Chapter 967 This guy surnamed Ji is terrifying!
Suddenly, a cold laugh came from the other end of the phone: "So you're the big boss behind this, huh? Too bad all the assassins you hired failed; we took them all down. Just wait for us to come knocking on your door and ruin your family!"
The man was immediately startled, realizing that something terrible had happened. Not only had the so-called top-five assassin failed, but Hu Jinlong had also been captured.
He hung up the phone without hesitation, his heart pounding wildly.
This man has been in control of everything since he was a teenager. There is almost nothing in the world that he cannot accomplish, and countless people grovel at his feet.
But now, he felt a chilling fear.
It was fear of Ji Xiuhan.
"I absolutely cannot let Ji Xiuhan trace my origins back to me through Hu Jinlong. Luckily, I was prepared!"
The man quickly calmed down.
He wasn't worried at all about his chat and call logs with Hu Jinlong.
Because he was using a virtual phone number, all the information was fake, and there was absolutely no trace of him.
As for bank statements!
The man thought for a moment, then let out a cold laugh: "You, surnamed Ji, you want to find out my background? You're dreaming!"
Don't even mention my phone number being fake; even my bank account number and the account holder's name are fictitious—they don't exist at all! Go ahead and check if you dare!
"However, it would be best to make all the people associated with this account disappear!"
The man dialed two numbers directly.
Given his status and position, if his hiring of a hitman were exposed, his reputation would be completely ruined.
Therefore, the transfer accounts he used were a batch of accounts that were specifically opened many years ago.
Although it appears to be a real-name system, all the names are fake, and even the information used for facial recognition is forged.
Given his status and position, doing these things would be effortless for him.
These accounts were not opened by him personally, but by others. For safety reasons, those who opened the accounts for him must disappear from this world. No hidden dangers should be left behind so that Ji Xiuhan can find out about him.
Now that things have come to this, how could he not know that Ji Xiuhan's terrifying nature has far exceeded his imagination?
He's now kicking himself for getting involved in this mess, needlessly provoking such a powerful enemy.
"W-who are you?"
After being subdued, Hu Jinlong turned pale and stared in terror at the person in front of him.
However, he was asking a question he already knew the answer to. He had seen these people's faces before; they were all bodyguards brought by Ji Xiuhan.
He now understood that Shangguan Fei had failed, and had even been dealt with by Ji Xiuhan's men.
Shangguan Fei not only failed, but Ji Xiuhan also found out who was behind him, and even the hotel where he was hiding was thoroughly investigated.
Hu Jinlong couldn't help but curse in his heart. Shangguan Fei was a bastard. Not only was he useless, but he also betrayed him. He didn't deserve the title of top three super assassin!
"Hey Hu, stop pretending you don't know the answer. If you want to live, cooperate now and reveal your backer. We might be able to plead for you with the CEO. Otherwise, you can go and join your cronies!"
"A bodyguard said coldly."
"You mean, that Shangguan, no, that person has already been killed by you?"
Hu Jinlong was even more terrified.
"He's just a lowly assassin. He'd be reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye in front of our CEO!"
The bodyguard said with an arrogant expression.
"vanished into thin air in the blink of an eye?"
"Did your CEO do all this himself?"
Hu Jinlong's fear intensified.
"Our CEO is a god-like figure. How could you little assassins dare to mess with him?"
Let alone you guys, even ghosts and gods would avoid our CEO!
"You bunch of brain-dead assassins, how dare you accept a mission to assassinate our CEO? You're asking for trouble!"
This person has excellent speaking skills. After holding it in for so many days, he is now completely relaxed and can talk non-stop for a while.
"Could it be that the assassin known as Killer Camel, whose surname is Niu, was also killed by your CEO?"
Although Hu Jinlong had already guessed the result, he still couldn't believe it and asked again.
"Killer Camel, what is that?"
However, it seems that one of the bespectacled men has already been fed to the fish in the sea!
"They were really killed?"
Two absolute geniuses!
Who exactly is your CEO?!
At this moment, Hu Jinlong completely broke down.
"Stop talking nonsense! Quickly reveal the mastermind behind this, or you'll end up feeding the fish like them!"
As the bodyguard spoke, he kicked Hu Jinlong hard.
"I...I don't know! I just received a phone call and someone transferred some money to me. As for the person's name or where they're from, I have absolutely no idea!"
Hu Jinlong stubbornly insisted.
"You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences! I can tell you're lying!"
A bodyguard next to him flew into a rage, grabbed a toothpick from the table, and plunged it hard into Hu Jinlong's finger.
The excruciating pain made Hu Jinlong grimace and let out a piercing scream.
The pain went deep into my bones.
"If you want to suffer less, just tell us the truth! As long as you tell us, we will not make things difficult for you!"
As the saying goes, every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor…
The lead bodyguard spoke up again to persuade him.
"Don't even think about it! Even if I die, I will never tell you!"
Unexpectedly, Hu Jinlong suddenly roared, and in the blink of an eye, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and his body convulsed violently.
"That bastard, he committed suicide?"
This scene took everyone by surprise, and they hurriedly and frantically slapped Hu Jinlong's face in an attempt to save him.
But Hu Jinlong's face quickly turned ashen, and he stopped breathing completely.
"This guy would rather die than reveal his sugar daddy?"
The lead bodyguard was also somewhat bewildered.
"There are others! Arrest all those who follow Hu Jinlong and interrogate them thoroughly!"
A bodyguard reminded him.
"Yes! There are others too!"
The group acted immediately and quickly apprehended six or seven more people. These were all errand runners for Hu Jinlong, responsible for relaying messages.
They certainly couldn't possibly know any core secrets.
The bodyguards interrogated them repeatedly, beating them half to death, but they still couldn't get any useful information out of them.
In a fit of anger, he simply threw all these people to feed the fish.
However, the bodyguards remained confident, since Hu Jinlong had just been on the phone with that patron. As long as they could find the owner of that phone number, they could expose the mastermind.
One of the bodyguards had already given out the phone number.
But not long after, news came back that the number was a virtual number from overseas, and the user's real identity could not be traced at all.
"Bank account number! Check bank transfer records!"
The phone number is fake, but the bank transfer account cannot be fake.
A bodyguard quickly picked up Hu Jinlong's phone, and after a few operations, he was overjoyed to find out the recent transaction history in his mobile banking account.
