“Explanation? What explanation do I need? Are the people of my Fei Gang only allowed to stay here and go nowhere?”
“I’m not here to argue with you today. Do you understand what I mean? Avoiding this will only lead to more trouble.”
Hua Nanhu spoke in a deep voice. Liu Fei’s expression shifted a few times, and he suddenly fell silent.
Hua Nanhu didn’t rush him, just stared at him quietly.
After a long while, Liu Fei slowly said, “I’ve inquired about this. My people were just going to collect a debt. It was just a passing by.”
As Liu Fei spoke, Hua Nanhu kept staring into his eyes. However, they were both old hands. At this moment, even if Hua Nanhu saw only composure, he wouldn’t dare to jump to conclusions.
But he was only here to investigate this time. The Martial Arts Association was not truly responsible for this matter, so Hua Nanhu didn’t dwell on it further. Instead, he changed the subject.
“What about the newly opened commercial street? Do you have any of your people there?”
Liu Fei shook his head directly.
“Alright, then I won’t disturb you today.” Hua Nanhu said and turned to leave. However, before leaving, he glanced at Zhang Si, who was standing next to Liu Fei and had remained silent.
After the three of them left.
“Boss, it’s just a Martial Arts Association, why should we accept his interrogation?”
Liu Fei said slowly, “The Shangjing Martial Arts Association is not as simple as you think. At least on the surface, the Shangjing General Bureau has their backing.”
“As for whether this guy is from the General Bureau, who knows? The situation in Shangjing is so complicated now. It’s better for us to have one less problem than more.”
Zhang Si nodded and said no more.
“By the way, do you want to go take a look?”
“No need, boss, I’m fine.”
“Did you take that special medicine?”
“Mhm.”
Liu Fei’s brows suddenly furrowed slightly, “I think I told you about that medicine. Try not to use it if you can.”
Zhang Si said in a deep voice, “Boss, I think they will come back.”
“So, are you worried that even you can’t defeat him?”
Zhang Si’s expression changed instantly, and he quickly shook his head, “How is that possible? If it wasn’t for you, boss, I guess the people from the Martial Arts Association wouldn’t have been so calm if it were someone else.”
Liu Fei’s expression softened a bit, but he still said in a deep voice, “In any case, try to eat less of that medicine from those people in the future, preferably not at all.”
“Understood, boss.”
“Oh, right. Have you found out about Ah Bao’s situation? Why did the other party suddenly stop coming?”
“We could have found out, but they rescued the person… However, there has been some progress. Our people seem to have found a suspicious figure, who is also a fugitive wanted for many years.”
Liu Fei’s expression paused, “What’s his name?”
“Green Ox. That’s what people in the underworld call him. As for his real name, it seems no one knows.”
Liu Fei nodded, “I’ve heard of this person too. Didn’t he used to operate internationally? Is he here with us now?”
“Yes, our people saw him in the newly opened commercial street. To be precise, he was looking for someone, and our intelligence got wind of it.”
Liu Fei’s eyes narrowed immediately, “Then it seems this matter might really be related to him. Go, bring him back.”
“Then…”
Zhang Si hesitated. Although he had already sent people to intercept Green Ox, Liu Fei’s intention was clearly for him to capture the person himself.
Considering that the reason he used those medicines was to deal with Li Chonglou’s return, and now to have him leave the clubhouse, wouldn’t the medicine be wasted?
Liu Fei glanced at Zhang Si, as if he had seen through his thoughts, and said calmly, “My safety doesn’t require protection, and the transaction is important. The other party will send people over in a few days. If we can’t produce the goods then, it won’t be good.”
“Or, are you also disappointed that I failed this time?”
Zhang Si’s expression changed drastically, and in the end, he could only say helplessly, “I understand, boss. I’ll go capture him now.”
Outside the clubhouse.
Due to the sudden situation discovered by Li Chonglou, Old Third parked the car in a more secluded spot, and Li Chonglou had just finished his call with Long Shi.
It was indeed as he had guessed. Among the elders of the Shangjing Martial Arts Association, Hua Nanhu was the link to the Shangjing General Bureau.
To put it bluntly, Hua Nanhu’s other identity was someone from the Shangjing General Bureau!
Just then, Li Chonglou also noticed Hua Nanhu walking out from inside, and his eyes narrowed.
“Brother Li, how is it?”
After Hua Nanhu and the others left, Yue Hai also got out of the car and ran over to ask.
Li Chonglou remained silent for a long time, and finally made a decision, “Let’s put this matter aside for now and go rest first.”
Li Chonglou made this decision for the sake of Yue Hai and the others.
As someone from the Shangjing General Bureau and also one of the faces of the Martial Arts Association, it was unlikely that Hua Nanhu would be colluding with a small gang.
Therefore, his appearance here might be related to a major case handled by the Shangjing General Bureau.
And if we start from this line of thought, why Lin Qianqian was obstructed here also makes sense.
Therefore, almost as soon as this thought emerged, Li Chonglou could basically confirm the situation.
And this way, if they continued to get entangled with the other party, they would definitely be implicated. To avenge Old Gao, Li Chonglou certainly wouldn’t mind this trouble, but Yue Hai and Chen Peiyue were different.
There was also Old Third. Although he had deliberately kept him far away, he was still someone who acted together. As long as the other party investigated thoroughly, he would definitely not escape implication!
And the decision Li Chonglou made was to resolve this matter himself!
As long as he fused his soul and slightly concealed his identity, Li Chonglou was fully confident that he could fulfill Old Gao’s wish in a short period of time!
However, this kind of thing was naturally more suitable for a dark and windy night. Therefore, Li Chonglou planned to let the others rest first, so that he would have an excuse to sneak out later.
However, Yue Hai, who did not know what he was thinking, said, “Then, about Old Gao’s matter…”
“Old Gao’s revenge will definitely be avenged, don’t worry, it’s just not the time yet.”
“Alright.”
Seeing Li Chonglou say this, Yue Hai could only nod helplessly.
At this moment, Chen Peiyue, who had not said much, suddenly spoke up, “Why don’t we go play tonight?”
Yue Hai said somewhat displeased, “If you want to play, you go play. I’m going back to Yi’an to check on Old Gao.”
Li Chonglou understood Yue Hai’s feelings, but he still persuaded him, “Xiao Hai, Old Gao’s matter will definitely be handled properly. It’s not good for Xiao Yue, a girl, to go play by herself. Why don’t you accompany her?”
