Chapter 359: The video

By her side, Muyang had curiously and patiently waited as she detached the painting without inquiring into her actions. She always had a reason for everything that she did. That was a fact he understood quite well by now.

Her sudden interest in the Hua auction had intrigued him and her determination to acquire the lotus blessing peaked that intrigue. Watching her retrieve a small black memory card from the inside of the frame answered all the questions he had in his mind.

He was not sticking around simply because of this one curiosity, he also wanted to clear up any lingering doubts that she could possibly have about his alleged former nonexistent betrothal. She would not be satisfied until he gave her his side of the story.

He watched in silence as she retrieved the contents of the memory card from it and when she hit that play button on the laptop, he dragged his chair over and joined her to view the footage.

It started out innocent, in a brightly lit room that looked like an empty warehouse of sorts, a group of five well-dressed men in white suits were drinking wine around a richly stocked table with a variety of foods and toasting to each other with smiles on their faces.

The men were merry and giggly, as if they were celebrating good news. To Muyang, it appeared as if the men were partially intoxicated and well on their way to being fully intoxicated because they were loud and their faces appeared to be flushed. One of them was slurring over his words.

He closely scrutinized the video and realized that he could easily recognize three of these men except for two. One of these two was wearing a mask, he was the one sitting in the center position and the body language of others was evidently identifying him to be their leader.

The other was not familiar to him but he was sure he would find out soon enough. One of the men at the celebratory table was none other than Chu Yangmin, the other was his bastard son Fengzhou and with them a fellow accomplice Doctor Li.

These three people had appeared in the picture related to the Aoi organization. Muyang had been searching for evidence which linked these three people together but all he had so far were threads that did not connect at the other end. Currently, he was tracking the available financial records of the Chu family, Doctor Li and the public account of the Aoi organization however these were all meticulously clean.

But as always, his Chi-Chi loved to surprise him with new leads.

"Where did you get this video?" he turned his head, looed and her and waited for her answer.

"I have a source. "She replied without batting an eye.

"You should introduce me to that source sometime." he replied.

"Maybe someday if that source is ready to reveal themselves. In the meantime, I have to keep their identity for safety reasons."

The men in the video had been eating for about an hour and she would have forwarded the video but she did not want to miss a single second of this video. There had to be a reason as to why they wanted Zhangye dead for recording it other than maintaining their identities and connection a secret.

"It’s time." A voice in the video said and the men placed their chop sticks and wine glasses down. Servants dressed in white gowns came and removed the used plates and cutlery from the table.

All of the men looked to the front and the camera which was recording suddenly shook for a bit. Total darkness covered the screen but audio could still be heard.

"What are you doing?" a voice was asked asking someone.

"Nothing, I was just trying to scratch an itch on my chest. Do you know how hard it is to stand still on an empty stomach while your VIP enjoys a luxury meal inside?" a different voice answered.

"You are drooling over the food." The first voice said with a deep laughter, "Be careful not to get caught and next times make sure to eat something before you receive an assignment."

"Yes sir." The second voice answered.

Footsteps were heard which indicated someone moving away and then a few seconds later, the camera which was recording returned to position. On the screen, five people dressed in white and barefoot were lined up at the front, a distance away from the table.

There was a man in front speaking and motioning to the people. "We are here as usual to celebrate our yearly victory and to renew our faith in each other and these five people have been deemed to be worthy sacrifices at the altar of our wealth. They have signed their letters of farewell to the world and you can pick freely without a worry as usual."

"What is he talking about?" Chi Lian asked Muyang.

"I don’t know but I don’t like the sound of it." Muyang answered. "Maybe you should not watch the rest of the video."

Chi Lian shook her head and glued her eyes to the screen.

One by one, the men made their selections and then weapons were driven over on a cart by another man also dressed in white. Knives, swords, bats, nails guns and other weapons of all sorts. There was even a large bat with razor wire wrapped around it.

If somebody was beaten with that thing...!!!!!

"You don’t think that they are going to do what I think they are going to do, right?" Chi Lian asked Muyang even though deep down in her heart she already had the answers she was trying so hard to deny.

"I don’t think you should watch." Muyang insisted.

He went on to pull her forcefully onto his body so that her head was turned away from the video. Despite this, she heard every gruesome wail that came from the video. And when it was finished, she turned around to look only to be met with a scene right out of a horror movie. Body parts everywhere, blood flowing as if it had rained from the sky and a group of happy unbothered men. She run away and hurled into the sink in the basement bathroom.

She had seen death before but without even seeing this one with her eyes, she could imagine how crude and bloody it was.

When she returned, it was to find the sound of clapping coming from the laptop. The few servants around were applauding the act of gruesome murder which had just taken place. The men who committed the vicious murders were waving like champions after a victory and smiling. One of them, Chu Fengzhou even had a very obvious erection. The act of murdering someone excited him sexually.

What kind of sickos were these? She asked herself.

"What are you doing?" the similar voice which had stopped the person who was recording from continuing before returned. There was a scuffle; the camera fell to the floor, showing a pair of military boots. Then it was picked up and switched off.

Muyang and Chi Lian remained sitting in one place, too shocked by what they had witnessed. The Aoi organization was deep and it had many secrets but this was beyond understanding. Was it a cult of some kind or did they just enjoy murdering people?

As they digested what they had just seen and heard, so many questions swirled around in her mind. One in particular kept bothering her and she blurted it out.

"Why did they clap,?" Chi Lian asked Muyang suddenly.

"Because they are sick people, very sick." He replied.
