Chapter 52: Curtain Falls.
Han Ming knew that this voice belonged to his son, he said calmly, "Yuntian, don\'t worry, I am here."
He thought that the person with a black mask was his son, then he moved his gaze to the man with the gun and said, "You don\'t have to kill him, put away the weapon and take the money. Let my son go."
However, the person shook his head slightly and asked in a hoarse voice, "Do you really think that your money can buy the life of this beast? Given how many crimes you bastards have committed, my deed would be called a good deed."
Han Ming furrowed his brows and asked coldly, "Do you think you can walk away after crossing me like this?"
Hao Ren was very cruel. He did not intend to let any of them walk away from this place. His decay poison had already taken effect on Maria\'s body, and now he was going to play with these two father and son.
Hao Ren watched from the holes in the mask, that Han Ming was getting angry and that was what he wanted. Behind him, Han Yuntian was having a hard time. His father was being humiliated by Hao Ren, and whilst he held the gun, he had no power in his body. He did not know how this guy was controlling him, but he was helpless.
His rage had began to gush from his eyes. Suddenly, Hao Ren dashed forward and Han Yuntian\'s voice sounded, "Dad! Shoot this motherfucker."
Han Ming was shocked, he did not expect his son to pull of a stunt like this. However, he also came prepared with a gun. Han Ming dropped the bag on the ground and quickly took out the weapon from his waist holster, and then took aim at the armed man who was still shocked. He fired three shots quickly.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The dark woods thundered and the bullets pierced through the flesh of Han Yuntian. He watched as his father shot him in the chest. Han Ming took a few deep breaths, and he rushed towards \'his son\' who has fallen on the ground. He panted and said, "Yuntian! Yuntian... son, are you okay?"
\'Han Yuntian\' turned around and before Han Min could react, he sensed a prick on his neck. He rubbed his neck, and helped Han Yuntian stand up. He dusted his clothes and said, "Thank god you are okay, I was scared to death."
Hao Ren looked at him and took off his mask before he said, "Han Ming, aren\'t you a hypocrite?"
Han Ming froze and raised his head to look at Hao Ren, he was shocked, and asked sharply, "Who are you?!"
Hao Ren said, "I am Hao Ren."
Han Ming opened his eyes wide and Hao Ren pointed at the real Han Yuntian laying on the ground, he said, "That\'s your real son. You shot him with your own hands."
Han Ming was shocked, his face turned pale at the thought of hurting Han Yuntian. He did not even look at Hao Ren and rushed over to check on Han Yuntian quickly. He did not even pay attention to Hao Ren.
He rushed quickly to check on Han Yuntian and knelt on the ground. He touched his chest and wailed, "Yuntian!"
Han Yuntian was bleeding from the shot wounds, his shirt was drenched in blood, and his breathing was shallow. Hao Ren watched everything from the side, and picked up the money bag from the ground. His gaze was so cold that it could freeze the flames of hell. Han Ming cried, and watched as his son took his last breaths.
Hao Ren lowered his gaze to look at the wrist watch and turned around to leave. As Han Yuntian\'s eyes turned dim, Han Ming mumbled repeatedly, "Yuntian, dad is sorry, he did not know. I am sorry for killing you..."
That was it, he did not turn around to confront Hao Ren. This was because of the drug that Hao Ren injected him with. It was a high dosage of a degenerative drug. Apart from the last few moments, Han Ming would not remember anything. Even if he cannot be convicted by the law, he would spend the rest of his life as a dummy.
Hao Ren was walking away when Xiao Mei said, "Boss, you forgot the storage drive. also, you forgot to take out the needles from Han Yuntian and Maria."
Hao Ren froze and let out a gentle laugh as he said, "Xiao Mei, you just ruined my swag."
Xiao Mei replied, "Boss, I apologize, but there is no one who cares about your swag in the woods."
Hao Ren almost stumbled and fell on the ground. He shook his head and quickly went over to Han Ming and took off the chain around his neck. Han Ming did not even notice it, he only held onto Han Yuntian\'s hand and kept mumbling. Hao Ren took out the needles from the bodies and tidied up the place.
Xiao Mei said, "Boss, the cops are ten minutes away."
Hao Ren sighed and picked up his bag as he left the scene. He was using his assassination skills, to ensure that he did not leave behind any trace.
...
Ten minutes away, flash lights could be seen in the woods. Five cops were searching for people, one of them said, "Boss, I have a feeling that this was a prank call."
The man in the lead said, "Can you shut up, Xiao Ting. Just do your job."
They moved slowly but suddenly an officer shouted, "Captain, I found them."
They all moved in that direction, and soon they all had their guns aimed at the person on the ground and shouted to make him cooperate. However, Han Ming was just repeating the same phrase in a low voice.
They did not have any trouble hand-cuffing him and them taking him into custody as they called for forensics and reported two death counts.
...
Hao Ren was resting in the bed when he got a call from Yue Shenlong. He put it on speaker and asked, "Brother Shen, what happened?"
Yue Shenlong shouted, "What the fuck did you do? How did the police find that Maria has been dead for ten days? Wasn\'t she alive in the morning?"
Hao Ren said, "Why do you care what I did? Can you stop poking too much into the things that have nothing to do with you?"
Yue Shenlong suddenly fell silent, and then he asked, "I found from my contacts that Han Ming has gone insane. They are saying that he killed his son as well. Brother-in-law, what did you do? This is a perfect crime."
Hao Ren sighed and said, "Brother Shen, there is no such thing as a perfect crime. Also, can you let me sleep, I am tired from all this."
Yue Shenlong could not help but take a deep breath and say, "I don\'t know what you did and how you did it. However, if you ever had any idea against my sister..."
Hao Ren interrupted him and said, "I assure you that if there is one person for whom I am willing to go against the world and bear the sins on my heart, that person is Lingshi. Now, do not annoy me, please. I am really tired and need to rest."
Yue Shenlong nodded and then disconnected the call. He lay in bed and sighed because the entire day he was working. He had to come up with a plan, discuss with Xiao Mei to remove the loopholes and then he had to prepare the medicines too. He was running around and his injuries have not yet healed properly.
However, just as he closed his eyes, his phone rang again. He sighed and checked who was calling him and found it to be Han Lingshi. He smiled faintly and picked up the call, the first thing Han Lingshi asked made him think that everything was worth it.
"Ren are you okay? You are not hurt, are you?"
Hao Ren shook his head with a faint smile on his face, and then two began to talk about what happened in the wood. The more Hao Ren told them about how he planned things, the more Han Lingshi and Han Lingxue were shocked and looked at him as if he were some monster.
Hao Ren scratched the back of his head and asked, "Can you two stop looking at me like this?"
Han Lingxue said, "Brother-in-law, did you leave Han Ming alive, because of my family?"
Hao Ren looked at her and said, "Lingxue, no matter what kind of a person he is. If he had fallen in this whole thing, he would have left a void in the heart of your mother, and grandparents. At least, now, they will have some assurance that Han Ming will be living with them. They could watch him."
Han Lingxue sniffled and closed her eyes as she said, "Good. I am sleepy, bye."
She left the room quickly to hid her vulnerable side. Han Lingshi looked at her and did not stop her. She sighed and said, "Ren, are you really okay?"
Hao Ren smiled and asked, "You are asking me because you think that I will be effected mentally because I killed some?"
Han Lingshi hesitated and then nodded, Hao Ren smiled and said, "You should come back, I have a lot of things to tell you."
Han Lingshi nodded with a smile and said, "One more week at the least, I will be back."
The two people fed each other some sweet nothings for a while before they disconnected the call.
...
While Han Lingshi and Hao Ren were flirting, in another corner of the world, a middle aged man was leaning against the bed with a young woman in his bed. Suddenly, the door of the room was pushed open and a young man walked in. He furrowed his brows and said, "Han Ming has been declared insane by the cops of Han Nation."
The middle aged man furrowed and said, "Find out how this happened. Also, change your girlfriend. I like this one, and I am keeping her."
The young man left the room without a word. However, the old man did not miss out the cold light flashing in his eyes. He sighed and said, "You are still too green to fight me for the throne, son."
