Chapter 791 The Lu Family: It seems there's an even bigger secret...
"not yet."
Zhou Wen shook his head, thought for a moment, and awkwardly comforted him, "No matter what, you don't need to worry about her safety. Even if everyone else dies, Chu Xin will still be fine."
Zhou Yichen: ...Chu Xin will be fine, but it would be better if too many people died.
Tsk, speaking of which, Zhou Yichen suddenly realized that the person who should be having a headache right now is someone else.
Given Chu Xin's ruthless nature, she probably won't hold back this time either. Zhou Yichen wonders what the person in charge of cleaning up the mess is thinking. He hopes the other party will keep quiet and clean up the mess properly, otherwise, if they keep arguing, he might get punished too.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yichen couldn't help but smile slightly, and said insincerely, "If she will be safe, then of course everyone else should be safe too. How can you say they're all dead?"
Zhou Wen glanced at him without saying anything. His own people were definitely fine, but as for the enemy, everyone knew perfectly well that few who went against Chu Xin would come out unscathed.
As the two were talking, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and Chu Yunting rushed in as if his pants were on fire. Seeing the half-full glass of water on the table, he grabbed it without thinking and gulped it down in several large mouthfuls.
"boom!"
The cup was slammed back down, and the man, exhausted, slid slowly into a chair, supporting himself on the table and panting heavily.
Zhou Yichen frowned, disdainfully placing his cup a little further away. Seeing Chu Yunting panting like a dog, he didn't rush to ask what happened.
He simply asked, "Are you still thirsty?"
Chu Yunting shook his head, swallowed hard to calm his pounding heart, and then reached into his pocket. "Let's see what I found!"
As he spoke, he slammed a metallic object onto the table. Zhou Wen and Zhou Yichen looked over, and their expressions immediately turned serious. "Where did this come from?"
It was a very small mini camera with a silver-gray body that gleamed coldly. The edges were polished to a shine, and a black lens was embedded in the front. There were only three tiny knobs on the side, not even a proper shutter button, but they would never mistake it for what it was used for.
Zhou Yichen reached out and took the item, pressing his thumb on the protrusion at the top of the camera body. With a soft "click," the lens slowly extended half an inch, exuding an extremely professional precision. Then, he brought the camera closer to the worn-out black vinyl on the back and saw the traditional Chinese characters "Made by Sanwa Optical Machinery Co., Ltd."
Zhou Yichen clenched the object tightly in his hand, staring intently at Chu Yunting. "Where did this come from?!"
"Well, I've been following Lu Zhaolin and his son these past two days. At first, I didn't notice anything wrong, but then Lu Zhaolin started going out frequently, which made me a little puzzled. Everyone in our circle knows he's usually a homebody and rarely goes out except for work."
But I discovered that he wasn't staying home all the time; he just concealed himself when he went out, carrying an easel and going to be a painter.
Something was clearly wrong, so I kept a close eye on him, and guess what? I discovered that he had been going to the state-owned Factory 5411 multiple times.
Others may not know, but we do. That area is officially known as the state-owned Hongguang Machinery Factory, but in reality, it is an important secret military industrial unit that ensures the supply of air defense weapons and ammunition.
I knew perfectly well that Lu Zhaolin was up to no good, so while he was wandering around looking for a place to paint, I seized the opportunity to suddenly rush up and bump into him.
My original plan was to make him fall flat on his face and break his easel, so he'd fail miserably and get out of there sooner. I never expected him to break into this thing. Without saying a word, I grabbed it and ran.
After finishing his speech, Chu Yunting felt thirsty again. He slumped on the table like a boss and kicked Zhou Wen, "Hey bro, can you pour me another glass of water?"
Zhou Wen grunted and went out to pour him water, while Zhou Yichen's expression was chillingly cold. "The Lu family...it seems there's an even bigger secret..."
