The Amazing Son-in-Law [The Charismatic Charlie Wade] (Chinese name) Chapter: 7021

When he saw the call from the Police Director, a dreadful thought crossed his mind: his eldest brother must have died, and the Metropolitan Police Department was at the Dome to deliver the terrible news.

He answered the phone, trying to sound curious. “Mr. Watanabe, why are you calling me so late?”

The police chief took a deep breath to steady himself before responding, “Mr. Mitsui, I have some bad news for you.”

Mitsui Yoshiyasu kept up the act. He quickly asked, “Mr. Watanabe, could it be that something happened to my father in Oshino Hakkai?!”

“No…” the police chief lied. “It was your brother, Mr. Yoshitaka Mitsui. He was killed in the dome.”

“What?!” Mitsui Yoshiyasu exclaimed, pretending to be heartbroken. “You’re saying my brother was killed?! How can that be?! You must be lying!”

Inside, the police chief thought, “Yes, I am lying. Your brother asked me to do this. Do you really not know, or are you just acting?”

He sighed deeply, realizing the gravity of the situation. “I’m very sorry, Mr. Mitsui. Your brother was indeed killed. There were many gang members and possibly professional killers at the dome tonight. They assassinated Tawanna Sweet, and your brother was one of the victims.”

Mitsui Yoshiyasu pressed his hand to his heart, feeling it race at the police director’s words. But his racing heart was not from grief; it was from excitement.

Still, he had to keep up his performance. With a shaky voice, he said, “How could this happen? My brother was so young and had so many bodyguards around him. How could…?”

Something unexpected happened to him.

Without waiting for the police chief to respond, Mitsui Yoshitaka quickly asked, “Mr. Watanabe, is my niece okay?! I heard she went to the event with my brother tonight. Is she in danger?”

The police chief was taken aback for a moment. He wasn’t sure how to answer.

However, being a police chief, he was trained to think quickly. He realized that Mitsui Yoshitaka might have misunderstood the situation and was worried about his brother Mitsui Yoshiyasu. So, he decided to deliver the bad news bluntly.

With a heavy heart, he said, “Mr. Mitsui, I’m sorry to inform you that your niece has also been killed.”

Mitsui Yoshiyasu almost laughed at the shocking news, but he quickly turned his expression to one of sorrow. “Oh no! How could this happen? Xinmei is only in her twenties… How can these killers be so cruel?”

The police chief scratched his nose and replied, “I’m very sorry, Mr. Mitsui. I wanted to let you know personally, but what happened at the Dome tonight is quite serious, and I have a lot to take care of. I can’t stay and talk longer.”
