The car stopped 200 meters away from Zeus Apartments. Moore was standing by the roadside, lightly kicking a chess piece. His actions seemed bored and casual, but those who knew him well understood that he was growing impatient.

When Wen Xin got out of the car, Moore quickly walked up to her. “Why did you suddenly ask me to come here?”

“Fishing for a needle in the ocean isn’t getting us anywhere. It’s better to change tactics and let him take us directly to find him.”

Wen Xin’s bright black eyes were fixed on the distant building. She had recuperated there before, but that didn’t mean she would hesitate to destroy it.

“Let’s go talk to Alfredo. If he refuses to take us, there’s no need to show mercy. If we have to, we’ll kill him. I’ll handle the Independent State myself, even if it means fighting those old bastards.”

“You mean Alfredo is involved in this? That’s unlikely. A week ago, when he tried to reclaim the port’s usage rights, he was impeached by those old geezers and is now under house arrest at Zeus Apartments.”

Moore had no idea why Wen Xin wanted him here. It turned out she suspected Alfredo was involved.

“It’s not wrong. I don’t know if he’s really under house arrest, but I’m certain he knows where Mu Chengxi is. I need to see him and make him take me to Mu Chengxi.”

Wen Xin was convinced this was the quickest way. Once she had Alfredo, everything would be clear. Guessing was just wasting time.

Moore looked at Wen Xin’s stubborn face and sighed helplessly. “Wait here. I’ll deal with the guards first. Once it’s clear, you can go in. We must avoid alerting anyone.”

“If Alfredo knows something, we must be cautious to prevent them from moving him.”

Moore was meticulous, knowing the cunning nature of those old foxes. He didn’t want to lose the lead they had finally found.

“I’ll handle it. I’ve already jammed the network around here to ensure no surveillance. I can take care of the guards.”

Wen Xin thought Moore and his men would attract too much attention. She took out a few silver needles from her pocket, her eyes resolute as she walked toward Zeus Apartments.

Moore wanted to stop her, but Wen Xin moved too fast, leaving him no chance.

A few minutes later, Chu Yunxuan’s phone vibrated, showing a message from Wen Xin: “Done.”

Chu Yunxuan smiled and told Moore, “We can go now. She’s taken care of everyone.”

Moore’s men were stunned. They had planned to support her, but it seemed unnecessary now. They couldn’t believe a woman could handle this so quickly, even if she used her charms.

As they reached Zeus Apartments and saw the guards lying on the ground, their eyes were filled with shock. Who would have thought a young girl could silently do this? She was not just any girl but someone they should never mess with.

Wen Xin led Chu Yunxuan, Wales, Moore, and a few others into the elevator. The rest stayed outside to manage the situation.

Inside the elevator, Moore glanced at the camera and raised an eyebrow. “Alfredo should know you’re here by now.”

“It doesn’t matter if he knows. If he’s involved, he’ll face my wrath.”

As Wen Xin finished speaking, the elevator doors opened. Holding her silver needles, she led the way.

A guard patrolling inside the building noticed them and sensed something was wrong. Before he could react, Wen Xin threw a needle at him, and he collapsed, motionless.

Seeing this, everyone except Chu Yunxuan was in awe. Chu Yunxuan remained calm, having seen such scenes before.

They walked silently to Alfredo’s door. Wen Xin covered the camera with one hand and rang the doorbell with the other.

The sound of the door unlocking came from inside. As soon as it opened, Wen Xin threw a silver needle through the gap, immobilizing the person who answered.

The bald man who opened the door didn’t know what hit him. He stared in shock as Wen Xin entered, unable to believe the young lady was here.

Wen Xin smiled at his stunned expression. “Surprised to see me?”

Alfredo, sitting in his study, heard the familiar voice and thought he was hallucinating. He shook his head, thinking he missed Wen Xin too much.

“Busy, huh?” Wen Xin stood before him, holding a large black gun, its barrel pressed against Alfredo’s forehead.

Alfredo looked up in shock, seeing Wen Xin aiming the gun at him. He couldn’t believe she had made it into the Independent State without a sound.

“I don’t have time to waste. Tell me where Mu Chengxi is. If you give me his whereabouts, I’ll overlook your involvement.”

Wen Xin’s cold gaze pierced Alfredo. Her indifference stung him, realizing how unimportant he was to her.

“When I called you, did you already know Mu Chengxi was taken to the Independent State? You came here for him? You’re willing to abandon your principles and come to this hated place for him? Is he that important to you?”

Alfredo’s voice was hoarse, struggling to contain his emotions.

“Yes. I’ll give up everything for him, even if it means coming to this detested place.”

“Fine. Marry me, and I’ll…”

A gunshot rang out. Alfredo looked down at his bleeding shoulder, then back at Wen Xin.
