Chapter 126: Seizing the Initiative

  Chapter 126: Seizing the Initiative

  "What did you say?" Chu Yan was somewhat stunned, this little guy's thinking had always been unconventional, but even if Chu Yan had made all the preparations, he hadn't expected Caesar to say such a sentence, with his own mistaken idea, Chu Yan asked again.

  "I'm asking, when are you going to marry Mo's sister? Listen clearly, it's a wedding with Mo's sister!" Caesar still had a serious face, while Vivian standing beside him was smiling at Chu Yan. She was already used to this little devil's antics. Looking at Chu Yan's slightly embarrassed expression, Vivian felt unexpectedly good. People say that the plan for a day depends on the morning, if you can have a good mood in the morning, then the whole day will be very pleasant.

  "Cough, Caesar, why should I marry your sister?" Chu Yan couldn't guess what was going on in Caesar's little brain, but after the awkwardness passed, Chu Yan turned out to be very calm and collected, wanting to know the reason behind Caesar's words.

  "Why don't you marry Mo's sister? You two have been together for two nights, do you want to be a heartless person and not take responsibility for Mo's sister?" Caesar's words became more and more hurtful, while Chu Yan was even more crying with laughter after hearing this reason. This little guy seems to have the habit of peeking at others!

  "What's this 'two nights' business? Where did you hear that term?" Caesar's words left Chu Yan at a loss for how to respond. Should he tell this little kid, "I and your older sister just slept in the same room one night, but nothing happened"? Saying it out loud would be ridiculous - not only would Caesar not believe him, even Chu Yan himself thought it sounded far-fetched. At this moment, Chu Yan was once again defying the ancients: "Liu Xiahui is a total waste in front of me!"

  "What are you talking about, Caesar?" Fortunately, Mo Xiuyao's timely appearance resolved the crisis in front of them. Caesar rarely spoke in front of Mo Xiuyao, and now, with this sensitive topic, he wouldn't dare to say it out loud in her presence.

  "It's okay, Vivian teacher, let's go to school." Turning back, the little guy swung his hand and walked out of the villa with Weiwei An and another woman. As for Mo Xiya, who wanted to continue asking questions, Caesar would never give her a chance.

  "Vivian, Wei Ru, you two take good care of Caesar and be careful on the road." Caesar escaped, Mo Xi Yao didn't investigate further, there was still a biggest eyewitness or one of the parties involved in front of her, wanting to ask clearly about what they were talking about just now, couldn't be simpler.

  "What difficult question did Caesar ask you again?" Mo Xiuyao had to ask Chu Yan because she heard the two words "get married" from Caesar's mouth. The rest of the words were not clear, but they were all related to these two words. If nothing unexpected happens, these two words are likely to be directly related to both Chu Yan and herself.

  "Oh, it's not a big deal, that little guy asked me why I didn't marry you, and said we've already had two nights together, don't call me a scoundrel, want me to take responsibility for you. I'm thinking about how to be responsible for you now." Chu Yan naturally wouldn't hide such things, after all, kids are just kids, no matter how high their IQ is, their EQ still needs to grow bit by bit. The reason for this topic might be something that nobody could have anticipated, and Chu Yan was very clear about this in his heart.

  "Did he really say that?" Mo Xiuyao's face turned red instantly, suppressing the excitement in her heart, and asked with a smile. For some reason, she really wanted to know why Caesar asked this question, although not as direct as Caesar's question, but she also wanted to know what attitude Chu Yan had towards her.

  "That's right." Chu Yan nodded and walked to the dining table, where two breakfasts were already placed. Eating while chatting seemed like a better idea. "You know? I didn't mind Caesar's first question, what I minded was his second question - our two-night stand. Now it seems that I'm at a loss. How about you make up for it in another way?"

  Changing the subject was always Chuyan's strong suit, although Mo Xiuyao was a bit disinterested, but Chuyan's words left her speechless. The things that happened between them were more ridiculous than those portrayed in movies. In the hotel, even when they were embracing each other, both of them were like dry wood and raging fire, yet they didn't do anything romantic. It was the same in Mo Xiuyao's bedroom.

  Once, it might be about being a good person; twice, and I guess it's no longer about being a good person.

  "Alright, I originally planned to go to the car show with a few friends today. With one more person, it'll be even livelier. You can join us." Mo Xiuyao's response was surprisingly straightforward, and it turned out that this little girl had already made plans for today. Chu Yan thought he could get some benefits, but it wasn't easy at all.

  Although Chu Yan did not support Mo Xi Yao's trip to Nanshan City's annual car show, from another perspective, there were only two ways to completely eliminate the hidden danger. One was the most direct and effective method, which was to let the Yishan Group cancel the bounty. This was obviously difficult and almost impossible to accomplish. The other method was to take a risk and wait for an opportunity, Mo Xi Yao would not appear in public, Chu Yan had no way of finding the hidden dark walker behind the scenes. As for the two killers mentioned by Wan Cai Ni, he could only use the same method to solve them.

  "Alright, but before we head out today, there are a few things to prepare in advance. First, dress warmly. Second, use your connections to get me a copy of the surveillance footage from last night within a five-kilometer radius of Silver Palm. Third, I need to make a call to Jenny and ask for some information, so I'll borrow your computer for that. Alright, you eat, I've finished." Chu Yan said as he stood up, having already devoured a cup of milk and a authentic bacon sandwich on the dining table.

  Mo Xi Yao wanted to say something, but found that she had nothing to say. Chu Yan's words didn't give her any room for choice, especially the first one: dress more conservatively, go see the car show by yourself, or go with good friends, how can dressing conservatively be okay? Wouldn't she be laughed at by those good friends of hers?

  Obviously, Mo Xiuyao wouldn't object to other things, but when it came to her own dressing style, which she had always been very particular about, there was absolutely no room for compromise on this point.

  "Long time no see, let's catch up sometime, yeah, I've got a bit of a situation. Last night at the Silver Palm parking lot, I was robbed by a group of thugs. Oh, it's fine, I'm fine, my friend is a martial arts expert, luckily he was there. Yeah, what I mean is, can you get me a copy of the surveillance footage within three blocks of Silver Palm?" Chu Yan said.

  The first thing she would never agree to, but the other two things, she wouldn't hesitate at all. Her best friend, Wan Cai Ni, had already sent her multiple texts telling her to stick with Chu Yan until she returned to their home country. As for the assassin, Mo Xi Yao didn't know much about it, only that the Yi Shan Group had put a 5 million bounty on her head. She hadn't experienced anything like this before in her life, so her fear factor was relatively low.

  "Alright, thank you so much, I'll definitely treat you to dinner another day." Putting down the phone, Mo Xiuyao had completed Chu Yan's task, and as for the rest, she didn't have time to bother with it. Sitting at the dining table, looking at the delicious breakfast in front of her, Mo Xiuyao clapped her hands and started eating quickly.

  Upstairs, Chu Yan had already contacted Wan Cai Ni and obtained the information he wanted. Although it was incomplete, it was absolutely sufficient for Chu Yan's use.

  "Dark walker, Selos, with Jenny around, you're in trouble. Although I don't know your true identity, a name plus a pile of murders related to you is enough for me to find you out in the shortest time."

  Takeshi Kurenai, a Japanese Iga ninja, was promoted to Jonin four years ago. His codename in the assassination world is "Kaie", which means "to lay down one's butcher knife and attain Buddhahood on the spot". However, this Kaie is getting more and more bloodthirsty every day.

  Throat cutter, recently became a killer, no information available, modus operandi and characteristics, cut throat, one knife to kill, belongs to the old school killer style, so far there is no positive useful information, only know his gender is male, Russian, the rest are not clear.

  Looking at the materials sent by Wan Cai Ni, Chu Yan's face became more and more charming. These three people were not acquaintances, but they seemed to have some connection with acquaintances.

  They are not familiar faces, which means their level and prestige in the killer world are not high. Chu Yan has basically grasped their information, so the rest of the things seem to be much simpler. The only thing that worries Chu Yan is that even if he can take care of one person at a time, it's still not a way to eradicate them completely. As long as the bounty is still there, there will be a constant stream of killers taking on this task, and by then, he might not need to do anything else but be a bodyguard every day.

  "Right, there's another issue that needs to be resolved." Chu Yan suddenly thought of something very important in his mind, which was that he wasn't a police officer. Many things were easy to do, but to complete them perfectly wasn't so simple after all.

  Huang Kai, he is the first person Chu Yan thought of, for two reasons. First, among the people he knows, only this one is suitable. Second, he also only knows one person who can complete this task.

  "Help me check the phone number of Nanshan City Police Department's Criminal Investigation Division." After dialing the local inquiry number, the phone quickly returned with the searched information, followed by a pleasant and clear recitation of the digits into Chu Yan's ear.

  "I'm looking for Director Huang." The phone connected, and Chu Yan got straight to the point. After a brief moment, a loud voice came from the other end of the line, "This is Huang Kai of the Serious Crimes Unit 3, who's asking for me?"

  "Director Huang, long time no see." Upon hearing Huang Kai's voice, Chu Yan's smile burst forth in an instant, and the person on the other end of the phone also recognized Chu Yan's voice at the first moment.

  "Is that Chu Yan? It's been a long time, do you have something to ask me?" Huang Kai wasn't one for idle chatter either. Although he was surprised that Chu Yan had called him out of the blue, his memories of Chu Yan were still vivid - after all, it was thanks to this guy that he'd cracked that big case.

  "Huang Zong, I'm looking for you, it must be something good..." Chu Yan smiled and softly spoke out his purpose.

  ………

  Downstairs, Mo Xiuyao had already made preparations to go out. She was wearing a cool sleeveless dress, with a shell-beaded belt around her waist. On her feet were a pair of white high-heeled sandals. Her long hair cascaded down her shoulders like a waterfall. In her hand, she held a delicate limited-edition Hermès handbag.

  "Is this your multiple wear point?"
