Chapter 119: The first clues

Dai Shiya left the meeting room in a hurry.

The words of the man in black were still echoing in her ears, and a chill ran from her feet to her head.

She had seen the symbol on the document when she accidentally flipped through ancient books. It represented an ancient and mysterious organization.

This organization was secretive and ruthless. She didn't expect it to appear inside the Dai family.

She returned to the study, locked the door, spread the document on the table, and gently stroked the symbol with her fingertips.

The room was terribly quiet, with only the ticking of the wall clock hitting her nerves.

Outside the window, the setting sun cast the last ray of afterglow into the room, casting mottled light and shadows on the floor, just like her complicated mood at the moment.

Dai Shiya took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

She knew that now was not the time to panic. She had to find out the details of this organization as soon as possible and what exactly it was related to the Dai family.

Following the clues in the document, she began to investigate in depth.

This clue was like a thin silk thread, leading her into a maze full of unknowns.

Every step was taken carefully, for fear of alarming the enemy lurking in the dark.

She knew that if she was not careful, she would be doomed.

During the investigation, she found that an inconspicuous member of the family, Dai Zhicheng, had a close connection with this organization.

Dai Zhicheng was low-key and silent on weekdays, but he could always get the upper hand at critical moments, as if everything was under his control.

Dai Shiya did not alarm the snake, but pretended to approach Dai Zhicheng to show her friendliness.

Dai Zhicheng did not seem to be aware of her intentions, but showed great enthusiasm for her.

The two had a good conversation, and the atmosphere seemed harmonious, but there was actually an undercurrent.

At a dinner party, Dai Shiya quietly tested Dai Zhicheng.

Dai Zhicheng was elegant and well-spoken, without revealing any flaws.

However, when Dai Shiya inadvertently mentioned the mysterious symbol, Dai Zhicheng's eyes flashed with a trace of imperceptible panic.

It was this moment of gaffe that made Dai Shiya more certain of her judgment.

Dai Shiya continued to deal with Dai Zhicheng, disintegrating his psychological defenses step by step.

She was like a skilled hunter, patiently waiting for the prey to reveal a fatal flaw.

One night, Dai Shiya received an anonymous call: "Ms. Dai, be careful of your friends..."

The voice on the other end of the phone was low and hoarse, with a hint of warning.

Dai Shiya's hand holding the phone trembled slightly, and an ominous premonition came to her heart...

Dai Shiya hung up the phone, and a layer of haze shrouded her heart.

The warning from the anonymous phone made her realize that the enemy had begun to notice her investigation and turned its target to her friend, Wei Qing.

A strong sense of uneasiness swept over her, and she had to find Wei Qing as soon as possible to ensure her safety.

At the same time, new unstable factors in the family began to emerge.

Several important projects under the Dai Group had problems one after another, the capital chain was broken, the partners withdrew their capital, and the stock price fell all the way.

At the board meeting, shareholders accused Dai Shiya of poor management and asked her to resign.

Dai Shiya calmly responded to their doubts and proposed solutions.

In the next few days, Dai Shiya ran around to deal with various emergencies.

She kept spinning like a spinning top, exhausted physically and mentally.

Every place she went, she could feel the huge pressure, and the air around her seemed to become heavy, making her breathless.

In the meeting room, the shareholders' questions were like sharp needles, piercing her heart one by one; in the office, the piles of documents were like a mountain, pressing her head down; even when she returned home, she could not get a moment of peace, the phone rang one after another, and every call brought new problems.

In the continuous running around, Dai Shiya did not forget to investigate.

She quietly approached the suspicious family branch member, Dai Zhicheng, and frequently invited him to various social activities. During the toasts, she quietly obtained information.

Dai Zhicheng was still vigilant at first, but as the two people got to know each other better, his defenses gradually relaxed.

Finally, at a private dinner, Dai Shiya found a breakthrough.

She seemed to casually mention the information given to her by the man in black, and emphasized the mysterious symbols on it.

When Dai Zhicheng heard the words "mysterious symbol", his hand holding the wine glass trembled noticeably, and his face became a little unnatural.

Dai Shiya was secretly happy, but she did not immediately expose Dai Zhicheng. Instead, she continued to chat and laugh with him, observing his reaction calmly.

After confirming that he had exposed his true colors, Dai Shiya suddenly raised her voice, pointed at Dai Zhicheng and said, "Dai Zhicheng, you are the insider!"

Dai Zhicheng's face suddenly changed, and he wanted to explain in panic, but Dai Shiya had already obtained enough evidence to expose his connection with the mysterious organization one by one.

The people around were in an uproar, and they all cast contemptuous eyes on Dai Zhicheng.

Dai Shiya's decisiveness and wit won the admiration of everyone, and bursts of exclamations broke out at the scene.

Dai Zhicheng was taken away by the family bodyguards, and the dinner ended hastily.

The crowd dispersed, and Dai Shiya stood alone in front of the French window, looking at the bright night view outside the window, but a complicated look flashed in her eyes.

At this time, Wei Qing came over and patted her shoulder gently: "Shiya, are you okay?"

Dai Shiya turned around and forced a smile: "I'm fine. It's just..." She paused, her eyes fell on the back of Wei Qing, and her face suddenly changed, "Be careful!"

Before Dai Shiya finished speaking, a dark shadow rushed out from behind Wei Qing, holding a shining dagger in his hand, and stabbed Wei Qing's back.

At the critical moment, Dai Shiya pushed Wei Qing away violently, and the dagger rubbed her arm, leaving a blood mark.

The severe pain made her gasp, but she didn't care about treating the wound. She immediately grabbed the attacker's arm with her backhand and twisted it hard.

The attacker groaned and the dagger fell to the ground.

Dai Shiya took the opportunity to kick him in the chest and knocked him to the ground.

Wei Qing was still in shock, and hurried forward to help Dai Shiya up: "Shiya, are you okay? You are injured!"

Dai Shiya covered her wound, her face pale, but she tried to be calm: "I'm fine, just a minor injury." Blood flowed through her fingers and dripped onto the smooth floor, which was shocking.

"Who sent you?" Dai Shiya asked sternly, her eyes were like torches, staring directly at the attacker lying on the ground.

The attacker clenched his teeth and said nothing.

"Don't say it?" Dai Shiya sneered, picked up the dagger on the ground, and put it against the attacker's throat, "If you don't say it, I'll let you taste the taste of this dagger."

The cold blade touched his skin, and the attacker felt the threat of death, and his body trembled involuntarily.

He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but swallowed it back.

"It seems that you won't cry until you see the coffin." Dai Shiya

"I'll tell you! I'll tell you!" The attacker finally collapsed and shouted, "It's... the second young master sent me here!" "The

second young master?" Dai Shiya and Wei Qing looked at each other and were shocked at the same time.

The second young master of the Dai family, Dai Zhiyuan's younger brother, Dai Zhiming.

He has always been at odds with Dai Shiya and has always made things difficult for her. I didn't expect that he would send someone to assassinate Wei Qing.

"Why did he do this?" Wei Qing asked, her tone full of confusion and anger.

"I don't know! I'm just following orders!" The attacker hurriedly explained, "The second young master only asked me to kill you, and I don't know anything else!"

Dai Shiya looked at the attacker's frightened eyes and knew that he was not lying.

She put away the dagger and signaled the bodyguard to take the attacker away.

"It seems that we have another enemy." Dai Shiya looked into the distance, with both determination and a hint of helplessness in her eyes.

The air around them seemed to solidify, full of solemnity.

Back in the study, Wei Qing and Dai Shiya sorted out the new information together.

Wei Qing was flipping through the documents with a frown on her face, while Dai Shiya was thinking quietly beside her.

The two of them worked in perfect harmony. They could understand each other's meaning with just a look or a gesture.

The room was so quiet that only the sound of flipping papers could be heard. The warm atmosphere between the two of them was in sharp contrast to the tension in the outside world.

"Shiya, what are you going to do?" Wei Qing put down the documents in her hand and turned her gaze to Dai Shiya.

Dai Shiya raised her head,

"Do you have a plan?" Wei Qing asked.

Dai Shiya smiled slightly and did not answer directly. Instead, she picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number: "Hello, it's me..."

A respectful voice came from the other end of the phone: "Ms. Dai, what can I do for you?"

"Help me check Dai Zhiming's recent movements, especially..." Dai Shiya paused, and her tone became cold, "His connection with the mysterious organization. "

Dai Shiya was not in a hurry to make Dai Zhicheng's crimes public, but chose to detonate this blockbuster bomb at the family's regular meeting.

In the meeting room, the atmosphere was solemn, and the opposition was aggressive, just like the dark clouds before the storm, depressing and suffocating.

They took turns to question Dai Shiya's leadership ability, and their words were sharp, like a sharp blade, pointing directly at her vital points.

"Dai Shiya, do you have anything else to say?" A family elder asked aggressively, his hawk-like eyes staring at Dai Shiya, as if he wanted to see through her.

Dai Shiya looked calm, with a sneer at the corner of her mouth: "Of course I have something to say." She slowly took out several documents from the folder and placed them on the table, "Everyone, please take a look at these things first. "

In the document, there is evidence of Dai Zhicheng's collusion with the mysterious organization, as well as a detailed record of his covert manipulation of Dai Group's projects and profiteering from it.

As the evidence was presented to everyone one by one, the voices of the opposition gradually weakened, and their faces became increasingly ugly.

The originally noisy meeting room was now silent, with only the sound of flipping papers and everyone's rapid breathing.

"Now, do you have any questions? "Dai Shiya looked around at everyone, her tone was firm and unquestionable.

The opponents looked at each other, speechless.

They did not expect that Dai Shiya actually had such solid evidence.

Dai Shiya's methods shocked them and made them fearful.

The atmosphere in the originally tense meeting room gradually eased.

Dai Shiya's vigorous and resolute style of doing things, as well as the wisdom and courage she showed, won the recognition of family members.

Her voice in the family has been significantly improved, and the voices of opposition have gradually disappeared.

In the process of interrogating Dai Zhicheng, Dai Shiya obtained a crucial piece of information: a mysterious person code-named "Nightingale".

This name, like a flash of lightning, cut through the fog in Dai Shiya's mind, allowing her to vaguely glimpse the core of the conspiracy.

But at the same time, she also felt that a greater crisis was approaching.

"Nightingale..." Dai Shiya repeated the name in a low voice, her fingertips tapping the table lightly, making a crisp sound, tapping her nerves again and again.

Her eyes fell on the window, night fell, the lights came on, the hustle and bustle of the city was swallowed up by the night, everything seemed exceptionally quiet, but also harboured murderous intent.

"It seems that the good show has just begun." Dai Shiya murmured to herself, she picked up the phone and dialed a number, "A Kun, help me check..."

A low voice came from the other end of the phone: "Ms. Dai, what's the matter?"

"'Nightingale'." Dai Shiya said word by word, her tone was cold, as if it came from the depths of hell.
