Chapter 459: Only Betrayal

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Cheng Zhen was the man who caused the Nighthawk to split up and take away more than half of the Nighthawk to establish himself as the leader.

When Zhu Wen suddenly heard this name, hatred surged in his eyes. “1 don’t know much. I only know that he was loyal to my brother in the past, but after my brother died, he revealed his true nature. He’s a despicable and ambitious villain!”

Shi Man could tell that the hatred in his eyes was not fake. She asked bluntly, “Do you think it’s possible that he did this?”

Zhu Wen looked over in shock, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. “1 don’t know, but why would he want to harm me? I’m fine with him. 1 want to bring my brothers to do some serious business and be an upright person. What’s wrong with that?”

Shi Man sighed silently.

Since Zhu Wen said this, it meant that he still didn’t understand the situation. There wouldn’t be any results if she continued asking.

She had already asked what she needed to ask. Shi Man stood up and was about to leave.

Just as the mighty team was about to leave the office under Shi Man and Yi Zheng’s lead, Zhu Wen suddenly felt empty.

He quickly followed her and stammered, “Wait, 1 still have something to say.”

Shi Man and Yi Zheng stopped, but they did not turn around, leaving him with an indifferent back view.

Zhu Wen pursed his thin lips uncomfortably and said in a voice as low as a mosquito, “I want to say, does the temporary alliance we formed in the past still count?”

Shi Man suddenly frowned and said in a low and magnetic voice, “Not really. At that time, we wanted to help you deal with Hellgate, but now, Hellgate is no longer around.”

Zhu Wen lowered his eyes in disappointment. Just as he was about to mock himself, he heard Shi Man’s calm voice again.

“However, if you really need help, you can come to my company to look for me. But I’m a businessman. I won’t help for nothing.”

“I know!” He was already very happy to hear Shi Man’s words.

However, what he did not know was that the reason why Shi Man was suddenly kind was all because of the life his brother had lost.

The few of them left the office together. Shi Man followed Yi Zheng and Tang Zhe into their car and let Sean and the others go back first.

As soon as she got into the car, Shi Man punched the door coldly. “There’s a mole, and it’s one of my people.”

Tang Zhe sat in the driver’s seat and felt a chill run down his spine.

Today, they had mobilized so many people to capture Jun Mo. However, not only had they failed, but the person behind them had also directed the spearhead to the two brothers of the Zhu family. They were clearly being played.

Of course, Yi Zheng was not happy, but he still held Shi Man’s hand that was red from the punch. He said softly, “It’s not difficult to investigate the mole. There aren’t many people who know about this today. There will be results if we investigate them one by one.”

“What I hate the most is being betrayed by my own people.” Shi Man took a deep breath and barely stabilized her emotions. “It’s impossible for Jun Mo to detonate that explosion himself, but he might think that we did this and want to take revenge on us. The person behind it might be him.”

Yi Zheng shook his head gently and smiled helplessly. “You overestimate him.”

Shi Man blinked in surprise and pretended to be all ears.

“He can’t do it.” Yi Zheng only said those words as an evaluation of Jun Mo, but it was convincing enough.

Yi Zheng’s Blood Oath had been in the dark for many years. The opponents would always understand one another. No one knew Jun Mo better than Yi Zheng. It was precisely because of this that he had never associated these few obvious revenge incidents with Jun Mo.

Shi Man lowered her eyes thoughtfully and gritted her teeth. “Although it’s possible that he didn’t do it, he must have already joined forces with the person behind him. Last time, 1 was guessing who else the mastermind would look for. It turns out that he found Jun Mo first.”

Yi Zheng sneered, clearly not taking Jun Mo seriously. “Then he’s barking up the wrong tree. He’s a coward who can betray us at any time. If that person joins forces with Jun Mo, it means that we’re not far from finding him.”

Shi Man sighed, still distraught about the possibility of a mole inside Immaculate. She leaned back in her chair and gently closed her eyes. “We still need people now. I’ll carry out the investigation in secret. Drive.”

Tang Zhe hurriedly started the car and stepped on the accelerator to drive in the direction of the road. After holding it in for a while, he couldn’t help but carefully probe, “Is there a possibility that the mole didn’t do it tonight, but the other party received the news in advance?”

Shi Man rested her head on the pillow and shook her head gently. “The casino was controlled by Sean and the others as soon as they entered. I dealt with the rest myself. No one will have time to inform them. Moreover, they’re just in a business relationship. Why should they risk their lives to protect each other?”

In that case, there was really only the possibility of a mole.

Tang Zhe turned around and drove seriously, not daring to speak again..
