Chapter Seventy-Five: Lightning on a Rainy Night
"Big brother." When he walked to no one's place, Datou Li reported to Ah Fa, "Those guys came to ask clearly, they are Hong Jiubao's people." Do you want to make arrangements in advance to prevent them from coming to retaliate? ”
Hong Jiubao belongs to the Qing Gang, and has opened several brothels behind the Ningbo Hotel in Fuzhou Zhuangyuan Building, and has some apprentices, but his power is not strong. But the backer behind him was You Agen, the explorer of the Laozha Fishing House in the Public Concession, who was also a figure in the Green Gang and one of the big forces of the Shanghai traffickers at that time.
Ah Fa pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Let the brothers of Yixingtang keep an eye on Hong Jiu and Youagen, and report any news immediately." Recruit some more brothers to come here to watch the game, and don't allow other gangs to make trouble with us. Well, we'll do a good job here, but don't show your face yet. Let's go out and practice tonight and clean up Yuagen and Hong Jiu. By the way, they grabbed some money and bought rice for the hungry people to eat. ”
"Understood, big brother." Datou Pear nodded, and said as a matter of course: "The first strike is the strongest, and there is no reason to wait for others to come to the door." ”
"Strike first is just one of the reasons." Ah Fa sneered and explained: "The main thing is to raise the flag. Like Youagen, Hong Jiubao and others, sooner or later they will have to face each other. The Green Gang is our enemy, and if we don't defeat them, our Xinglongtang won't be able to dominate Shanghai Beach. ”
"Domination - Shanghai Beach?" Big-headed pear repeated with some difficulty, gang fights like the dock grab were inevitable, but it was the first time he knew such a big target.
"That's right." Ah Fa confirmed firmly, and said viciously: "Whoever stands in our way, whoever disobeys us, will be destroyed, and there is no ambiguity." Send the list and the statement to the newspapers immediately, and we're going to get rid of it. ”
……………
The sky was gray and heavy, and it was so low that people couldn't breathe. The misty drizzle became more and more dense, followed by raindrops the size of beans, which fell on the ground and on the roof.
The hall was filled with the smell of blood and slaughter, a big man fell in a pool of blood, and the other nested on the ground, covering the wound under his ribs, and did not dare to speak out in pain. Hong Jiubao looked miserable and sat on the ground, while his daughter Hong Xiaowu sobbed quietly while wrapping the wound on his leg with a handkerchief and towel.
A big man wearing a black hood and only two eyes stood with a gun, coldly watching these people.
The thief doesn't do anything, Ah Fa wants to reach such a realm and level, but he still doesn't feel at ease to follow the command. After all, these people have only a short training day, and they are far from being experienced.
So far, the operation has gone smoothly, Youagan has been successfully kidnapped, stuffed in the carriage outside like a mess of cotton wool, the whole family of Jin Jiubao has been subdued and imprisoned, and the gold, silver and money have also been looted. When it was time to leave, Ah Fa returned to the hall for the final touches.
Although everyone wore hoods and were referred to by code names when they acted, they all had secret marks on their hoods, and it was clear who they were at a glance. Seeing Ah Fa coming in, the big man was silent, but he bowed his hand slightly, showing Ah Fa's identity as the leader. Datou Li pointed at the Golden Nine Leopard, made a downward cutting gesture, and asked Ah Fa's opinion with his eyes.
Jin Jiubao has been mixed in the rivers and lakes for so long, and he still has that bit of eyesight, and when he saw that it was not good, he immediately clenched his fists in pain and said: "This master, today, I Jin Jiu admit it." Seven killings, punishing evil and promoting good, have a great reputation in Shanghai. Jin Jiu did a lot of evil things that lost his conscience, and he died innocently, and he didn't dare to ask the seven masters to spare his life. But this has nothing to do with my family, please let them go! ”
"When retribution comes, do you remember that you are also a person with children and daughters?" Ah Fa sneered and said, "It has nothing to do with your family, it's really a joke." Aren't they all the stolen money you earned, and maybe they help you do evil? You're innocent of death, but your dog life is a fart. ”
"The master is right, taking my Jin Jiu's life is as easy as crushing an ant to death in the eyes of the seven masters." Jin Jiu laughed miserably and said: "If the seven masters can let my family members go, they will close the brothel tomorrow, and then pay the ransom money, and also, those prostitutes * women, each of them will be paid to be dismissed, isn't this also the merit of the seven masters." ”
Ah Fa's eyes blinked slowly, his gaze looked at Jin Jiubao, and then swept over Hong Xiaowu's face stained with tears, thinking about it and slowly straightening his waist. In the anxious and hopeful gaze of the Golden Nine Leopard, Ah Fa said slowly: "One hundred thousand ransom fees; Shut down the brothel, and the prostitute will pay for the dismissal; Disband your men, you deal with the guilty and damned......"
Jin Jiubao nodded vigorously, hearing this, not only was his family fine, but he also picked up his own life. There are a lot of conditions, but now I can't manage it, so I agreed to come down first.
"Stay honest and move in two hours." Ah Yang raised his chin and signaled that his men could retreat, he walked to the entrance of the hall, suddenly turned around and shouted, "Open your hands and raise them." ”
Jin Jiubao didn't know why, so he was stunned and slowly spread his fingers and raised them above his head.
"Phew!" After a muffled sound, Jin Jiubao snorted in pain, gritted his teeth and held back, covering his palms and trembling in pain, and one of his little fingers had been knocked off.
"Hmph, I'll leave you a mark today, and if you let the master find the handle in the future, I will kill your whole family." Ah Fa threw down a threatening sentence and stepped out of the hall.
Whew, Jin Jiubao exhaled a long breath, although the pain was still unbearable, from the spirit to the body, he was paralyzed.
…………….
After leaving Jin's house, everyone dispersed in a carriage according to the original plan. The car in which Ah Fa was riding stopped in a sparse forest on the ground of the Chinese realm. This is where Yoagen's bones are buried.
"This is it." Commanded by the big pear, the four of them threw Yuagan in the sack into the pre-dug pit, and then divided the shovels to dig the earth and bury it.
In the silent woods, except for shovels on the ground, the rain hitting the leaves, and the sound of rubbing, there is no sound at all. Suddenly, a person heard a dull **, startled, and the shovel in his hand fell to the ground with a thud.
"This red guy is not dead?"
"Nonsense!" Iron arm flicked his hand: "This monkey, I only need two fingers to take his dog's life." ”
"Hmm-" Yuagan in the sack spoke again, and this time everyone heard it, and they were all stunned.
"Damn." Iron Arm's eyes widened, his teeth gritted loudly, and he felt embarrassed, after all, it was his hand. After a pause, he grabbed the shovel in his right hand and was about to jump into the pit.
"Come back." The big pear screamed, stretched out his hand and grabbed the iron arm, and said in a low voice: "You don't need to spend more energy, hurry up and bury the pit, the eldest brother is still waiting in the car!" ”
The iron arm still refuses to follow, and the big-headed pear has already beckoned others to shovel soil and fill the pit, and keeps urging. At the moment when the cave was sealed, a pitch-black sky suddenly lit up with a white light, and for a while, a dull thunder rumbled and exploded.
