Chapter 421: The Assassination Begins

With the Global Martial Arts Competition entering the finals, coupled with Chen Ye's performance against the sky, the eyes of the global martial arts community are focused on Jerusalem, waiting for the final martial arts feast to begin.

Because Chen Ye strongly crushed and beat Muto Shinobu in the semifinals, he has become the favorite to win the championship from the dark horse at the beginning.

In the survey statistics of dark web forums, Chen Ye's vote ratio for winning the championship exceeded ninety.

On top of that, the bookmaker has made a rare move to close the betting market for the final, no longer accepting any bets.

Everything indicates that Chen Ye will win the championship of this year's Global Martial Arts Competition!

Behind the scenes, however, there is an undercurrent.

In order to ensure Chen Ye's safety, Cang Jizi, the head of Kunlun, Chu Xuan, the head of Kyushu, Qi Wu, the head of the Qi family, and Gu Qiong, the head of the Gu family, took turns on duty.

The so-called duty is not to protect Chen Ye in the room, but the four of them take turns to guard the roof of the Marriott Hotel, ensuring that any stranger entering the hotel is under their surveillance.

After Chen Ye learned about this, he was very moved in his heart.

After all, the four of Cangjizi can be regarded as Taishan Beidou in the martial arts world of the Xia Kingdom, but for Chen Ye's safety, they played the role of bodyguards.

In the following two days, the Marriott Hotel was calm, except for the members of the Xia Guo Martial Arts delegation and the North American Martial Arts delegation, only the hotel staff appeared in the hotel.

On the afternoon of the third day, Chen Ye received a call from the Nordic princess Cadele.

"Mr. Chen, do you have time tonight?"

After the phone was answered, Cadel was the first to ask.

Chen Ye answered first and then asked: "I'm at the hotel at night, Cardier, do you have anything to do?" ”

"Mr. Chen, that's right, I would like to invite you to dinner. Well, although Jerusalem is not a Western city in a sense, it is also a city of half the West. I'm also half a host, so I should have a banquet for you. After all, when I went to Yanjing, you invited me to dinner. ”

Caddell stated the purpose of the call.

Chen Ye pondered for a moment and said, "Cadele, I understand your kindness, so I don't need dinner." ”

"Why??"

Cadelle asked with a stiff smile on her face.

"In order to make sure that I can stay fit for the finals, the delegation asked me to stay in the hotel until the finals began."

Chen Ye hesitated for a moment, and finally did not tell Cadele the truth.

According to the intelligence collected by the Shouxia organization, many people infiltrated Jerusalem, including many powerful God Realm powerhouses.

Those people came to Jerusalem at this juncture, which is equivalent to Sima Zhao's heart, which is known to everyone - find a way to kill Chen Ye!

In order to ensure Chen Ye's safety, the Xia Guo martial arts delegation asked several Taishan Beidou from the martial arts world to serve as bodyguards for Chen Ye.

Under such circumstances, Chen Ye naturally couldn't risk his life in order to have dinner with Cadele.

What's more, he knew very well that once he left the hotel, Cang Jizi and the others would definitely accompany him.

"That's ......"

Hearing Chen Ye's words, Cadele was first disappointed, then hesitated, and said:

"Mr. Chen, why don't I go to the hotel where you live to have a banquet for you?? The head chef of the Nordic royal family is traveling with me this time, and I arrange for them to buy the ingredients and cook dinner in your hotel restaurant, how about it? ”

"Okay."

Chen Ye thought about it for a while, and finally did not refuse Cardelle.

Because, according to Wu Chunqiu's arrangement, all the members of the North American martial arts delegation are being monitored, and there are several people on the roof of the building who take turns to monitor, as long as Chen Ye does not leave the Marriott Hotel, there will be no security problems.

And through the call with Carder, Chen Ye could clearly feel Carder's emotional changes, from the initial expectation, to the loss in the middle, and then to the final caution, for fear that he would refuse.

This made Chen Ye think of Cadel in that parallel world for no reason, thought of his intersection with her, thought of his debt to her, and couldn't bear to refuse again.

What's more, since he came to this world, he hasn't really eaten alone with Cadelle.

Seven o'clock in the evening.

Chen Ye met Cadele in the western restaurant on the top floor of the hotel.

Tonight, Cadelle is wearing a white evening dress, her hair is coiled, her face has exquisite makeup, and she is wearing a dazzling ruby necklace around her snow-white neck, like Snow White who has come out of a fairy tale world, and she is incredibly beautiful.

Seeing Cadel walking towards him, Chen Ye couldn't help but be in a trance.

At this moment, Cadele is like a cute little princess, too different from that crazy Cadele in the parallel world!

"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, for keeping you waiting."

At the same time as Chen Ye was in a trance, Cadel came to the table with an apologetic smile, but that smile made people feel cute.

"It's okay, I just came down."

Chen Ye came back to his senses, shook his head with a smile, got up very gentlemanly, and invited Cadele to take a seat.

As the two took their seats, melodious soft music played in the empty dining room, and waiters dressed in special Nordic royal costumes served food and wine to the table in an orderly manner.

Seeing this, Chen Ye asked with some curiosity:

"Cardelle, you brought the waiter too?"

"Yes, Mr. Chen. Tonight, I borrowed this restaurant, with the chefs and waiters of the royal family, to serve you and give you a taste of our Nordic cuisine. ”

Cadel nodded, then raised her glass and said:

"Mr. Chen, congratulations on your excellent results in this Global Martial Arts Competition, I would like to toast you."

"Thank you."

Chen Ye picked up his wine glass, first smiled and thanked Cadella before clinking glasses.

After taking a sip of the excellent taste of red wine, Chen Ye began to dine with Cadele.

Well?

Halfway through the dinner, when the waiter served two steaks as the main course, Chen Ye smelled a trace of something wrong, then raised his eyebrows and said:

"Cardelle, don't eat the steak just yet."

"Mr. Chen, what's wrong??"

Cadel had just picked up the knife and fork, and when she heard Chen Ye's words, she was stunned for a moment.

"There's something wrong with this steak."

Chen Ye frowned, picked up the steak in front of him, sniffed it, and made sure that his judgment was correct.

Cadelle looked confused: "What's the problem?" ”

"Someone poisoned this steak of mine."

Chen Ye got up, picked up the steak in front of Cadel again, and then gently put it down, and said in an astonishing voice.

"What...... What?! ”

Stunned to hear Chen Ye's words, Cadele stood up directly in shock, and said with an incredulous expression:

"Mr. Chen, are you sure the steak is poisonous?"

"Cadele, you know, I know how to heal."

Chen Ye gave the answer indirectly.

The poison in the steak has no color, and the taste is almost masked, and if it were replaced by other warriors, even most doctors may not be able to detect it.

But Chen Ye had been trained in using poison in that parallel world, and he was extremely sensitive to poison.

As the words fell, Chen Ye stared at Cadella to determine whether Cadel had anything to do with the matter.

"How...... How so? ”

Hearing Chen Ye's words again, Cadel no longer had any doubts, but sat down in his seat with a pale face.

Since she was a child, she has been living her life according to the arrangements of the Nordic kings, and is a simple and cute little princess, almost isolated from the outside world.

She had no friends, no relationships, no experiences that many of her peers should have – her world was a blank slate!

Until...... She met Chen Ye!

Chen Ye opened a window for her world, allowing her to rebel for the first time in a foreign country and experience the beauty of youth for the first time.

She admired Chen Ye's medical skills, marveled at Chen Ye's martial arts attainments, and regarded Chen Ye as her first friend in life.

In order to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, she mustered up the courage to invite Chen Ye to dinner, and even after Chen Ye refused, she cheekily invited a second time.

As a result, Chen Ye's food was poisoned!

For Carderle, this is tantamount to five thunderbolts!

"Hug ...... Sorry, Chen ...... Mr. Chen, I don't know why this is happening......"

After a short trance, Cadel opened her mouth to apologize to Chen Ye, a little incoherent,

"I ...... I'm going to call Milady right now and ask her to bring the head chef over and ask him what the hell is going on! ”

"Okay, Carder, you don't have to blame yourself and be nervous, let's find out what happened."

Chen Ye nodded.

Through a series of performances by Cadele, he was almost certain that Caddell knew nothing about it.

Cadel took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, and then dialed Miledy's phone and asked Miledy to take the head chef to the restaurant immediately.

A few minutes later, Miledi arrived at the restaurant with a middle-aged man.

Like the attendants, the middle-aged man was dressed in a special costume made by the Nordic royal family, and his face was full of horror.

"Mr. Walker, why is there poison in Mr. Chen's steak?!"

Cadel stood up and asked aloud.

Although she was extremely angry at the moment, she still maintained the proper upbringing of a princess, and was polite to the head chef.

"Poof!"

In response to Cadelle was a muffled thud.

The head chef, named Walker, collapsed directly on the ground and wailed in horror:

"Right...... I'm sorry, Your Highness Princess, I was forced! My children go to school in North America, and my wife takes care of them there. Someone kidnapped my wife and children and threatened me to poison Mr. Chen's food or kill my wife and children......"

"Bastard!"

Knowing the truth of the matter, Cadele trembled with anger and couldn't help but interrupt Walker's words in anger.

Walker knelt on the ground and cried out for mercy:

"I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness Princess, Mr. Chen, I was really persecuted, please let me go......"

"Mr. Walker, Mr. Chen is my only friend in this world, and you poisoned the food you gave him, this mistake cannot be forgiven - you will be judged by the laws of Northern Europe!

Of course, if your wife and children return to the Nordics, the royal family and I will not embarrass them, and they will enjoy all the rights of a Nordic citizen. ”

Cadele interrupted Walker again, and then said to Miledi:

"Miledi, take him down, and then hand him over to the palace guards, so that the guards can investigate the details of this matter."

"Yes, Your Highness Princess!"

Miledi immediately took the order, picked up Walker, and walked towards the outside of the restaurant.

Soon, only Chen Ye and Cadel were left in the restaurant.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, I didn't expect something like this to happen."

Cadele apologized to Chen Ye again, her eyes were red, there were tears in the corners of her eyes, and her pretty face was full of self-blame and guilt.

"Cadele, like I said before, you don't have to blame yourself, this matter has nothing to do with you."

Chen Ye picked up the napkin on the table and handed it to Cadele, sighed softly and said:

"Even, this matter has nothing to do with the Nordic royal family."

"Why?"

Cadel didn't take the napkin, but looked at Chen Ye with a look of surprise.

Chen Ye explained:

"In order to prevent me from winning the global martial arts championship, North America is determined to kill me. Even if they didn't force the chef to poison tonight's meal, they would do it in other ways. ”

"Ahh

When Cadele heard this, she first exclaimed, and then looked at Chen Ye with a worried face,

"Mr. Chen, then you will be in danger?"

"Rest assured, I won't let their plot succeed, and they will pay a heavy price for it!"

Chen Ye smiled slightly, but his words were full of cold murderous intent!
