“No, no, it’s just, how long do I have to stay with you?”
“Stay for three days and we’ll see.”
Li Chonglou gave him no room to negotiate and turned to walk towards the back kitchen.
Upon entering, he also noticed Green Bull’s miserable state and couldn’t help but frown, turning to look at Kulinan, who had followed him, and asking, “Did you do this?”
“It wasn’t me,” Kulinan shook his head. “It was Huang Bao’s men, but he wasn’t the main guy, so I chased him away.”
At this moment, Green Bull also spoke, “Brother Chonglou, I was wrong before, I want you to save me again…”
Even he felt a bit embarrassed saying this, but he had no other choice at the moment.
At first, he thought that by possessing information about the special materials, he could escape safely, at least by latching onto someone influential. He hadn’t expected that besides Luo Feng, whom he met first and who was relatively normal, the subsequent groups of people he encountered all started interrogating him.
They didn’t give him any opportunity to negotiate!
And Kulinan was one of the more reasonable people he met, but even he lost to Li Chonglou, so it was clear who he should rely on at this time.
Green Bull, being an old hand, could put aside his pride.
However, Li Chonglou did not answer him immediately.
“Answer me one question first. Why did you stab me in the back? I don’t recall offending you.”
The reason Li Chonglou wanted to capture him was to understand this clearly, as he couldn’t figure out Green Bull’s motive. Or was he acting under someone’s orders? Was someone targeting him?
However, Green Bull’s explanation that followed made his expression falter.
“It was Chen Peiying. It’s because of her that I thought of attacking you.”
Green Bull sighed. Without Li Chonglou needing to ask further, he explained the entire sequence of events.
Only then did Li Chonglou learn that Chen Peiyue had killed someone before they even got to the club. Although Green Bull hadn’t witnessed it firsthand, based on his understanding of Chen Peiyue, the person named Wang Xiaodao was almost certainly killed by Chen Peiyue.
“So that’s how it is.”
Li Chonglou also sighed. In that case, Green Bull’s actions were understandable. However, while the logic was sound, for Li Chonglou, if one chose to attack him, they had to be prepared for the consequences.
It’s just that…
It seemed someone had already taken care of those consequences for him. Li Chonglou said calmly, “We’ll settle the score about you stabbing me in the back later. We can talk about cooperation now, but I want you to tell me first if you actually have this special material.”
Green Bull hadn’t expected Li Chonglou to ask this suddenly and stammered for a moment.
“Damn, you’re not serious, are you spreading false information?”
Green Bull said somewhat lacking in confidence, “It’s not exactly false information. I roughly know where the material is.”
Li Chonglou was speechless.
“Don’t tell me you’re going to say the material is with Chen Peiyue?”
Green Bull’s face immediately changed, but then he quickly shook his head.
“She did take that doll, but she didn’t take it back in the end, which you should be aware of.”
This was the truth, after all, such a large doll, if Chen Peiyue had it with her, they couldn’t have failed to notice.
But even so, Chen Peiyue herself must know the clues. Then why did he agree to cooperate with Green Bull?
Green Bull seemed to have seen through Li Chonglou’s thoughts and quickly said, “That doll is definitely not in its original place now, but I know roughly where it is. Believe me, I will find it!”
“Are you sure?”
Li Chonglou stared into Green Bull’s eyes, and the latter did not flinch.
Only after a long while did Li Chonglou speak again, “I’ll trust you one more time, but you know what the consequences will be if you lie to me again.”
Green Bull’s eyes lit up, and he struggled to get up, but the movement aggravated his injuries, causing him to grimace in pain.
Li Chonglou looked at the half-dead Green Bull. The reason he could still speak now was like a final burst of energy before death. His complexion was terribly weak.
In fact, this guy was quite unlucky. When Li Chonglou saved him, he was already injured. He had only received emergency treatment at the hospital for one night. He probably hadn’t even been transferred from the emergency room to a regular ward before he ran out himself.
Now, he had been abused again. Honestly, Li Chonglou had to admire Green Bull’s resilience in his heart.
The name was truly fitting.
“Don’t move yet, I’ll treat you.”
After all, he was his cooperative partner, Li Chonglou bent down and used his unsealed internal energy to help Green Bull sort out his meridian injuries. This also made him realize that Green Bull’s injuries were more severe than he had imagined.
Several acupoints were damaged, not to mention internal injuries and internal bleeding.
“I have to say, it’s a miracle you’re still alive.”
Li Chonglou sighed and after providing some basic treatment, he had Ah Niu carry him.
At this point, Green Bull seemed to have passed his final burst of energy and had fallen into a deep coma.
Fortunately, he was still breathing. Ah Niu could only place his hope on Li Chonglou.
“Um, where are we going?”
Li Chonglou thought for a moment and turned to look at Kulinan.
“Can you read a phone map?”
“Yes.”
Li Chonglou got straight to the point, took out his phone, and opened the nearby map. Although the signal was shielded, the map was still visible.
After marking the location near the airport, Li Chonglou told Kulinan the route from the airport to Green Bull’s hideout.
“Have you memorized it all?”
Kulinan nodded, “I’ve got it.”
“Good, go there and help me open the secret passage door. I’ll take the two of them out through the secret passage.”
Then, he let Kulinan leave first, while he took the two of them towards the secret passage.
Both Green Bull and Ah Niu were very familiar with the airport layout and naturally knew the location of the restrooms like the back of their hands.
Although they didn’t know who leaked the information about the secret passage in the restroom, most people knew about it. However, they had also gone to the end of the passage and found it to be a sealed dead end, so they didn’t think much of it.
Little did they know that the reason it was a sealed dead end was because Li Chonglou had used large stones and various debris to block it from above. In that narrow space, let alone them, even he himself couldn’t push it open.
Therefore, Li Chonglou guessed that no one would expect them to leave from there.
However, Li Chonglou hadn’t expected that someone would be guarding the secret passage from within.
As he jumped into the secret passage with Ah Niu and the other, a large hand suddenly grabbed towards his neck.
The opponent was clearly underestimating him and didn’t use his full strength, so Li Chonglou slapped the hand away.
“Yo, a big fish?”
