Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?-Chapter 378 The Kwo Estate
For today's matter, Bewoh only took 6 students with him.
He took as many as he felt he could protect.
"Elder Bewoh. Please, forgive my delay. We were just setting up communications."
Payne gestured towards the other nearby vans in disguise.
There was a van with a cable-company logo on it.
He figured there should be a while team inside with high-tech equipment to listen in on anything happening in the estate.
Some people were taking their 'morning' run along the roads within this gated community, while others had entered the house of nearby villas, setting up all sorts of equipment there.
Drones disguised as birds flew, and other high-tech equipment were made fully functional.
Ghu Sota was again blown away by their operations.
In fact, no one needed to tell him how much preparation they did because, as a cultivator, he could sense his surroundings with his eyes closed.
If he were ordinary, he would have thought the outside scene normal.
But look to your left, the bush there isn't actually a bush. Someone is in there, in a comfortable position.
'Am I in a spy movie?'
.
The van Bewoh and the group were in wasn't disguised. It was left as it was... A police van.
Today, they made it no secret they would be here to do investigations.
As for Wei Kwo, the estate owner, he wasn't available.
Not too long ago, Mr. Kwo had a terrible and unfortunate accident that put him in the hospital.
From all indications, he met thugs on the way who beat him blue, black, and purple.
The surveillance captured the masked men beating him silly. But though he was the victim, what was he doing there without his usual guards at such a suspicious location?
He must have been up to no good too. And even after he woke, they turned to find the culprit, but he brushed it off.
There was no helping it.
Since the victim was concerned about privacy rights, they had to drop the matter lest they got sued.
His injury was indeed terrible. It was so bad that he wouldn't be able to leave the hospital for 3 weeks.
Of course, just because they didn't bring the matter up to Mr. Kwo didn't mean they won't investigate it.
What a joke.
All missing people are workers in his estate. So who knows if the incident surrounding his accident was somehow linked to this matter?
Huh.
He was their prime suspect in this matter. Just his character trait showed he was too greedy for money.
Such a person could do anything for a few more Vyns. So who is to say he didn't involve himself in legal trafficking?
No bodies were found, and no one saw the missing people leave the estate. Either their bones were buried somewhere here, or they were transported out when no one was watching.
"Lead... We'll follow behind you."
"Ah!--... Not a problem, Elder Bewoh."
Elder Bewoh?
The field agents and police inspectors were bewildered.
No doubt about it, Payne was at least '20 years' older than Bewoh. So where did the term elder come from?
(-_-)
.
In truth, the version Bewoh they saw wasn't how he looked several weeks back.
Ever since he began cultivating, his appearance had reverted from his late 30s to late 20s.
Yes. He looked no older than 27.
So hearing Payne call him elder was too jarring.
No matter how you look at it, there was something wrong with this scene.
Forget it...
The field agents and inspectors threw the matter at the back of their heads, focusing on the issue at hand.
The van and a few vehicles drove in while the undercover ones stayed outside.
Driving in, one could see how luxurious the sight was. However, they felt so gloomy all of a sudden, making it hard to admire their luxurious surroundings.
Ghu Sota stepped out of the van and opened his eyes in shock.
The entire place was covered with a frail purplish cloud.
'Are you saying these people aren't seeing this?'
Of course as a cultivator, he could close his 3rd eye if he wanted to. 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚
But since he was here for a case, it looks like he would be back in the Victorian days... Only the fog was purplish.
Then others also saw the fog, already dawning from expressions.
Why so serious?
The police inspectors and field agents snicker in their hearts.
Just look at how they were already sweating when the job hadn't started.
.
In silence, the group walked along the massive roundabout and was just about to descend the stairway leading into the main house when shortly... they heard the sounds of heels rushing over. 𝗳𝘳𝐞e𝙬𝙚𝚋𝗻𝚘𝚟𝗲l.𝑐𝑜ｍ
"Get out of the way! I'm going to welcome the guests."
A figure quickly rushed out shyly, with her eyes ranking on Ghu Sota.
Earlier, she, her brother, and her mother were waiting for this group in the main hall.
But when she looked out the window, who did she see? The Ghu Heir!
This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for her to come this close to Ghu Sota.
If she hooked up with him, wouldn't she be the next of millions across the country?
Her father won't limit her spending budget, and her boyfriend will also give her millions. So wasn't this a dream come true?
It would amaze many to know that within this brief time, she took out her compact mirror and did a few touches like lighting.
She pushed her bosoms and bit her lip for an even redder effect.
This Ghu heir... She must get!
Yes.
Think about it.
Ghu Sota wasn't any police officer, nor was his family involved with such matters.
So why was he here? Obviously, for her.
He must have seen her in that Paint gallery show and grown smitten with her.
'So he's here to know me better?'
Brya was pleased.
She blushed and stared at Ghu Sota with her most charming expression.
"Brother Gu. Are you here to see me?"
".. Who are you?"
