Another week had passed, the legendary family was slowly winning over what was left in Ming Zhi Yi's frontal company. The chaotic business industry started to quiet down and leaned towards the legendary families' side.
Due to the sudden absence of Ming Zhi Yi, the people of the high society concluded that the man hid just before the battle ends.
There were also rumors circulating that Ming Zhi Yi was involved in the LJ club's matter that went viral a month ago. The investigation for the LJ club was still ongoing. It was a big case that involved many high governemnt officials and famous figures in the upper society. Their investigation progress were confidential and hidden in the public. However, despite it being discreet, the matter of the case was one of the most discussed in high society.
The matter of LJ club haven't died down yet when another big news started to spread like a wild fire. A Red Notice was given to Ming Zhi Yi by the INTERPOL to alert every police worldwide.
Ming Zhi Yi had become a wanted figutive..
The situation escalated suddenly that those in power tried to learn of the matter. It turned out that a few weeks ago, the national police issued a warrant for Ming Zhi Yi. But the man was nowhere to be found. As they looked for Ming Zhi Yi, the investigation regarding the illegal manufacturing of so-called medicine drugs finally have a result. It turned out it was a deadly poison that only existed under the hands of Ming Zhi Yi.
After the result came out, the very next day, pile of evidences of Ming Zhi Yi using this poison appeared at the door of the bureau.
It turned out that this case related to many cases of the past. For an instance, in Xiong De's case, the criminal Xiong De purchased the poison he was about to use for the head of the Xiong family from Ming Zhi Yi.
There were many cases dug up because of this. Such as the sudden death of the past government officials, past businessmen, and there was even a case in the Lu family's Madam. However, because these were the cases of the past, it was hard to confirm the truth with just a little evidence that appeared miraculously in paper.
However, since Xiong De's case had powerful evidences, this case was proven related to Ming Zhi Yi. And this was enough to make the people doubt the other cases in the given file were also related to Ming Zhi Yi's man-made poison.
It even reached in the ears of the FBI and CIA.
Thus, many people began looking for Ming Zhi Yi.
With Ming Zhi Yi's broken reputation in the police, the people at his side started running one by one. Their faction was truly ruined without the leader.
Thus, Ming Zhi Yi's side quickly crumbled without him standing on it.
...
In IHZHi's office, Linfeng who was wearing his usual black suit went inside the room with a light smile.
"You are working hard as ever." The man approached Xiong Zhi's table and smoothly kissed her cheeks.
Xiong Zhi yawned. She looked at the sky that was starting to glow dark. Why did she feel so sleepy when it was just early?
She reached out the oolong tea that Fang Dien served for her as she answered Linfeng, "The matter with Ming Zhi Yi left me a great mess. The people I contacted constantly trying to bargain with me to not give the cargo to the investigation team."
Linfeng massaged her stiff shoulders, "Why do you have to bother about them? You will end up giving the cargo to the police. There's no need for bargaining."
"I can't tell them that. I need to stall time until we find Ming Zhi Yi's location. I have to make sure those people wont' change their minds and help him. In this way, Ming Zhi Yi has no way to retaliate."
Linfeng held her hand, "I am looking into it right now. I checked all the possible routes he might take. But I found nothing. Perhaps, he did not leave the country and continued hiding here."
"But why he did not leave? What is he waiting for? The only thing he could do right now is to hide and escape. Especially since they lost the cargo, he would have no way to start clean. " Xiong Zhi asked the biggest question on her mind.
Linfen was silent for a while before he solemnly answered, "Ming Zhi YI will not go down without a fight. He would not accept this loss. Surely, he still has some trump card in his hands."
When Xiong Zhi and the legendary families gave consecutive attacks on Ming Zhi Yi, Linfeng watched Ming Zhi Yi's side like a hawk. He was afraid that the man would find Xiong Zhi's scheme and would leave in a hurry. However, he never left his place. That's when he realized that Ming Zhi Yi left earlier on. Or else, while trouble kept coming up at all sides, why that man never left his office?
He must have left early as he learned of Lu Jin's betrayal. Thinking of Lu Jin, Linfeng's eyes suddenly dimmed.
Xiong Zhi who was in his arms also thought of Lu Jin, "If we are in contact with Lu Jin, we might have an idea what Ming Zhi Yi is up to and where he is." She then looked up at Linfeng, "Have you heard anything from Lu Jin?"
Linfeng shook his head. "No. My men are looking for him. However, he is also nowhere to be found. Maybe Ming Zhi Yi hid him. Or..."
Linfeng did not contnue his words. They understand the words that was left unspoken.
....'Or perhaps Lu Jin is dead already.'
Xiong Zhi sighed. She was feeling complicated in Lu Jin's matter. She would save him if they can, but they don't have any idea where he is. And the man doesn't even want them to meddle in his matters.
