Pick Up a Killer as Girlfriend Chapter 880 880: Clues

Half an hour later...

Inside the supposed mastermind's house.

"What? Tanaka Haraichi is dead? How is that possible? I just spoke with him on the phone."

"He died right after you hung up the phone."

"Then why didn't you call sooner? Have you caught the people involved?"

"No, we haven't..."

"Fools, it must be that girl from the Muren family causing trouble. You must find out who killed Tanaka Haraichi imdiately."

"Yes, sir..."

After hanging up the phone, the mastermind was quite unsettled, pacing back and forth in the room. Feeling irritated, he had a glass of red wine but realized it wasn't the best idea, so he imdiately called the bodyguards downstairs.

He had ordered soone to kill Bai Xue but failed, so Bai Xue would surely retaliate. Since Tanaka Haraichi had already fallen into their hands, he must be extra cautious himself.

"Hello, tell everyone to stay alert during this period. No sleeping during night shifts, or they'll be fired."

"Yes, boss..."

With so many bodyguards around, he should be safe. The house has top-notch security technologies and several guard dogs patrolling. That Bai Xue wouldn't be foolish enough to send soone here to assassinate him.

So, have a good night's sleep...

As he approached the bed, the mastermind suddenly felt a wave of dizziness, and his cheeks felt burning hot. His heart started to beat noticeably faster.

What's going on? He had just had a physical check-up last week, and nothing was wrong with his heart... This...

Faster and faster... The mastermind began to realize sothing was amiss, reaching for his phone to call for help, but his hands were shaking uncontrollably, unable even to hold the phone steadily.

"Help, soone, help... soone..."

Thud... His hoarse voice couldn't carry, but his convulsing body knocked over the wine glass, which fell to the ground with a crash.

Soon after, the guards outside pushed open the door, and when they arrived, their boss had already drawn his last breath...

In fact, everyone involved knew of this hidden fight. The boss had sent people to assassinate Bai Xue, and Bai Xue didn't even need to investigate to know who was behind it. The opponent also knew Bai Xue wanted his life.

Both of them were clear about this, and naturally others could see the signs, but in such matters, hard evidence was needed.

Tanaka Haraichi was murdered, but being the head of a criminal organization, it's not sothing that can be openly discussed, and as for the recently deceased mastermind? The real cause of death couldn't be determined. So even if Bai Xue were suspected, what could be done?

"Hello. The matter has been dealt with."

"Great. When will you be back? I'm waiting for you..."

"No need, I'll have a late-night snack before returning."

"What about Sasaki..."

"Don't worry, it's very clean. They won't find out."

"Oh, oh..." Bai Xue hung up the phone, a bit stunned, mumbling, "Can't he buy the late-night snack and bring it back for all to eat together? Back in XG, wasn't that how we did it?"

With the kind of security systems like Sasaki's, Xiaofan could easily disregard them, and all those bodyguards and guard dogs were essentially useless.

When one's power reaches a certain level, they can practically walk unhindered in any country.

Xiaofan could imagine the level of deterrence Ren Zhongtian had on other countries in the past and why the Assassination Order was willing to pay such high prices to take his life.

Throwing poison into the red wine, as long as the other guy drank it, it would gradually take effect.

Tang Tianyou had said that this poison vaporizes quickly in the bloodstream but can sustain in alcohol for half an hour, and when the forensic team arrives, it would surely be after half an hour, so there was no need to worry about what would be discovered.

Successfully assisting Bai Xue twice with seemingly daunting tasks has allowed Bai Xue's status to rise.

Taking down the Dasheng Conglorate, eliminating an opponent. Moreover, within a few days, the Three Extres Squad was swiftly absorbed under his command.

And when Shen Zuimo's life countdown reached twenty-eight days, the second episode of fainting finally occurred, and this ti, Shen Zuimo's physical condition had already drastically changed. Her complexion turned increasingly pale, and the active toxic cells in her blood once again matured and divided...

The search for the Three-color Figs in the country continued unceasingly. However, such miraculous things couldn't be simply found, and even if found, creating an antidote might not necessarily detoxify Shen Zuimo's body.

"Bai Xue, how many more tasks do you need to do to reach the position you desire?" Xiaofan once again broached the topic with Bai Xue.

"If everything goes smoothly, it should be done in about half a month." Bai Xue said honestly.

"Isn't there a quicker way? I can help." Half a month, with Zuimo's condition deteriorating, even if the antidote was found then, who knows if it would still work on her.

"Don't worry. As long as the antidote is administered within forty-nine days, she can still be saved. Don't be anxious; there will be a way."

"And what about other leads? Is there anyone who has the antidote..." Xiaofan inquired again.

"I... haven't found out..."

"Is it that you haven't looked, or you couldn't find it?" Seeing Bai Xue hesitating, Xiaofan was genuinely agitated.

"Captain, of course, I've looked."

"I refuse to believe with your current connections that such a minor thing can't be uncovered." Xiaofan continued questioning.

"I... you can think what you want, I really am helping you find it."

"You're busy handling your own affairs every day, where do you find the ti to investigate for ? If you're just trying to use , many opportunities will co. Don't you know that Zuimo's situation is critical?"

"Captain... don't say that." Right at this mont, Leng Yue suddenly walked in.

"Leng Yue..." Bai Xue was montarily stunned upon seeing Leng Yue.

"Captain, Bai Xue hasn't stopped looking for clues about the antidote for you. We've actually discovered that many people have had that antidote, but we've learned from other channels they've consud them like Great Nourishing Pills. Also, even if new antidotes are found, the reason for not telling you is to keep you safe." Leng Yue, unable to see Bai Xue being wronged, blurted everything out impulsively.

"Leng Yue, don't say anything." Bai Xue's face changed, and before she could speak, Leng Yue had said everything.

"Keeping safe? Then where is this dangerous place?" Xiaofan, quick-witted, imdiately picked up on the key point in Leng Yue's previous statent.
