Chapter 27: Top-grade Informant

  The passageway behind the iron gate was not complicated, straightforward and much easier to walk than the high platform. Shen Qingyang carried Qi Huan swiftly through the passageway, his right hand holding his ninja sword, his eyes wide open, taking in the situation inside the passageway at a glance.

  This is a dedicated passage for fighting beasts, the air inside is murky, with a musty smell mixed with a strong urine odor, just like entering an animal pen. Fortunately, the passage is not long and it takes only two minutes to reach the end.

  It was another iron gate, but it wasn't locked. Probably because they had forgotten to lock it when they were transporting the black dog earlier. Shen Qingyang only realized he had reached the ground after passing through the iron gate smoothly. It should be the backyard of the "Tianze Garden" building, with many cages around, but there were not many wild beasts inside, probably most of them had been tortured to death.

  The noise outside the courtyard grew louder, and Shen Qingyang knew that the other party had already taken action. He couldn't stay for long, but he was unfamiliar with this place, so he could only climb over the wall and slip out of Tianyaze Garden. The dirty and chaotic streets were crowded with people, mostly gathered around Tianyaze Garden to watch the commotion, but many of them were security guards from Tianyaze Garden, easily identifiable by their uniforms.

  Shen Qingyang carried Qi Huan into the alley, and only felt a little tired after leaving the crowd. Today's events were complicated, and there were still many unsolved mysteries until now.

  For example, this guy, why did he participate in the cruel gladiatorial combat? Is he short of money? Impossible! A great thief lacks a target, stimulation, and so on, but will never be short of money! For instance, that mastiff, who does it belong to? How can it be so confident that it can win the victory? And what about the woman in the VIP box with the precious package, who is she? Is she an undercover agent from Interpol?

  Never mind! At least I've caught up with the person I wanted to find. First, go to Cuixianju to find Yaobo, and then decide what to do next!

  Just as they were walking, a beam of light suddenly flashed in front of them. Shen Qing was startled for a moment and saw that it was a taxi!

  "Damn it! So organized and disciplined!" Shen Qingyang took a look at the license plate and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it was the taxi that brought him to Cao City!

  "Brother, I'm broke!" Shen Qingyang tossed Qi Huan into the car and joked as he got in.

  "If you don't have money, then give up your life!" a gloomy voice came over.

  Damn it! What kind of world is this? Can't afford the fare and have to give up one's life? Shen Qingyang's right hand, holding a black ninja sword, involuntarily pressed against the driver's neck: "Where are we going? You know!"

  What's going on? Who knows where this honorable god has gone?!

  "Hey, little brother, this knife isn't for fooling around..."

  The car drove through an arc and into another small alley. The sky was pitch black and it started raining.

  "Your speed is quite fast!" Shen Qingyang looked at Old Man De with slanted eyes, discovering that the old fellow wasn't that old after all!

  "Cui Xian Ju" hotel is located in the east of Cao Shi, a very secluded place. Unlike "Tian Ze Yuan", there are almost no people walking around the entire area. The taxi drove directly into the courtyard of "Cui Xian Ju", where someone was already waiting to receive us.

  "Send him to the sea of blue!" Hubert ordered in a low voice.

  Shen Qingyang waved his hand: "There's someone inside waiting for your news. I need to interrogate this guy first, and then it'll be your turn to deal with him!"

  "Hey! Young man, what do you want to ask him?" Old Man Yu's eyes rolled, and his tone of voice was somewhat out of place.

  "Find what I lost!"

  "That thing has already been sold by him for $350,000!"

  "How did you know?"

  "It's all connected!"

  "What's tomorrow's mission, do you know?" Shen Qingyang sneered.

  "Imperial Hotel!"

  "Bullshit! The Emperor Hotel is a pit of fire, and you're jumping in? Use your brain, don't be like this guy, getting played and still having the nerve to die with dignity!"

  Yu Bo no longer spoke, this young man was not only crazy and bloodthirsty, but also had a mind that was so deep it was terrifying!

  Two people, one in front and one behind, entered the single room of Cuixianju's backyard. To be specific, there were three people - Qi Hao had already woken up, Shen Qingyang pressed him on the wine table, his tendons had been severed, and he basically had no ability to move, even if he wanted to run, it was unlikely!

  Zhi Hao's face was covered in blood, and so were his hands. It was unclear whether it was human or dog blood. Shen Qingyang was also drenched in blood, but after a hot water bath arranged by Ah Bao, he changed into a "Chinese collar" identical to the one bought for Xiang'er, and sat opposite Zhi Hao, playing with the only spoils of war that brought him some comfort tonight - a black ninja sword!

  "Tian Di Tong" Hu De Cai has not arrived yet, it is currently half past eleven at night, there is still half an hour left.

  "Ghost thief, where did this thing come from?" Shen Qingyang narrowed his eyes and took a look at Qi Huan. This guy looked a bit like that cripple from that night, only cleaner, although he was still as pale as a blood gourd, but more pleasant to look at than the dead cripple's appearance!

  Zhi Hao raised his eyelids slightly and didn't make a sound.

  Damn! Isn't a dead pig afraid of boiling water? Shen Qingyang blew a breath on the knife, producing a sharp metallic sound, indeed it's a good knife!

  There are ways to deal with people like him, such as making him lick a knife blade or something!

  Yu Bo's face was expressionless as he stared at Qi Huan. He had been chasing him for a year, and didn't expect it to end like this. If Shen Qingyang were to deal with this guy, he'd probably cut out his tongue and feed it to the dogs!

  "This knife is ordinary!" Ah-yi glanced at the black sharp blade, and his heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.

  Shen Qingyang had used quite a few military knives, both long and short, including the short dagger lent to him by Dumb Er, but that thing was eaten by a dog!

  "This is a Japanese samurai sword!" Shen Qingyang thoughtfully looked at Qi Huan: "Where did you get it from? Stolen? Where was it stolen from? How was it stolen? Who is the owner? Is he Japanese or Chinese?"

  What a load of nonsense! Since it's a Japanese sword, who cares if it's autumn rain or green frost, just take it!

  Shen Qingyang doesn't think so! What is Zhonghai? The international anti-China center! Therefore - you understand!

  The international political arena is changing, and Southeast Asia has become an anti-China center for a reason. No matter how Chinese people were struggling here hundreds of years ago - of course, Vietnamese, Koreans, or Japanese are also indispensable! The deep-seated national complex has always been in their hearts, no matter whether they are the descendants of Yan and Huang or the rubbish nation of that small country, they will take this place as a place for prosperity and survival.

  Inter-ethnic contradictions are not formed in one or two days. The differences in national culture and national character have created eternal estrangement between different ethnic groups. When this estrangement turns into hatred, it will be vented out. Moreover, Southeast Asia, which was once the source of the Asian financial crisis, has indigenous residents and these foreigners who hold economic wealth, which is full of contradictions——these are basically nonsense!

  Exclusion of Chinese is traditional, anti-Chinese sentiment is a conspiracy!

  Shen Qingyang glared at Qi Huan: "If you don't speak up, I'll let you taste the blade's edge!"

  Not even tasting it yet, Qi Huan's mouth corner had already flowed out fresh blood. His eyeballs rolled over to Shen Qingyang: "An escaped soldier is actually so fierce?"

  Shen Qingyang's face turned green! Am I a deserter? Yes, escaped from the African jungle, what about it?!

  "Haha! You know too much!" Shen Qingyang examined the blade, killing him would be too simple, if he had known earlier, it would have been better to torture him at the Paradise Club and get that 300 million dollars!

  Yu Bo furrowed his brow, the young man in front of him was indeed a soldier, although he cooked authentic Sichuan dishes, this was what excited him the most - a versatile and multi-talented special forces soldier!

  "Steal my things, scold me as a deserter, and still dare to be hard-mouthed!" Before Shen Qingyang's words had fallen, the knife in his hand had already swung out, and on the plate on the table was added another dish - blood-stirred human ear!

  Zi Hao let out a loud "ahh" and fainted, anyone would be like that if their ear was torn off! You can't show mercy to such a bastard, what's the point of just slapping him twice or giving him one punch? That's just nonsense! In Shen Qing Yang's eyes, when dealing with these gangsters, there is only one word "cruel", two words - even more cruel!

  Yu Bo's face was expressionless as he grunted: "Gui Tou Qi, do you want to go back or stay?"

  Groundless questioning. But Qi Huan suddenly stopped his wailing, his furious eyes almost bulging out: "Chen..."

  "Shut up and listen to me! I don't care who he is, but you're still in his hands. You stole something from someone and sold it, so understand that first before talking to me!"

  "Damn it!"

  Shen Qingyang nodded in agreement with Yu Bo's words.

  "Zi Hao, you and I have no grudges, why the hell are you setting traps for me as soon as my plane lands? A green card is worthless, it's like a college diploma, useful for finding a job but useless when you're a murderer! A $350,000 bounty is nothing to a big thief!"

  "You stole my things and sold them to the Emperor Hotel, and then you took the money to the arena to kill me. This is the first time I've seen such a ruthless heart! But you didn't succeed, now it's up to me to dispose of you, what else do you have to say?"

  Shen Qingyang's words were reasonable and did not allow for Qi Huan's sophistry. However, Shen Qingyang deliberately left out one person or a group of people - Qi Huan's backstage boss! Why was this omitted? It is still unknown who is secretly plotting against him, whether it is Interpol or the local underworld in Zhonghai. Everything cannot be judged yet.

  Zi Huan covered his bleeding left cheek, his face pale. This guy was indeed not as old as he pretended to be a cripple beggar that day, and even looked younger.

  "Someone pays, so I do!" This was the first thing that Zhi Hua said. Shen Qing Yang pondered for a moment and felt that the voice didn't sound quite right. On the day he drank with him, this guy's Mandarin was very fluent!

  "So, in a while, I'll send you to someone!"

  Yu Bo took a glance at his watch and nodded to Shen Qingyang: "It's time!"

  Shen Qingyang leaned back in his chair, lit a cigarette and admired the samurai sword. The sword was indeed good-looking, but it didn't have any blood on it, however, it lacked a scabbard, making it easy to cut himself. After thinking for a moment, he flung the sword onto the table, pinning it in front of Qi Huan, causing a buzzing sound!

  "Uncle Mu, I've had enough. Do whatever you want with the Tianyuan Alliance!" After saying that, he stood up and sneered: "I'm a deserter, now it's time for me to take care of my own affairs!"

  Zi Hao's face was covered in blood, one ear had been torn off, and his hearing was severely impaired. He stared at Shen Qingyang with fear, his lips bitten until they bled! This guy was simply a madman, the scene in the Heaven Club made him completely believe this point.

  "Where are you going?"

  "Go to Tianze Garden!" This time the tyrant's meal wasn't satisfying!

  Yu Bo shook his head. This guy went to collect "rent", and no one could stop him! Shen Qingyang stood up, turned around without looking back, and walked out of Cuixian Residence.

  Just two minutes after Shen Qingyang left, Cuixianju had another guest: Tianditong Hu Decai!

  Hudai was very punctual, giving Yaobo a day's time, and now it's just right! The two arrived at the elegant room in the back garden of Cuixianju. Qi Huan inside had fainted, don't know if it was due to being choked or excessive blood loss.

  "That's him!" Ah-bao's wrinkled face wore a humble smile: "Do you know him?"

  Hud Cai's face turned lewd, and upon seeing Qi Hua's "celebrity face", he was clearly startled. His turbid old eyes sized him up: "What's going on? Your wrist tendon is broken, and you're missing an ear!"

  "In the plate!" Ah-yin hunched his back and slammed his mouth: "The person has already been found for you, not a single piece is missing, one million should be mine now?!"

  "Hmph!" Tian Di Tong's old face twitched, finding "Gui Tou Qi" wasn't the ultimate goal, Boss said it was about that something 3rd! This guy had almost become a useless person, let alone being the infamous "Ghostly Thief" of the Zhong Hai in the past, now even letting him make an open grab would be strenuous. What did Boss want him to do? However...

  "You're really reliable! Of course, that money is yours, and you also have the right to ask me for the next clue, how about it?"

  Yu Bo smiled slightly, "Tian Di Tong" he had heard of it before, but they weren't in the same league, and according to the rules of the alliance, for ten years he only did some collection work, his information was very rich, not afraid that he would come up with another difficult problem!

  "Want me to find Hunter No. 3?" Tian Di Tong stared at Lao's old face: "I need more specific clues, otherwise I'm afraid it won't go as you wish!"

  "Not!" Tian Di Tong pressed his voice down: "This time's mission isn't finding a person, but an object!"

  Yu Bo was stunned for a moment, and he had guessed everything. From the information provided by "Tian Di Tong" yesterday, it should be about finding talent, but... how did it change?

  "What's that?"

  "Violet Gold Card!"

  "What is that thing?"

  "I don't know!" Tian Di Tong's face turned gloomy: "I reckon it's a bank card or some other kind of card!"

  "Heh heh! How much does it cost?"

  "After it's done, the two million in the jade card is yours! By the way, where's that jade card?"

  Yu Bo's old face was as calm as water, and after fumbling in his pocket for half a day, he finally pulled out the card and flashed it in front of Tian Di Tong: "This thing was originally meant to be given to Gui Tou Qi, but now it seems there's no need for that!"
