Chapter 740: Untitled
Mr. Brown was utterly offed by Su Man’s lukewarm attitude and thus led his special forces team away in a huff. Since the search yielded no results, Su Man pursuing the case would cause Mr. Brown to lose his job.
Su Ruyu coldly laughed. They had received information about Mr. Brown entering the country with over ten elite Interpol agents last night. Everybody was able to figure out that Kahn had deliberately led the Interpol agents to their doorstep. Only Kahn was capable of such despicable moves.
How did he get his hands on a search warrant? Su Man was baffled.
His Majesty’s seal…
Su Man called Yashan, and she told him that the search warrant was indeed genuine as Interpol had used its connections, not to mention how they could not afford to overlook the fact five internationally wanted criminals were in the country.
After Su Man heard it, he remained mum and ended the call.
Thankfully, they were well-informed. Since Mr. Brown was not faster than them, the huge Su’s mansion, along with the well-concealed entrances to the basement, made Mr. Brown’s search futile.
Kahn…
“Chu Li, it’s time to flush him out. He’ll decide where and when he wants to meet us,” Su Ruyu solemnly said. It was not a good idea to let things be. Anyway, they would have to eventually face Kahn. Them taking the initiative to flush him out seemed a tad more direct.
They did not like to beat around the bush with Kahn, who was despicable enough to involve Interpol. She did not like it as she felt that the affairs of the underworld had nothing to do with anyone but themselves. Implicating Interpol would only inconvenience them both.
Even more importantly, Chu Li and all were too obvious targets.
Interpol’s most wanted criminals…
“Yes, my thoughts exactly. Given how headstrong Kahn has become, beating around the bush when dealing with him would make him even more cunning. If we hit him where it hurts, it will be better off for us,” Chu Li flatly said.
After some discussion, everybody agreed to have Eleven send a message to Kahn.
The Mo brothers were guessing that Kahn would not necessarily meet them. Lo and behold, Kahn did not directly reply to them about the meeting but instead wanted Ye Wei and Eleven in exchange for ending the standoff.
If not, he would perish with them.
The Mo brothers coldly laughed at how he wanted to kill Ye Wei and have Eleven for himself. He was too deep in his wishful thinking. He should have known well enough they would never accept his conditions.
He was surely confident.
Following Chu Li’s rejection, Kahn was enraged, and the negotiations fell.
Little did they expect Kahn’s attitude to change after a night when he agreed to meet them at a castle midway up the mountain with simple conditions: Ye Wei, Eleven, and Su Ruyu must be present.
In agreement, Chu Li quickly replied.
Both of them agreed to meet three days later.
Ye Wei looked at her leg and knew that she would not be recovering anytime soon in three days. What should she do? With danger lurking in the castle, she would certainly implicate them as she was definitely the weakest link.
Given how capable Kahn was, only Mo Shitian and Eleven could defeat him. With the Russian operatives in force, a huge fight would ensue. She had to be able to defend herself to allow everyone to safely retreat.
But the injury in her leg…
Would not heal in such a short time.
“Wei Wei, you don’t have to go,” Mo Jue said. Her leg injury would impede her in a fight, and any oversight on his part would put Ye Wei in danger.
He absolutely would not allow her to be the slightest wounded.
“No can do. Kahn has insisted that I be present. If I do not turn up, he will stop at nothing,” Ye Wei said.
Black J thought for a moment and said, “That’s easy. Somebody can disguise themselves as you. Since Kahn would not be able to exactly tell whether you are really you until he is up close, he can’t do anything when he learns that you aren’t you when you have reached the castle.”
Everybody concurred.
“Who will act as me?” Ye Wei asked. Ping-er was too young, and everybody else had to step up. Since Rong Yan had no skills, she would not allow Rong Yan to take that risk.
“I’ll do it!” Su Ruhua piped up.
Ye Wei was slightly taken aback and could not help but look at the Mo brothers who were gritting their teeth. “No, it’s too dangerous.”
“If Wei Wei is going up against me, she may not necessarily win against me.” Su Ruhua smiled. While she was not as capable as Old Witch and Mo Shitian, she was not a slouch and could easily defend herself.
Chu Li and Black J felt that it was feasible. Given her temperament, Su Ruhua was the best candidate to impersonate Ye Wei. Su Ruyu and Mo Shitian did not say a word.
A moment later, the Mo brothers nodded in agreement. Su Ruhua hence quietly sat aside and listened to their plan.
“I’ll remain to protect Wei Wei,” Mo Jue simply said.
“You can’t!” Ye Wei was the first to object. She smiled alluringly and said, “Seriously? If I remain behind, and so do you, who would believe you? Aren’t you clearly telling Kahn that I am at Su Man’s place?”
Everybody nodded. Su Ruyu then said, “Ping-er, Su Man, Bai Ye, and Rong Yan shall stay behind. Everyone else, all hands on deck.”
To prevent Kahn from attempting a diversion, Su Man had to remain in the Su’s mansion as it was his turf. In the event of a diversionary hit, Bai Ye and he should take care of it and hence protect their rear flank.
Considering they were already outnumbered, all hands had to be on deck to keep up the fight against the Russian operatives. If too many of them stayed behind, they would be disadvantaged.
Chu Li grunted and said, “Master, there are some capable fighters around Oman that I’ll deploy over.”
Su Ruyu nodded. Mo Ye thought and felt that all should be fine since Birmingham and Mo Jue’s Knights of the Apocalypse would be able to make it in time. Despite how capable the Russian operatives were, Kahn would only be able to mobilize so many of them.
What they were most afraid of was the kind of traps that Kahn would lay for them. That was of utmost importance.
Mo Shitian played with the teacup in his hands, remaining silent throughout since nobody sought his opinion. As everybody here was of standing, they all had their own perspectives on how to take on Kahn.
Besides, they were a little afraid of Daddy Mo’s suggestions, which would be too intense and harsh. It was not their style.
Rong Yan felt her eyelids twitch.
Something seemed amiss, but she could not put a finger on it…
The twitching of the left eye was a good omen, whereas the twitching of the right eye was a bad omen.
…Why was her right eye twitching?
