A second chance with my billionaire husband-Chapter 1724 - 380: Casting a Curse—God’s Chosen One (Part 2)

Thinking of this, Qiao Bowen looked up at Yun Ya. "Nanmo has gone abroad and won’t return for at least a month, and Ah Song is not here. Given the recent rampage of armed factions, you should stay here at ease."

Yun Ya’s brow twitched, instinctively looking at Qiao Bowen.

Could he already know something?

"I’m fine staying with Uncle Chang. Besides, with someone as skilled as Shiba around, what can happen?"

Qiao Bowen was not open to discussion, "His place is complicated and extremely unsafe. Listen to your grandfather, the room is ready for you."

In this way, Yun Ya could not refuse.

Shiba packed the luggage for Yun Ya, "Miss Xuanxuan is staying with Doctor Hua, so you can rest easy, Miss."

Yun Ya frowned slightly. She wasn’t worried about Xuanxuan, but Qiao Bowen’s attitude made her a bit uneasy.

Qiao Yi personally handed a top-secret document to Qiao Bowen, whose fingers trembled as he opened it, his frown deepening as he read.

"Bauhinia Society?"

Qiao Yi bowed respectfully, "That’s right. This extremist organization has been causing chaos domestically, using accidents to cover their crimes and ambitions. Not long ago, Colonel Yan Song captured the spies this organization planted domestically, which made them a bit more quiet. Behind Dongfang Yi’s actions, lies the hand of this organization."

Qiao Bowen’s brow furrowed tightly, "How much do we know about this Bauhinia Society?"

"This organization is very mysterious. Based on reports from our overseas agents, it’s an extremist organization with advanced weapons, involved in terrorism, assassination, smuggling, and drug trafficking, among other crimes, and extremely secretive. So far, even the M-side MBI hasn’t obtained much useful information on them."

From Qiao Yi’s words, it was apparent that the enemy knew them well, yet they knew nothing about the Bauhinia Society.

The enemy is in the dark, while they are in the light. How should this battle be fought?

"However..." Qiao Yi took out another 4S-level top-secret document, "There’s news about the leader of the Bauhinia Society, just received from Flying Bird."

Flying Bird, the best agent in the National Security Department, adept at covert operations and intelligence gathering.

Qiao Bowen opened the document, which contained only one line of characters. To an untrained eye, they would appear as gibberish. But as that line reached Qiao Bowen’s mind, it automatically translated into text in his brain.

His fingers gripped the paper tightly, veins bulging on the back of his hand.

"How could this be?"

Qiao Yi lowered his eyes slightly.

Qiao Bowen, a man who had weathered many storms, quickly calmed down. After pondering, he said solemnly, "Increase vigilance. Ensure Yun Ya’s safety, and furthermore, investigate this organization thoroughly..."

"Yes."

Qiao Bowen looked at the scenery outside the window, his gaze deep and solemn. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

The mountain rain is about to come.

At 19:23 in the evening, a 6.3 magnitude earthquake struck Yunzhou City, Quanshan County in western Country Hua. The quake had a focal depth of over ten thousand kilometers, causing many houses to collapse, injuring more than a hundred people, with 28 missing. The news spread like wildfire on television and the internet.

Yun Ya was stunned upon seeing it.

Yunzhou? How could the timing be so coincidental?

Back then, she entrusted the task of finding Harun’s treasure to Uncle Chang. The journey was fraught with danger, yet Uncle Chang went without hesitation, leaving for months without any news.

The concern had always lingered in Yun Ya’s heart, and now, suddenly hearing about the Yunzhou earthquake?

The location of Harun’s treasure falls within Yunzhou’s area. With the earthquake in Yunzhou, could Uncle Chang be injured?

Yun Ya was restless.

Eighteen saw Yun Ya’s uneasy state and assumed she was worried about the safety of the people in the disaster area, "Miss, don’t worry. So far, there has been no news of any fatalities. Providence will protect them; everything will be alright."

Uncle Chang’s phone couldn’t be reached, and Yun Ya was anxious about his safety. That night, she didn’t sleep well.

Meanwhile, deep in the forests of Yunzhou, under a sparse starry sky, a lone spark illuminated the pitch-black night.

In the mountains of Yunzhou, nightfall brought a sharp drop in temperature, sometimes below freezing, leaving people unable to speak even a word.

A few people sat around a campfire, the flickering light casting shadows on a man’s face. A gash on his forehead was startling, making his gaze all the more unfathomable.

"Brother Chang, Little Fifth didn’t run fast enough and got buried."

Chang Hong’s brow furrowed tightly, "Alive, we see him in person; dead, we see his body."

"Brother Chang, don’t you find it strange? After we moved that stone lion, the earthquake suddenly happened. If we hadn’t run fast, none of us would have made it out. Could the earthquake be related to that tomb? I’ve heard that in ancient times, many high-ranking officials and noblemen cast curses after their deaths to warn against tomb raiders. Could the earthquake have something to do with that?"
