Mario is dead, many people are dead, and if anyone knows the secret of why Mario so brazenly attacked Satan, it would be Cesare.
So Gao Yang was really glad to see Cesare.
More so because they were locked in the sa interrogation room, but Cesare didn’t seem to have suffered any torture; apart from being extrely weary, he was otherwise intact.
"Yes, Mario is dead."
Justin said very plainly and shrugged his shoulders, then spoke to Cesare: "I didn’t expect you to pass information. Even though the information was fake, I think it wasn’t intentional on your part. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be here, right?"
Cesare sighed deeply and said: "Yes, Mario carried out a rather unsophisticated sche, but he successfully deceived everyone. Mario always suspected soone around him was feeding you information secretly, but he never thought it would be . Unfortunately, I really fell into his trap. In fact, if I hadn’t truly believed Mario was dead, I might not have passed information to you. So, the entire affair can only be described as fate playing tricks on people."
Gao Yang took a step forward and whispered: "I’m happy to see you, but we can talk later."
Gao Yang stepped forward to unlock Cesare’s handcuffs. Mario took off his jacket, and when Gao Yang helped Cesare stand up, he wrapped the jacket around Cesare’s waist.
After Cesare stood up straight with Gao Yang’s support, he exhaled deeply, looked at Gao Yang, and said: "Hello, Ram, believe , I’m even happier to see you guys."
Gao Yang supported Cesare as they walked a few steps and said: "How are you? Do you need to call a doctor to check on you?"
Cesare shook his head and said: "I don’t need a doctor’s diagnosis; the best dicine for is food. Mario didn’t hit ; he simply didn’t give anything to eat."
After speaking, Cesare looked at Gao Yang and said: "I’m currently very glad to have kept you alive because if you were dead, there’d be no one here to rescue now."
Gao Yang raised an eyebrow and said: "What do you an? Should I thank you for keeping alive?"
Cesare weakly replied: "That’s right, Mario’s intention was to torture you, disable you, and finally kill you. I persuaded him not to be too aggressive, and that’s why you managed to hold on until rescue, without dying or becoming disabled. You should thank for my suggestions to Mario."
Gao Yang imdiately said: "Thank you."
Gao Yang truly needed to thank Cesare because if his hands were crippled, it would be a death sentence for him.
Justin and Gao Yang helped support Cesare together, and then he whispered: "I don’t understand why you would help ."
Cesare whispered: "Because of Mister Cicero, your father."
Justin chuckled bitterly and said: "As expected, it’s not a surprising answer. Alright, the rest can be discussed slowly. Do you need to call ho? Since you’re fine, maybe..."
Cesare’s body went slack, and then he whispered: "No need."
Justin and Gao Yang exchanged a glance over Cesare’s lowered head, and then Gao Yang gently shook his head and mouthed: "Looks like he’s dead."
Cesare slowly and quietly said: "To Mario, nothing about was a secret. He had my family brought in and killed in front of ."
"I’m sorry."
"My condolences."
Gao Yang and Justin each said quietly, then Cesare softly said: "I’m not trying to excuse Mario, but as soone in a high position, if a subordinate betrays you and you don’t use the harshest ans to punish and intimidate others, you won’t survive. So this outco is quite normal."
Cesare seed open-minded about it, that was Gao Yang’s impression, but what Cesare said was definitely right. A boss in the Underworld, if they show leniency towards a betrayal from a subordinate, they’re likely to lose their position.
Gao Yang and Justin helped Cesare to the dining room and brought him so ready food.
Cesare had been hungry for too long; at first, he ate slowly, but after getting a bit of food and so strength, he started feeling hungrier and had the energy to eat voraciously.
Soone who’s been starving for days wouldn’t be able to speak while eating, and Cesare ate faster and faster.
Finally, Gao Yang yanked the plate away from in front of Cesare and placed a cup of coffee in front of him, then loudly said: "You’ve been starving too long, you can’t eat too much, and the food is cold; rest for a bit before continuing to eat. For now, have a cup of coffee first."
Cesare held the coffee cup with both hands, buried his head in thought for a long ti, and finally said softly: "I’m feeling better. Do you have any other questions? Let’s continue."
Gao Yang imdiately said: "I want to know why Mario targeted ."
Cesare chuckled bitterly, raised his head, and looked at Gao Yang: "In hindsight, it was a mistake, a colossal mistake, but when Mario decided to deal with you, it wasn’t a mistake. This matter evolved from one mistake leading to another, you could say it was destiny’s arrangent."
Cesare took a sip of his coffee and slowly said: "It all begins with Alfonso."
Gao Yang spread his hands and said: "Who’s Alfonso then?"
Justin quietly said: "My subordinate, he’s dead."
Cesare wiggled a finger and said: "No, he’s not dead."
Justin’s eyes widened in shock, and Cesare slowly said: "Hard to believe, isn’t it? Your most trusted person betrayed you. It wasn’t us who found Alfonso; Alfonso went to Mario of his own accord. He told Mario your whereabouts and everything you did. From that point on, Satan ca into our view."
Justin struggled to say: "That’s impossible!"
Cesare shrugged: "Why would I lie to you? Your Alfonso absconded with a large sum of money to so undisclosed location and is living it up. By the way, that money is yours, not given by Mario—Alfonso took all the money from your accounts and left alive as a reward for betraying you. Mario didn’t care for that paltry sum of yours."
Justin’s mouth kept moving, then he stood up and started pacing in circles.
Cesare continued in a calm tone: "Through Alfonso, we found out that within the circles you associate with, no one could help you except Satan, because you gave Satan 100 million dollars. This transaction was facilitated by Alfonso. Alfonso didn’t know why you gave money to Satan, and neither did we. The most reasonable explanation could only be you were attempting to use the Satan rcenary Corps as your military foundation. We all know you lack a formidable military base, and with Satan’s reputation, 100 million dollars is enough for you to buy the rcenary group to work solely for you. So, when Mr. Ram proactively sent soone to propose cooperation with Mario, what would he think and do?"
