The CEO's 100 Billion Bride: The Secret War of the Rich

At four o'clock in the morning, the corridor of the North City Sanatorium was still echoing with hurried footsteps. A cordon was set up at the door of Ward 1103, and forensic doctors and trace examiners were working inside. The smell of blood permeated through the crack in the door, making people shudder.

Su Wanwan leaned on the bench in the corridor, still holding the bloody USB drive tightly in her hand. Wang Jianming's last words echoed in her ears: "We must find out the truth..."

"The initial judgment is that it was done by a sniper." Liu Feng came over with the investigation report. "The bullet has been specially processed and there are no rifling marks. The method is professional, so it should be an experienced killer."

Huo Yanshen put his coat on Su Wanwan's shoulders and said, "I have arranged for people to set up surveillance around the hospital. You should take a rest first."

"No thanks." Su Wanwan shook her head and took out a laptop from her bag. "I want to see what's in the USB drive."

The moment the USB drive is inserted, an encryption interface pops up on the screen. Below the password input box is a line of small words: "How many springs do magnolias bloom?"

"Is this a code word?" Liu Feng came over to take a look.

Su Wanwan thought about the magnolia cufflinks in the photo and suddenly remembered something: "April 1999, 4!" She quickly typed "".

The screen flashed and the file was unlocked.

Inside was a series of bank transfer records and meeting memoranda. Su Wanwan quickly browsed through them, and suddenly her pupils shrank.

"This is..."

A document titled "Genesis Project" came into view. The document showed that between 1999 and 2002, the Magnolia Club secretly acquired a number of technology companies and laboratories around the world through multiple offshore accounts. These institutions all had one thing in common - they were conducting some mysterious biotechnology research.

“Look at this.” Su Wanwan pointed to a scanned copy and said, “This is my father’s autograph. He was the financial director of the project at the time.”

As he was speaking, the computer screen suddenly flickered.

"Not good!" Huo Yanshen reacted very quickly and pulled out the USB drive.

The next second, the laptop screen went completely black and the motherboard emitted a burnt smell.

"There's a hacker attack!" Liu Feng immediately called for technical support, "The other party is trying to destroy the evidence remotely."

At this moment, Su Wanwan's phone vibrated. An encrypted text message:

"We have already obtained the evidence, so you don't need to worry about it. As for Wang Jianming... he is just a start. Six o'clock in the morning, don't let us down."

Below the message, there was a real-time photo. A figure was standing on the edge of the hospital rooftop, with his back to the camera. It was none other than Elder Wang!

"Quick! Get to the rooftop!"

Several people rushed to the safe passage. However, when they reached the top of the building, they only saw Mr. Wang standing outside the guardrail, staggering.

"Uncle Wang, don't be impulsive!" Su Wanwan shouted.

Mr. Wang turned around with a strange smile on his face: "They said... as long as I jump, they will let my family go..."

"Don't believe them! We can definitely find a way..."

"It's too late..." Old Wang smiled bitterly, "This world... is darker than you think. Your father..."

Before he finished speaking, Mr. Wang's pupils suddenly dilated. He covered his neck, as if he wanted to say something, but could only make a "ho ho" sound.

"No!"

Su Wanwan rushed over to grab him, but only grabbed a piece of his clothes. Old Wang's body fell backwards, falling into the darkness like a bird with broken wings.

"Bang!" A heavy impact sound came from below.

After the scene was urgently sealed off, the forensic doctor soon discovered a shocking detail - Mr. Wang's blood contained a neurotoxin that could cause muscle paralysis in a short period of time. In other words, he did not jump off the building voluntarily.

"They have an insider." Huo Yanshen's eyes were gloomy, "otherwise it would be impossible to succeed in such a short time."

"It's not just an insider." Liu Feng received a report from the technical team, "The other party used some high-tech means to hack into the monitoring system of the entire building. From the time Mr. Wang was kidnapped to his murder, all the key footage disappeared."

Su Wanwan stood there, looking at the glaring bloodstain on the ground. A terrible thought came to her mind: Did my father go through the same thing back then?

Just then, a sharp brake sound was heard.

Several people rushed to the window and saw a black car speeding away from the back door of the hospital. The rear of the car reflected a metallic luster in the moonlight.

"Chase!"

The police car rushed out of the hospital. However, the other party was obviously familiar with the terrain, and shuttled back and forth in the intricate alleys. Not long after, they got rid of the pursuers.

When the patrolman found the black car, it was already burning by the river. In the flames, the driver's seat was empty except for a magnolia-shaped cufflink.

The sky was turning pale, and the lights in the hospital corridor gradually dimmed. Su Wanwan checked her phone. It was five-thirty.

There is only half an hour left.

"Don't go." Huo Yanshen held her hand, "It's too dangerous."

Su Wanwan turned and looked at him: "If I don't go, more people will die. Mr. Wang's death has already made me feel guilty enough."

She took out the USB flash drive from her pocket: "The secret inside may be the key to everything. I must..."

Before she could finish her words, a loud noise interrupted her!

The hospital's glass was shattered in an instant. Several people instinctively lay down, and when they looked up, they saw thick smoke rising from the top floor of the building opposite.

"That is..." Su Wanwan's pupils shrank, "Wang Lao's residence!"

The sirens sounded throughout the night sky. A bigger conspiracy was quietly unfolding in the darkness of this city...
