Chapter 105 Trap

Saint Paul, the slums.

In the basement of a Chinese store, Qiu Ge was pulling open his clothes, strapping grenades to his body. The phone on the table buzzed; it was a message from An Qiqi, containing an address and information about a black man.

"Imre..." Qiu Ge muttered the man's name, then put his phone in his pocket and turned to his men beside him. "Let's go, we've got a job."

More than a dozen people in the room got up together, quickly following Qiu Ge out.

About twenty minutes later, they arrived at their target location.

This was the heart of the slums, full of entertainment venues, chaotic. Everywhere he looked, there were signs in Latin for "Casinos," "Brothels," and "Bars," with not a single normal shop in sight.

The pickup truck slowly stopped at the entrance of a dark alley. Qiu Ge sat in the car, looking inside. Seven or eight burly black men were sitting in the alley, drinking beer and singing. Further in, some houses were lit with pink lights, and many scantily clad women stood at the door, soliciting customers.

"Qiu Ge, who's the target this time?" The brother in the passenger seat asked in a low voice.

"The boss here, Imre," Qiu Ge replied calmly.

"Do you know the exact location?" The brother looked around.

"It's in that white building inside," Qiu Ge said, pointing to a three-story building deep in the alley. There were many gang members around the building, with obvious firearms on their waists and shoulders.

The team member observed and couldn't help saying, "There are too many people, this... it's not easy."

Qiu Ge turned to look at him. "If it was easy, we wouldn't be here. Give me the pigeon."

Hearing this, the team member handed Qiu Ge a small drone. After debugging, he quickly launched it into the air.

Two minutes later, Qiu Ge spread the printed aerial view of the building on the armrest box, took out a red marker, and drew a few lines on the map. "Team One will go in with me in a while. Except for Xiaoyu, Hua Tsai, and Da Jun, everyone else will approach the roof from here. Move as soon as you hear my signal, and go directly to the third floor. Xiaoyu, the three of you follow me, only take pistols and grenades, disguise yourselves as tourists to infiltrate, and we will enter from the front. Team Two, your people set up guns in the surrounding blocks and provide fire cover in the dark. Team Three, find positions nearby, don't concentrate, disperse to cover our retreat. Understand?"

"Understood!" Everyone nodded immediately.

Qiu Ge added, "Remember, as soon as you hear gunfire, you must control the primary target. If we can't control him, we'll all be stuck inside. If the primary target isn't there, grab whoever is in charge, be sure to take them alive!"

After instructing them, Qiu Ge pushed the door open and got out of the car. The other team members also got out of some surrounding vehicles, and everyone quickly dispersed, blending into the surrounding crowd. Xiaoyu and the other three followed Qiu Ge, pretending to be tourists, and walked into the alley.

"Handsome guy, come in and play? The girls are great!" The alley was full of people soliciting customers. As soon as they entered, a thin, middle-aged Chinese man came up to them. He pulled over a tall, sturdy black girl, blocked Qiu Ge and the others, grinned, and reached out to tear off the girl's bra, strongly recommending, "Exciting, isn't it? Come on, don't be shy, you can touch."

The black men across the street also grinned, shouting to Qiu Ge and the others in broken Mandarin: "Hey, wanna gamble? Brothers."

Qiu Ge ignored the red-light district people, just waved as he walked forward, taking Xiaoyu and the others, swaggering inside.

After a while, approaching the white building, Qiu Ge tilted his head slightly and said into the microphone, "All teams, report positions!"

"Team Two in position!"

"Team Three in position!"

"Team One is about to be in position!"

The voices of the team leaders reporting came from the earpiece.

At the same time, in a corner behind the white building, several figures were nimbly climbing up the outside drainpipe, quickly occupying the high ground.

"Team One in position!" Hearing the report in the earpiece, Qiu Ge nodded, then glanced at the entrance of the white building. Six or seven burly black men were sitting at a table, drinking and watching a ball game.

"Prepare to move." Qiu Ge ordered, and everyone began to act.

...

Saint Paul, Huaxing Business.

"The number you dialed is temporarily unavailable..."

Wu Boxin sat in his office, having dialed Huo Dongsheng's number for the forty-ninth time, but the voice in the receiver was still the unavailable message. He tried calling Huang Peishan, but no one answered either.

Wu Boxin slammed the phone heavily on the desk in anger and cursed, "What the hell does Huo Dongsheng think he's doing?"

Saying this, Wu Boxin stood up and said to the secretary beside him, "Let's go, let's go out, we'll go directly to him!"

The secretary smiled bitterly: "President, we can't get out. Huo Dongsheng's people have surrounded the building, they won't let us leave. I asked, and they said that there are internal changes in the Huagong Association, and they told us not to go out for the time being."

Hearing this, Lao Wu slumped back into his chair.

Just as he was frowning and thinking, the phone on the desk suddenly rang. Lao Wu picked it up and saw that it was a Hua district number. He answered it and asked a little impatiently, "Who is it?"

"Hello, sir." A gentle voice came from the phone. "I am your son, Wu Taiyong. Do you remember me?"

Wu Boxin was already in a bad mood, and hearing his son's slightly teasing words, he was so angry that he started cursing: "You little bastard, what the hell are you trying to do?"

Wu Taiyong chuckled: "Have you figured out what's going on yet?"

Wu Boxin was slightly stunned, and Wu Taiyong continued: "If you haven't figured it out, let me tell you what the situation is now. Comrade Wu Boxin, you've been played! Huo Dongsheng established this Huaxing Business for the purpose of getting you to help him get started, so that he can use the business he built to trade for a bigger position, just like Song Jiang did. Do you understand now? You've been imprisoned! Do you know how worried I am to have a father like you?!"

"Shut up!" Wu Boxin was so angry that his hair was disheveled, but in fact, he had already realized what was happening, but he was reluctant to admit it, because before, Huo Dongsheng had really not revealed any flaws.

"I've already called the An family," Wu Taiyong said, "Only you in the Huaxing Business are still in the dark, not knowing anything."

Wu Boxin put his hands on his hips and cursed, "You know nothing!!!"

"Forget it, I can't explain it to you," Wu Taiyong gave up, he said helplessly, "I'll let someone who can explain it to you talk to you."

After speaking, Wu Taiyong hung up the phone.

Soon after, another unfamiliar number called Wu Boxin's phone...
