Faced with Han Yan's questioning, Han Feng shrugged helplessly. "What can I transport? It's all the frogmen's precious materials. They're all obtained from the Fertile Chalk System by the space exploration teams. The profits are high, that's all."
The frogmen's various body parts were all precious materials to the Empire. These things weren't under the Empire's control, so it wasn't illegal to transport them. However, it wasn't legal to trade them either. This was because the Empire was worried that some extraterrestrial forces would use them to make an issue out of them. To put it bluntly, Han Feng was walking on a tightrope.
Han Yan glared at him. "Of all the things you can do, why do you have to do this? With the Han family's reputation and power, do we need to play this game?"
Han Feng rolled his eyes. "I know. You're just worried that it'll affect your career.
I'll be careful. "
He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and lit one up to express his dissatisfaction.
Han Yan said, "There's one more thing I need to remind you of. Today, a good friend of mine from the military sent me a message. This afternoon, someone from the military's Special Operations Department used a new investigation warrant from General Luo to search for people in their database."
Han Feng looked a little innocent. "What does that have to do with me?"
Han Yan finally said something shocking. "This year, it's been rumored that a mysterious expert has appeared in the Holy Grail Federation. This person is extremely powerful, but we still don't know his true identity. Rumor has it that he's already in the Norse Empire. This person has a lot of connections with the military. I suspect that General Luo's new investigation warrant was used by this person. You have to know that even I don't have the authority to look at the warrant used by this person."
Han Feng was a little impatient. "What does this mean?"
Han Yan said, "Do you know who he was investigating this afternoon?"
Han Feng didn't say anything else.
Han Yan suddenly listed a long list of names. "Jenna, Hu Yusen, Li Tianming, He Xiaobao, Chu Mengzhou, Li Coco, Yang Xianghui …"
Hearing the last name, Han Feng couldn't help but raise his head in shock. "It can't be …"
"It's her!" Han Yan said without hesitation. "The beauty of your department when you were studying at Xing Wu University."
Han Feng was startled and couldn't help but laugh. "How many years ago was that?"
Han Yan, however, couldn't laugh. "These people have two common characteristics. First, they all died suddenly five or six years ago. The police department identified them as accidents. Second, they are all led by Huo Ming, including the relatives of the students under his command."
Han Feng couldn't laugh anymore. The Huo Ming couple had indeed been targeted by his father. The main reason was to help him vent his anger when he had been rejected. There was no other way. In the Han family, other than Han Yan, he was the most favored junior.
Now that someone was investigating these dead people, it was clear that they were targeting the Han family. If it really was the investigator that General Luo had authorized, then they would be in big trouble this time.
"Tell me honestly, do you have anything to do with the deaths of these people?" Han Yan's gaze was as sharp as a knife.
Han Feng almost jumped up. "Oh my god, how could I possibly commit murder and arson?"
Ding Meng heard this from afar and couldn't help but sneer. Even if you didn't do it, you can't get away with it.
Han Yan stared at him for a while and said coldly, "You should stop for a while. Don't go anywhere. Just stay in Xing Wu City."
Then, without waiting for Han Feng's reaction, she turned around and walked towards the door of the villa. Han Feng stood there for a long time, unable to come back to his senses.
"What the hell is this? Ridiculous!" Han Feng was a little annoyed and flicked the cigarette butt into the river.
At that moment, his wristband vibrated and a voice communication request popped up. Han Feng looked at it and immediately accepted.
This voice communication increased the difficulty for Ding Meng. Because it wasn't an instant video communication, the voice was much lower. Ding Meng had no choice but to shrink the force field again and release more micro dots to listen carefully.
The voice on the other side was indeed very low. "Mr. Han, I have something to report to you. Mr. 94 just sent a message. He wants to receive the goods in half the time."
Han Feng was a little surprised. "Didn't I send him a message this morning?
The goods will be delivered in 30 days. It hasn't even been that long, and he wants to deliver the goods in 15 days? This is against the rules. "
The other side said, "Mr. 94 sent a message saying that he couldn't contact his two subordinates this afternoon. According to our understanding, Mr. Fu was also one of the people who couldn't be contacted this afternoon."
Han Feng's tone became serious. "Could something have happened to the ocean company?"
The other party said, "I've just sent someone over to take a look. There's nothing wrong with the China Ocean Company. The technicians are still there, but we can't find Director Fu himself. Mr. 94's two attendants are also missing. No one knows where they went."
Han Feng nodded and said, "Got it. I'll come back as soon as possible to deal with it …"
Hearing this, Ding Meng finally understood that there was nothing wrong with Han Yan. The problem was with this Han Feng. This kid was doing business with the Hidden Front. Perhaps this kid didn't even know who he was doing business with.
Ding Meng also understood the Hidden Front's thinking. Starting from the Christine Academy, the Hidden Front had been contacting their partners at all levels one by one. However, these partners didn't know who the Hidden Front was. The contacts only appeared in code. This way, their people wouldn't be easily exposed.
Ding Meng suddenly remembered that he asked Fu Mingyu at the ocean company during the day, "What kind of spaceship did you take?
Was there a logo? "
Before Fu Mingyu died, he said, "The logo is Wasp …"
Before he could finish, he was killed. It turned out that the "Wasp" he was referring to was the Han Family's Beehive Corporation. All the clues were now clear. Number 94 was about to surface.
However, just as he was about to leave quietly, he suddenly felt a chill on his cheek, like a leaf gently brushing past. If it were anyone else, they might have thought it was a cool breeze at night. However, Ding Meng was an expert. He immediately sensed danger approaching.
It was too late to use the Thousand Shadow Strike now. Ding Meng slowly stood up and turned around. Behind him, a tall and straight shadow was standing at the fork in the mountain path, staring at him like a wolf in the shadows. This person was none other than the eldest son of the Han Family, Han Li. He had actually snuck up behind Ding Meng without him noticing.
Of course, Ding Meng wasn't being careless. In order to avoid Han Yan's perception, he had deliberately reduced the range of his telekinesis vision. In addition, he had been eavesdropping on Han Feng's conversation with all his might, so he didn't notice anything behind him.
However, it had to be said that Han Li's perception was quite good. He had actually sensed the abnormality in the area around him.
The two of them were about forty to fifty meters apart. This distance was already quite close. Neither of them spoke, nor did they move their hands. They just stared at each other like two ghosts in a stalemate in the dark. The slightest movement could cause the other to suddenly attack.
"Hello!" Han Li suddenly spoke.
Ding Meng didn't answer. He was already feeling a little pressured. As a fleet commander who had been out on patrol for many years, what kind of strange things had he not seen?
The reason Han Li was able to find him must be because he had sensed the energy field formed by Ding Meng's telekinesis.
Han Li said again, "Friend, this is not a place where you should be, and it's not a place where you should be. I don't want to hurt anyone. Take off your wristband. I will guarantee your safety."
Ding Meng still ignored him. He turned around again and found that Han Yan and her three female attendants were already about a hundred meters away from him. They were walking towards him with extremely light steps. The Han Family members had already surrounded him from all sides.
Han Yan wasn't as calm and polite as Han Li. She said with a cold expression, "How dare you?
How dare you trespass into the Han Family's private residence. Don't you know the laws of the Empire?
Do you want to die? "
Ding Meng said in a low voice, "A family like yours should know the laws of the Empire better than anyone else."
Han Yan frowned. She didn't understand what he meant.
Ding Meng said, "A life for a life, and a debt must be repaid!"
His words were simple, but Han Yan immediately knew what he meant. This shorty in front of her was probably here for Fourth Brother.
Han Yan said, "I don't care who you are or who ordered you to come here. Now that you've trespassed into a private residence, you'd better cooperate. Take off your wristband and reveal your identity. The police will deal with you as they see fit."
Ding Meng smiled. "I don't think you're going to hand me over to the police."
Han Yan's expression was cold. She gestured with her fingers, and the three female attendants immediately rushed forward like ghosts.
When Ding Meng got off the ship, he could tell that these three female attendants weren't ordinary people. Their actions now confirmed his suspicions.
These three female soldiers were not only strong and experienced, but they also cooperated with each other very well. The first one threw a heavy punch straight at Ding Meng, causing a strong gust of wind to surround them. She was trying to force Ding Meng to dodge.
Ding Meng didn't let her down. He bounced up from where he stood, but his posture was a little strange. He turned halfway in the air and used his elbow to block the second female soldier's palm strike from behind. At the same time, he used the force of the strike to launch himself forward. He was already flying to the tree on the opposite side. The third female soldier's flying kick missed its target.
Han Yan and Han Li both nodded at the same time. These three female attendants had been with Han Yan for many years. Although they weren't top experts, they rarely failed. However, Ding Meng seemed to have predicted their moves beforehand, and he easily avoided them. How dare he come to the Han family's territory to spy on them if he didn't have some skills.
"I don't want to make a big deal out of this. Stubbornly resisting won't do you any good." Han Yan's face was as dark as water.
In her eyes, Ding Meng's refusal to surrender was already an affront to her authority. She wanted to arrest him because she was giving him face, but he dared to dodge.
Ding Meng stood still on a tree branch. "I don't want to make a big deal out of this either. As long as the person who should plead guilty pleads guilty, there's no need for me to get involved in this mess."
"How dare you!" Han Li suddenly said. "The Han family has always been open and aboveboard. We won't tolerate petty people talking behind our backs."
Ding Meng looked at him. "I'm just afraid that some of you have done something that even he doesn't know about!"
