Chapter 64: Undercurrents Surge

  Lin Fan has been killed for several days, and the entire Huaxing Society seems to be calm on the surface, but the internal atmosphere is getting more and more tense. Tang Feng, Guan Zhiyong, Xu Qiang, Wang Sheng, Ghost Face, Mengzi and other high-ranking officials are all secretly on guard, ready to respond to a sudden attack at any time.

  The mayor of Lin sat on the sofa, watching his wife cry uncontrollably. He was also frowning, as their son had not returned for several days. In the past, this wouldn't have been a big deal, as that little scamp often didn't come home for several days until he ran out of money and came back to behave for a few days. But what was strange was that when he tried calling his son these past few days, the calls couldn't get through - something that had never happened before. This afternoon, someone told him that there were rumors outside that his precious son had been killed by the Huaxing gang. He could no longer sit still and hurriedly returned home to tell his wife about it, while also secretly sending a trusted aide to investigate.

  "Stop crying, what are you crying about? Hasn't anything been confirmed yet?" He was already annoyed and seeing his wife continuously crying made him even more furious, so he yelled at her.

  Lin Fang's mother, Wang Xing Group, stood up and pointed at Mayor Lin, shouting: "It's all you! You only care about your career every day and never care about your son. If something really happens to my son this time, I won't let you off!"

  Mayor Lin was just about to speak when his secretary walked in from outside.

  Upon seeing the secretary, Mayor Lin and Lu Mei hastily walked forward and asked: "How is it? Are those people outside talking nonsense?"

  The secretary pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and didn't dare look at either of them, he didn't know what to say.

  Seeing the secretary's expression, Mayor Lin and Lu Mei had a bad premonition. Grabbing the secretary's arm, Mayor Lin roared: "Speak up! What happened to Fang'er?"

  The secretary looked up, took a deep breath and said: "Mayor Lin, according to the investigation, Lin Fan was kidnapped by the Huaxing Society's young lady a few days ago. The Huaxing Society took Lin Fan away in a hotel, and his whereabouts are still unknown. It is possible that he has been harmed."

  "What!!!" Mayor Lin clenched his fists, threw back his head and let out a loud roar. The last shred of hope in his heart was shattered, and with red eyes he bellowed: "Hua Xing Society! How dare you! I'll have all of you buried with my son!!!"

  "No, it won't happen, husband, it won't happen, Fang'er is not going to die, he's still so young." Lu Mei shook her head and took two steps back, muttering to herself. Suddenly she walked forward, grabbed Mayor Lin's arm, and urged anxiously: "Husband, you contact them, hurry up and contact them! They must have kidnapped Fang'er for money, tell them I'll give them as much money as they want, I don't care about anything else, I just want Fang'er back."

  Mayor Lin saw his wife like this, and he was also very uncomfortable in his heart. His son had died, and if his wife went crazy, he really didn't know what to do. He tightly hugged his wife, and Mayor Lin tearfully said: "Wife, wake up! Accept reality! Fang'er is already gone! If they wanted money, they would have called long ago. You can rest assured that I will definitely avenge my son's death, and I will not let them off!"

  The couple hugged each other and cried bitterly, while the secretary on the side also had a sorrowful expression. He was Mayor Lin's confidant, and when his master was in distress, he naturally had to show some emotion, otherwise his future would be at stake.

  By this afternoon, the couple had finally calmed down and began to discuss their plan for revenge! After mustering up his courage, Mayor Lin took out his phone and dialed his father's number.

  At night, all evil begins. The world of wine and song only reveals people's ugly faces at night. Tang Feng walked alone on the street, feeling that something big was about to happen these past few days. He naturally knew this had to do with Lin Fan's death. Paper can't wrap fire forever, let alone when there was a huge commotion to save Fei Fei and many people saw Lin Fan being taken away by the Huaxing Society.

  He let out a sigh, Tang Feng stood at a crossroads watching the people coming and going. Several months ago, he had just arrived in XA, but several months later, he was already standing at the top of XA's underworld. Murder, arson, territorial disputes - these things had never stopped during this period. But now? The Huaxing Society, which he had founded with his own hands, was on the verge of collapse. He had a premonition that Mayor Lin had already found out that Lin Fan had died at the hands of the Huaxing Society.

  The phone rang, Tang Feng looked at the number displayed on it and pressed the connect button.

  "I'm Xu Tian, I've already reported your situation to Old Zhang. He said he'll do his best to help you, but what's worrying is that the Lin family might insist on a fight to the death. After all, they have deep roots in this area, so you should also think of a way out for yourselves."

  "Got it, thank you Uncle Zhang for me." With a simple sentence, Tang Feng hung up his phone.

  Zhongnanhai, inside a small building.

  "Old Zhang, isn't that Lin fellow from Old Zheng's faction?" asked the old man who had played chess with General Zhang last time, sitting in a recliner and sipping fragrant tea.

  Nodding, General Zhang put the teacup on the table and said: "Yes, I heard that the Lin family and Zheng family have a very deep relationship. That Lin guy was able to become the provincial party secretary all thanks to Old Zheng. If he weren't too old, I reckon Old Zheng would still try to find a way to bring him in."

  He smiled and said softly, "Old Zheng? Heh heh, he's too impatient. In recent years, he's been actively pulling in the direct descendants, isn't it all for the big election 2 years later?"

  "What do you mean?" General Zhang frowned and asked.

  "Haha, that's not what I meant. We're all working for the country and the people, those kids too. But what if someone tries to undermine national interests?" The old man looked deeply at General Zhang.

  General Zhang's eyes lit up, and he nodded: "Alright, I'll go to the National Security Bureau later and see if there's any evidence against the Lin family. If they've indeed done something that harms national interests, we must deal with them severely!"

  If the National Security Agency wants to find fault with someone, it's simply too easy. In their daily work, they are crystal clear about the corruption and bribery of local officials, as long as they don't go overboard, generally they turn a blind eye, but if they really want to find trouble, there are plenty of reasons to do so.
