Chapter 2087 - 2088: You Can Fill in the Blanks Yourself
Jim exhaled deeply, knowing that the other party wasn’t going to dwell on the bombing with him anymore, and immediately asked again: "Can you come out now?"
"This is quite good enough." The other’s cold voice slowly drifted into Jim’s ears again: "But Jim, do you think even if you haven’t done anything, the Marshal wouldn’t suspect you at all?"
"Suspect!" Jim said seriously: "But as long as the act is done well, then everything isn’t any problem."
"Do you think my acting can’t conquer the Marshal’s eyes?"
Perhaps it was Jim’s shameless words that left the other party unsure of how to respond, completely speechless for a long while.
After a long time, the other slowly spoke: "Jim, don’t be overly confident, generally people who are too confident meet a terrible end!"
"I’m an exception!" Jim continued to say confidently: "Alright, since you’re not coming out, I’ll leave here!"
"I’ll contact you; we might strike against the Marshal at any time."
With that, Jim turned and walked away.
At this moment, Jim’s goal had been achieved; he had found the other party and confirmed there were no issues, which allowed him to finally feel at ease and assured that his plan wouldn’t be stalled.
Although Bernie was now in Ye Xunhuan’s hands, Jim didn’t know, but even if he did, he probably wouldn’t care.
Even if Bernie were to betray him, Jim definitely wouldn’t pay it any mind.
After all, Bernie’s value has been completely exploited, and if Bernie speaks out, Jim would find a way to dismiss any views against him.
Jim emerged from the tunnel and immediately returned to the hotel, planning to seek out Ye Xunhuan.
However, upon stepping out from the tunnel, Jim had acquired a gruesome wound on his chest, and his complexion looked very unpleasant.
When Jim arrived at the hotel, it was still under lockdown, but due to his identity, Jim easily bypassed the barriers and headed straight upstairs.
Soon, Jim reached the upper floor, and upon hearing news of Jim’s return, Forsa appeared at the elevator doors to greet him just as with Ye Xunhuan.
As the elevator doors opened, Forsa immediately saw Jim, but upon seeing Jim’s disheveled appearance, Forsa’s expression changed slightly, hurriedly supporting Jim: "Boss, you are..."
"Take me to see the Marshal." Jim said with a hint of pain.
Forsa didn’t dare say much, and directly took Jim to find Ye Xunhuan.
At this moment, Ye Xunhuan had just finished interrogating Bernie and was sitting on the sofa smoking, his brow furrowed with a heavy disposition.
"Creak!"
The door was pushed open from the outside, causing Ye Xunhuan to instinctively look towards the entrance.
Upon seeing Forsa supporting the haggard-looking Jim come in from outside, Ye Xunhuan’s face immediately changed.
"Jim, you... what happened..."
Speaking, Ye Xunhuan quickly supported Jim and had him sit on the sofa.
Once Jim sat on the sofa, Ye Xunhuan hurriedly poured Jim a cup of tea: "Jim, what happened?"
Jim, exhausted but with a touch of satisfaction, glanced at Ye Xunhuan and slowly said: "Just after you left, someone drilled up from underground..."
"From underground?"
"Yes!" Jim took a deep breath, nodded, and even managed to display a fitting expression of dread and fear.
"What exactly happened?"
"After you left, someone drilled up from underground. They were like ninjas, appearing and disappearing rapidly. Initially, I could fight them, but then a terrifying figure appeared and ambushed me, catching me off guard and hitting me." Jim concisely explained.
Ye Xunhuan’s brow furrowed: "Like ninjas?"
"Yes!" Jim nodded immediately: "They must be ninjas, plus his eyes were like yours, both had black pupils!"
Ye Xunhuan did not speak, falling into silence.
The next moment, as if thinking of something, Jim continued: "Oh right, while I was fighting them, I ripped someone’s clothes and saw a mark, like..."
Jim’s brow slowly furrowed, looking pensive.
"Like what?"
"A totem!" Jim said with a frown: "I feel I’ve seen it somewhere, but I can’t remember at the moment!"
This kind of explanation from Jim left Ye Xunhuan unsure of where to begin guessing.
But then, Jim shifted topics: "Do you think it might be the Ampei family?"
Ampei family!
Upon hearing these four words, Ye Xunhuan’s eyes instantly constricted, his face taking on a heavy expression.
After all, he killed Ampei Ye Qing, though Ye Xunhuan had told Jim to clean it up thoroughly. Yet, it’s hard to ensure the Ampei family won’t investigate when they can’t reach Ampei Ye Qing.
At this moment, Forsa suddenly spoke up: "Boss, you look terrible, and your lips are purple..."
Startled by Forsa’s words, Ye Xunhuan once again focused on Jim.
Instantly, Ye Xunhuan’s face changed dramatically.
At this moment, Jim’s face was pale, his lips were purple, and even his pupils seemed to be bloodshot.
Poisoning!
These words immediately flashed in Ye Xunhuan’s mind.
"Quick, take him to the hospital!"
Ye Xunhuan hurriedly said to Forsa.
Forsa then came to his senses, immediately carried Jim downstairs, while Ye Xunhuan intended to follow.
Just as Ye Xunhuan stood up, his phone rang.
"Hello..."
"Marshal, your wife is in my hands."
Ye Xunhuan’s expression tensed: "What do you want, I warn you, you better not harm my wife, whatever it is, take it out on me!"
"I must say, you are quite enviable to have such a beautiful woman as your wife, making even me tempted and impatient to enjoy her!"
"Bastard!" Ye Xunhuan’s face immediately darkened, his eyes began flashing with fierce and bloodthirsty coldness: "What exactly do you want?"
"Taichi Seal!" The other party straightforwardly said: "And bring me the blade from Blood Phoenix!"
"I’ll give you two days. If I don’t see the blade within two days, you won’t need to collect your wife’s corpse, but you will see her with many men!" The other paused and continued: "As for what they’ll be doing, you can imagine!"
