Before the onlookers could even stick their heads in, a kettle flew out, startling them.
"If you don't want to die, don't come in!"
Hearing Li Chonglou's fierce voice, the few people shivered and quickly returned to their rooms, locking their doors!
However, some still chose to call the police.
Li Chonglou also knew that time was running out and dealt a ruthless hand to the man in front of him.
His cultivation realm was gone, but his experience remained. There was probably no one in this world who knew human acupoints better than him.
Li Chonglou was fully aware of which acupoints were related to the stomach, which ones to the nerves, and so on!
After targeting several of the most painful acupoints and manipulating them, the bespectacled man could no longer endure it and was on the verge of a breakdown.
"I'll talk, I'll talk!"
At the same time, Ah Dong and the other pursued the burly man.
After all, they were from the Green Gang, and they were also young and strong. The burly man couldn't outrun the two of them.
He thought he could escape by jumping from the third floor, but he never expected the two to follow him down without even blinking!
In an alley, the burly man was pinned against the wall by the two, one on each side.
"Still want to run? Don't you know who I am!"
Ah Dong, who had been provoked by Li Chonglou a lot these past two days, punched the burly man's back, causing him to grunt and his resistance to weaken instantly.
Meanwhile, Ah Hai skillfully grabbed the burly man's mouth.
"Without drugs, they're likely not their fanatical followers."
"Let's go, we'll interrogate him back at the hotel."
The two pressed the burly man back to the hotel. Just as they reached the entrance, they saw Li Chonglou coming down from upstairs.
He was alone.
"Why are you still holding him? Don't tell me you haven't gotten the information yet?"
"Huh?"
Li Chonglou shook his head and quickly led the three away.
Just as they left, the police arrived.
If it had only been an assault case, they would have at most returned for an investigation. But upon hearing that someone had also been kidnapped, the situation changed completely!
The police immediately began their pursuit.
This was exactly what Li Chonglou was worried about. However, the other two likely intended to interrogate him together upon his return, so no one could be blamed.
After arriving at a safe location, Li Chonglou took action directly.
The burly man thought the other two had been rough enough, but he never expected someone to break his limbs upon arrival. He immediately gave up resisting.
"Stop, stop, I'll talk!"
Li Chonglou calmly released his grip, while the two beside him swallowed hard.
Exchanging glances, they wondered if this guy had been in this line of work before.
As the burly man began to talk, the three of them learned that he was an accomplice hired by the killer to eliminate any loose ends.
In fact, Li Chonglou already had the answer. After all, the bespectacled man had already revealed his background – he was sent by the Jiang family to silence them.
However, because this guy was more cautious and careful, he had let the burly man make the first move.
But whether it was the Jiang family or the killer's side, Li Chonglou wasn't interested in information about their factions. He wanted news about the antique.
From the bespectacled man, he had learned that the item had not been recovered, which meant it should still be in the killer's hands.
However, the burly man didn't know the killer's location, only mentioning a place name.
"He only told me to go to Feng Town to collect my reward after completing the mission. He didn't mention anything else, truly."
Feng Town?
Li Chonglou looked at Ah Dong and the other, who both shook their heads.
As the burly man spoke, Li Chonglou had also been checking his pulse. The man wasn't lying. In the end, he could only knock him unconscious with a hand chop.
At the same time, he pressed several acupoints on him fiercely.
"What are you doing?"
"These are sleeping acupoints. He won't wake up for at least a day or two."
The same was done to the other bespectacled man. Based on the current clues, two days was enough time.
"There are such methods?"
The two looked somewhat surprised.
Even though they were from the underworld and were accustomed to all sorts of strange things, this was the first time they had heard of such a thing.
For a moment, Li Chonglou's figure became even more shrouded in mystery in their eyes.
"Have your people investigate this Feng Town."
Li Chonglou directly handed the task to the two.
Although the Green Gang's main influence was in Shangjing, they still had access to some unofficial news from other places. After all, they had numerous informants, and various complex information could be traced back to them.
It didn't take long. About half an hour later, Ah Dong received information about Feng Town.
This included its geographical location and some history. What immediately piqued Li Chonglou's interest was that Feng Town boasted a private ancient workshop that was renowned in the antique trading circle!
Simply put, it was a place where antiques could be traded, and its reputation was even more reliable than large institutions.
However, because it was a private workshop, it was not too particular about the origin of the goods, making it favored by people from the underworld.
The intelligence also mentioned that the town's prosperity was largely due to the existence of this private workshop.
After reading the information, Li Chonglou immediately made a decision.
"Let's go!"
The two also realized that this private place for trading antiques could very well be the killer's hideout. Without hesitation, they packed lightly and immediately set off.
Well, "packed lightly" here meant thoroughly robbing the burly man of his belongings.
On the way, Li Chonglou couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid the police will classify this as a crime?"
They had heard the police sirens. Although the two had been injured by Li Chonglou's methods, they were generally intact. As long as they found the person, the police would at most classify it as an assault case.
But taking their money changed the nature of the incident.
However, Ah Dong immediately rolled his eyes, "What else can we do? You're not willing to spend a single cent. Where else would I get the money for travel if I don't rob?"
Li Chonglou had made them pay for everything along the way. The moment they hesitated, he would pretend to pick up his phone to make a call, which greatly annoyed them.
Listening to Ah Dong's complaints, Li Chonglou chuckled, "How much money has this cost? You've been in the Green Gang for so long, you can't possibly not have this little bit of money, can you?"
They actually didn't have it!
However, they were too embarrassed to admit it directly, considering it was a matter of masculine pride.
By the time the three arrived at Feng Town, it was nearly ten o'clock in the evening.
To their surprise, even though this small town was over a hundred kilometers away from Shangjing, it was still brightly lit at this hour.
The streets, only a few meters wide, were bustling with people.
Moreover, the three noticed that most of the people walking around were fashionably dressed, unlike the residents of small towns they had imagined, who would be different from those in first and second-tier cities.
"How come I feel like these people are richer than me?"
"Please remove the 'I feel.' See that Armani? The total value of everything I'm wearing doesn't even add up to the cost of one of his clothes!"
