Su Fan looked at the people with real guns and live ammunition around him and gave up the idea of a forced breakout.
"Then I'll trouble you, Brother Li," Su Fan said with a smile.
Only by making the other party relax their vigilance could Su Fan have a chance to rescue Su Yutong.
"Hahaha, good brother!" Li Bidi put his arm around Su Fan's shoulder and laughed heartily.
Su Fan frowned slightly.
Li Bidi had a worldly air about him. Such people might be chatting and laughing with you one moment and slit your throat the next.
"I'll take you to see our place. You must have heard of the Vali Group, right?" Li Bidi chatted enthusiastically with Su Fan in the car.
"I've heard a little."
"Good, then I'll show you the splendor of Vali!" Li Bidi said with pride in his eyes when he spoke of the Vali Group.
Su Fan, however, was a bit uninterested. He was here to rescue Su Yutong, but there was no opportunity at the moment.
The car drove for a long time, heading north. Su Fan traveled for over an hour before reaching his destination.
What appeared before Su Fan was a massive hotel, nestled against a deep mountain. It was over a dozen stories high and stretched a kilometer wide. In front of the hotel were gardens and a plaza, where armed personnel patrolled with guns.
The Vali Grand Hotel offered dozens of entertainment options, including accommodation, dining, a casino, and recreation. This was the headquarters of the Vali Group, and most of the guests were wealthy and influential elites from various countries.
While it appeared glamorous on the surface, information leaked online revealed unspeakable dirty dealings beneath this dazzling facade.
"You stay here first. Once you help me contact the boss in South Africa, I'll hand over your sister-in-law and the money with both hands," Li Bidi said with a smile.
Now that he was on his own turf, he wasn't afraid of what Su Fan could do.
His subordinates had said Su Fan was a strong fighter, but what use was strength against real guns?
Su Fan was helplessly arranged to stay by Li Bidi. Su Fan surveyed the room and felt eyes watching him; there were surveillance cameras in the room.
Su Fan's first priority was to find Su Yutong's location; otherwise, rescuing her would be difficult.
Su Fan wanted to go out and look around.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Su. Young Master Li instructed that you can tell us if you need anything, and we will do our best to satisfy it. You cannot go out alone for now. Please forgive us," the two guards outside politely stopped Su Fan.
Now he couldn't even get out. As for forcing his way out?
Su Fan glanced at the bulging waistbands of the guards and immediately dismissed the idea. He could only wait.
Li Bidi needed him to contact the diamond mine owner, so he wouldn't keep him waiting for too long, nor would he do anything to Su Yutong.
At least not now.
Su Fan could only wait for Li Bidi to come find him. He probably wouldn't have to wait long.
The allure of the South African diamond mine was still significant.
As expected, Su Fan didn't have to wait long. Li Bidi wanted to host Su Fan for dinner that evening.
"Brother Su, it's just a simple meal. Please don't stand on ceremony," Li Bidi led Su Fan to the first-floor restaurant. Only the two of them sat at the large dining table, laden with delicacies.
Abalone and shark fin were secondary. The main attractions were bear paws, tiger penises, and deer antlers, which were absolutely impossible to get in China. And he called this a simple meal?
"Brother Su, when can you introduce me to the diamond mine owner?" Li Bidi asked Su Fan.
"This requires me to go to South Africa personally. Why don't you come with me, Brother Li? You can see the diamond mine scene. I'm afraid you haven't seen raw diamond ore before, Young Master Li?"
"Forget about going to South Africa. Why don't you go yourself, Brother Su? I'll wait here for good news," Li Bidi wasn't foolish. He was the local boss here, but once he went to South Africa, things would be different. Letting Su Fan take the risk was much better than going himself.
"I can go alone, but I want to see my friend. I need to confirm she is safe," Su Fan made his demand. Without seeing Su Yutong, how could he rescue her?
"Certainly. After dinner, I'll take you to see her," Li Bidi readily agreed. It was just a meeting.
"Let's go now. I'm done eating," Su Fan hadn't actually eaten anything. Firstly, he had no appetite, and secondly, he feared Li Bidi might have tampered with the food.
"Alright, follow me," Li Bidi had no choice but to take Su Fan to see Su Yutong first.
Li Bidi didn't lie to him and didn't trouble Su Yutong. She was well-fed and housed in a presidential suite, but she was not allowed to leave the room.
"Su Fan!"
Upon seeing Su Fan, Su Yutong immediately rushed over, her face filled with lingering fear.
"It's alright now," Su Fan gently patted Su Yutong's back, comforting her.
Li Bidi, being perceptive, had his subordinates retreat.
"I'll wait for you outside. Come find me when you're done," Li Bidi said, leaving the presidential suite with a knowing look.
Li Bidi clearly misunderstood the relationship between Su Fan and Su Yutong, but this provided Su Fan with an opportunity.
"Yutong, I'll find a way to get you out of here. But before that, I need to sleep," Su Fan said solemnly.
"Ah?" Su Yutong's face turned red.
Su Fan was still thinking about that at this moment, which was so embarrassing.
"Pervert!" Su Yutong whispered with her head down.
"What?"
"You... you be quiet, I... I'm a little scared," Su Yutong murmured softly. Since she didn't know if they could escape, she might as well let Su Fan have his way!
"Okay, I'll sleep now," Su Fan said and lay down on the bed, closing his eyes.
Su Yutong stared dumbfounded at Su Fan, who had fallen asleep so quickly.
"Hmph!" Su Yutong snorted in disappointment.
In the game, Su Fan immediately opened his backpack to check for any items that could help them escape.
Those equipment could enhance Su Fan's strength, but even the strongest fists couldn't fend off many attackers. Su Fan directly passed on them. Materials were useless, so he also passed. Only the items from the mall could be used.
Experience potions were useless. Flying Talisman? Guiding Bee?
Only these two items caught Su Fan's attention. Both were teleportation items, one for returning to complete a quest and the other for going to a quest location.
Suddenly, Su Fan had an idea. He remembered another item in the mall: the Bagua Token!
Su Fan eagerly opened the mall interface and found the Bagua Token.
Bagua Token
Can teleport to fixed locations and coordinates. 20/20 uses.
This item could directly teleport to several fixed locations, such as Tianxin City and Qingfeng Village, and to important places like sect headquarters when new maps were unlocked.
Moreover, it could store three coordinates, allowing for teleportation to those points at any time. One item could be used 20 times.
He wondered what the effect of this item would be if brought into reality.
Su Fan was somewhat excited. Perhaps this Bagua Token could really help Su Fan and Su Yutong escape from here.
Su Fan immediately bought a Bagua Token and put it in his backpack. Item-type items could not be stacked; only one could be taken out at a time.
Su Fan lay down again and returned to reality.
In reality, Su Fan's eyes suddenly snapped open.
Su Yutong, who was lying on his face looking at him, was startled.
"You... how did you wake up?" Su Yutong's face turned red and she appeared nervous, as if caught doing something wrong.
