Bai Xi's eyes slightly lifted, her speed increasing by another step.
Chu Xiao watched in disbelief as Bai Xi vanished without a trace, as if a phantom had disappeared.
This girl… she was truly mysterious!
When Bai Xi arrived at the Chu family villa, she saw only a blood-covered corpse, while the Chu family members were in a panic, handling the body.
She took a cursory glance and saw four distinct knife wounds on the corpse.
The two wounds on the abdomen were the most severe, bleeding profusely, suggesting death was due to excessive blood loss.
The fact that the victim managed to reach this place indicated that the incident occurred not too far from here.
She followed the bloodstains outwards, walking for about two thousand meters, and spotted a wrecked Lamborghini. It was a crimson Lamborghini, the same one she had seen at the hotel a while ago, likely Han Rui's car.
The car was severely damaged. Although the airbags had deployed, the driver's cabin had deformed severely, and the driver was probably killed instantly from the impact.
There were also shards of glass and a large amount of blood on the back seat.
She didn't know if it belonged to Han Rui or the bodyguard who had died at the entrance of the Chu family villa earlier.
However, Han Rui was not in the car at this moment. It seemed the bodyguard who died at the villa entrance hadn't lied; Han Rui had been kidnapped.
Since it was a kidnapping, his life wouldn't be taken immediately, giving them time to rescue him. After all, someone like Han Rui, who was beneficial to Shangyang and beneficial to China, shouldn't die. Moreover, she hadn't finished investigating what she needed to.
The next second, she immediately activated the butterfly-shaped earring she wore, and Xuan Feng's voice came through, "War God, do you have any orders?"
Bai Xi said calmly, "Han Rui was kidnapped on his way to the Chu family. Help me investigate through the Dark Division's internal network to find out where he is now."
M City was a one-star city, so the internal network investigation wasn't as clear.
But Shangyang was different. Shangyang was a three-star city with more comprehensive infrastructure, and the Dark Division's internal network could investigate a wider area.
Furthermore, this was near the Chu family villa, the affluent district of Shangyang. For the safety of its residents, there were numerous cameras installed along the roads.
The investigation should be faster.
Xuan Feng immediately replied, "Understood. Please wait a moment, War God."
Bai Xi stood calmly, listening to the sounds of rapid typing from the other end. In less than three minutes, Xuan Feng's voice came through, "War God, we have found Han Rui's current location. Shall I send it to you?"
Bai Xi nodded, "Send it over."
The next second, the blue butterfly-shaped earring emitted a light, projecting a map. On the map, there was a red cross marking the location, presumably where Han Rui was.
"Alright, I got it."
Xuan Feng immediately asked, "Do you need me to send people there now?"
Bai Xi said calmly, "Send people to monitor discreetly. If Han Rui's life is in danger, rescue him immediately. If not, wait."
Han Rui had too many suspicious points. Monitoring him discreetly might yield more information.
Xuan Feng: "Yes!"
Bai Xi hung up the call and was about to raise her hand to summon her subordinates hidden nearby to help her get a car to Han Rui's kidnapping location when a black luxury sports car pulled up beside her.
The person inside was none other than Chu Xiao. Chu Xiao rolled down the car window and said to Bai Xi, "Miss Bai, are you going to save Han Rui? Let me give you a ride!"
Bai Xi glanced lightly at the car, then at the speedometer, and said calmly, "Alright, but… I'll drive."
The speedometer showed 380, and the car was quite good. Her car was still in M City, and she hadn't prepared a car after arriving in Shangyang. Wasting time wouldn't be good, and having a car like this for transport would be fun.
Chu Xiao was taken aback. Although he felt a strong sense of confusion, he smiled slightly and said, "Okay."
After that, he signaled the driver to get out.
Bai Xi got into the car and glanced at Chu Xiao, saying, "Aren't you getting out?"
Chu Xiao replied, "Han Rui and I are considered friends. I always treated him as my brother-in-law. Now that something has happened, and it happened on the way to my house, I naturally cannot stand by. Since Miss Bai is going to save Han Rui, I also want to do my part."
In this one statement, there were three key points.
One, he, Chu Xiao, was committed.
Two, he, Chu Xiao, was loyal, righteous, and responsible.
Three, there was an unclear, ambiguous relationship between Han Rui and his sister, so Bai Xi didn't need to consider him.
Bai Xi was indifferent to his thoughts and had no interest. "Then please buckle up and hold onto the handrail."
Upon hearing this, Chu Xiao was stunned. Before he could react, he felt an intense push from behind, causing his heart to clench violently, forcing him to quickly buckle his seatbelt and grip the handrail in terror.
This speed… it was flying!
In Shangyang City, in an abandoned factory.
Han Rui was tied up, thrown on the ground, spitting a mouthful of blood.
Beside him were a group of people dressed sloppily, looking like street thugs. In the center stood a person, none other than Han Zheng.
Han Zheng looked at Han Rui lying on the ground, his face filled with a mad smile, "Han Rui, didn't expect this, did you?"
Han Rui moved his lips slightly, spitting out the blood in his mouth, "Why wouldn't I expect this? Besides you, this dog, who else in this world dislikes me?"
At these words, Han Zheng's face darkened. He strode forward and kicked Han Rui fiercely in the stomach.
Han Rui gritted his teeth, enduring the kick, but his nonchalant smile remained unchanged.
Seeing him like this, Han Zheng became even more enraged. He kicked Han Rui numerous times until he coughed up another large mouthful of blood before stopping, "It's fine, curse me, curse me all you want. The harder you curse, the more pain you'll endure. I like it."
He hated Han Rui, he had hated him since childhood.
He was a child without a father, yet he received endless favoritism from his grandfather.
His grandfather had passed the position of family head to Han Rui's father, but unfortunately, Han Rui's father had died when Han Rui was very young. According to tradition, the position of family head should have gone to his father, but his grandfather, because of Han Rui, had once again taken up the mantle of family head himself and held on.
He said he was looking after the Han family and was thinking for the Han family, but in reality, he was just waiting for Han Rui to grow up.
He also said that he and Han Rui would compete fairly, but in the end, he had never considered him!
Over the years, he had worked tirelessly to earn money for the Han family, but his grandfather never seemed to notice.
And Han Rui always did things that were pointless. The medicine developed by his team could have made the Han family a fortune, but Han Rui insisted on improving his medicine.
The improved medicine indeed had lower costs and fewer side effects, but what benefit did it bring to the Han family? How could this traitorous person be considered more suitable to be the head of the Han family?
This time, he had even sent his father to the Security Bureau, reclaimed many of his rights in the Han family's pharmaceutical factory, and the underground thugs he kept outside had also been greatly impacted. Han Rui had cleared his name, and the elders of the Han family who had once surrounded him began to defect to Han Rui.
He knew he was finished, but he was unwilling to accept it!
Since his grandfather insisted on favoritism, then he would make his grandfather have only him as a grandson. Then… the Han family could only be inherited by him.
