The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife
Chapter 265 - 265 265 Zhao Rou's Madness

265: Chapter 265: Zhao Rou’s Madness 265: Chapter 265: Zhao Rou’s Madness Silence—The room fell into utter silence.

“Mr.

Ye, are you alright?” Tianjing clearly saw two dark shadows fall from the ceiling and hurried over to help Ye Shikai up.

“Cough, cough, I’m fine.” Ye Shikai coughed violently, his voice weak, his Inner Strength almost completely drained now.

“Bang.” Suddenly, in the darkness, the two heard the sound of a door slamming shut.

Ye Shikai quickly stood up, and Tianjing took out a portable light from his pocket.

As soon as the light came on, a corpse lay beside the two.

It was the Mothman from earlier, his head completely deflated, motionless, dead beyond a doubt.

Ye Shikai and Tianjing breathed a long sigh of relief, finally having killed this monster.

Frankly, both were close to passing out; if the Mothman weren’t dead, they would have been in big trouble.

“I’ll chase Zhao Rou.

You quickly head to the safety passage and join Dr.

Li Hua and the others.” Ye Shikai carefully noted that Zhao Rou’s trail was gone from the room; she had clearly slipped away in the darkness.

This time, Ye Shikai was determined to catch her.

“Alright, be careful.

The National Security Bureau has secured the area.

Once you find her, quickly regroup at the entrance.” Tianjing nodded, and they went their separate ways.

Ye Shikai came to a hallway and saw Zhao Rou squatting on the ground, coldly watching him.

Zhao Rou was at the end of her rope.

The moment she saw Ye Shikai, she knew the Mothman was dead.

Ye Shikai slowly approached her.

Zhao Rou did not show a scared expression; instead, she simply sat calmly, watching him intently.

“Zhao Rou, surrender,” said Ye Shikai quietly, extending his right hand, intending to help Zhao Rou up.

He didn’t plan to use violence; Zhao Rou should be handed over to the law.

“The plan I meticulously devised has still failed,” Zhao Rou slowly raised her head, suddenly smiling, but it was a bitter smile.

“Your plan, which cost so many lives, was doomed to fail, as evil cannot triumph over good,” Ye Shikai withdrew his hand and said firmly.

“Evil cannot triumph over good, ha ha, Mr.

Ye, can your so-called actions truly represent justice?

Without you, no one could have uncovered me,” Zhao Rou laughed loudly, and Ye Shikai felt a chill down his spine as he looked at the woman before him.

“It’s a pity, just falling short, I have failed my master,” sighed Zhao Rou.

“Master, who is your master?” Ye Shikai suddenly perked up.

Could it be that Zhao Rou was not the real mastermind behind the scenes?

Was there someone else behind her?

“Humph, one day you will find out,” said Zhao Rou.

“The HST plan was so perfect, allowing humans to have more perfect bodies, longer lifespans, and us, to gain great benefits.

Isn’t that a win-win?”

“I don’t think the Mothman looks good at all,” Ye Shikai said sarcastically, instead of ugly, rather disgusting and hideous.

“The thinking of mortals never goes beyond the surface, and thus they can never achieve a breakthrough,” said Zhao Rou coldly.

“You talk about your plan as if it’s honorable, but how can killing so many people ever be right?” Ye Shikai scolded.

The woman in front of him was clearly a madwoman, completely twisted in her psyche.

“These are necessary sacrifices.

Without these sacrifices, how can there be progress?” Zhao Rou laughed maniacally.

Ye Shikai did not want to deal with this woman anymore, he moved forward to capture her, listening to her was making his worldview crumble.

“Do you think you can catch me so easily?

Since you’ve ruined me, I’m going to take you down with me.” Zhao Rou shouted, pulling out a remote control from her pocket and pressing a button.

Immediately, alarm bells sounded throughout the building.

“The self-destruct system has been activated, the building is about to explode, Ye Shikai, I’ll be waiting for you below.” After speaking, Zhao Rou pulled out a small capsule from her pocket.

Ye Shikai moved quickly to her side, knocked her out with a hand chop, and grabbed the capsule, smelling a faint trace of cyanide.

Indeed, she planned to commit suicide by poison.

The alarm bells rang louder, not giving Ye Shikai any time to hesitate.

He hoisted Zhao Rou onto his shoulder and ran, jumping out of the window.

“Bang.” Ye Shikai shattered the glass, using his Inner Strength to land softly on the ground.

“Boom.” Just as Ye Shikai touched the ground, a violent explosion erupted behind him.

Flames burst from the windows, and the powerful blast from the explosion flipped Ye Shikai over.

“Mr.

Ye, are you alright?” Ye Shikai regained his senses and slowly got up.

Suddenly, Tianjing ran up behind him and patted his shoulder.

“Cough, cough, I’m alright, luckily I didn’t die.” Ye Shikai pointed to the still unconscious Zhao Rou beside him and said lightly, “I got her out, she’s in your hands now.”

“Alright.” Tianjing said, then carried Zhao Rou and followed Ye Shikai outside the factory.

“Mr.

Ye, I really can’t thank you enough.” Dr.

Li Hua grabbed Ye Shikai’s hand excitedly, seeing the entire research team saved and hugging each other in relief over having survived a great disaster, Ye Shikai finally smiled, feeling the trip was worth it.

“Mr.

Ye, are you guys okay?” Just then, Jin Li walked over.

The National Security Bureau and the police had basically mobilized, and the entire factory was sealed off, while Jing Xie and the others gathered plenty of evidence.

“That’s great, the Mothman case has finally become clear.” Jin Li exclaimed.

These past few days, the police and National Security Bureau had been dealing with this case day and night, and now, the truth had finally emerged.

“Ha ha, scum, you’re pretty capable.” At this moment, Zhang Ting playfully punched Ye Shikai’s chest.

With the case solved, Zhang Ting was in high spirits, but the nickname had reverted to “scum” again.

Ye Shikai wasn’t going to fuss over that; the case was solved, everyone was happy.

Tianjing gave Ye Shikai a thumbs up, from the murder case of Cheng Mei and Sun Yu to the now resolved truth, it had taken just one week.

This man-made mystery was finally solved.

“Ye, well done.” Song Tian and Lin Dong also showed relieved smiles, tightly grasping Ye Shikai’s hand.

“Now that the case is closed, let’s wrap it up.

I’m treating everyone, let’s go celebrate properly.” Tianjing said enthusiastically to Jing Xie and the others behind him, then patted Ye Shikai on the shoulder.

“Mr.

Ye, come join us.”

“Sure.” Ye Shikai nodded lightly.

As everyone cheered and celebrated, Ye Shikai slowly turned around, looking into the dark night sky.

The Mothman case, is it really over?
