Dark Light Chaser.

Mr. M's voice was cold, but Ai Liang felt that something was off.

After reviewing the events leading up to and following Pan Junyuan and Mr. M, Ai Liang discovered the problem.

"M, you mean you need Zhao Xingsheng as a witness to expose the Fengqi Group and help Pan Junyuan clear his name, right?"

Mr. M immediately replied, “That’s right. No matter how corrupt Nevada’s politics are, not everyone is wallowing in the mud. The formal procedures still need to be followed, and the more witnesses and physical evidence, the better.”

The more physical evidence the better, which means that besides Zhao Xingsheng, Mr. M and his group may have already obtained a lot of evidence.

The overall improvement in physical fitness is not only reflected in sports and defense, but also in the fact that Ai Liang's brain is working much more efficiently and keenly than before.

"So your main purpose in helping Pan Junyuan was to use him as bait, to reduce the number of people that need to be investigated within the Fengqi Group, and to eliminate those who are still in action."

After all, even if the Toyosaki Group were incredibly audacious, they wouldn't allow the arsonist to continue working for them openly, especially since they weren't short of manpower.

Ai Liang deliberately said, "No wonder you said before that Pan Junyuan wasn't necessary."

"Don't try to sow discord between me and him. I made it clear to him from the beginning, and you already know that, don't you?"

So easy to take the bait?

Ai Liang smiled slightly: "Pan Junyuan is not necessary, but Zhao Xingsheng is still valuable. If your purpose in cooperating with Pan Junyuan was to quickly identify the real culprit, then now that the person has been found, Pan Junyuan is probably useless."

But instead of kicking him away, you let a college student who had been on the run for half a year and a bounty hunter with no reputation do such an important thing. Aren't you worried that we won't be able to capture Zhao Xingsheng and will let him go?
Without Pan Junyuan showing himself, it wouldn't be difficult for a few unsuspecting bounty hunters to capture Zhao Xingsheng. What else are you hiding?

"Tsk."

Faced with Ai Liang's questioning, Mr. M, sitting in front of the computer, looked troubled: "I thought he was just a brute who could fight, but it turns out he's not bad at all. I can't use the same tricks I used to fool Pan Junyuan on him. I have to be careful."

After a moment's thought, Mr. M decided to reveal some information and use half-truths to mislead Ai Liang.

He opened his voice and explained, "Pan Junyuan still has a certain social value, which is of great help to my operations."

In addition, Zhao Xingsheng is not stupid. When he was arrested, he would definitely try to use the Fengqi Group as a shield. Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse, and some people will always have reservations.

Aside from Pan Junyuan, with whom they have a blood feud, and you, who have no interest in the 800,000 bounty, I don't trust any other bounty hunters.

Finally, if even you, fighting seven against one, can't take down Zhao Xingsheng, then sending someone else will be pointless.

Ai Liang raised an eyebrow.

Social and public opinion value? Haha, it seems that the widespread dissemination of the news about the 800,000 yuan reward may not be without the help of someone behind Mr. M.

Pan Junyuan, you really are...

Ai Liang shook her head, feeling sorry for the innocent college student.

Considering Pan Junyuan's feelings, Ai Liang did not bring up this more cruel truth, but instead changed the subject: "The news about Fish Street spread so fast?"

"Hey, if I weren't well-informed, could I have helped this kid hide for half a year while being pursued by both the police and the underworld?"

It is true.

Ai Liang thought to herself.

"If you could clearly state where you picked up the gun, I wouldn't have spent half a day wandering around Fish Street and ended up getting found by Skinny. But it's good that he came looking for me, consider it as ridding the people of a menace."

"You really are... helpful."

Mr. M's voice carried a strange tone: "Your skinnyness is your problem and has nothing to do with me. You've asked what you needed to ask, shouldn't you focus your energy on the important matters?"

“Alright, go ahead,” Ai Liang said. Actually, Ai Liang still had some unresolved questions: Was the death of Pan Junyuan's family really due to a land dispute?
It's not hard to tell from Mr. M's words that the forces behind him are in a confrontation with the Toyosaki Group. At this critical juncture, setting fire to and wiping out an entire family just because of a land dispute doesn't seem like something a normal person would do.

Out of consideration for her status as an outsider, Ai Liang did not continue to ask.

Continuing like this will inevitably arouse Mr. M's suspicion.

"Returning to the question of Zhao Xingsheng, I searched within the Fengqi Group for a long time, but I couldn't find any trace of this guy until his social media account went online for a few minutes half a month ago, which caught my attention."

The other party was online for too short a time, and I didn't know if it was really them, so I chose to observe them cautiously for a while.

Until a few days ago, I discovered that someone within the Toyosaki Group would regularly drive people out of the city.

After making inquiries from various sources, I confirmed that the mountain village they drove to was the same one I had previously located. If I'm not mistaken, Zhao Xingsheng should be in the villa in the village.

Since I don't have any extra manpower available, I'm not sure about the defensive strength.

My personal advice is that you should observe the situation for a while before taking any action, at least to find out how many people are in the house.

The people from the Toyosaki Group aren't like skinny thugs; if they see a stranger sneaking in, they'll open fire immediately.

Firearms are not scary, at least that's how Ai Liang sees them, but he's not alone in this operation.

Ai Liang looked at Pan Junyuan, just as the other man was looking at her.

The two exchanged a glance, and Pan Junyuan was the first to look away.

Just when Ai Liang thought Pan Junyuan was about to hand over the reins to her, he spoke up: "Can you be sure that everyone inside is from the Toyosaki Group?"

"It's confirmed. This resort is a property of the Toyosaki Group, and it's exclusively for internal staff and not open to the public. It took me a lot of effort to find this place."

Mr. M said with absolute certainty.

Pan Junyuan took out his phone: "Send me the address."

"Tonight?" Ai Liang asked doubtfully, which was completely inconsistent with the emotions emanating from Pan Jun.

"I don't want to wait any longer, and I can't wait any longer."

Pan Junyuan replied with an ambiguous statement without even looking up.

"If you think it's too risky, you can stay. I won't force you to come with me."

Ai Liang was speechless for a moment. He had always regarded danger as a toy, and this was the first time he had been regarded as a coward by others.

"I don't think it's that risky. The key question is, after we find Zhao Xingsheng, where do you plan to put this guy? This storage room?"

"Leave the hiding place to me."

Mr. M did not try to persuade Pan Junyuan, but simply did his job quietly: "I can free up a garage here, you can take the person there."

"Do you have a car? My bicycle can't carry people."

"Yes, it's outside the village. It just came here today."

Ai Liang nodded: "Then I'm all set. Shall we set off now?"

"Ok!"
