Chapter 1278 - A Portrait of the Behind-The-Scenes Boss



Chapter 1278: A Portrait of the Behind-The-Scenes Boss

“No…” Tian Long thought carefully, but finally shook his head and said, “I haven’t seen him for a while. His business and mine are in different directions. We usually don’t have any business contacts. Even when I see him, it will only be at a party…”

Yang Ming listened to Tian Long’s words, and it made sense. Indeed, there were no dealings between their business, so it was reasonable to have no intersections. Yang Ming intended to investigate this President Hua after the matter had subsided.

I really did not pay attention to him before. Now it seems that he played a role in a series of events.

“It turns out that this person seems to have some connection with the behind-the-scenes boss,” Yang Ming nodded and said.

“Yeah… but this time, my plan has failed, and I have to go to Africa with you. I don’t know if the behind-the-scenes boss will punish me…” Tian Long said with worry when talking about the behind-the-scenes boss. “Especially now, the Kung Fu on my body is also broken; even the ability to protect myself is lost…”

“Let me deal with the behind-the-scenes boss; you don’t have to worry about it. He has a lot of people under him, so he won’t trouble you, and he doesn’t have the time to do it!” Yang Ming laughed and said after listening to him. “This is my old rival. Especially if you are now a person around me, he does not need to take the risk to trouble you!”

Seeing that Yang Ming was remarkably calm when he mentioned the behind-the-scenes boss, it seemed that he didn’t take this person seriously, so Tian Long also put down his concerns. In fact, he was still very concerned about this behind-the-scenes boss at first. However, it’s been a long time, and the behind-the-scenes boss didn’t need to play these tricks on him. He couldn’t do anything to Yang Ming. Including the jewelry exhibition, Yang Ming tricked the behind-the-scenes boss instead. Yang Ming was the one who got the most benefit out of it.

Therefore, Yang Ming would naturally not be afraid of the behind-the-scenes boss. If Yang Ming feared his enemy before fighting face-to-face, then it would be self-defeating. Although Yang Ming could despise his enemy, he didn’t intend to despise the behind-the-scenes boss.

Judging from his peculiarity, this guy was also talented! However, it was very likely that Huang Youcai offered more ideas as a villainous adviser.

Yang Ming knew about Huang Youcai. His mind was full of evil ideas. If he joined the behind-the-scenes boss, he would definitely be able to show his wicked personality.

“Good!” Tian Long nodded as he was relieved. Since Yang Ming spoke confidently, it meant that the behind-the-scenes boss really wouldn’t trouble him.

“On Africa’s side, they are all my trusted aids. You and Uncle Sun don’t have to worry about their loyalty; you two can just focus on managing the island well.” Yang Ming said, “Of course, if you are not afraid of death, you can also do what you did before.”

Although Yang Ming had forgiven Tian Long, he must temper justice with mercy. His words still needed to warn Tian Long in advance.

Tian Long looked stern, and he quickly said, “Do not worry, Yang Ming. I will not! I will behave myself and do my task well.”

“I hope so…” Yang Ming waved and gestured to Tian Long. “Let’s go out. Follow me to sketch a portrait in the police station.”

Sun Hongjun and Sun San couldn’t go to the police station with Yang Ming. It was meaningless for them to go. What’s more, there were still many messes to deal within the company. These messes were all left by Tian Long. Tian Long was naturally embarrassed by the mess he made.

“Brother Jun… about the company’s side, I really made a mess for you…” After Tian Long came out, he saw that Sun Hongjun and Sun San were discussing the company’s aftermath, and he quickly apologized.

“It’s fine. It happens that I need to reform the company. It is not a bad thing!” Sun Hongjun waved his hand.

“Right, Uncle Sun, for the company’s business, you can find Wang Renping to help you,” said Yang Ming.

“Wang Renping?” Sun Hongjun’s face suddenly changed. If it weren’t because he trusted Wang Renping, he wouldn’t be under house arrest.

When Yang Ming saw Sun Hongjun’s face, he knew what Sun Hongjun was thinking, so he smiled and said, “He belongs to me now; he can be trusted completely.”

“Okay, if that’s the case, then there is no problem!” Sun Hongjun listened to Yang Ming’s words, and he knew that Yang Ming had already tamed Wang Renping.

However, Sun Jie looked at Yang Ming with an enigmatic smile. Yang Ming was a bit confused, but he immediately understood what Sun Jie was smiling about. His face suddenly turned black, and he looked awkward. Sun Jie must have gotten the wrong meaning of his sentence.

So, the people in the room were divided into two groups. Sun Hongjun and Sun San went to the company to handle matters, and Yang Ming, Sun Jie, and Tian Long went to the police station. Zhang Jinguo saw that the trouble was over, and he was a little anxious. He was not afraid of what others would know. He quickly stopped Yang Ming before Yang Ming left. “Mr. Yang… the antidote…”

Yang Ming saw that there was nothing to do in the junkyard, so it didn’t matter if Zhang Jinguo was here, so he said, “You go to the company with Uncle Sun and help Wang Renping to deal with matters. The antidote that I gave you yesterday will be effective until tomorrow night. Tomorrow afternoon, I will let Wang Renping inform you of my latest decision.”

“Okay, thank you, Mr. Yang!” Zhang Jinguo listened to Yang Ming’s affirmative reply, and he was relieved. Although he couldn’t guarantee that Yang Ming would give them the antidote tomorrow, at least, he would give them the suppressant so that the voodoo wouldn’t kill them.

“Antidote? What antidote?” After walking out the door, Sun Jie asked, puzzled. In fact, Sun Hongjun and Sun San also had some doubts when they were in the house, but because of the presence of Zhang Jinguo, it was inappropriate for them to ask. They would ask when they had the time.

” Hehe , do you think these people will just bow to me due to my overbearing vibe? You are overestimating me!” Yang Ming smiled and said to Sun Jie after getting into the car.

“D*mn…” Sun Jie was unimpressed by Yang Ming’s address of himself; she just glared at him. “Stop talking about nonsense; quickly tell what the hell is that antidote?”

“I gave these people a voodoo pill. If there is no antidote to suppress the voodoo, the voodoo will be effective in thirty hours, and they will die in a terrible way where holes are opened in their intestines and stomach.” As Yang Ming finished, he looked at Tian Long. “Don’t blame your men for betraying you. Whether money is important or life is more important, they are not stupid!”

” Oh ?” Sun Jie’s ability to accept this was quite strong. “Voodoo? You actually used voodoo? I have heard of this thing. Is it the same as the traitor, Zhao Wenhua, of the Ming Dynasty’s Jia Jing period? He seemed to be cursed by this kind of voodoo!”

Yang Ming nodded. “Yes, the method of death is the same.”

Voodoo was actually not a legend; it was also recorded in the history books. In the “Ming History” written by Zhang Tingyu of the Qing Dynasty, there was a detailed explanation: Wenhua was poisoned by voodoo, and he was in a boat. He looked depressed. He put his hand into his stomach, pulled out his intestines, and died.

Zhao Wenhua’s death from voodoo was a tragic scene. He used his own hands to dig into his stomach, and his intestines were all over the floor.

Tian Long listened to their conversation, and there was a burst of cold sweat on his head. His heart was secretly stunned. What kind of opponent is this? This is too strong. He even knows voodoo. No wonder I lost. Yang Ming will definitely give me some voodoo before I depart to Africa. Thinking of this, Tian Long was even more afraid of having any second thoughts.

“I didn’t expect you to know these things.” As Sun Jie finished, she suddenly frowned and said, “No way. Are you Han Chinese? Voodoo usually won’t be taught to outsiders; only the Miao people are proficient in these. Do you know Miao people?”

” En …” Yang Ming sighed slightly and thought of Lan Ling. He didn’t know what happened to her. Although they occasionally exchanged text messages, most of them were simply greetings. They wouldn’t tell each other about their recent status, so Yang Ming was very worried about Lan Ling.

Seeing that Yang Ming seemed to be reluctant to mention these things, Sun Jie stopped asking sensibly.

” Oh , yeah, I met Sister Yang Xin when I came yesterday,” Yang Ming changed the subject initiatively. “She said that you contacted her previously before you came back to Donghai, saying that you will look for her. However, she is a little anxious after waiting for a few days without getting any news.”

” Aiya !” Sun Jie slapped her head. “If you didn’t mention it, I really forgot about this matter. I indeed called her before I came back! What did you say?”

“I naturally didn’t tell the truth to her; I just said that you have some trouble lately, so you are rather busy. I invited her to dinner today. Let’s go together in the evening,” said Yang Ming.

Sun Jie naturally accepted it. She didn’t want to tell Yang Xin about these things. After all, this was not a glorious thing. She would just pretend as though nothing happened.

The car drove into the Donghai police station because Captain Yang gave a pass to Yang Ming, and the guard let them go without checking. With this scene, Sun Jie also glanced at Yang Ming secretly.

In fact, women tended to be like this. Before, she felt that Yang Ming had not achieved enough to be her ideal man. Therefore, she always felt that Yang Ming had many shortcomings, but once she recognized him from the heart, she only saw Yang Ming’s strong points.

They went upstairs and found Captain Yang, and Captain Yang already found a sketch specialist.

“Mr. Yang, I have already found the expert. This is Specialist Wang!” Captain Yang introduced a middle-aged man to Yang Ming, then he said, “This is Yang Ming, Mr. Yang. He is sent by the higher levels to be in charge of a case. Please try to cooperate with him!”

Captain Yang naturally wouldn’t say Yang Ming’s real identity. He didn’t know if what Yang Ming wanted to do was confidential, so he didn’t dare to talk indiscriminately. He just introduced Yang Ming’s identity vaguely.

“Thank you very much, Captain Yang!” Yang Ming naturally didn’t say that he was actually doing a private matter. He turned his head and said, “Specialist Wang, thank you for the trouble!”

“No problem, Mr. Yang. I will try my best!” Although Captain Yang did not say it, Specialist Wang was also a person inside the system. He also guessed Yang Ming’s identity. He should be personnel sent by the Security Bureau, so he didn’t ask much.

“Then, let’s get started!” Yang Ming quickly entered the topic, letting Tian Long describe the features of the behind-the-scenes boss.

This Specialist Wang was indeed very professional. According to Tian Long’s description, he quickly entered the zone and began to sketch on paper with a sketch pencil. Yang Ming did not bother them. He exited the room with Sun Jie and waited in the lounge.

“How do you know Captain Yang?” Sun Jie was very baffled. “Besides, he said that you are sent by above to investigate a case? What the hell is going on? Are you lying to him that you are a senior official?”

“What are you thinking?!” Yang Ming was speechless listening to Sun Jie’s words. “Do you think the title of criminal police is just a name? Will he believe in the identity that I simply fabricated?”

Sun Jie agreed with it too. If he were so easily deceived, then wouldn’t this world be messed up? However, she was still very curious. “Then, what was that?”

“Isn’t it because of this?” Yang Ming smiled bitterly and handed an ID to Sun Jie.

Sun Jie was a little surprised to see Yang Ming’s ID. She looked at it, and she was taken aback suddenly. “You?”

“If not me, then who?” Yang Ming threw up his hands and said, “Although I work for them, it is still convenient to do my matters sometimes.”

“This is true.” Sun Jie’s ability to accept was relatively fast. She returned the ID to Yang Ming. “Everything is two-way; I did not expect you to have such an identity!”

“Actually, I told you before that I am not as simple as you thought I am; it’s just that you didn’t believe it.” Yang Ming shrugged. “Do you believe now?”

“Who told you to say it ambiguously?” Sun Jie glared at Yang Ming.

Yang Ming gave a hollow laugh. Didn’t I just join it recently? How could I tell you previously?

“Okay, tell me about your island in Africa. I thought I knew you very well, but now, it seems that I don’t know anything!” Sun Jie really had this feeling. When she thought she completely understood Yang Ming, she only found out that she actually didn’t know anything about him at all.

“This is complicated to explain…” Yang Ming naturally couldn’t tell everything to Sun Jie. He couldn’t mention anything about assassins at least, so he told the truth with a little lie to Sun Jie. Sun Jie had no doubts, but she enjoyed listening to it.

“When are you going to bring me there?” Sun Jie listened to Yang Ming’s narration, and she was very eager to go there.

“There will be opportunities; we will all go there when it is time,” said Yang Ming.

“We? Who else?” Sun Jie was certainly not stupid; she immediately heard the hidden meaning in Yang Ming’s words.

“You, Mengyan, and the others…” Yang Ming said, “When we get there, that will be my territory. At that time, we can just hold a group wedding…”

“Your thoughts are really wonderful. You even thought of future matters?” Sun Jie was so angry and amused. She thought that Yang Ming was really beyond help; he could actually consider these things.

On Tian Long’s side, the behind-the-scenes boss’ portrait was done with Specialist Wang’s help. Specialist Wang modified it on the computer, then Tian Long confirmed the final picture. This was exactly the same as the behind-the-scenes boss in his impression!

After Tian Long looked at it, he praised that Specialist Wang’s skills were proficient! Specialist Wang just waved his hand humbly.

Seeing Tian Long and Specialist Wang come out, Yang Ming and Sun Jie also stopped talking. Yang Ming stood up and asked, “Uncle Tian, Specialist Wang, how is it?”

“It’s already out!” Specialist Wang smiled and pointed to the portrait in Tian Long’s hand.

“This Specialist Wang is really great; the portrait is almost exactly the same as my impression!” Tian Long quickly handed the portrait in his hand to Yang Ming, praising.

” Oh ?” Yang Ming took the picture and held it in his hand. After a glance, Yang Ming was taken aback. Isn’t this person… the one that was photographed by Victoria? The person who Alice met?

It was the man with Huang Youcai! This person is actually the behind-the-scenes boss? Yang Ming felt incredulous. The person who initially looked very mysterious suddenly appeared in front of him; he found out that it was actually this person. Then there would be a feeling of disappointment all of sudden.

Although Yang Ming had not seen this person before, Yang Ming had a very familiar feeling. However, this person’s appearance was really very ordinary. There were no special features; it was a kind of face that would be forgotten easily. If Yang Ming didn’t have a strong impression of him, he wouldn’t recognize this face.

Now that he confirmed that the behind-the-scenes boss was the person who met with Alice, Yang Ming felt a lot more at ease. Although he hadn’t officially fought with this person, he, at least, knew who his opponent was.

Not like before, he wasn’t sure whether these behind-the-scenes bosses were the same person.

“Thank you! Specialist Wang!” Yang Ming was very grateful that the behind-the-scenes boss’ portrait could be so expressive.

“You’re welcome. If Mr. Yang doesn’t have any other requests, then I will go do my work first.” Specialist Wang smiled and said.

“Specialist Wang, let’s go out for a meal later as my thanks!” Yang Ming said graciously.

“No need!” Specialist Wang waved his hand. “This is what I should do! I still have other matters, so I’ll pass on the meal.”

Seeing Specialist Wang say this, Yang Ming did not insist. Maybe Specialist Wang was telling the truth. He must have a lot of work to do with his capability. How could he have time to socialize?

“Mr. Yang, how is it? Is the portrait done? Do you need any help?” Captain Yang also received his assistant’s notice and walked in.

Yang Ming hesitated a bit. Although it seemed that it wouldn’t be much helpful doing this, he still wanted to try it out. “Captain Yang, I have this portrait here. Can you help me to search it in the database to see if there is any information about this person?”

” Oh ? Okay!” Captain Yang took the portrait that Yang Ming handed him and nodded, then he said, “I can use the soft copy of the portrait!”

The soft copy portrait that Specialist Wang made can be entered directly into the database for comparison with the appearance identification system. Therefore, after Captain Yang copied it, he informed his man to do this.
