    Book Chapter 668: A Chilling Conjecture (Update 1)

    Early morning: the sun still lingered among the clouds, its rays tinged with a hint of crimson.

    A cool autumn breeze brushed against Xiao Yu’s cheek like a chilly glove.

    Savoring the breakfast prepared by Mu Qingwu herself, his heart felt warm.

    “You’re all grown up yet still eating like a child, getting food all over your face!”

    Seated on the curb, Mu Qingwu looked at her little brother devouring his breakfast, her gentle expression outshining even the morning sun.

    Like a caring nanny, she dabbed his messy mouth with a tissue…

    “Hehe.”

    Xiao Yu ate his porridge and side dishes, intermittently flashing mischievous winks and smiles.

    His eyes remained fixed on Mu Qingwu, unwilling to look away.

    Even though today Xiao Yu’s lady wore only a plain T-shirt, jeans, and canvas shoes, her graceful curves were breathtaking, almost criminally alluring.

    Coupled with her flawless beauty and skin as white as jade,

    she seemed otherworldly—a true earthly fairy!

    “Idiot, when will you ever get enough of this view?”

    Her tone was teasingly reproachful, yet the sparkle in her eyes delighted her little brother, clear and radiant as morning dew.

    Her heart bloomed with joy.

    She ribbed him with her trademark quip: ‘A man plays dead for his confidant, while a woman transforms herself for the one who adores her…’

    Not far off, Wang Dong and the members of Team Two watched the young couple’s overt display of affection, their faces twisted in discontent.

    “Damn it.”

    Wang Dong grumbled to his subordinates, “Back in my day, I was far more impressive—plenty of girls admired me… He’s just too young.”

    His team exchanged sidelong glances, eyeing their boastful leader.

    “Really? So our leader’s wife is beautiful?” one team member inquired.

    Wang Dong: …

    “Or perhaps she’s rich?” another joked.

    Wang Dong: …

    “Maybe she’s gentle and understanding?” a third teased mockingly.

    Wang Dong: …

    “I heard that people with big faces can’t use touch-screen phones because their smiling might accidentally hang up the call. True or not?” a fourth team member chuckled.

    Damn it… Wang Dong glared fiercely at his hapless subordinates.

    He nearly wanted to blast them all with a submachine gun.

    Fuming inwardly, he maintained his big-leader persona and let it slide.

    Yet, watching the couple’s morning display of affection, he thought, really?

    It made him want to take them down—a thought any National Security agent might secretly share.

    But when he compared their strength, that idea was quickly abandoned.

    No one in all of Team Two could even come close to matching them!

    A new thought suddenly struck him.

    All of Team Two stood in stunned silence, watching the young couple.

    They recalled how, not long ago, Xiao Yu single-handedly broke through Bremen.

    Why?

    He was terrifying in a way that made one’s heart tremble.

    Yet, he radiated a brilliance like the blazing midday sun.

    Everyone seemed to sense an indescribable aura around him.

    It was like beholding a pristine sanctuary—impossible to look away from!

    “Better head home soon.”

    Inside the car, Mu Qingwu waved goodbye to her brother.

    “Mm.”

    Xiao Yu nodded resolutely.

    He stared at the departing business car, lost in thought for a long moment.

    “That’s enough action for now.”

    Wang Dong, with a mix of envy and resentment, remarked, “Only you get to have a wife, huh?”

    “Just a moment ago, a super handsome guy caught my eye. We shared a long, lingering glance,” Xiao Yu added.

    Then he withdrew his gaze and told his elder brother, “No one is going to shatter this calm.”

    “Really?”

    Wang Dong, surprised, stroked his scruffy beard and boasted, “Not nearly as handsome as you claim, I’d wager.”

    “Until your hand gets tired…”

    Xiao Yu smiled, “I just slowly set the mirror down.”

    Wang Dong: …

    I mean, little brother, aren’t you unafraid of facing reality?

    Xiao Yu shot a disdainful look at Wang Dong and said, “Let’s focus on the case.”

    Mu Qingwu came over with the meal—it was just a small interlude.

    Soon, everyone dove back into their busy tasks…

    Team Two members split up to pursue the ‘Five Clues’ in a comprehensive search of Bincheng.

    First clue: the sources of cement and oil drums—the materials and tools used to hide bodies within cement.

    Second clue: a complete check of sea-going vessels, focusing on departure times. Abandoned bodies are unlikely to be dumped during the day; it’s more likely at night. Nearshore departures are few.

    Third clue: major hospitals. Organ transplant surgeries aren’t performed at every hospital, nor can any ordinary doctor handle them. Typically, it requires a chief or expert surgeon. How many such doctors are there in Bincheng’s medical system?

    Fourth clue: patients in need of organ transplants. Organs don’t just materialize out of thin air. With the state’s strict crackdown on illegal organ trade to prevent crime and black market chains, every transplant is rigorously documented. If a patient suddenly recovers or receives an unrecorded transplant, where did that organ come from?

    Fifth clue: the most crucial of all.

    Nineteen victims, nineteen bodies each missing a large number of organs.

    Autopsies confirmed that all these cases occurred within two years.

    Most ordinary people couldn’t fathom the magnitude of this.

    To put it bluntly:

    An organ transplant represents a major surgery.

    Each body was missing at least five organs.

    Nineteen victims…

    This means that within two years, a criminal gang carried out nearly a hundred major surgeries.

    Do you understand what that entails?

    No single doctor could master even one complex organ transplant in a lifetime.

    Performing multiple transplants is simply beyond any one doctor’s capacity.

    Even if you (Wang Dong) were an absolute genius, it wouldn’t be feasible.

    Moreover, these surgeries are extremely dangerous.

    They also require assistants with exceptional medical skills.

    In short…

    There must be a massive medical team working for these criminals.

    And within that team, doctors proficient in various transplant techniques are indispensable.

    One, several, or even many surgeons are involved.

    What kind of hospital or medical team could pull this off?

    Frankly speaking,

    even ordinary hospitals might not afford to hire such a team.

    Understand?

    And do you know the annual salary for a doctor at this level?

    They start at no less than 500,000, and top earners can make millions a year.

    With such capabilities, do you think these doctors would resort to crime?

    Unless they want even more money or vast wealth.

    Or could it be that the criminals themselves are a group of doctors?
