Chapter 653 The Picnic Ends, a Murder Suddenly Occurs
The weekend sunshine was just the right temperature, neither too hot nor too cold.
The picnic area on the golf course was already bustling with activity.
Ye Haoxuan arrived with a group of women, and his brothers also arrived one after another, making it a large group of people.
With her camera in hand, Yue Huizhen kept snapping photos of the lively moments, a smile always on her lips.
She wore a simple dress, her long hair flowing over her shoulders, and she still had the same lively look as when she was interviewed years ago.
Qiu Ti squatted beside the picnic mat, carefully arranging snacks and fruits with quick and efficient movements.
She remained as hardworking and sensible as ever, frequently offering water to those around her.
Marry and Jimmy sat together, chatting quietly about business matters.
She has a keen business sense, and even during a picnic, she doesn't forget to keep an eye on industry trends for Ye Haoxuan.
Mona, dressed in a gorgeous sundress, was playfully chatting and laughing with Miho Sasaki.
The two are best friends, and they always have endless things to talk about when they get together. They both act with a certain unrestrainedness.
Sandy sat next to Ye Haoxuan, holding a document in her hand, and occasionally whispered to him.
She had just finished processing a police-related legal document for Ye Haoxuan, and her logic remained impeccable.
Sun Keyi, meanwhile, carefully took care of the children with gentleness and patience.
Da Fangting and Xiao Fangting sat side by side, quietly watching the lively scene before them, their demeanor gentle and graceful.
MOON and the Queen of Flowers huddled together, their eyes warily scanning their surroundings, remaining on guard at all times.
Both of them are combat-ready, and even during their leisure time, they never forget to protect everyone's safety.
Serena sat on the other side of Ye Haoxuan, gently leaning on his shoulder, gentle and serene.
Shui Ling, Tony, and Crow stood not far away, whispering about the surveillance situation of the remnants of Dongxing.
The three of them formed an "iron triangle" to defend against Dongxing, and they never let their guard down.
The brothers sat together, drinking the good wine that Jimmy had brought and chatting about the logistics park.
Robinson and Zhuo Kele were discussing the details of signing the agreement tomorrow, their faces full of anticipation.
Feng Yuxiu remained as composed as ever, sitting in the corner, his gaze occasionally falling on Ye Haoxuan.
He always remembered that his life belonged to Ye Haoxuan, and he was always ready to serve.
Xiao Ma, holding a wine glass, chatted with Qiu Gang'ao about firearms training, their tone congenial.
The seven siblings of Tian Yangsheng were scattered around the court, quietly protecting everyone's safety.
The children ran and played on the lawn, flying kites and playing games, their laughter filling the air.
Ye Haoxuan sat in the middle, looking at his family and brothers around him, feeling a sense of peace in his heart.
This kind of life, with its warmth and sense of belonging, is exactly what he wants.
Everyone enjoyed the delicious food and chatted, creating a lively and warm atmosphere.
Le Huizhen, holding a camera, walked up to Ye Haoxuan and said with a smile, "Haoxuan, come on, let's take a group photo."
Ye Haoxuan nodded, put his arms around Serena and Sandy beside him, and smiled.
Others also crowded around, jostling in front of the camera, resulting in a lively group photo.
The sunlight shone on everyone's face, warm and dazzling.
And so, everyone played from morning until afternoon, and only gradually packed up their things as the sun set.
The brothers volunteered to help, quickly and efficiently packing up the picnic mat and snack boxes.
The women, with their children in tow, slowly walked towards the parking area, chatting and laughing.
"I had a really great time today. Let's get together again next time," Yue Huizhen said with a smile.
“Great! Let’s celebrate properly once the logistics park is officially operational,” Ye Haoxuan replied with a smile.
One by one, the cars boarded the vehicles and drove away from the golf course, heading towards the city.
Ye Haoxuan sat in the car, and Salina leaned on his shoulder, gradually becoming sleepy.
He gently patted her back, his eyes tender, a faint smile on his lips.
Just then, his phone suddenly rang urgently.
It broke the tranquility inside the car and interrupted this pleasant moment.
Ye Haoxuan frowned, carefully helped Serena up, and picked up his phone.
The caller ID showed it was a police number, and his heart skipped a beat; he had a bad feeling.
He immediately pressed the answer button, his tone instantly becoming serious.
"I am Ye Haoxuan, what's the matter?"
On the other end of the phone, a police officer's hurried and tense voice came through.
"Inspector Ye! Something terrible has happened! A murder has occurred!"
"A male corpse was found near an abandoned warehouse in Causeway Bay; the manner of his death was bizarre!"
Ye Haoxuan's face instantly darkened, and his aura turned icy.
Causeway Bay, an area they were closely monitoring, was the site of a murder.
Send me the exact location on my phone, and I'll be there right away.
His tone was firm and unambiguous, exuding the aura of a senior inspector.
"Yes, Inspector Ye! We've already set up a perimeter and are waiting for you!"
After hanging up the phone, Ye Haoxuan immediately took out his phone and sent a message to A-MOON.
She was told to take Serena and the other women home first, while she went to the crime scene.
Serena was woken up by her phone ringing. Seeing Ye Haoxuan's serious expression, she quickly asked, "Haoxuan, what's wrong?"
"There's been a murder in Causeway Bay, I need to go to the scene," Ye Haoxuan said softly, his tone apologetic.
"Then be careful and pay attention to safety," Serena said gently without asking any further questions.
She knew that Ye Haoxuan was not only the emperor of the triad, but also a senior inspector, and solving cases was his duty.
Ye Haoxuan nodded, gently patted her head, his eyes tender yet firm.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. Wait for me to come back."
Halfway there, Ye Haoxuan asked the driver to stop and switched to his police car.
He changed into a police uniform, and his entire demeanor completely changed, transforming him from a triad emperor into a dignified senior inspector.
With flashing lights and sirens blaring, the police sped off toward the abandoned warehouse in Causeway Bay.
On the way, Ye Haoxuan called the police again to ask for more details.
"Inspector Ye, the deceased's identity is currently unknown. He has multiple stab wounds, with the fatal wound in his chest."
"There weren't many clues left at the scene, only a peculiar fragment of a dagger."
Ye Haoxuan frowned, listened carefully, and silently sorted through the clues in his mind.
Special dagger fragments? It seems the killer is no ordinary person; perhaps they came prepared.
Moreover, Causeway Bay is their controlled area. The fact that the perpetrator dared to commit the crime here means either that he was unaware of the situation or that he was deliberately provoking them.
He immediately dialed Tony's number again, his tone serious.
“Tony, there has been a murder near the abandoned warehouse in Causeway Bay. Have Shui Ling and Crow investigate immediately.”
"Check if any strangers have been loitering in Causeway Bay recently, especially the remnants of the Tung Sing gang."
"Also, have A-Moon arrange for a few of his men to quietly go to the perimeter of the scene to provide support, without revealing their identities."
Tony's tone instantly turned serious: "Okay, Brother Xuan, I'll arrange it right away, without delay."
