After Niqiu was knocked down, Xiang Fei and Tang Qing woke up one after another. They were all shocked to see the three people lying on the ground. Especially when Xiang Fei saw Zheng Yubai pressing his fingers on Niqiu's eyelids, he couldn't help but stare with wide eyes and a look of astonishment. When he saw the unconscious brothers Jinyin Cufflinks, Zheng Yubai's expression was as if he had seen a ghost.
"My leg is broken and I can't fight anymore. Please let me go." Although the loach with a broken leg had very hard bones and was sweating all over his head but refused to cry out in pain, he was restrained by Zheng Yubai like this and his fighting spirit was completely gone. He could only beg for mercy.
Zheng Yubai didn't dare to let go rashly. He had to use a trick and took advantage of the fact that the man's legs were covered with pants and didn't slip to win with a sweeping kick. If he was able to escape and get mad enough to strip off all his clothes, then even if his legs were broken, Zheng Yubai would definitely not be his opponent.
Fortunately, Zheng Yubai had another trick. He reached out with his other hand and struggled to find the aorta under the back of the head. Although the neck of the loach was also very slippery, at such a close distance, Zheng Yubai slowly found the acupuncture point and slowly exerted force. The loach's eyes rolled back, he mumbled, and then fainted. He would not wake up for two hours.
After collecting the loaches, Zheng Yubai walked over to help Xiang Feilai up, and said to Xu Jin and Tang Qing, "We can't stay here for long. Let's go."
This time there were no aliens to stop them, and the four of them quickly left the stadium's outer field and hurried away amid the surprised gazes of many fans waiting at the gate.
It was not until twenty minutes after Zheng Yubai and his companions left that someone discovered the unconscious Gold and Silver Cufflinks brothers and Loach.
When Fang Hongjin arrived, the Gold and Silver Cufflinks brothers and Loach had already been rescued. Seeing the confused twin brothers and Loach with a broken leg, Fang Hongjin's face turned ashen.
"What kind of person did this?" Fang Hongjin asked coldly.
The performance in the stadium was still going on. The spiritual songs had already ended, but the performance continued. The hypnotized audience members gradually regained consciousness. In their memories, they only remembered that they had a wonderful experience, but no one could explain what happened in detail.
The lively scene inside was back in full swing, Lan Ruoer continued to sing, and the audience watched her performance as fascinated as always, as if nothing had happened. But Fang Hongjin outside was like an ant on a hot pot, because from the description of the gold and silver cufflinks brothers and the loach, the most threatening one of the four people was too similar to someone he was familiar with.
"Zheng Yubai... why are you still haunting me!" Fang Hongjin gritted his teeth. If Zheng Yubai appeared in front of him now, he would definitely rush over and fight him to the death. He had taken over this plan from Warner after much difficulty. If it succeeded, his future would be limitless, much more glorious than being the vice president of the Sanjiang Association. But now Zheng Yubai was like a time bomb in the plan. Once it exploded, everything would be lost.
Thinking of the military order he had signed before coming to the United States, Fang Hongjin felt a chill all over his body. He said sternly: "Everyone who is alive must be on standby at all times." After that, he turned around and went to a secluded corner and dialed a number.
"Hello, I'm Fang Hongjin. I need Zheng Yubai's place to stay right now, the sooner the better."
The voice on the other end was confused: "Why do you want his place?"
"Why are you asking so many questions? I helped you and your son solve a big problem, now it's time for you to repay me. Besides, you must want Zheng Yubai to die soon."
He hesitated for a moment and told Fang Hongjin that he would investigate it as soon as possible.
After hanging up the phone, Fang Hongjin dialed another number. This time he said directly: "E, I know you have been planning to deal with Zheng Yubai. How about we do it together?"
Zheng Yubai didn't know that Fang Hongjin had already set his sights on him. The four of them took a taxi and drove around the street several times before arriving at a secluded corner.
After getting off the car, Xiang Fei coughed a few times and his body had almost recovered, at least he could move freely. The "lion's roar" just now consumed a lot of water in his body. After drinking a large bottle of water in the taxi and resting for a while, he was obviously in better spirits, but his face was still very pale, like a piece of pale paper.
"They shouldn't be chasing us." Zheng Yubai looked back. In his mind, there was no danger around, and the other party should not have sent any pursuers.
"What are you afraid of? Cousin, you are so powerful. Even if they catch up with you, they will definitely not be your match." Tang Qing has recovered from the shock just now. This is the second time she has been rescued by Zheng Yubai. Her admiration for Zheng Yubai is beyond words.
Xiang Fei on the side suddenly asked: "Yu...Brother Yu Bai...are you also an alien?"
Zheng Yubai didn't know Xiang Fei's specific background, so he didn't tell the truth, but said: "I just know some martial arts."
Xiang Fei said "Oh", with a hint of distrust in his tone.
"Xiang Fei, how did you yell so loudly just now?" Tang Qing then remembered what happened just now and asked Xiang Fei hurriedly.
Xiang Fei looked around and whispered, "This is about a big secret. I am not an ordinary person, but an alien."
Xu Jin had heard Zheng Yubai talk about it before, and had also seen a little about the aliens, so he was not surprised at this moment. Instead, Tang Qing widened her eyes, not understanding what Xiang Fei was talking about.
Xiang Fei explained the abilities of the aliens in detail. Tang Qing said in disbelief, "Is there really such a person?"
"Otherwise, how do you explain that the shadows on the ground can move by themselves, and how do you explain my Lion Soul ability?" Xiang Fei said with a little pride. After all, he was still young and did not notice that Zheng Yubai and Xu Jin did not show any emotion at all.
Tang Qing thought about it and felt that there was indeed some supernatural factor in what happened just now. She said half-doubtfully: "Why is this happening? We are just watching a concert."
Xiang Fei glanced at Zheng Yubai and whispered, "Brother Yubai, what did you find out?"
Zheng Yubai scratched his head, not wanting them to get involved, and just said, "They look like they want to do something bad. I think it's better to call the police."
Xiang Fei frowned and said, "This kind of thing cannot be reported to the police. The affairs of the aliens must be resolved by the aliens themselves. You don't have to worry about this matter. I have my own ideas."
Seeing Xiang Fei, who was still a child, with a serious face, Zheng Yubai didn't say much. He already had a plan in his mind. As for Xiang Fei's plan, Zheng Yubai thought it should be related to the Superman Association. However, he didn't reveal anything, but just reminded Xiang Fei to be careful.
Seeing that it was already very late and Xiang Fei had nothing to do, Zheng Yubai asked Xiang Fei to take Tang Qing home. After he and Xu Jin watched the two leave, he took out his phone and dialed Leng Tie's number.
Leng Tie's cell phone was turned on 24 hours a day, and the call was connected immediately after it rang twice. Zheng Yubai briefly explained what had just happened. There was silence on the other end of the receiver for a moment, and then Leng Tie's iron-hard voice sounded again.
"This matter is very serious. If it is convenient for you, come to my place immediately and we can discuss it in detail."
After hanging up the phone, Zheng Yubai first sent Xu Jin home, and then went to the Special Affairs Management Bureau. On the way, he did not forget to call Caoji and asked him to help check the details of Warner. When he arrived, Leng Tie and the senior officials of the Digital Management Bureau were already there, and Wu Neng was also there with sleepy eyes, which made Zheng Yubai feel a little strange.
"Brother Yubai, I heard that you had a big fight with the aliens today?" As soon as he saw Zheng Yubai, Wuneng's eyes suddenly lit up. This guy really likes fun. After listening to Zheng Yubai's brief account of the battle with the Gold and Silver Cuffs brothers and the loach, his saliva was almost flowing out.
Leng Tie's face was not very good. Someone was doing this kind of trick in Jinghai secretly. As the director of the Special Affairs Management Bureau, he didn't get any information in advance. This was a huge omission. Looking at the frustrated expressions of several cadres under him, it seemed that they had just been reprimanded by Leng Tie, and they were all like eggplants hit by frost.
Just after he finished explaining the details, Zheng Yubai received a text message on his phone. The message was from Caoji, and the content was very simple.
"Warner is an American agency of the Skull and Bones Society."
Just a few words made things even more confusing. Zheng Yubai showed the text message to Leng Tie, and Leng Tie's face became even more gloomy.
A moment later, Leng Tie's secretary came in with a thick stack of information. Although they didn't get any intelligence in advance, it must be said that the management bureau was still working vigorously after the incident. In just a short time, the information of Warner Company, Fang Hongjin, Lan Ruoer and others had been found. Although some of the information was relatively simple, it was also very useful for understanding the background of the incident.
"I see..." After reading the information, Zheng Yubai finally understood the relationship between Warner and Fang Hongjin.
Although Lan Ruoer was born and raised in Beijing, she went to the United States with her mother when she was ten years old. Later, she signed a contract with a company called "Ai's Entertainment Company" and began to work as a singer. This Ai's Entertainment Company happened to be a subsidiary of Warner Corporation. They packaged Lan Ruoer and pushed her into the Chinese market, which immediately caused a sensation. After a series of publicity, Lan Ruoer gradually became a household name.
As for Fang Hongjin, when he just took over as the vice president of Sanjiang Society, he had frequent contact with Warner Company. Although Sanjiang Society is only a small branch of Skull and Bones Society in Asia, Fang Hongjin's ability is relatively outstanding and he has been appreciated by the superiors. When he was driven out of Jinghai by Zheng Yubai, he ran to the United States in disgrace and somehow got in touch with Lan Ruoer. This time, he and Lan Ruoer appeared in Jinghai together. It would be ridiculous to say that it had nothing to do with Warner Company behind them.
"What do you think?" Leng Tie asked Zheng Yubai.
"It's not clear yet, but since they dare to hypnotize 50,000 people, there must be some major conspiracy." Zheng Yubai said.
Leng Tie nodded: "With 50,000 people, we can accomplish a lot of great things... If they really succeed, Jinghai will probably be in chaos."
"What does Uncle Leng mean?" Zheng Yubai heard something.
"If there is chaos in Jinghai, it will definitely cause huge shocks to the entire country's financial market. Look at this document." Leng Tie took out another document, which listed some recent data, all of which were news about some securities companies and financial companies selling stocks and purchasing valuables such as gold.
"Are you saying that Warner intends to use the riots to make money from the national crisis?" Zheng Yubai was shocked. He was very familiar with this trick. Qi Ye used this excuse to deceive Yao Qian's trust, and ended up deceiving Yao Qian's business empire to collapse.
"Not only that, there have been a lot of small moves in the foreign exchange market recently, and we have been paying attention to it." Leng Tie took out another document, which listed the names of dozens of foreign exchange companies. From the information, it can be seen that the shares of these companies have been gathered in the hands of Warner through various channels.
"If that's the case, Warner Company has already been preparing for this." Zheng Yubai couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. For him, if it was a real fight on the battlefield, he would never be afraid. But Warner Company actually planned a big conspiracy that was exactly the same as the one he had designed for Yao Qian, wanting to make a fortune by destroying Jinghai's economy. This was simply too bold.
At the end of the last century, the financial tycoon was a big shot in the Asian market, and he messed up the financial markets of Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines and other countries, and made a huge profit of more than 5 billion US dollars. His wealth came from many innocent people, and many countries were hit hard, and the pace of economic development was set back by ten years.
Now Warner is using the same old trick again, targeting a larger country. This is a risky gamble. Fortunately, their plan has been discovered. Although we don't know when they plan to launch it, it should still be in time to stop them now.
Leng Tie obviously realized the preciousness of time, and he immediately ordered his subordinates to make arrangements. This news was secretly notified to the top leaders of the country and various relevant departments. The entire state machinery started to move at a high speed and quickly made various countermeasures.
"Yubai, this matter is of great importance. I hope you can help." After giving instructions, Leng Tie's subordinates had already gone to work. Only Leng Tie, Zheng Yubai and Wu Neng were left in the huge conference room.
"Uncle Leng, if there's anything I can help you with, please feel free to ask." Zheng Yubai knew the matter was urgent, and he couldn't refuse, either from a personal or national perspective.
"Fang Hongjin and you have a personal grudge, and he is quite familiar with you. Even if you didn't have direct contact tonight, I think he would be able to guess it was you by the description." Leng Tie analyzed, "So you are in a very dangerous situation now."
Zheng Yubai was stunned, and immediately felt that Leng Tie's words made sense. With Fang Hongjin's cunningness, he would definitely be able to guess that it was him as long as he gave a brief description. If that was the case, would the people at home be in danger
Seeing Zheng Yubai's expression change, Leng Tie said, "If he knew your identity, he would definitely want to kill you to silence you. I want you to be a bait to lure him and the aliens around him out of their hole, and then catch them all in one fell swoop, without giving them the opportunity to initiate the hypnosis command."
Zheng Yubai nodded without hesitation and said, "I'll follow Uncle Leng's arrangements."
"Okay, here's my plan." Leng Tie opened a map, drew a few circles on it with a pen, and explained it to Zheng Yubai in detail.
Lan Ruoer's concert had ended a long time ago, and the once bustling stadium had long since become deserted, with only a dozen workers left cleaning up the debris in the venue.
Lan Ruoer was sitting in the back seat of a nanny car parked on a small street behind the stadium. She asked Fang Hongjin excitedly, "Brother Hongjin, wasn't it successful today? Why are you unhappy?"
The concert was indeed a success, whether from the attendance rate and popularity on the surface or from the hypnosis plan carried out secretly, it was a very successful performance. Lan Ruoer used her superpower "spiritual song" to place hypnosis instructions in the minds of 50,000 people. As long as the signal was sent, these 50,000 people would act according to her instructions.
Once 50,000 people were mobilized at the same time, Jinghai would surely fall into chaos. Once this big city was in chaos, the economy of the entire country would be dragged down. At that time, Warner Company could use this opportunity to make a fortune. Conservative estimates show that their plan would cause the country's economy to stagnate for three years, with losses exceeding 100 billion US dollars.
Lan Ruoer was immersed in the bright future of profit, and had no idea what happened in the middle of the concert. Fang Hongjin absentmindedly perfunctorily said a few words to him, looking out the window, he was waiting for the news from the insider. Once he determined the location of Zheng Yubai, he would kill him without mercy. This time, he felt that the grudge between him and Zheng Yubai should be completely settled.
Another van drove over, with eight people sitting inside. Mudfish, whose leg was broken, could no longer fight, so Fang Hongjin sent someone to take him back to recuperate. As for the Gold and Silver Cufflinks brothers, who were still a little dizzy, they were also in the car. As long as they could still fight, they had no right to be lazy.
The person leading the car was John Matthews, the captain of the alien team sent by Warner this time. At this moment, he closed his eyes slightly, looking calm, but very angry inside.
This time, he was ordered to come to Jinghai to help Fang Hongjin achieve Warner's plan. He was promised a bonus of 5 million US dollars if he succeeded. But now the plan has been interrupted by someone just at the beginning. There is a risk of early leakage at any time, which is equivalent to cutting off his financial resources. Matthews is naturally furious. In addition, his men were injured, which made him even more annoyed. Now he is looking forward to finding the whereabouts of the "murderer" as soon as possible and torturing him to death.
As for the other people in the car, they all had their own thoughts. The reward for this mission was generous, and it was a total amount, which would be shared equally by those who made contributions. Mudfish had broken his leg, which meant that the others could share his share equally, which made everyone even more excited. However, they all knew that if they wanted to get the bonus, they had to kill the person who knew the secret.
"Brother Miller, what does the guy who knocked you out look like?" A short white man with a crescent-shaped birthmark on his face asked the brothers Gold and Silver Cuffs. His name is Kevin Livingston, the youngest in the team. At this moment, he is holding an Apple Nano in his hand, wearing an earphone on one ear, and listening to rock music while shaking his head.
The one with the gold cufflinks was named David Miller, and the one with the silver cufflinks was named Henry Miller. When they heard Livingston's question, they all felt a little embarrassed. Henry Miller said, "That Asian guy is very powerful. His arms are twice as thick as a loach. When he stamps his feet, the whole ground shakes. His kung fu is better than Bruce Lee's. I think even Batman can't beat him."
Henry Miller said this to find an excuse for the bad luck of the two brothers. Only by describing the enemy as stronger can they avoid embarrassment. However, the others in the car obviously did not think so. These aliens were generally more arrogant because they had superpowers than ordinary people. They were very disdainful when they heard Henry Miller's lame lie.
"Henry, I think you are still not clear-headed. When I meet the guy who is more powerful than Bruce Lee and Batman, I will let him see what a superman is." The first person to express disdain was a young brown-skinned Latino sitting in the front row. His name was Fernandez, and he immigrated to the United States from Venezuela. Later, because of his superpowers, he joined Warner and became a member of the Alien Mercenary Group.
"If you don't believe me, forget it. But if you get hurt, don't blame me for not warning you." Henry Miller spread his hands and shrugged.
Some people were not interested in Zheng Yubai's existence, but asked Matthews: "Boss, was the hypnosis successful?" The person asking the question was an Asian youth sitting in the front row in front of Matthews. His name was Jin Feilong. He was a Korean immigrant who grew up in the United States. Although he had an Asian face, he was an authentic American at heart.
"Success." Matthews opened his eyes slightly. "If everything goes well, the day after tomorrow, which is Monday, will be the day for us to take action."
Jin Feilong said happily: "Will the task be completed soon?"
Matthews' eyes flashed coldly: "If you want to complete the mission, you must first kill the person who knows our secret."
Jin Feilong and the other two people sitting next to him looked at each other and said in unison, "Boss, don't worry. As long as we find that guy, he will definitely not be able to live to see tomorrow's sunrise."
As soon as they finished speaking, the lights outside the car came on. Everyone looked out and saw that the nanny car next to them had turned on its lights, as if it was about to set off.
Matthews got out of the car and hurried to the nanny car. The door opened and Fang Hongjin got out and said, "We found it. We'll go right away."
The spring in Jinghai is warm and sunny, but the spring nights seem a bit bleak and windy. A gust of wind swept across the ground, seeming to sway the lights of the street lamps.
The light of the street lamps sprinkled on the street, illuminating the surroundings, but leaving only darkness under the lamps. In the darkness, there was a young man with a lollipop in his mouth. He was wearing a baggy casual outfit and staring straight at a building not far away.
Not long after, a van slowly drove over, with only the low beam on and not driving fast, as if it was afraid of waking up the sleeping people.
The car stopped under a street light, the door opened, and Fang Hongjin got out of the car with a sullen face. As soon as he saw the young man, he said, "Long time no see."
The young man was E. He bit the lollipop in his mouth into pieces with a crunch, raised his chin, and said to the building, "The person is in Building C, 50. There are about six people inside. One of the other five is his father Zheng Jingzhe, one is the gambling king Du Bisheng, and one is the king of thieves Xu Ruoyu. There is also Xu Ruoyu's daughter Xu Jin and a little girl named Yu Luo. Zheng Yubai and Zheng Jingzhe are both very strong, and the other four people don't have much fighting power. Just be careful of the Xu family father and daughter's Qinggong."
This information was obtained by the assassins who had been monitoring Zheng Yubai for 26 months. They made a careful arrangement this time to ensure that the attack would hit the target. The person they sent to monitor was the Maori D whose arm was twisted into a knot by Zheng Yubai on the sea surface of New Zealand. It was because of D's action that Zheng Yubai did not notice it.
Eight people came out of the van, and they were the American aliens led by Matthews. A total of ten people gathered under the street light, listening to E's explanation of the situation and terrain in the building.
After E finished speaking, he continued, "There are nine of you in total, and I have four assassins here. There are thirteen of us, and we must not let Zheng Yubai escape this time." (To be continued)
