âBoss, the person who lives here seems to be very rich.â
âOf course. Just the BMW 7 Series alone is enough to show that the person
living in it is not simple.â
âBut heâs already so rich. Why is he still living in the slums? How degrading.â
âYou underestimate human nature.â Lin Yi said.
âThis is the largest slum in Pabem City. Even the police are unwilling to come here. Itâs a area outside the law. The people who rule here are like local emperors. They can control the resources of Cullen District at will and even form small-scale armed forces. If it were you, would you be willing to go elsewhere and be an ordinary person?â
Hearing Lin Yiâs words, Zhou Liang was enlightened.
It was better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. It was good to call the shots here.
âWait here for a while. Iâm going to inform Boss Maxa about this.â
The two of them didnât speak. They stood quietly at the entrance of the villa.
Basso walked straight in.
However, in a few minutes, he walked out and said to Lin Yi,
âCome in with me. Boss Maxa wants to see you.â
Lin Yi nodded and whispered into Zhou Liangâs ear.
âBe careful when you go in. Maxa is considered a top figure. He might have learned about what happened during the day through the television and the news. Once you realize somethingâs wrong, restrain him immediately.
âUnderstood!â Zhou Liang said solemnly.
Under Bassoâs lead, the two of them arrived at the interior of the villa.
Unexpectedly, the villaâs design was very Huaxian.
There were many places that reflected Huaxian elements, which surprised the two of them.
On the sofa sat a man in his forties. He had a drooping beard and was slightly plump. He looked very fit.
As expected, this man was Maxa.
Behind him stood two rows of people, who seemed to be his bodyguards and
servants.
From the moment he entered, Lin Yi had been observing Maxa.
He noticed that the latterâs facial expression did not change at all.
Judging from this, he did not seem to know what had happened during the day.
For the time being, he and Zhou Liang were safe.
When he saw the two of them, Maxa lit a cigar and crossed his legs, showing a superior attitude.
âWhy are you causing trouble in my territory? I hope you can give me an explanation.â
âYou were the ones causing trouble.â
Lin Yi pointed at Basso and said.
âYour subordinates came to rob us. How can you say that Iâm the one causing trouble? The responsibility is on you.â
âThis is my place. If you stay here, youâll have to hand over half your supplies. Thatâs the rule in Cullen.â
Maxa flicked the ash from his cigarette.
âOf course, youâre Huaxians. Itâs fine if you donât understand the rules here. Moreover, I have a good impression of Huaxians. Iâm willing to give you a chance. As long as you hand over a third of the supplies, you can stay here.
Nowâ the two of them understood why Maxaâs house had so many Huaxian elements. They didnât expect him to have such a strange complex.
âSorry, we donât have much on us. We canât give you anything. Itâs better for you to just give up on those thoughts.â
Maxaâs face tightened, feeling as if his authority had been challenged.
âYou should know what this place is. Disobedient people get chopped up and dragged outside to feed the dogs!â
Lin Yi shrugged. âYour threat doesnât work on me. I came to find you not because Iâm afraid, but because youâre useful to me.â
âWhat do you mean?!â
âYouâre about to find out!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lin Yi didnât say anything else. He exerted strength in his feet and rushed towards Maxa.
He used his large neck to grab Maxaâs neck and immediately restrained him.
âWhat are you doing?!â
Maxa panicked, not expecting this to happen.
At the same time, the bodyguards behind Maxa reacted immediately. They took out their weapon and aimed it at Lin Yi and Zhou Liang.
âPut your guns down or Iâll kill him!â
âCome on, put the guns down!â
Facing the fierce Lin Yi, Masak panicked and ordered his subordinates behind him to put down their weapons.
âAh!â
At this moment, a scream sounded!
Lin Yi and Zhou Liang turned their heads and saw a young woman walking in with freshly washed fruits.
The woman standing was very young. She looked to be in her early twenties, and the fruits had fallen to the ground.
Although her skin was not white, she was not brown. She was similar to an ordinary yellow-skinned Huaxian, but her eyes were a little sunken, and her nose bridge was high. She matched the characteristics of a foreigner.
He seemed to be of mixed-blood.
Zhou Liang made a prompt decision and rushed towards the young woman. He grabbed her neck and used her as a hostage.
âWhat the hell are you doing?! Youâre not allowed to touch my daughter!â Maxa roared.
Seeing his daughter in danger, Maxa lost control of his emotions.
âBehave yourself.â Lin Yi said.
â Tve already told you. As long as you cooperate obediently, the two of you wonât be in danger. Although Iâm not a good person, I still have this bit of integrity.
âWhat the hell do you want?â Maxa said in a panic.
âDonât worry, weâre not here for money or your life. You just have to do as I say and provide some help.â
âYou can tell me what help you need. 1â11 do my best to satisfy you, but donât touch my daughter.â
âDonât worry, we Huaxians are much better than you. We wonât touch your daughter,â Lin Yi said.
âI need a phone and four computers. Prepare them now. If you canât prepare them in half an hour, prepare for your daughterâs funeral.â
âAlright, alright, alright. Donât be rash. Iâll go prepare now.â
After calming Lin Yi down, Maxa shouted at Basso,
âWhat are you waiting for? Prepare the things according to his request!â
âIâll go now.â
Basso was also dumbfounded. He never dreamed that these two men would be so ruthless that they even dared to take Boss Maxa hostage!
Basso ran out, and Lin Yi and Zhou Liang heaved a sigh of relief.
Once the computer was in place, they could easily avert the danger!
At this stage, things were finally coming to an end.
âDamn it!â Zhou Liang cursed. âWhen I return safely, I have to come back and do something to them!â
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Just as the two of them thought that they could heave a sigh of relief, they suddenly heard a series of gunshots outside the courtyard.
Before they could figure out what was going on, they saw Basso running back in a hurry and shouting desperately.
âBoss, bad news. Thereâs a group of Meiguon soldiers outside. Theyâre rushing up the mountain.. Many of them are injured!â
