Chapter 734: Chapter 734: Are You Proposing to Me (1)

"So you’re saying..." Paul frowned as he picked up the thread, "he took on the job privately?"

Over the years, Moses had been dedicated to transforming Red Flame, investing more money and effort into legitimate business, and the duty of assassination had long ceased to be its main line of work. To a great extent, he no longer deigned to earn money in such a manner.

Red Flame was originally a large operation, and many of its elite personnel came from retired Special Forces or mercenaries who were not adept at the new corporate work.

The assassin who came to kill Huangfu Jue was one of them.

Since Red Flame had already issued an order to all assassins not to take on such work, he had not complied with the directive and had taken on the job privately.

"Who is it?" Moses asked.

Jessica shook her head, "I have checked all his accounts, and there has been no sign of large transfers recently. His records indicate that he’s always been a big spender; he wouldn’t have accepted unless the other party offered sufficient compensation. So, I believe they must have dealt in cash."

Cash transactions left no trail of funds, so naturally, there would be no records of transfers to trace. Now that the assassin was dead, there would be no way to extract any clues from him. Finding the person behind the hired killing thus seemed a difficult task.

"Go see where he has been recently, who he has been in contact with, phone call records... I want to know, where he’s been and whom he has met over the past month, and among these people, who might possibly be connected to Huangfu Jue!" Moses narrowed his dark eyes slightly, "In any case... find that person!"

"Of course," Jessica said as she closed the folder in her hands, "What about the company’s business?"

Moses had handed over full control of the company’s business to Gan Yuan, and now that they had come to such a crossroads, it was unlikely that Gan Yuan would return to the company. Someone still needed to take responsibility for such a large industry.

Moses thought for a moment, "You go there first thing tomorrow, for the time being, hand it over to the former manager."

"And..." Paul hesitated, "what about the election team?"

The election team was a group of professionals recruited by Moses for Gan Yuan, to assist her with handling election matters, constructing her public image, providing advice, and such tasks.

"Let them continue working, the election campaign will go on, she won’t back out."

After saying that, Moses leaned back wearily against the sofa.

Jessica and Paul exchanged glances, both filled with doubts, but neither asked any further questions.

"Sir," Paul said softly, "it’s getting late, you should go upstairs and rest. We’ll take care of the rest."

"Yes, sir," Jessica also spoke with concern, "Your health is important."

Moses stood up from the sofa but did not go upstairs; instead, he approached Jessica.

"She knows, doesn’t she?"

The ’she’ Moses was referring to was, of course, Gan Yuan, and Jessica pressed her lips together.

"I heard that she... she saw the tattoo on the assassin’s body."

Gan Yuan knew Red Flame very well. Just by seeing that tattoo, she could tell if it was fake or not; she must have already identified the assassin’s involvement, and that’s why she mistakenly thought he was behind the attack on Huangfu Jue.

"Sir," Jessica bit her lip, "You know Gaia’s character better than I do. If she learns the truth, she will surely trust you. Or should I go talk to her?"
