Chapter 763 - 898 to 907

What?" Gu Chuan stood up abruptly when she heard about Qin Jiang's attack, looking at her assistant with extreme anxiety: "Is Bai Lu alright?"

The assistant said, "Qin Jiang is fine... wait... who are you asking about?" He looked up at President Gu, bewildered. "I just reported to you about Qin Jiang's attack, why are you suddenly asking about Bai Lu? This turn... it's not right!"

Gu Chuan glared at the assistant: "I'm asking you a question..."

The assistant replied, "Ah... she's fine! Reportedly, only one Black Dragon security guard's life is unknown after protecting Qin Jiang, and Wei Biao, also known as Si Jiu, sustained some injuries. That's all... President Gu, you wouldn't believe how dangerous the scene was. Qin Jiang almost got crippled, and that Si Jiu was incredibly fierce; he jumped straight to the second floor and threw the attacker down..."

The assistant spoke incessantly.

Unfortunately, Gu Chuan didn't pay much attention. She only breathed a sigh of relief after learning Bai Lu was fine: "Who would dare to attack Qin Jiang at this time? Tiger Might shouldn't have the guts. Is it other forces trying to fish in troubled waters... or..."

"Qin Jiang, though he acts with principles and discretion, ultimately has one foot in the underworld. There's always danger when you're in that line of work. Bai Lu too... but unfortunately... she won't leave..."

At this moment, the assistant looked at the murmuring Gu Chuan, completely bewildered. Why was President Gu not focusing on Qin Jiang but frequently mentioning Bai Lu? Meanwhile, news of Qin Jiang's speech at Song University and the subsequent attack spread everywhere.

However, the incident of Qin Jiang's attack did not cause too much of a stir. After all, Qin Jiang himself was not harmed, and Song University restricted the spread of this news. Coupled with the many legends of violence and fighting in Xinjiang, people only treated it as a topic for after-dinner conversation and didn't dwell on the details. The underworld, after all, is just like that!

But Qin Jiang's speech caused a huge uproar.

Especially those two sentences:

"Businesses have no borders, but entrepreneurs have a country!"

"Those who disregard workers should be condemned by all!"

...These two sentences dropped two bombs in the business world. The speculative conclusions about the internet and physical industries were criticized and disbelieved by countless business tycoons. One Group CEO scoffed, "Haha... nonsense! The physical industry will be crushed by the internet? What rubbish! Just relying on the ethereal internet? I think that thing is just a passing fad and won't last long... And buying everything with a phone... How does he sell it? How do you buy it? Who would trust this thing to be used as money..."

He shook his phone, his face full of disbelief... Another business tycoon retorted, "Who was he talking to with all those grand, empty words at the speech? What 'entrepreneurs have a country,' huh! As if he's the only one who understands righteousness. He got attacked, didn't he? Serves him right! Someone who rose from the underworld should just keep a low profile. I think someone like him might end up dead in the wilderness, unavenged, any day now. An entrepreneur! He doesn't deserve it! He says working is good, so why doesn't he give all his money to the workers..."

A senior executive reminded him, "Actually... the Black Dragon Group's treatment of workers is indeed the best in Bei Province. Six insurances, two funds, various legal holidays, holiday benefits... annual leave..."

A hint of envy flashed in his eyes. How many workers in Bei Province didn't envy the Black Dragon Group's benefits? Even as a senior executive, he was incredibly envious. In terms of equivalent positions, the Black Dragon Group definitely paid more.

"That's all fake... just using a bit of money to fool the lower ranks. If he's so capable, why doesn't he actually give out shares..."

The senior executive said, "You might not know that Qin Jiang really does give out shares... According to the information we've received, Black Dragon employees with over two years of service can receive a certain percentage of original shares..."

The business tycoon said, "If he's so good, then you go work for him..."

The senior executive replied, "I would never dream of it..."

The business tycoon said, "I wouldn't expect you to dare..."

...Some business tycoons were more in agreement: "'Entrepreneurs have a country,' well said! Yes! Chinese entrepreneurs should have such a broad mind..."

"This is a responsible entrepreneur. He was able to grow not just by destiny; he truly has great insights..."

"The internet is clearly a major trend... If it can truly achieve what he said, the future will absolutely be a massive wave."

"It seems... I too must make plans soon..."

...There were supporters, opponents, and those who scoffed.

Among them, those who didn't take it seriously were the most numerous!

A speech, right!

Someone always says some grand and empty words. They believed Qin Jiang's speech was likely the same. However, Qin Jiang's speech spread widely on various university forums. Qin Jiang himself was a university student, and seeing a current university student establish a multi-billion-dollar enterprise and eloquently discuss future trends naturally made fellow university students pay more attention. Moreover, the Black Dragon Website was originally a relatively large online forum, and its popular video section pinned Qin Jiang's speech video for a long time, causing this video to spread wildly in universities.

How to put it!

Perhaps some people didn't pay special attention to Qin Jiang's speech video, but they were more or less aware of the content of Qin Jiang's speech:

The internet crushing the physical industry!

Jobs becoming harder to find!

Phones can buy everything!

The internet is a massive trend!

Entrepreneurs have a country!

...and so on.

These impressions mean little now, but as the internet rises wildly and phones become increasingly powerful, the value of the speech will continuously increase, until it is revered as:

"Top Ten Speeches of China: Qin Jiang, China's True Entrepreneur, on the Rise and Fall of the Business World Over a Century."

It was even used as a classic analytical textbook by many university finance and economics departments to teach students.

This made Qin Jiang's future reputation grow larger and larger... Because of this speech, the higher-ups also had a very good impression of Qin Jiang, allowing the Black Dragon Group to develop more smoothly.

Of course.

These are all future events... The current Qin Jiang is unaware of the immense impact his speech had on the outside world. He is currently at the hospital, waiting for his brother... to return!

...Hospital.

Yu Mo had just finished her rounds and returned to the nurses' station.

She saw.

A Group of nurses occasionally glancing towards the operating room in the hallway, somewhat distracted from their work. She couldn't help but frown and say, "What are you doing? What's so interesting about the operating room?"

"Shh..." A nurse lowered her voice and pointed towards the hallway: "Sister Yu Mo, look..."

Yu Mo took two steps forward and also looked towards the operating room in the hallway.

In the hallway!

A large number of young men in black suits were standing densely. Their faces were cold, and their eyes constantly scanned various directions of the operating room, looking very vigilant and grim.

And in the center of these young men in black suits, a young man also dressed in a black suit sat there. His clothes were clearly different from the others, and his entire demeanor was very imposing. Just sitting there, he made people feel he was extraordinary.

That person was sitting there, head slightly bowed, smoking a cigarette, his gaze occasionally directed towards the illuminated operating room...

What's going on?" Yu Mo asked, her expression startled.

A nurse explained, "It's said that Qin Jiang, the Chairman of Black Dragon Group, was attacked, and one of his subordinates took a fatal blow for him. The man sitting there is Qin Jiang, and the one seriously injured is undergoing surgery inside. As soon as they arrived, they sealed off that area. Several head directors from our hospital have gone in for a joint consultation and surgery…"

Qin Jiang attacked!

Someone seriously injured!

Joint consultation!

…These few sentences made Yu Mo's expression change slightly.

After all,

Her boyfriend, Ye Ze, seemed to have some connection with Qin Jiang. Although it was unclear whether they were friends or foes, there was definitely a connection, so she naturally paid more attention to news about Qin Jiang.

A nurse said, "This is the first time I've seen something like this in real life. It's really so oppressive…"

Another nurse nodded, "It's even more imposing than what you see on TV. Just sitting there, he looks like a big boss."

A nurse added, "It looks like he really cares about his brother undergoing surgery inside. Is this the brotherhood among Jianghu people…?"

These nurses whispered among themselves, looking at the situation before them.

Nurses!

They are naturally in an industry that loves gossip the most.

Moreover, Qin Jiang is a top boss in Bei Province, so who wouldn't gossip about his affairs?

A nurse suddenly remembered, "By the way, Sister Yu Mo! Did you talk to your boyfriend about that matter with Qin Jiang?"

Yu Mo asked, "What matter?"

The nurse replied, "It's about Director Wang and Feifei… See if your boyfriend can talk to Qin Jiang… We just hope she stops pestering Director Wang. Director Wang is too pitiful…"

Yu Mo said, "That matter… I did mention it…"

She really had told Ye Ze about Director Wang. Ye Ze said he would find a way, of course, what Ye Ze meant by finding a way was to find someone to handle their divorce, which wouldn't be difficult given Ye Ze's connections.

Nurse A asked, "You did?… So when can it be done?"

Yu Mo said, "Didn't you see that Qin Jiang's brother had an accident? Such a small matter will probably have to be postponed…"

Nurse A exclaimed, "Ah… postponed?… Can't it be expedited?"

Yu Mo said, "That's enough…" She patted Nurse A's shoulder, hinting, "Impatience won't get you anywhere."

The other nurses also chuckled, looking at Nurse A.

Director Wang!

A dignified chief physician! Although he was married, he was definitely a hot commodity. It was just Feifei who didn't know how to cherish him. There were countless people in the entire hospital who had an eye on him. Nurse A was clearly one of them, obviously hoping that Director Wang would quickly break up with Feifei so she could fill the void.

Nurse A said, "Oh dear… Sister Yu Mo… What are you saying…?"

Yu Mo waved her hand, "Keep your gossip a little quieter. Remember, don't go near there unless there's a special situation."

The nurses nodded.

They didn't need Yu Mo to remind them; they knew that area was a forbidden zone. So many people were on the verge of exploding. If they blindly approached and provoked anger, wouldn't they be asking for trouble?

Besides, that was the operating room; what would they go there for?… Suddenly, a nurse pointed at the stairs and exclaimed, "Ah… So many people…"

Everyone immediately looked towards the stairs.

They saw another large Group of young people in black formal attire running over. The leader was a young man with a small braid, followed by others who were all imposing and exuded a powerful sense of oppression.

It was:

Zhu Zheng, Wang Tao, Zhao Shanhe, and others… "Good heavens, so many more people are coming…"

"This really stirred up a hornet's nest…"

"Are these the high-ranking members of Black Dragon Group? They all look so young? Are they really students…?"

"It's hard to imagine these people could establish such a huge Black Dragon Group… Why didn't I attend Vocational University back then…?"

Many nurses were very emotional. Black Dragon Group is a truly top-tier business Group in Songjiang, with a market value of over ten billion. The Group's boss, Qin Jiang, and his veteran members are all in their early twenties, which is legendary. When such people suddenly appear before them, how could they not be moved, or even regret not having attended Vocational University?

After all,

The vast majority of them graduated from junior colleges, and some were just interns, with their future full-time employment still uncertain.

It could be said:

Their prospects were worrying!

So they regretted not attending Vocational University! Otherwise, they would have had the chance to join Black Dragon Group, and perhaps become the next Bai Lu.

Yu Mo rolled her eyes:

Did they really think anyone who joined Black Dragon could become a big boss? Legends are called legends precisely because they are irreplicable. Bai Lu joined and became the financial head of Black Dragon Group! But when it came to them, not to mention whether they could join Black Dragon even if they got into Vocational University, even if they joined Black Dragon, they might be eliminated, and if not eliminated, they might end up like the person in the operating room…!

People always fantasize about paths they haven't taken!

…Whoosh… Zhu Zheng led his people towards the operating room.

Seeing Zhu Zheng lead Zhao Shanhe and others, the Black Dragon Personnel guarding the operating room quickly cleared a path:

"Zheng Ge!"

"Zheng Ge!"

"…"

Zhu Zheng and the others ignored these people and quickly came before Qin Jiang:

"Jiang Ge!"

"Jiang Ge!"

"…"

Whoosh… Qin Jiang looked up, exhaled a smoke ring, and said in a slightly hoarse voice:

"A Zheng is here…"

Listening to Qin Jiang's hoarse voice, Zhu Zheng, Zhao Shanhe, and all the other Black Dragon Personnel felt a jolt in their hearts. In their eyes, Jiang Ge had always been calm and composed; never had he looked so haggard.

Zhu Zheng asked, "Where is He You…?"

Zhang Chi replied, "He's undergoing surgery inside. The doctor said the injury is close to his heart, making it extremely dangerous. If he hadn't been brought in promptly, he most likely would have died on the way. Even now, they aren't very confident. They are currently doing their best to save him…"

"Damn it…"

Zhu Zheng's expression was very gloomy.

Zhao Shanhe angrily said, "Damn it, it must be that Tiger Might. Jiang Ge! Give the order! I'll immediately lead people to flatten him…"

Feng Lin said, "I've already had the Transportation Department gather their people. As long as Jiang Ge gives the order, I guarantee we can flatten Tiger Might within two hours and bring Wang Wei and his son, Wang Xuan, to Jiang Ge to await his disposal."

Sun Yuan, Shen Tianci, and others also angrily spoke of revenge.

Zhu Zheng didn't object either.

This incident had touched Black Dragon's reverse scale. Assassinating Jiang Ge in broad daylight and leaving their brother's life hanging in the balance.

If an uncle can endure, an aunt cannot!!!

…Qin Jiang, however, raised his hand to stop them: "He You's revenge must be exacted, and it must be thorough, but not now!" He knew that this matter had escalated and attracted the attention of all parties in Songjiang. Currently, Black Dragon should remain calm and not act rashly. Everything had to wait until Bai Meng's side had thoroughly investigated.

Tiger Might!

He truly felt it might not be them!

Instead… could it be a third-party force interfering? Just like how a certain force initially intended to provoke a conflict between Tiger Might and Black Dragon to reap the benefits.

Before they could say anything more,

Qin Jiang said:

"Let's go… Let's go see Si Jiu first!"

Right! Si Jiu!

Zhu Zheng: "Where's Si Jiu..."

He looked left and right but didn't see Si Jiu. It wasn't that he didn't care about him; he had received news earlier that Si Jiu had only suffered minor injuries in the attack and had even driven himself to the hospital. But hearing Jiang Ge mention Si Jiu made him a little worried.

Zhao Shanhe and the others were also extremely anxious, saying:

"That's right! Where's Si Jiu Ge! Is he okay...?"

"I heard his arm was injured... what about other places...?"

"..."

As for He You, they had only met him once or twice and weren't very familiar with him. It was only because he had distinguished himself in rescuing Jiang Ge and was now critically injured and in surgery that their attention had been entirely focused on him.

Now, realizing that Si Jiu was also injured, they all became extremely anxious.

After all:

They had a genuinely deep bond with Si Jiu. When they used to get into fights, Si Jiu had rescued them countless times. If it weren't for Si Jiu, Zhao Shanhe, Feng Lin, and the others would each have several more scars on their bodies.

Fortunately, Zhang Chi immediately replied: "Si Jiu Ge is fine; he just has a severe abrasion on his arm and is getting it bandaged in the next room."

At these words,

Zhu Zheng, Zhao Shanhe, and the others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Let's go..."

Qin Jiang slowly got up and walked to the next room. Zhu Zheng, Zhao Shanhe, Feng Lin, and the others immediately followed.

Zhang Chi ordered most of the Black Dragon Personnel: "You all stay here and ensure the safety of He You Ge."

"Yes!"

The Black Dragon Personnel nodded.

Zhang Chi took the remaining Black Dragon Personnel and followed. He knew it wasn't good for so many people to follow. He You was in surgery, and they also needed to leave people behind in case a doctor came out, so they could receive news immediately... The treatment room was not far next door.

Inside, Si Jiu sat there like a mountain, while the doctor carefully cleaned and bandaged his wound, taking every step with extreme caution, not because of Si Jiu's identity, but because of the special nature of the injury.

How many gunshot wounds does a doctor encounter in a lifetime!

Fortunately, Si Jiu's arm had only been grazed, tearing off a bit of skin, and it wasn't very serious. As long as it was cleaned and bandaged, he would be fine.

At this moment,

Qin Jiang led the group to the outside of the treatment room. Seeing Si Jiu inside, looking hale and hearty, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Jiang stopped them from entering the treatment room: "Everyone wait outside. Too many people mean too many germs!"

Inside, Si Jiu turned to look at Qin Jiang, revealing a simple and honest smile:

"Jiang Ge... I'm really fine..."

He was about to wave his arm to demonstrate, making the doctor who was bandaging him break into a sweat: "Hey... hey... don't move... it's not bandaged yet..."

Si Jiu: "Hehe..."

A few minutes later,

The doctor finished bandaging and breathed a sigh of relief: "Done! You need to disinfect it every so often. Don't let it get wet during this time, it's easy to get infected. Eat light meals, and avoid spicy foods."

Si Jiu nodded and got up to walk out.

Suddenly, a commotion came from not far away: "Damn it... my head is bleeding, hurry up and bandage it for me! Where's the doctor...?"

Then he saw.

A bald man clutching his bleeding head, cursing as he walked towards them... Nurse: "Sir... Dr. Zhou's treatment room is occupied. Dr. Wang's treatment room is empty, I'll take you there..."

Bald Man: "What Dr. Wang? I don't know him. I only want Dr. Zhou to stitch me up. Only he can handle it..."

Nurse: "Then I'll clean your wound first and then take you to Dr. Zhou's treatment room for stitching. That way, we won't waste time, sir... The treatment room really is occupied... Please come back with me first..."

The bald man roared: "What occupied or not occupied? I don't care if it's occupied or not, deal with me first... I'm important." He was accompanied by several hooligan-like youths who couldn't stop arguing with the nurse:

"You're busy! We're familiar with this place, we don't need you to lead the way, and we don't need you to clean our big brother's wound..."

"Exactly! Can you clean it properly? My big brother has a black snake tattooed on his head that cost a fortune, it represents his luck and life. If you don't clean it properly and in time, and you mess up my big brother's black snake tattoo, can you afford to compensate him?"

"Get out of the way... get out of the way..."

They pushed the nurse to make her leave.

The bald man, clutching his head, strode towards the treatment room, clearly familiar with the way, needing no guidance. He was a local thug who made money by helping people settle disputes, so he often got into fights and was naturally familiar with the hospital. Every month, he or his younger brothers would come here a few times. It was precisely because he was daring and willing to fight that he had a bit of a reputation in the area, and few people sought him out to settle disputes. Today, he took on a big job, going to help a transportation company settle a matter, but the other party brought a group of people.

Originally, the two sides had a 50/50 split of profits, but under Black Snake's forceful argument, it became a 30/70 split!

The other party got seven!

How could the proud Black Snake tolerate this? He immediately started a fight. Although he eventually fought with a desperate intensity that made the other party agree to return to the original 50/50 split before negotiations, he still got his head split open. Although it was only a superficial wound, it was precisely on the seven-inch mark of his black snake tattoo on his head.

People in the underworld are particularly particular about these things... His nickname, Black Snake, came from the black snake tattoo he got when he first started out! In his eyes, the black snake was him, and he had even had his fortune told once: they said he was protected by the black snake, that he would exist as long as the black snake existed, and he would cease to exist if the black snake ceased to exist... The black snake was his guardian deity. Now that his guardian deity, the black snake, had been cut at its seven-inch mark, resulting in a laceration scar, how could he not be anxious? At this hospital, he only knew that Dr. Zhou's stitching skills were excellent. Several times when he was injured, the doctor had treated him, and after stitching, there were practically no visible scars. It was said that he used some kind of... scarless suturing method, which was incredibly impressive, far better than what his younger brothers could do. Now, all he could think about was finding the doctor to stitch up the black snake, to continue his destiny.

Of course, he only dared to shout a few words and did not lay a hand on the nurse. He understood what he could and could not do.

Being in the underworld was all about knowing your place. A large, top-tier hospital like this was not a place where a small-time thug like him could cause trouble.

Nurse: "Sir... sir... someone is really in there... You can't afford to offend that person, that person has a lot of connections..."

Black Snake was extremely anxious and couldn't hear the nurse's words: "Who cares who it is? No matter who is inside, they have to stitch up my seven-inch first... Otherwise, I'll be completely finished..."

Hearing Black Snake's extremely anxious and irritable voice, the nurse could only say: "Um... let me ask for you, okay...?"

Black Snake shouted:

"Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother!"

"Big Brother..."

"Big Brother..."

The two brothers responded.

Black Snake: "Quick! You two run ahead and clear out the treatment room. Give the person inside five hundred yuan and tell them I need to be stitched first... Damn it... I'm bleeding so much my head is getting a little dizzy... Hurry..."

"Alright..."

Upon receiving the order, the two were about to rush into the treatment room first.

Seeing this, the nurse was about to say something, but a sudden change occurred ahead, and she suddenly widened her eyes... Then she saw.

Old Fourth and Old Fifth, who had been aggressively preparing to rush into the treatment room, froze. No, not just Old Fourth and Old Fifth; all the other thuggish hooligans were also stunned, and even Black Snake, clutching his head, stood motionless.

Each of them looked as if they had seen a ghost and were subjected to a petrifying spell!

What's going on?

The Nurse paused and looked ahead, seeing many young men in black formal attire standing at the entrance of the treatment room.

Some of the young men in black were surrounding seven or eight people in the middle, and among those seven or eight, three were particularly distinctive.

One had a small braid and held a folding fan!

One was two meters tall with a bandaged arm!

The last one, and the most distinctive, was a young man with a cold expression and eyes that seemed to flicker with light.

At this moment,

the three were standing in a triangular formation, and from their position, it seemed they were waiting for the person to be bandaged, which was the burly man with the bandaged arm.

Unlike the bewildered Nurse,

Black Snake and the others in front were completely stunned, their brains short-circuited.

Who did they see?

Who were those people in front? Black clothes, black pants, black sunglasses—wasn't this the standard attire of the Black Dragon Group?

Then, looking at Zhao Shanhe and the others... Black Snake and his crew nearly collapsed to the ground, clearly recognizing the identities of Zhao Shanhe and the others.

Especially Zhao Shanhe and Feng Lin!

As the heads of the Black Dragon Group's Security Department and Transportation Department, they frequently appeared in public and were well-known in the underground circles of Songjiang. Many people involved in such circles recognized them. For such high-level bosses to appear before them, and most importantly, to be surrounding others...

Then... the identity of the person being surrounded was self-evident.

Indeed!

Looking at the one with the small braid holding a fan, then at Si Jiu, who was two meters tall, and the one guarded in the center...

The identities of the three were clear:

Black Dragon: Qin Jiang!

Zhuge: Zhu Zheng!

God of War: Si Jiu!

...And seeing the bandage on Si Jiu's arm, and the fact that he had just come out of the treatment room, how could Black Snake not guess the situation?

Clearly, Dr. Zhou was treating Si Jiu's wound, and powerful figures like Qin Jiang and Zhu Zheng were waiting.

Damn it!

How is this possible?

How could Si Jiu be injured? He was one of the three most powerful bosses of the Black Dragon Group, a presence whose stomp could make the Songjiang underground tremble. Who would dare to injure him? Could it be Tiger Might... the higher-ups... were they fighting again...? For a moment, Black Snake's mind raced, and at the same time, his feet moved decisively; without any hesitation, he turned and left.

Not just Black Snake! His other subordinates also followed without hesitation, turning and walking back.

It was a perfectly synchronized movement!

It was clean and swift!

After all:

Given the Black Dragon Group's prestige in Songjiang, it was impossible for anyone not to recognize them, nor would there be a clichéd situation where Qin Jiang needed to state his identity to command respect. Qin Jiang was like a scorching sun in Songjiang now.

Standing there:

Everyone knew him, everyone recognized him!

At this moment,

the Nurse looked utterly bewildered. Just now, in her sight, Black Snake and his group had stopped walking, then turned around and started walking back, and they walked faster and faster... Nurse: (=ﾟДﾟ=)

What's going on?

Just now, you were rushing to the treatment room in a hurry, and now that it's right in front of you, why are you turning back?

The Nurse stepped forward and said, "Hey... where are you going? I just saw someone come out of the treatment room, so it should be finished. Now you can go in... Don't leave..." She blocked Black Snake's path: "Your head is still bleeding and needs to be treated quickly. What's wrong with your eyes...? Why do you keep winking at me? Are you uncomfortable...?"

Black Snake: ...He watched as his eyes nearly winked themselves blind, but the Nurse opposite him remained unmoved, making him anxious.

He whispered:

"Get out of the way... you come down and bandage me..."

Nurse: "I... I can't stitch... I can only clean your wound..."

Black Snake: "Then you clean it for me... hurry and move aside..."

Just as the Nurse was about to move, she saw Dr. Zhou walk out of the treatment room. She quickly said, "Dr. Zhou! Do you have any more patients in there?"

Dr. Zhou: "No..."

Nurse: "That's great: there's a patient here with a knife wound to the head, urgently needing your treatment."

Dr. Zhou: "Alright! Come over!"

Nurse: "Sir! Dr. Zhou has time... let's go, his suturing skills are the strongest in our hospital... didn't you really trust him? He just happens to have time now."

She gestured for Black Snake to go back... Black Snake: ∑(;°Д°)

Are you sick?

I already told you to come down and treat me, why do you keep calling Dr. Zhou? Most importantly, don't you know who is next to Dr. Zhou? What if that Master sees me?

My lady... you're not doing this on purpose, are you!

At this moment:

How could Black Snake dare to go back? He ducked his head, bypassed the Nurse, and tried to quickly leave, with his other subordinates immediately following.

But the next moment, he heard Zhao Shanhe's voice from behind:

"Stop!"

Clack... Black Snake and the others' bodies stiffened, frozen in place. His face showed panic, unease, fear, dread... all constantly surfacing. He wanted to escape, to leave this terrifying place, but he didn't dare.

Because... someone behind him had called out to him, even if he wasn't clear who exactly had called him, he knew that among those people behind him, even a mere doorman, he would have to address as 'Master'!

Whoosh! He turned around!

Bang!

He slid into a kneel! (シ_ _)シ

His other subordinates behind him all followed suit.

Soon, a whole group was kneeling!

Nurse: (꒪Д꒪)ノ

What's wrong with you all? Is the ground that slippery?

Zhao Shanhe frowned: "What are you doing...?"

Black Snake: "I was wrong... Shan Ge... I truly know I was wrong... I'll never dare again... Master Jiang, Master Zhu, Master Jiu... please, great Masters, overlook my petty mistakes... please don't bother with me..."

Zhao Shanhe: ...They hadn't clearly heard what Black Snake said just now. Their minds were focused on Si Jiu, and they just saw Black Snake bringing a lot of people, with a head injury, so they probably guessed the situation. Initially, Zhao Shanhe was a bit wary, worried if they were with the people who attacked Jiang Ge today, but looking at Black Snake and his crew, he knew he was overthinking it—they were just small-time hooligans.

Zhao Shanhe: "Your head..."

Black Snake: "My head is fine... no need for bandaging, just a quick treatment will do. If not, I'll go back and stick it in water to coolly bleed... Shan Ge... I truly didn't mean to fight Si Jiu Ge for the treatment room, you have to believe me! I swear... the kind where I'm struck by five thunderbolts..."

He raised his hand, making a swearing gesture.

Zhao Shanhe was speechless and didn't bother to say anything more to the other party. Plus, there were too many things happening today, and arguing with him would affect Jiang Ge's mood, so he simply waved his hand at him: "Scram, scram, scram!"

Upon seeing this,

Black Snake, as if granted a great pardon, led his subordinates away, scrambling and crawling.

What Black Snake tattoo?

What being connected to his life?

...All were thrown to the back of his mind!

Black Snake was just afraid that if he ran a little slower, he too would be like the tattoo on his head, cut off at the seven-inch mark, and gone in a snap!

Nurse: ...You just ran off like that... not going to get treated... Nurse: "Don't run, your head is bleeding, it must be dealt with quickly, otherwise, never mind your Black Snake tattoo, your body will also be affected, stop..."

Black Snake: ٩( ´Д` ;)۶:. *

Don't chase me anymore... I was wrong... I won't get treated... He wished he had another leg to run faster.

Still a tattoo?

Still bleeding!

What's a little blood? If that person truly disliked him, he probably wouldn't even have any blood left to bleed.

Besides:

He had just seen Si Jiu get injured with his own eyes.

Although he didn't know why someone of Si Jiu's caliber would get injured, he knew that an injury to someone of that level was a big deal. Plus, the Black Dragon Personnel's expressions were all extremely grim, clearly in a fit of rage. His appearance could very likely draw their wrath, which would absolutely be an undeserved calamity. He, Black Snake, had been in the underworld for so many years, and his current status was built on knowing when to be pragmatic, so naturally, he dared not hesitate!

In the blink of an eye, he vanished without a trace. The Nurse couldn't catch up, leaving many people stunned.

Only after running out of the hospital did Black Snake and the others finally gasp for breath:

"Oh my god, I was scared to death! That was Qin Chenjiang, and the God of War, and Zhuge!"

"I've only heard of these figures in legends, I never expected my first encounter to be like this?"

"I almost didn't make it out of there..."

"Why would they be at the hospital? Did a big battle happen outside? How come we don't know?"

They were puzzled as to why Qin Jiang and the others would be at the hospital, because they were helping someone resolve an issue today and hadn't heard the news of Qin Jiang's attack. If they had known, they wouldn't have dared to run here.

Black Snake: "Something big must have happened? Luckily, I reacted quickly and ran. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable..."

"Boss, where do we go next..."

Black Snake: "Where do you think? To another hospital to get my Black Snake tattoo bandaged..."

"Ah... yes..."

Several people helped Black Snake into the car?

Black Snake, covering his head, said with a slight dizziness: "The fortune teller was right, my Black Snake tattoo is connected to my life. This time, my Black Snake tattoo was damaged and I ran into Qin Chenjiang, almost getting crippled... It seems I need to protect my tattoo when fighting from now on..."

...In the hospital.

In front of the treatment room.

Qin Jiang, Zhu Zheng, and the others didn't bother with Black Snake and his group. People of their status couldn't be bothered to argue with those below them.

Unless they were truly blind.

At this moment, their attention was entirely on Si Jiu.

Qin Jiang looked at Si Jiu's bandage and asked the Doctor: "Doctor, is his arm alright..."

Doctor: "It's fine! Just some skin and flesh torn, it needs some time to recover. There might be a small scar, but it's not a big problem, as long as he's careful not to get it infected during this period."

As soon as these words came out.

Zhu Zheng, Wang Tao, Zhao Shanhe, and the others all breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that he's fine!

But the next moment, they heard Qin Jiang say: "Then the gunshot wound in his chest is also fine, right?"

Doctor: "No... Wait, where did you say? He was shot in the chest? How did I not know... (꒪ȏ꒪;)..."

The Doctor's expression went from calm to horrified.

Not just him! The faces of Zhu Zheng, Zhao Shanhe, and the others changed drastically. They had no idea Si Jiu had been shot in the chest. How could that be? Didn't they say his arm was just slightly injured? Why would he be shot in the chest?

All eyes turned to Si Jiu's chest, where indeed there was a broken hole that was hard to notice, clearly from a gunshot during that shooting.

Zhu Zheng: ∑( ;°Д°)

Zhao Shanhe: (☉_☉)

Doctor: »ू(͒ ˑ •᷄ ͡ ꇵ ͒ •᷅ ͒)ू?!

Zhu Zheng: "Si Jiu, your chest.."

Zhao Shanhe: "Brother Si Jiu... you... you..."

The Black Dragon high-ranking officials were all extremely anxious.

The Doctor was even more anxious than them, rushing up to question: "Why didn't you say you were shot in the chest? How do you feel now? Where do you feel uncomfortable..."

After all: As a Doctor, he knew how serious a chest gunshot wound was. And Si Jiu showed no pain from beginning to end, which could be even more serious. Perhaps his internal organs were injured and adrenaline was surging wildly, making him seem normal, but this state was extremely dangerous. Once the adrenaline couldn't keep up, the person would be completely incapacitated.

So the Doctor was truly frantic.

Si Jiu calmly waved his hand: "I'm fine..."

Doctor: "What do you mean you're fine? How can you be fine after being shot in the chest? It's not up to you to say whether you're fine or not! Come with me for an X-ray, I need to check the situation immediately..."

At the same time, he shouted to the Nurse: "Get a few more chief surgeons from general surgery and internal medicine, quickly... A joint consultation? This is serious!"

Before the Nurse could leave.

Si Jiu grabbed the Doctor's arm: "I'm really fine. Although I was shot, the bullet didn't actually enter my body."

Doctor: "Ah..."

Do you even hear what you're saying?

Hit? Not hit!

But Si Jiu's expression didn't seem like he was lying. He quickly realized that even if adrenaline could truly hold up, Si Jiu's body wasn't bleeding at all. But there was clearly a gunshot mark on his chest, so why was he fine? What did he mean the bullet didn't enter his body?

He was stunned!

There was a bullet mark on his chest!

The bullet didn't enter his body!

What the hell! Did you practice Golden Bell Shield and Iron Cloth Shirt, the kind that can even withstand bullets? That's ridiculous! But looking at Si Jiu's calm expression and burly physique, he couldn't help but doubt life: Could it actually be true?

The next moment:

Si Jiu took off his jacket in front of everyone. Inside was a seemingly very thick piece of clothing. He then lifted the clothing to reveal a slightly red mark on his chest, which looked like it would disappear soon.

Doctor, bewildered: "What the heck? What kind of clothes are these? They can block bullets? And there's no injury at all?"

The Black Dragon high-ranking officials reacted one after another:

Bulletproof vest!

That's right!

It was a bulletproof vest!

Han Yu's first shot only grazed Si Jiu's arm, causing him to bleed quite a bit. But the second shot, the one Han Yu thought had hit, landed squarely on Si Jiu's chest but was less effective than the first shot. The first shot at least injured Si Jiu, while the second shot achieved nothing.

Of course!

It wasn't that Si Jiu had Golden Bell Shield or Iron Cloth Shirt!

It was... a bulletproof vest!

Ever since Qin Jiang sensed danger, he had ordered a batch of bulletproof vests. Each of the Black Dragon high-ranking officials had one, but they didn't really wear them much. Bulletproof vests were quite heavy, and no one wanted to wear them out all day. Only Zhao Shanhe and Feng Lin would occasionally wear them when going out to handle matters, so they didn't react immediately just now.

But Si Jiu was different! The weight of a bulletproof vest was almost negligible to him; he basically wore it all the time as if it were a game. The second shot hit the bulletproof vest, and with Si Jiu's physical condition combined with Han Yu's old and broken gun, there naturally wouldn't be any harm.

So, those who heard the sound of metal colliding at the scene were not mistaken; it was indeed the sound of the bullet hitting the bulletproof vest.

What!

Bulletproof vest?

Doctor: (ᵒ̤̑ ₀ ̑ ᵒ̤̑) wow! *✰

His mind was filled with: [Are people who are out and about this cool now? Wearing bulletproof vests everywhere?]

This... this...

After a long pause, the doctor uttered two words: "Awesome!"

When Qin Jiang saw that Si Jiu was indeed fine, he didn't need to sigh in relief. He patted Si Jiu's good arm, but he didn't scold him for being impulsive, nor did he offer any other words of guidance. He knew that with Si Jiu's personality, even if he lectured him a thousand or ten thousand times, as soon as danger arose, he would still rush out to protect him first.

Everything was understood without words!

"Let's go... to see He You..."

Qin Jiang led everyone back towards the operating room.

Behind them,

Zhao Shanhe, Feng Lin, and the others also turned their thoughts to He You in the operating room. This Black Dragon Personnel, who was unknown yesterday, was now a name resounding in the ears of all Black Dragon Group's higher-ups today.

Throughout history, the greatest merit: protecting one's master!

He You's act of protecting Jiang Ge regardless of his own life or death instantly elevated his standing infinitely in the eyes of the Black Dragon Group's higher-ups.

Zhao Shanhe said remorsefully, "Brother He You is a good man. I didn't promote him wrong. It's just that I didn't discover it sooner... otherwise, the one who took the bullet should have been me..."

Feng Lin said, "Don't say that. His taking a bullet for Jiang Ge was voluntary, from the bottom of his heart! Anyone would do the same if they encountered this, but he did it! He deserves respect!"

Wang Tao: "He You! Has merit..."

Hearing the words from the higher-ups, all Black Dragon Personnel knew that He You's future would be limitless, truly limitless! A promotion of two or three ranks would be normal, and in the future, it might even be possible for him to stand shoulder to shoulder with big shots like Li Hao and Lu Nan. That would be the Black Dragon Group's true third echelon.

The third echelon!

It might sound ordinary, but one must understand that the current Black Dragon Group is no longer what it once was.

It is a vast Group power!

Under its jurisdiction:

Various headquarters: departments!

And these various headquarters departments, in turn, oversee many secondary departments!

These secondary departments, in turn, oversee many managed branch companies!

Those branch companies, in turn, oversee many departments, and departments, in turn, oversee many small agencies... and so on.

Furthermore, there is a strong tendency for subordinate companies to open branch companies or even acquire other subordinate companies!

For example:

Black Dragon Group — Publicity and Entertainment Department — (various secondary agencies: Finance Department, Publicity Department, Video Department... etc.) — Starlight Entertainment — Dahai Media (a branch company opened by Starlight Entertainment) — which then manages many departments, and signs many artists, etc... a six-tier organization!

Eight or nine levels of personnel!

In the future, it will continue to fission, with organizational structures of seven or eight layers being normal, and personnel potentially reaching over a dozen levels. Currently, the vast majority of Black Dragon Personnel are at the fifth or sixth level (a fifth-level position at headquarters can correspond to a high-level position in an external fifth-level organization).

And He You! As long as he wakes up, he will definitely be promoted to the fourth level, and in the future, he might even touch the threshold of the third level. Such individuals, no matter which one is brought out, would be a presence that could shake Songjiang with a stomp of their foot, a presence that could absolutely determine the fates of countless people with a single word, a presence that countless Black Dragon Personnel dream of climbing to.

But no one was jealous of He You!

He earned it with his life!

He deserves respect!

His promotion is something no one can object to; on the contrary, if He You were not promoted, it would dishearten the brothers below.

As the saying goes:

No reward for merit, brothers disperse!

...Outside the operating room.

A large Group of Black Dragon Personnel stood quietly waiting... Zhao Shanhe, Wang Tao, and others paced back and forth... Qin Jiang, Zhu Zheng, and Si Jiu sat there... The atmosphere!

Was extremely oppressive!

The air seemed to be congealed!

As time passed... this oppressive atmosphere grew heavier and heavier.

After all:

The longer the surgery, the more dangerous it is!

Zhao Shanhe paced back and forth: "Why hasn't he come out yet? It's been two hours already? What's the situation inside?"

"Should we find someone to go in and ask..."

Feng Lin: "I'll go find someone..."

He turned to go find someone. Although he wouldn't break into the operating room, with their status, they could find a hospital leader and have them send a Nurse in to check the situation.

Zhu Zheng: "Stop!"

Feng Lin: "Zheng Ge!"

Zhu Zheng: "Wait..."

Feng Lin sighed and said nothing more: "Sigh..."

Zhu Zheng looked towards the operating room and said, "The doctors inside are performing emergency rescue. We shouldn't disturb them..."

"And even less should we add even the slightest psychological burden to them, as this will affect the surgeon's state of mind."

He knew:

The hospital had already given this surgery great importance, having the top directors from each department come up with the most effective plan, and having the most skilled doctors perform the surgery. Everything had reached its optimal state.

Sending someone in now would only have the opposite effect, making the doctors inside, who were currently operating, feel constrained.

Threats!

In this era, it was not a good approach.

Zhao Shanhe: "Jiang Ge! You should go back and rest! We'll stand guard here..."

Before he finished speaking,

He saw Qin Jiang's gaze flash towards him, and Zhao Shanhe immediately knew better and shut up. Qin Jiang extinguished the cigarette in his hand, closed his eyes, and pondered. He was thinking about who had done this? Who was trying to interfere with Songjiang's affairs and had targeted him, even going so far as to cause such a huge commotion?

Also... what should he do next?

Zhu Zheng fanned himself with his folding fan, also deep in thought. Si Jiu, meanwhile, was twirling iron balls, making a creaking sound... Time passed:

Three hours... four hours... Just after five hours, the Black Dragon Group's higher-ups were getting a bit restless. Zhu Zheng was about to arrange for a fresh batch of Black Dragon Personnel to take over guard duty, planning to have Jiang Ge go back to rest, when.

Clack!

The light in the operating room went out!

Creak... The operating room door opened, and several doctors, wearing masks, walked out, looking tired and solemn.

Whoosh... A large number of Black Dragon Personnel immediately perked up and crowded around.

Qin Jiang suddenly opened his eyes and stood up. Zhu Zheng and Si Jiu followed behind him, walking towards the doctors. Zhao Shanhe, Feng Lin, and the others, though anxious, refrained from speaking first due to Qin Jiang's presence.

Qin Jiang: "Doctor! How is my brother?"

The doctor looked at Qin Jiang and sighed: "Alas... Mr. Qin, the patient was shot near the heart, and the bullet damaged his heart's blood supply vessels... Fortunately, you brought him in time, otherwise, he wouldn't have made it to the operating table. After the surgery, his life is barely saved. Currently, although the patient has autonomous breathing and heartbeat, he is in an unconscious state, retaining some instinctive nerve reflexes, unable to communicate with the outside world. The function of his hypothalamus and brainstem is basically preserved... We will do our best to help him regain consciousness, but the chances of success are not high... You should be mentally prepared..."

Zhao Shanhe: "No? What do you mean by that... Why don't I understand? Speak in plain language..."

Doctor: "...What I said is plain language, but seeing Zhao Shanhe's expression, he concluded: "The patient will most likely become a vegetative state..."

What?

A vegetable!

The faces of the Black Dragon Group's higher-ups all changed dramatically. Although this conclusion meant he wasn't dead, what was the difference between that and death?

Zhao Shanhe stepped forward excitedly, grabbing the doctor by the collar: "What did you say? Say it again!"

"How could my brother become a vegetable? It must be that you didn't perform the surgery well! Isn't it..."

The doctor: "What are you doing... Let go..."

He struggled frantically, almost lifted off his feet, showing the extent of Zhao Shanhe's anger. Among the Black Dragon Group's higher-ups, he and He You were relatively close. The other party was also his brother from the Security Department. Now, such a brother, who had just performed a great service and had an immeasurable future, was diagnosed as a vegetable by the doctor.

How could he accept it?

His eyes were bloodshot: "I don't care what method you use, you save my brother. I want him to wake up..."

Behind them.

All the Black Dragon Personnel also had bloodshot eyes, staring at the doctor.

The doctor: ...(=ﾟДﾟ=)... What kind of situation is this? I'm a doctor, not a god! I want to save him, but I don't have the ability... Other doctors who walked out of the operating room saw this and their expressions changed slightly.

The atmosphere!

Dropped to freezing point!

Some doctors had already secretly taken out their phones, ready to call security, and others planned to notify the hospital's higher-ups.

At this moment.

Qin Jiang's voice came: "Shanhe!"

Zhao Shanhe: "Jiang Ge..."

Qin Jiang: "Let go!"

"Hmph..." Zhao Shanhe released the doctor he was holding, but his gaze remained fixed on the other party, not moving.

"Cough... cough..."

The doctor couldn't stop coughing a couple of times.

Qin Jiang looked at the doctor and said: "My brother was overwhelmed and too agitated just now, please don't take offense."

The doctor waved his hand: "No... no problem... I understand... cough cough..." How could he not understand? He knew about the Black Dragon Group; these people in front of him were absolutely top-tier figures in Songjiang, whom even the dean dared not easily offend. Besides, their surgery was indeed not very smooth; there was nothing they could do! Their experience was still insufficient; they only encountered a few gunshot wound patients a year, and when he arrived, it was truly too severe. It was normal for these people to be agitated about the patient's current vegetative state.

Qin Jiang: "What is the probability of my brother waking up?"

The doctor: "Ten percent..."

"Damn it... So that's as good as nothing, isn't it..." Zhao Shanhe was even angrier. Ten percent, what the hell are you talking about!

Qin Jiang: "Are there any other options, such as contacting doctors from other regions or transferring to another hospital, that could increase the chances?"

"Sigh..." The doctor sighed: "Not really... The patient doesn't need a second surgery. The bullet has been removed from his body, and his vital signs are stable. The rest actually depends more on his will and luck. Whether a person in this state can wake up doesn't depend on external treatment. Currently, the entire medical community doesn't have any better methods. Those who have woken up each have their own unique characteristics, without any particular common patterns. The only commonality is that they were cared for relatively well and received some stimulation from external relatives. Currently! The chances of waking up within a week are relatively high; after a week, it becomes slightly..."

Qin Jiang's expression was solemn! How could he not understand the doctor's words? He You's future ability to wake up depended entirely on fate; medicine could no longer provide him with much help.

Whether he could wake up!

It depended more on the situation in the coming week!

It depended more on whether he had luck!

Blame the doctor?

No blame!

When he carried He You over, he could feel his life ebbing away. Being able to save him was already a blessing in disguise.

Qin Jiang: "Within a week: whatever is needed, you can tell me. Herbs, imported Western medicine, machines... etc. In short, as long as it can save my brother, money is not an issue, even if it can only increase his chances of waking up by a tiny bit. Zhu Zheng! Have someone deposit one million into He You's hospital account immediately, and keep in constant contact with the hospital; if it's not enough, top it up immediately."

He said this with a very firm tone.

The doctor was moved. This meant that the Black Dragon Group was willing to pay any price to save He You, and they didn't even demand that he definitely wake up, only asking to increase the chances by a tiny bit. He had no doubt that if something cost millions or tens of millions but could increase the chances of waking up, Qin Jiang would spend the money without hesitation. And he had seen too many life-and-death separations due to money, especially those who were involved in gangs?

One by one, they claimed brotherhood? But as soon as money was mentioned, they became foolish. While frantically shouting for their brothers to be rescued, they just wouldn't sign, and taking out money was even more difficult. Even if a big boss paid, they would be stingy. They knew if the chances of recovery were not high, they wouldn't save them, only shouting about avenging their brothers.

Now... seeing Qin Jiang's strong loyalty, he was moved!

It seems... even those in gangs can be truly loyal and righteous.

And if he heard correctly: the person inside was not Qin Jiang's dearest relative, but just a younger brother under him, who was only so highly valued because he took a bullet for Qin Jiang.

The doctor: "Mr. Qin, rest assured! We will do our best..."

Qin Jiang: "Then thank you, doctor..."

He waved his hand.

Whoosh... The Black Dragon Personnel behind him made way, and the doctors, dragging their exhausted bodies, left. After several hours of high-intensity surgery, they definitely needed some rest... Soon, several Nurses pushed a hospital bed out, on which lay He You, his face as pale as paper.

Qin Jiang stepped forward two paces to check.

Zhu Zheng and the others gathered around. Zhao Shanhe called out in a low voice: "He You... He You... Wake up... Jiang Ge came to see you, Jiang Ge is waiting for you to wake up... He You..."

Feng Lin: "He You! Jiang Ge is safe, wake up! Hurry and wake up to see..."

Wang Tao: "Wake up! Our brothers are still waiting for you to fight together..."

Sun Yuan: "Although I don't know you, as long as you wake up, I'll definitely have a good drink with you..."

...Unfortunately, He You showed no signs of waking up... At this moment.

Qin Jiang looked at He You's pale face with complex emotions. In fact, although he hadn't expected to be shot today, he had made some preparations. Even if He You hadn't blocked that bullet, he would have been fine. Yes! That's right! He was also wearing a bulletproof vest!

But did it matter?

He knew he would be fine? Did He You know? The reality was: He You still took a fatal blow to save him.

Moreover, what if that bullet hadn't aimed for his chest but his head? Even if Qin Jiang's keen perception was superior to ordinary people, could he guarantee 100% safety? Ultimately: He You saved him once!

This point:

The brothers of the Black Dragon Group acknowledged it!

He, Qin Jiang, naturally also acknowledged it!

...At this moment, various scenes from his previous life once again couldn't help but appear in Qin Jiang's mind:

In his previous life, his brothers died or were crippled to save him!

Reborn!

Repeating the same mistakes! Another brother was crippled to save him!

It really was... a cycle!

Bang!

A cold glint flickered in Qin Jiang's eyes:

This matter... is not over!!!

At this moment, Zhao Shanhe and the others were still calling out to He You.

Nurse: "Sirs, the patient just finished surgery and urgently needs a quiet environment to rest, otherwise it will affect his chances of waking up in the next week."

Zhao Shanhe and the others immediately fell silent.

The Nurse pushed the surgical cart quickly towards the ward, reminding them to be quiet and what not to do.

As soon as the Nurse left.

Whoosh... Black Dragon Personnel led a middle-aged couple, rushing in from outside.

The middle-aged couple looked anxious, their steps a bit unsteady.

The middle-aged man, wasn't he the same man who ate with He You in the cafeteria last time? It was He's Father!

The identity of the middle-aged woman beside him was self-evident, He's Mother!

Soon, Black Dragon Personnel brought them to the front of the ward: "Jiang Ge! They are He's Father and He's Mother!"

As soon as these words were spoken.

The Black Dragon Personnel present looked at the middle-aged couple with very complex expressions, a bit afraid to meet their gaze.

He's Father's heart sank.

He saw Qin Jiang, recognized his identity, and said nervously, "That... Chairman Qin... My... What happened to my son...?"

The two of them were originally at home dealing with farming matters when they suddenly received a call from Black Dragon Personnel: they said He You had an accident and was in the hospital, asking them to come to Songjiang, and that a car had already been dispatched to pick them up.

The couple dared not hesitate, rushing to Songjiang.

On the way, they repeatedly asked the Black Dragon Personnel what exactly had happened, but that Black Dragon Personnel remained tight-lipped.

They only said they would know once they arrived at the hospital.

The couple felt extremely uneasy, with a very bad feeling.

Now that they were at the hospital, they saw so many people gathered in front of the ward, all looking solemn, not daring to meet their eyes.

That bad feeling in their hearts grew even stronger.

Zhao Shanhe came out to explain: "Uncle, Auntie! Today we encountered an attacker on the way, He You was hit, he was shot..."

What?

Attack! Shot!

He's Mother felt a sudden darkness before her eyes and almost collapsed to the ground, quickly supported by He's Father: "Don't panic..."

Although He's Father said not to panic, his legs were visibly trembling slightly and his lips were quivering: "My son... now..."

Zhu Zheng: "He just finished surgery and hasn't woken up yet..."

He's Father and He's Mother breathed a slight sigh of relief.

They had just thought they were about to hear news that their son was gone, but the fact that he had undergone surgery proved his life was not in danger.

He's Mother: "It's good that he had surgery..."

He's Father: "It's good that he's not dead..."

Looking at the expressions of He's Father and He's Mother, the faces of all the Black Dragon Personnel were complicated, wanting to speak but hesitating.

They dared not reveal the news that He You might become a vegetable, fearing it would stimulate the elderly couple again.

He's Father: "Is he... inside!"

Qin Jiang: "Yes!"

He waved his hand, signaling the Black Dragon Personnel to make way.

He's Father and He's Mother quickly walked into the ward, and their eyes immediately turned red as they saw He You lying pale on the hospital bed.

He's Mother threw herself onto the bed, gently embracing He You's body, and said tearfully, "My son... Mom is here... Open your eyes and look at Mom... Son... My son..."

He's Father also had red eyes, gripping He You's hand.

This scene:

It made all the Black Dragon Personnel feel uneasy.

After a moment, Qin Jiang broke the desolate atmosphere: "Uncle, Auntie, He You just had surgery and needs quiet recovery!"

"Right!" He's Father nodded quickly: "Wife! Our son just had surgery, he needs quiet recovery, don't cry anymore..."

He's Mother wiped her tears and stood up, walking out of the ward with He's Father's support, both of them frequently looking back at He You.

Qin Jiang looked at the two: "Uncle, Auntie, this is not the place to talk.

Let's find a quiet place first... I will have someone guard him here and constantly monitor He You's condition."

He's Father: "Good!"

A few minutes later!

In the hospital's provided lounge, Qin Jiang sat on the sofa, Zhu Zheng and Si Jiu also sat down, while Wang Tao, Zhao Shanhe, and others stood on either side.

Across from them, He's Father and He's Mother sat nervously.

Qin Jiang looked at the two: "I'm sorry! Today's incident started because of me; someone attacked me!

He You took the bullet for me.

This is my responsibility, and I will take full responsibility for it."

He took the blame, not hiding anything from He's Father and He's Mother.

Then he continued: "Currently, He You's condition is not very good.

The doctor said there's a high probability he will become a vegetable!

However, I will definitely hire the best doctors and use the best medical methods to treat He You, and I will make sure he wakes up!

Uncle, Auntie! I'm sorry! It's my fault for not protecting your son, it's my fault for letting down a brother!"

Qin Jiang lowered his head, preparing for the storm.

No matter what He's Father or He's Mother said, he wouldn't care, and even if they rushed up and hit him a few times, he would endure it.

This was what he owed!

But the imagined storm did not appear.

He's Father and He's Mother, upon hearing Qin Jiang's words, only looked flustered.

Vegetable!

Their son would most likely become a vegetable!

He's Mother: "My son... How could this be... How could this be... What do we do... What are we going to do... He was fine yesterday..."

He's Father: "Don't cry... Our son will wake up... He definitely will... It'll be fine... We need to be strong... Our son isn't dead, as long as he's not dead, there's hope... He can wake up..."

He's Mother: "Yes... As long as he's alive, he'll wake up... Save our son... We'll spend whatever it takes to save him... He'll definitely be fine..."

He's Father: "Okay... I'll call back in a bit and have Old Third bring the family's savings passbook..."

He's Mother: "I still have some gold bracelets and things in my jewelry box; have Old Third bring those too... We'll sell everything to save our son..."

The two were actually starting to discuss how to raise money for their son's medical treatment.

Qin Jiang suddenly looked up at the elderly couple: "Uncle, Auntie! He You was injured for me, and I will be fully responsible for all medical expenses, ensuring he receives the best treatment.

After all, I am truly sorry..."

He hadn't finished speaking.

But He's Father said: "Chairman Qin! It's not your fault! You couldn't have known someone would attack you.

Besides, my son is responsible for security; this is his job.

How can you say you're sorry?"

He's Mother also said: "My son has told me many times that Chairman Qin is a good person, and our family has received Chairman Qin's kindness.

You have been gracious to us, not only helping his father get his wages back but also arranging work for him and entrusting him with important tasks.

It is He You's duty to take a bullet for you... You have not let him down, nor have you let us down..."

He's Father: "The fact that he survived a chest shot must be due to your efforts.

Truly, you saved my son's life!

Without you, my son would already be dead... Chairman Qin, you are our family's benefactor.

I, along with my son, want to express our gratitude to Chairman Qin and everyone..."

He's Father and He's Mother stood up, and instead of blaming Qin Jiang, they prepared to bow to Qin Jiang and the others...

Wang Tao: ∑(O_O;)

Zhao Shanhe: (=ﾟДﾟ=)

Other Black Dragon Personnel: ∑(;°Д°)

No one expected He's Father and He's Mother to act this way; there were no curses, no blame, only gratitude for saving their son.

Such simple parents after all these years!

Such a guilt-inducing action!

...Even:

To bow to them?

How could this be acceptable?

From Qin Jiang, Zhu Zheng, Si Jiu, down to Wang Tao, Zhao Shanhe, and Feng Lin, which of the Black Dragon Personnel could bear a bow from He's Father and He's Mother now!

Whoosh!

Zhu Zheng sprang forward, supporting both of them with his hands: "Uncle, Auntie, you mustn't! You truly mustn't!!!"

Si Jiu: "He You was injured for Jiang Ge. How could you two elders have done anything wrong to us? It's we who have wronged Brother He You, and you two elders. If I hadn't detected the danger in the first place, Brother He You wouldn't have..."

He's Father: "You must not say that... He You is working for you. His job is security! He's just fulfilling his professional duties, and you haven't wronged him. Besides, for my son, a student who hasn't even graduated, to be so highly valued and earn such a high salary is a kindness. It's the He family's rule to repay kindness, so his actions are only natural. Not doing so would be wrong..."

For a moment.

He's Father and He's Mother began apologizing to the Black Dragon Personnel.

Qin Jiang: "Uncle, Auntie, now is not the time to discuss right or wrong. The top priority is to get He You medical treatment."

Before He's Father and He's Mother could speak, Qin Jiang continued: "He You's injury is a work-related injury, incurred during work! His medical expenses must be covered by the Black Dragon Group. This is the rule! Uncle, you've worked before, you should know this rule... Now, you two elders, stop arguing about these things. Everything must prioritize He You's health."

He's Father no longer argued, nodding: "Alright then... We'll listen to Chairman Qin... Thank you, Chairman Qin, for taking care of my little He You..."

He's Mother: "Chairman Qin, you are a good person..."

He's Father asked: "Have the attackers been caught?"

Qin Jiang: "The people have been caught! They are currently being interrogated. Uncle, rest assured, no matter who is involved in this matter, no matter who is behind it, I will definitely give He You an explanation."

He's Father: "It's good that they've been caught..."

He's Mother: "Thank you, Chairman Qin, for upholding justice for my son."

He's Father and He's Mother's praise made Qin Jiang feel a pang of sadness: "Shanhe! Take Uncle and Auntie to rest."

"Yes!"

Zhao Shanhe said: "Uncle, Auntie, we've booked a room next to the hospital. You two have traveled a long way, please go rest for a bit. As for He You, you don't need to worry; we will keep a constant watch, and we'll notify you two immediately if there's any news."

But how could He's Father and He's Mother rest?

He's Father: "We'd better wait outside the ward. That way, we can be the first to know if anything happens."

He's Mother: "You've been busy for too long, go back and rest first. The two of us can watch here."

Zhao Shanhe: ...Qin Jiang no longer insisted. Which parents could rest peacefully at such a time? He waved his hand: "Take the two elders to the ward!"

"Yes!"

Zhao Shanhe took He's Father and He's Mother to the ward... The ward was there.

He's Mother leaned against the glass, watching He You inside, his face pale and eyes tightly shut. Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably: "My son... why is your life so hard? It's all Mom's fault... It's all Mom's fault for being incompetent... If Mom were capable and could earn money, you wouldn't have had to work before graduating, and if you hadn't worked, this wouldn't have happened today... It's Mom's mistake..."

He's Father was equally remorseful, clenching his fists: "Dad is incompetent! Dad! So incompetent! It's all Dad's fault for not protecting you."

Both of them were blaming themselves!

They didn't blame the Black Dragon Group, and they didn't even hold a particular hatred for the culprit (after all, he had been arrested and brought to justice). They only blamed themselves for their incompetence. In their minds, if they hadn't been so incompetent, making their family live in hardship, He You wouldn't have started working before graduating, wouldn't have wanted to ease the family's burden, and without working, he wouldn't have faced an attack and wouldn't have gotten into trouble.

Everything... was due to their incompetence!

As for He You taking a bullet for Qin Jiang, they didn't blame him. If you take someone's money, you should do the job, and isn't security about ensuring safety? You can't blame the employer just because something happened. Besides, their son voluntarily took the bullet, he wasn't forced to.

The two elders fell into deep self-reproach.

After a long time.

He's Father finally spoke: "Wife! Don't blame yourself anymore. Your health isn't good to begin with. Even if you blame yourself to death now, it won't change the outcome. Besides, our son isn't dead yet! If he's not here, the two of us can't collapse, otherwise, the family will fall apart."

"There are still people waiting to be taken care of... When the child wakes up, he'll need us to take care of him... We can't let our health fail..."

He's Mother: "Cough, cough... Yes... You're right... I can't collapse... The child is still waiting for me to take care of him... His grandpa at home also needs care... Be strong..."

He's Father and He's Mother wiped their eyes, mumbling the words "be strong," but the thick bloodshot eyes of both revealed their true inner feelings.

Since ancient times... who can bear to see their white hair bury black hair!

It's fortunate that He You is alive now!

Otherwise... it's unimaginable... In the meeting room.

Zhao Shanhe returned, a little sad: "Jiang Ge! Uncle and Auntie are secretly wiping away tears in the ward... It makes my heart ache to see it..."

As soon as these words came out, Wang Tao, Feng Lin, and the others all felt a sour taste in their mouths. If He's Father and He's Mother had made a big fuss just now, they might have felt a little better, but instead... Bang!

Feng Lin slammed the table: "Jiang Ge! This matter cannot be over! It's probably that Wang Wei who did it. He just got out and immediately hit us with this. This is clearly a declaration of war..."

Zhao Shanhe: "That's right! Jiang Ge! We and Tiger Might are already like fire and water. Instead of dragging this out, why don't we just eliminate him, once and for all, to prevent him from causing more trouble? I'll lead people myself..."

Sun Yuan: "He You's revenge must be exacted..."

...Everyone once again clamored to go and deal with Tiger Might to vent their anger... At this moment:

Everyone was looking at Qin Jiang, waiting for his command.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Qin Jiang's fingers tapped on the table, the chill in his eyes growing more intense, making all the Black Dragon Personnel's hearts tremble.

It was like:

A prelude to a volcanic eruption!

At this moment:

Qin Jiang's originally calm state of mind was impacted by the condition of He You's parents, and furious emotions suppressed his rationality!

A sudden impulse surged within him: "Who cares who did it, first eliminate Tiger Might to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys and deter the petty ones." Once this impulse appeared, under the impact of various tragic scenes of his brothers from two lifetimes, it became completely uncontrollable.

Suddenly.

Qin Jiang stopped tapping and commanded:

"Zhao Shanhe, Feng Lin!"

Zhao Shanhe: "Here!"

Feng Lin: "Here!"

Qin Jiang: "Pass on my order..."

...Please support! Please give free gifts!

One side.

Zhu Zheng's expression changed slightly.

He was relatively calm because, firstly, he didn't have much of an impression of He You. While He You's injury angered him, it wasn't enough to make him lose his composure (Qin Jiang lost his composure due to the impact of his past life memories, while others lost theirs because they were angry that someone dared to attack Jiang Ge). Secondly, as the strategist for Black Dragon Group, he had to maintain his calm.

Therefore, he knew that under these circumstances, he absolutely could not act impulsively.

Currently, this incident had caused a sensation and shaken Songjiang. How many forces were watching them? Any large-scale action now could be used against them, and he strongly suspected that a third-party force was involved. He absolutely could not let them profit from the situation.

Thinking of this,

He was about to stop Qin Jiang, preparing to say something in a low voice.

Before he could speak,

Just as Qin Jiang was about to give the order for two major departments to mobilize people to destroy Tiger Might Group, the memories etched into his soul from his previous life continuously flooded his mind:

"A Tao... mobilize the men! Get them! Let them know who's king in Songjiang... who's the wildest in Bei Province!"

"Anyone who dares to offend me, Qin Jiang, must be eliminated! Shanhe! Gather the men for me, get them!"

"Feng Lin! You mobilize the men and wipe them out for me..."

...Order after order was given.

Countless brothers went to fight under his command. Although his status continuously rose, many brothers also fell along the way during the battles. At that time, the young and reckless Qin Jiang felt sad but not deeply affected. However, as he grew older and the brothers around him gradually decreased, his inner self changed, especially when he thought of the parents and relatives of those brothers! Their sons had all fallen in his quest for power and dominance.

Looking at those deeply sorrowful faces... he regretted it for the rest of his life!

In this life:

Would he continue to repeat the same mistakes?

He knew: giving an order would feel good, it would boost his reputation and vent his anger.

But what about the brothers who would fall because of it?

Of course!

Qin Jiang was not a soft-hearted woman!

If he truly needed to act, he would do so without hesitation. Having fought and killed for two lifetimes, Qin Jiang would not be indecisive.

Even if it meant some loss, it didn't matter!

But there was clearly a better option for this matter!

Currently, Tiger Might was just a scapegoat. The true culprit behind this attack was still unknown. Even if it was Tiger Might, Black Dragon could cooperate with the Police for another joint extermination.

Rushing in!

It was completely unnecessary!!!

Qin Jiang's tone shifted: "Everyone, stand by and await my orders. We will cooperate with the Police to eliminate any lawless elements."

Zhao Shanhe: "Yes!"

Feng Lin: "Yes!"

Zhu Zheng, who was about to speak, paused slightly. Seeing Jiang Ge's gaze return to calm, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief: "Jiang Ge is Jiang Ge. Even in such anger, he remains calm!"

Qin Jiang took out his phone and called Bai Meng!

Several hours had passed.

He believed Bai Meng must have investigated thoroughly by now. No matter who was behind this attack, he would have his revenge.

At worst, he would team up with the Police to crush the underworld of the Northern Lands!

Who could stop him?

He would spare no cost!

Today!

Bai Meng must give him an explanation!

At this moment:

All Black Dragon Personnel were waiting for the final result of Jiang Ge's phone call, poised and ready to strike:

...Meanwhile, in another location.

In the temporary interrogation room.

Bai Meng personally presided, accompanied by Wang Hu and an interrogation expert who came to assist.

Behind them, countless high-ranking Police officials waited to be questioned.

Everything was to quickly break the silence of Han Yu, who had just caused a major earthquake in Songjiang!

Across from them.

Han Yu sat there, his right arm completely bandaged, and other parts of his body also wrapped in bandages. However, his overall mental state was good. Although Si Jiu had thrown him from the second floor, he landed squarely on a car, which greatly cushioned the impact. He only broke a few ribs, which were not fatal injuries. Normally, someone with such injuries would wait for recovery before being questioned, but the gravity of his crime was too great.

At this moment,

Bai Meng and the other two were pondering how to interrogate him. Someone who was clearly a professional killer would definitely be difficult to interrogate.

They had to seize every opportunity to catch him in a lie, prepare for a prolonged battle, and give it their absolute best.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The three exchanged glances, signaling their readiness.

Then, Bai Meng looked at Han Yu across from him, his expression serious, and began the interrogation: "Han Yu! Who is your mastermind? Who instructed you to publicly attack Qin Jiang? Confess and be lenient, resist and be dealt with severely!"

Han Yu: "I'll tell... I'll confess everything..."

Wang Hu: "We have already initially gathered evidence. If you don't speak... wait, you'll speak, you'll speak? You'll speak!"

Bai Meng and the other two were all stunned.

He'd speak?

He'd just say it like that?

Shouldn't he resist stubbornly without saying a word? This was completely different from what they had expected! But the three did not relax, suspecting Han Yu was playing tricks; such things had happened before.

Bai Meng: "Speak!"

Han Yu: "Can I have a cigarette?"

Bai Meng gave Wang Hu a look. Wang Hu pulled a cigarette from his pocket, put it in Han Yu's mouth, and lit it: "Baili! Strong stuff!"

Han Yu took a deep drag:

Phew... "Comfortable!"

He looked at Bai Meng and the other two and said: "I know what you want to ask. Who instructed me to kill Qin Jiang? No one instructed me!"

Bai Meng: "If no one instructed you, why did you want to kill Qin Jiang? Where did you get your gun? Do you really think I can't tell you're a professional killer? Don't try to deceive us."

Han Yu: "I know you're suspicious! But no one really instructed me. As for why I killed Qin Jiang... I have a grudge against him!"

"I don't know if you still remember the two wanted criminals arrested two years ago: ** and **! These two were my brothers! Back then, they were discovered just because they looked at Qin Jiang. My two poor brothers, who had managed to hide for so many years, just fell into Qin Jiang's hands like that. They were executed that year! So, you could say I have a deep-seated blood feud with Qin Jiang."

What?

Wang Hu was stunned: "You mean those two wanted criminals arrested two years ago were your brothers? How come we didn't know he had brothers?"

Two years ago, he was the one who led the team in that arrest. Originally, they were going to arrest Qin Jiang, but by a strange twist of fate, they caught two wanted criminals. And those two wanted criminals, as Han Yu said, were discovered by Qin Jiang.

Bai Meng also recalled the incident with the wanted criminals two years ago and frowned slightly: "We investigated the matter two years ago: there were no traces of a third party in the cases those two committed. You couldn't have been their accomplice back then?" But he didn't see Han Yu lying, so he said: "You and those two wanted criminals met while on the run."

Han Yu looked at Bai Meng and nodded in approval: "You're very clever! The three of us met when we were fleeing to the **No Man's Land . In the no-man's land, the three of us went through too many life-and-death crises together..." He seemed to fall into a reverie, reminiscing about the countless moments the three of them shared in the desert over the years:

Exploring together!

Engaging in internal conflicts together!

Watching exciting shows together!

Surviving deadly sandstorms together!

At this moment, Han Yu's face was filled with reminiscence:

"Back then, we swore that after we got out, we would live good lives! We came to Songjiang to start a new life here! But because of Qin Jiang, because of one thing, the two of them died. How could I not avenge such a deep blood feud!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the interrogation room fell silent.

No one had ever imagined that Han Yu's elaborate plan to kill Qin Jiang was for this reason? Because of those two wanted criminals from the past? They also hadn't expected that those two wanted criminals had a life-and-death confidant on the outside.

When they investigated the past of those two wanted criminals, Han Yu was not found; he was not on the wanted list.

Bai Meng: "You can get a gun! And you can kill your way out of the no-man's-land. Who exactly are you? Speak…"

Whoosh… Han Yu exhaled another smoke ring: "Who am I? My name is Han Yu, also known as the Night Killer!"

Night Killer!

Bai Meng and Wang Hu both looked slightly stunned, having never heard of him.

But the interrogation expert next to them looked serious: "Are you the Night Killer who committed multiple cases in the ** region? No! That Night Killer has already been caught! Are there two Night Killers?"

He had exchanged experiences in multiple provinces and districts back then and knew about the Night Killer case. Later, it was solved. It was said that a local boss liked to act like a big shot during the day and commit assassinations at night. At that time, that person could clearly explain all the details of the crimes and had a strong motive, so the case was closed, and he was executed!

Now, how could another Night Killer suddenly appear?

"Haha…"

Han Yu: "Where did two Night Killers come from? The one you caught back then was my boss. He took all the blame for me! He told me to leave that city and live a good life, to be a good person… to be a good person… but unfortunately… I couldn't do it, I failed his expectations…"

The interrogation expert's face was grim. If what the other party said was true, then there was a flaw in the case back then. The real culprit had been at large for so many years and even committed such a heinous crime today. He couldn't accept it: "How can you say you are the Night Killer? Do you know anything about the case from back then? Speak…"

Bai Meng interrupted him: "Captain Yu! The review of that case is a matter for later. We'll combine the cases and interrogate them together then. Right now, we are interrogating today's shooting case!"

He looked at Han Yu and asked: "Han Yu! Even if you are the Night Killer from back then, that explains your gun and your audacity! But two years have passed since the events of back then. Why did you make no moves for two years, and instead chose to act today? What is the real reason for your action? What have you been doing during these two years of delay?"

Right! This is the key!

Even if Han Yu really attacked Qin Jiang for revenge! Why didn't he seek revenge back then? Why seek revenge today? He delayed for a full two years! If he truly felt that his brother's vendetta had to be avenged, why would he delay for two years? Since he delayed for two years, why did he choose to seek revenge now? It's illogical!

Unless… someone instructed him from behind!

Only this possibility could explain the problem!

And it conforms to normal logic!

Han Yu smiled: "Haha…"

He laughed up to the sky: "Hahahaha…"

Tears even streamed down his face. His smile was full of bitterness, despair, helplessness, and regret:

"Why…"

"Because I am guilty! In my early life, I committed unforgivable bloody crimes! I suffered divine retribution!"

"But why? Why did divine retribution have to punish my daughter… my daughter… she got sick… leukemia… an incurable disease…"

"At that time, I was preparing for revenge, but when I heard the news, I was stunned. What revenge! What brotherhood! All of it was thrown to the back of my mind. All I could think about was how to save my daughter…"

"Unfortunately… she still left us…"

Han Yu's tone was filled with sorrow.

He truly loved his daughter! She was one of the few lights in his life. He had planned so much for her future, but it was all for naught!

Daughter!

Incurable disease!

Two years!

Passed away!

Bai Meng, Wang Hu, and the other person were stunned. They never expected such a twist. If what the other party said was true, everything was logical and reasonable. All their previous assumptions were shattered.

Bai Meng: "You have a daughter? Why isn't it shown in the records? Which hospital did she receive treatment at?"

Han Yu did not hide anything and honestly explained: "Yes! I have a daughter! Her name is Han Tongtong, but her name on the household registration is: Zhou Tong Tong! She received treatment at ** Hospital."

Bai Meng gave Wang Hu a look.

Wang Hu understood and turned to leave the interrogation room. Outside, Police personnel were already gathering Han Yu's information. Due to the rushed nature of this investigation, and because Tong Tong's household registration was with her mother at the time, it wasn't immediately uncovered. Before the interrogation, they only knew Han Yu's personal information, date of birth, place of origin, and family background.

Under Wang Hu's phone call, someone went to the hospital to verify the situation, and soon received confirmation that everything was true.

The hospital even retrieved many videos, which included footage of Han Yu taking Han Tongtong for treatment.

This meant he wasn't lying… Wang Hu returned to the interrogation room, nodded to Bai Meng, and whispered: "The hospital investigation confirmed this situation. Han Yu repeatedly took a girl named Zhou Tong Tong for treatment over two years. That girl's condition worsened and she passed away not long ago. Additionally, the technical personnel just investigated: his account is very quiet, with no financial transactions."

Bai Meng: … Interrogation expert: … The current situation completely disrupted the interrogation rhythm.

To be precise, it disrupted all the initial assumptions. Not just them! Even the Police personnel outside hadn't expected such a conclusion. Although it hadn't been completely confirmed yet, years of experience in handling cases told everyone that these things were true.

No mastermind!

No third-party forces!

And no conspiracy!

Everything… was just a hatred stemming from two years ago, a revenge delayed by two years because his daughter got sick!

It's… really outrageous!

But is it really that outrageous?

Sometimes cases are like this: they've seen even more outrageous criminal motives, let alone Han Yu only delaying for two years.

To be honest, if it weren't for Qin Jiang's special status, and if it weren't for this particular time, this case would seem very normal. The only slight difference is: Han Yu confessed particularly quickly!

Bai Meng recovered from his daze and continued to ask: "Where did you get your gun…"

Han Yu: "My big brother gave it to me before. I brought it back and hid it in an abandoned factory outside the city, and only retrieved it yesterday…"

Bai Meng: "How did you know Qin Jiang would be giving a speech today…"

Han Yu: "I heard it from a few students when I was scouting…"

Bai Meng: "Tell us about the crimes you committed in the past…"

… The questioning about the cases came to an end.

Slap!

Wang Hu closed his notebook and nodded to Bai Meng, indicating that it was almost done.

Just as Bai Meng was about to conclude, Han Yu leaned forward, looked up at Bai Meng, his smile still present: "Leader! I like you, so I'll give you a credit: next, I'm going to confess to a real: murder case! Murder! Yesterday!"
