Chapter 167 Mysterious Organization
Huo Yan dragged his heavy feet back to the car. His mood felt as if he was being weighed down by a huge rock, so heavy that he could hardly breathe.
His face was filled with fatigue, and he slowly closed his eyes, but his mind seemed to be on loop, with Mr. Huo's words constantly exploding like thunder, and that unfamiliar name - Lin Kun, also flashed repeatedly in his thoughts like a ghost.
Assistant Yan's investigation was progressing extremely difficult, as if Lin Kun was a stone that fell into an endless abyss of bottomless darkness, disappearing without a trace, without leaving even the slightest obvious and valuable clue.
in the office.
Huo Yan paced back and forth anxiously. The "clacking" sound of his shiny leather shoes hitting the ground was particularly clear in this silent space.
The truth becomes more and more confusing. Originally, it was thought that Mr. Huo San was the culprit of the kidnapping case, but now it is discovered that there are other enemies.
His heart seemed to be a tangled mess, and the uneasy emotion grew stronger like a surging tide, like an invisible yet extremely powerful force, tightly gripping his heart.
At this moment, Qiao Qin's familiar and concerned voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Huo Yan, are you okay?" There was a barely perceptible tremor in Qiao Qin's voice, as if she was trying hard to suppress her inner fear and worry.
Huo Yan took a deep breath and tried to make his voice sound calm and steady: "I'm fine, don't worry."
"What happened? The hospital called and said they couldn't find you. Where did you go?" Qiao Qin's tone was full of confusion and worry. Her voice rose a few notches, and the slightly trembling ending clearly revealed her inner anxiety that was difficult to conceal.
Huo Yan was silent for a moment. He couldn't hide it from Qiao Qin, so he slowly said, "There may be other people involved in the kidnapping case that year. I'm investigating."
Qiao Qin took a breath on the other end of the phone, and after a brief silence, she said, "You must be careful and pay attention to your own safety."
......
A few days later, Assistant Yan finally brought some hard-earned clues.
It turned out that before Lin Kun disappeared, he once appeared in a remote town that was almost forgotten by the world.
A glimmer of hope instantly flashed in Huo Yan's eyes, and without hesitation he immediately led his men to the mysterious town at lightning speed.
The town is quiet and quaint. The winding stone roads are like the veins of time, the mottled earth walls tell stories of the past, and the rising smoke seems to be the breath of the earth, together forming a beautiful picture of a peaceful time.
However, the arrival of Huo Yan and his team was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly breaking the tranquility and peace here. After some inquiries, they finally found the place where Lin Kun once lived.
It was a shabby little house, with rickety doors and windows swaying gently in the breeze, making a miserable "creaking" sound, as if telling the vicissitudes and helplessness of the years. The house was covered with thick dust, and every grain of dust seemed like a forgotten time, as if no one had lived there for a long, long time.
Huo Yan stepped into the house cautiously, his eyes sharp, searching every corner carefully like a falcon, not missing any possible clues.
Finally, in a dark, damp corner that smelled of decay, he found a yellowed diary.
Huo Yan gently picked up the diary, his fingers lightly brushing across the yellowed paper, the touch seemed to carry the weight of years and secrets.
He slowly opened the diary and was shocked by its contents.
It turned out that Lin Kun had always felt deeply guilty and regretful about what happened that year. He recorded in detail in his diary the planning process of the entire kidnapping case and the intricate and horrifying conspiracy behind it.
Every line of words seemed like a heavy hammer, hitting Huo Yan's soul hard and causing huge waves in his heart.
Huo Yan's hands were trembling slightly, as if controlled by an invisible force.
He discovered that the diary mentioned a mysterious organization which seemed to be manipulating many dark transactions behind the scenes, and the kidnapping case that year was probably just the tip of the iceberg of their many conspiracies.
However, just when he wanted to take a closer look, he was suddenly attacked by a group of mysterious people. The other party was obviously well prepared. They all covered their faces and held gleaming weapons in their hands. They pounced on Huo Yan and others like a group of hungry wolves.
"Protect the diary!" Huo Yan shouted loudly, his voice full of majesty and courage. He picked up the iron frame on the ground and fought hard with Assistant Yan and others.
During the fierce fight, Huo Yan discovered that the moves of the mysterious man in front of him seemed familiar. The familiar movements and attack methods were exactly the same as the man in black who killed Huo Xiaofei and then framed Qiao Qin.
It turns out that he and Mr. Huo San are not in the same group?
Just as the situation became increasingly tense and Huo Yan and his team were gradually losing ground, a sharp siren sounded in the distance. The police arrived in time, and the mysterious people saw that the situation was not good, and fled in panic like frightened birds and beasts.
Huo Yan looked at the direction they left, his eyes as firm as iron, as if he could penetrate the endless darkness: "No matter who you are, no matter how powerful the forces behind you are, I will definitely find you out one by one and let the truth come to light!"
Followed by.
Huo Yan returned to the company in a hurry. As soon as he stepped through the door, he immediately gathered his elite team.
His face was solemn, as if he was carrying a heavy burden. Everyone sat together, their eyes focused on the mysterious diary obtained from Lin Kun's cabin, and were about to conduct an in-depth analysis of it.
"Some details mentioned in this diary need further verification." Huo Yan frowned, his expression extremely serious, and his fingers tapped the table rhythmically. The low sound seemed to come from a deep valley.
Upon hearing this, the team members immediately became busy as if they were stretched to a taut bowstring.
They had a clear division of labor and carried out their work in an orderly manner. Some people were fully focused on finding relevant personnel information and not missing any clues; others were concentrating on trying to track the flow of funds mentioned in the diary, as every clue could be the key to solving the mystery.
At this moment, Huo Yan's cell phone suddenly rang. The abrupt ringtone sounded particularly harsh in the tense atmosphere.
It's an unknown number.
"Huo Yan, that's enough. If you continue investigating, your life may be in danger." A voice processed by a voice changer came from the other end of the phone. The voice seemed to come from the depths of hell, eerie and terrifying, full of threats, like the roar of a demon from the dark abyss.
Huo Yan snorted coldly, and raised a disdainful sneer at the corner of his mouth: "You are such a coward, I will find you out sooner or later."
"Okay, wait and see." The other party said viciously, then hung up the phone mercilessly.
Huo Yan held the phone tightly, his knuckles turned slightly white due to the force, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, as if he had made some firm decision.
Just then, the familiar cell phone ringtone rang again.
He looked down, and when his eyes touched the familiar phone number, the anger that had just gathered between his brows instantly dissipated without a trace. He quickly pressed the answer button and whispered, "What's wrong?"
next second.
"Huo Yan, where are you? Xiao Ran is about to give birth." On the other end of the phone, Qiao Qin's voice was full of anxiety and uneasiness. The voice was trembling, as if her heart was about to jump out of her throat.
Huo Yan's expression changed slightly in an instant, as if he was attacked by frost. He stood up suddenly, his face full of shock and disbelief.
According to the normal due date, Lin Xingran should have gone into labor on the first of next month. How come it suddenly came half a month earlier?
Huo Yan frowned, his heart was in turmoil. He took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, I'll be at the hospital soon."
After saying that, he rushed out like an arrow.
