The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 623: There Must Be Something Despicable about a Pitiable Person
Chapter 623: Chapter 623: There Must Be Something Despicable about a Pitiable Person
The next day, after resting in the hospital for another day, the heads of the four major families prepared to depart for Li Yaguo’s villa early on the third morning with feelings of anxious trepidation.
Inside a luxurious stretch Rolls-Royce, the atmosphere was extremely heavy.
Rister, Leonard, Ma Changsi, and Sydney were compelled to lead the way; after all, when Miller, the supreme ruler of Country M, had spoken, what reason did they have to refuse? Their expressions fluctuated uncertainly; they were afraid to see Ye Chenfeng again, to see the man who could be called a devil.
At their amputation sites, they still occasionally experienced bursts of sharp pain, their hearts filled with extreme bitterness. Rister said, "We must now consider how we can seek Ye Chenfeng’s forgiveness when we meet him later; otherwise, with Ye Chenfeng’s cruel methods, we should prepare to lose another arm or maybe a thigh today!"
"What else can we think of now? We can only try to appear as sincere as possible, we must not let Ye Chenfeng see our hatred for him. If we really have to, we will kneel and kowtow to him, hoping he can forgive us," Leonard said with red, angry eyes.
...
An hour later.
The luxurious stretch Rolls-Royce came to a steady stop at the doorstep of Li Yaguo’s villa, where the driver of the Rolls-Royce quickly got out of the car, moved four wheelchairs down from it, and then helped the four family heads to sit in them.
Rister said to the driver, "You stay in the car and wait for us; there’s no need to follow us in."
The wheelchairs Rister and the other family heads sat in were fully automatic and represented the most advanced wheelchairs in the world. The four of them controlled their wheelchairs to the entrance of Li Yaguo’s villa and rang the doorbell. However, after waiting for a moment, there was no response at all from the villa. Rister and the others were puzzled; logically, Miller had arranged for people to watch this place day and night, and they had confirmed with Miller that morning that Ye Chenfeng was still inside the villa, so why was there no reaction now?
Rister stretched out his remaining right hand and forcefully knocked twice on the door. The villa’s door hadn’t been locked and was knocked open by him. Rister glanced at the other three family heads and asked, "Shall we go in and have a look?"
"Since we’ve come here, let’s go in and see; let’s find out if Ye Chenfeng and his people have left," Ma Changsi said, leading the way into the villa’s living room, with the other three following closely behind.
The villa’s main hall was very quiet, with no sound coming from upstairs. Rister and the others could be sure that Ye Chenfeng and his people had already left. Leonard found a note on the living room’s coffee table, written in the language of Country M: "I, Ye Chenfeng, am always vengeful. You ungrateful people, do you think you can still live? However, I, Ye Chenfeng, find killing you too dirty for my hands. Others will naturally take your lives on my behalf. Go and enjoy your life in Hell!"
As Leonard looked at the note on the coffee table, his face turned pale instantly. Noticing the change in Leonard’s expression, the others hurriedly asked, "Leonard, what’s wrong?"
Leonard spoke feebly, "Look at the note left on the coffee table."
Rister and the other two immediately controlled their wheelchairs to the coffee table. After reading the words left on the note, their expressions were exactly like Leonard’s – eyes wide as lanterns, filled with boundless fear.
"Bang!"
A bullet came out of nowhere through the open window and entered Leonard’s head with deadly accuracy. Leonard, sitting in his wheelchair, was killed instantly, causing the other three family heads to completely snap back to reality as they tried to swiftly find a place to hide.
Another "bang!" sounded, and a bullet entered Ma Changsi’s head. This left Rister and Sydney even more panicked, their bodies shaking uncontrollably, utterly at a loss.
Then another "bang!" sounded, and Sydney was shot in the head. He slumped from his wheelchair to the floor. As Rister saw the other three family heads executed with a single shot each, he completely lost control of his emotions, screaming terrified, "Mr. Ye, I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong, I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die."
At this moment, Rister had thrown the hatred in his heart to the back of his mind. He regretted standing against Ye Chenfeng and now only wanted to survive, to keep living.
Unfortunately, was this regret not too late?
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The answer to Rister came in the form of a bullet that entered his head, his eyes bulging incomprehensibly wide, his mouth slightly open, his face filled with regret.
The person who killed Rister and the other three Family Heads was not Ye Chenfeng and his group. Ye Chenfeng had thought of a way to deal with these ungrateful bastards right from the beginning. He tasked Hei Xin with using various channels in Country M to pin the sudden collapse of the castle hosting the grand event of the Devouring Empire on the four major families and Miller and his people—in just one day.
It’s worth noting that there were still many members of the Devouring Empire in Country M. Once these remnants of the Empire learned of the news, they didn’t bother verifying whether it was true. Instead, they started planning the assassination of Rister and the others and orchestrated numerous terrorist operations in Country M.
At present, remnants of the Devouring Empire from all over the world had flocked to Country M upon hearing the news. In the future, Country M was bound to become the nation with the most concentrated terrorist activities. This mess was entirely left for Miller to clean up, which was Ye Chenfeng’s best way of punishing him. He wanted Miller, the supreme ruler of Country M, to live day and night in collapse and fear. Wouldn’t that be more interesting?
In fact, Rister and his companions had been followed for some time. The moment they stepped into Li Yaguo’s villa, the sniper had them in the crosshairs. Hence, by entering Li Yaguo’s villa today, they were undoubtedly marked for death.
...
In the hospital room where Abert was staying.
Miller, sitting on the sofa deep in thought, asked, "Abert, do you think Ye Chenfeng would forgive Rister and the others?"
Just as Abert was about to answer, Miller’s mobile phone rang. Without hesitation, he pressed the answer key and heard an urgent voice on the line, "Bad news. Rister, Leonard, Ma Changsi, and Sydney, the four Family Heads, are dead in Li Yaguo’s villa."
"What? Rister and the others are dead? Was it Ye Chenfeng’s doing?" Miller shouted angrily.
"The killers of Rister and the others have not yet been identified, and Ye Chenfeng and his people were not found in the villa," the person on the phone answered respectfully.
Miller’s eyes went blank as he hung up the phone. He had ordered the villa to be monitored round the clock—how could Ye Chenfeng and the rest just disappear? In reality, not only did Li Yaguo’s villa have escape mechanisms, but there was also a secret passage. Ye Chenfeng and others had left the villa through this secret passage long ago.
"Mr. President, what happened? Are Rister and the others dead?" Abert, lying in the hospital bed, was unable to hide his anger and shock after hearing Miller’s words. freewebnøvel.coɱ
Just as Miller was about to compose himself to answer Abert’s question, his mobile phone rang again. Agitated, he pressed the answer key, and a panicked voice came through: "Mr. President, our country has been subjected to terrorist attacks in several places. The number of deaths is terrifying, and the financial losses are massive. What’s more, terrorist attacks continue to spread across our country."
With a "snap," Miller’s mobile phone fell to the floor, and it felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained. He trembled slightly, knowing all this had to be connected to Ye Chenfeng.
Upon seeing Miller in such a distraught state, Abert was just about to ask a question when his own phone beside the bed began to ring. Pressing the answer key, he only heard his wife’s voice on the line, "Honey, it’s terrible, our son and daughter have disappeared. Could someone have kidnapped them? I found a box at our front door, and it contained two arms. Could they belong to our son and daughter?"
Abert’s phone slipped from his hand onto the floor too, his mind going blank from the shock of the sudden news.
One should never underestimate the remnants of the Devouring Empire; if they wanted to throw the entire Country M into chaos, they certainly could.
Those to be pitied often have faults to be detested.
If only Miller and Abert had known this would happen, why did they do what they did in the first place! (To be continued.
