Reborn in 1993, Dark Sea

That night, An Xiaohai slept very soundly without any nightmares. When he opened his eyes, it was almost lunchtime.

After washing up and eating something, An Xiaohai went to Kunji's place to look at the surveillance footage.

Everything was normal, and no suspicious people appeared. I only saw Pan Zhuangzhuang coming and going in the vicinity several times, probably setting a trap.

With nothing to do for the time being, An Xiaohai was just thinking about whether to take this opportunity to analyze the information in Tian Qiaoguang's database when the phone rang.

An Xiaohai picked up the phone and saw that there was no caller ID. He frowned slightly and pressed the call button.

"Same as always, to the beach, I'll call back in 20 minutes," it was 073.

After hanging up the phone, An Xiaohai calmed his excitement and immediately walked towards the beach. 073 calling personally meant he must have made some important discovery; otherwise, it would have been Mai Xiaoyu calling.

The 073 is indeed quite efficient.

"Xiao Hai, this might be a bit troublesome. I've already checked out the Yulong Wanghai residential area, and the results are roughly in line with your expectations, but the situation is much more serious."

Let me explain step by step.

The Yulong Wanghai Villa District was built in 1982 and consists of 17 buildings, 16 of which are detached villas and one is the management center.

The villa area is built on the mountainside, and from any villa, you can overlook most of the beautiful scenery of Xiaolangsha.

The company that developed this property was called Dapeng Real Estate. Shortly after completing the Yulong Wanghai villa area, Dapeng Real Estate was deregistered.

Then in 90, the Yulong Wanghai villa area underwent a year and a half of upgrade and renovation, and the project was undertaken by a construction company under Hu Haikong.

Xiao Hai, what do you think?

"How do I see it..." An Xiaohai thought for a moment, "I think it's quite strange."

"What's strange about it?"

"In 1982... I still have some impression of that place. Back then, that area was very desolate, and even the roads in the passageway were in terrible condition. I think that even if Zhu Polong and his group wanted to build a treasury, they shouldn't have chosen that place."

Such a desolate place can indeed avoid public attention, but it's not safe either. In the wilderness, if someone makes a move, wouldn't you be helpless?

Furthermore, precisely because of its desolation, the cost of the entire project will be astonishingly high. Just connecting the water and electricity is a frightening expense, not to mention the various issues such as the sewage system and garbage transportation.

In those days, the development of such a high-end villa area in that place seemed bizarre to me. Moreover, the villa area standing halfway up the mountain was too conspicuous, which seemed somewhat out of place with the style of Zhupolong.

That's so strange...

"So you mean that this Royal Dragon Seaview Villa area might not have been built as Pig Dragon's treasury in the first place, and that it actually had other uses."

Zhu Polong only took a liking to this place later...it must have been around 90 when he saw its potential, then had Hu Haikong make some modifications, ultimately turning it into his gold mine.

"Yes, that's what I think."

"Hmm, not bad, your judgment is basically the same as ours, let's move on to that point."

Secondly, there are the homeowners in the community.

There are 16 villas owned by 14 people. Half of the owners are foreigners who are not in China most of the year, three are from Hong Kong, and the other four are business owners from mainland China.

Two people each bought two villas, and these four villas are connected together, located at the innermost part of the villa area.

Based on your description, the message your younger brother named Kunji brought back was that he happened to take photos of Zhu Polong in the innermost villa. In other words, Zhu Polong is very likely one of the two owners who bought two villas.

I have obtained the basic information of the two owners who bought two villas; one is a man and the other a woman.

The man's name is Hong Jiangbo. He is a businessman with a large business empire. He owns two building materials companies, four investment companies, three foreign trade companies, and two finance companies.

Hong Jiangbo is very likely Zhu Polong; we are trying to obtain his detailed information.

"Where's the woman? What's her name?"

"Xiao Hai, judging from your tone, you seem to be more concerned about this woman."

"Yes, I am indeed very interested in her."

Why?

"I heard Lai Donglin mention that when Hu Haikong was seeing Zhu Polong, there was a woman involved. Her name has the character 'Ting' in it, which I told you about last time."

I feel that this woman might be a more crucial figure.

I've been thinking that it's a bit illogical that Zhu Polong makes himself so mysterious, with so few people knowing who he is, yet everyone knows he's a big fat man.

What if this fat man is just a stand-in? That would make more sense, and the woman with the character "Ting" in her name who has been appearing and disappearing around him would be even more suspicious.

There was a brief silence on the other end of the line before 073 took a deep breath and spoke: "Xiao Hai, your intuition is very accurate!"

In the Yulong Wanghai villa district, there is another woman who owns two villas. Her registered name is Jiang Ting. Her identity is that of a returned overseas Chinese, but her public identity is that she was sent by Hong Jiangbo's overseas partners to supervise him, and she has always been his secretary.

There's not much information about Jiang Ting, but I think she's likely an old acquaintance of ours, which is why I said this might be a bit troublesome.

"You mean I can't touch this Royal Dragon Seaview Villa complex?"

"No, that's not what I meant. I've already said that as long as we don't directly interfere, it doesn't matter if you cause a major upheaval."

What I'm worried about now is your safety. Do you remember that international assassin organization I told you about?

"Caos?"

"Yes, it's them. If this Jiang Ting is really our old acquaintance, then there must be someone like Cao around her."

"073, could you tell me if this Caos organization is all foreigners? Or are there Chinese people in it too? The person I saw last time didn't seem like a foreigner."

"The members of Caos come from all countries, and of course there are Chinese members as well. In fact, there are quite a few of them."

Caos' organization is relatively loose; any professional assassin who meets their standards can apply to join.

After joining Caos, they will receive a specific information channel, through which Caos issues tasks to its members.

After completing a mission, Caos members only need to provide the corresponding proof to receive payment.

Therefore, Caos members basically have no superiors, and the vast majority don't even know where the organization is located, only that it originated in the West.

"Is it alright for you to tell me about these things?"

"No problem, Xiao Hai. You need to know that a pure assassin organization, even if it is an international professional assassin organization, poses a very limited threat to us."

The existence of Caos is no secret internationally. They even actively promote their organization to get more missions. Caos are far removed from ordinary people; it is the big shots who fear them.

So, knowing about Caos' situation doesn't really matter to you.

However, the organization to which the demons belong is the complete opposite.

They weren't targeting any individual, but rather an entire country. Their consistent tactic is to silently infiltrate a nation, create chaos, and ultimately reap huge profits from that chaos.

The chaos they create can be extremely harmful to the people of a country, and in severe cases, it can even destroy a country.

Therefore, it's best not to expose the organization the demon belongs to, as it could easily cause unnecessary panic.

"I understand..." An Xiaohai nodded gently.

Aren't you scared?

"It's alright," An Xiaohai said with a soft breath. "I've said it before, the reason why a person seems strong is because we can't find him or get in touch with him."

Once a person's true colors are revealed, he becomes just an ordinary person.

Now, they are the prey, and I am the hunter lurking in the shadows. Why should I be afraid?

"What you said makes some sense. I knew you wouldn't give up. Here's what we'll do: I'll have He Xiaohu go find you and have him protect you and keep an eye on your movements."

But He Xiaohu won't act rashly unless you face a life-or-death crisis. I hope you can understand.

"Thank you so much!"

"Don't you mind me spying on you?"

"No, not at all. In this situation, I would ask for it even if you didn't bring it up. Only with your people supervising me and telling me what I can and cannot do can I truly act freely."

"What if I ask you to abandon the whole plan?"

"Then give up."

"reason?"

"I'm only acting out of personal grudges, while you're acting out of national and ethnic grievances."

"That's all?"

"Isn't that enough?"

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone.

"An Xiaohai, thank you so much! On behalf of all my comrades in the security department, thank you for your understanding!"

Call ~

073 let out a breath: "He Xiaohu will be here soon. Arrange a suitable identity for him. You can arrange everything for him. Do whatever you want. You can also arrange for him to help you. If there's anything he can't do, he'll remind you."

"Okay, with him by my side, I can finally relax."

"That's all for now. I'll contact you again once I have more information."

"073, I have one more question."

"you say."

"Why are you suddenly worried about my safety?"

"Because there is more than one demon in the den of demons."

"I understand, okay, goodbye."

"goodbye."
