The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 1657 Madden

After a few seconds, Bain put down the communicator.

"Something happened in the South District!"

Bain said solemnly, but his eyes were looking in the direction of the kitchen. It was obvious that the 'herder' had not given up on his original idea.

You know, there is also a huge shortage of herders.

Otherwise, if something happens to the South District, the East District will not need support.

"I'll keep an eye on her."

Qin Ran answered like this.

Now that he has made a deal and received corresponding benefits, Kieran will naturally abide by his promise.

"Um."

Bain nodded, turned and left.

However, when he walked to the door, Bain suddenly turned around and asked: "Do you know what happened in the North District?"

"North District?"

"What happened in the North District?"

Qin Ran looked confused.

"nothing."

"I'll come back as soon as possible."

After Bain finished speaking, his steps no longer stopped and he quickly disappeared into the night.

Qin Ran looked at the other person's back and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Some things, Kieran thought, it would be better if only he or Mimosa knew about them.

Quite simply, Kieran still couldn't completely trust the other party.

In other words, Kieran could not completely trust the Herders organization.

Even though he is considered a good person from the current contact with this organization, the fact that the two parties are just transaction partners has not changed at all.

Once any conflict occurs, it's good to keep an extra trump card.

I picked up the newspaper at hand again and turned the TV to the evening news channel.

The newspapers tell the story of what happened yesterday.

Kieran glanced at it.

But his attention was basically on the TV.

It's a pity that 'Herder' did a good enough job that no information was leaked at all.

Or, it was covered up.

Kieran thought for a moment, picked up the phone and dialed his 'assistant'.

"I'm a reporter!"

"I have the right to interview!"

Amy took the microphone and wanted to rush into the banquet hall in front of her, but was blocked by two stout security guards. She was unable to take a step beyond her.

Faced with Amy's clamor, the two security guards were even more dismissive.

One of them said simply: "Ms. Amy, you are here precisely because of your status as a reporter."

"As for the interview?"

"Someone will tell you how to write it in a moment."

After saying that, the security guard returned to his expressionless look, and remained indifferent no matter whether Amy was scolding or messing around.

"Amy, calm down."

"This is not a place where we can mess around."

The assistant, cameraman, etc. who were following Amy pulled Amy to the corner and persuaded her in a low voice.

Amy wanted to retort.

However, in the end, he relaxed his shoulders in frustration.

"I know."

"But I'm not convinced!"

Amy said in a low voice.

"yes!"

"Why must we listen to them!"

The youngest man in the interview group immediately agreed, but as soon as he said these words, everyone in the interview group, including Amy, glared at him fiercely.

The young man who thought he would gain Amy's affection was stunned.

He had no idea what was going on.

"Why should you listen to them?"

"The owner here alone controls 90% of our company's shares."

"Is it enough?"

Amy shouted coldly.

Suddenly, the young man shrank his neck and stopped talking.

Looking at the young man's appearance, Amy sneered in her heart.

Amy could guess what the other party wanted to do just by seeing the way the other party looked at her.

That look full of disgusting desire is no different from the look in most men's eyes.

Similarly, in terms of ability, like most other men, they have high ambitions and low abilities, and they don't know what they are doing.

A guy who's been carried away by hormones!

Amy commented like this in her heart.

Then, strong unwillingness rose from the bottom of my heart again.

She really wanted to know what was going on.

Not only because of her insistence on being a journalist, but also because of a woman’s curiosity.

But Amy also knew the consequences of doing so.

Once discovered, she would pack up and leave again.

Moreover, all newspapers and TV stations in Ai City will not hire her.

She is well aware of the abilities of the owner here.

Can give up...

One side is dignity, the other side is life. Just when Amy was stuck in a decision, her cell phone rang.

When the latest pink flip phone was opened, Kieran's voice could be heard.

"Can you please help me investigate what major events are happening in the South District now?"

Plain, no ups and downs.

It's the same even when saying please.

However, Amy didn't dwell on it.

"I kind of know what's going on in the South Side."

"However, I was unable to obtain detailed information."

"Because the place where the incident happened was my boss's boss's home. Not only was I unable to go in and know the truth, but even for a while, I needed to write reports under the guidance of others - even more strict guidance than those of trainee reporters. "

Amy said simply.

"Then what are you going to do?"

Even through the receiver, Kieran could feel Amy's resentment.

"Do you need a 'full-time assistant'?"

Amy asked.

"unnecessary."

Kieran answered firmly.

"..."

"Don't you know what I want to do?"

Amy asked rhetorically.

"Know."

Kieran answered affirmatively again.

"Then aren't you going to give me some support?"

Amy asked tentatively again.

"not prepare."

"Because, even without me, you are planning to do this."

Qin Ran said slowly.

"do you know?"

"man……"

"They're all big pig's hooves!"

Amy growled into the phone.

Then, without giving Kieran a chance to speak again, Amy closed the phone.

Because she knew very well not to expect any support from that man.

They are equal trading relationships.

Don't try to rely on being a woman to gain some advantage.

Amy was not disgusted by this.

She was even happy to do so.

To some extent, she has been pursuing this equality.

Can……

Why is it that she is not used to it when it suddenly appears?

It must be that bastard's fault!

It was he who confused my concept of equality!

Moreover, I should not pay attention to him now, but do what I should do!

Amy glanced at the camera crew waiting quietly beside her, and walked quietly towards the back of the villa.

Amy is no stranger to this place.

The former wife of the owner here was one of her good friends, and she would be invited to parties here every now and then.

Until the wife thought she was plotting something against her husband and drew a clear line with her.

In fact, she only met the wife's husband once.

Moreover, he did not say more than three sentences.

As for what happened in the end?

Amy didn't know.

She only knew that about two months later, her former friend moved out of the villa, and then there was no news from him.

Amy had already gone through the sad period of losing that friend.

Fortunately for her now, every time her friend held a party, she would introduce this villa in detail, making her understand the place exceptionally well.

She clearly remembered that the villa had a side entrance.

Unlike the front and rear doors, which have security guards, the side door leads to the garage and video room.

Both the garage and the video room are the same as the interior of the villa.

To put it simply, entering the side door means entering the interior of the villa.

However, it is not easy to do this.

Because, at the side entrance of the villa, there are two guard dogs.

The entire small garden at the side entrance is the area where two guard dogs can move. It is precisely because of these two guard dogs that there are no security guards here.

As it happens, Amy is very familiar with the two guard dogs.

"Hey, Tom, Jerry."

Amy greeted softly.

The two guard dogs, who were alert a moment ago, immediately started wagging their tails.

Especially when Amy took out the ham sausage from her satchel, the tails of the two guard dogs waggled faster.

After feeding the ham sausage to the two guard dogs and touching the heads of the two guard dogs affectionately, Amy opened the side door.

She didn't choose the garage route.

Before, she had seen a car parked on the side of the road outside.

The garage must be full of cars.

And there is definitely no shortage of drivers on duty in the car.

Therefore, a video room is the best choice.

After walking through the long corridor, Amy entered the video room.

The entire audio-visual room is not big, about 50 square meters, and has only one sofa that is large enough for one person to lie down on. The ceiling is inlaid with diamond lights that look like stars. Even if the lights are turned off, these diamond lights exude a little brilliance. , just like real stars.

The four walls, except for the one facing the sofa which is a screen, the remaining three sides are covered with thick sound insulation cotton to ensure that the sound from the outside world and the room will not spread.

The door to enter the villa is behind the sofa.

Amy passed the sofa and was about to walk towards the door, but at this moment, the door was pushed open.

Amy was shocked.

Without thinking, I hid in front of the sofa.

The door is closed.

Amy heard the door close.

The lights in the video room were not turned on.

"You said it was just an experiment!"

"Why are people dying?"

A voice rang out.

Amy recognized this voice. It was the housekeeper of this villa, a middle-aged woman who looked capable and polite.

"Accident!"

"Accidents can happen at any time!"

"That's it this time!"

Another voice that Amy didn't recognize spoke.

"Do you know who died?"

The housekeeper said in a deep voice.

"who?"

"Is he some big shot?"

Another voice said nonchalantly.

"She is the most beloved daughter of the owner of this villa!"

"If he knows that it was your accident that killed this little daughter, what do you think will happen to you?"

The housekeeper said coldly.

"Are you threatening me?"

"Don't forget, you and I are a grasshopper on the same rope. You can't run away from me, and you can't run away either."

Another voice sneered.

"So, I need you to leave Ai City!"

"At least don't show up here again until the storm subsides..."

"money!"

"I need a lot of money to leave!"

Before the housekeeper could finish her words, she was interrupted by another voice.

"You go to the East District and hide in an unnamed hotel. Then, notify me and I will send you a sum of money as soon as possible."

The housekeeper said directly.

"good."

"I'll let you know when I find the place."

After the other party finished speaking, he opened the door of the video room and chose to leave.

The housekeeper didn't stay either.

After confirming that the two of them had left, Amy got up from the sofa.

Richard Madden’s little daughter is dead?

Amy had a look of surprise on her face.

Richard Madden is the boss behind the company where Amy works. In fact, many companies in Ai City are controlled by the Madden consortium.

As long as you look carefully, you will find that your basic necessities, food, clothing, housing and transportation in Ai City are inseparable from the Madden Consortium.

The leader of this consortium is Richard Madden.

A man who is a legend in his own right.

There are simply too many legends about each other.

Amy could casually rattle off no less than ten inspiring examples of how the other party created a wealth empire, but the one who was more familiar to others was his little daughter.

A child born with a golden key in her mouth is a typical spoiled 'princess'.

In the early years when the Madden consortium did not acquire various newspapers and magazines, this ‘bad princess’ could be seen making headlines every three days.

Amy insisted that the reason why the Madden Group purchased so many newspapers and magazines was to wipe the butt of its own ‘bad princess’.

Big news!

Big news!

Amy's eyes almost glowed.

However, this is not enough!

She also needed more detailed information.

So, she approached the door cautiously.

But when she opened the door, she froze on the spot.

A security guard was about to open the door.

The soundproofing here is so good that Amy didn't notice the security guard outside the room, and the security guard didn't notice Amy either.

The two looked at each other.

Just when Amy was about to turn around and run away, the security guard pulled out his gun.

Facing the muzzle of the gun, Amy raised her hands honestly.

"I can explain!"

Amy said this.

However, the security guard didn't pay attention at all, and pointed his gun at Amy to move up.

Amy, who was pointed at gunpoint, immediately became the center of attention after entering the lobby of the villa.

The owner of the villa, Richard Aiden, stopped talking to the person in front of him and looked at Amy.

Richard Ed's hair was a little gray and his body was a little fat, but he still looked elegant in a blue suit.

But that calm face with no expression made Amy feel even more stressed.

Especially when the other person looked at her carefully, she always felt like she couldn't breathe easily.

However, there was no feeling of suffocation.

Inexplicably, at this moment, Amy thought of Kieran.

Because she always felt suffocated in front of Kieran.

Moreover, along the way, Amy had already thought of her words. When facing Richard Aiden's gaze, she immediately said in a very organized manner: "I have no malicious intentions. I just sneaked in secretly to understand the truth of the matter." here."

"oh."

"Then what do you know?"

Richard Aiden asked.

The voice was calm, and it didn't sound like he had just lost his little daughter.

"I just heard the housekeeper discussing the death of your little daughter with someone in the video room. According to the conversation, they should be related to this matter."

Amy told the truth.

She wasn't being clever.

She was very aware of the man's tactics in front of her, and trying to be clever would only kill herself.

Hearing her words, Richard Aiden smiled.

He pointed behind Amy.

Amy turned her head, and her expression suddenly changed.

She saw a dead body.

There was no need to identify it, just one look and Amy was sure it belonged to the housekeeper.

Immediately, Amy felt confused.

"Her death has nothing to do with me!"

Amy tried to explain.

"certainly."

"From the moment you mentioned Kelly's death, I thought you were a lunatic."

Richard Madden turned around with a smile and raised his hand.

A young, beautiful girl wearing an evening dress came over and put her hand on Richard Madden's with a smile.

Kelly Madden!

Richard Madden’s youngest daughter!

But isn't she dead?

Why does it appear here?

What happened?

Amy was filled with doubts.

Then, about a few seconds later, under Amy's gaze, an even more incredible thing happened——

Richard Madden took out a small pistol and pointed it at Kelly Madden's forehead.

boom!
