourselves."

Lin Chen chuckled: "Just trying it is fine, you know, the tea leaves from our place aren’t bad either. In the end, I’m just an ordinary person; I can’t calm down enough to enjoy the tea."

Zhang Zhongjiu nodded and changed the subject: "As for my aunt’s side, I reckon it will take at least ten days to half a month. You guys can arrange your time freely, and I’m just about to return to work in the East Third District. I’ll notify you when there’s a result."

Lin Chen laughed: "Is the East Third District fun?"

Zhang Zhongjiu smiled: "Why, are you planning to go there for a tour?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Nothing else to do, we’re just tourists now, naturally wherever is fun, that’s where we’ll go."

Zhang Zhongjiu thought for a moment, then reported several place names: "These places in the East Third District are worth visiting, either because they have beautiful scenery or are lively and have characteristics worth exploring. I wouldn’t recommend the other places."

Lin Chen laughed: "Alright, I’ll think about it..."

Before Lin Chen could finish speaking, Zhang Zhongjiu’s watch suddenly began to vibrate intensely.

Zhang Zhongjiu’s expression changed slightly, and he glanced at Lin Chen: "Sorry, I have to take a call."

Zhang Zhongjiu brought the watch close to his ear, listened to a few words, and immediately his expression became serious.

"Alright, I understand, I’ll be back right away."

Zhang Zhongjiu hung up the call and looked up: "There’s been a murder case in the East Third District. It’s quite serious, I need to head back right away."

Lin Chen put down his teacup and stood up with Zhang Zhongjiu: "Then let’s go together!"

The two left the tea house, Zhang Zhongjiu hurried away, while Lin Chen returned to the hotel.

Soon, the four people left the hotel and boarded the air car heading to the East Third District.

Upon reaching the East Third District, the four casually booked a hotel.

Ostensibly, they were tourists visiting, so naturally, they had to make all their actions appear reasonable.

"What should we do now?"

Lin Chen laughed: "We’ll hide in the Linglong Tower while Meishi takes on the appearance of a stranger to investigate the situation. We’ll keep a low profile for safety."

The four had decent strength, but this wasn’t Planet 49; it was Planet 11, where there were plenty of eighth-level martial artists and even more powerful ninth-level martial artists.

Everyone watching the Huang Family were figures from major forces. If Lin Chen and the others got involved, revealing their identities would undoubtedly bring huge trouble.

This was also Lin Chen’s operational principle. They were involved in the matter, but absolutely must not reveal their identities, ensuring no one detected their existence.

Lin Chen summoned Meishi from the Linglong Tower. Ever since Meishi swallowed the Chaos Divine Format, she started evolving, overcoming her previous limitations, now constantly consuming energy and enhancing her evolution.

Lin Chen and his group left Planet 49 and, after delays, stayed long at 472. Meishi never ceased evolving, and now her strength was close to matching a seventh-level warrior, almost catching up with Lin Chen’s progress.

It’s undeniable how simple and crude the process of swallowing and evolving is.

If there are no upper limits, the quicker the swallowing, the faster the evolution, so long as there’s enough energy; it simply never halts.

Understanding the entire situation, Meishi smiled softly: "Leave this matter to me. You can hide in the tower and enjoy the show; I can handle everything."

Lin Chen laughed: "What you need to do isn’t complex. You just need to transform yourself into someone else, enter the Huang Family, and talk with them. I think they should be willing to pay to escape by now."

"If they’re willing, then in a place without surveillance, put them in the Linglong Tower, and you can leave openly."

"Remember this, don’t display any Immortal Dao Techniques in front of others; you’re just an ordinary person negotiating with the Huang Family. As for which person you belong to, let them guess."

Meishi grinned: "This is easy, don’t worry, I’ll make sure it’s done well."

Lin Chen flashed out, directly jumping to a blind spot at the street side previously chosen for lack of surveillance, then sacrificed the Linglong Tower to release Meishi, while he entered the Linglong Tower.

Meishi placed the compact Linglong Tower in her pocket, she had already transformed into an ordinary-looking middle-aged woman.

She quietly left the alley, mingled with the crowd, then took a stretch of road to openly take a fly car to the Huang Family.

The Huang Family manor was located at the city’s northern edge, where numerous wealthy families resided.

Meishi alighted the vehicle at a stretch without surveillance, then strolled to the manor entrance unhurriedly.

Meishi’s footsteps suddenly halted. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"There are quite a few police cars parked at the Huang Family entrance..."

Lin Chen, along with the others in the Linglong Tower, used Water Mirror Technique to clearly observe the scene at the mansion entrance.

Numerous police cars with flashing lights parked outside, plenty of Inspection Bureau agents surrounding the entrance, blocking it entirely.

Inspection Bureau?

Lin Chen furrowed his brow: "Perhaps we’re late, the Huang Family’s already done for?"

"Meishi, aren’t there people watching the excitement around? Go and find out."

Meishi walked up to the crowd observing nearby. There’s no denying that people are naturally curious; it’s the same everywhere.

While the Inspection Bureau agents stood around the entrance, some meters away stood a mass of onlookers.

Meishi blended into the crowd, without having to speak, those surrounding naturally discussed, and those informed were eager to flaunt their knowledge.

Lin Chen and the others also heard the onlookers’ chatter, their expressions momentarily surprised.

"Someone went crazy, charged into the Huang Family, started chopping and killing indiscriminately, killed many from the Huang Family, then committed suicide?"

"Apparently that person isn’t completely dead yet and has been taken in for emergency treatment."

While listening to the gossip, Lin Chen’s expression suddenly changed.

He unexpectedly caught sight of a familiar face through the Water Mirror Technique.

Zhang Zhongjiu!

He just separated from Zhang Zhongjiu in the morning, yet unexpectedly encountered him here again.

He suddenly recalled, before Zhang Zhongjiu left, he received a call about some serious incident, departed smartly. Reflecting on it now, the said incident was about the Huang Family?

It’s indeed quite a coincidence!

Zhang Zhongjiu clearly wasn’t the highest authority on the scene; he was merely busy with a bunch of people.

Soon, a man with a protruding belly called Zhang Zhongjiu over, spoke sternly, then turned and left.

In the image, Zhang Zhongjiu’s face suddenly took on a rather unpleasant expression.

Lin Chen squinted; was Zhang Zhongjiu reprimanded?

Should I meet him?
