Chapter 727: Think Again

The Chen Family’s power in Jingcheng was indeed formidable.

Xu Shaochen made a Phone call and within half an hour Chen Ju had found information.

“Tell Mr. Xu what you know.”

Chen Ju said looking at a young man.

The young man glanced at Chen Ju then at the expressionless Xu Shaochen and said trembling:

“Mr. Xu I just checked the surveillance footage. I can confirm one of the kidnappers is my… my neighbor.”

“And he… he mentioned making big money tonight while arguing with his wife.”

“Take me to his home.”

Xu Shaochen said coldly his heart turning to ice.

The young man hesitated then mustered the courage to say “About the promised money…”

“Take it!”

As soon as he finished speaking Chen Ju took a stack of cash from a nearby bodyguard and handed it to him.

“Thank you thank you Young Master Chen. I’ll take you to his place right away.”

After receiving the money the young man spoke much more fluently with a fawning smile.

Money indeed makes the mare go. In a city as big as Jingcheng they found a lead so quickly.

Of course this also required a certain level of influence. Otherwise even with money you wouldn’t know where to spend it.

Xie Wei and Hou Xiaoyan were sent back to the hotel with Chen Ju arranging over ten people to ensure their safety.

Then Xu Shaochen led Long Yi and others following the young man to his home.

Twenty minutes later the Car stopped at a residential compound.

“Gentlemen it’s on the third floor Room 008. I’ll call my wife to check if he’s home and if she’s angry.”

After getting paid the young man became exceptionally diligent knowing that if he didn’t work hard after taking the money it might turn into blood money.

A moment later the young man hung up the Phone and said to Xu Shaochen bowing and nodding “Mr. Xu that guy is home eating dinner.”

“Let’s go.”

Xu Shaochen nodded and led the bodyguards upstairs. Chen Ju Zhao Li and Liang Huan also brought people along forming a group of thirty to forty.

They arrived at the door of Room 008.

“Um Mr. Xu… should I…”

The young man looked at Xu Shaochen expectantly.

Xu Shaochen waved his hand and the young man left overjoyed.

After all he didn’t want his neighbor to know he had sold him out for money.

“Knock knock knock…”

Xu Shaochen gave a look and Long Yi stepped forward to knock on the door.

“Who is it?”

“Your upstairs neighbor. I was hanging clothes and accidentally dropped something on your balcony.”

Long Yi said.

“Damn! Can’t you be more careful? Everyone’s knocking can’t even eat in peace.”

Accompanied by a string of curses in a southern accent a young man opened the door.

Seeing so many people outside the young man’s face changed and he instinctively tried to close the door.

“Bang!”

Long Yi kicked out.

“Ah!”

The young man screamed staggering back two steps and falling hard on the floor.

Immediately several bodyguards rushed in and pinned him firmly to the floor.

“What are you doing? Let go of my husband or I’ll call the Police!”

A young woman was startled by this scene her face turning pale.

“This doesn’t concern you. Go squat in the corner!”

One of Chen Ju’s bodyguards pulled out a gun pointing it at the woman and said coldly.

The woman was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat. She obediently went to squat in the corner her shoulders still trembling.

“I believe you know why I’m here. No need for me to ask right?”

Xu Shaochen looked down at the young man expressionless.

“I… I really don’t know.”

The young man thought he could still struggle a bit.

Xu Shaochen’s eyes gradually turned cold and he beckoned.

Long Er put his gun against the young man’s knee and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

“Bang!”

The gunshot rang out and a mist of blood erupted from the young man’s knee completely shattering the kneecap.

“Ah!”

Two screams sounded simultaneously the first being the young man’s cry of agony and the second the woman’s shriek.

“Still don’t know?”

Long Er asked putting the gun muzzle against the young man’s crotch.

“I’ll talk… I’ll talk I’ll talk! Waaah…”

The young man shuddered and screamed hysterically bursting into tears.

“Wasn’t that easier? People are just cheap!”

Xu Shaochen kicked him sneering.

“The… the person is in Cold Storage 031 on Taiping Street.”

“Who ordered you to do this?” Xu Shaochen asked again.

The young man kept shaking his head “I don’t know I don’t know who it was.”

“Think again.” Long Er’s gun pressed against his forehead.

The young man instantly broke out in a cold sweat and said repeatedly “Wait I remember I remember.”

“It was Zhou Jie Zhou Jie contacted us. After it’s done the thirty thousand for the kidnapping his own people are all at the cold storage.”

“Asking for it!”

Long Er smashed the gun against his head blood flowing down his forehead covering his face.

“I trust you know what to say.”

Xu Shaochen said calmly.

“I understand I understand the rules. I’ll take care of it myself. I won’t go to the hospital I know a black market doctor.”

The young man nodded like a pecking chicken realizing these people really could kill him.

Xu Shaochen left with his people.

“Huff… Huff…”

Watching the last person leave the young man seemed to have all strength drained from his body lying on the ground breathing heavily savoring the joy of surviving a close call.

“What… what’s going on? Didn’t you tell me you… you worked at a security company?”

The woman in the corner stuttered her eyes filled with fear.

“Security company? If I were really a security guard could I afford a Car and house in Jingcheng?”

The young man gave a bitter laugh his voice hoarse and low.

The woman fell silent her thoughts of divorce fading a bit “Can we… can we stop doing this? I’m… I’m scared.”

“We’ll stop never again.”

The young man hurriedly said. This was the closest he’d ever been to death. He’d rather run a small business in the future than earn this kind of quick money again.

He had realized there was no good outcome in this.

…

Taiping Street Cold Storage 031.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Muffled sounds echoed continuously in the cold storage.

Deng Tianwen was hanging suspended with only his boxers left. Two tattooed men surrounded him beating him with clubs.

A young man in a suit and overcoat with a cigar in his mouth watched this scene coldly.

This was the young man who had driven the blue BMW attempting to kidnap Xie Wei.

Compared to when he was kidnapping there was now a wound on his forehead.

“Kid! Do you know where this cut on my head came from? Young Master Xiao hit me. Because you messed things up he hit me. So tell me how should I deal with you?”

Deng Tianwen’s face was covered in blood. Gritting his teeth he said “If you don’t beat me to death today I… I will definitely make you regret it.”
