There are still ten days left until the time Elder Fan provided, but Zhu Fan still has no intention of meeting Xiaofan.

And Xiaofan finds it inconvenient to actively seek out Zhu Fan. To get any information from Zhu Fan's side, he relies entirely on Li Kuo for help.

The strength of one person is ultimately limited. Xiaofan dares to say that, until now, if he wanted to come and go freely within the Red Butterfly, no one could stop him. However, if he wanted to take down the entire Red Butterfly organization, he would have no choice but to rely on his companions.

And sure enough, information from Li Kuo's side came pouring in.

"Xiaofan, the Federation Bureau people are investigating the port warehouse incident. Tonight at 10:50 PM, a battle broke out at the warehouse where Red Butterfly stored those chemicals. The Federation Bureau and Red Butterfly have been locked in conflict."

"The Federation Bureau found the warehouse this quickly?"

Xiaofan was a bit surprised to hear this news. Back then, David was also a secret agent sent by the Federation Bureau, and his mission was to assassinate Xiaofan's uncle, Ye Dahe. Xiaofan had heard it firsthand then, that if they failed, the Federation Bureau would ask Red Butterfly for help.

From another perspective, it seems the two sides have a cooperative relationship.

But the cooperation is not deep; the Federation Bureau only seeks Red Butterfly's help when necessary, showing that even M Country doesn't want to owe Red Butterfly too many favors.

But now they are fighting, which means the drug HLY007 has already become a focal point for various countries. Everyone wants a piece of the pie.

This kind of information can't be sealed off just because Zhu Fan wants it to be. If Xiaofan can find out about it, then surely the Federation Bureau has already prepared long ago.

Given the current developments, it seems the new drug is nearing completion. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people infiltrating XG to investigate or even attempt theft.

What will Zhu Fan do to handle the current situation next?

All of Red Butterfly's experts have already returned, aiming to ensure the final product. Upon reflection, Elder Fan's suggestion to destroy the research institute first was indeed foresighted. It was only because of himself that things were delayed for so long.

Another piece of information is that from the previous internal competition, besides himself and Wu Hu and a team leader he killed, Zhu Fan selected three others from the top eight to establish a new four-gate. Maybe due to insufficient manpower, they only appointed three people for now.

Finding the situation suspicious, Xiaofan had Han Shengjun, Ren Ying, and Lei Xiaolei follow closely. The intel they got was what Xiaofan suspected – Zhu Fan wouldn't just let it go after the four-gate was wiped out.

However, why are they in such a rush to establish a new stronghold in this situation?

Regardless of the reason, Xiaofan can't let them succeed; he must uproot Zhu Fan's plan before it buds.

Therefore, Yanhuang Soul is busy again. Each of these three people leads three teams, so let Yanhuang Soul's brothers monitor these three teams. Once the actions of the three individuals are confirmed, they will conduct a unified capture to avoid alerting the enemy.

After consuming so much time, Red Butterfly no longer has many people to use. So the next day, Zhu Fan decisively contacted Xiaofan.

"Bug, come with me."

"Huh? For what?"

"This time we're going to Red Butterfly's headquarters, more people familiarizing themselves with the environment will make it easier to record each special place."

Red Butterfly's headquarters? Is it finally going to appear?

"Headquarters, oh my, I'm not even mentally prepared yet. We're going to the headquarters already?"

"You must go. If something happens to me, you can immediately notify Li Kuo to prepare. I've already informed Li Kuo."

"Something's up? No way? Another dangerous task, huh? Why are you dragging me along when you know there's danger?" Li San said, curling his lips.

"There's no choice. Who else can I rely on but you?"

Upon hearing this, Li San was slightly taken aback, then a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. "Hey, since you put it that way, I guess I'll reluctantly accompany you this time."

With that, the two of them walked down the stairs step by step.

In the downstairs lobby, Bai Xue and the others sat on the sofa. With nothing much to do, they usually apply face masks and watch TV, sometimes shopping, but since returning from North Gate, Bai Xue and the others seemed visibly more downbeat than before, rarely speaking, likely sensing the looming massive changes facing the Red Butterfly.

"Don't go anywhere in the next few days. Just stay here."

"Where are you going?"

"Zhu Fan's got something for me."

"When will you be back?" Bai Xue asked prodding.

"As long as I'm not dead, of course, I'll be back."

"Then, you guys be careful."

"Mm."

Bai Xue had a lot to worry about, and right now, they could only rely on Black Mantis. If Black Mantis wholeheartedly helped them obtain what they desired, it would be wonderful. But even if he didn't help, as long as he safely continued to be their leader, it would be okay too. Such a life, slowly getting used to it, made people somewhat lazy.

Unconsciously following Xiaofan and Li San out the door, watching them get in the car, at this moment, the originally cold three female assassins suddenly softened. No matter what, they were just women who needed solid shoulders to protect them.

Xiaofan soon arrived at the location Uncle Zhong designated. Sometimes Xiaofan had to admire the scale of Red Butterfly; they could always find a new stronghold, and every place was incredibly secretive.

Like the current location, a very luxurious villa; from the first step inside, Xiaofan felt an immense pressure.

Masters, masters, many masters.

The sheer strength of each one left Xiaofan a bit tongue-tied. He had thought the strength of Cui Yuan and other sect leaders was quite formidable, but here, almost everyone he encountered exuded a cold aura.

If Xiaofan guessed correctly, these people should be the ones Li Kuo mentioned before – the team specifically tasked with assassination missions.

"Black Mantis, coming here, you should feel honored, because even Wu Hu hasn't been able to visit this place."

In the hall, Xiaofan once again saw Zhu Fan. Unlike before, this time Zhu Fan seemed more confident than ever.

"What is this place?" Xiaofan asked casually.

"Welcome to the organization's headquarters. Those who come here have been recognized by the boss. You should feel happy," Uncle Zhong softly answered.
