"Tch."
Jin Duocan withdrew his hand and kicked the corpse of Che Taiku, his face betraying disdain.
"I already gave you a chance, but you still chose to lie to . Did you really think I was a fool? Such a big issue and you report it only now. What’s the point of keeping a traitor like you around?"
As he spoke, he retrieved a pair of white gloves from the drawer below, and struggled to drag the corpse to the window.
With great effort, he finally lifted it and tossed it out the window.
"Ha~ Ha~"
Jin Duocan took a couple of breaths.
"Still pretty heavy. I’ve long told this guy to lose weight, never listens, just causes trouble for others..."
He muttered to himself as he sat by the window for a while before getting up to call the guards outside to clean up the bloodstains on the ground.
"Clap clap clap..."
Suddenly, applause echoed without reason in the empty office.
"Who’s there!?"
Jin Duocan startled, turned sharply, and looked toward the source of the sound.
There he saw, at so unknown ti, a figure had appeared, currently sitting on the sofa, watching him with interest.
The figure was dressed in black, with golden thread outlining the edges of his clothing. A peculiar eye emblem adorned his chest, lending him an air of deep mystery.
"Who are you! When did you get here!?"
Jin Duocan quickly aid his gun at the man on the sofa.
"Clap clap clap..."
The man didn’t answer his question but clapped twice more before speaking in sowhat broken Korean:
"Mr. Jin’s performance is really impressive. Knowing about the breach long ago yet feigning ignorance to test your subordinate — your acting skills truly live up to the young master of the Jin Family."
The man stood up and slowly walked toward him, continuing to speak:
"But Mr. Jin is indeed ruthless, killing a longti subordinate just like that. Seems you quite often do such things..."
Jin Duocan watched the man’s approaching steps, his pupils tightened.
The man’s face was obscured by a hood; though not burly, he exuded a powerful pressure.
It felt as if a terrifying prehistoric beast stood before him, ready to devour him in one bite.
As Vice Chairman of Seven Stars Group and helm of the Jin Family, Jin Duocan had never been so utterly overwheld by another’s presence.
He could only feel a tightness in his chest, struggling for breath.
"Get out!!"
He shouted angrily, suddenly pulling the trigger.
The remaining seven bullets in the handgun fired straight at the man in black.
"BIUBIUBIUBIUBIU~"
A series of gunshots echoed through the empty office.
Yet the scene that unfolded left the ruthless corporate leader horrified.
The bullets, upon reaching the man’s side, seed to hit an invisible wall, all bouncing off.
One even grazed him, nearly hitting his arm.
"Clack clack clack clack clack clack~"
The gun’s bullets were already spent, but Jin Duocan kept chanically pulling the trigger, staring blankly at the man.
"This, this, this... How is this possible... You, who are you!?"
Jin Duocan snapped back, hastily retreating.
"Who am I?"
The man chuckled, teasing him:
"Mr. Jin certainly forgets easily. Just recently, you made a move against our people, and now forgot all about it?"
"You, your people...?"
Jin Duocan fell onto a chair, dazed.
He tried to calm himself, but couldn’t hide the panic on his face.
"You, you’re from Light Blue Starry Sky! How is this possible... Isn’t Light Blue Starry Sky a newly established group... Could it be you’ve really developed exoskeleton armor!?"
He stayed inford on the news.
Regarding Light Blue Starry Sky possibly having developed exoskeleton armor, he was naturally aware.
After all, Su Fu had effortlessly taken down a speeding Seven Stars sedan in front of so many people at the ti.
"Exoskeleton armor? Hmph, the frog in the well, I really don’t understand, where does such confidence in assassinating us co from?"
By now, the black-clad man had reached Jin Duocan, grabbed him, and lifted him easily.
"No, no, no! Let go!"
He scread, struggling wildly.
But no matter how he squird, he remained restrained.
As though bound by iron shackles, unable to break free.
"Soone! Co quickly! Yobani, you fool, what are you doing! You let soone sneak in and didn’t even know!?"
Rembering the guards outside, Jin Duocan shouted for help.
"Crash!"
The door opened.
But before he could show joy, he was stunned by the scene that t his eyes.
Entering from outside wasn’t the usual white guards, but a woman in the sa black-gold outfit.
She was tall and graceful, usually sparking Jin Duocan’s interest in making a move.
But not today, for behind her, he could vaguely see his guard team lying scattered in the hall, their fate unknown.
"You took ten seconds longer this ti."
The man glanced back at her, joking.
The woman in black ignored him and walked straight over to them.
"Let’s go."
Jin Duocan was dumbfounded.
"You, you guys..."
He stamred incoherently.
He clearly saw Yobani peek in earlier, yet turning around now, they were all dealt with? Not even TV dramas are this outrageous!
But recalling the male’s ability to block bullets just now, he realized.
The woman at the door was clearly in league with him, possessing the sa superhuman strength.
Thinking about it, there had been such commotion in the room, if his guards were capable, they’d have responded long ago.
"You, what exactly do you want... About Su Fu, it’s all a misunderstanding. My subordinate hid it from , I learned later..."
Jin Duocan scrambled to devise a ans of escape.
Yet the pair seed not to hear, ignoring him entirely.
The man rely pushed him to the window, seemingly intending to toss him out as well.
"No! Don’t kill ! What do you want! I have money! I can give you lots and lots! Just let go!"
The black-clad man seed vexed by his struggle.
Suddenly, he reached out, lightly tapping his head.
Instantly, a buzzing resonated in Jin Duocan’s consciousness, his vision blurred, and he fainted silently.
"Ah, finally quiet."
The man sighed with relief, then punched the office’s glass window.
Next second, a flash appeared beside the window, and a black anti-gravity car hovered outside.
"Let’s go, we’ve got him, just take him back."
The man opened the car door and stepped inside with Jin Duocan.
Behind him, the woman glanced at the disarrayed office, her eyes reflecting disdain, following him inside.
