687: Chapter 687: Lethal Threat!

Chance Encounter!

Threatening me?

Wu Jie snorted with a cold laugh.

“What’s with all the nonsense?”

“Do you have evidence to prove that it was me who messed with your what, Night Pot Organization?”

Edson shouted angrily, “It’s not Night Pot, it’s Northern Fox!

The fox of the Arctic Circle, understand?”

Wu Jie shrugged his shoulders and curled his lips disdainfully.

Getting annoyed by weirdos like this really made it tough to earn points.

Being hated by the top brass of the Northern Fox Organization—how rare is that!

Seeing Wu Jie’s shameless, rogue-ish smirk, Edson was so angry that he was burning livid.

Even the high-level executives remotely directing him couldn’t help it anymore.

“Take it!

Our chairman wants to have a word with you personally!”

Edson took off the communicator, which looked like an Apple cordless Bluetooth earpiece.

“What do you mean?

Blocking my way in the dead of night, blabbering about what?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about—I’m giving you one minute to clear the road!”

Edson was completely enraged.

He really hadn’t expected

to run into such a low-life scum.

Playing dumb, refusing to admit anything.

After all that had been said, the Northern Fox Organization had even made a major concession, yet he still wanted to deny any wrongdoing!

Did he really think he could do whatever he pleased on the Tang Family’s territory in Tianyuan?

“Mr.

Wu, I’m here on behalf of the Northern Fox Organization, out of goodwill to negotiate with you!”

“The matter involving your wife was indeed our fault—we shouldn’t have refused to provide compensation!”

“But we have learned our lesson, and we’re willing to pay you an extra three billion Gold Coins.

What more do you want?”

“Can’t you be a bit more reasonable?

We could still collaborate well in the future—if we really fall out, it’s bad for everyone!”

Edson’s eyes were intense as he stared fixedly at Wu Jie.

He was nearly clenching his fists, his speech forceful and emphatic.

It was as if he was always ready to punch Wu Jie hard at any moment.

Wu Jie’s sneering gradually subsided, and he asked with a frown,

“What do you mean?

You’re threatening me?

Who do you think you are?”

“What’s this ‘falling out isn’t good for anyone’?

What are you trying to do?”

“Do you want to resort to kidnapping and extortion, or assassination as revenge?

Don’t sneak around—come at me now!”

Edson’s eyes widened fiercely, almost losing control on the spot.

And at that moment, a shout came through the ‘earpiece’.

Edson had to hurriedly put it on and listen to Chairman Lepuron’s latest instructions.

After listening, Edson’s fury subsided by half, and even a hint of fear flickered in his eyes.

“Don’t provoke him for now; he has too many of our important secrets, especially the personnel files of the organization’s members.

If he makes them public or provides them to various national intelligence security departments, we’re done for!

So, we absolutely can’t fall out with him right away!”

Lepuron ordered sternly.

Of course, people in this world have names and don’t all come from nowhere.

The Northern Fox Organization had been established for many years, with global influence.

Essentially, it’s like a large multinational company.

Only, they engaged in dirty business that couldn’t be revealed to the public.

Since it functioned like a corporation, there inevitably were personnel files, clearly recording names, genders, places of origin, family, and other information.

Personnel files made management easier, and in case someone within the organization defected, they also facilitated tracing, so the data was always the most authentic.

But what about now?

Wu Jie had stolen untold amounts of data, and he most certainly had the personnel files in his possession as well.

Since the Northern Fox Organization was engaged in dirty business, its members were criminals by nature.

For any nation, they were targets that needed to be suppressed and arrested.

If Wu Jie provided the personnel files to the police forces of various countries, then there would indeed be trouble.

Everyone in the Northern Fox Organization, from top to bottom, would likely become wanted criminals.

What then, collectively alter identities and undergo plastic surgery?

In today’s world, fighting terrorist crime is a mainstream social thought, in line with the interests of people across nations.

If Wu Jie truly decided to leak their personnel files, they would become like rats crossing the street, with everyone calling for their eradication.

And beyond the personnel files…

Over the years, the Northern Fox Organization had committed plenty of crimes for profit, and in the process, established entwined relationships with intelligence agencies of some countries.

These dirty deals, once exposed, would inevitably implicate and harm many people.

Wu Jie could easily publish the information anonymously, framing the Northern Fox Organization in the process.

At that time…

The intelligence agencies of certain countries would go insane trying to hunt down and silence the Northern Fox Organization.

Especially the Star Federation.

For hegemony, for maintaining control over regional situations, they had often supported terrorist groups when it was in their interest to do so.

The Star Federation, however, would not act directly, and always operated through the Northern Fox Organization.

Creating conflicts, supporting rebels, slandering and spreading rumors, violent subversion…

All of these were shameful deeds not meant for the public eye.

If these were exposed, it would definitely cause an international scandal.

At that time, would certain countries let the Northern Fox Organization off easily?

Based on the personnel files, they might be pursued to every corner of the world to be eradicated without exception.

Edson wasn’t exactly dim-witted.

He certainly knew what it meant for Wu Jie to hold control over their classified data.

It was essentially a ‘nuclear weapon’ that could destroy the Northern Fox Organization.

For example.

If the whole world knew that he, Edson, was a criminal who did all manner of evil.

What he looked like, where he was born, his family address, his relationships with friends and relatives, his educational background…

The worst part was, the Northern Fox Organization had once collected and stored fingerprint, iris, DNA information, and other personal data of its members in the database to strengthen control, so that no one dared to defect.

Now, after a leak, these became fatal liabilities.

If all these were known to the public, how could Edson continue to operate?

Changing identity and altering facial features weren’t that difficult, he could even erase his fingerprints.

But what about DNA information?

Genetic data, which is absolutely unique.

No matter how one changes their appearance, as long as a blood test for genetic comparison is done, it’s a sure capture.

Many criminals with low IQs have been caught because of the evidence like hair or bodily fluids left at crime scenes.

And this proves how helpful genetic information is in solving cases.

So…

Could Edson only resort to living incognito, seeking refuge in uncharted wilderness, scraping by for the rest of his life?

The Northern Fox Organization isn’t just made up of one person, with thousands of members all over the world, it’s hard to ensure that in the face of escalating events, no one will try to earn a lesser punishment by snitching on each other and spilling secrets…

It’s a chilling thought indeed!

Considering this, could Edson not fear?

He finally understood why Wu Jie had the capital to be so brazen.

“If you feel that my rank is too low to negotiate with you, then fine, I will let you go tonight!”

“But at the latest, the day after tomorrow, our chairman will come to talk to you personally!”

“Since we are all in it for the money, there’s still a possibility of partnership, I hope Mr.

Wu will honor the appointment by then!”

Wu Jie chuckled and said, “So, you want to invite me to dinner, huh?”

Edson was taken aback for a moment, squeezing out a thin smile.

“You could put it that way, the location is up to you, we are absolutely sincere!”

“Then let’s make it at my restaurant, you’ve been there anyway!”

With that, Wu Jie pinched out his cigarette butt and got into the car.

Edson gritted his teeth and made a hand gesture.

The business van blocking the way quickly reversed and pulled aside to let them pass.

Watching the Audi sedan drive away, Edson’s expression grew even more somber.

What a humiliation!

The three of them had been ready for action.

Ready to give Wu Jie a good beating and capture him.

But what happened?

Chairman Lepuron actually forbade them from taking action.

It really was a case of being apprehensive about harming the mice for fear of breaking the precious vases.

Even if Wu Jie had some leverage over them, what of it?

Edson thought they should have simply taken the direct and brutal approach and captured Wu Jie.

Beat him for three days and nights until he was in agony, better off dead than alive, and he would surely confess everything.

“Boss, we should get out of here quickly!

Something doesn’t feel right, I think we’re being watched!”

Enyol whispered a warning.

Without delay, the three hurriedly got into the car and drove off, not wanting to be taken by certain departments for an interrogation session in a dark room.

The four of them had only come to scout ahead; finding Wu Jie and testing him out was already fulfilling their mission.

What they needed to do next was naturally to have Xu Dongbing arrange for someone to tail him around the clock, without losing sight.

As for the four of them…

Blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigners on a stakeout?

It would be difficult not to be noticed – far too conspicuous.

…

Inside the departing Audi.

While Wu Jie and Edson were talking, Chu Yunxuan in the car had heard some of it.

After all, even the best sedan couldn’t be completely soundproof.

“I really didn’t expect President Tang to be into betting on football!

But who exactly are these people?

They looked menacing!”

Chu Yunxuan, while driving, gently rolled her eyes and glanced at Wu Jie.

“You shouldn’t pry into things that don’t concern you, curiosity killed the cat!” Wu Jie coldly reminded.

“Ah?

Is it that serious…”

Seeing Wu Jie making a call, Chu Yunxuan immediately shut up.

The call went through quickly.

Zheng was not always on duty; the person who picked up the phone was Jin, the duty leader for the evening.

“Is the sweep still going on?

Okay, remember to tell Zheng when he comes in for his shift that the Northern Fox people are here.”

“No conflict; they wouldn’t dare touch me since I’m too important to them, okay, that’s it!”

After hanging up, Wu Jie looked out the car window, a smile playing on his lips.

Thanks to a software upgrade by Dashi Pai, which made his peers green with envy, his system energy points were constantly increasing.

Moreover, the upper echelons of the Northern Fox Organization were continuously filled with resentment over their heavy losses.

Fear?

Nonexistent!

No matter how formidable the force, Jie wasn’t afraid.

If Jie could stand up to a special envoy from the Star Federation like Perrio, would he be afraid of the Northern Fox Organization?

Wu Jie just thought.

Lately, these past few days had been quite wasted, not properly utilizing the system, not earning energy points.

Sleeping by day, helping in the kitchen at night, treating himself like a real chef.

He needed to adjust his mindset and earn more energy points.

But there’s not much potential left in the internet industry.

Everyone knows he’s amazing, his technology unbeatable, making them green with envy increasingly difficult.

“Damn, I forgot to refuel again!

Ah, where is there a gas station nearby…!”

Suddenly the Audi chime sounded, and warning lights flickered on the dashboard.

Chu Yunxuan, flustered, looked around desperately, wishing a gas station would appear alongside the road.

“Don’t panic, just over a kilometer ahead, don’t take the overpass, stay in the rightmost lane past the overpass, and you’ll find a gas station!” Wu Jie casually reminded.

Chu Yunxuan breathed a sigh of relief and immediately calmed down.

“That’s good, that’s good!

But recently, gasoline really keeps getting more expensive!

I think it’s only a matter of time before it hits ten yuan per liter!”

“Although I’m glad I didn’t buy an electric car, charging is even less convenient and takes too long.

If it were like refueling, done in a minute or two and the car could go for hundreds of kilometers, I’d definitely get an electric one!”

…

Chu Yunxuan murmured to herself.

Her words, however, jolted Wu Jie awake.

Which industry has a massive impact and terrifying profits?

Of course, it’s energy!

Why are the tycoons of the Zhongzhou Continent so wealthy?

Isn’t it because of oil mines?

With hundreds of millions of vehicles on the roads worldwide every day, even with an average daily fuel cost of ten yuan, that’s a business worth billions of yuan.

If he could create a high-performance battery that significantly improved the competitive edge of electric vehicles, then…

wouldn’t he incur hatred?

Car manufacturers, oil dealers, global workers, and tycoons—how many of them would be filled with venomous hatred toward him!

Before long.

The Audi smoothly entered the gas station, lining up to refuel.

Amidst the humming sounds, a series of luxurious sports cars and modified vehicles roared in.

The leader was none other than Fang Qingya’s BMW GT, parking on the opposite side.

When Fang Qingya turned her head and saw Wu Jie, she expressed surprise, followed by a mischievous smile as she asked:

“Xiao is away on business, and here you are in the middle of the night, Jie.

Where are you planning to take the lady?”
