Chapter 325: Betrayal

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Watching Brother Steel’s exasperated expression, Huang He contemplated. “How about Xie Wanwan? She’s not abducted by you?”

“I’m been wronged. Of course it’s not me! That’s why I said I feel like I’ve been made use of?”

As Brother Steel said all these, his face slowly started to turn ashen. “After losing Lima, someone sent me Xie Wanwan! In the beginning, I was still thinking this must be some great effort as Xie Wanwan is so much more beautiful than Lima! In the end, when I bleeping think over this matter, I feel that something is amiss! I felt I got framed, the kidnapping offense will be pinned on me, and in the end, I won’t be able to keep that woman, lose my money, and might even lose my base—”

He cussed and swore like a grumpy rabbit.

He revealed a hideous expression, yet he was unable to do anything to help himself.

Huang He thought for a moment. “I’m now curious—”

“What are you curious about?”

“Who’s that person? The one who dared to take you for a ride?”

Brother Steel stopped gritting his teeth.

He looked up at Huang He directly.

“I don’t know who he is! D*mn, I don’t know at all!”

“...” Huang He gave him a frosty look. “And you did a deal with that person without knowing who he was? Are you kidding me?”

“No, no, no, I’m not lying!” Brother Steel tousled his hair in frustration. “I’ve never met him, not even once.”

“Yet you are able to trust that person so much?”

“That person directly sent Xie Wanwan over. He even...” Brother Steel hesitated for a moment. “He even sent a huge sum of money as, as thanks...”

“Hurhur, then it’s not bad for you. You took his money after all. Of course, you have to bear the ill fortune that will cause you.”

Huang He let out a sneer as he glanced at him. “The police’s coming soon,” he got up from his seat. “I can’t be staying here anymore. If you want to stay, you can do so. But I’m not willing to sacrifice my life... just for a business deal.”

As he said so, he waved at Brother Steel.

“Oh, right. Please send me out, I don’t think I can make my way out of here!”

In this base, there was another exit that could leave this place.

Brother Steel hesitated for a moment. “Alright!”

Huang He smiled. “If there’s still an opportunity, we’ll meet again.”

As Brother Steel watched Huang He about to turn away, he suddenly had a change of mind.

“Wait a moment, Brother Crown Prince.”

Huang He turned back. “What’s the matter?”

“Look, with your business deal, and your help to put in a few good words for me... My boss, won’t want my life, right?” Brother Steel licked his lips and snickered. “And the scapegoat that you spoke of, I’ve someone in mind...”

Huang He raised an eyebrow but did not say a word.

Brother Steel suddenly looked towards the window. “Liang, this rascal must be up to something!”

“...”

“Since the beginning, he seemed to be keeping me from the truth. Next... about the way to find this base, I mulled over it that the detective couldn’t have been the one who left the symbol.”

Huang He was a little startled.

From Brother Steel’s expression, he didn’t seem to be lying.

“I’ve thought over it carefully. That detective was being tied up when we brought him to the base. I’m very certain that he had no chance to do that.” Brother Steel turned to look at Huang He. “After discussing with you earlier on, I realized where the crux of the problem is.”

“Where?”

“I’ve been too bleeping trusting of my own men!”

Huang He’s gaze dimmed slightly. “What do you mean?”

“Liang, that b*stard Liang betrayed me!” Brother Steel was gritting his teeth in anger. “He was the one who told me about the murder case that took place in Xi City... That woman, Lima, he was the one who brought her to me as well. He was also the one who brought back the sum of money and Xie Wanwan... And I thought this brother of mine is really capable... now that I think of it, he’s trying to set me up!”

“...”

It was obvious now.

The one who betrayed him could only be Liang.

“Liang!” Brother Steel went ballistic as he analyzed what happened. He dashed out of the door and bawled. “Where the hell is Liang? Brothers, go catch him and bring him to me now!”

...

Huang He paused for a while and wanted to say something.

But Brother Steel was as though been fed by explosives.

In no time, he received feedback from his men.

“Brother Liang’s gone!”

“D*rn!” Brother Steel started to smash things. “We got betrayed!”

...

Betrayed!

Thoroughly betrayed!

Huang He was silent for a moment. “Let’s escape! When there’s life, there’s hope. We can make a comeback!”

Brother Steel turned back immediately upon hearing Huang He’s words.

His bloodshot eyes indicated he was really furious.

“Escape?”

“Yes, escape!”

Huang He laughed. “There’s nothing more important than our lives!”

Brother Steel took out the gun at his waist and deactivated the gun lock. “If we go head-on, what are the chances of me winning Bai Muchuan!?”

Huang He nodded his head slowly.

“Not even 10 percent.”

Brother Steel immediately looked grim.

Huang He scrutinized his expression. “You better leave with me!”

Brother Steel was actually feeling very uneasy. His scorched colored face was as though the preserved bacon that was sold during winter. “Leave with you?”

Huang He nodded his head. “We’ll go look for your boss for a big business deal!”

Brother Steel gave it a thought and clenched his fists. “Fine! I’ll inform all of my brothers!”

Huang He snorted coldly. “Are you a fool?”

“...”

Their gazes met and Brother Steel quickly understood what he meant.

“You’re saying?”

Huang He nodded and had a grave look on his face. “What happened here is strictly between the two of us! Remember, you got betrayed by your subordinate and you’re being forced to do this...”

...

The mountains were covered in fog.

Even though it was day time, the level of visibility was low.

Bai Muchuan and the group of armed police officers had almost run out of patience when they finally saw something.

“Captain Bai, look! Is there a person there?”

Bai Muchuan turned his head.

In the forest that was so dense that it felt spooky, there seemed to be a man, dressed in black, and was crouching on the ground.

After walking for so long, they finally saw a person and were excited.

“Let’s go over there for a look!”

“Wait up!” Bai Muchuan raised his hand to stop everyone. “Laowu!”

Quan Shaoteng’s face was so serious that it gave off a chill. His eyes were red due to exhaustion and yet his spirits were especially high.

“I’ll go!”

“Stay here for further orders!” Bai Muchuan raised his hand to the rest of the team.

Everyone stopped in their tracks while Quan Shaoteng took his gun and approached that man.

“He’s dead!” Ten seconds later, they heard his voice.

Everyone was startled and looked at each other.

Bai Muchuan waved his hand and everyone moved toward Quan Shaoteng.

As they studied the dead man carefully his eyes were staring angrily, on the back of his hands, his veins were bulging where the colors were now purplish black. His skin was so pale without a trace of blood.

Quan Shaoteng gave a spat. “He’s dead for a while already!”

Bai Muchuan took a look at the dead man. “Isn’t this the young man we met at Nanmu?”

Eh? Quan Shaoteng turned to him with an inquiring look.

A cold look flashed past Bai Muchuan’s face. “It’s Shanzi.”

That day, when Liang was carrying several bags of stuff to Nanmu Hotel on behalf of Brother Steel to express their apology for not meeting them, there was also a younger man who came along with Liang.

Same as Liang, he was also one of those men who got beaten up by Bai Muchuan at the hotpot restaurant in Xi City, and then together with Liang, both of them tailed Bai Muchuan and Xiang Wan at the food street subsequently as well. Shanzi was a lanky guy who seemed to be around 18 to 21 years old.

As Bai Muchuan had met him several times, he only knew that Liang had called this young man as “Shanzi.”

This was a young man who was very ordinary.

“... But why did he die here?”

“Maybe it was a form of greeting for us!”

“Form of greeting?” Quan Shaoteng gasped a little. “You mean Brother Steel killed him?”

Bai Muchuan remained silent.

He paused for quite a while before he replied, “Maybe not!”

“If it’s not Brother Steel, who else can it be?”

“Those symbols were left by Shanzi.” Bai Muchuan did not touch Shanzi’s corpse. His pair of eyes were so cold as though he was devoid of feelings. “Someone must have asked him to lure us here and then killed him—”

Quan Shaoteng was stunned. “So you’re saying those symbols were not left by Tu Liang?”

Bai Muchuan shook his head, his gaze was still on Shanzi’s corpse.

“Turn him around!”

As the corpse was in a crouching position, Quan Shaoteng gave a slight kick and the corpse turned over—

Everyone could now see clearly that there was a dagger that pierced Shanzi’s heart.

On the area under his neck, there was a symbol that was half-drawn.

“Do you think there’s a possibility that?” Quan Shaoteng let out a gasp. “When he was drawing the symbol, he might have tripped onto something, fell and got pierced by his own dagger?”

Bai Muchuan swept a glance at him. “Why don’t you try to simulate such a fall if you can achieve this?”

“D*rn!” Quan Shaoteng pulled his hat. “Why should I do that?”

Bai Muchuan ignored him and looked at the dried blood stains at Shanzi’s chest. “He was killed! This was not an accident—the one who he was working for is the one who wanted to lure us here. That person should be the mastermind of this entire conspiracy.”

“Why can’t it be Brother Steel who killed him as he found out what Shanzi had done?”

“If Brother Steel was the one who found out about what he was doing... We won’t be able to find our way here.”

“Now that he’s dead. That means there will be no more symbols. How are we going to find the base?”

“Hur!” Bai Muchuan suddenly laughed as he swept a cold glance at the dead body on the ground. “The mastermind had invited us over with such sincerity, why would he stop leading us to the base?”

“Eh?” Everyone was not able to understand that.

“It’s simple. Since that person had chosen to kill Shanzi here, it only showed that Shanzi was no longer of use.” Bai Muchuan squinted his eyes as he surveyed the area. “The base of the Dark Clan should be nearby!”

Nearby?

All they saw were only trees and more trees.

“Where will it be? I can’t seem to spot anything unusual?”

“I got this!” Quan Shaoteng looked at the half-drawn symbol by Shanzi. “There’s an arrow here that pointed to the direction at three o’clock!”

This fellow! Finally, he’s smart this time.

Bai Muchuan gave him a look of approval. “Everyone, speed up!”

In the forest, there was as though the smell of death everywhere.

As they got nearer toward the base, everyone started to get the jitters.

The Dark Clan members guarding the base was also in a state of tension.

Bang!

A gunshot pierced through the forest. Sounds of swearing and curses started to fill the area.

“The police are here!”

“Brothers, do or die!”

“Get them!”

“...”

The police had not even entered their base and yet these people came out of their base already.

Were they really lacking in the brains department or were they really just giving it their all?
