Xiaofan's move was indeed quite risky. But there was no choice, he had to determine what the opponent really wanted to do through this approach.
So when Li San t with the opponent alone, he was extra cautious. If the opponent wanted to take his life, he would make sure they wouldn't succeed.
Even if, in the end, the two children were killed because of his non-cooperation, Li San wouldn't be foolish enough to truly collaborate with them.
Because if he really died, then those two children would have even less chance of surviving.
So, Li San connected the call with them.
"Hello."
"Good, it seems you haven't told Ye Xiaofan about things here."
"Where are the people? What do you want to do?"
"Quite straightforward... I just need you to agree to one condition. Once you complete it, we'll release the people."
"What condition? I want your recording. I want you to provide proof for Ye Xiaofan's alibi last night."
"What do you an? Just say what I want you to say."
"Where are the two kids?"
"Don't worry, they're fine."
"I need to see them first, otherwise, I won't agree..."
"You have no choice."
"I do. I'm not foolish enough to trust you guys easily. I've dealt with you too much—do you think I'd risk everything for a couple of insignificant kids?"
"So, it seems you don't care about these two kids."
"You might as well try killing one first..."
"Okay, soone... kill the girl..."
"Hey, wait wait wait... Alright, I give up. I'll do as you say, but I must see them first."
"Alright, just one look..."
Just one look. Li San was, of course, pretending before. He wanted to determine the exact location of the two children. The opponent's intelligence wasn't directly as high as imagined; clearly, the person on the phone wasn't the mastermind behind the entire event.
So, he ca, he saw the two children, and as instructed by Xiaofan, he stalled them and repeated what they told him to say.
But at that ti, he didn't expect Shen Zuimo and another person to be eavesdropping and hear everything he said. This was probably what ultimately resulted in Xiaofan getting stabbed.
People—the opponent obviously didn't intend to let him take them away imdiately; it seed he still had more value, such as biting back at Xiaofan at a critical mont.
The opponent's plan was very crafty, and as long as he left, they would imdiately relocate. So after completing their conditions, Li San was sent back, and at this point, Li San naturally waited in hiding for the opponent to relocate the people.
Sure enough, not long after, they ca out. Confirming the two children were both there, Li San imdiately followed them. At that ti, Lingze had also brought Shen Zuimo to Xiaofan's house. They didn't pay much attention to Li San. After all, with the two kids in hand, Li San wouldn't dare act rashly.
So, Li San ca to rescue the people. But he didn't expect the opponent to notice him and grabbed one of the kids as a hostage before making a move.
Another person attacked Li San.
This is why Li San was covered in injuries when he returned to the hospital. He didn't dare fight back because if he moved, the child would be killed. After raising them with difficulty, how could Li San bear to let these two orphans beco sacrifices in this incident?
But if he didn't fight back, all three of them would die.
At this mont, the little boy tied to the side suddenly rushed over, knocking away the big man holding the girl. The girl seized the opportunity to bite into the man's hand, breaking free with great effort.
In that mont, Li San saw hope, and without another word, he used the move Swallow Towards Heaven, launching from the wall and charging towards the opponent.
"Close your eyes..."
With a loud shout from Li San towards the two children, a flash of cold light, a slice, and a swift death. Without stopping, Li San pivoted and charged toward the other person.
'Slash...' He only wounded the person and discreetly attached a tracking device to him.
Holding the girl and leading the boy, Li San quickly ran downstairs. If a few more people arrived, it would be completely overwhelming.
On the way back, he received a phone call with Li Kuo's furious shouting. Only then did he learn that Xiaofan had been stabbed and was lying in the hospital. Li San hurriedly ran to the hospital after settling the two children.
Even though Xiaofan was unconscious, having been through so much with him, Li San naturally knew his thoughts. Without a word, he imdiately had Ren Ling take people with him to find the hideout of those bastards. Sure enough, they managed to kill several of them in one strike.
At this mont, although they had severely injured the opponent, Li San was still filled with remorse. He had learned the developnt of events from Ren Ling.
Shen Zuimo—this ti she wasn't found, indicating that Shen Zuimo was likely fooled. Coupled with the information Li Kuo had hacked from Yanhuang Soul, the opponent's plan was evidently very large.
"Alright, stop blaming yourself. The opponent is Shen Zuimo; Xiaofan couldn't avoid it." Seeing the remorseful Li San, Chen i'Er walked over to persuade him.
"If only I had been more careful, more cautious. Recordings can be redone—if I had deliberately asked them so questions back then, maybe Shen Zuimo wouldn't have heard the original words. She would have doubted, would not have believed Xiaofan infiltrated Yanhuang Soul last night. This is all my fault. Despite him trusting so much, knowing full well the opponent captured the two kids, he still trusted to deal with them. But what did I do... I'm just a damn fool."
With that, Li San heavily banged his head against the wall. The so-called brothers through life and death ant complete trust—entrusting one's back—that's brotherhood. He had always been outstanding in this role, even in last night's perilous situation, he could take care of the two little ones beside him. But what did I do?
"Stop banging, it's annoying," Li Kuo was no longer angry at Li San. He couldn't bla Li San for this, nor was Xiaofan's plan flawed. The main problem was, why did Shen Zuimo appear?
"Kuo, let's go explain to Yanhuang Soul," Li San suddenly suggested to Li Kuo.
"I think it's best not to act rashly. At this point, we might still have supporters on the Yanhuang Soul side, but there are also many who are skeptical of us. Besides, our brains—it's him. Until he wakes up, let's quietly search for information. If there's anything that could hold him back, it would be Shen Zuimo."
