Chapter: 4122
Klavdiya took out a flash drive from her pocket that looked like lip balm and said, "This is a special ultraviolet light flashlight with a specific wavelength different from the usual verification UV light. It's hard to buy on the market, and when paired with a special medicine, only reveals its effect under this UV light. They use this medicine after selecting their target, painting a mark at the entrance of the selected target's house."
"This is a rule set by various gangs to avoid conflicts between each other," she explained. "Each gang has a limited number of marks that can be painted within a certain time frame. If there are signs from one gang on someone's doorstep and the number doesn't exceed their limit, it means this gang has already selected this target and is waiting for an opportunity to strike."
Klavdiya looked at Ye Chen and said, "When I sent you that message, it was my first time discovering Guo Lei's mark at Li Auntie's doorstep."
Ye Chen asked again, "Why did you contact me?"
Klavdiya explained, "Because Xiao Fen-sister always talks about you. In her eyes, you're almost invincible, so I secretly checked your phone number using her phone and wanted to ask for your help."
Klavdiya nodded slightly and asked, "Have you told Xiao Fen about this?"
"No," Klavdiya shook her head, speaking seriously. "Guo Lei's people are already keeping an eye on her. Although they haven't taken action yet, it's because they're waiting for the right moment to strike. But if she leaves Vancouver now, it will only hasten their plans. So I've been following Xiao Fen-sister around these past two days and have called in a few fake police reports at night to draw in the patrol cars and buy some time. It's not a long-term solution, though."
Ye Chen furrowed his brow, recalling Guo Lei's words to Li Xiao-fen, and asked, "According to what you're saying, Guo Lei is planning to take action against Xiao Fen tonight?"
Klavdiya said, "Guo Lei has intentions towards Xiao Fen-sister. He's been trying to persuade her to accept his pursuit, coming by every day or two. But Xiao Fen-sister has consistently refused him, and based on my understanding of him, he should be about to lose his patience soon."
Ye Chen listened and nodded slightly, seeming to think that Li Xiao-fen's good deeds had reaped a good harvest thanks to Klavdiya's efforts. If it weren't for Klavdiya's plan to protect her, she would probably have already been kidnapped by them.
Thinking of this, Ye Chen looked at Klavdiya and spoke seriously, "Thank you, Klavdiya. Xiao Fen might have already met with disaster if not for your intervention."
Klavdiya spoke sincerely, "If not for Li Auntie and Xiao Fen-sister taking me in, I would probably be without a place to stay right now..."
Ye Chen looked at the fake burn scars on her face and asked, "You're pretending to have been burned so badly because you're worried they'll target you?"
"Yes..." Klavdiya nodded, saying, "In this line of work in Vancouver, it's not just Guo Lei's family that's involved. There are a few other gangs doing the same thing. I can be sure that Guo Lei won't do anything to me, but I can't guarantee that the other gangs won't either. So, pretending to have been burned is much safer – no one will take an interest in a woman with half her face 'seriously burned'..."
As she spoke, she seemed anxious and turned to Ye Chen, saying, "Mr. Ye, you'd better take Xiao Fen-sister to the airport right away! As long as you get her out of Canada, Guo Lei won't be able to do anything to her anymore!"
Ye Chen smiled coldly and shook his head, asking her, "How many people are in this Italian gang?"
Klavdiya said, "They have a huge number of people, at least several hundred. As an individual, you're no match for them..."
Ye Chen snickered and spoke softly, "Several hundred... is still a bit short, but better than nothing!"
Klavdiya thought Ye Chen didn't understand her words and hastily repeated herself, saying, "Mr. Ye, I'm saying they have at least several hundred people, which is the most conservative estimate. If you include some with connections, it's possible they exceed a thousand..."
Ye Chen nodded, saying, "If we can gather enough to reach a thousand, it'll still be of some use."
Klavdiya hurriedly said, "Mr. Ye, as an individual, you're definitely not capable of taking them on... and during the day, they'll probably tone down their behavior anyway. If you take Xiao Fen-sister away from here, they should dare not cause trouble. As long as we get to the airport, we can escape the danger, but if we wait until night, it's too late..."
Ye Chen smiled slightly and spoke casually, "No big deal, I didn't plan on taking her away anyway. It's easy to leave, but there's no reason why bad people should appear near your home and then make you abandon everything and run away? That's not our Chinese way of doing things. Our Chinese way is that if someone doesn't bother me, I won't bother them. If they do bother me, I'll take action."
Klavdiya felt her brain wasn't working well enough.
She said this out loud, just to persuade Ye Chen to hurry up and take Li Xiao-fen away.
Guo Lei's methods may be ruthless, but they won't be effective outside of Canada. JrNovels.com
