Special Forces Medic-Chapter 687 - 651: The Land of Extreme Peril

Incredibly, the master behind the Northern Palace is an unknown elder. Secretary Luo was astonished by such a result, but he wouldn't just let it go; there must be something wrong at some point, or perhaps the other side was deliberately concealing the truth from the very beginning. Conversely, the more this was the result, the more Secretary Luo felt there was something amiss.

He looked at the report. From the management status to the tax rate submitted, everything seemed simple and clear, yet it increasingly pointed to a forgery issue.

The Northern Palace has been around for only three years from its establishment to its opening, and the monthly tax submission rate is only sixty percent. Where is the remaining forty percent? Did it just disappear without a trace? The tax bureau did not take any measures regarding this forty percent, meaning the tax issue of the Northern Palace has been shelved as idle accounts over the past three years.

Secondly, the construction team for building the Northern Palace was Jian Yi Construction. However, there were no records of such financial transactions on the Northern Palace's accounts. Jian Yi is a municipal team under the city council, primarily engaging in public projects. Private enterprises like the Northern Palace usually can't hire a team of this caliber.

Thirdly, there is a geographic issue with the Northern Palace's location; it's near the central lake, with half of the building situated in the lake.

According to the city planning map, the central lake is considered national land and is classified as a greenbelt for public facilities, yet it has somehow become the dragon's tail of the Northern Palace. The official who approved the land has already died at home due to a sudden heart attack.

Secretary Luo couldn't help but consider the cause of death of this land bureau official back then. However, pulling out the case files for review now would undoubtedly attract attention.

Secretary Luo leaned into the sofa in his room, deeply trapped in a state of extreme exhaustion. Hua Qingyi had not encountered any mishap, and regarding this, he didn't know how to report it to Hua Muyun. Logically, he should have informed Hua Muyun of this news immediately, but his intuition told him not to.

Knocks on the door came at this moment, indicating it was time to leave. He put aside the report on the desk. Unintentionally, his eyes glanced out the window; today was a nice day, just past noon, with the sun still shining brightly.

Summer was approaching, and the sweltering air had quietly surrounded him. He draped his suit over his arm, hesitated, yet placed the bag next to the report, and opened a crack, allowing fresh air to enter the room.

"Secretary Luo, Hengfei's driver is already downstairs. Do you want to go now or wait a moment?" The accompanying personnel were waiting outside.

"Let's go now!" Secretary Luo was the first to enter the elevator. "Just have someone follow our car, and let the other two proceed according to the original plan."

"Secretary Luo, Master Hua wants us to follow throughout." The accompanying personnel tactfully refused Secretary Luo's arrangement. Along with their orders, they were also instructed to ensure Secretary Luo's safety, disregarding everything else.

"It's alright; they won't target me for the time being." Understanding Hua Muyun's concerns, but from his perspective, perhaps the bigger their move, the more likely they are to reveal their tails. "Today's negotiation with Yan Juanjuan will be a crucial point. Even if they intend to act, it will be afterward. Being overly cautious now might instead give them a chance to plan."

"But..." During their hesitation, the elevator went straight to the lobby, and at a distance, one could see the black company car parked at the entrance. The driver in uniform and hat waited by the door, appearing to be well-trained, standing upright even at uncertain times, without even a hint of smoking. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"Say no more, just have someone follow me."

"Then please take this. Press the hidden button in times of danger." The accompanying personnel handed a watch to Secretary Luo. "Inside is a micro transceiver, allowing me to track your whereabouts at any time and it will send danger reports."

Secretary Luo looked at this small object and couldn't help but smile slightly. "Got it."

Hengfei Group was located right next to the North District Government Building. As he got out of the car, Secretary Luo looked up at these two skyscrapers. 'Sky Slash'? That is extremely inauspicious Feng Shui.

Between the two buildings is a narrow gap, as if a complete building was sliced from above, thus called a 'Sky Slash', and the Hengfei building faces a curved road—another place of great misfortune.

The winding road resembles a scythe; facing the road front on suggests being severed at the waist, while having its back to the road implies being stabbed in the back.

Never had he seen such a coincidence; this place indeed was a spot of extreme malevolence.

"May I ask if you are Secretary Luo?" As Secretary Luo was still observing the architecture, a poised young woman came out from the building. Smartly dressed in professional attire, with a light makeup, her hair tied in a ponytail.

"Hello!"

"I am the secretary to the general manager of Hengfei. Please follow me."

The driver had already driven the car away. The young woman stepped aside, letting Secretary Luo go first. Entering the building, she led him to an exclusive elevator.

"The president has been waiting for a while!"

"Does President Yan have no other appointments today?" From Yao Zheng's side, Secretary Luo had learned that this President Yan was quite busy, with several meetings rescheduled due to lack of time.

"Originally, there was no time today; a client had come from overseas. President Yan pushed back the meeting time to specifically allocate some for Secretary Luo."

"That really is impolite of me, taking up President Yan's time." The young woman did not respond further, simply offering a polite smile.

"Please come in!" Walking the long corridor, the young woman opened a door for Secretary Luo to enter.

Yan Juanjuan was standing before the full-length window, hands behind her back, seemingly unaware of the sound of the opening door. Today, she gave Secretary Luo a completely different feeling than at the Northern Palace before, a much more commanding aura, appearing more like a businesswoman, possessing a shrewd mind, clear thinking, and sharp intuition.

"President Yan! Secretary Luo is here." The young woman whispered a report to Yan Juanjuan behind her.

"Hmm!" Yan Juanjuan turned around with no intention of approaching or speaking, leaving her secretary in an awkward position.

"President Yao!" Secretary Luo didn't mind and walked to Yan Juanjuan by himself, pulling out the chair across from the desk and sitting down. Since you weren't making the first move, he took the initiative, which was much like Yao Zheng's style. (To be continued.
