Chapter 496: Chapter 496: Return to the Border Town_1

Han Xiangyu and Xiaolong looked puzzled upon hearing this. Cao Jianxin and Zhang Xian supposedly didn’t know each other before, and the only conflict they had was a minor disagreement during the exchange meeting. Why would there be murderous intent?

Killing over such a trivial matter, isn’t that way too arrogant and overbearing?

Zhang Xian saw that Han Xiangyu and Xiaolong didn’t quite believe him, so he explained, "I have a conflict with the Cao Family, and Cao Jianxin is one of them. So, you get it."

Han Xiangyu and Xiaolong looked at each other and sighed bitterly. Turns out, the conflict between Zhang Xian and Cao Jianxin wasn’t personal after all.

Remembering something, Han Xiangyu spoke again, "Now that I recall, during the exchange meeting, my grandfather wanted me to dig up some information on the Cao Family. Could it be that he’s planning to go after them?"

Zhang Xian chuckled, "At this point, he’s probably already taken action. He only has three days."

"Uh..." Han Xiangyu didn’t say anything else.

She was unaware of who was right or wrong in the conflict between Zhang Xian and Cao Jianxin, let alone what the issue between the former and the Cao Family was. However, her grandfather seemed to side with Zhang Xian.

It was something Han Xiangyu didn’t quite get, why was her grandfather so trusting of Zhang Xian? Just because the guy was powerful?

She believed that her grandfather was not that kind of person. There had to be more to this matter than met the eye.

"As for the relationship between me and your grandfather, don’t try to guess unless he wants to tell you about it." Zhang Xian seemed to see through Han Xiangyu’s trepidation and said with a laugh.

Han Xiangyu glared at Zhang Xian, pouting, "Can’t you tell me instead?"

Zhang Xian shrugged, "Personally, I think your grandfather knows more than I do. I only know the general relationship between us."

Han Xiangyu asked, "What kind of relationship?"

Zhang Xian chuckled, "Your grandfather and my master are best buddies."

"Oh, I see!" Han Xiangyu nodded. Then, feeling something was off, she grabbed Zhang Xian’s clothes angrily, "What are you talking about, Zhang Xian? What do you mean by ’best buddies’?"

Zhang Xian replied, "Why are you so worked up? As far as I know, that seems to be the case. Whether it’s true or not, you should ask your grandfather."

Han Xiangyu snapped, "I don’t believe you!"

Xiaolong also disagreed. The team leader was a very impressive man, how could he possibly be gay? Even if he were, he’d surely be the dominant type.

At that thought, he shuddered. The image he always had of his team leader seemed to crumble.

Zhang Xian replied, "Whether you believe it or not is your business, don’t tell me about it. If you want to know the truth, you can also ask your grandfather. But, as being gay is not yet widely accepted in society, he may feel embarrassed to admit it, especially someone as prideful as your grandfather. He may not tell you."

"You..." Han Xiangyu was fuming with anger, "Don’t say anymore."

Zhang Xian just laughed, not slandering Old Man Han and his lofty image any further. Of course, the words he had just said must have stirred up a storm in Han Xiangyu and Xiaolong’s minds.

Sorry old man, you can’t blame me for this! I was just speculating, don’t take it to heart.

...

The evening came after dinner.

After a brief rest, Zhang Xian stood up and exclaimed, "Let’s go!"

"Where?" Han Xiangyu and Xiaolong asked.

"You guys have constantly been fretting about your mission, right? Now’s the time to solve it! So you’d stop giving me those side glances," answered Zhang Xian.

"Just going over like this?" Han Xiangyu smiled wryly. "Shouldn’t we at least do some investigation first?"

Xiaolong added, "Yeah! If we just rush over without knowing anything, isn’t that just asking for trouble? They’re a terrorist group, although it’s just a small faction, we mustn’t underestimate them!"

"Tsk..." Zhang Xian retorted, "Are you guys overestimating them?"

Han Xiangyu and Xiaolong were left speechless.

Zhang Xian continued, "Let’s go! We don’t need any sort of investigation for any clues, I have my own ways. As long as they’re in the border town, there won’t be any problems."

Han Xiangyu and Xiaolong nodded, deciding to follow Zhang Xian. He was a powerful guy and he didn’t seem to rush headlong into things, so he must have some plan set in place.

"Elder Sister Cheng, Qingqing, you guys stay home," Zhang Xian turned back and said with a smile.

Zhu Qing gave a nod, "Alright, be careful."

With a confident smile thrown at Zhu Qing, Zhang Xian left the villa, dragging Da Meng along with him.

"Brother Xian..." Da Meng was confused.

Zhang Xian instructed, "Make some arrangements here, then come with me to the border town. Take me to find the Dwarf Brothers. They should know what’s going on over there, right?"

"Alright!" Da Meng nodded and promptly ran off to make the arrangements.

The villa was already being guarded by many during this critical period, so not much extra arrangement was necessary, just a few more hands would suffice.

"Huh? Why is Cao Jianxin standing over there?" Han Xiangyu pointed to a figure in the distance once they left the villa.

Xiaolong also noticed Cao Jianxin and immediately called out, "Brother Xin."

Cao Jianxin was here waiting for Zhang Xian and the others to come out. Upon hearing the shout, he glanced over at Zhang Xian with a gloomy expression, then turned and walked towards them.

"We’re about to go on our mission, are you coming with us?" Han Xiangyu asked with a smile.

Cao Jianxin replied, "I was here waiting for you guys to come out, of course I’m coming with you. I’m not like certain people who don’t know what’s good for them."

Zhang Xian gave a cold laugh, too lazy to deal with Cao Jianxin.

A little later, Da Meng ran out with a laughter, saying, "Brother Xian, everything is arranged. Those without the strength can’t break in."

"Hmm, let’s go!" Zhang Xian nodded and climbed into the jeep.

As Cao Jianxin saw Da Meng also trying to get into the car, he grabbed him and asked, "What are you doing? Who told you to get in the car?"

Da Meng looked dumbfounded, then turned to Zhang Xian.

"I told him to get in." Zhang Xian looked at Cao Jianxin and asked, "Do you have a problem with that?"

Cao Jianxin said with a cold face, "Don’t you realize our mission is secret? What do you mean by bringing an outsider? Are you trying to expose us?"

"A fool is always a fool." Zhang Xian, uninterested in debating with Cao Jianxin, said to Da Meng, "Get in the car, this guy is nothing but trash. If he tries to show off, I’ll take him down in a minute."

Da Meng shrugged off Cao Jianxin’s hand, climbed into the jeep, and sat next to Zhang Xian.

"You..." Cao Jianxin was almost fuming with anger.

Han Xiangyu said, "It’s fine, let’s go ahead! We are just going to kill people, not doing anything else that we should hide, there’s no need to be so uptight."

Xiaolong also nodded, climbed into the driver’s seat, and started the jeep.

Cao Jianxin’s mouth twitched unnaturally a few times, then he got into the passenger seat without saying a word.

In the past, when he planned things, he always felt like he was in control, and in his eyes, Zhang Xian was nothing but a henchman. But in reality, the difference was massive. He was the actual henchman.

"Let’s get going!" Xiaolong gave a laugh and stepped on the gas, and the jeep bolted out.

...

That night, in a small, inconspicuous courtyard in a border town, a dwarf was lying in bed, cuddling a beautiful woman and sleeping soundly.

"Ding-dong..." A sudden ring of the phone broke the silence.

The dwarf opened his bleary eyes, cursed under his breath, and picked up his phone, "Who the hell is it? Can’t a man get some sleep in the middle of the night?"

"Brother Dwarf, what’s going on?" the woman on the bed pouted, showing her displeasure.

The dwarf grumbled, "I’m taking a call!"

"Cough cough..." A cough came from the phone, "You damn dwarf, can’t you recognize my voice? Even if you’re cuddling with a woman right now, you’d better get your ass out here!"

The dwarf was taken aback, "Da Meng? What the hell are you calling me for? In the middle of the night too."

"I’m at your front door, hurry up and open it. I need to talk to you."

The dwarf replied, quickly grabbing his clothes and putting them on. When a brother calls, he had to act promptly.

"Brother Dwarf, where are you going?" the woman wrapped her arms around the dwarf with a flirtatious smile, "You woke me up and now want to leave, isn’t that a bit too much?"

The dwarf pushed the woman away impatiently, "Stop flirting! I’ve got something to deal with. My brother’s here. You just stay here and behave."

The woman was discontented, but there was nothing she could do.

The dwarf quickly dressed and rushed out the door.

When he saw Zhang Xian standing at the door, his eyes lit up instantly. He laughed, "Brother Zhang, what brings you here?"

Zhang Xian laughed, "Are you not welcoming me?"

"Cut it out, what are you talking about? I’ve been waiting for you to come!" the dwarf laughed, "Last time we part ways in quite a hurry, and we didn’t even get to have a good drink."

Zhang Xian laughed, "This time, I’m here again, and I need your help, sorry about that."

"Brother, what you said doesn’t sound very pleasant!" the dwarf stared at Zhang Xian disapprovingly, then patted his chest and said, "As long as you ask, if I can do it, I won’t be vague"

Zhang Xian said, "Let’s talk inside."

The dwarf nodded, then turned to Han Xiangyu and the others and said, "Come on in!"

Han Xiangyu, Xiaolong, and Cao Jianxin were slightly confused, not understanding why Zhang Xian wanted to come here. However, none of them voiced out anything, just followed obediently.

Zhang Xian was more assertive than they had imagined. Before figuring out the situation, they thought it would be best to be on their good behavior.

Walking into the cottage, the dwarf said, "It’s humble in here in comparison to the outside world, please make do."

Han Xiangyu and the others nodded and found some chairs to sit down.

Zhang Xian took out some cigarettes, offered one to each person, then asked, "Dwarf, has there been a small foreign group hanging around your border town recently?"

The dwarf asked, "Which one are you referring to? We have a lot of people coming and going here. Unless you’re more specific, it’d be hard for me to identify them out of the crowd."

"Just a small terrorist group that’s committed a lot of crimes in the mainland. That’s all I seem to know." Zhang Xian said.

"Those guys?," the dwarf laughed, "Yes, I know. They came here a few days ago and have been hiding in our border town without going anywhere else. What do you want with them?"

Zhang Xian said, "Wipe them out. Is there a problem?"

The dwarf hesitated for a moment, then said, "Had it been someone else, I would’ve laughed it off. But, when you say it, Brother, I believe you. It’s not a big deal, I can locate them."

Zhang Xian stood up, "Then, I’ll trouble Brother Dwarf with this. Let’s not waste any time; we should head there now."
