You were allowed to marry into No. 76 family, and you were promoted to director?

Chapter 289 Handover
Nan Ting looked coldly at Sakai Michiko not far away, and replied in a voice as cold and mechanical as ever:
“My mission is to round up the people who escaped from the Cathay Hotel and whose whereabouts are suspicious. I didn’t hear that we were to capture them alive, and the item is on that person. If we kill them, we can still get it.”

Bobby's lips twitched slightly. What exactly was this ice-cold woman up to?
Jenny's pupils contracted slightly upon hearing this, and she quickly reached out and ripped off the gauze wrapped around Bobby's waist. Sofia also cooperated perfectly, taking out a roll of film wrapped in plastic from Bobby's wound.

The entire sequence of movements was executed flawlessly, completed the instant Nan Ting finished speaking.

When Bobby said the item was on his body, Jenny and Sophia immediately thought of Bobby's abdominal injury.

Seeing that Sofia had taken out the film and was about to expose it, Nan Ting smiled coldly:
"Michiko Sakai, you really are an idiot!"

Michiko was speechless, but thinking about what she had just said, she wanted to slap herself.

"Don't move, or I'll expose the film, and then nobody will get their hands on it."

Michiko's expression darkened after taking a deep breath.

“Who knows if it’s true or not?”

Although Bobby was in excruciating pain, she still replied through gritted teeth:

"I guarantee it's real. I snatched this from the British oil exploration team when they were being hunted by the Japanese. I got it by chance. I've already had it authenticated. This oil exploration report is absolutely genuine."

"Furthermore, this report indicates that the oil was discovered in the Southeast Asian region that you currently control."

Upon hearing Bobby's words, Tols and Gomarev were already furious.

"OMG Fuck!"

Thors kicked Bobby to the ground. That bastard, why didn't he say before that the survey location was in Southeast Asia, and that it was in Japanese-controlled territory?

No wonder the British oil exploration team was hunted down by the Japanese.

So, the Japanese invited the British oil exploration team to conduct surveys, and then the Japanese went to hunt down and kill these people.
Jenny and Sophia simultaneously came to a conclusion that made them grit their teeth.

This whole show was directed by the Japanese from beginning to end. They were all played like monkeys by the Japanese!

The next second, Jenny and Sophia wisely threw the guns on the ground.

Having come to this conclusion, the two were basically certain that the oil exploration report Bobby had snatched from the British was most likely fake.

Therefore, both of them felt that it was not worth risking their lives for counterfeit goods, and Jenny and Sophia even planned to settle this score with the Japanese later!

"Surrender, and we'll go with you."

Hearing Jenny's words and seeing that both Jenny and Sophia had thrown away their guns, Tors and Gomarev also felt that an oil source in Japanese-occupied territory was not worth risking their lives for.

Seeing that all four had put down their guns, Michiko Sakai's face darkened completely, because she also thought of the conclusion Sophia and Jenny had reached.

The Cathay Hotel was actually a setup orchestrated by someone from beginning to end, but what that setup was for, Michiko Sakai had no idea.

Shanghai, the former French Concession, Gongji Hospital.

When Zhao Xuan was brought in on a stretcher, the surgeon was almost scared out of his wits. In addition, there was a group of aggressive Japanese people, two women who looked cold, and Dao Ya who was crying. The surgeon quickly had Zhao Xuan pushed into the operating room that had been prepared.

In the corridor outside the operating room, two doctors were still examining Aizawa Keiko for internal injuries, while Aizawa Keiko looked at Dao Yan standing beside her and said:
"I will catch him."

Dao Yan looked towards the operating room with worry in her eyes, too lazy to even get angry at Lan Zehuizi:

"If I could, I'd like to shoot him myself!"

Tiger cub!

You killed Tojo Jun, but if Zhao Xuan dies too, I'll never forgive you!

Dao Ya stood weakly by the wall, her eyes flickering as she stared at the operating room. Although there was some worry in her eyes, it wasn't much. The reason Dao Ya was nervous now was because she had gotten something in the ambulance, which she was now clutching tightly in her hand.

Dao Ya had just seen what it was. Her brother-in-law had given it to her once before when her master went on a mission: a nano-earphone, or a nano-phone.

With a flick of her wrist, Daoya placed the nano-earpiece into her ear canal, and soon Edith's voice rang out.

(Tiger Girl, don't worry, Mr. is alright, he just looks a bit bad. He asked me to tell you that Marus is hiding in room 412 of the Cathay Hotel, in a secret compartment under the bed. Mr. used two sets of explosives, and left one set inside. The weapons have been basically untouched.)
(The hidden compartment was cleverly designed, but the Special Higher Police's technical department will probably be able to find it. Also, after the explosion, the boss sent something to monitor the movements of Sophia and the other three. Now all four of them, including Bobby, have been captured by agents from the original agency. At the same time, the original agency and those four agents know that the oil exploration report is fake.)
Dao Ya listened quietly, feeling a sense of relief, while her lips pursed slightly.

That stinky brother-in-law, he scared me to death!

(Sir, you will probably need to recuperate for a long time this time. During this period, there is a task that needs to be completed by you.)
"Xiaoya, are you alright?"

Noticing that Dao Ya was clenching her fists and leaning against the wall, both Aizawa Keiko and Dao Yan were a little worried.

Hearing the voice, Daoya, who had just finished listening to Edith's words, quickly turned around and shook her head, tears welling up in her eyes:
"Sister, Sister Huizi, brother-in-law will be alright, right?"

Dao Yan stepped forward and gently pulled Dao Ya into her arms, comforting her:

"Don't worry, Xiaoya, Ah Xuan will be fine."

Lan Zehui took a deep breath. She also hoped that Zhao Xuan would be alright and pull through.

However, as Lan Zehuizi watched Zhao Xuan's injuries, she lost more and more confidence. Especially when she saw the surgeon's shocked expression when he saw Zhao Xuan being brought in, Lan Zehuizi didn't dare to think any further.

After adjusting her state, Aizawa Keiko looked at Dao Yan:
"Dao Yan, are you interested in coming back with me to find the person? There's no point in us staying here."

Aizawa Keiko really wanted to stay, but she was afraid that if she heard bad news right away, she would have no energy left to capture the enemy.

Dao Yan paused for a moment, then instantly understood what Lan Ze Huizi meant.

Upon hearing this, Dao Ya, who was just thinking about how to trick them into leaving, couldn't let this golden opportunity slip by.

"Sister, Sister Huizi, you must catch the murderer. I'll stay here and tell you as soon as I have good news."

Dao Yan nodded with a cold gaze. Although it was almost impossible to find the young tiger now, what if!
After taking a deep breath, Dao Yan looked at Lan Ze Huizi and said:
"Just to my liking."

After leaving the operating room, Aizawa Keiko first went to the hospital nurses' station and borrowed a phone to make a call.

"I am Aizawa Keiko."

Before she could finish speaking, a voice came from the other end of the phone. Without avoiding Dao Yan's gaze, Lan Ze Huizi said directly, "Mother, Uncle Tojo is dead, and Zhao Sang, seriously injured, has been sent to Gongji Hospital. Now, I need the French Concession to grant me search privileges. Give me three days. Three days... What? The murderer has already been caught, and the forensic department has corroborated the evidence?"

"Okay, Dao Yan and I will be right there."

Dao Yan looked at Lan Ze Huizi with a somewhat dazed expression:

"What did you just say? The enemy has been captured?"

Aizawa Keiko was somewhat skeptical, but still replied:
"That's what my mother said: the original authorities caught the murderers, those foreigners. They wanted to create chaos to rescue Bobby, and they were the ones who planted the explosives, which came from that German arms dealer, Marus."

“Now, Marus, Sophia, Jenny, Tors, and Gomarev are under control.”

"There's one more thing. Those South Korean agents also took advantage of the chaos to kidnap Li Xiangjun. They should still be hiding in the French Concession. Let's go check on them."

Dao Yan frowned slightly and asked:

"You don't believe they've already captured the enemy?"

Aizawa Keiko nodded:

“I don’t believe it. I want to see the chain of evidence myself and conduct the interrogation myself. I won’t believe it until I hear and see it with my own eyes.”

At this point, Aizawa Keiko lowered her head:
"Dao Yan, I'm sorry. If it weren't for me, Zhao Sang..."

Dao Yan raised his hand and patted Lan Ze Huizi on the shoulder:

“No, Ah Xuan isn’t doing this because of you, but because of me and his family. If something happens to you, everyone in the elevator will be a suspect. If we don’t save you, no one will be able to testify for Ah Xuan.”

Lan Zehui suddenly looked up at Dao Yan. Looking at Dao Yan's indifferent face, Lan Zehui felt bitter. Perhaps, there really was such a reason.

But so what?

Ah Xuan saved me!

Soon, Lan Zehuizi and Dao Yan returned to the Huamao Hotel, which had been completely sealed off.

Upon seeing the two arrive, Murakami Yua quickly went to greet them along with Kishimoto Osamu and the others.

"Section Chief, we've investigated and confirmed that the explosives came from the same batch that Marus hid at the Cathay Hotel."

"The weapons in the hands of Sofia and the other three also came from the batch of weapons that Marus hid."

At this time, Osamu Kishimoto also said:

"After the original agency captured Sofia and the other three, they immediately reported to the cabinet and contacted the military police headquarters. They then contacted our Special Higher Police. Although Sofia and the other three denied it, after comparison, it was basically confirmed that they were the ones who created the explosion and wanted to take Bobby away in the chaos."

"Furthermore, it has been determined that the oil exploration report is fake, and someone orchestrated this to lure them here."

At this point, Kishimoto Osamu dared not continue, as this meant that even Tojo Jun had been caught in the crossfire.

If Tojo Jun hadn't gotten into trouble, things would have been fine, but now that he's dead, the people who orchestrated this are probably in for a world of trouble.

Aizawa Keiko had long suspected that this whole affair was likely a scheme orchestrated by her mother. She had also deduced the general intentions of Tojo's negotiation with Marus.

But now, Uncle Tojo has died because of this, and the man she cares about most besides her mother is also missing and his fate is unknown because of this.

Aizawa Keiko currently harbors a strong grudge against Watanabe Kyoko, so for the time being, Aizawa Keiko doesn't want to hear anything about Watanabe Kyoko.

If Watanabe Kyoko is unlucky, then so be it. She deserves it!
Now, Aizawa Keiko just wants to confirm one thing: Are Sophia and the other three really working together with Marus to smuggle the oil exploration report?
Aizawa Keiko waved her hand, silencing Kishimoto Osamu, and then turned to Murakami Yua:
"Yua, has the location for planting the explosives been determined?"

Yua Murakami nodded and led everyone toward the elevator.

"Section Chief, look over here. The explosives were planted in this location. We've also checked all the ventilation ducts and the barbed wire inside. Except for the barbed wire on the fourth floor leading to Bobby's room, which showed signs of being pried open, the barbed wire in the other places remained unchanged."

"Moreover, most of Marus's weapons were hidden in a secret compartment under the bed in room 412 on the fourth floor. We found the explosives there and, after comparison, confirmed that the explosives that exploded in the elevator were the same as those obtained from the weapons hidden by Marus."

Aizawa Keiko carefully examined the spot Murakami Yua had pointed out, but couldn't discern anything. However, she also understood why she hadn't died in such a massive explosion; thanks to Zhao Xuan's protection, she had only suffered a mild concussion.

The problem lies in the location where the explosives were installed.

Tojo Jun was practically standing in that position.

This shows that the person who planted the explosives had a very good grasp of human psychology.

Honestly, no one dared to compete with Tojo Jun for the middle position. And once Tojo Jun entered the elevator, he naturally stood there, so no one could tell him to get out of the way.

While they were getting on the elevator, Zhao Xuan was talking to her. Lan Zehui was somewhat relieved. If Zhao Xuan hadn't mentioned that Sophia and the other three had gone to find Dao Ya in the middle of the night last night, she would have felt that they were about to make a move. So she started discussing it with Zhao Xuan.

If it weren't for this incident, I would have stood right next to Tojo Jun after entering the elevator, and she would have died the same way Tojo Jun died.

"A trigger-activated explosive?"

"Dao Yan, what do you think?"

Dao Yan stood beside Lan Ze Huizi the whole time, and she heard the whole story that Murakami Yua had just explained.

"It should be a trigger-activated power supply. Once the elevator reaches the first floor, it will definitely detonate the explosives."

Although he answered Aizawa Keiko's question, Dao Yan's mind was in turmoil.

This was naturally due to Yua Murakami's test results.

The only evidence found in the ventilation ducts was that the wire mesh connecting Sophia and Jenny's rooms to Bobby's room on the fourth floor had been pried open again.

But that night, with my cooperation, Zhao Xuan also left through the ventilation duct. If there were no signs of disturbance in this area, how did Zhao Xuan manage to leave through the ventilation duct and get the grenade?

Dao Yan still remembers clearly what Zhao Xuan said: the grenade had been hidden in a flowerpot, and that flowerpot was the only one of its kind in the second-floor ballroom.

Could it be that Zhao Xuan lied to him?
