Being taken away by several guards, Fang Yi did not resist at all.
If it came to resisting, these guards could not have stopped him, and they weren’t even armed with guns.
Once Fang Yi resisted, it would have been an attack on the guards, which would adversely affect his subsequent actions, so Fang Yi decided to head to the Guard Department first.
Moreover, Fang Yi felt there was something fishy about all this, especially the mole, and he didn’t know yet that any rash action would alarm the enemy.
Fang Yi was seized by several guards and got into their vehicle, but he discovered that the vehicle was headed out of the city, not to the Guard Department.
At this time, there were three guards including the middle-aged man leading them, sitting right next to him. Fang Yi turned his head, smiled at the middle-aged man—it appeared to be a foolish grin.
The middle-aged man noticed and gave a frosty smile, saying, "Well, well, lad, you can still smile at a time ? But you look like a simpleton."
Fang Yi ignored his derogatory remark, still ’foolishly’ smiling, and asked, "May I know how to address you?"
The middle-aged man replied, "My surname is Gao, Gao Sen, and I’m from the City Guard Department of Southern Domain City. Why, you don’t like me, thinking of running away, and then seeking revenge on me, huh?"
Fang Yi chuckled and said, "Why would you say that? I would never dare to attack a guard."
Gao Sen said, "That’s more like it! Listen, kid, even if you think about attacking, it’s useless because I have a gun!" While saying this, he patted a gun holster at his waist.
Fang Yi hadn’t noticed it before, but now he did, though only Gao Sen was armed, not the other two guards.
Fang Yi squinted slightly and looked out of the window, implying, "This doesn’t seem like the way to the Guard Department. Don’t tell me the City Guard Department of Southern Domain City is out in this wilderness."
Gao Sen turned his head toward him, sneering sinisterly, "Kid, I must say you have quite the imagination, but you talk too much. Seems like you need to be quieted down for a while."
Fang Yi slightly frowned.
Gao Sen took out a black bag, pulling it directly over Fang Yi’s head.
Fang Yi was plunged into darkness, smelling the heavy scent of sedatives from the bag, making him quickly drift toward unconsciousness.
"Kid, when you wake up, it’ll be the end for you, ha ha!" Gao Sen’s mocking laugh resounded in his ears.
Fang Yi took a deep breath, endured, he had to endure!
Fang Yi reminded himself internally, not only telling himself not to pass out but also cautioning himself not to act rashly and alarm the enemy and risk not confronting the main culprit.
During this process, Fang Yi, in the rattling guard vehicle, began to internally employ the Cultivation Technique the old man had taught him.
Evil Desire Scripture!
"Gate of the heart, cease, breath long, mind and spirit as one..."
"Tanzhong acupoint sealed, blocking external forces..."
Earlier, Fang Yi didn’t know the real use of this Cultivation Technique the old man had passed down, other than it could help him suppress his illness. But now, Fang Yi discovered a wonderful use of these Internal Cultivation Methods—a temporary cessation of breathing, needing only a minimal uptake of air.
Thus, Fang Yi’s mind suddenly cleared.
After an indeterminate amount of time, the guard vehicle made a sharp stop and then halted completely, seeming to have reached the destination.
"Little Li, drag this kid off the car!" Gao Sen’s voice sounded.
Fang Yi let the one called Little Li drag him out of the car, appearing completely like a dead person at this moment.
After a while, the black bag over Fang Yi’s head was yanked off, and Gao Sen squatted in front of him.
Looking at Fang Yi lying unconscious on the ground, holding a gun, Gao Sen said, "Kid, don’t blame me; it’s just your bad luck. Taking someone’s money, dealing with their troubles, when you get down there, don’t come looking for me. If you want to blame someone, go find Mo Hongbei."
The sentiment carried a tone of the sorrow of the hunting.
"I won’t just look for him, I’ll also look for you."
A voice emanated from Fang Yi’s mouth.
Gao Sen’s eyes suddenly widened, unable to recover from his shock.
The next moment, a huge fist smashed into his face, and the handgun in Gao Sen’s hand was easily snatched away by Fang Yi, who sprang up from the ground with a bounce, aiming the muzzle at Gao Sen’s forehead.
"How is that possible! You... you were clearly..."
Gao Sen’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Fang Yi sneered and said, "You were about to say I should have been knocked out by the sedatives, right? But, unfortunately for you, I’m naturally immune to sedatives."
Incredible! Gao Sen would never believe it, even if it killed him.
"Tell me! Who sent you," Fang Yi spoke lightly, but his words carried murderous intent.
Gao Sen shuddered, facing the dark muzzle, he could only respond, "It was, it was Mo Hongbei."
"Where is he now?" Fang Yi asked.
Gao Sen shook his head and said, "I don’t know, I only know he lives in Jinjiang Yipin."
Fang Yi narrowed his eyes slightly and questioned, "How much money did he give you to kill for him?"
"Damn, only fifty thousand!" Fang Yi said extremely displeased, "I’m worth more than fifty thousand, right?"
Inwardly distressed, Gao Sen didn’t dare contradict, so he nodded repeatedly in agreement.
Fang Yi spoke meaningfully, "This deserted wilderness is indeed a good place to kill and dispose of the body." He looked around, the area was deserted.
Gao Sen immediately understood the chilling meaning behind Fang Yi’s words, shivering all over, cold sweat down his spine, he hurriedly pleaded, "Spare my life, heroic one."
"Heroic? Heh..." Fang Yi pointed the gun at him and said, "As long as you answer a few of my questions, sparing your life isn’t out of the question."
Gao Sen quickly nodded; he had already spoken earlier, so why hold back now when his life was on the line? If Fang Yi dared to shoot... At this moment, Gao Sen didn’t dare flaunt his guard status anymore. If Fang Yi was scared, he wouldn’t be pointing a gun at him.
Thus, in the following moments, Fang Yi asked Gao Sen, who worked for the Black Water Alliance, about the organization. Turns out, this guy knew quite a bit, and Fang Yi learned some things he hadn’t known before.
After finishing the questions, Fang Yi put a black bag over Gao Sen’s head, who was pleading for his life. Then, along with two other guards, Fang Yi handcuffed them together, confiscating all forms of communication like mobile phones.
Killing a guard was definitely out of the question for Fang Yi, but torturing them was another story. They would likely be found within about two days. Then, Fang Yi drove off in the guard vehicle, boldly heading back to Southern Domain City.
However, it was only as he neared the city that Fang Yi stopped the guard vehicle and took a taxi into the city, directing the taxi to Jinjiang Yipin.
However, en route, Fang Yi received a phone call from Liu Lang.
"Brother Yi! Something terrible has happened, we’ve been betrayed!" Liu Lang exclaimed loudly over the phone.
Could it have started already...
With unease in his heart but outwardly calm, Fang Yi asked, "Who is it?"
Liu Lang cried out, "It’s Gu Zheng! My brother... he... he..." At this point, Liu Lang’s voice suddenly filled with sobs.
"What happened to your brother?" Fang Yi asked.
"My brother... he’s dead."
