Chapter 113 Unreserved
"What are you doing?"
"Shouldn't we be going to Xia Qing Group to look for things now?"
Xia Qingxin was even more puzzled.
In such an anxious moment, Xia Qingxin's angle of thinking had slowed down significantly.
Thus, for a moment, she couldn't understand what Wang Ye was aiming to do now.
"Just follow me!"
Wang Ye drove to the office building where Xia Qingxin worked, got out of the car, and turned on his phone's flashlight to inspect the ground.
In Wang Ye's eyes, the ground, which had no dust, now appeared to have a layer of faint footprints, seemingly three-dimensional.
From top to bottom, the higher footprints were clearer, while the lower ones faded.
"The person came down from here."
Wang Ye spoke, "My master taught me on the mountain how to judge the approximate time of a person's departure based on their footprints."
"Depending on the wind strength, the footprints will become fainter over time; and judging from the topmost footprints, the owner of these prints left about thirty minutes ago."
Wang Ye looked at Xia Qingxin, "So, did the person leave thirty minutes ago?"
Xia Qingxin recalled the call she had received from her secretary exactly thirty minutes earlier. Surprised, she glanced at Wang Ye and nodded, "Yes, exactly thirty minutes ago!"
Xia Qingxin looked at her junior brother, her eyes filled with joy but also a touch of unfamiliarity.
She didn't know when her junior brother had grown up so quickly.
In the past, when they were around their junior brother, they knew exactly what he was capable of, but now, she realized that viewing Wang Ye was like peering through a mist.
Because there was simply no way of discerning what kind of capabilities Wang Ye possessed now.
In any aspect.
Her junior brother had some undisclosed skills and strengths.
However.
No matter what realm her junior brother had reached in terms of his abilities, which made her unable to see clearly, his intentions toward them were crystal clear.
Without any reservation.
"So, what should we do next?" Wang Ye could determine the time of departure just from the ground where she couldn't see any footprints; Xia Qingxin now fully believed in Wang Ye's capabilities.
Wang Ye would certainly handle this issue better than she could.
"The documents are missing; if your secretary wasn't lying, and he saw the person from the moment they entered, and then they fled, it means that the person was carrying something."
"If that's the case, then all I need to do next is catch up with this guy and resolve it."
"Thus, retrieving our belongings."
Wang Ye was making plans, albeit the clues Wang Ye had present were all acquired from Xia Qingxin's accounts and from a seemingly unremarkable ground.
But Wang Ye seemed to already know quite a lot, while Xia Qingxin just felt confused, following along with Wang Ye's thought process.
Normally, in front of others, Xia Qingxin was a woman capable of managing a multi-billion dollar conglomerate, but here with Wang Ye, she seemed more like someone who knew nothing.
She could only follow Wang Ye's line of thought.
"Senior sister, you go to the office and wait for me, for now, all you need to do is wait for my good news," Wang Ye said.
Upon hearing Wang Ye's words, Xia Qingxin felt reassured and nodded, "Okay!"
"Just..."
Xia Qingxin looked at Wang Ye, her face showing a troubled expression, "Do you know which direction we should chase next?"
Although there was only one path, it split into two directions, and beyond those two, there were numerous others needing determination.
Wang Ye chose the wrong direction.
What followed was all in vain.
"Naturally."
Wang Ye confidently nodded. The clean ground, in Wang Ye's eyes, bore thousands upon thousands of footprints. Among them, the footprint at the very top continued forward and turned to the right.
"No matter what your purpose is, daring to target my sister means you should prepare to be dealt with by me!"
A fierce determination flashed in Wang Ye's eyes as he moved swiftly and as sharply as lightning, heading straight ahead.
Under the night sky.
Wang Ye's figure darted through the streets, leaving only a blurred trace under each surveillance camera.
In fact, based on the images from the cameras, it was impossible to tell whether it was a person or an animal.
After all, Wang Ye was moving too fast for the cameras to capture his figure accurately.
Even when Wang Ye passed by some people, they didn't notice him; they only felt a gust of wind.
As he moved rapidly, Wang Ye observed the clean ground.
To the discerning Wang Ye, the clean ground was not clean at all. It was covered with layer upon layer of footprints, making the flat ground seem almost three-dimensional.
And the uppermost layer of footprints continued in one direction.
Wang Ye followed the footsteps, moving continuously.
...
He Lei's villa.
A few people were still gathered together.
Seeing the message on his phone, He Lei, exhilarated, slapped his thigh and laughed heartily, "It's done! It's done!"
Upon hearing He Lei's words, Wu Bufeng, Zhou Tianhao, and Mr. Lu immediately turned to look at him, their eyes also filled with joy.
Done?
Since they had planned to deal with Wang Ye, they had never heard the words "It's done."
Now, just the phrase "It's done" from He Lei's mouth was enough to make them smile broadly, clearly delighted.
"Everything in Xia Qingxin's office safe at Xia Qing Group has been stolen by our people."
"Next, we only need to use the items from Xia Qingxin's office to cause the Xia Qing Group to go bankrupt soon!"
Everyone present knew what was in the office safe.
It involved assets worth tens and hundreds of billions.
The disappearance of these items from a corporate group could have very severe consequences.
Once they fall into the hands of someone with intentions, that person could use this information to do a lot of things.
Thus, upon hearing He Lei's words, a smile emerged on the faces of Zhou Tianhao, Wu Bufeng, and Mr. Lu.
"However..."
Zhou Tianhao started with some hesitation, "What if Wang Ye follows that person and comes all the way here?"
Zhou Tianhao asked this question.
The smiles on the faces of Mr. Lu and Wu Bufeng also faded, their expressions showing some apprehension.
Indeed.
What if Wang Ye comes here?
