<strong>Capítulo 1526: Chapter 1527: Zhong Min Begins Searching for Clues</strong>


    Commander Cao snorted coldly, his eyes glinting with cold light; at this moment, he thought of Zhong Min.


    The task he assigned to Zhong Min still had no updates, which was impossible in the past.


    Even though Zhong Min no longer had any subordinates, a simple investigation task shouldn’t take this long.


    He picked up the phone and hesitated for a moment, but eventually dialed out.


    Zhong Min was still sleeping in the hotel; after a few rings, she finally picked it up.


    She was puzzled, thinking who could be calling at this time, could it be Cheng Wn?


    She squinted at the phone and, upon seeing it, immediately sat up in bed.


    The task her godfather gave her still had no leads, and now he’s calling, surely to ask about it.


    She thought for a moment before answering the call.


    “Godfather.”


    “Are you sleeping?” Commander Cao detected the leisure in Zhong Min’s voice. It was hard to imagine that it was past twelve and Zhong Min was still sleeping, which never happened before.


    “I was upte investigating yesterday,” Zhong Min lied.


    She rarely lied, so she felt a bit uneasy, and she had never lied to her godfather before.


    Commander Cao, being a cunning old fox, could naturally tell she was lying but didn’t expose her.


    “How is the investigation going?” Commander Cao asked.


    “His information is well-hidden; I haven’t figured it out yet,” Zhong Min replied.


    Commander Cao asked a few questions; Zhong Min’s responses were hesitant and evasive.


    Finally, Commander Cao sighed and said, “Xiao Min, has the loss of your base affected you greatly? Don’t worry; I’ll help you rebuild it soon.”


    Commander Cao’s sincerity moved Zhong Min a little.


    “Godfather, don’t worry, I will do my best to find out his information,” Zhong Min assured.


    “Hmm, looking forward to your good news,” Commander Cao said and then hung up.


    After hanging up, he thought for a moment and then made another call.


    “Investigate the recent situation of Zhong Min,” Commander Cao said emotionlessly.


    “Zhong Min?” The person hesitated, clearly aware of Zhong Min’s rtionship with Commander Cao.


    “That’s right, investigate quickly,” Commander Cao said and hung up directly.


    Since Zhong Min’s base was attacked, he felt Zhong Min had be a different person.


    Moreover, he increasingly doubted who had saved her.


    No forces nearby dared to rescue someone from the military district. Could it be that Zhong Min had betrayed too?


    After hanging up, Zhong Min felt deep self-me. Now she had to do everything possible to investigate Rumus’s situation.


    She got up, washed up casually, and then called Cheng Wn.


    When Cheng Wn received the call from Zhong Min, she was delighted.


    “Xiao Min, it’s so good to hear your voice,” Cheng Wn said joyfully, but her eyes reddened, “I thought I’d never see you again.”


    Zhong Min was d to have such a good sister and then said, “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”


    “Where are you?” Cheng Wn asked.


    Now nning to investigate Rumus’s situation, Zhong Min didn’t n to disclose her location, so she said, “I have some things to do now, I’ll find you once I’m done, don’t worry about me.”


    Cheng Wn knew Zhong Min was being evasive but didn’t press further.


    After a pleasant chat, they hung up.


    Confirming Zhong Min was safe, Cheng Wn felt much happier. She quickly went to Xiang Yu to share the news.


    “She didn’t say where she is?” Xiang Yu asked puzzledly.


    Cheng Wn shook her head, “No, just told me not to worry.”


    Xiang Yu nodded without asking more; he felt Zhong Min was hiding something from Cheng Wn.


    After Cheng Wn left, he called for Tie Zhuzi and Xiaoxuan, and the three of them drove off.


    They had pretty much determined the city Zhong Min was in; they just didn’t know the specific location.


    Zhong Min was quite a beauty, so finding her wasn’t difficult; upon leaving the hotel, she wandered aimlessly on the streets. Her clear, beautiful face and captivating big eyes drew many looks.


    Almost all men couldn’t help but steal a few nces, leading to quarrels between couples happening all around.


    Zhong Min paid no attention to the gazes; she was used to it. Normally, she rarely roamed the cities for this reason.


    Now she needed to find an underworld rat selling information, who often lived in secluded alleys.


    With ample time today, she wandered aimlessly toward secluded corners.


    She came to a somewhat run-down street and randomly approached a shop to ask, “I want to meet the boss of this street.”


    The person nced at Zhong Min and then shook his head quickly, “I don’t know, better ask someone else.”


    From his eyes, Zhong Min could see fear, implying there were indeed people from the underworld managing this street.


    “What do you want with our boss?” A shifty-eyed man leaning against a rear wall said.


    Zhong Min turned to see this man had sharp eyes, sizing her up and down.


    The man wasn’t tall, tattooed, and looked like a thug; she knew she had found the right person.


    “I want to see your boss,” Zhong Min said, unafraid.


    Having wandered through society for so long, she wasn’t afraid of this type.


    “Who are you, and why do you want to see our boss?” The Ground Rat suspected Zhong Min was too calm and extraordinary, first considering her a local enforcer, a cop.


    “Looking to make a deal,” Zhong Min stated calmly.


    “What deal?” The Ground Rat asked.


    Zhong Min was impatient with him; such people were not decision-makers and only wasted time.


    “Cut the crap, take me to him,” Zhong Min demanded.


    “Hmph, seeing my boss isn’t that simple, what if you’re a cop?” The Ground Rat leaned there, cigarette dangling.


    Zhong Min was tired of his nonsense; a dagger suddenly appeared in her hand, and with a sh, she was in front of the Ground Rat.


    The dagger was icy against his neck.


    The Ground Rat almost wet himself, his mouth half-open and slow to react. This was unexpected, assuming he’d found a beauty to lure away and handle, but she turned out to be a tigress.


    “Don’t move, don’t move,” The Ground Rat stammered, raising his hands.


    “Lead the way,” Zhong Min ordered coldly.


    Many shopkeepers nearby, witnessing this, quickly locked their doors, fearing trouble.


    The Ground Rat nodded quickly, “Put the dagger away first; I’ll take you there.”


    Zhong Min wasn’t worried about any tricks and put the dagger away.


    The Ground Rat breathed a sigh of relief, “I’ll take you right now; don’t regret meeting our boss.”


    The Ground Rat now sure Zhong Min wasn’t a cop, being so beautiful and captured, leaving her to the boss…
