Chapter 215: A Hundred Million to Kill Xiao Yifeng

Chapter 215: Chapter 215: A Hundred Million to Kill Xiao Yifeng"Captain Xiao, what’s the matter?" Dai Li looked at Xiao Ruolin’s expression, his own features registering surprise.

"Chief, the investigation has already made everything so clear. Why haven’t we taken action against Yang Corporation? They are harboring the Japanese who stole treasures from China, and they’re also connected to those twenty trafficked girls. How can we just let this go so easily?"

Xiao Ruolin said with a face full of indignation.

"Captain Xiao, calm down. Don’t be so impulsive. Although the dock and the cargo ship belong to Yang Corporation, we do not have direct evidence to prove their involvement in this case," Dai Li said.

"Plus, they’ve already created a scapegoat. So, it’s not just me—even the city bureau can’t touch them. After all, you know the Yang Family’s and Yang Corporation’s status in Tianhai. Without direct evidence, we simply can’t move against them," he said with a sense of helplessness.

"Are we really going to just drop this matter?" Xiao Ruolin’s face looked awful, filled with reluctance.

"Alright, the city bureau will handle this case. Let’s talk about something else. For your outstanding performance during the operation, you have already been awarded a commendation," Dai Li continued.

"Also, the city bureau has issued an order for you to take up the position of deputy captain of the Criminal Police Brigade. You will go to the city bureau for your appointment tomorrow," Dai Li said, looking at Xiao Ruolin.

"This..." Xiao Ruolin’s expression was one of surprise.

At this moment, Dai Li stood up, walked over to Xiao Ruolin, and patted her shoulder, saying:

"Ruo Lin, your transfer to the city bureau is a matter of pride for our branch office. Do well when you get there, and you’ll have a boundless future. Don’t let down your father’s expectations," he said.

Meanwhile, in Kyoto, Japan.

Within the Ishii Clan, Ishii Taihu sat with a dour face, his eyes flashing with a frosty glint as Yamada Taka knelt before him.

Having jumped into the sea from the ship, Yamada Taka was luckily rescued by a Japanese vessel and immediately reported everything to Ishii Taihu upon his return.

Bang!

A dull sound erupted as Ishii Taihu slapped his hand heavily on the table, his body exuding an icy aura, his eyes sparkling with furious cold light.

"Xiao Yifeng, this damn bastard, not only did he cripple my son, but now he has also caused my Ishii Clan to lose so much treasure. He’s detestable beyond measure!" Ishii Taihu hissed coldly.

"Patriarch, it is my failure. I did not complete the task you entrusted to me," Yamada Taka said, half-kneeling on the ground, his face full of guilt.

"You will take my letter immediately to the Koga Sect!" Ishii Taihu ordered coldly.

"Patriarch, are you going to..." Yamada Taka looked at Ishii Taihu with some hesitation.

"I want that bastard dead at all costs. Tell the Sect Master of the Koga Sect that I will give him a billion, no matter the cost, to bring me that kid’s head," Ishii Taihu’s voice was cold, filled with murderous intent.

"Also, make another trip to the Yinsha Sect and inform them about the Tokugawa matter. Since this guy has ruined even the Yinsha Sect’s plans,"

"then let the Yinsha Sect give him a lesson as well. I refuse to believe he won’t die this way," Ishii Taihu grunted, his eyes brimming with killing intent, fists creaking tightly.

In a bar in Tianhai, a man clothed in a gray coat entered, featuring a crew cut and a weathered face, though his features were sharply defined.

The man appeared to be a laborer from a construction site, but he exuded a dangerous aura. He walked into the bar and immediately headed towards a booth at the side.

There, in the booth, sat a man in a black shirt drinking vodka, none other than Dongzi, the bodyguard of Xu Ruhai.

"Here you are, take a seat." Dongzi watched the man approach, said a word, and the latter sat down in front of him, taking out a pack of cigarettes that cost five yuan.

"Smoke mine," Dongzi offered his own Zhonghua brand.

"No need, that stuff is too expensive. If I get hooked, I can’t afford it."

The man said and took out a cigarette from his own pack to smoke.

"Luo Yun, with your abilities and strength, you really don’t need to live such a hard life," Dongzi said. "As long as you are willing, plenty of bosses would love to hire you as their bodyguard."

"Forget it, Dongzi, I’m not like you. I don’t want to work as a bodyguard for some rich young masters, doing all those dirty deeds, and becoming a thug. That’s not the life I want," the man replied, taking a puff of his cigarette and blowing out a ring of smoke.

Dongzi squinted his eyes and countered, "But is the life you’re living now the one you want? I know your father is seriously ill and needs a lot of money for treatment."

"The reason I’m here today is to give you an opportunity. If you help my boss with one thing, this check for two million is yours. I believe it should be enough to cure your father," Dongzi said, pulling out a check for two million from his pocket and placing it in front of the man, who didn’t even look at it and replied:

"Dongzi, although I really need the money, I always remember that I was once a soldier. I absolutely won’t do anything that offends my conscience or breaks the country’s laws."

"Don’t worry, this won’t violate any laws. It’s just a matter of dealing with someone who has injured my boss’s son," Dongzi assured.

"My boss is furious and wants someone to teach him a lesson. All you have to do is strike, and the two million are yours. If it’s not enough, you can name your price," Dongzi said calmly.

The man frowned slightly, with a cigarette between his fingers and a hesitating expression on his face.

"What’s the matter? Luo Yun, do you really intend to watch the father who raised you for over twenty years die like this? Will your conscience be clear then?" Dongzi pressed on.

"Fine, I’ll do it. But I absolutely will not kill," Luo Yun took a drag from his cigarette, flicked it away, and pocketed the check.

"Relax, you don’t have to kill anyone. Just give him a good beating, that’s all," Dongzi said with a cold smile on his face.

At that time, Xiao Yifeng, after helping Wang Miaomiao with her treatment, headed to Ye Corporation. As soon as he entered the building, he saw Dahu and Erhu standing tall and proud in their security uniforms.

Both of them hailed Xiao Yifeng as "Boss" upon seeing his arrival.

"How do you find working here?" Xiao Yifeng asked them casually.

"It’s great; it’s much easier than our previous jobs and it pays more too," Dahu replied with a beaming smile.

"Yeah, this is so much better than working on the construction site," Erhu added with a grin.

"Do well here, and eventually, I’ll make sure you earn even more money," Xiao Yifeng said with a smile and then left the place.

Back at the sales department, everyone was busily at work, in stark contrast to Xiao Yifeng, who leisurely took his seat.

"Brother Xiao!"

Fang Siqi called out to Xiao Yifeng with a mixture of hesitation, anxiety, and nervousness in her eyes.
