Chapter 58: Shadow Headquarters

  Qingyu exerted herself to lift her somewhat weak eyes and looked at the person in front of her, then suddenly struggled excitedly like she had taken a stimulant, grabbing Xiao Wu and calling out: "Xiao Wu? Xiao Wu? Is it really you? Where's Fifth Brother?" She was somewhat agitated, even though she was being grabbed, but this sudden turn of events allowed her to see one of Long Xing's subordinates again. How could she not be excited? After all, seeing his subordinate meant that she would soon see Long Xing himself, the person she had dreamed of seeing. Therefore, her excitement was easily understandable.

  Xiao Wu didn't have time to listen to her, he saw the little ruffian-like gangster appearing behind him, his heart skipped a beat, but now that gangster leader seemed to be in a bad state too, seeing his bruised face and nose, it was clear that this kid had been beaten up by his own underlings.

  However, Xiao Wu didn't have any sympathy for him. This guy even dared to kidnap the boss's woman, that was unforgivable. Xiao Wu now considered Qingyao as Long Xing's woman and no one was allowed to bully her. So Xiao Wu stretched out his hand and pulled over the trembling little ringleader, then lifted his leg and kicked him to kneel on the ground. After that, he ordered him to apologize to Qingyao, otherwise, he would be executed on the spot.

  That man was frightened, and when Xiaowu said that, his whole body shook even more violently. He had already known the severity of the situation on the way he was being escorted over, because all of his subordinates were skilled fighters, but they still couldn't withstand the sudden attack by a few people and were beaten to the ground. So he knew very clearly what was happening now, and the sound of fighting and killing from upstairs at first made him even more afraid. He knew that after tonight, the Du She gang would definitely disappear from Haishi, and who would replace them was not something he could know.

  Thinking of this, the leader immediately kowtowed to Xuan Yao and started slapping his own ears while apologizing. After kneeling down, he scolded himself with harsh words until finally begging Xuan Yao for forgiveness.

  Qingyao was taken aback by such a scene, and her heart softened immediately. She still naively thought that this guy really wanted to repent, and she even thought about giving him another chance. Thinking of this, she generously didn't pursue those responsibilities anymore.

  However, she didn't pursue it, but Xiao Wu wouldn't let him off. With great enthusiasm, Xiao Wu had his subordinates take Qin Yao away, while he himself warmly pulled the leader towards another room. Shortly after, the crowd outside could hear that heart-wrenching and mournful wailing sound.

  Yan Hao had been watching from the side with a cold eye, but his slightly pale lips told everyone that his injury was not light and was getting worse. However, Xiao Wu didn't give him a good face, but with some pity, he picked him up and walked downstairs in big strides.

  Xiao Wu quickly reached the bottom of the building with Xiao Hao's strength, just as they were about to send him to the hospital. However, Yan Hao struggled and got up again, then leaned over to Xiao Wu's ear and whispered a few words before walking towards the car.

  Xiao Wu's face turned serious after hearing Yan Hao's words, and then he called over a brother to give him some instructions before taking Yan Hao back, but this time Xiao Wu's destination was not the hospital, but rather Wen Ji's home.

  Yuanhang was still gathering the last remnants, when he heard a brother whispering in his ear, followed by Yuanhang's face filled with smile. After a moment of consideration, he ordered: "Tell everyone, those who want to follow Huálóng gang must surrender and start from being a small brother. Those who don't... will be beaten until they're crippled. Alright, quickly settle this, the police will arrive soon." Yuanhang listened to Xiao Wu's suggestion and immediately gave the order to quickly resolve everything. He clearly knew that the police would definitely arrive soon, but only after his people had left, wasn't that how all the scenes were played out?

  The capital of China is still quite prosperous, after all, this is the country's capital, and there are countless high-ranking officials here. On the streets, you may run into someone who is a provincial governor or a mayor of a municipality.

  This morning, the capital of Hua Guo welcomed two people, Su Rui and Long Ji, who rushed to the capital overnight. The purpose of their visit was to request a meeting with the Dragon Squad, a special task force within the Shadow Organization. After all, Long had been staying in New York for a long time, alone in a place where dark forces were most powerful and chaotic, with many factions vying for power. Who knows what problems he might encounter there? The saying "there are always people outside" is indeed timeless.

  What confused Su Rui was that this time Long Ji took her to a place that wasn't towards the city center, but instead turned left and right and rushed to the suburbs.

  Su Rui couldn't understand why the Shadow Organization would be in a suburb outside of the capital, but looking at Long Ji's expression, she knew that her thoughts were probably correct.

  Soon, Long Di took Su Rui to a seemingly ordinary residential building and familiarly rang the doorbell on the first floor, then quietly waited for something.

  About a minute later, Long Ji pressed the doorbell again, and the door finally opened with a creak. However, it was not who they expected to see - two elderly people stood before them, looking quite old and frail as they took slow steps forward. They looked at Long Ji and Su Rui with confusion, but when their eyes landed on Long Ji, there was an almost imperceptible change in their expression.

  Su Rui was somewhat bewildered - had this guy gotten the location wrong? Was the home of these two elderly people really the headquarters of the Shadow Clan that he spoke of?

  Long Di looked at the two elderly people, his face somewhat uncertain, and finally seemed to have mustered up the courage to say: "Director Long Yuan, I'm really sorry to have you come here in person. It's just that this time, I and Miss Su have an important matter that requires the help of the Dragon Group, so please allow me to see Director Long Teng." Even though he lacked courage, Long Di's words were neither arrogant nor humble. He clearly knew that at present, he was definitely a defeated man in a foreign land; it was just unknown whether this director would let him pass.

  The old man seemed not to have heard what Long Ji said, and slowly walked into the house, then closed his own door, ignoring Long Ji.

  Seeing this, Long Ji carefully and hastily pulled Su Rui to close the door, and then rushed to the backyard. Su Rui was pulled by Long Ji so quickly that she didn't even have time to look at the facilities in the house, and soon followed him to a place that looked like... a toilet.

  In the backyard, there was a small house that looked exactly like a bathroom, but it seemed much larger than a normal bathroom. The toilet and bathing facilities were all complete inside.

  Long Jie, who was very familiar with the toilet lid, opened it and pressed a small mark in the center of the lid. Suddenly, a passageway that could only hold three people standing side by side appeared on the empty floor of the bathroom.

  "I knew it." Long Ji smiled and pulled Su Rui to walk down, since his fingerprint could open this door, it also meant that the Dragon Group had not temporarily cut him off from the organization, and he still had a place here. However, with Long Ji's current level, it was estimated that taking out a special functional person would not be a problem. Familiarly, he took Su Rui through the underground passage.

  Su Rui looked around the underground passageway, which was crisscrossing in all directions beneath the ground, appearing exceptionally grand. It seemed that only a superpower like Huaxia had the qualifications to build such a large passageway underground.

  All the way, Su Rui only found that there were only a few people moving here, and the others had not been discovered yet. The passage was just a bit too big.

  "This is the headquarters of the Shadow Organization's 12th Special Operations Unit. This passageway has a total area of 50 square kilometers, and it's 20 meters underground. The height of the passageway is about 8 meters. All the buildings here are only one story high, with over 10,000 rooms in total. There are more than 8,000 people working here, excluding the 12 members of the unit. They're responsible for a lot more than what you see here. Come on up." Long walked to a small railcar and beckoned Su Rui to get on.

  The car drove very fast, and Su Rui couldn't even see any place outside the track all the way. Soon, the car stopped, and Long Di took Su Rui to a room again, which was a room he had often entered before.

  Still leaning on Longji's fingerprint to open the door, Longji was still pulling Su Rui through this underground passage, turning seven times and eight times, until they stopped in front of a door.

  Then he pressed a small button on the door, and finally put his fingerprint on it. The room was quickly opened, but Long Di took Su Rui in and sat down to wait quietly for something.

  Longji had pressed the small button earlier, Su Rui still recognized it. After all, he was also an assassin by origin, although his level wasn't great, but his experience was extraordinary. Those small buttons usually led to various rooms underground, used as alarms, such as during meetings, notifications could be saved. Su Rui had also heard legends about the Long group, they were all extraordinary people who often locked themselves in small rooms, cultivating and researching their own martial arts and special abilities, rarely seen by others.

  Soon, the door was opened and a big man who looked only in his thirties walked in, followed by only two people, an icy beauty with a face as cold as snow, and a guy who looked dull and numb, walking in with a blank expression, without even greeting anyone, he sat down alone.

  The big Han who came in first seemed to be somewhat surprised, but after taking a closer look at Long Ji, he let out a burst of excitement. It turned out that this guy hadn't died and had returned to the Dragon Group, which was great news! After all, with him back, their tasks in the ordinary world would become much easier.

  Sorry about that, I lost track of time at work, after all Xiao Feng also needs to eat, so this chapter is a bit late. Hmm, the second chapter will be released six hours later, estimated to be around 23:50.

  A final call, book friends who think it's good-looking, so as not to miss this book next time.
