”I'm not entirely sure, but I think someone else is watching Hua Village apart from the people of the Black Vatican. It's the reason why they didn't get too aggressive on me. Otherwise, I would have been dead now,” Zhang Xiaohou admitted sternly.
Mo Fan was stunned, he immediately looked at Liu Ru.
Liu Ru softly nodded and said, ”It must be the same person who gave me the blood serums.”
”Then you've made the right choice to pretend that you were suffering from amnesia. The Black Vatican would have to send out Blue Deacons to kill you, but since the plan related to the rain is their first priority, the Blue Deacons would not show up so easily, as they had to be even more cautious...” Mo Fan nodded.
That being said, Mo Fan almost broke into a sweat after reevaluating the situation.
Mo Fan did speculate that Zhang Xiaohou was putting up an act as a disguise, but he never thought so many people were actually watching him!
”So what did you see?” Su Xiaoluo finally ran out of patience.
Now that they had gotten rid of the spy Hong Jun, Zhang Xiaohou could finally tell them the truth.
”Mm, what did you see?” Mo Fan's voice sank.
Zhang Xiaohou had endured such hardships just to protect the information. It must be extremely important, and might be related to this huge conspiracy looming over the city!
”He was wearing a mask, I couldn't recognize him, but the people of Black Vatican called him Great Deacon Hu Jin,” said Zhang Xiaohou.
”Great Deacon Hu Jin?” Mo Fan was confused.
”He's in charge of all the Blue Deacons of Black Vatican, Salan's right-hand man. He must have played an extremely important role in this conspiracy...” Fang Gu slowly walked out from the shadows and glanced at the trembling villagers coldly.
”How do you know?” asked Liu Ru.
”I had contact with the Black Vatican before. I purposely left one of their people alive, to learn who was trying to hunt me down. The man was a tough one, so I had no choice but to threaten him with the Undeath, forcing him to spill the beans,” replied Fang Gu.
”But the Black Vatican is very strict about keeping their identities a secret. If that woman was still alive, we might be able to learn more information,” said Liu Ru.
”Forget it, for something as huge as this, the Blue Deacons are only in charge of a small part of the whole thing. They won't know the details. If we really want to know what their next move is, we'll have to find this Great Deacon Hu Jin,” said Fang Gu confidently.
”Houzi, why were they trying to kill you? You didn't even see his face,” said Mo Fan in confusion.
”I heard his voice, and somehow it felt slightly familiar, but I can't remember who the person is...” said Zhang Xiaohou.
”Familiar?”
”Yeah, I'm pretty sure that I've heard the voice in Bo City. It was raining quite heavily that day, but if I can surely identify the person if I can hear his voice again!” said Zhang Xiaohou in a serious tone.
Mo Fan frowned as his breathing intensified.
It turned out that someone from the Black Vatican was right around them!
”I believe he knows me, too. He must be worried that I would recognize his voice, thus he immediately sent his men to silence me. Even after I reached Hua Village, he still asked Hong Jun to spy on me. If I did something that would pose the slightest threat of revealing his identity, he would eliminate me and the people around me at once...” said Zhang Xiaohou.
