Qiu Wuming did not take the elevator but ran down the ergency staircase instead.
"Brothers, hold your ground, the fish has taken the bait." Lin Chuan ran shouting into his walkie-talkie.
Lu Dapao and others had already surrounded the entrance of the hospital. Upon hearing Lin Chuan's shout, Lu Dapao imdiately yelled, "Brothers, raise the knives in your hands."
"Roar!" The crowd let out an enraged roar.
At that mont, a series of hurried footsteps were heard. Shortly after, Qiu Wuming, with panic written all over his face, ran out from the ergency exit. However, he quickly realized there was no way out. Over twenty people at the hospital entrance had already blocked his path and what was more terrifying was that these twenty or so people simultaneously raised their machetes as if ready to chop him into pieces at any mont.
"Gulp..."
Qiu Wuming swallowed hard, staring in bewildernt at the scene before him.
It wasn't long before Lin Chuan also erged from the ergency staircase, and upon seeing the situation, he sneered, "Qiu Wuming, why aren't you running anymore?!"
"Lin Chuan, you!" Qiu Wuming instantly felt a deep hatred for Lin Chuan. Despite considering himself to have high intelligence, he never thought he would fall into such a despicable trap set by Lin Chuan. One had to admit, Lin Chuan's trap was indeed well laid and compelling.
"Heh heh..." Lin Chuan grinned with a smile.
Qiu Wuming's four henchn also hurriedly ran down, and upon seeing the twenty or so ard people opposite them, their faces turned grim.
"Boss, what should we do?" The four of them quickly gathered around.
"The only option now is to surrender," Qiu Wuming sighed helplessly. He had miscalculated one step despite all the strategizing, and that one misstep led him astray by a thousand miles—misstep in chess, the whole ga is lost.
"Boss, let's fight our way out," the four of them said urgently.
"Forget it." Qiu Wuming shook his head and said, "With Lin Chuan here, we can't escape. Unless Lin Chuan is not here, then maybe we could try."
Qiu Wuming knew Lin Chuan all too well. Once, Lin Chuan had bravely stord into Qinghua Pool all alone, and with his own strength, he defeated nearly two hundred of his n. Just that feat alone was enough to astonish anyone. Where would Qiu Wuming find the courage to confront Lin Chuan?
"Big brother, we can't lose heart!" the four of them said anxiously.
"Lin Chuan, let's sit down and have a good talk," Qiu Wuming said with a smile.
"A defeated general does not have the right to sit down and talk with us," Lin Chuan sneered, "If you really want to talk, you can. Kneel down!"
"You!" Qiu Wuming narrowed his eyes, saying, "Don't be too arrogant, Lin Chuan. This is Jiangbei City, and whether openly or in the shadows, we hold half of the territory. If you let us go, we'll coexist peacefully in the future, and we absolutely won't trouble you. If you don't let us go, we won't let you off."
"Are you threatening ?" Lin Chuan said unhurriedly, clutching a cigarette in his mouth.
"You can take it as a threat or as a warning," Qiu Wuming said with a smile.
"I just want to know if Long Wu was killed by you?" Lin Chuan asked.
"At this point, admitting or denying it makes no difference," Qiu Wuming said with a smile, "Since you've set up this trap, it ans you already have a clue. Well, let admit generously - yes, I killed Long Wu, and it was to fra and entrap Lin Chuan."
"Fuck!" Lu Dapao was enraged, swinging his machete at Qiu Wuming.
Clack...
A strong man beside Qiu Wuming imdiately parried the machete blow. Neither of them backed off after the clash. Lu Dapao, holding the steel blade firmly in both hands, pressed down against the opponent's iron bar. Both n were exerting force in secret.
The strong man was pushing against Lu Dapao's steel blade, while Lu Dapao was firmly pressing down on him.
Both n were suppressing their anger, wishing to crush each other then and there. Unfortunately, the two were evenly matched, and both were red-faced with the effort. Lu Dapao's expression grew fiercer, almost gnashing his teeth to bits.
Bang...
Lu Dapao kicked out, hitting the opponent in the lower abdon, causing him to fall to the ground imdiately.
After falling, the opponent quickly got up, ready to rush at Lu Dapao, but he was stopped by Qiu Wuming.
"Boss, let teach this kid a lesson," the strong man roared, "So he knows his own weight."
"Forget it." The opponent waved his hand and said, "They outnumber us and are more powerful; we've taken the loss today."
Lin Chuan, with the cigarette in his mouth, took a deep inhale and said, "Qiu Wuming, are you coming with voluntarily, or should soone beat you up before you co with ?"
"I'll co with you," Qiu Wuming said with a smile, appearing straightforward without a trace of fear.
"Quite bold," Lin Chuan nodded.
"Big brother, you can't go with them," the four n pleaded, pulling on Qiu Wuming.
"If I don't go with them, do you want to go with them?" Qiu Wuming glanced at them and said, "Hurry back and report to the boss, tell him I've been caught by Lin Chuan."
"Yes!" Upon hearing the command, the four n imdiately nodded in assent.
Qiu Wuming slowly walked over, followed by Li Qiang and Liu Cheng, who quickly stepped forward to subdue him. Qiu Wuming offered no resistance and was eventually taken away by a group of people who put him into a Golden Cup van. After the van departed, the other four n hurried into another vehicle and sped away.
The news that Qiu Wuming was taken from the People's Hospital spread like a bombshell throughout Jiangbei City.
"Breaking news! The third brother of the Northeastern Tiger has been taken from the People's Hospital by Lin Chuan's n."
"No way?!"
"Impossible. How could soone as shrewd and cunning as Qiu Wuming fall into Lin Chuan's hands?"
In the bar, a group of people began exclaiming in shock.
"It's fake news, it has to be fake news!"
"Bullshit, I saw it with my own eyes. Just now on my way here, Lin Chuan and his twenty-odd guys surrounded Qiu Wuming at the hospital, and he was finally taken away in a van by two of Zhou Kai's captains. This news can't be false!"
In a mont, there were those who believed the news and those who didn't, but whatever the case, the news spread like wildfire across Jiangbei City. Everyone was shocked and astounded.
It is the shock that cos from disparity that truly strikes people. And it is such disparities that make the situation seem so bizarre.
The Northeastern Tiger has long been a wily old figure in Jiangbei City, not soone that a rising star like Lin Chuan could easily rival. But although the Northeastern Tiger was an old hand with deep roots, Lin Chuan had fresh vigor and grew astonishingly fast, leaving everyone dumbfounded.
After Lin Chuan and his n brought Qiu Wuming back to the logistics market, they tied him up with ropes.
"Hang him up," Lu Dapao commanded with a wave of his hand, "Let's give him a taste of being hung up too."
Lu Dapao had experienced it himself, and the feeling was truly uncomfortable.
Whirr...
After a flurry of activity by the group, Qiu Wuming was swiftly hoisted up high. Qiu Wuming remained silent; now a prisoner, he was prepared for such treatnt.
"Tsk tsk, who would've thought the third brother of the Northeastern Tiger would fall into our hands," Lu Dapao chuckled gleefully.
Lin Chuan sat down nearby.
"Brother Chuan," Li Qiang hurriedly asked, "What should we do now?"
"Wait," Lin Chuan took a drag of his cigarette.
"Wait for who?" Li Qiang asked in surprise.
"Are you stupid? Of course, we wait for the Northeastern Tiger's n to co rescue him," Liu Cheng said irritably from the side. "How can you be in this world with so little smarts?"
"Uh..." Li Qiang was startled and then laughed awkwardly, "Right, how did I not think of that?"
"Learn more in the future," Liu Cheng said with a laugh.
...
Qinghua Pool.
Upon hearing that his third brother had been captured by Lin Chuan and his people, the Northeastern Tiger flew into a rage.
The Northeastern Tiger imdiately took so n and headed for the logistics market.
When the people at the logistics market learned that the Northeastern Tiger's n had arrived, they panicked.
"Brother Chuan, it's not good, the Northeastern Tiger has brought his n over," Zhou Kai shouted in haste.
"Really?" Lin Chuan's lips curved into a smile.
"Yes!" Zhou Kai nodded frantically, looking quite nervous. Regardless of anything, the Northeastern Tiger's prestige in Jiangbei City was always there.
"Open the gates to welco them," Lin Chuan said with a smile.
"What?" The crowd was stunned, and Liu Cheng awkwardly said, "Brother Chuan, we only have a little over twenty people here, but they have more than a hundred. There's no way we can outfight them."
"Don't worry, they won't dare to make a move," Lin Chuan reassured with a smile.
Upon hearing this, the crowd, trusting Lin Chuan's assurance, proceeded to open the gates.
Soon after, the two iron gates were opened just as the Northeastern Tiger's n were preparing to break them down. With a cigar clenched in his teeth, the Northeastern Tiger sneered, "Finally opened the doors, huh? I thought you lot were planning to cower inside and wait for death!"
