Chapter 626 The White-Haired Imp

Unfortunately, a teenage girl is no match for an adult man.

He was quickly flung away.

Chen Jiajun saw this and initially wanted to reach out to help, rushing over to grab the man. But he suddenly realized that his actions were pointless.

The outstretched hand passed right through the man's body, serving no purpose whatsoever.

It's as if... the two sides are not in the same space-time.

The older twin got up from the ground and, seeing that this beast was about to harm her younger sister, the girl was furious.

She jumped onto the man's back, wrapped one arm around his neck, and stabbed him hard in the chest with the other.

One, two, three...

Blood quickly stained the man's chest, and then the man, driven mad by lust, finally collapsed.

The younger sister was so frightened that she burst into tears.

Then she looked up and saw that not only the man had bloodstains on his chest, but also her sister who had come to rescue her.

The older twin looked blankly at the bright red blood blooming on her chest, and then she too collapsed.

Then, the younger twin broke down, tearing at her hair and crying bitterly.

Chen Jiajun couldn't get involved, so he could only sigh and continue watching.

It's unclear how long the girl cried, but perhaps she was exhausted from crying, because she suddenly got up from the ground.

He then found a rope, hung it from the ceiling fan in the room, stepped onto a chair, put the other end around his neck, and kicked the chair over.

She was hanging in the middle of the room, struggling for a few minutes before stopping.

Even Chen Jiajun, who had seen too much fighting and treachery, still felt a bit angry when he saw this scene.

He turned to look at the white-haired child and said coldly, "What are you planning to do by bringing me here to see this scene?"

The child didn't speak, but simply pointed to the clock.

Chen Jiajun then noticed that the clock, which should have been stopped at around 4 o'clock, started spinning rapidly.

Finally, it stopped at 6 o'clock.

Just as Chen Jiajun was about to speak, he heard the sound of the door opening, and then his pregnant wife pushed the door open and walked in.

Just then, I saw two corpses covered in blood on the floor, and a girl hanging in the center of the room.

The woman's eyes widened immediately, and then she let out a terrified scream.

The scene Chen Jiajun witnessed abruptly ended at this point, as if time itself had stopped.

After reading the whole story, Chen Jiajun still couldn't understand what the child wanted him to do.

The child then pointed to the calendar in the room, specifically pointing to a date.

Chen Jiajun's expression immediately changed, because the date... was two days later!
Chen Jiajun suddenly realized, and then said to the white-haired child, "You want me to save them?"

The white-haired child nodded quickly, clasped his hands together, and waved to Chen Jiajun.

Chen Jiajun looked at the kid in front of him suspiciously and said, "Who exactly are you? How did you know this was going to happen?"

The child opened his mouth but couldn't make a sound. He could only shake his head at Chen Jiajun and then vanished into thin air in front of him.

"Damn it!" Chen Jiajun was immediately frustrated, but he just couldn't do anything about this kid.

After glancing at the room, Chen Jiajun could only sigh and leave.

Time remained frozen, except for a brief flicker in the elevator light at the end of the corridor.

After looking around and finding that he couldn't open any of the doors, Chen Jiajun had no choice but to step into the elevator.

The elevator started working again, taking Chen Jiajun back to his floor.

Then that eerie feeling receded like the tide, as if nothing had happened.

It's as if... Chen Jiajun is sleepwalking.

Chen Jiajun walked to Chen You's door and knocked.

This time, Chen You finally reacted, quickly opened the door, looked around the corridor, and then said to Chen Jiajun, "That kid is here to see you again?"

Chen Jiajun nodded with a serious expression, took a deep breath, and said, "And he even showed me a tragedy!"

"What's going on?" Chen You asked, startled.

Chen Jiajun said calmly, "I'll tell you after we go inside!"

After entering Chen You's room, Chen Jiajun picked up Chen You's wine glass, poured himself a drink, and then asked, "I saw a middle-aged couple at your food stall before, the one where the wife was pregnant, do you remember them? The man was very polite and wore glasses."

Chen You pondered for a moment, matching the characters in his mind, then nodded and said, "You should be Teacher Liu and Ah Feng. What does this have to do with them?"

Chen Jiajun sighed and then told Chen You everything he had seen.

Startled, Chen You stood up abruptly and asked Chen Jiajun, "Are you sure you're not sleepwalking?"

Chen Jiajun said irritably, "Nonsense, I'm perfectly sober!"

"This...this is too bizarre, isn't it?" Chen You said in surprise.

Chen Jiajun couldn't help but laugh and said, "For a celestial master like you to utter the word 'strange,' this matter is indeed very strange."

Chen You frowned, did some quick calculations with his fingers, and then said to Chen Jiajun with delight, "Wait, it seems your matter has been settled!"

"Huh?" Chen Jiajun reacted quickly: "You mean, that white-haired brat?"

Chen You nodded and said, "It's very likely, but don't worry, let me cast another divination for you."

As he spoke, Chen You made hand gestures and began chanting incantations.

Then Chen You took out a tortoise shell containing copper coins. After reading the inscription, he tossed the coins out.

Chen Jiajun asked curiously, "You used a compass before, why are you using oracle bones now?"

Chen You said irritably, "This is no small matter. If your calculations are too accurate, they might backfire on me! If it weren't for my senior brother's sake, believe me, I would have used divination blocks instead, which are even more ambiguous!"

"Alright!" Chen Jiajun didn't understand this stuff anyway, so he could only shut his mouth.

Chen You quickly calculated the result and said with a solemn expression, "Very bad...very good, how could this be?"

Chen Jiajun asked curiously, "What do you mean? Is there danger?"

Chen You nodded and said, "According to the divination, your matter is indeed settled, but... it will be very dangerous!"

Chen Jiajun spread his hands and said, "We have to do it, even if it's dangerous!"

Chen You nodded: "Since you've said so, then let's save them!"

……

Hong Kong in another time and space.

Lu Yongyu was in a state of great distress dealing with the affairs of the Lu Guo Group.

Because recently, the Lu Guo Group has been plagued by a series of troubles.

Not only did strange things frequently happen on the construction site, but the smooth acquisition of the land also encountered some problems.

In particular, the recent death of a person at the construction site has subjected Lu Guo Group to a series of questions.

"What exactly happened?" Lu Yongyu arrived at the construction site and said to the person in charge with a serious expression, "How many times have I emphasized the importance of construction safety? Have you been ignoring my words?"

The person in charge said with a wronged look, "Mr. Lu, it's really not that we don't pay attention to construction safety. We have emphasized that these workers who are working at heights must wear safety ropes during our training. We even have a safety officer on site."

"Where is the safety officer?" Lu Yongyu said coldly.

The person in charge looked even more grim: "He...he was dragged off to drink, and he's completely drunk and hasn't come to the construction site yet!"

"So your position as safety officer is practically meaningless?" Lu Yongyu said coldly. "Check for me. There are other workers besides the safety officer!"

Lu Yongyu's assistant nodded and immediately sent people to the construction site to conduct an investigation.

Before Lu Yongyu could even sit down and catch his breath, his assistant, who had just left, suddenly returned, looking panicked, and said to Lu Yongyu, "Mr. Lu, the police, the media, and the government are all here!"

"What?" Lu Yongyu immediately sensed that something was wrong.

Logically speaking, a safety accident on a construction site is quite troublesome.

But such a grand gesture wasn't necessary. Clearly, someone was quietly pushing this together.

Left with no other option, Lu Yongyu could only meet with government officials and instruct his subordinates to exercise restraint.

After all, the Lu Guo Group is in the eye of the storm at this time, and should not cause any more trouble.

Soon Lu Yongyu appointed officials from the Housing Development Department.

The officials were very polite and showed great respect to Lu Yongyu.

Just when Luk Wing-yu thought the matter could be resolved quickly, the Housing Development Department officials suddenly received a phone call, and their expressions changed.
"Mr. Lu, I'm sorry!" The Housing and Building Department official said with a troubled expression after hanging up the phone, "The higher-ups said that your Lu Guo Group's construction site must stop work immediately!"

Lu Yongyu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Didn't we agree on this before?"

An official from the Housing and Building Department said helplessly, "But higher-ups have interfered in this matter... so Mr. Lu, you should probably suspend construction for a while!"

Lu Yongyu knew that the official in front of him couldn't make the decision, so he didn't make things difficult for him. He simply nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. I'll have them stop work and cooperate with your investigation!"

"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Mainland!" The Housing Development Department official breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Yongyu returned to her office and vented her anger. She could imagine what the newspapers would say about their Lu Guo Group tomorrow morning!
Moreover, there is pressure coming from behind the scenes, clearly indicating a plan to "investigate" this matter for an extended period.

This would not only delay Lu Guo Group's engineering projects, but could even seriously affect subsequent land acquisitions.

It's important to understand that the real estate industry operates on a fast-turnover model.

If something happens in the middle and the process is disrupted, it can even affect the operation of the entire chain.

Thinking of such terrible consequences, Lu Yongyu dared not delay and immediately called Huo Yingnan.

Only Fok Ying-nam's connections can save the Lu Guo Group.

But when the call reached the Huo family, Lu Yongyu felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

News came from the Huo family that Huo Yingnan was seriously ill and hospitalized.

When Lu Yongyu arrived at the hospital, he found that Huo Yingnan was indeed lying on a special care bed.

He had fallen into a coma.

The entire Huo family stayed by Huo Yingnan's side.

The Huo family has good family upbringing, and the children are quite united. There haven't been any dramatic incidents like the father not being dead yet and already thinking about dividing the family property.

Lu Yongyu inquired about the situation of Huo Yingnan's eldest son.

However, the result was something Lu Yongyu had not expected.

When Fok Ying-nam ran into trouble at this critical moment, Luk Wing-yu suspected that it was the work of someone behind Luk Wing-fu.

However, according to the Huo family, Huo Yingnan had some minor health problems that accumulated over time, which led to this incident. This was completely different from the conspiracy that Lu Yongyu had imagined.

This left Fok Ying-nam completely dumbfounded, his mind a complete mess.

After hastily bidding farewell to the Huo family, Lu Yongyu left the hospital.

Just as they were thinking of a solution, the elusive old villain suddenly appeared.

"Why are you here?" Lu Yongyu asked, somewhat puzzled.

The old man said calmly, "I heard you've run into some trouble! About the death of a worker at the construction site?"

“That’s right!” Lu Yongyu scratched his head, looking somewhat tired, and said, “I’m having a real headache over this right now!”

Under Chen Jiajun's protection, Lu Yongyu's path has been far too smooth these past few years.

So much so that she panicked when she encountered this situation.

It is clear that Lu Yongyu's abilities are at most limited to this level.

If it were one of Chen Jiajun's business elites, like Wei Li and others, they would never have done it this way.

But now she doesn't trust any of the people in Guojun Group, after all, she had heard Lao E say that there had been some turmoil within Guojun Group before.

Looking at Lu Yongyu's expression, the old man continued, "Although I don't know what's bothering you, since the other party has resorted to such despicable means, isn't it a bit naive of you to still be thinking about solving the problem?"

Upon hearing Lao E's words, Lu Yongyu was immediately stunned.

Exactly! Since they've resorted to such low-level tactics, they're clearly ready to completely break off relations.

So what else could she possibly be worried about?

You know, when it comes to scheming, who can outmaneuver Hung Hing and the intelligence agencies under Chan Ka Chun?
Seeing that Lu Yongyu seemed to have come to a realization, Lao E laughed and said, "We did some investigation on the side regarding that dead worker and found out he was a gambling addict with a mountain of high-interest debt. If he tried to pay it back through normal means, he would never be able to repay it in his lifetime!"

Lu Yongyu immediately understood: "So, this worker committed suicide?"

“That’s right, we investigated the worker’s wife and children. We found that the loan shark debt has been paid off, and she’s living a good life with her two children. There’s a large sum of money in her bank account!” Old Evil shrugged and said, “It’s pretty obvious!”

Lu Yongyu bit his finger and said, "Dead men tell no tales! What a brilliant tactic!"

It's clear that the person who orchestrated all of this had planned everything out. Even if Lu Yongyu discovers the truth, there's nothing he can do about it.

Then Lu Yongyu thought of something and said to Lao E, "By the way, can you trace the account from which the money was transferred?"

Old Evil shook his head and said, "The other party is using overseas accounts, so we can't trace them! However, we've found out that their methods go beyond this, and we expect they'll use even more methods to put pressure on you next."

Lu Yongyu frowned and said, "We're too passive!"

The old man offered a suggestion: "We can also try targeting your cousins!"

“Although Brother Qiang has joined Lu Yongfu and his gang, the people behind Lu Yongfu and his gang seem to be wary of him,” Lu Yongyu said with a headache. “Brother Qiang tried to get information out of him for a long time, but he didn’t get anything out of him!”

"Moreover, those brothers somehow convinced the local gentry of Lujia Village, and they're all clamoring to withdraw their shares. Ah Jun can't come back now, and Mr. Huo happens to be seriously ill! This is all very troublesome!"

“Then let’s take it one step at a time!” the old man said calmly. “Why don’t we start by finding a breakthrough with your cousins?”

"What should we do?" Lu Yongyu asked.

Lu Yongyu really didn't know much about these underground methods, so he could only look to the old evil man for help.

The old villain chuckled and said, "Easy, I don't believe those brothers are a united front!"

"Then I'll have to trouble you!" Lu Yongyu nodded.

"Don't mention it, sister-in-law, it's what we should do!" the old man chuckled and said, "But did you notice that your driver has been eavesdropping on our conversation?"

Lu Yongyu was startled and looked directly in front of the car, only to find that the driver's expression had changed.

Clearly, the other party had even bribed her driver.

The driver slammed on the brakes and then abandoned the car and fled the scene.

Lu Yongyu hurriedly said to the old man, "Quickly chase after him! Don't let him get away!"

But the old evil man wasn't in a hurry. He grabbed Lu Yongyu and said, "Don't worry, he can't escape!"

Sure enough, before the driver could even run two steps, several intelligence agents appeared and blocked his way.

The driver was forced to retreat to the side of the car.

The old man said calmly, "Still trying to run?"

The driver immediately broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly waved his hands, saying, "I won't run anymore, I won't run anymore!"

The old villain sneered and waved to his men.

One of his men used a single slap to knock the driver unconscious, then put him in the trunk.

They then found a quiet place in the rear-wheel drive vehicle to conduct the interrogation.

Lu Yongyu never expected that even the people around him had been bribed.

If she were to retaliate in any way, she would likely suffer a crushing defeat.

Thinking of this, Lu Yongyu felt a surge of hatred.

Upon arrival, the driver was woken up by an intelligence officer splashing him with a ladle of water.

The old villain toyed with a few small throwing knives in his hand and said calmly, "I won't waste any more time on nonsense. Tell me everything you know. If you don't or dare to lie to me, I'll make you put on a human knife-throwing performance!"

Seeing the gleaming knife in the old man's hand, the driver's legs went weak with fear.

He was just an ordinary person who had never seen anything like this before, so he could only spill everything he knew.

It turns out the driver was paid by Lu Yongquan to do this. (End of Chapter)
