After the bald man escaped upstairs, he hid in a private room and made several desperate phone calls for help. However, Josen's phone was completely unreachable, and the leaders of several other districts were also under siege at that moment, leaving them no time to answer his calls. In the end, only Toothy Huang picked up the phone amidst the sounds of fighting. Just as the bald man was about to plead for help, Toothy Huang's hoarse voice came through the line, cursing loudly: "Baldy! Damn you! How dare you betray me!" The bald man was stunned, his hand trembling as he held the phone.
A few masked men rushed upstairs and headed straight for the bald man's office. After kicking open the door, they found it empty. They then went to his private room, where a screen displayed a man and woman mechanically repeating their actions, but there was still no sign of the bald man. The informant grew anxious and instructed several people to split up and search all the private rooms. Almost everyone in each room had come out, making it easier to search. Soon, they had checked dozens of rooms upstairs and downstairs but still found no trace of the bald man.
Could he have flown out? Just as they were preparing to head downstairs, Big Bull suddenly said he needed to use the restroom. Right, they hadn't checked the restrooms yet. Although each private room had its own bathroom, there were also public restrooms on each floor. So they tacitly turned back and split into two groups to search for the restrooms.
Sure enough, in a stall in the women's restroom on the third floor, they found the bald man crouched on the toilet, shivering. When he was captured, he kept pleading with Beng Hu Lian's brothers not to hit him and promised to do whatever they asked as long as it was within his capability.
As they descended the stairs, laughter erupted in the lobby from Beng Hu Lian's brothers when they saw Big Bull dragging the bald man by one leg, holding him upside down. Big Bull approached Xin Yi and threw the bald man onto the ground with frustration, saying, "Brother Xin, this bald man is no good; he was hiding in the women's restroom!"
The bald man rolled twice on the floor before scrambling up and kneeling in front of Xin Yi with a thud. Trembling, he said, "Big Brother, please spare me! I will do anything you ask; from now on, I will follow you!" He then kowtowed three times before Xin Yi.
The entire lobby, including injured members lying on the ground and a dazed receptionist nearby, looked at him with disdain. Such a spineless coward was truly a disgrace among traitors!
Xin Yi glanced at the bald man thoughtfully and coldly replied, "Someone like you is nothing but a shame to have by my side! You are worse than these brothers lying on the ground; at least they fought bravely... Big Bull, take this coward outside and tear him apart!"
"Yes, Brother Xin!" Big Bull grinned as he walked toward the bald man. Terrified, the bald man scrambled backward desperately but was soon caught by one leg and lifted into the air. Despite struggling continuously while hanging there, it was futile against Big Bull's strength. After struggling for a while with no effect, the bald man suddenly burst into tears; tears streamed down his forehead and fell onto the floor below. How could such a coward have become a leader in S City? Everyone present sighed; it seemed that talent really needed to be recruited urgently!
Seeing Big Bull carrying the sobbing bald man toward the door, Xin Yi made a gesture to withdraw and stood up first. The group orderly exited the lobby, leaving behind injured members and a dazed receptionist. However, everyone breathed a sigh of relief; those masked men were incredibly fierce—one could take on three others effortlessly! This was truly a world of strong individuals; it seemed that even if the bald man didn't die this time, he would certainly disappear from S City.
The guests upstairs also let out long sighs of relief as they pulled out tissues to wipe away their cold sweat; that had been truly terrifying! Thankfully it wasn't aimed at them. However, given how expensive it was at this place without any safety guarantees, they decided never to return again—what a terrible establishment! Only those who had finished their activities with ladies without tipping felt secretly pleased; hey, they got free entertainment! A little scare was worth it!
As Xin Yi walked out of the lobby, he saw Big Bull holding both legs of the bald man aloft while he cried heart-wrenchingly in mid-air. Seeing Xin Yi approach, Big Bull said in a deep voice: "Brother Xin, it's a bit of a pity to just tear him apart like this."
"What? What do you mean?" Xin Yi paused; could it be that Big Bull had learned to think critically?
"Hehehe..." Big Bull chuckled and said: "Can I first strip off his clothes before tearing him apart? It would be too wasteful to rip his clothes!"
"Uh... Hahaha..." Xin Yi almost burst out laughing, "Do you really think you can tear him in half? I'm just messing with this bald guy. Forget it, let's throw him in the van."
The Iveco Van turned around and drove onto the highway. Xin Yi called the leaders of several groups and learned that they had successfully completed their missions and were currently on their way back. Then he called Huang Mang to arrange for someone to receive the bosses they were bringing back from S City. Of course, the follow-up matters would be handled by Huang Mang and Du Hong, both of whom were veterans in the gangster world and knew how to take over Money Gang's operations in S City without causing any trouble.
...
Josen and his group spent a night detained by the Criminal Police Team and were finally released in the morning. Josen was seething with anger; not only was he under the glaring lights, but he also had to endure the loud antics of several young police officers. When had the dignified Young Master Qiao ever suffered such humiliation in Binhai? That ungrateful Lu Jianming didn't show him any respect at all. It seemed he would have to find a way to get rid of Lu Jianming from his position as Deputy Director of the Municipal Bureau, preferably transferring him to be a traffic cop—one of those who could only stand at a roundabout directing traffic, Josen thought viciously.
As soon as he got his phone back and turned it on, Josen received countless text message notifications from people who had called him while his phone was off. He scrolled through them and noticed many were from the bosses of various districts in S City. A sense of foreboding washed over him, and he quickly tried to return the calls, but all of them were off. Something must have happened! Josen called out to Su Chaohui and a few other lackeys who had been detained with him and hurried outside the police station.
The weather outside was particularly nice today, with clear skies and bright sunshine. After spending over ten hours in the dark interrogation room, Josen stepped out into the blinding sunlight, squinting for a few seconds until his eyes adjusted before cautiously making his way down the steps. Just as he reached the last step, a cold male voice came from ahead: "Young Master Qiao, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Josen jumped at the sound and looked up to see Shen Shanshan's brother, Shen Liwei, standing there rigidly. The fierce anger in his eyes seemed ready to burn Josen to ashes. Josen couldn't help but shudder; he hadn't expected Shen Liwei to arrive so quickly. While Josen could deny his actions to the police due to their need for evidence, there would be no such luck with Shen Liwei. The military wouldn't care about evidence; if they disliked you, they could deal with you however they wanted, without being subject to local government oversight. Even if his father intervened, it might not save him—what was he going to do?
He should never have targeted Shen Shanshan; at that moment, Josen regretted it deeply. He knew how close Shen Shanshan was with her brother, and using such tactics against her would mean her brother would retaliate tenfold against him. If it fell into Shen Liwei's hands, he would be lucky to escape with his life. So Josen's first thought was to run—run as fast as he could and as far away as possible. It was pitiful that the son of Binhai's Provincial Party Secretary, a behind-the-scenes figure in Binhai, found himself thinking about fleeing.
However, that wasn't even the worst part; even if Josen wanted to run now, he had no chance because dozens of fully armed soldiers stood in the courtyard of the police station. Josen believed that even if an angel lent him wings, he couldn't escape now. Since running was impossible, he could only take things one step at a time. Josen forced a smile and approached Shen Liwei with a feigned casualness: "Li Wei, are you on official business?"
"What official business?! I'm here specifically to pick you up, Young Master Qiao!" Shen Liwei smiled too, but his words felt like a bucket of ice water pouring over Josen's heart.
"No need for that; I can go back myself. You're so busy; I wouldn't dare trouble you," Josen chuckled nervously, clinging to his last shred of hope.
"Not a bother at all! Aren't we brothers? You mentioned wanting to experience military life last time we spoke. I’ve been too busy lately but now that I have some free time, I came right away!" Shen Liwei said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes: "Please! Young Master Qiao!"
Josen glanced at the armed soldiers in the courtyard, licked his dry lips, and forced a smile: "Alright then, thank you Li Wei! I really do want to experience military life; let me just make a quick call home so they won't worry." With that, Josen pulled out his phone from his pocket.
Who knew that Shen Liwei would snatch Josen's phone and say with a smile, "I'll talk to Uncle Qiao about it. You just relax and enjoy life. I'm sure Uncle Qiao will thank me when he finds out, hahaha... Also, you can't use your phone casually in the army, so I'll hold onto it for you." After saying this, Shen Liwei looked at a few Lackeys behind Josen and asked, "These guys are your friends too, right? Then let's take them along. It's better to have more people looking out for you in the army."
Josen was on the verge of breaking down. Shen Liwei was not even allowing him to send out any messages. This meant that no one would know where he had gone, leaving Shen Liwei free to do whatever he wanted with him. Shen Liwei was truly ruthless; it was clear that he intended to make things difficult for Josen.
At that moment, Shen Liwei waved his hand and called out, "Come here!" Immediately, a group of soldiers jogged over. Shen Liwei pointed at the few people behind Josen and ordered, "Help these brothers onto the vehicle!"
The soldiers understood the Camp Commander's purpose for coming this time. Saying "help" was a polite way of putting it; in reality, they roughly picked them up and tossed them into one of the military green transport vehicles. The Lackeys had never seen such a scene before and were so frightened that they could barely stand, so they had no choice but to obediently squat in the back of the truck.
Shen Liwei then said to Josen, "Young Master Qiao, I should have let you ride in my Jeep, but since you're here to experience life, I won't force you. You can squeeze in with them."
Just as Shen Liwei was about to wave for someone else, Josen hurriedly said, "That's fine! I can get in myself!" He then walked straight over and climbed onto the transport vehicle.
Inside the military Jeep, Shen Liwei was on the phone. He concluded with, "Wei Ge, thank you! Otherwise, I wouldn't have made it here so promptly. Let's grab a drink together sometime!"
"Camp Commander, what should we do with these guys after bringing them back?" asked an officer wearing glasses who also had two stripes and two stars on his shoulder.
"Hmph, what should we do?" Shen Liwei replied with a sinister smile. "Let's hold a military-civilian friendship fighting competition when we get back first. Hehehe..."
