June 1996, Bangkok, Southeast Asia.

Paka, accompanied by two henchmen, arrived at an arms factory in the suburbs. They were there to purchase weapons.

The Tula Arms Factory is an enterprise of the Want Want Group in Southeast Asia, managed by Caltim.

The products reach the entire Golden Triangle and surrounding areas in the Middle East and other places.

As a local Bangkok assassin, Paka is no stranger to the Thu La Armory.

Although he was an assassin, he was content to stay at Hongtai Group as an ordinary junior manager.

Tonight's task is to procure a batch of military supplies to replenish the losses incurred recently, as ordered by higher authorities.

Hong Tai Group is the largest local business group in Bangkok.

They are a famous conglomerate, wielding absolute power.

Being able to work for such a company is a great honor in itself.

It is also a symbol of power and status.

"We've arrived. All of you keep a close watch and don't make a sound!"

After giving instructions to his two underlings, Paka took out his phone and contacted the people at the arsenal.

He Ming, the head of the foreign arms sales department at the Tula Arms Factory, is a friend of Paka. The two have known each other for many years and have a deep friendship.

He Ming quickly appeared in front of Paka, and with a smile, punched the latter hard in the chest:
"Paka, I thought you'd vanished into thin air! I haven't seen you for over two months. Where have you been all this time? Were you hiding from your enemies?"

"He Ming, stop making fun of me."

Paka also retaliated with a punch:
"Do you think I'm as carefree as you? Alright, enough nonsense, where's the goods I ordered?"

"almost there"

The two reminisced while conducting their transaction.

Paka needs to purchase a lot of firearms and ammunition this time because Hongtai Group had previously experienced a severe shortage of supplies and now needs to make large-scale purchases to replenish its stock.

Furthermore, a major battle is expected to take place the day after tomorrow, and we cannot afford to be without sufficient munitions.

The deal was completed quickly, and Paka drove away with his henchmen and weapons.

As He Ming watched the other party's convoy disappear into the night, his eyes suddenly turned cold.

Based on his investigation and the probing he just conducted, it can be basically confirmed that Paka is indeed an assassin.

Although He Ming didn't know why the other party was hiding this, he was currently working at the Tula Arms Factory, and any accident could potentially plunge him into an abyss of no return.

Besides, aren't brothers meant to be betrayed?
Therefore, he must be very careful.

He Ming turned around and went back to the Tula Arms Factory. Just as he entered his office, his phone suddenly rang.

It was a call from the boss's secretary.

The boss summons me!

So He Ming went to the boss's office immediately.

It was still past 3 a.m., and He Ming's face was serious, but he was also wondering: at this hour, the boss must have something urgent to tell him.

Caltim was sitting in his office when he received a call a few minutes earlier asking for help finding two young girls who had come to Bangkok for tourism.

The little girl suddenly disappeared three hours earlier.

Despite Bangkok's prosperity, missing persons are a common occurrence.

Even though Caltim hadn't been in Bangkok for very long, he was already used to it.

"He Ming, we have an urgent mission. You're a local from Bangkok, so you're more familiar with the area."

When He Ming entered the office, Caltim immediately gave a brief account of the situation and asked where the two girls were most likely to be after they went missing.

He Ming's expression immediately changed, and he said:
“Boss, in Bangkok, there are mountains of missing persons cases every year. Finding them won’t be easy, and you might even offend the Hongtai Group.”

Caltim's eyes instantly turned incredibly sharp:
"You mean, this case could very well be a kidnapping orchestrated by the Hongtai Group? And is their goal organ harvesting or ransom?"

Caltim was naturally familiar with Hongtai Group.

In Bangkok, the Hong Tai Group is undoubtedly a behemoth.

If the Thu La Armory were not backed by the Want Want Group, it would inevitably face suppression from the Hong Tai Group if it wanted to establish itself in Bangkok.

Hongtai Group operates many businesses, with its largest sectors being real estate, automobiles, and gold.

But in reality, they also run other businesses, such as the highly profitable demographic dividend.

Hundreds or even thousands of people go missing in Bangkok every year; the exact number is probably unknown.

Anyway, there is a slum on the outskirts of Bangkok where tens of thousands of illegal immigrants from abroad have gathered.

These people did not stay in Bangkok voluntarily; they were forced to.

They wanted to find their missing relatives in Bangkok, but the local police chiefs were in cahoots with the Hong Tai Group and would never do anything for these ordinary poor people.

Even the police chiefs repeatedly ordered officers to expel these illegal poor people.

They threaten the lives and property of these poor people, preventing them from speaking freely.

Caltim had only vaguely heard that Hongtai Group had such a criminal record. The group was not an ordinary legitimate enterprise, but a giant conglomerate that operated in both the legal and illegal worlds.

They don't care about the lives of ordinary people. For the sake of profit, they accept all sorts of dirty and tiring jobs, such as collusion between officials and businessmen, smuggling, human trafficking, and organ trading.

Caltim's strategy has always been very simple: prioritize self-preservation and ignore Hongtai Group as much as possible.

After all, the other side wouldn't dare to do anything to their Tula Arms Factory.

However, to my utter surprise, something terrible happened today.

"Boss, generally speaking, they collect the ransom first, and then sell the person."

He Ming secretly thought his boss was a bit naive. Hongtai Group definitely wanted both the ransom and the profits from organ trafficking, squeezing out every last bit of value.

Anyway, the Hongtai Group is backed by the entire Bangkok area, and their shareholders include local Bangkok warlords.

Therefore, Hongtai Group is naturally fearless and has no reason to be afraid of ordinary wealthy people.

Upon hearing this, Caltim was stunned for a moment, his face paling slightly, before he suddenly said sternly:

"Contact Hongtai Group immediately and ask if they kidnapped the two girls. If they did, release them first, otherwise, hmph."

One of the two missing girls is Qi Miaomiao, the daughter of a manager at the Motong Toys factory.

She came to Bangkok with her best friend Qiao Xinxin for a college graduation trip.

But they never imagined that a trip to Bangkok would cost them their lives.

"Okay, Boss, I'll contact them right now."

He Ming knew the seriousness of the matter and immediately called Paka.

Although Paka's position was not high, he knew exactly who had kidnapped the two girls, Qi Miaomiao and Qiao Xinxin.

Paka was shocked when he received the call.

"You mean the daughter of one of your boss's friends went missing in Bangkok? Just three hours ago?"

"Okay, I understand. I'll contact them right away to confirm. Their names are Qi Miaomiao and Qiao Xinxin, right?"

After confirming the information, Paka hung up the phone, his face instantly turning grim.

He was alone at that moment, so he didn't hide his inner thoughts.

Hongtai Group is indeed too domineering, and its actions violate the natural order.

Unfortunately, the Hongtai Group held absolute power in Bangkok, and Paka alone was powerless to reverse the situation or dismantle this behemoth.

Perhaps this is an opportunity.

Take this opportunity to bring in the Want Want Group behind the Tula Arms Factory, and then work together to deal with the Hongtai Group.

After figuring this out, Paka immediately got up, went out, and quickly left the scene.

Twenty minutes later, he arrived at a Hongtai Group outpost in the suburbs.

According to He Ming's confession, the last place where Qi Miaomiao and the others disappeared must be the stronghold where they eventually gathered.

Upon arriving at the base, Paka immediately sought out Nata, the base's manager.

"Hey, isn't this Paka? What brings you here all of a sudden?"

Nata looked at Paka with a smirk, his eyes full of provocation.

Paka is a very skilled fighter and has been the most popular enforcer in the group in the past year or two, receiving attention from the group's top management.

In less than a year, Paka rose three ranks, becoming level with Nata.

This is not good news for Nata.

Because he had fought Paka several times and found that he was no match for him at all.

Even though Paka can't threaten his position right now, it's said that the higher-ups have started proposing to bring Paka into the management team.

If Paka is selected as a candidate for management, Nata will definitely be insanely jealous.

He only wanted to be in management more than anyone else, but unfortunately he had done a few stupid things before, otherwise he would have been in management long ago.

Now that even a junior like Paka could potentially enter the management team before him, how can he remain calm?

If he could kill Paka, Nata would definitely not hesitate to use bullets.

Unfortunately, Paka wouldn't give him that chance. "Nata, I'm asking you, did you receive two girls here today?"

Paka had no interest in exchanging pleasantries and spoke in a purely businesslike tone.

Nata lost his temper:

"Paka, are you ordering me around? Are you a high-ranking executive? You're not that old, but you've got quite the nerve."

Just as Nata was about to slap Paka's face, the latter suddenly reached out and grabbed the other's hand.

"Nata, I'm not going to argue with you about this. Answer me right now, if it's not true."

At this moment, Paka's anger was almost turning into thick magma.

If he hadn't still retained some sense, he would have sent Nata to meet God long ago.

"Haha, Paka, have you taken the wrong medicine?"

Nata continued his provocations, showing no fear of his opponent. Behind him stood more than a dozen brothers; what could Paka possibly do alone?

"So it really was you who did it?"

Paka narrowed his eyes, already certain in his mind, and immediately turned and left.

"Tch, spineless coward!" Nata sneered disdainfully.

Meanwhile, He Ming received a call from Paka, from whom he learned the location of the stronghold.

“He Ming, it’s not that I’m unwilling to help you, but Nata seems to have a grudge against me. He won’t even give me face, and I haven’t even entered the stronghold, so I’m not 100% sure.”

"But what we can confirm is that all those kidnapped in the vicinity, and all missing persons, will be brought to this base within a short time. If you want to rescue them, you must do so as soon as possible."

"Paka said calmly."

His original plan was to delay for half an hour, until Qi Miaomiao and Qiao Xinxin were killed, before notifying He Ming.

By the time He Ming and his group arrived at the stronghold, Qi Miaomiao and her companion would surely be dead.

At that time, the senior executives of Want Want Group will definitely be furious.

Paka learned from the assassin world that the Tula Armory had intricate connections with the Want Want Group, an underground conglomerate known for its fierce protection of its own.

Therefore, since the two girls, Qi Miaomiao and Qiao Xinxin, were murdered, Hongtai Group will definitely be dealt with.

At that time, Paka can take the opportunity to bring Want Want Group into the fray, making the two sides fight even more fiercely.

Given the strength of Want Want Group, even if it cannot completely uproot Hung Tai Group, it can certainly cripple it.

However, when the time came, Paka ultimately still had some conscience.

After leaving the base, he immediately called He Ming.

I hope it's not too late.

After hanging up the phone, He Ming immediately reported the situation to Caltim.

The latter immediately issued an order, instructing He Ming to lead his men to the stronghold at once, as rescuing people was the priority.

After He Ming left, Caltim made another phone call to the management of the Magic Child Toy Factory and gave a brief explanation.

He then reported the situation to his superiors.

The Hideb project site on the Somali Peninsula.

After listening to what Yabo Fein said, Zheng Baoyin sighed:
"Have the missing persons cases in Bangkok become so rampant that they even dare to target people from our Want Want Group?"

The latter nodded and said:

"Yes, the entire city of Bangkok has descended into madness. They're willing to do anything for profit, so of course they won't care about anything else."

"The Hongtai Group is the biggest mastermind behind this, along with their local warlords and some American businessmen."

The global underground dark world's gray profit chain is quite massive.

The rich have money, but they don't have strong bodies, and at the same time, they hope to live longer.

David Rockefeller, a famous member of the Rockefeller family, underwent multiple heart replacement surgeries.

Leaving aside the heart replacement failures, this person has already had four successful heart replacements.

In other words, four people donated their hearts to David Rockefeller.

These four people paid with their own lives.

So where does the heart come from?
Where there is demand, there will naturally be a market.

As long as there is profit to be made, finding a source of goods becomes very simple.

In addition to the so-called organ trade, there is also the buying and selling of human specimens.

There is a huge demand for human specimens from hospitals and medical schools around the world.

Fake human specimens are naturally unsuitable; medical school research requires the most authentic human specimens.

However, the requirements for human specimens are still very high.

However, obtaining high-standard human specimens is not so easy.

Therefore, in the end, these human specimens could only be obtained through special channels.

This is the world's darkest underground gray industry chain.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Baoyin shook his head and said:

"As expected, people die for wealth, and birds die for food!"

"Ideally, we should rescue them. If we can't, then we should teach Hongtai Group a lesson."

He paused for a moment, then suddenly thought of his own child. The thought of his future child encountering a similar situation sent chills down his spine.

He doesn't think such things are far removed from him.

He knew all too well what those who would stop at nothing to gain profit would do.

So he immediately added:
"It would be best to cripple Hongtai Group."

It's not easy to cut off one of their arms.

Especially local powerhouses like Hongtai Group, if given the chance, many outsiders would probably try to take down such interest groups.

Yabo Fein nodded and said:
"I'll arrange it."

Zheng Baoyin did not continue the discussion, thinking it was a trivial matter.

However, half a day later, Zheng Baoyin received news that Caltim was seriously injured and hospitalized, and that the Tula Arsenal had been surrounded by thugs from the Hongtai Group.

"Too arrogant!"

Hongtai Group has really gone too far; how dare they make such a big fuss?

Didn't the top management of Hongtai Group know that Want Want Group was behind the Tula Arms Factory?
Perhaps they knew, but it's also possible that what Caltim did went too far, forcing Hongtai Group to retaliate.

Zheng Baoyin immediately requested a meeting of senior executives to discuss how to deal with the matter.

Harbin Institute of Technology, Weizigou Campus.

Wang Duoyu had just gotten up and was brushing his teeth in the bathroom when he was met with a disapproving look from his daughter.

"Hmph, you stinky dad."

What happened last night has prevented Wang Yifei from forgiving her father.

She only got 92 points on the test, but her dad kept staring at her and her mom even spanked her.

hum!

"Wang Qianqian, is your butt itchy?"

"cut!"

The little girl scoffed dismissively, turned around, and walked away, tossing her ponytail.

After breakfast, Wang Duoyu did not go to the laboratory, but instead went to the study villa across the street.

Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) has launched a large number of research projects. He needs to sort them out to see if any of Want Want Group's projects overlap with HIT's projects.

If so, then adjustments need to be made.

Because we've made a few jokes or had arguments before.

Want Want Group had finally thoroughly researched the technology and was ready to apply for a patent, only to find out when they were about to submit that Harbin Institute of Technology had already applied for a patent some time earlier.

And this is not an isolated case.

It's either a conflict with research projects at Harbin Institute of Technology, or a conflict with other universities.

Since this has happened several times, we need to be more careful in the future after such a situation occurs.

Wang Duoyu looked at the research projects for a while, approved them, and then stretched.

At that moment, his phone received a notification for an emergency meeting submitted by Zheng Baoyin.

So he joined the meeting chat room, but he chose to remain invisible.

"Hongtai Group? What's going on?"

Soon, he learned the general outline of the matter from Zheng Baoyin.

Meanwhile, Nuwa's artificial intelligence also began investigating this. (End of Chapter)
