Nine-Colored Lotus

Chapter 424 Dare to Fire

"I... I..."

Red Wolf was completely stunned. He never expected Ye Longlin to appear here.

"I didn't know they were your people. If they were your people, I would never have resisted, no matter what you said."

Red Wolf's body trembled, sweat pouring from him. The fear in his eyes enveloped him entirely.

Within the entire prison, there wasn't a single person who dared to claim they could face Ye Longlin directly, nor anyone who dared to say they could remain calm in his presence.

"Is that so? I don't think that's necessarily true. You just said that no one in Qing City could do anything to you. I'm curious, is that based on your Martial Spirit strength alone?"

Ye Longlin spoke calmly, his gaze devoid of any expression, peaceful yet chilling.

"I... I..."

Red Wolf's legs trembled, his face ashen.

Ye Longlin tapped his hand on the table, the "dong, dong, dong" sound echoing as if striking his heart.

Red Wolf was close to tears. He truly hadn't expected the people who came this morning to be his men. If he had known earlier, he would never have dared to touch them.

But now, regret was useless; he could only face reality.

The more Ye Longlin remained silent, the more Red Wolf's anxiety grew. This went on until Red Wolf finally knelt on the ground, close to tears.

"Boss, I beg you, just say whatever you need to say. I'd rather be captured by you than be stuck in this agonizing silence.

It's truly terrifying, do you understand?

"I'll give you a chance. If you're willing to talk, this matter can be dropped."

After a long while, Ye Longlin finally spoke slowly.

Hearing this, Red Wolf let out a sigh of relief and quickly nodded, like a chick pecking for rice.

"You speak, you speak, I will cooperate."

The woman beside him was completely dumbfounded by this scene!

She had initially thought this man was truly formidable, hence her willingness to compromise herself for him.

But who could have imagined that he was such a coward, kneeling immediately upon seeing the other person and being scared out of his wits.

She suddenly felt her actions were in vain and that this fellow was incredibly timid.

"Tell me, who else are the war criminals you know? Tell me everything you know, and I can pretend this never happened.

But if you don't tell me and I find out later, the consequences, hehe..."

Ye Longlin didn't finish his sentence, instead leaving room for imagination, which was enough to scare him to death.

"I... I... I don't know."

He had expected a different question, but to his surprise, it was this. His expression immediately changed.

Ye Longlin asked with a smile, "You really don't know, or are you pretending not to know?"

"Really... really don't know."

He answered tremblingly. He truly didn't know. If he had known, he would have surely told them.

But then he thought, would this matter not be dropped?

At this thought, his blood seemed to freeze, and his pupils became somewhat unfocused.

"So, you're useless?"

"The Glory Hall's orders to me are to capture them if possible, and kill them if capture is not possible."

"What do you think your fate will be?"

Hearing this, his body trembled, and fear appeared in his eyes.

Would he really die?

"You have one minute to consider."

Ye Longlin didn't believe there was no connection between them. After all, they were all the same kind of people, and there should be ways for them to communicate.

For example, if a large-scale arrest of them were to begin, they could strategize and discuss countermeasures. It was impossible for them to have no contact whatsoever!

"Start the timer."

Ye Longlin took off his tactical watch and placed it on the table.

"I really don't know... Even if you kill me, I won't know. I've been working as a lobby manager here since I got out, and I genuinely don't know about matters outside."

He was truly terrified, afraid Ye Longlin would kill him!

Being in prison didn't mean death; at least he could stay alive. Perhaps there would be a chance to get out someday, just like this time. But who could have imagined that the other party would actually track him down, and it would be Ye Longlin himself.

The shadow of death loomed over him, making him feel as if he were living in constant fear.

"You have forty seconds left."

Ye Longlin glanced at the time and reminded him.

This made him even more afraid.

Red Wolf gritted his teeth tightly. He couldn't believe Ye Longlin would actually dare to kill him, especially since he knew information about other war criminals. He didn't believe this information wasn't enough to entice him!

In his opinion, this information was at least enough to save his life.

Even though he was being threatened now, he knew that Ye Longlin wanted information about others, and to get that information, he had to make Red Wolf speak. Therefore, he wasn't too panicked.

Even though the other party was now threatening his life!

"Thirty seconds."

Ye Longlin looked at him, his mind as clear as a mirror. Seeing him like this, he was certain he knew information about others, but he was also gambling, betting that Ye Longlin wouldn't dare to kill him.

He signaled Yuan Gang, who understood. Yuan Gang directly took out a gun, cocked it, and placed it on the table.

Ye Longlin calmly lit a cigarette and slowly drew on it, as time gradually ticked by.

After finishing half the cigarette.

Ye Longlin picked up the watch from the table and put it on his wrist. He then instructed, "Since you don't know about others, then kill him. It would be a waste of our resources otherwise."

Yuan Gang grinned and said, "Okay."

With that, he picked up the handgun and pointed it directly at Red Wolf's forehead, without the slightest hesitation, pulling the trigger.

"Bang!"

The gun fired, and Red Wolf's pupils were filled with terror.

Just as Yuan Gang pulled the trigger, his head instinctively flinched. If not for this lucky break, he would undoubtedly be dead by now.

The other party really dared to shoot!

"Oh, you dare to dodge!"

"It's fine, I guarantee you won't be able to dodge the next shot."

Yuan Gang said with a smile, pressing his hand on Red Wolf's head and pointing the muzzle at his forehead again.

"I'll say it! I'll say it! I'll tell you everything!!"

Red Wolf screamed. In the face of death, no one is fearless, and no one is not afraid of dying.

Moreover, the other party truly dared to shoot!

Yuan Gang looked confused, "Hey, didn't you say you didn't know? Never mind, let's just assume you didn't know. You might as well die, it's troublesome to have our people watching you, and it's not worth it if they kill a few more of us."

Yuan Gang seemed very bothered by the trouble, and Ye Longlin remained silent.

At this point, Red Wolf was truly convinced that he was being toyed with, but he dared not say anything, because he knew the other party dared to shoot.

"Ye Laogui, Ye Laogui is selling vegetables at the northern market!!!!"
