The black figure said, "The real Jeremy Lin was only brought here for one time, and that was a week ago. At that time, we took a photo and took him away immediately. The rest of the time, we were just waiting here for someone to find us."
"What? Jeremy has long been gone?" Fade said. He looked surprised and then said in a deep voice, "Then, what's the purpose of all of you here?"
"I, I don't know. We are just his minions. We listen to the orders of our superiors and wait here. The longer we delay this, the better," the black figure said.
"Delaying the people who are here, and delaying me. Why is this..." Fade frowned and thought about the purpose of these guys.
Suddenly, he realized something. They had sent a picture of Jeremy to Quin Lin, informing her that Quin must get here within three days. Obviously, their target was Quin, not him.
Fade started to tremble when he thought about this. "Oh my wife, my wife, will you be in danger?"he thought to himself.
"My wife is now in town and is protected by Big Brother Gu's people. Plus, she has the Sacred Figs amulet with Ice Silk that I gave her,so she should be quite safe," Fade thought in his heart.
Right then, Wade and the rest of the guys had arrived, panting. When they saw the two black figures, they asked out of curiosity, "Mr. Chen, are they the people you're looking for?"
Fade shook his head, and he was about to speak.
However, right at this moment, he realized something, and a bulb lit up in his mind.
The superior of these guys had ordered them to delay the people who were here at the village, and their target was Quin. There seemed to be a contradiction in this matter.
Under normal circumstances, Quin would definitely come to this place to look for her elder brother after finding these clues. However, these two men wanted to hold off the people who had come over, so they were supposed to delay Quin, yet their target was also Quin. Therefore, this was obviously not logical.
There was only one explanation for this whole situation.
The other party was able to confirm that the person coming to this small village was someone else, and not Quin. Therefore, they had to delay the person who was here and then get hold of their real target, Quin.
Thinking of this, Fade, who felt relieved from the tense situation, became nervous again.
At the same time, his thoughts were spinning rapidly. If his opponent was able to confirm that Quin was not coming to this small village, then they must have some other tricks up their sleeves, which they were waiting to reveal.
Recalling the encounters of his wife and himself, Fade became worried. He could only think of one person... Big Brother Gu.
All their clues were given by Big Brother Gu. Old Ma and Wade were also the people sent by Big Brother Gu. In addition to that, when Quin said that she wanted to join the search, it was Big Brother Gu who said that it was too dangerous for her and asked Quin to stay behind.
So with all these facts, Big Brother Gu certainly knew the man behind this, or he himself could even be the man behind this.
Quin was supposed to be 'protected' by Big Brother Gu's people at this time. At the thought of this, Fade's heart skipped a beat and he became even more concerned.
He immediately took out his cell phone and dialed his wife's number. The sound from the other end indicated that the phone was off, and Fade's heart sank once again. He became even more worried. He gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "Fairman Gu, it will be good if nothing happened to my wife. Otherwise, I'll tear you into pieces."
In the meantime, Wade had come over with his men. He didn't notice the strange look on Fade's face and he asked, "Mr. Chen, would you like to look around near this place again? I..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Fade's countenance suddenly changed. He stared at Wade coldly and replied, "Tell me, what task did Big Brother Gu arrange for you?"
