Zhou Wancan continued the interrogation.
He was anxious to find out the whereabouts of the weapons and ammunition.
This seriously affected his integrity.
The address was what he told Zhang Yong. In the end, it was found to be nonexistent. This was slapping himself in the face.
He definitely couldn't stand it.
However, the relationship between the Dagger Society and the Heaven and Earth Society seemed to be very deep. The burly man said nothing, no matter what. Even if he was in excruciating pain.
As for the others, they didn't know anything. Even if they wanted to confess, they couldn't.
It was useless to beat them.
'What are they doing here?' Zhang Yong suddenly wondered.
'Huh?' Zhou Wanchan didn't understand.
'The weapons and ammunition are no longer here, but they have been stationed here all along. What do you think is the reason?'
'I don't know.'
'Do you think they might...'
Zhang Yong paused.
But the map showed that there was someone in the house next door.
It was also a small white dot. But it didn't move. It had never moved.
Since there was a small dot, it meant that the person was alive.
It didn't move. Could it be sleeping? It didn't seem like sleeping time.
Besides, just now, there was fighting here, so there was some movement. It was impossible that they couldn't hear anything next door. Unless they were dead asleep.
Of course, he was just having some random thoughts in his head. He didn't have any definite ideas. He didn't want to complicate things.
Finding Yan Ruzi was the way to go.
'What can you do?' Zhou Wancan was full of doubts. He didn't know what Zhang Yong was going to ask.
'Yang Zhi,' Zhang Yong suddenly called out.
He finally decided to go check it out.
Hopefully, he was just being oversensitive.
Or maybe he had watched too many spy dramas. There was actually no such plot.
'Present!' Yang Zhi came up.
'Go next door and take a look. Try to go in quietly. Don't alert the other side.'
'Okay.'
Yang Zhi immediately led the men there.
Zhou Wanchan looked at Zhang Yong suspiciously. Go next door and take a look?
Do you think the weapons and ammunition might be hidden next door?
No way...
They must have been moved to another place.
Zhou Wanchan felt very embarrassed that he didn't find those weapons and ammunition.
He punched and kicked the burly man again and again.
'Ugh...'
'Ugh...'
There were groans of pain.
Zhang Yong didn't care.
He hadn't suffered any losses. He had already obtained five submachine guns.
If he couldn't find the weapons and ammunition, Zhou Wanchan would probably not have the face to take the five submachine guns back. It was just as well.
'Captain!'
'There's something going on next door!'
Lu Wang hurried back to report.
He glanced at Zhou Wanchan. Obviously, he felt that the other party was an outsider.
It was agreed that there would be weapons and ammunition, but there was none. The credibility was greatly reduced. Naturally, it was an outsider.
'What's the situation?' Zhang Yong waved his hand. Let him talk.
'There is a little boy next door. Tied to a stool,' Lu Wang whispered, 'but I didn't see the kidnappers...'
'They should be them,' Zhang Yong pointed at a few people from the Dagger Society.
It's confirmed. They are watching someone.
Who are they watching? Of course it's the little boy next door.
It seems that this little boy is very important. That's why he was kidnapped here.
'They?'
'Yes! Do it! Ask for information.'
'Okay!'
King Lu immediately came up and started.
He grabbed the thinnest guy and beat him up. The other party finally confessed.
Zhang Yong was right. They were indeed here 'watching' the little boy. The little boy was also kidnapped. However, they were not the ones who kidnapped him. Someone else was.
Their job was to prevent anyone from coming to the house to kidnap the boy. At the same time, they had to feed and water the boy and make sure he stayed alive.
However, if there were special circumstances, they could also decisively kill the boy. Kill him.
'Damn it. You were going to kill the boy?'
'Bastards!'
'Insane! Heartless!'
'King Lu, what are you shouting for? Keep beating him! Are you out of strength?'
'Yes!'
King Lu was furious. He continued to beat him.
Zhang Yong watched coldly from the side. Inside, he felt nothing.
A bunch of despicable kidnappers. They laid hands on a young boy. And they wanted to kill the hostage. Such scum, even he couldn't stand it.
First, beat them up. Then, kill them all. Such scum, they don't deserve to live.
'Ask, who planned this?'
'Yes!'
King Lu began to interrogate.
As a result, no one else knew. They all looked at the strong man.
However, the strong man was also stubborn. He just wouldn't open his mouth. The King of Lu asked several times, but there was never an answer.
There was nothing to be done. Such people could only be sent to hell.
Nudge the mouth. It means to dispose of it.
The King of Lu pulled out a dagger. One stab, one disposal.
Zhou Wancan: ...
Shit, just get rid of it?
He wanted to say something, but stopped. In the end, he gritted his teeth.
A bad start.
What a shame...
Zhang Yong went next door and found that the little boy had gradually regained the ability to move. But he was still very weak. It looked as if he were seven or eight years old.
'He's been kidnapped for three days.'
'That long?'
'Yes!'
'Give him something to eat. But don't let him eat too much. Let him drink water instead.'
'Okay.'
Yang Zhi agreed.
Zhang Yong went back next door. Lu Wang and the others were disposing of the bodies.
He found the phone.
He called the police station. He asked for Zhu Yuan.
Soon after, Zhu Yuan answered the phone. He seemed in a good mood.
'What? Captain Zhang...'
'Zhu Yuan, I'm going to tell you something very confidential. Is there anyone around you?'
'Er... hold on a second. Okay, go ahead!'
'I was on a mission and rescued a young boy. He said he had been kidnapped for three days...'
'Where... are you?'
Zhu Yuan's breathing suddenly became heavy. Obviously this was no simple matter.
Zhang Yong could clearly sense the other person's caution.
He couldn't help but frown.
Was this not just an ordinary kidnapping case? Was there something deeply hidden?
It was only natural to think so.
Five people were deployed to watch over a young boy. The identity of this young boy must be very complicated. Ordinary people would definitely not be treated like this.
'I'm at 28 Xujiahui. The hostage is in the next room.'
'I understand. Don't you leave. I'll be there soon.'
'How many people are you bringing?'
'No. I'll come alone.'
'Can I trust you?'
'I'm going alone. If you don't trust me, you can get ready in advance.'
'Okay, I'll wait for you!'
'Be careful.'
'Understood!'
Zhang Yong hung up the phone.
It seems that this little boy is involved in a lot of things!
From his performance, it seems that he is not a simple little boy. He didn't panic too much.
After being rescued, he didn't easily give out too much information.
Obviously, he doesn't trust them very much.
Shake your head.
This time, it really turned out to be a side issue.
It is possible that I may have to stay in the concession for a longer period of time.
What if I can't go back at night?
Oh, you can come back here to stay. Just wait here for the culprit.
If someone comes this way, it means that the other party is definitely involved in the kidnapping. We'll just catch them red-handed.
The Japanese...
Who exactly is behind this?
Yang Zhi suddenly came over. He was also carrying the little boy.
After the little boy regained the ability to move, he walked like a little adult. He seemed quite calm.
'He says he wants to talk to you alone.'
'Me?'
Zhang Yong looks at the other person in puzzlement.
You're just a kid, how old are you? You feel like you're very mature?
The little boy doesn't say anything.
Zhang Yong: ?
Okay. Get ready to talk to a primary school student.
Yang Zhi steps back.
'What do you want to talk to me about?'
'How much money do you want?'
'What?'
'I'll give you whatever you want.'
'I don't want your money.'
'What do you want then?'
'I don't want anything. Saving a little kid is just something I do. I do good deeds every now and then.'
'But I can give you money.'
'If you want to, that's another matter. But I must clarify that I never asked you for money. I may be greedy, but I won't lay a hand on a little kid. Where's your home? I'll take you back. Just leave it at the door. I still have a mission to carry out, so I can't take you with me.'
'Who are you?'
'I'm with the Special Branch of the Restoration Society. Ever heard of us?'
'You work for Dai Li?'
'Ah...'
Zhang Yong was taken aback.
Shit. The way you talk...
If I hadn't seen that you're not even as tall as my chest, I would have thought you were some big shot.
You scared the shit out of me...
'Dai Li is my boss's boss's boss...'
'Oh. You don't hold a high position in the Restoration Society.'
'Kid, you're being very annoying. You know what? If you talk like that outside, you'll get beaten up.'
'My family is powerful and influential, so no one dares to beat me.'
'Er...'
Zhang Yong was once again left speechless.
He really wanted to say, 'Kid, you really will get beaten up.
So what if your family is powerful and influential? You were kidnapped anyway. If I hadn't happened to rescue you, you'd be suffering right now!
You might even have been killed. This is the consequence of your inability to speak properly.
Even a dog would reject someone at the age of seven or eight...
Suddenly, I understand why he was left alone in a house. It's probably because he talks too much. A chatterbox. Pretending to be mature. Everyone wants to beat him up.
'What mission are you going on?'
'To kill the Japanese.'
'I was kidnapped by the Japanese.'
'You saw it?'
'No. But I know the Japanese are behind it.'
'Who is your father?'
'Tang Wenhou.'
'Who?'
'I have a cousin called Tang Shengming. And another cousin called Tang Shengzhi.'
'Wo cao...'
Zhang Yong blurted out.
My goodness, two great men have popped up all of a sudden.
The former is a sure winner in life. A bunch of big shots are his teachers. He can get along well in any environment.
Even the teachers are his teachers. They also admire him.
When the teachers revolted, it was he who sent hundreds of guns and more than 10,000 rounds of ammunition.
As for the other one, forget it, I won't say anything. Anyway, he's definitely a big shot.
The Japanese are crazy.
They actually kidnapped someone from the Tang family.
No wonder Zhu Yuan acted so apprehensively.
'You swore.'
'I suddenly feel like you're a hot potato. My dear, I'll hurry and take you back. If your cousin misunderstands later, I'll be damned if I can explain myself.'
'Are you afraid of my cousin?'
'No. I envy him. Oh, I'm talking about the younger one. He's so capable. He gets along with everyone. He's popular everywhere.'
'You know my third brother well?'
'Not well. I've heard about him. By the way, what's your name?'
'Tang Shengbao.'
'...'
That name doesn't sound very good, does it?
It's vulgar...
Of course, I dare not say so.
For others to be given such a name is vulgar. But the Tang family...
'So, where is your home?'
'I don't know.'
'Please, young master, I really don't have time to play with you. I really have to go on a mission.'
'Who are you going to kill?'
'It's a secret. I can't tell you.'
'I don't trust anyone right now. I only trust you. Take me with you!'
'Don't...'
Zhang Yong was speechless.
I'm not worth your trust.
You're the eldest son of the Tang family, with a prestigious position. I can't offend either side!
Anyone who has the guts to kidnap you is definitely no good.
Anyone who has the ability to kidnap you is even worse.
Isn't this a hot potato?
'Why don't we become sworn brothers?'
'What?'
'Let's become sworn brothers. I'll recognise you as my big brother.'
'I...'
Zhang Yong was stunned.
Is this something a seven or eight year old would say?
You must have been poisoned by martial arts novels. Martial arts novels must be banned. They corrupt children...
Oh, these days, martial arts novels aren't popular. But sworn brotherhoods are. Almost every big shot has a bunch of sworn brothers. And then stabbing each other in the back...
'What's your name?'
'Zhang Yong. My style name is Shaolong.'
'Okay. Then let's become sworn brothers. I'll call you Brother Shaolong from now on.'
'This...'
'I've never sworn brotherhood with anyone before. You're my first big brother.'
'No...'
Zhang Yong was speechless.
It seemed like the situation was being manipulated by a little brat?
This is so sad...
I've actually been intimidated.
But there's nothing I can do about it, the other person really does come from a big family. He's someone I can't afford to offend.
'Brother Shao Long...'
'You're too kind.'
'You saved my life, I should recognise you as my big brother. You're my saviour.'
'Er...'
Zhang Yong was once again at a loss for words.
This was a serious complication. He had just found himself a younger brother.
And a younger brother with a very influential family.
It so happened that the Tang family behind this younger brother did not get along with the government.
It so happened that the Tang family behind this younger brother had always advocated going to war with the Japanese. The Japanese hated him.
Huh?
Did the Japanese kidnap Tang Shengbao as a warning to the Tang family?
It was very likely.
In that case, he can't be timid. He absolutely mustn't stand by and do nothing.
Whoever kidnapped him must die!
