Li You Ran returned to his own villa, and the thing he was playing with in his hand was actually the gun that Hou Qiang had been holding. To be honest, this kind of thing is something that men generally like, and this one was the real deal, unlike anything he had ever seen before. After playing with it for a while, Li You Ran put it away in the temple, now it's time to take care of those few guys!
That's right, it's just a few! Including Wenbo, since he has already seen his own secrets, he naturally cannot let him appear in this world. Anyway, he was wanted by the Yuan Group, and he himself can be considered as helping him, but how to deal with him, Li You Ran hasn't thought clearly yet.
The best solution would be to destroy all these people, so that one's own secrets will be forever safe. However, Wen Bo is innocent after all, and it can be said that he has his own credit for becoming what he is today, so it's really embarrassing to take action against him.
"Never mind, let's go and talk first." Li You Ran said to herself, then entered the temple.
Hou Qiang and his younger brother still looked the same as when they were thrown in. Wen Bo was released from his seal, anyway this temple wouldn't have any reaction without Li You Ran's control.
Wenbo saw Li You Ran appear and wanted to go over, but he walked a few steps before stopping. He didn't know if Li You Ran was still the same as before at this time.
Li You Ran nodded slightly towards Wen Bo, then walked towards the other two, grabbing one with each hand and throwing them into the time-space door. Wen Bo was brought in by him as they left, and Li You Ran had already set the coordinates before they went, right in the forest.
Hou Qiang and his younger brother were thrown out, and Li You Ran also appeared in the forest with Wen Bo. Wen Bo saw a blackness in front of him, and then he was in a thicket. He knew it was bad, either killing someone to silence them or destroying evidence! It's over, I should have known better than to stay there, all because of bad luck!
"Li You Ran, spare me! Brother Li, please let me go! I won't dare again! Just treat me like a dog and let me off!" Hou Qiang felt that he could speak after a while, so he immediately started begging for mercy frantically. Although this method may not be effective, it's definitely worth trying since not asking would certainly lead to no chance of being spared. He thought about the last time his girlfriend was kidnapped, but nobody got seriously hurt, perhaps the person was constrained by reality and law. He just asked, maybe there was still a glimmer of hope.
"Don't insult dogs! He is a friend of humans! And you are not, you don't even deserve to live in this world."
Li You Ran pulled out a gun and pointed it at Hou Qiang, which almost scared him to pee! It turned out that being pointed at by a gun felt like this. In the past, he was always the one scaring others, and he had even fired a shot and killed someone before - an undercover agent. The feeling was just like hunting, except he never thought that one day he would become the prey. And what's more, he couldn't run away from being the prey.
"Yes! I am worse than a dog, I am scum! I am a social cancer! I am the lowest of the low, I am nothing! If you spare my life, I will pay for it with money!" As long as he is still talking to himself, that's good, talking means there are conditions for negotiation. What's scary is if he doesn't say a word and just shoots directly, then everything would be over."
Upon hearing Hou Qiang's words, Li You Ran became interested and said: "Really? Tell me, how much money can buy your life? If the price is not enough, then sorry, I'm a businessman, I don't do business at a loss. You only have one chance to quote a price, start now, think carefully before speaking."
Li You Ran was initially happy after agreeing, but then he heard the conditions and his face turned green. This is going to cost him his life! If he says less, it's like cheating himself. Who knows how much is considered a loss?
"I! I have hidden 300 million RMB and 20 million USD in a villa, and there are also some antiques and other things, isn't that enough?"
It hurts to say it out loud! This is the savings accumulated over the years of robbery and looting! Except for being filial to those above, the younger brothers below are almost starving to death. Now, he has no choice but to vow that as long as he can get out, he will definitely go back to plunder again, of course, he cannot afford to provoke this person again.
"The price is actually quite good! I'm very satisfied, but..."
Li You Ran intentionally hung her stomach with a single word, making Hou Qiang's expression rich once again. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "What is it?"
"This amount of money is enough to buy your life, but what about your subordinate? Don't you plan to ransom him out together with you? If you choose this way, then it can only be you who leaves, he must die! What do you say?"
Li You Ran made a sinister move, using the most vicious kind of provocation, and no matter how you respond, it's always wrong.
Hou Qiang heard Li You Ran say this, and silently cursed his baseness, but he also had no choice. He glanced at his subordinates, seeing the expectant gaze they fixed on him. Hou Qiang knew that if he didn't save him, he would certainly hate himself. But when it comes to life or death, who cares about friendship?
"I've run out of money, brother I owe you! Your family will be taken care of by me." He said with a sobbing tone, his eyes threateningly staring at him, making it clear that if he didn't leave, his family would be taken care of anyway. If he couldn't leave, then he would also die, and die without any value. Hou Qiang hoped this underling would be smart about it!
Unfortunately, not everyone is so rational, and more often it's a yearning for survival that his subordinates have chosen another path.
"How despicable! I've been working like a cow and horse for you! That time we went out to fight the fire, I wasn't the first one! For the sake of getting along with you, I even fell out with my family. And this is how you treat me?! I'm going to report you! This guy isn't telling the truth! His wealth is more than that!"
In the choice between living on and fulfilling his father, he chose the former. This is not surprising, as most people would make this choice. Even if someone had to die, most people would think: "Why don't you go die, I'll live on and take care of your family?"
"You damn fool! What are you talking about?! Don't frame me!" Hou Qiang had indeed hidden something, it was in case he could survive and have the capital to make a comeback, but as a result, he was betrayed by his own subordinate.
"What! You're not benevolent, don't blame me for being unrighteous! What was said when I first joined the gang was good! That was a righteousness that reached the sky, but now you're not even willing to spend my ransom money! I'm telling you, what can you do to me?"
The two of them immediately started arguing, Li You Ran knocked on his own forehead and then fired a shot into the sky! With a loud "bang", the two people quieted down.
"Alright, spit it out! Is there anything else you haven't handed over? Give me everything! As a reward, I can let you run first!" Li You Ran's words didn't make sense to Hou Qiang, but he knew from the previous conversation that if he didn't speak up, he would be dead immediately.
Hou Qiang reluctantly spilled the beans, and it had to be said that making money by treading on thin ice was indeed quick. Unexpectedly, a not-so-big-or-small gang had managed to amass such wealth. Under Hou Qiang's name alone, there was a high-rise office building in the city center and several storefronts in commercial districts, among other properties totaling over ten locations.
Li You Ran almost laughed out loud with joy! This time he made a fortune, and most importantly, all those property certificates were handled by one of his subordinates and his mistress, and they were all kept in one place, easy to retrieve. Under the supervision of his subordinates, he told everything clearly, without hiding anything, because it was impossible to hide. This subordinate was the specific operator, and unexpectedly, his own confidant became the person who made him go bankrupt.
"I'm delighted! To show my generosity, I've decided to let the two of you go. Of course, only one of you will have a chance to live! Let's see who can run out of the forest first and survive! To fulfill the promise I just made, Hou Qiang, you can go first! But you only have one minute, what are you waiting for?"
When Li You Ran said that, Hou Qiang felt he could move again. He took two steps back, facing Li You Ran, fearing that Li would shoot him in the back when he turned around. However, Li spread his hands to both sides, indicating he had no intention of shooting. Hou Qiang retreated a few more steps before quickly turning and running away without even looking at his subordinates.
His subordinates were also anxious at this time! This is a matter of life and death! One minute, they would have run away long ago. Anxiously looking at Li You Ran, but he didn't dare to speak, could only wait like this.
"Alright! You can run now, hurry up! If you're slow, you'll end up dead! Got it?"
Wenbo and his subordinate looked at him in confusion, as if only 20 seconds had passed. How could it be over already?
"What's he staring at me for! I suddenly don't want him to live anymore, what can be done about it!"
The two of them were stunned, and at this time, the other party was the boss! Of course, whatever he said went. The restraint on his hands also loosened, and he didn't have Hou Qiang's worries, so he turned around and ran directly in Hou Qiang's direction. Before he had taken a few steps, Li You Ran's voice came from behind, like a death knell.
"If someone dies along the way! Then the other person can live unconditionally." It was as if he was muttering to himself, yet also reminding himself of something. Anyway, his subordinate seemed to understand, and immediately quickened his pace by a lot. He didn't want to die! So it would have to be Hou Qiang who dies instead.
"Are you playing with them like this?" Wenbo frowned and asked.
He used to be very afraid, but now he's not afraid anymore. If Li You Ran wanted to kill him, he would have been dead long ago. Since he won't die, what is there to be afraid of? He didn't provoke Li You Ran either.
"Aren't you afraid? You might die here." Li You Ran said faintly.
"If I were to die, I'd probably be as exhausted as Hou Qiang. Actually, you never intended to let him off the hook, did you? His underling is just your pawn, or rather, neither of them can stay alive?"
