49: Chapter 48 What Are You Hiding in Your Pocket?

On the way to the highway, an SUV sped furiously, overtaking continuously, with insistent honks sounding off from time to time.

In the car, a muscular man held the steering wheel in one hand while pinching a cigarette with the other, resting it on the window, his eyebrows furrowed.

“How did it turn into this…”

Zhao Shan took a fierce drag of his cigarette, muttering through gritted teeth.

Everything was normal at first, accept money, do the job, and whatever happened to the other party in the end wasn’t his concern.

But things went far beyond his expectations, the first time he took action against someone named Chu Yi, he had easily neutralised it.

He had planned to investigate Chu Yi’s background thoroughly so he could earn the rest of the money, but he found it impossible to trace his origins, as if he had jumped out of nowhere.

Just when Zhao Shan began to feel puzzled, the Zheng Family ran into trouble.

Someone broke into their house, brazenly took away things that shouldn’t see the light, and killed at least dozens of people…

“That kid is definitely not ordinary!

Zheng Jiahao, you damn dog, you set me up!”

Realizing he had offended such a person, Zhao Shan immediately felt he couldn’t stay here any longer, especially since he discovered he was being investigated, he became even more restless.

Without much hesitation, he made a snap decision; escape from here first!

“Damn it, let them be arrogant for now, once I figure out how to use this thing, none of them will get away!”

Muttering to himself, Zhao Shan tossed away the cigarette butt and reached into his pocket to grasp a palm-sized wooden box.

At that moment, the traffic light ahead turned red.

Zhao Shan slowly stopped amid the flow of cars; after this traffic light, five more minutes and he could get on the highway!

Then, it would be a wide sea and sky for him to roam freely as he pleased!

Although it was a pity to leave everything in Binhai behind, as long as he had that thing in his pocket, one day, he would take it all back with interest!

Zhao Shan was full of confidence about this!

But just then, someone tapped on the passenger-side window.

He glanced over to see a young man bending down and waving at him from outside the car.

In a flash, Zhao Shan’s heart skipped a beat, as if struck by lightning, and he froze.

“How is this possible!

How is he here?!”

Waves of panic surged in Zhao Shan’s heart, and his face involuntarily twitched.

Immediately after, the name Han Corporation flashed in his mind.

It must be them surveilling him!

As he came to this realization, Chu Yi knocked on the window again, gesturing for him to roll it down.

Zhao Shan desperately wanted to just hit the gas and drive away, but with a dozen or so cars around, there was no way he could do it!

After hesitating for a few seconds, he finally pressed the button to lower the window.

“You’re quite well-informed, aren’t you?

Many branches and collateral relatives of the Zheng Family don’t even know what happened yet, but you got the news and thought of running away.”

As he spoke, Chu Yi stretched out his hand, opened the car door, and sat down in the passenger seat, with a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.

Zhao Shan was silent for a moment, somewhat at a loss for words.

Given the scant information he knew, Chu Yi was someone he couldn’t afford to provoke, but things had already happened, and he knew that the things he had done weren’t going to be resolved with just an apology.

At this point, he had absolutely no say…

With this thought, Zhao Shan took a deep breath, trying to suppress the unease in his heart, and asked, “What do you want to do?”

Chu Yi raised a hand to point at the traffic light, “Drive first, it’s green now.”

Zhao Shan looked up and saw that the cars in front had already started moving slowly.

Should he accelerate the car to its limits and then bail out and run away?

This thought flashed through his mind but was immediately dismissed by Zhao Shan.

He couldn’t say for sure whether he would get out unscathed, but the person next to him definitely would be fine…

Take it one step at a time.

Swallowing hard, Zhao Shan started the car.

Moments later, the surrounding traffic began to thin, and soon he would reach the highway.

At this moment, Chu Yi pointed to a spot not too far ahead, “Stop the car there.”

Zhao Shan’s heart skipped a beat.

Was he going to make a move?

He couldn’t help but grip the wooden box in his pocket tightly before slowly driving over and stopping.

Chu Yi pulled out the car key, “Get out.”

Zhao Shan tensed his nerves and complied.

By the car was a small patch of landscaped trees.

As soon as he got out, he saw Chu Yi walking into it.

Grinding his teeth, he followed in as well.

“You planning to kill me here?”

When Chu Yi stood still, Zhao Shan feigned calm and spoke.

“That’s not impossible.”

Chu Yi seemed quite interested, which immediately made Zhao Shan’s heart leap.

“Are you serious?”

“Depends on your performance.”

Chu Yi turned around with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, “I heard you’re quite capable in Binhai, know a lot of things, right?”

“Mhm.”

“Then this will be easy.

You must know quite a bit about the Zheng Family’s scandals.

Give me all the related evidence and the list of people with vested interests.

If the information weighs enough, I might let you go.”

Chu Yi stated his demands indifferently.

He believed that since Zhao Shan dared to engage in this business, he must have substantial leverage in his hands to have lived safely until today.

Secrets, after all, are deadliest when half-understood.

Either you know nothing, or you know enough to make people afraid to let anything happen to you.

With the materials provided by him, plus the hard drive taken from the Zheng Family, the difficulty of uprooting them would be greatly reduced.

“Are you serious?”

Zhao Shan was both shocked and overjoyed.

The shock was that this guy might actually spare him, and the joy was naturally finding hope where there seemed to be none.

It was just some data on the Zheng Family; compared to one’s life, the importance was self-evident.

“Yes, but be quick.”

“No problem!

I can give it to you right now!”

Zhao Shan’s face lit up with joy, and he hurriedly made a phone call.

As for whether Chu Yi would go back on his word…

At this point, he could only hope that Chu Yi would keep his promise.

“Hello, go turn on my computer and send me the document C-1-15.”

Those words spoken, after a few minutes, Zhao Shan’s phone vibrated.

“How should I send it to you?”

Chu Yi, considering his own phone that had a pixel resolution suitable only for capturing aliens, snatched Zhao Shan’s phone instead.

“Just send it like this.”

Zhao Shan was completely flustered.

“Can, can you just send the file?

There are a lot of things in there that are very…”

“Hmm?”

Chu Yi hummed, and Zhao Shan immediately swallowed the rest of his words.

“It’s nothing.

I’ll retrieve the data later.”

“Mhm.”

Chu Yi nodded in satisfaction and immediately asked for the password, then began to review the data.

Minutes passed, and his expression grew increasingly grim.

Under the broad daylight and the expanse of the sky, the Zheng Family dared to do such things…

It was infuriating; they deserved to die!

Chu Yi made a call to Yue Yao right away, “I’ll send you a file.

If you can’t handle this Zheng Family, I will.”

Yue Yao on the other end of the phone was startled; it was the first time she had heard such overt anger from Chu Yi.

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Shan asked carefully, “So…

can I go now?”

“Mhm.” Chu Yi nodded, “By the way, what have you hidden in your pocket?”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Shan froze on the spot.
