"Whether you've heard of it or not is unimportant. What matters is…"

Understanding Li Chenzhou's meaning, Grey Bear looked at Wang Tiejian, then turned to Wu Zhiqun:

"You should still remember what I said before, right? Those with ability can do as they please, so... do you think I'm capable now?"

Hearing Grey Bear's words, Wu Zhiqun's face turned pale. When he said those words, he never imagined they would be thrown back at him so quickly.

And, most critically, he didn't dare refute, because... he was afraid Grey Bear would punch him!

What to do?

Wu Zhiqun looked at Wang Tiejian again, who in turn looked at Grey Bear, asking in a trembling voice:

"What… what do you want?"

"Where is Regiment Commander Liu? I want to see him appear before me unharmed!"

Grey Bear said:

"I'll give you five minutes. If Regiment Commander Liu doesn't appear after five minutes, or if he's been harmed in any way, everyone here will die!"

They still want Liu Jinshan?

Hearing Grey Bear's demand, a glimmer of hope arose in Wang Tiejian's heart. Since they valued Liu Jinshan so much, perhaps they could use him to negotiate some benefits for themselves?

With that thought, he didn't even look at Wu Zhiqun, directly ordering his soldiers:

"Quick! Bring the regiment commander… invite him over!"

As he spoke, he winked at the soldiers!

The soldiers saw Wang Tiejian's signal, nodded slightly, and immediately led a team out. Li Chenzhou and the others ignored them, knowing that Wu Zhiqun and Wang Tiejian were here, so they wouldn't dare to try anything.

Seeing that Wang Tiejian didn't even bother consulting him, taking matters into his own hands, Wu Zhiqun glared at him fiercely, secretly regretting his decision.

He had some lackeys here, all former high-ranking officials from Qi City before the apocalypse, who still clustered around Wu Zhiqun just like they did before.

If it weren't for these people, Wang Tiejian wouldn't have defected so easily and willingly helped Wu Zhiqun.

This time, because Wu Zhiqun wasn't sure about the situation in Qing City, he wanted to get the news himself first, and then decide how to tell his lackeys. Furthermore, since imprisoning Liu Jinshan, Wang Tiejian had been acting very loyal, so he didn't bring those guys along.

But he hadn't expected that without those guys around, and with the other side displaying such formidable power, Wang Tiejian would defect again.

"Wang Tiejian, you bastard, you really are a weathervane! You lean towards whoever's stronger!"

Wu Zhiqun cursed at Wang Tiejian, but Wang Tiejian pretended not to hear, secretly sizing up Li Chenzhou.

Although Grey Bear had been in control since they arrived, with Li Chenzhou and the others not saying a word, Wang Tiejian was perceptive enough to see from Grey Bear's subconscious actions that Li Chenzhou was the one truly in charge among the four.

Now, Wang Tiejian wasn't thinking about power or anything like that. He just wanted to use Liu Jinshan to buy himself a chance to live.

From Li Chenzhou's eyes, he saw a killing intent, and it was directed at them.

Wang Tiejian didn't know why Li Chenzhou had developed a killing intent towards them. Was it because they had imprisoned Liu Jinshan?

Although they had locked Liu Jinshan up, because his soldiers were originally under Liu Jinshan's command, and because many of Liu Jinshan's soldiers were imprisoned with him, Liu Jinshan hadn't been beaten or scolded.

Especially the soldiers guarding them, although they were Wang Tiejian's confidants, they were still part of the defense regiment. Liu Jinshan's influence still lingered, and they didn't even have the courage to meet his gaze, let alone torture him.

Even Liu Jinshan's food was quite good, at least edible, with meat and canned goods. It could be said that, aside from the lack of freedom, Liu Jinshan's life was not bad, at least a hundred times better than the people in the commercial district!

So, Wang Tiejian thought that as long as Liu Jinshan was brought in and seen to be safe, he should at least be able to survive.

Their killing intent most likely stemmed from his betrayal of Liu Jinshan, but Wang Tiejian understood Liu Jinshan. As long as he came and he quickly cried and repented, and told some stories from the past, Liu Jinshan would definitely forgive him.

At that point, with the person involved no longer caring, those who came to rescue him would naturally not insist on killing him. Moreover, he could push all the blame onto Wu Zhiqun. As for whether Wu Zhiqun would be killed to vent their anger, that was none of his business.

Wu Zhiqun was also thinking, after all, he had been a governor for many years and had some skills, especially in observing words and expressions and understanding other people's psychology. Politicians usually mastered this art to perfection!

He also saw the killing intent in Grey Bear and Li Chenzhou's eyes, and, unlike Wang Tiejian, he could tell that this killing intent didn't come from external forces, but that Li Chenzhou and Grey Bear wanted to kill him.

Wu Zhiqun also didn't know why, because he was sure he had never met these people. But thinking about how many common people he had offended during his years as governor, perhaps one of these two had been ruined and their family destroyed by him.

So, Wu Zhiqun didn't dwell on the source, just thinking about how he could escape...

He wouldn't pin his hopes on Liu Jinshan. He knew Liu Jinshan's character. If Liu Jinshan had the authority, even if he was released because of his status, he wouldn't want to kill him. He might even stop the others from killing him.

That's right, Liu Jinshan was that kind of pedantic soldier!

But Wu Zhiqun knew that this was useless. Liu Jinshan definitely couldn't protect him, so he had to think of another way!

As time passed, they finally saw the soldiers who had gone to release Liu Jinshan through the window, and behind Liu Jinshan, a large group of soldiers followed.

Since he was being released, Liu Jinshan would certainly not abandon his brothers, and those who released him didn't dare to stop him. So, the imprisoned soldiers and Liu Jinshan were released together.

Seeing so many people, Wu Zhiqun's face changed instantly. Although he hadn't come up with a good plan yet, he knew he couldn't wait any longer, because he felt that the young man behind Grey Bear seemed about to make a move against him...

"Guards! Protect me!!!"

So, a desperate Wu Zhiqun finally roared loudly, and hearing his voice, Wang Tiejian's face changed. He finally realized that he had overlooked something.

And as Wu Zhiqun shouted, the doors of the lounge suddenly opened, and countless soldiers holding guns rushed in, pointing their weapons at Li Chenzhou and the others...
