The two faced off at the alley for a long time. Finally, the sailor snorted and put away his pistol.
"We are really flattered."
Ye Chen shrugged slightly, and then picked up the gun at his feet.
"How are you going to explain to the captain about your brother?"
"No explanation."
Ye Chen came to the sailor's side and spoke calmly.
"No explanation?
!”
The sailor looked at the man next to him in surprise.
"Since he has chosen another path, his life and death from now on has nothing to do with us."
"If he is lucky and can come back alive, then he will still be our brother."
"but now……"
Ye Chen turned his head and looked at the sailor with a wry smile.
"It's better if we treat him as dead."
The sailor stared at Ye Chen, stared for a long time and then slowly spoke.
"Now I begin to understand why the captain wanted you, a Chinese, to join his team."
"Boy, you are indeed quite good."
Ye Chen's smile remained calm.
"We'd better keep on our way. If we delay the time of receiving the goods from the customer, neither of us can bear the responsibility."
The sailor nodded, and then stepped into another deep alley that was completely different from Zhao Hailong.
…
On the other side, Zhao Hailong was immediately wary of the dark alley.
He pulled out the pistol from his waist so that he could be prepared for any emergencies.
"Help……"
The calls for help were getting closer and closer, and their voices became weaker and weaker.
Zhao Hailong clenched the handle of the gun in his hand and moved forward.
Until a black shadow curled up on the ground appeared in his sight.
Without any time to think, he quickened his pace and walked towards the group of figures.
"boom!"
But before he reached the group of figures, he suddenly felt a sharp pain on the back of his head.
"It's a trap!"
When this idea first appeared in his mind, Zhao Hailong endured the severe pain and turned around to shoot at the black shadow attacking him from behind.
But at that moment, his legs were tripped by someone, and he fell backwards according to the inertia.
"clang!"
He could only feel his arm being hit hard by something blunt.
His entire arm suddenly lost consciousness, and the pistol he originally held in his hand was naturally thrown into the air.
Boss Ye is right, this place is indeed a trap...
This was the last thing Zhao Hailong thought of before he fell to the ground and lost consciousness.
…
Ye Chen, who was walking slowly in the dark alley following the sailor, stopped as if he suddenly sensed something.
"What's wrong?"
The sailor noticed something strange about him, stopped and asked him.
"No……"
Zhao Hailong's departure made Ye Chen's inner uneasiness even stronger.
There always seemed to be a lingering shadow lingering in his mind.
"Regarding the person you are connecting with this time, can you tell me something about him?"
Ye Chen suddenly asked.
"You want to know what this does?"
The sailor looked at Ye Chen and said doubtfully.
"Did our mercenary group take the initiative to get the goods in previous transactions?"
Seeing that the sailor still seemed wary of him, he had no choice but to ask in another way.
"No……"
Seeing the sailor's denial, Ye Chen became increasingly uneasy.
"In the past, both parties agreed on a location, paid the money and delivered the goods..."
"It's just that this time the other party said that the policemen in this place have started to meddle in other people's business."
"They didn't want to get into any extra trouble, so they asked us to send a few people to get the goods..."
As soon as the sailor finished speaking, he seemed to realize something was wrong, and his expression gradually turned gloomy.
"You mean...the other party set a trap for us?"
Ye Chen shook his head.
"We're not sure, but to be honest, this kind of deal actually requires us to take the initiative to get the goods from the other party's territory."
"It's a bit unnatural, and what happened at the alley..."
Ye Chen's words silenced the sailor.
"We are not saying that the other side must not have good intentions, but we still suggest that it would be better if we bring a few more brothers over here..."
Sailor Ye Chen looked ugly and quickly spoke to comfort him.
"What you said makes sense..."
The sailor nodded, and then wanted to take Ye Chen out of the alley.
"Where do you two want to go?"
But at this moment, several black shadows suddenly flashed out from both sides of the dark alley, and in the blink of an eye they surrounded Ye Chen.
If you look closely, you can see that these people have various weapons in their hands, and some even hold rifles.
Ye Chen and the sailor stood with their backs facing the crowd.
"Our boss has been waiting for you two for a long time."
"how?
Wouldn’t it be too disappointing to leave in a hurry before we’ve even met?”
The first young man, who was holding a baseball bat and chewing gum, swaggered up to the sailor.
He pointed his stick at the sailor and winked at the people around him.
A hole suddenly appeared in the human wall behind him.
It is still a bottomless dark alley.
"You two, please!"
"We've been tricked!"
The sailor suddenly said this in Ye Chen's ear.
Ye Chen nodded slightly, then smiled bitterly.
"Well, it seems so..."
Helplessly, under such coercion, Ye Chen and the two had no choice but to follow the group of local gangsters who looked like gangsters in front of them and walked deeper into the dark alley.
"Now can you tell me who the guy we are going to face this time is?"
After all the weapons on his body were confiscated, Ye Chen looked at the sailor and asked helplessly.
"That guy is not a big shot..."
The sailor looked at the back of the gangster in front of him, with a bit of disdain on his face.
"At least in this town where drug lords are everywhere, that guy is not a big shot."
"Even so, to be able to get such a piece of land that belongs to him, that guy is definitely not an ordinary person."
The sailor turned to look at Ye Chen, and his tone became cheerful for the first time.
"Guess, what did that guy rely on to get his current status?"
Ye Chen lowered his head and thought for a while, then looked at the gangsters with fierce faces following him.
"Because this guy knows how to win people's hearts?"
But the sailor just shook his head, and then a mocking smile appeared on his lips.
"Because this guy is so ruthless!"
The sailor raised his chin towards the back of the leading gangster.
"The last time we came to trade, the leader of his gang was not this guy."
"That guy is extremely moody. For him, he doesn't even know how many words make up the word 'trust'."
"To put it bluntly, that's why he was able to achieve his current status."
"It's just because he can betray anyone with peace of mind, and then step on their corpses to climb up step by step!"
