Most of the people at the scene had been brought by Jiang Ming, and when Jiang Ming wanted to leave, they all followed him, leaving Liu Rong alone and leaning against the wall miserably.
Liu Rong jumped over and hugged Jiang Ming’s waist. Jiang Ming was shocked, and so were the people around him, who hurriedly went to pull Liu Rong, but Liu Rong was like a piece of dog skin plaster, clinging to Jiang Ming’s body, and could not be pulled off even if he wanted to.
“You can’t leave!” Liu Rong shouted.
Jiang Ming said impatiently, “What’s the use of me staying? If you kill him, Yue Mangshan will also die. If he doesn’t kill Zhang Chao, it’s hard to say whether those soldiers under his command will avenge him. Zhang Chao has already retired from the army, but those soldiers have not. The things you and Yuehmangshan did to Lin Yue’er are enough to have you and Yuehmangshan shot. Would Yue Zhengjun let you get his son killed for nothing? Would he dare to go after Snow Leopard? In the end, it will be you and me!”
“We can exchange hostages. Zhang Chao, your gun is out of bullets, and you won’t leave here until you release Yue Manshan!”
I laughed, “Then it seems to be a bet on who is ruthless, come on, you keep me locked up and I won’t leave, let’s see who gives in first.”
Jiang Ming was furious: “You don’t dare to kill Zhang Chao, and you’re keeping him locked up and feeding him! This old thing Yue Zhengjun loves his son like his life, it won’t be long before the Yue family knows that Yue Mangshan has been captured, do you think Yue Zhengjun will come to you and ask you to let Zhang Chao go, or will he go to Snow Leopard and ask Snow Leopard to let his son go? Liu Rong, Liu Rong, can’t you use your head in doing something? You dare to mess with Snow Leopard, but do you dare to mess with Yue Zhengjun? You’re tired of living. Sooner or later, I’ll have to let Zhang Chao go, I’m not going to get involved in this mess of yours.”
Jiang Ming stomped away from Liu Rong, who was unable to stand because one of his legs was injured, and fell on his buttocks as the crowd oozed past him, and before long, there were no more than a few people left in the empty villa.
I said, “Shall I stay with you and wait for Yue Zhengjun to come, or shall I go first?”
Liu Rong, who was already a bit on edge, muttered alone, “No way, I’m not afraid of your snow leopard, and Yue Zhengjun is even less afraid.”
I laughed harshly, “That’s because Yue Manshan is not your son, if your son was in my hands, you would have to be afraid too. Indeed, we snow leopards can’t kill people indiscriminately, even if you kill me, the snow leopards can’t come over and bloodbath your family, at most go to court, the court of Tong City is your backyard, you are not afraid. But Yue Zhengjun is different. If his precious son is killed by a snow leopard, even if he goes to court to sue, the court can’t bring his son back to life. I heard from Uncle Han that you have two daughters studying abroad, why don’t I go and talk to them so that you can feel that anxious feeling?”
Liu Rong knew that he had completely lost, although it was Yue Manshan who had been arrested, he had also lost everything in this game.
Losing was all, and he had lost his face.
Not only would he no longer have any face in the Jianghu world, but he would also find it difficult to hold up his head as a man within the Liu family.
The blow was too great for him, and it was as if he had aged ten years at once.
Cai Xiaobing called me to report the situation: “The man was caught, where did you take him?”
“Stand by in place. Where is Xia Gehuai?”
“He’s already here, informing the top that the man was captured by Xia Gehuai’s leader.”
“That’s best.”
It was impossible for the Snow Leopard to take credit for this incident anyway, but instead there was a risk of getting into trouble, and it was best that this credit be given to Xia Gehuai.
Lin Yue’er was right, we kept seeing what we were doing was not the way to go, I had to win the Tongcheng police over to my side. I’m sure Xia Gehuai will be moved back to the city for the credit this time, as long as he comes back it’s a good thing, he’s a good kid, he must have a way to climb up.
I was about to hang up the phone, looking at the disheveled Liu Rong, I suddenly remembered something and asked Cai Xiaobing, “Is Lin Yue’er with you?”
“In the car, what does the captain want with her?”
“Oh no, you tell her that Liu Rong lost badly and her revenge plan worked.”
Cai Xiaobing didn’t understand, “What?”
I laughed, “Half of today’s plan was due to her, she offered to risk going to Ha Shan County to lure Liu Rong to send someone to kill her, and Liu Rong took the bait. I’m just going along with it, you tell Lin Yue’er that she’s really good and Liu Rong will get what he deserves.”
I hung up the phone, admiring Liu Rong’s expression of surprise and anger tangled together.
A man like him could lose, but he could never bear to lose to such a mundane little character, especially one that was once a woman he could have tormented.
It was worse than killing him!
I really wanted Lin Yue’er to see Liu Rong now, with his eyes red, old and helpless, similar to an old man begging for food on the street, and humiliated to the point of shedding tears.
That would be the best consolation for Lin Yue’er, better than killing Liu Rong.
I knew, of course, that it would not end so simply.
I would not kill him myself, nor would I allow Lin Yue’er to do so. There is a better way in the world to take revenge than killing Liu Rong, and that is to make him lose everything he once relied on and live as if he were dead.
On the battlefield, all we have to do is kill the enemy, but in this place where we can’t see the smoke, killing the heart is the way to go.
I didn’t ask Snow Leopard to bring Moon Man Mountain back.
It was too dangerous, and carrying such a man around the mountains was like carrying a tiger on your back.
And I’m afraid the guardhouse in Ha Shan County is much safer than the guardhouse in Tong City.
The place in Tongcheng is too heavy to return to, and even though Qi is now suspended, the police up and down the country have long been accustomed to that kind of atmosphere, and as long as Yue Zhengjun works a little, he may be able to get Yue Manshan out.
The county is too small and too far away from downtown Tong City. The mountains are high and the emperor is far away, so the Moon army may not be able to get that place.
If you go to Ha Shan County, if you take the main road, you will have to take a bullock cart.
The road in the mountains has nine turns and eighteen bends, and I’m afraid it will be dawn when I get there by ox cart.
But as Jiang Ming said, special forces soldiers are not delicate p*ssies, the wind cannot blow, the rain cannot rain, and the sun cannot sunbathe. The snow leopard can go over snowy mountains that are almost 80 degrees vertical when they are on a mission, and mountains like Tongcheng are no longer a problem.
I’m a snow leopard too.
I was a bit uneasy about leaving Meng Meng alone in Tongcheng, not so much for Meng Meng’s safety, but for He Bi’s movements.
If he doesn’t reveal himself in 10 days and half a month, can we just wait?
Not only was He Bi calm, but Lin Fang didn’t reply to my messages either.
I don’t know if Lin Fang didn’t read her WeChat or if the think tank behind her gave her some ideas, but she can afford to wait, and I can afford to wait even more, and I can take my time with her.
When I got to the foot of Snake Mountain, I got off the bus and couldn’t take it the rest of the way.
Catching the mountain at night was nothing for a Special Forces soldier.
But before I went into the mountains, I received a couple of phone calls, first from Monk.
Meng Meng had monitored the surveillance outside Ho Bee’s window, and as long as Ho Bee didn’t draw the curtains, Meng Meng could see inside Ho Bee’s house.
Meng Meng said that just now He Bi came home and took something out of the box, it looked like a gun, not sure if it was.
“We can get a search warrant to go into his house and search it, and if we can find the gun, we can arrest it.” Monk said, “That looks like he’s got a gun on him.”
I mused, “Keep your eyes on him, don’t do anything rash yet, and report back to me immediately if there’s anything out of the ordinary.”
