Chapter 452: Eliminating Dissenters

A Qing was dumbfounded.

For many years, he had been loyal to the Head of the Family and had never once had a divided heart; how could the Head of the Family suspect him?

"I didn't."

A Qing knelt before Zhu Yiwen with a "thud" and explained himself: "Head of the Family, my life was saved by you. Ever since then, this life of mine has belonged to you. A Qing has never done anything to betray you. I swear to heaven, I absolutely have not betrayed you."

The gaze Zhu Yiwen fixed upon him held no warmth, and he said sinisterly: "Forget it. You were bought off by Sheng Hanyu long ago; don't think I don't know. Now you want to lure me out to walk right into a trap? You're dreaming."

"Bang!"

The incomparably loyal lackey looked on in astonishment as his master fired a shot at him, and then his gaze remained fixed on this moment forever!

A Qing fell, dying with his eyes wide open in resentment.

……

Sheng Hanyu stood by the window, the corners of his mouth curling upward. Perfect.

He had used a Counter-espionage Strategy on Zhu Yiwen, and Zhu Yiwen had taken the bait.

That man was naturally suspicious, and since A Qing had been sent outside by him, the situation outside was unfavorable; it was impossible for him to only suspect the people on the Island and not suspect the people outside.

But Zhu Yiwen was not stupid, so making him shift his target of suspicion onto A Qing was not easy.

Thus, Sheng Hanyu deliberately acted mysterious; the less he said, the more Zhu Yiwen would let his imagination run wild.

Over these past few days, Sheng Hanyu had not been idle; he would occasionally display a deep familiarity with the outside world in front of the servants to prove his innocence.

Every trace of Sheng Hanyu's behavior was reported back to Zhu Yiwen.

Of course, when the servants reported these things, they would exaggerate to some extent.

They would mix in their own analyses and the things they knew.

The logic was simple: the greater the suspicion outside, the smaller the suspicion on the Island.

Furthermore, A Qing was not well-liked on the Island; he was only loyal to Zhu Yiwen alone and was indifferent and arrogant toward others. At a time like this, if the dirty water wasn't splashed on him, who would it be splashed on?

And the most important factor that caused A Qing's death was a letter.

A "Secret Letter" that Sheng Hanyu had written to A Qing!

This was when Zhu Yiwen was investigating most strictly on the Island; it was in full swing, and everyone felt in danger.

At that time, the biggest "suspect" was one of the bodyguards guarding Sheng Hanyu, who had already been ordered by Zhu Yiwen to be locked in the Dungeon.

This person had a lover who was a "beauty" on the Island.

There was a rule on the Island that "beauties" were there to serve guests and could not develop romantic feelings for bodyguards or servants on the Island, but the two of them had gone and gotten together anyway; Sheng Hanyu had discovered this but said nothing.

Then, after this bodyguard was locked in the Dungeon, he called for the "beauty" and had her quietly place this letter in A Qing's room to hide it.

Sheng Hanyu told her this was the only way to save her lover.

The "beauty" was desperate and at her wit's end; at this moment, any method was a lifeline to her, and she had to try it.

That "Secret Letter" worked.

The day after she hid it, Zhu Yiwen went to A Qing's room and stayed there alone for half a day; his expression was very ugly when he came out.

He had indeed gone to rummage through things to see if there were any traces, and as it turned out, there really were!

But if it were only that, Zhu Yiwen could not have fully believed that A Qing had betrayed him.

What was fatal was that he returned the next day!

As soon as A Qing returned, he demanded that Zhu Yiwen leave the Island; he died without ever knowing that the "Secret Letter" Sheng Hanyu had written to him contained exactly this point.

It was precisely because of this that Zhu Yiwen developed the intent to kill A Qing and personally eliminated him.

Sheng Hanyu "guided" things on the Island, while Shi Youxuan created momentum outside; it truly relied on the two of them's understanding and tacit agreement!

Which was what Sheng Hanyu called "Telepathy."

But unfortunately, Zhu Yiwen did not believe it; he ultimately believed that A Qing was a traitor.

Zhu Yiwen losing A Qing was like a tiger losing its claws.

Sheng Hanyu watched as the people on the Island threw A Qing into the sea, and he knew his opportunity had arrived.

……

"Send the coordinates to this number. You don't need to say anything, just send it." Sheng Hanyu handed a small slip of paper with a phone number on it to the bodyguard who had just been released from the Dungeon.

The bodyguard's eyes widened in terror, his head shook like a rattle-drum, and he even put his hands behind his back to refuse directly: "No, I can't do things for you. If the Head of the Family finds out, I'm dead for sure."

Sheng Hanyu smiled slightly: "A Qing didn't do things for me either, didn't he also die for sure?"

The bodyguard: "He did things for you; you are in cahoots. Don't try to sow discord regarding my loyalty to the Head of the Family; I will absolutely not betray the Head of the Family."

Proving loyalty now was useless.

Sheng Hanyu did not argue with him and said: "How about this, go find Luolina, ask her why you were released, and then decide whether to help me or not."

……

The bodyguard left and soon returned.

He looked nervous: "Just this once?"

Sheng Hanyu: "Just this once."

The bodyguard: "The number."

So Sheng Hanyu wrote a new string of numbers for him; the original slip of paper had already been destroyed.

The bodyguard dialed the number, quickly told the other party his location, and then hung up.

He looked even more nervous: "W-will this person call me back?"

"Rest assured, they absolutely won't!"

……

When Shi Youxuan received the call, it could simply be described as ecstatic.

But she did not lose her reason; she immediately notified the International Criminal Police and told them the location of the Island.

"Miss Shi, is your source of information reliable?"

The police were not very convinced; they had so much advanced equipment and had searched for so many days without any discoveries, yet she could know where Sheng Hanyu was hidden while staying in the hotel without stepping out the door?

It sounded like a pipe dream.

Shi Youxuan was very serious: "I guarantee that my information is absolutely reliable. If you don't believe me, I will take people there to rescue him myself. When the person is rescued, don't feel like you've lost face."

She was truly not joking.

Nor was she speaking nonsense.

Wang Yong could easily call up a hundred or eighty brothers capable of fighting without any problem at all!

The location of the Island was within the jurisdiction of L Country; as long as she gave the order, Wang Yong could immediately take his brothers and charge over.

It was just that with so many people acting, it would inevitably alert the enemy.

She only knew the location and knew nothing about the situation on the island.

Shi Youxuan was anxious to save him, which was true, but she had not lost her reason and knew what she could and could not do.

However, if the International Criminal Police did not believe the intelligence she provided, then she would have to make other plans.

"Miss Shi, please don't be agitated. It's not that we don't believe you, but for the sake of Mr. Sheng's safety, we must be cautious."

Shi Youxuan accepted this reason.

Early morning.

Three speedboats approached the Island silently, and over a dozen well-trained men quietly went ashore.

These men split into several teams and crept over from different directions.

Soon, someone reached the place where the servants lived and used a knife to threaten them: "Don't make a sound, tell me where Sheng Hanyu is?"

The sharp Dagger was pressed tightly against the carotid artery; a slight cut inward could cause death on the spot.

The servant swallowed hard and said with difficulty: "Don't kill me, he is, he is in the Villa in the very center of the island."

The Dagger moved away, and immediately after, he felt a heavy blow to the back of his neck and knew nothing more.

When the police surrounded the Villa, they were finally discovered by the bodyguards.

"Bang!"

A bodyguard fired a shot; although it didn't hit anyone, it alerted everyone else on the island.
