Chapter 490: Just What You Want
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The news that their boss had been killed in the hospital and even the bodyguard had been stabbed quickly spread back to Nighthawk. The state of disunity that had shown signs of settling became chaotic again.
With Cheng Zhen’s death, this portion of the Nighthawk mercenaries became leaderless again.
Some people suggested that the two split Nighthawks should be merged, while others did not agree because they did not want to follow Zhu Wen to sell frozen fish.
The entire office was in chaos. The secretary slammed the table in frustration and shouted coldly, “Boss just died. Don’t you want to avenge him? You actually want to split up!”
The original discussion completely quietened down.
Someone carefully stole a glance at the secretary’s expression and couldn’t help but ask with a bitter expression, “Even if we want revenge, we don’t know who to look for! Why don’t we wait for Little Six to wake up?”
Little Six was the mercenary who had been sent to the hospital to act as a bodyguard today.
Now, he was still in the midst of emergency treatment.
The secretary was anxious to avenge Cheng Zhen, but he really didn’t know who did it. He ruffled his hair in frustration and said fiercely, “Investigate! The murderer this time must be the person who shot Boss last time! Investigate carefully if there are any clues at that time!”
“That’s right!” The people below slapped their thighs and hurriedly went down to do something. Soon, they returned with the news in the newspaper.
Looking at the pistol on it, the secretary narrowed his eyes dangerously. He took out his glasses from the drawer and stared at the pattern behind the gun. “Look, is this the symbol of the former Hellgate?”
The others hurriedly rushed forward. After being glared at by the secretary, they distanced themselves from him and narrowed their eyes nervously at the pattern on it.
“It seems to be true!” Someone had good eyesight and could recognise that familiar pattern without glasses. He immediately exclaimed, “Yes! This is Jun Mo’s pistol!”
The noisy discussion sounded in his ears again.
The secretary was extremely annoyed and scolded them to shut up. Then, he shook off the newspaper and analyzed, “Jun Mo didn’t show up at all during the transaction that day. The gun was shot from the direction of the building, which means that someone had been lying in ambush there for a long time.”
Hearing the secretary’s analysis, someone quickly raised their thoughts. “Brother, could it be that Jun Mo wanted to silence him and set up an ambush in advance? Otherwise, how could there be a third party who knew that Boss was going to trade there that night?”
The secretary naturally thought of this possibility first, but he quickly extinguished it himself. “No, what Jun Mo needs the most now is money. He really needs to continue working with us. Killing Boss won’t do him any good. Moreover, have you heard of anyone who wants to throw a murder weapon with their mark at the event location after killing someone?”
“That’s true!” That person thought about it carefully and realized that it was true!
The driver who accompanied Cheng Zhen to the transaction that night suddenly remembered something. He nodded and said, “Yes, after the gunshot that day, Jun Mo’s people were obviously very flustered. They thought that someone was lying in ambush and drove away. We didn’t react at that time and thought that their people had fired, so we hurriedly drove after them. However, Boss couldn’t take it halfway, so we changed our route to the hospital.”
“That’s right.” The secretary pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and said coldly, “It seems that someone can’t stand Boss and wants to make things difficult for us.”
“Then who could this person be?” The others stared at the secretary curiously, as if they had already treated him as their backbone.
The secretary pondered for a moment and thought of the person who was most likely to do this. The corners of his lips curled into a cold smile. “Other than him, who else can hate Boss so much? It seems that someone doesn’t want to continue selling fish.”
The secretary’s idea benefited Jun Mo.
When the news of the hospital reached his ears, Jun Mo was resting on the recliner with his eyes closed. When he heard that Cheng Zhen was completely dead, he suddenly opened his eyes, and a trace of anxiety appeared in his eyes. “Did anyone notice?”
“No one.” The person in charge of killing Cheng Zhen had already changed out of his white coat. At this moment, he was wearing a black suit. From his temperament, he looked like a completely different person from the gentle doctor just now.
After saying that, he paused for a moment and mentioned something unbelievable. “However, Boss, the bodyguard in charge of protecting Cheng Zhen in the hospital was suddenly stabbed. He’s being resuscitated now, but I didn’t fight him at all.”
Jun Mo suddenly sat up and stared blankly at his face for a while. He suddenly laughed crazily. “Good, very good. This matter has nothing to do with us anymore. You’ve done very well. Go to the secretary and collect a sum of money. Don’t show your face for the time being.”
“Yes.” The man did not know why he was suddenly so happy. The haze that had shrouded the entire Hellgate for a few days finally dissipated.
However, he didn’t want to know what his boss was thinking. He just had to kill the person he was assigned to kill and resolve his boss’s worries.
After the man left, Jun Mo lit a cigarette leisurely and narrowed his eyes in satisfaction. However, the girl who had caused a scene in the office kept appearing in front of him..
