Go To Your Death Chapter 38
byChange of weather
The weather in New York changes at a moment’s notice.
The sky was cloudless and clear a second ago, but large swaths of dark clouds came from nowhere, weighing heavily on the skyline of high-rise buildings, making people breathless.
The wind also became strong, blowing up the fallen leaves and scraps of paper on the street, and a heavy rain was about to come.
Mu Huacheng hugged Lin Jinyao and walked out of the safe house step by step.
There was no expression on his face, as if the body in his arms was just a sleeping person.
He even carefully adjusted the position of his arms so that Lin Jin’s head could rest more comfortably on his shoulder – just like he had done countless times before.
Chen Jin followed closely behind him, his lips moved, and he wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn’t say a word.
He just stared at Mu Huacheng’s stiff back in silence, his eyes full of worry.
In the corner of the room, Zhou Xu’an collapsed on the ground, with tears on his face.
He watched Mu Huacheng hug his brother and leave from between his fingers, and he could not suppress the sobs in his throat.
Fan Yu supported Shou J, and both of them paused for a moment when they passed by Zhou Xu’an.
A trace of complicated emotions flashed across J’s pale face. He looked at Zhou Xu’an and finally just shook his head slightly and left with Fan Yu’s support.
Zhou Xu’an watched everyone’s figures disappear little by little at the end of the corridor, and finally slowly climbed up from the ground.
He wiped away the tears on his face with his sleeves, and his originally gentle eyes were extremely bright at this moment, shining with a certain light of determination.
Outside the door, Samuel leaned against the wall, watching Mu Huacheng holding Lin Jin expressionlessly as he passed by, with a trace of regret on his face.
“What a pity, Mr. Mu,” he said hypocritically.
Mu Huacheng walked forward as if he hadn’t heard anything.
Chen Jin glanced at Samuel coldly when he passed him. The coldness in his eyes made Samuel involuntarily put away his false expression.
“It’s so fake, it makes people feel sick!” Fan Yu followed behind and spat in a low voice.
Mu Huacheng hugged Lin Jin’s cold body and did not let go for a whole day and night.
He sat on the sofa in the cruise ship suite, motionless, as if he had turned into a sculpture.
During this period, someone brought food and water, but he didn’t even look at it; someone came to report something, but he turned a deaf ear.
No one dared to come forward to persuade him. It was not until Chen Jin had the courage to remind him that the body needed to be disposed of properly that Mu Huacheng slowly raised his head.
There was no sparkle in those scarlet eyes, just dead silence.
“Prepare the best crystal coffin.” His voice was hoarse and almost broken, “Go back to Xijing.”
However, just when Mu Huacheng had to leave briefly to deal with the follow-up matters of the cruise ship, Zhou Xu’an contacted a few of his most trusted people and quietly took Lin Jinyao’s body off the cruise ship under the cover of night.
All this was done without anyone noticing, and Zhou Xu’an was unexpectedly thorough and decisive.
In a quiet room, Zhou Xu’an personally changed Lin Jin’s clothes into clean clothes, carefully combed his hair, and carefully covered up the scars on his chest, making him look like he was asleep.
During the whole process, Zhou Xu’an’s movements were incredibly gentle, as if he was afraid of waking up his sleeping brother.
“Ah Yao, brother will take you home.” Zhou Xu’an said softly, tears falling uncontrollably again.
Zhou Xu’an buried Lin Jin next to Zhou Xubai’s cemetery.
This small town cemetery is quiet and simple, surrounded by evergreen trees and rolling hills in the distance.
Two simple tombstones stood side by side, and in front of them lay the white orchid that they both liked during their lifetimes.
After doing all this, Zhou Xu’an sat alone in front of the tomb for a long time, recalling the time he spent with his brothers, until it got light.
In the morning light, his figure looked particularly lonely.
But Zhou Xu’an didn’t expect that J who was following Fan Yu would suddenly appear in front of him.
Suddenly, J looked at him and smiled.
Zhou Xu’an frowned and looked at him warily.
“Don’t be nervous.” J said, “I discovered it when we were on the boat. You are very good at acting!”
“Each other!”
“However, if you do this, Mu Huacheng will not forgive you.” J’s voice was calm, and it was unclear whether it was a warning or a simple statement of facts.
Zhou Xu’an’s face was expressionless and he said two words: “Let him.”
J was silent for a moment, looked at him again, smiled and said, “Take care.”
After saying that, he turned around and left, appearing mysteriously and disappearing mysteriously.
When Mu Huacheng discovered that Lin Jinyao’s body was missing, he was furious and almost overturned the top of the cruise ship.
A thorough investigation was immediately ordered, and all clues quickly pointed to Zhou Xu’an.
Mu Huacheng was furious and chased him all the way to the cemetery in Xijing.
When he saw the two tombstones standing side by side, his whole body froze.
Zhou Xu’an stood in front of the tomb, waiting calmly, with no fear on his face, only a deathly sadness.
“Who allowed you to do this?!” Mu Huacheng grabbed Zhou Xu’an’s collar, veins popped out on the back of his hands, and his voice trembled with extreme anger, “Who gave you the courage to take him away from me?! And bury him here!”
Zhou Xu’an didn’t struggle, just looked up at him with empty eyes.”He’s my brother!”
“He is my lover!” Mu Huacheng growled, raising his other hand suddenly and about to drop it.
Zhou Xu’an closed his eyes, preparing to bear the blow.However, the slap did not fall in the end.
Mu Huacheng’s hand froze in mid-air. He stared at Zhou Xu’an, then looked at Lin Jin for the brand new tombstone, and then looked at Zhou Xubai’s tombstone next to him.
Various emotions intertwined in his eyes, eventually turning into nothingness.
He suddenly let go of Zhou Xu’an, as if all his strength had been drained away.
Chen Jin stepped forward and helped Mu Huacheng, who was almost unsteady, but he gently pushed him away.
Mu Huacheng broke away from Chen Jin’s arms and walked step by step to Lin Jinyao’s tomb. He slowly squatted down and touched the cold name on the tombstone with trembling fingers.
His shoulders shook slightly, but he didn’t make any sound.
After a long time, he turned his back to Zhou Xu’an and said in an extremely tired and hoarse voice, “Get out.”
Zhou Xu’an was obviously stunned for a moment, as if he didn’t expect Mu Huacheng to let him go so easily.
“Before I change my mind,” Mu Huacheng’s voice was low and depressed, “disappear from my eyes immediately.”
Zhou Xu’an looked at Mu Huacheng’s tall back that seemed to collapse in an instant. He was silent for a moment, and finally whispered, “I won’t thank you.”
He turned around and left slowly, walked a few steps, then stopped without looking back, “Mu Huacheng, to Yao, you are different after all.”
Mu Huacheng’s body shook violently.
Zhou Xu’an had quietly left the cemetery, leaving Mu Huacheng alone.
The setting sun stretched his shadow very long, making him look particularly lonely.
He sat down against Lin Jinyao’s tombstone, just like he had hugged that living person countless times before.
Chen Jin and his men stayed far away, not daring to get close.
From then on, Mu Huacheng did not touch Lin Jinyao’s tomb, nor did he pursue Zhou Xu’an’s behavior.
He just sent people to guard the cemetery all year round and did not allow any idlers to disturb it.
Occasionally, he would come here alone and stay for most of the day.
Sometimes Chen Jin would hear him whispering to the tombstone, his tone as calm as chatting, but the content was sad.
“Zhou Xu’an tried to look up old things from twenty years ago again today… He’s just like you and doesn’t make people worry.”
Once, it rained heavily in Xijing. Chen Jin went to the cemetery to pick up Mu Huacheng and heard him holding an umbrella and saying softly to the tombstone, “Ah Yao, this ‘relic’ you left behind… you have a bad temper and a tough temper. I am worthy of growing up with you.”
“I’ll be looking at him like… I’m looking at you.”
The patter of rain covered up the tenderness and pain hidden in the man’s voice.
Everyone knows that Zhou Xu’an is safe and sound just because he is one of the few people Lin Jin wants to leave behind who is related to him.
Three months later.
An unprecedented storm has set off in New York’s financial circle.
The cause of everything is that the actual controller of Flo Holding Group intercepted the scientific research results of Samuel’s group.And, it was the last straw that broke the camel’s back!
“Boss, after your death, Mu Huacheng has been suppressing Samuel. Some time ago, Samuel sent several young boys away, hoping that Mr. Mu would calm down.”
In a luxurious office on the top floor of a Manhattan skyscraper, Lin Jin wants to stand in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking the bustling street scene of New York.
His face was slightly pale and his figure was thinner than before, but the sharpness and intelligence in his eyes remained unchanged.
“Has Mr. Mu calmed down?”
The corner of J’s mouth curled up, “No, it seems that the suppression is even more severe! The leaders of Country M came forward to mediate, but Mr. Mu didn’t even see it.”
J and K stood in front of him, lowering their heads and reporting on their work during this period.
Lin Jinyao smiled and said after a while: “Let’s get down to business.”
“Boss, you are right. Samuel was indeed the leader of the failed biochemical crisis twenty years ago.” Lin Jinyao’s voice was calm, but with unquestionable authority.
K also nodded, “We have tracked all his movements and communication records, and the evidence is conclusive.”
“Give me the list.” Lin Jin extended his hand.
K immediately stepped forward and inserted a micro memory into the terminal device on his desk.
“This is the list of all scientific researchers obtained from Samuel. It has been transferred to your cloud database.”
Lin Jinyao quickly browsed the list, and his eyes suddenly focused on a name.
The name of Bai Ting, Zhou Xubai’s mother, actually appeared in the list of scientific researchers of this deceased person.
A trace of surprise flashed in Lin Jinyao’s eyes, “So… is this actually the case?”
There was silence in the office for a moment, and Lin Jinyao’s eyes gradually became deeper.
Many past doubts seem to have found clues to explanations at this moment.
“Go and check!” Lin Jin ordered J, “I want to know all the information about Bai Ting, her role in this project, and the cause of her death.”
J nodded respectfully, “Understood.”
Lin Jin wanted to think for a moment and then added, “Also, bring Zhou Hongbing to see me.”
K frowned slightly, with concern in his tone, “Lin, your injuries are not fully healed yet, you need to rest. Leave these messy things to me!”
Lin Jin couldn’t help but cough twice, shook his head, and said with firm eyes, “No, I have to ask in person and bring him here.”
J and K looked at each other and knew that it was useless to persuade them, so they had no choice but to leave.
The office became quiet again. Lin Jin walked slowly to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the bustling city street below with complicated eyes.
As if suddenly, many past events came to mind, and finally, everything seemed to have a clue and explanation.
