Chapter 267 Hidden Message
"What's wrong?" Fu Jin asked Jiang Yue the moment he saw her grim face.
"She said something that is making me confuse," she answered before sitting across Fu Jin. They were currently in the living room of the villa and Fu Jin was busy reading some documents.
The latter insisted on working at home and accompanying Jiang Yue after the fire incident happened. Fu Jin is convinced that Li Qiang is after Jiang Yue's life so he wanted to always stay with her.
"What?"
"She said my mother is alive." Jiang Yue said.
"But... that's..."
"Impossible? I know." she shrugged.
"But you believe her?" Fu Jin asked.
"I'm only doubtful. That's all. I still want to confirm her words." she answered before asking Fu Jin to pass the box to her.
After Jia Yan left, Jiang Yue decided that it is best if she finished dealing with Wu Minxia first before checking out the contents of the box.
Fu Jin immediately passed her the box and looked at her, he also wanted to know what is inside of this box.
Jiang Yue then carefully opened the box and decided to first open the folded paper. It was a paper folded as an airplane.
She meticulously unfolded the paper and frowned when she saw that what was written were nothing but jumbled letters and numbers as well as symbols that do not make any sense to Jiang Yue.
"Weird... I think... I think they are the same with the one written on my mother's journal." she mumbled before passing the paper to Fu Jin.
Then she opened the photo album which only consisted of two photos.
Jiang Yue narrowed her eyes at the first photo. It was clearly Wang Ruo with a group of men and women smiling towards the camera. They are outside of what seemed to be a restaurant. Then the second photo was still with Wang Ruo. However this time there were only two women in the photo. One was a blond tall woman and the other one was Wang Ruo who was holding a long firearm inside a shooting range. She was not smiling and was clearly annoyed at the woman beside her.
"Hey, do you know anything about Jia Yan's father?" she asked Fu Jin, her eyes still glued at the photos.
"Bei Ye just gave me the information about the Jia family." Fu Jin answered. "His father was a businessman while his mother was an actress."
"However, his father was known to be a transnational criminal organization member that ships guns illegally all over the world. But this was not proven. It was just a speculation."
Jiang Yue turned silent at Fu Jin's words. Organized crimes? Why would her mother accompany someone like that? Her grandfather clearly told her that she was in the military and was not working at the field.
So why would she have pictures of herself holding a gun?
She remembered that Li Qiang was also a well-known member of an organized crime group. Does that mean that Li Qiang's hatred toward Jiang Yue and her mother was because Wang Ruo and Li Qiang were enemies before?
After realizing that she is getting nowhere, Jiang Yue decided to turn on the voice recorder.
A static was heard as she hit the replay button. After a few minutes, a croaky voice was said,
"Miss Jiang, do forgive me for doing this. But I want to see you and tell something important. I believe you need to know something about your mother. You might find this funny and doubt my words, however, Miss Jiang not only did I made a thorough research about you, but I also made sure to check out every detail of the past so I am sure that the person that I am talking about is your mother. Miss Jiang trust is very important in this message and I want you to trust me. The folded paper contains a secret message that only your mother can decipher. However, I think that you also have the skills to do this. Miss Jiang anyone could read the message and listen to this recording but I believe that only you and your mother can see the hidden meaning of the numbers and letters. The paper contains a number and an address. Call that number and use that address."
Silence.
Jiang Yue stared at Fu Jin as blood started to rush in her body. She widened her eyes and decided to replay the recording.
Jiang Yue's mind started to work on its own, automatically analyzing every detail of the recording. Every word of the message, every letter, and number from the paper starts to dance in her mind.
Her hands started to sweat as her heart started to race. She just realized something!
The recording itself contains a hidden message!
