“But we’ve sent several of our men to hospital! Now there are only four of us left ……”
“Call for backup and get everyone in the house. By the way, don’t let the Pawn know that this boy has some connections with the Pawn. Go and get the Moon family too. I don’t believe it, there are so many of us and we can’t catch him alone. He’s just a rat, I’ll turn him out today!”
“Yes, there are many of us, he can’t escape from us.”
As I listened to their conversation, I weighed the tear gas in my hand in the darkness.
It was dark and starless in Ha Shan County, 30 kilometres from the main city of Tong.
The November wind was unbridled and there were few pedestrians left on the streets.
The streetlights lengthen people’s shadows. Lin Yue’er gasps for air and looks behind her fearfully, the sound of her high heels echoing through the empty streets.
It was only nine o’clock, but in this small county it was already late at night.
She had made up her mind to use herself to trick Liu Rong into a trap, but it was only when it came down to it that she really felt scared. She was following Cai Xiaobing just now, but now she didn’t know where she had gone, so she couldn’t have lost her.
Lin Yue’er squeezed her mobile phone, holding back from dialing Cai Xiaobing, her knuckles turning white as she squeezed the phone, which was creaking.
If Liu Rong’s people saw Cai Xiaobing with her, they would give up the idea of killing her.
She swallowed hard; there was no one on this street, the dim light couldn’t even illuminate anything a metre away, and the alleyway before her led to a terrible darkness.
What if Cai Xiaobing had really lost her, and Xia Gehuai had really failed to find her, and had just died here unnoticed?
Meow!
Lin Yue’er stumbled and jerked back, her back pressed against the wall, her heart nearly jumping out of her mouth before she saw that what had just jumped over was just a wild cat.
The wild cat was standing on the fence, its dark green eyes like two ghostly fires in the darkness of the night.
Why are you so cowardly? She mentally cursed herself.
Zhang Chao had definitely set it up, there would be no problem. It was because she was too timid that she had been taken advantage of by Liu Rong and bullied into her current state. If she had been more courageous and dared to resist, she might not have become like this.
Lin Yue’er consoled herself and looked back and forth, seeing no one suspicious, she took a heavy breath and continued to walk deeper into the alley.
Why was it so quiet, not even a cat was barking now, let alone the movement of people, had Zhang Chao not told Liu Rong about her coming to Ha Shan County?
Lin Yue’er was a little disappointed in her heart, but at the same time she let out a long sigh.
She decided to walk to the end of the hutong, and if Liu Rong’s killers hadn’t come yet, she would make a phone call and ask Zhang Chao what was going on.
In the darkness, at the wall where the cat had just stood, a tall, straight figure had stood at some point. The figure was staring at the back of the unsuspecting Lin Yue’er, the sharp blade in his hand reflecting the cold moonlight.
The light in the house flickered twice, the short-circuited wire was reconnected and the lighting was restored.
“Zhang Chao, get your a*s out here! Are you still a man if you’re hiding in the east like this?!”
“Your father, Zhang Jun, is at least a respectable man in the jianghu! Your grandfather’s family is one of the nine great families in the Jianghu, and you’re doing something so underhanded?!”
“Zhang Chao, come out!”
Liu Rong was badly injured, but he insisted on not going to the hospital, he was not relieved not to see me being hacked to death with a knife, he froze and had someone there to hold me up and scream at me.
The Liu family’s shouting and cursing was incessant, and I probed out to see that there were two dozen more people.
“Secure all the doors! Let’s push in and search bit by bit, I don’t believe we won’t find him!”
When the power went out just now, I had already figured out the layout of Qi’s house, the living room of this house was in the middle, and then there were three corridors that led to the outside of the house, and now all three pa*sages to had been blocked off, in other words, there was no way for me to escape.
I looked around quietly, and sure enough, all three corridors were blocked, and they were closing in bit by bit.
I had no choice but to retreat into the living room.
Liu Rong was standing on the first floor and saw me at once, pointing at me from upstairs and shouting, “He’s here! Hurry up and cut him down!”
The crowd came like a tidal wave, all with knives in their hands, at least twenty of them.
Liu Rong had learnt his lesson this time and stood on the first floor, not coming down, watching from the wall.
Two dozen people came at me like a tidal wave, and I took a cushion, stepping on the wall and hanging in the air from the floor of the first floor.
“Don’t let him up!” Liu Rong shouted in terror.
I looked down at the men coming after me and laughed, “I’ve bothered to send you all out tonight, and I haven’t given you a present yet. Hey, look at me, all of you.”
Everyone craned their necks to look at me as I pulled out a tear gas canister and threw it straight down, then quickly put on my goggles.
A few people reacted quickly and jumped, but didn’t know what it was, but of course, it was useless for them to know.
The tear gas quickly dispersed a white mist, then screams and coughs followed.
I hooked the floor and tumbled up to the first floor as Ryu Rong screamed and turned to escape, jumping faster than the man holding him up, and although his face was full of tears from the tear gas, he managed to find the right direction of escape with surprising precision.
I weighed the military spike in my hand and laughed after a moment’s thought, “Forget it, I’ll play with you a little longer.”
This kind of military tear gas is enough to make ordinary people lose their fighting ability instantly. Even a journeyman, without special training like that of a special soldier, would be completely defenseless in front of tear gas.
In just a few minutes’ time, the people downstairs fell and fled, and now even if I stood in front of them, it was impossible for them to stand up and touch me.
Even if I were standing in front of them now, they would not be able to stand up and touch me. These kung fu masters are just a bunch of fragile people in front of modern warfare weapons.
I knocked on the corridor with my army spike and shouted down the aisle, “Liu Rong, come out quickly. Didn’t you want to kill me?”
The whole villa was filled with noisy cries and I listened carefully to the sounds of different people walking. Liu Rong’s footsteps were distinctive after he had broken a foot, coming from the left side of the third floor, so it seemed that this grandson had hidden up there.
I followed him quietly and once upstairs, I saw Liu Rong cowering at the end of the corridor protected by several people.
“Get Ryu Rong over here! This is the Liu family’s business, see if he cares or not! Hurry up, do you hear me?!” Liu Rong yelled into the phone without a smile, “Get the Jiang family’s people over here too!!! And the Moon’s too!!!”
His hair was in a mess and he was cowering in the corner like a defeated dog.
The three big men were in front of him, but the three men’s eyes trembled with fear of me.
It was normal, they had just sent out at least forty of them, and they had let me maim and cripple them, so they had gone from an absolute advantage to a disadvantage, so how could they not be afraid?
It’s just that they don’t know that the enemies we face on the battlefield are more numerous and more ferocious than that.
Compared to those enemies, they are still too young.
“There’s still time before I kill you anyway, so let me ask you a few questions. Why did you choose to lay your hands on Lin Yue’er? She’s just a very ordinary female receptionist. I don’t think your Junran director’s temperament would be so small that he would be so angry by a little thing that he has to take revenge like this.”
“It was you who provoked me first. Lin Yue’er is your little follower’s girlfriend, right? Oh, even if you dare to spill your guts on my head, you even dare to take on such a small role, damn it!”
“Just for such a trivial matter?” I couldn’t help but clench my fists, feeling incomparably miserable inside.
Luckily Lin Yue’er wasn’t there, how desperate she would have been if she had heard of Liu Rong’s words.
“A trivial matter? He dared to do that to me, he couldn’t remember the lesson if he didn’t suffer a bit! And you, are you really here for this trivial matter? Oh, don’t pretend, you want to know about your mother, don’t you ……”
