Chapter 563: Anna Is Dead?

Lu Xiao's expression was extremely solemn, and she opened, saying.

"Currently the safety of the Yun family is already the highest‑level mission of the Dragon Group. So Jiang Feng, if you look for Miss Yun at this point in time, it is very likely to fall within the Dragon Group's investigative sight."

Her voice was pressed down very low, but every word was clear.

In her eyes there were a few shades of worry and a few shades of helplessness.

Lu Xiao's meaning was very clear, and Jiang Feng also understood.

If Jiang Feng only appeared here, given Lu Xiao's relationship with him, it could naturally be treated as if nothing had happened.

But once Jiang Feng sees Yun Mengrou, out of Responsibility, Lu Xiao must report the whole affair upward.

By then, Jiang Feng may have to face an investigation by the entire Dragon Group!

In fact, the situation is even more serious than Lu Xiao said.

Throughout the Yun family, now almost everyone is under the military's most stringent protection.

And before General Yun Yi was assassinated, he happened to be leading a top‑secret military operation.

Currently the higher‑ups Doubt that General Yun's assassination and the Yun family's suffering are both due to this top‑secret operation.

And this plan concerns the empire's war preparedness for the next fifty years.

Therefore, once suspected of being involved, it is truly hard to get clean.

Even if Lu Xiao believes Jiang Feng is fine, with her current Standing, she absolutely cannot protect Jiang Feng.

But Jiang Feng was silent for a moment, yet still spoke.

"No wonder nobody answers when I call her."

Lu Xiao nodded and said frankly.

"The Dragon Group has already listed Miss Yun's mobile as a confidential channel. Apart from the Yun family, any outside call cannot reach her."

With those words spoken, Jiang Feng nodded, but still said.

"Group Leader Lu, since it is so, I still want to see Yun Mengrou. Or at least see her assistant Anna."

He paused briefly, and his Tone became firm.

"She and I are friends; after such a big incident, I cannot remain silent and indifferent."

With those words spoken, Lu Xiao's expression darkened.

Her eye sockets tinged slightly red, and her voice became a bit low.

"Miss Yun's assistant Anna, three days ago, died from a bullet while protecting Miss Yun."

With those words spoken, Jiang Feng was instantly stunned.

Anna is dead?

That shrewd, capable female assistant died at such a beautiful age?

In Jiang Feng's Brain, Anna's likeness surfaced.

She always wore a professional suit, her hair neatly pinned, and her face bore a professional Laughter.

She acted with thunderous efficiency, arranging Yun Mengrou's work and life in perfect order.

She was also very courteous to Jiang Feng; each meeting she greeted with a smile.

In Jiang Feng's view, Anna could also be counted as his friend.

She was not a simple assistant, but Yun Mengrou's most trusted person, her left and right arm.

Now, she is dead.

Who actually did it?

Jiang Feng asked coldly.

"Who did it?"

His voice was very cold, cold as winter ice.

A flash of murderous intent passed through his eyes, not aimed at Lu Xiao but at those killers.

Seeing Jiang Feng's complexion already darken, Lu Xiao immediately explained.

"The Dragon Group has already begun investigation, but the gunmen are very professional. On‑site ballistic analysis shows the killers number at least three, all trained snipers. They were hidden on the rooftop of the opposite building, using military‑grade sniper rifles. One shot killed, leaving no trace."

She paused briefly, then continued.

"We are tracing the surveillance of that building, but the footage was deliberately destroyed during that period. Currently clues are few, more time is needed."

Jiang Feng was silent for a moment, then lifted his head, looking at Lu Xiao, his eyes firm.

"Lu Town Guard, let me in. With me there, Yun Mengrou will not have any mishap!"

His voice was not loud, but every word was powerful.

Lu Xiao wanted to say something else, but noticed Jiang Feng's face full of murderous aura, and instantly knew Jiang Feng was already angry.

She was well aware of how strong Jiang Feng is; before, she was only a Grandmaster and could not perceive much.

But now she is already in the Heavenly Human Realm, her perception being many times stronger than before.

Yet facing the Jiang Feng of this moment, she still felt immense fear.

That fear did not stem from a crushing of power, but from something indescribable.

Jiang Feng stood there, doing nothing.

Just his calm face made her feel as if facing a sleeping beast.

Lu Xiao clenched his teeth and was silent for a moment.

Then she said no more, turned, took an access card from her pocket, and swiped it on the lock.

Click!

The lock opened.

Lu Xiao pushed the door open and stepped aside.

Jiang Feng gave her a glance, nodded slightly, then stepped into the house.

Inside the door was a very large living room, luxuriously decorated, but at this moment it seemed desolate.

The curtains were drawn tightly, the lights were off, and the lighting was dim.

A faint fragrance lingered in the air, the perfume that Yun Mengrou often uses.

Jiang Feng could feel the atmosphere here was oppressive, as if something pressed on a person's chest, making it hard to breathe.

Jiang Feng entered the living room, scanned the area, then his gaze fell on the sofa.

Yun Mengrou sat on the sofa, wearing a white nightgown, hair loose, face unmade.

Her complexion was very pale, her eyes were swollen, as if she had been crying for a long time.

Her Empty Gaze stared at some spot on the coffee table, motionless.

She Throughout person collapsed onto the sofa, curled into a ball, like an injured small animal.

Her face was full of an expression of grief beyond words, seeming uninterested in everything around her.

She Silk didn't notice anyone entering the house.

Most crucially, her dress bore None incredibly Clarity bloodstains…

Lu Xiao said that when the ambush occurred, Anna blocked a fatal shot and fell into Yun Mengrou's arms.

So for three days, Yun Mengrou neither ate nor drank, and didn't even change clothes.

Until Jiang Feng walked to her, crouched before her, and called out.

"Yun Mengrou."

His voice was light and gentle, as if coaxing an injured child.

Yun Mengrou's body Trembled slightly, Slow lifted her head.

Her eyes were heavily swollen, Tears still in her eye sockets.

"Jiang... Jiang Feng?"

Her voice was hoarse, as if she had cried her throat raw.

"Why did you come?"

Jiang Feng looked at her and said.

"I couldn't reach you by phone, so I came to check."

Yun Mengrou's Mouth trembled, Tears welled up again.

She suddenly threw herself into Jiang Feng's arms, both hands tightly clutching his neck, burying her face on his Shoulders.

"Wuwu... Jiang Feng... Anna... Anna is dead..."

Her body was in violent Trembling, Crying was loud and mournful, like a child who had lost support.

"She died protecting me... those people were after me... Anna blocked the bullet for me..."

Yun Mengrou Crying breathlessly, Tears and snot smeared Jiang Feng's Shoulders.

"It's all my fault... it's all my fault... if it weren't me... Anna wouldn't have died..."

Her voice was halting, full of self-reproach.

Jiang Feng said nothing, just reached out and gently patted her back, repeatedly, lightly, steadily.

He felt Yun Mengrou's body was cold, as if frozen by something, continuously Trembling.

He held her tightly.

"It's not your fault."

His voice was light, but firm.

"Anna won't blame you."

Yun Mengrou Crying even more, Throughout person curled in Jiang Feng's arms, like a wronged little girl.
