Chapter 1979: The Time to Act

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“To be able to become the grand wardens of the Freemasons, not only do they have to be smart, but they’re also very smart. It’s not easy to shirk responsibility.”

Fang Dezong rubbed his temples and said indifferently,

“However, the consequences of this matter are not as serious as we thought. I hope we can find a remedy later.”

Fang Dezong knew about Hongmen’s situation. If it only concerned him, he wouldn’t care so much.

But the problem was that he wanted to help his son rise to the top and become the new leader of Hongmen. That was why he was so worried.

“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. Let’s go back.”

“Okay.”

Fang Dezong took out his phone and called Fang Shihong, but no one picked up.

“This rascal, who knows where he went to fool around again.”

Among the younger generation, Fang Shihong could be considered outstanding, but in Fang Dezong’s eyes, he was not worthy enough to even be mentioned. He needed to continue training.

“Perhaps there have been too many things happening recently and Young Master is a little tired.” Dai Yongxiang smiled and said.

“I heard that there will be a three-way boxing match at Wanli Hotel tonight. The winner would get a piece of land in Shallow Water Bay. Young Master should be there.”

Fang Dezong looked at his watch. “He should be back by now. He’s probably fooling around somewhere else.” fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

“Do you need me to contact the people around the young master?”

“No need. Let him call me back once he sees his phone,” Fang Dezong said tiredly. “Let me be alone for a while.”

“Got it.”

Lin Yi drove the car to an abandoned dock surrounded by tall reeds.

It was pitch-black here. There was only the endless sound of seawater washing against the reefs on the coast.

Not to mention humans, even ghosts would not come to such a place.

After driving the car to the place, Lin Yi dragged Shen Wenli’s body and threw her into the sea.

As for Fang Shihong, he was still in the car.

This was a huge gift for Fang Dezong, so Lin Yi had to keep it properly.

After dealing with Shen Wenli, Lin Yi took out the sack he had just bought and placed Fang Shihong’s corpse inside.

After everything was settled, he rolled down the car window.

The sea breeze blew in from outside, reducing the smell of blood in the car.

Ring ring ring!

Not long after, the phone in the passenger seat rang. It was a call from Fang Dezong.

Lin Yi immediately became nervous. He looked at his buzzing phone and didn’t move.

The phone rang for half a minute before it was automatically hung up. After that, it never rang again.

It was abnormally quiet in the car, and Lin Yi was silent.

This was not a good sign. If there was no news of Fang Shihong for a long time, Fang Dezong would definitely notice.

Lin Yi made some estimations. If he couldn’t take care of Fang Dezong before midnight tonight, this opportunity would be wasted. He had to continue waiting for the right time to make a move.

The rest would depend on the speed of Team 1.

Ring ring ring!

About an hour later, Lin Yi received a message from Yu Siying.

“Boss, we saw Fang Dezong’s car. The place you’re talking about should be his secret residence.”

“How’s your situation? You haven’t been discovered, right?”

“We used four cars to spread out, ensuring we didn’t expose our movements,” Yu Siying said.

“But the security around the villa is very tight. We couldn’t get closer than 500 meters.”

“Continue observing and get a detailed assessment of the security forces around the area.”

“Understood.”

After hanging up, Lin Yi didn’t waste any time. He drove towards the villa in the southern district of Victor Mountain.

The journey took about an hour.

On the way, Lin Yi received updates from Yu Siying.

The seven-person team had thoroughly scouted the villa’s security.

Through binoculars, they observed that there were approximately 32 bodyguards around the villa.

Among them, there was one D-class bodyguard, two E-class bodyguards, and the remaining 29 were well-trained regular guards, possibly armed with firearms.

With this information, Lin Yi reassessed Fang Dezhong’s residence.

For D-class and E-class individuals to be relegated to mere gatekeepers, Hongmen’s capabilities were indeed impressive.

Additionally, Lin Yi received several calls on his way, but they weren’t made to his phone.

Both Fang Shihong’s and Shen Wenli’s phones rang multiple times.

However, he couldn’t answer either of them.

This made Lin Yi increasingly anxious.

The more calls that went unanswered, the more suspicious the other side would become.

If they didn’t act quickly, it would be highly disadvantageous for them.

Soon, Lin Yi increased his speed and drove to the foot of Victor Mountain, where he met up with Yu Siying and the team.

Though the car was a seven-seater, fitting eight people inside wasn’t difficult.

Looking at the villa not far away, Lin Yi noticed Fang Dezhong’s strategic choice of location.

The villa was situated on a high point with no obstructions around it. Besides the low grass and artificial streams, there was nothing to block the view.

This provided a perfect vantage point from the villa.

Standing on it, you could see everything below. No wonder Yu Siying said that if they got within 500 meters, they would be at risk of being discovered.

It was true.

“Boss, Fang Dezhong is in the villa at the top,” Yu Siying said.

“But all the lights are on, which isn’t favorable for our operation. Waiting until the lights are off might increase our chances of sneaking in.”

“During such a critical time, sneaking in will be dangerous no matter when we do it. These people are professionals and unlikely to make such mistakes,” Lin Yi said.

“Moreover, I’ve already killed Fang Shihong. If they can’t reach their son for a long time, they’ll get suspicious. If we don’t deal with him by early morning, Fang Dezhong will get suspicious, which will hinder our operation. We must act quickly.”

“Brother Lin, are you planning to drive in?” Xiao Bing asked.

Lin Yi nodded. “This is Fang Shihong’s car; the bodyguards won’t dare to stop it. When I get out, stay in the car. If anything goes wrong, take out the bodyguards outside as quickly as possible. Leave the villa to me.”

Everyone nodded, understanding this was the most reasonable plan for now.

Ring, ring, ring!

At that moment, Fang Shihong’s phone rang again.

This made everyone in the car tense up.

After that call ended, Shen Wenli’s phone rang twice.

The continuous ringing of the phones made the team’s anxiety grow.

The frequent calls suggested that the other side might have sensed something was wrong.

Just as the team leader had said, if they didn’t take action soon, they might really miss this opportunity.
