The midnight air was so quiet that it felt creepy .
According to Rick's investigations, Huo Siqian has been living alone at the Huo Family Mansion . The private mansion that Song Yishi used to live in had been sold for a very low price, and although Huo Siqian had numerous estates, his favorite seemed to be the Huo Family Mansion .
After what happened between Huo Siqian and Jiang Hong, the latter, in her fury, packed up all her things and moved out .
She also stopped interfering with the Huo Corporation .
In less than a year, the only person left in the Huo Family was Huo Siqian; he even fired all the maids…
He also rarely spent any time with 'bed-buddies', Wang Shasha and Mo Xue'er . Even if he did, he would never stay overnight .
To outsiders, Huo Siqian was becoming harder and harder to understand .
The mansion was dead silent when Rick arrived; he thought a person like Huo Siqian would have a 24-hour security detail, but he didn't .
Rick suddenly remembered what Qin Chu said before he was detained, that Huo Siqian had two identities .
A lot of things probably happened during his six years in Germany…
Rick had followed Huo Siqian for a long time, but he never saw him fight . Even when Qin Chu pointed his gun at him, all he did was to smile .
Huo Siqian… was an extremely shrewd and secretive man . So much so that no one could see through his heart and predict his next actions . That was what made him more horrifying than most .
Rick took out a high-tech signal jammer, which blocked all the surveillance cameras around and inside the mansion . The originally-clear security footages immediately turned black .
Then, Rick swiftly flipped over the wall; he decided to come by himself because sending more of his people here was the same as sending them to die .
This time, he had to handle things himself, for his good friend, Qin Chu .
The mansion was pitch black, and Rick carefully and quietly made his way into the yard .
With an infrared scanner, he saw something moving at the end of the second-floor corridor . Therefore, he immediately climbed up without a sound .
A gust of icy-air blew through the windows, and Rick quickly walked up to the bed, lifted the covers and pointed his gun at whatever was under it .
"Purr… purr…"
A fat cat tied with rope cried aloud inside the comforters, and Rick noticed that he fell into a trap . The moment he turned around, all the lights in the bedroom turned on .
"My friend, I've been waiting for you," Huo Siqian said as he played with a lighter .
Rick instantly picked up his gun and aimed it at Huo Siqian's head . "My aim is very accurate . "
"I know . " Huo Siqian smiled .
"Release Qin Chu…"
"My friend, I didn't arrest him, how am I supposed to release him?" Huo Siqian continued to smile .
"You're the one behind this whole thing . If you can frame him, you can also save him . "
"What if I refuse?" Huo Siqian looked up into Rick's eyes, ever so provocatively .
"Then today… is also the day of your death," Rick said icily .
Huo Siqian glanced at Rick's golden handgun and smiled faintly .
"A P226 semi-automatic handgun from Sweden, the US army officially began using it in 2010 and changed the name to MK25 . It is currently the standard gun for the US Marine Corps . What a weapon, my friend . "
"It's more than enough to kill you," Rick replied, his expression icier than ever; he didn't want to talk bullshit with Huo Siqian . All he wanted was to deal with him as quickly as possible and save Qin Chu .
Rick came with two plans .
One, to threaten Huo Siqian into releasing Qin Chu .
Two, if the first plan fails, he was going to kill Huo Siqian and rid themselves of any future trouble . That would make saving Qin Chu all the easier .
Or else, Huo Siqian would interfere with whoever tried to save him .
"You're wrong, you don't have to use such a powerful weapon to kill me . All you need is an ordinary 54 handgun . "
"If you don't want to die, release Qin Chu right now…"
"I'm sorry… that seems impossible . It took me a long time to draw up such a perfect plan . Did you think capturing Qin Chu was easy? How can I give up just like that?"
"Yeah? If so, I have no other choice but to kill you," Rick said as his fingers began slowly pulling the trigger…
