Hellfire is famous in St. George's and is a household name.

Its history can be traced back to the time when the slum of St. George first appeared, and most of its earliest members were retired soldiers from Barparo, who went to the point of no return for the gang because of poverty, and gradually grew to the size it is today.

Hellfire owns more than a quarter of the territory in the slums of St. George, and its members are far more active than that, with some people once saying that at least 20% of the crimes that occurred in St. George's were related to Hellfire.

Moreover, Hellfire had fought with the Barparo military and police many times, repelling the latter's sweep of the slums of St. George, and had a high prestige among the inhabitants of the slums.

This is exactly what makes Zhang Yaoming and Inspector Tang feel very tricky.

Although Zhang Yaoming called the police and also locked up the kidnappers through surveillance video, don't expect the Western District Police Department to send someone to rescue Gu Kai and Zhang Yun, because none of the military police dared to go deep into the territory controlled by Hellfire.

"I don't know where they offended Hellfire..."

President Chen of the Chinatown Self-Management Association sighed: "Chinatown has an agreement with the gangs in the slums, including Hellfire, and under normal circumstances, they will not affect our normal life, and it has always been good before. ”

The so-called agreement, of course, is to pay a protection fee, Chinatown is adjacent to the slum of St. George, and if it does not benefit the local gangs, life will definitely not be peaceful.

Zuo Yi thought for a while and asked, "Then what are you going to do now?"

Miss Sun said, "Our Huaixiatang has already found an intermediary to prepare to negotiate with Hellfire, first ask what is going on, and then find a way to save the person back. ”

Zuo Yi nodded.

This Miss Sun seems to be quite mysterious, and she is also a transcendent being, but he knows something about Huaixiatang.

The predecessor of Huaixiatang was the royalist party of Great Xia, when the political system of Great Xia was changed, there was a bloody storm, the royalist party and the reform party were bloody, once shook the national capital, and was almost taken advantage of by foreign enemies.

At the time of the national crisis, the royal family was forced to abdicate and no longer hold the power of the country, which made Great Xia enter a new era.

From today's point of view, the civil war between the two countries at that time was of great significance to Bactria at that time, and the victory of the Reform Party saved this increasingly decaying power, and it was reborn from the ashes and rebuilt to glory.

But it was a tragic thing for the losers, and the remnants of the battered royalist faction, fearing liquidation, fled overseas, and Huaixiatang was one of them.

Zuo Yi has a very high authority in the super management bureau system, can browse a lot of confidential information, and he often flips through the database in his spare time, so he has a lot of insider information.

Huaixiatang is actually very good, and has always been committed to uniting overseas Chinese and safeguarding the interests of Daxia immigrants, unlike some factions that regard the newborn Daxia as a grudge and do some unpopular things.

Jingle bells!

At this time, the mobile phone on the table in front of Zhang Yaoming suddenly rang.

He hurriedly picked it up and answered: "Hey?"

Soon, Zhang Yaoming's face changed, and he said a few words to the other party in a hurried tone.

Zuo Yi couldn't understand it, and speculated that he should be speaking Portuguese.

Portuguese is the official language of Barparo, and English is also popular in the country, with most people speaking both languages.

After hanging up, he said, "It's the people of Hellfire, let me prepare a million dollars in cash to ransom people." ”

"it!"

Inspector Tang opened his mouth and scolded: "Why don't they rob it?"

The asking price for this ransom is really a bit excessive, you must know that Gu Kai and Zhang Yun are not rich people, and their entire net worth is not one million US dollars.

But it was Zhang Yaoming who was blackmailed by the kidnappers of Hellfire.

President Chan and Miss Sun looked at each other.

"When to trade?"

Zuo Yi's expression was indifferent: "Are you okay?"

"I asked. ”

Zhang Yaoming said angrily: "They asked me to prepare the money and then contact, as long as the person who gave the money will be fine, but they only give me twelve hours of fundraising time, and I will bear the consequences if I exceed the time!"

He has developed in St. George's for so many years, and his career is quite successful, and he still has a net worth of tens of millions.

But it's hard to come up with a million dollars in cash at once.

Zhang Yaoming looked at Chairman Chen.

If the Chinatown Self-Management Committee had stepped in, it would have been no problem to raise the ransom within 12 hours.

"That's fine. ”

Zuo Yi said without thinking: "I gave out this million dollars." ”

As he spoke, he reached out and opened the backpack at his feet, grabbed Tyke out of it, and then fumbled around and grabbed bundles of dollar bills and placed them on the table.

Of course, the money was taken out of the spatial ring, and in terms of the amount of inventory, it could only be regarded as a drizzle.

However, Zhang Yaoming and the three were shocked.

Who would have thought that Zuo Yi would carry so much US dollars with him, as if he knew it in advance.

After taking out a full million US dollars, Zuo Yi stuffed Tek back into his backpack and said to Zhang Yaoming: "Call them, just say that the money will be ready immediately, ask them when to ransom the deal, and let them have to ensure the safety of the hostages." ”

Zhang Yaoming picked up the phone again in a daze.

"Can't fight!"

Before Zhang Yaoming could dial the number, a burly man with a tiger's back suddenly broke into the private room with someone on his back, and said in a deep voice: "I already know who the kidnapper is, and paying the ransom to replace the person is the stupidest solution!"

Miss Sun frowned, got up and asked, "Senior Brother Gao, why are you here?"

"I'm here to stop you from doing stupid things!"

The burly man waved his hand and said: "The kidnapper of Boss Gu and his wife is the person from the Hellfire Iron Fist Paul, we must show them a tough position, otherwise we will taste the sweetness, with this time and next time, we will not think about having a peaceful birthday in the future!"

Zhang Yaoming's faces changed in unison, and their eyes showed a look of jealousy.

"Iron Fist Paul..."

Zuo Yi asked lightly, "Is it amazing?"

Miss Sun hesitated for a moment and said, "Iron Fist Paul is one of the seven leaders of Hellfire, and he is also a member of the Golden Mask. ”

The Golden Mask is synonymous with the Tisland Transcendent Federation, representing the largest and most powerful transcendent force in South America, and Iron Fist Paul is not only a powerful transcendent, but also a representative of the new generation of forces in Hellfire.

Born in the slums of St. George's, Iron Fist Paul mastered a group of daring forces at a young age, and he had a strong voice within Hellfire, with a violent personality and unscrupulous behavior, but a high prestige.

So knowing that it was the Iron Fist Paul who kidnapped Gu Kai and Zhang Yun and his wife, Zhang Yaoming and the three of them felt extremely tricky.

And the burly man's attitude is very clear, that is, no compromise!

He was full of confidence: "Iron Fist Paul is very powerful, but our Huaixiatang is not muddy!"
