This incident beca a major uproar, going straight to the top of the internet's hot search.
This imdiately left Chen Guoxiang feeling as if he were sitting on pins and needles, fearing that if Gao Xinfu were caught, he would be implicated. Then he'd beco an accomplice, and that would be the death of him.
At the sa ti, he was eagerly hoping for Chen Feng to beco the next victim.
This complex psychological state left him tossing and turning for the past two days, unable to sleep through the night. He was muddled and lethargic, lacking energy even when opening his shop during the day, causing business to falter significantly.
This morning, he was sitting sowhat listlessly in the shop, continuing to think about his debts and the matters involving Gao Xinfu and Chen Feng. One mont he dozed off, desperate to sleep, the next he was suddenly wide awake, head in a fog. Suddenly, the light in front of him dimd, and three people filed into his shop.
The last person, with practiced ease, turned and pulled down the shutter from top to bottom, quickly closing the shop.
Chen Guoxiang's mind snapped to alertness, and he looked at the man in the lead, his face ashen, asking with a trembling voice, "Bro... Brother Hong, isn't it not ti yet?"
This Brother Hong was the contact responsible for his loan, one of Ma Laoliu's trusted subordinates. He was in his forties, physically strong, with dark skin, a buzz cut, and a ferocious face that made it clear he was not a good person.
Brother Hong didn't answer him but directly grabbed his collar, pulling him out from behind the counter and slamming him to the floor, launching into a barrage of punches and kicks without a word.
At first, Chen Guoxiang could still scream loudly, but in the end, he could only whimper.
After a while, Brother Hong finally stopped the beating, stepping back a few steps to let two subordinates lift the battered Chen Guoxiang from the ground.
Brother Hong, face full of nace, glared at the bruised and swollen Chen Guoxiang, speaking slowly, "Where is Gao Xinfu? I'll ask you only once. If you don't speak or lie, I'll drag you to the river and drown you today."
If it hadn't been for the brutal beating just now, Chen Guoxiang might not have spoken. But after enduring this intensely painful assault, coupled with Brother Hong's deadly words, Chen Guoxiang couldn't care about much else, survival being crucial, and unsurprisingly chose to comply.
"I'll talk, I'll talk."
Chen Guoxiang hesitated only for two seconds before eagerly telling Brother Hong everything he knew, finally offering his sincere suggestion: "You can go to the harbor on Central Boundary Island and wait for him. He's sure to try to flee by boat, very likely tonight."
"You son of a bitch!" Brother Hong slapped him hard, causing his head to buzz and blood to flow from his mouth again.
"You knew from the start, that bastard Gao Xinfu went to Brother Liu for revenge, maybe you even plotted with him. Damn it, with Brother Liu dead, you don't deserve to live either."
Previously, Brother Hong's group had only found out Gao Xinfu and Chen Guoxiang knew each other since childhood, went south to work together, and even partnered in business, but didn't know Chen Guoxiang was involved in Ma Laoliu's murder.
The scene just now was just an attempt at deception, but unexpectedly it worked. It can only be said that Chen Guoxiang has poor ntal resilience, and this calamity was destined for him.
After speaking with a murderous look, Brother Hong kicked Chen Guoxiang directly in the groin, causing him to grimace in pain and faint.
"Brother Hong, what now?" a subordinate asked.
"First, get rid of the shop's surveillance, take the hard drive, and find a bag to pack him up. We'll take him along and send him to the sea in Central Boundary to accompany Brother Liu in death."
The two subordinates only hesitated slightly before agreeing, each going their separate ways to take care of business.
