Chapter 208 - SUSPICIOUS ARISES (PART 6)
Lu Feng curiously looked at Ge Chen. "What? Her cousin? How did that happen?"
"We went to attend her cousin’s wedding when..." Ge Chen shortly described the whole story.
"Drug?" Mu Liang frowned at that thought of ’drug’. He straightened his back and inquired, "What kind of drug?"
Ge Chen shrugged. "I’m not sure. We didn’t have the chance to investigate. After the explosion, we only saw a burning building."
Mu Feng concluded, "So, the evidence has been removed permanently."
Ge Chen shared, "However, Lin strongly believed that her cousin had nothing to do with this explosion because she hypnotized him. By the time he came back to senses, the police officers captured him."
Lu Feng stated, "She is an observant person. She knows her cousin well. Since she is being so confident, I will trust her."
Ge Chen commented, "Me too but if what she thinks is true then someone else has done it when everyone was around. Moreover, that person killed the suspect so that he cannot spill the beans. Things are a lot easier if we think this way."
"Then, who can be the person?" Lu Feng asked.
Ge Chen didn’t know. No one knew who was behind this.
Mu Liang mentioned, "Feng and I are looking for a drug. It’s in China. You mean the drug that nearly killed your wife and Feng’s girlfriend?"
"If I get the chance to get a hand on who did this..." Mu Feng tightened his fists.
Ge Chen commented, "The Chinese military is definitely involved in this. The question is how many powerful people know about this. I’ve already destroyed any remaining doc.u.ments regarding that mentioned drug. However, if the experiment is secretly going on..."
Lu Feng remarked, "If that drug is related to this recent accident..."
Mu Feng immediately said, "No way, the military won’t hand over something so important to some immoral civilians."
Ge Chen’s grey eyes sparked with a hidden fire. ��That’s true. They will keep the information to themselves. I’m sure they still have doc.u.ments. They aren’t carefree enough not to make a copy of those doc.u.ments. I think they have more than one copy... three copies maybe. Three most powerful men in China..."
Lu Feng looked at him, "But, doesn’t that..."
Ge Chen slightly shook his head. "I know what you are thinking but it’s not that easy. I’m not involved with them. If I could just hack their main security system..." he looked at Mu Liang and asked, "Speaking of a hacker, do you have a hacker in your house, Liang?"
Mu Liang was startled by the sudden change of topic and the direct question of his friend. Before he could answer, Mu Feng spoke. "Yes, don’t you know that I’m a hacker. Don’t forget that I’m the number four hacker in this world."
Ge Chen denied his claim. "Not you, I know your hacking style and pattern. I’m not talking about you. There is someone else who is better at hacking than me. That person is in your castle. I found out about that person’s existence a few weeks ago. That person uses a snake as a trademark."
"Snake?" Mu Feng pondered, "That’s definitely me. Well, other than me... Xiao Chen is a good hacker but not good enough to capture your eyes. Other than him... sister Lan Lan! She knows how to hack. But, I have never seen her using any snake trademark. No, she never used any trademark."
"Hmm... I see." Ge Chen glanced at Mu Liang and asked, "Do you by any chance know that person?"
Mu Liang opened his mouth, "The only thing in my mind is – did you try to hack our security system again?"
Ge Chen smirked. His pair of grey eyes flickered with amus.e.m.e.nt. "It’s nothing new."
"Hey now! How dare you to be so shameless and admit it with a smile?" Mu Feng accused him.
Ge Chen gave his excuse, "I’m the one who created that security system. What’s wrong with checking it out once a while?"
Mu Feng retorted, "I know you are doing to spy on us! Well, it doesn’t matter." He proudly added, "I updated a new version after I learned how to hack. I update it every month."
Ge Chen stated, "It’s not hard to break through your codes."
Mu Feng sulked, "Damn! I need to learn from sister Lan Lan how to beat you in your game.’
Ge Chen put his hand under the chin. "Is she that good?"
Mu Feng proudly said, "Hmph, you have no idea how good my sister Lan Lan is."
Ge Chen casually asked, "How good is she?"
"She can defeat you in a few minutes." Mu Feng snorted. He could never beat Ge Chen with his current ability but Mu Lan could. He was trying to show off his sister-in-law’s ability.
Ge Chen quietly observed him for a while and then agreed. "Since she can, let’s have a duel with her. We will see who wins."
Mu Liang spoke, "Do whatever you want but not now. We will go on a honeymoon."
Ge Chen agreed. "Sure, when you come back, I would like you to visit us in China. Lin will love it."
"Speaking on honeymoon, where did you spend your honeymoon?" Mu Feng asked like a gossip girl.
Ge Chen said truthfully, "We haven’t had any honeymoon. She is surprisingly weary of men."
"Weary of men?" Mu Feng frowned. "She didn’t seem like it when we were around her."
Ge Chen told them, "I know. Whenever I met her in Paris or Italy, she didn’t look like it. However, when I first met her in a bar, she didn’t trust me at all. I’m not surprised by her action since it’s normal but she was drunk and yet vigilant. It caught my attention. After marriage, she barely slept at night. When I realized that it’s because of my presence, I let her stay alone from time to time so that she could take rest."
They were his friends. Just as they trusted him as their friend and shared their problems, he did the same. Most of the time, he could handle his problem on his own but his friend had known his wife before he met her. They got to know her more than he did. He shared his situation believing that they might give him some information regarding Xue Lin. fr(e)ewebnovel
"Maybe she isn’t used to married life and had a hard time coping up with a new environment," Lu Feng remarked. "Where are you living now? In the Ge Family mansion?"
Ge Chen replied, "No, in my mother’s house in the B City."
Lu Feng commented, "At least she is safe there. Maybe she is having a hard time because you are rich."
"...She doesn’t know," Ge Chen spilled the beans.
"She still doesn’t know?" Mu Feng shouted in astonishment.
"Wait, what do you mean by she doesn’t know?" Lu Feng’s eyes widened in horror. "You mean... she really doesn’t know your true identity?"
Ge Chen nodded. "She doesn’t."
"Unbelievable!" Lu Feng commented.
"If you ask me, it’s a bad idea to hide your identity from her," Mu Liang said. "When I first met Xiao Lan, I never hid who I am."
Ge Chen looked at the calm ocean and said, "I wouldn’t hide it if my wife was easy going like yours. She is cautious and she has some kind of prejudice against rich people. She thinks all rich people are bad."
Mu Feng asked in worry, "Does she think of us bad people?"
Ge Chen raised an eyebrow. "What do you think? After all, you did involve her with your work. She knows your line of work."
Mu Feng scratched his head. "But she never hated it. She saw bloodshed and she heard when I talked about torturing people. She didn’t even flinch or felt disgusted."
Ge Chen looked at him and tried to confirm, "You mean... she was completely normal even though she heard you speak about slicing people?"
Mu Feng stated, "Strange right? If it was my Ying, she would have fainted at the spot and have a fever. Later, she would request me not to hurt people no matter how bad they are. Sometimes, it’s hard to cope up with her. That’s the very reason I never share anything with her. How I wished she would be slightly like your wife."
"Xiao Lan is different. She doesn’t care what I do. She gave me absolute freedom. Even if I ever have to kill anyone, she won’t stop me. She trusts me this much." There was a hint of pride in Mu Liang’s voice.
"Stop showing off, will you, big brother?" Mu Feng looked sullen.
"Do you think she is used to this kind of bloodshed?" Lu Feng asked Ge Chen. He went back to the main point.
"What do you mean by that? Do you think she is a part of the mafia?" Mu Feng asked. He never got this kind of vibe from Xue Lin.
Mu Liang commented, "Her background was clean when I checked on her."
Then what could it be?
