As soon as Tang Qian entered the "different space", he was immediately confused!
The task cards have always been white. When did the color change?
Tang Qian approached the task card with some anxiety. As soon as he touched it, a stream of information naturally poured into his mind.
Rescue Matt Barnes from the room in front of you. If you succeed, you will be rewarded with an off-site card. If you fail, all ability cards will be deducted.
w?what?
Just rescuing Matt Barnes, that wildcard is a piece of shit?
However, in order to keep his ability cards, Tang Qian didn't have much choice.
Because if he wants to stay in the NBA, these ability cards are absolutely indispensable!
Who told the Lakers to sign another "ten-day short contract" for him?
But the so-called sunshine always comes after the storm. According to the regulations of the NBA, a person can only sign a maximum of two "ten-day short contracts" in a season. After two contracts, if the team is still willing to renew the contract, it must transfer the player's entire contract.
The contract is renewed throughout the season. This is also a disguised protection of the rights and interests of the "ten-day players" by the league.
Therefore, as long as Tang Qian stays up for another ten days, he can officially join the Los Angeles Lakers.
Therefore, these ability cards are extremely important to Tang Qian and are indispensable.
Ping ping ping pong~
There were sounds of things being thrown inside the house. It was obvious that something had happened inside.
We can’t delay any longer! We must act immediately!
Before leaving, Tang Qian remembered Ci Shiping's words:
A gangster who plays basketball!
It turns out...this is all true...
But now is not the time to think about these things, it’s business to think about how to save people first!
This house is an independent house, so it has many rooms. After Tang Qian memorized its general structure from the outside, he started to act.
The first goal is to kill the Latino man guarding the door.
To be honest, since Tang Qian had not received training in this area, he was very nervous when he moved.
NND! In those American blockbusters, aren’t there even 70- or 80-year-olds sneaking in without being nervous?
Sure enough, movies are all lies!
Whoever is not nervous about doing this for the first time, I really want to fall in love with him!
But he was nervous, and Tang Qian had to do what he had to do.
Fortunately, the Latino man was not too wary, so Tang Qian, the "newbie", quietly approached.
rustle ~ rustle ~
Tang Qian was slowly sneaking through the bushes. The sound of branches and leaves scraping against his clothes made him even more nervous.
He stared at the Latino man, silently calculating the distance in his mind:
10 meters...8 meters...6 meters...
When the distance between the two was less than 3 meters, Tang Qian stopped, because at this time the Latino man suddenly turned around!
His back was turned to Tang Qian!
Damn it! What a great opportunity!!!
If you don’t take action now, when will you wait???
superior!!!
Oh no!
Like a cheetah in the night, Tang Qian jumped out of the bushes with a kick of his feet.
And the target is the Latino man outside the door!
What?
When the Latino man heard the noise, he immediately turned around. He was actually alert, but he had no choice but to slow down Tang Qian and slap him. With a "pop", the former was thrown to the ground by Tang Qian.
"Who are you? You..." Before the Latino man could finish asking, Tang Qian punched him.
Bang~
"Someone, come..."
Bang~
He was only halfway through shouting when Tang Qian punched him unconscious!
You must know that Tang Qian's current bench press is more than 350 pounds. How can an ordinary person withstand one punch? So after just two punches, the Latino man at the door fainted.
This is because this is Tang Qian's first time and he has little experience. Next time, if he controls his strength, he can knock out the opponent with one punch.
The sound of collisions in the house became more intense. After Tang Qian looked around, he opened the door of the independent house.
As soon as I entered the house, neither late nor early, I met a "stranger".
When this "stranger" saw Tang Qian, he was stunned for a moment and said, "Who are you? Why are you here..."
Tang Qian didn't dare to talk nonsense with him, so he struck first and used his long wingspan to hit this "stranger" in the face with a punch.
Boom.
Knocked to the ground with one punch.
Tang Qian took a breath and continued moving forward.
The independent houses in the United States all have unique structures and are by no means the same domestic housing structures, so Tang Qian had to be careful to avoid walking directly into the "minefield".
With the experience he just had, Tang Qian became more cautious in his actions. Before opening the door, he would check carefully to avoid coming face to face with the enemy.
After walking through the entrance hall, a half-open wooden door appeared in front of Tang Qian, and some sounds could be heard coming from inside.
"Hey, Andy, the noise inside is getting louder and louder. Do you think we should go and help?" This is a big white man, over 6 feet 6 inches tall, with a big body and a round waist. At this moment, he is holding a stick in his hand.
A thick iron rod.
"Brie, have you forgotten RD's order? If Matt doesn't run out, our mission is to stay here and never leave! Otherwise, if RD finds out, we will be punished by the gang!" This man
He is also a white man, slightly shorter than Andy, but much stronger. From a distance, he looks like a "big white bear"!
"Hey, why did Matt betray us? Didn't he have a close relationship with RD before? Why did he betray us?" asked the white man named Bree.
"Who are you asking me? From what RD said, Matt split with our Southsiders because he became more and more greedy! You know, out of nearly 1.5 million US dollars in revenue last year, Matt alone took away 50
Wan, RD had to contribute his own money to support his brothers!"
"So that's it!" Brie nodded.
"It's not just that." Andy, a white man, said: "Do you know why you asked Matt to come back this time?"
"Why?"
"Because RD received a tip from below, saying that Matt is going to ask for $1 million this time. If RD doesn't give it, he will go to the police station to report us Southsiders! ***, what a black-hearted bastard!!!
" Andy spat and cursed loudly.
"11 million U.S. dollars? Don't we have to pay it back ourselves? Matt is also an NBA player and his salary is no less than a million dollars a year. Why do he still ask for it from us? I really don't understand! When I contacted Matt before,
I always thought he was pretty good!"
"Hey, how did I know that? Maybe that's what it means to know people but not their hearts! Matt is no longer the Matt he used to be. He relies on the fact that he doesn't have gang tattoos on his back, so his appetite is getting bigger and bigger now.
There’s nothing RD can do, right?”
"Oh, I really don't want to face Matt. Last year, he helped me pay a bill worth 10,000 US dollars."
"Hey, Brie, you can't be confused at this time! You don't understand RD's rules. If you still want to hang out in Southsiders, don't do stupid things! I have to remind you!"
"Oh, I know, I won't disobey RD's order."
What should I do? Listen to the sound, they are on the second floor.
But now, how to touch it?
Tang Qian looked at the living room and felt a little confused.
Because it seems that this living room is the only way to the second floor, which means that if he wants to go up and take away Matt Barnes, then he must pass through this living room!
He also has to deal with the two people in the living room!
Tang Qian was not too scared to deal with two people. The problem was that he didn't know how many people were in this room!
5? 10? Or 20?
Tang Qian doesn't think he is a superman who wears underwear outside, so if there are too many enemies, he can only give up and be overwhelmed. After all, these people are not good at a glance! Maybe they are killing people and stealing goods.
, it’s not like I’ve never done it before!
Just as Tang Qianmao was thinking hard outside the door, a voice suddenly came from the second floor: "Andy, come here and lend a hand and help me carry him down."
Almost ten seconds later, four strong men escorted a tall black man down.
And who is this tall black man if not Matt Barnes?
But now, he looks a little miserable.
Not to mention his right eye was completely purple, and his left arm was also twisted in a weird arc. It was obvious that Barnes's arm was dislocated. His mouth was sealed with tape, and his three legs were tightly
The layer was so deep that he could no longer utter a complete word except for humming. However, it could be seen from his eyes that at this moment, he was burning with anger and extremely angry.
"Okay, Matt, stop struggling. Who made you so greedy that you want to go against our entire Southsiders? RD said that he will call all the members back tomorrow and let them see with their own eyes what you, a traitor, are like.
Damn it. So, Matt, you'd better save some energy, this is not an NBA arena, and no referee will save you!" The person speaking was a person of color who is not black, white, or yellow. For
Tang Qian's first impression of people with this skin color was that they were Mexicans.
Mexicans, to put it nicely, are called a melting pot of nations; to put it worse, they are a collection of mixed races. When a person walks out of Mexico, you cannot accurately judge his race and skin color, because the blood is so mixed.
It’s too complicated. Moreover, this country is a big drug country, with mafia gangs and pornographic corruption rampant. Even the national government can’t suppress their rampantness. To tell a joke, in Mexico, big drug lords have established themselves.
It has a regular force of more than 100,000 people, but what about the Mexican government army? The three armies combined are only 130,000 people, and this number also includes logistics and civilian personnel to reach this number. So in other words, the big drug lord
They are fully capable of fighting head-on with the national army. In this case, 30% of a country's territory is owned by drugs and gangsters, which is no longer a joke.
It seems that this matter is really troublesome!
"Okay, let's keep him here." The man who looked like a Mexican said.
"Juan, is this okay? I'm worried..."
"What's there to worry about?" The man named Juan glanced at him and said, "Look at his hands and feet. I, Uncle Juan, have tied them myself. They are so strong that even a bull in heat can't even touch them."
You broke him free, do you think he is a bull?" After saying that, Juan raised his head and laughed.
"But……"
"But what the hell!!! Miguel, you are good at everything, but you are just too timid~ After so many years, you haven't made any progress at all, and you are still exactly the same as you were at the beginning!" Juan said while giving instructions: "Besides,
Just one night, what could happen?"
"Juan, at least put a guard in the room so that nothing goes wrong."
"Oh, okay, okay, you are such a troublesome guy!" Juan complained, then ordered a black man and walked in.
"Is this going downhill? Miguel! The weed upstairs in the labor office is halfway through smoking, so don't waste your time with a 'dead man' anymore, okay?"
"Okay, okay, but people still have to watch downstairs. Brie, Andy, you two can sleep in the living room tonight." Miguel thought for a while and added.
"Oh, okay, okay, we get it." The two big white men looked at each other and then agreed reluctantly.
"Okay, okay~ Miguel, let's go upstairs, don't waste any more saliva here!" Juan waved, and the rest of the people pushed Miguel upstairs.
Seeing this, Tang Qian outside the door also breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, none of them came out, otherwise the consequences... would be unimaginable!
But it's okay, after doing this, I also have a general understanding of the number of people in the room, so that I won't be blind like at the beginning.
"Andy, I'm going to use the bathroom." A few minutes later, the white man Breedi said.
"Go back quickly. As long as we pass tonight, RD promises to give each of us 5,000 US dollars. Don't delay!"
"Don't worry, I'm just going to the toilet, why are you so careful!" After complaining, the white man Brie put down the iron rod and walked towards the door.
Oh no!
The design of this room means that the toilet on the first floor is not far from the entrance. In other words, if the other person goes to the toilet, he will definitely find Tang Qian outside the wooden door! Even if Tang Qian wants to hide, he will be unconscious on the ground.
The number of people was enough to prove that someone had infiltrated! Therefore, Tang Qian instantly fell into a huge passive state!
What to do? Are you ready to run away? Or are you ready to give up?
After all, Tang Qian is an ordinary person. To say that he is calm after sneaking into such a ghost place is definitely a lie. But fortunately, he is not the kind of person who has no idea. So he bit his tongue and thought forcibly: No, let's do this
The passage distance of the room meant that he wanted to leave unnoticed, but there was not enough time! Moreover, once he fled in a hurry, he could easily be ambushed and fall into a dead end. After all, this was his first time in this place, and the surrounding environment and
The situation is almost blind, so it is definitely not a wise choice to leave in a panic. Besides, the suspected Mexican named Juan has also said that he will publicly execute Barnes tomorrow. If he abandons Barn
If you ignore it, then it is very likely that Matt Barnes will become a cold corpse when tomorrow comes.
Tang Qian asked himself that he couldn't do this kind of thing without saving his life!
Then the only choice left is... to stay and continue to save people!
But the situation is urgent now. If he is discovered by the other party, not to mention rescuing Barnes, even his own safety may be a problem.
what should I do?
Tang Qian's mind was spinning rapidly, and in an instant, he actually came up with a solution.
Since you can't escape or hide, then... strike first!
"By the way, Brie, please close the door for me. I don't want to smell your urine and feces with my nose!" Just when Brie, a white man, was about to open the door, Andy shouted to him.
"I know, I know, he is such a troublemaker, he has so much trouble!" While complaining, Brie pushed open the wooden door, and the moment he closed the door, a black figure ran out from behind the door.
Come out!
Boom~
There was a muffled sound, and the white man Brie felt a pain in the back of his head, and then lost consciousness.
Phew~
Tang Qian supported his body with one hand and then slowly lowered him, not daring to make any noise during this process.
Finally got one done first!
Tang Qian also thought about what to do next. One word: wait.
Why do you say that? Because after seeing that Bree has not returned for a long time, the remaining white man will most likely get up and come out to investigate. At this time, all he has to do is repeat his old tricks.
Waiting was definitely a difficult thing. Tang Qian felt that it had never been so difficult in his life. Not only did he not dare to make a sound, he even did not dare to breathe louder. His whole state was like a ghost in the shadows.
Like a shadow, apart from silence, it is still silence.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes... After ten full minutes, the white man in the living room couldn't help shouting: "Hey, Bree, did you fall into the toilet? What took you so long?
?”
After a few more minutes, Andy, a white man, muttered dissatisfiedly: "***! What is this piece of shit doing? Could it be that he fell asleep while sitting on the toilet?"
Finally ready to come out!
Tang Qian's spirit was once again tense to the limit. He controlled his breathing and held his breath for fear that Andy would notice something was wrong.
As long as the other party calls out, you will be doomed!
Breaking into a gangster's den alone is something that only Spider-Man and Batman would dare to do! If Tang Qian were to do it, he would undoubtedly be destined to die!
After all, he is still an ordinary person and does not have superhero abilities.
"Brie! Brie! Shi.t! If you don't talk to me, I will go to the toilet and fill your mouth with dog shit!!!"
"Fuck! Brie! Did you hear that???"
Accompanied by the sound of cursing and walking, the white man Andy also pushed open the door. As soon as he pushed it open, he was stunned.
Who is the person lying on the ground in front of me, if not Brie, who just went to the toilet? And not far away, there seems to be a figure, lying on the ground, motionless.
Just before Andy came back to his senses, the door behind him closed with a clang.
And Andy clearly remembered that he didn't even close the door at all.
Mo, could it be...
Just as he was about to turn around, he was confused and lost consciousness.
OK, solved!
Tang Qian breathed a sigh of relief. After he put Andy down gently, he opened the door and walked in gently.
Based on what he just saw, there should be someone guarding the room where Barnes is being held.
If he just breaks in like this, he will definitely arouse fierce resistance from the other party. This is obviously not feasible!
There is no other way but to lure the snake out of its hole!
Tang Qian thought for a while, found the light switch in the living room, clicked it, and suddenly the entire living room fell into darkness.
one two three.
Tang Qian silently counted three times in his mind, then reached out and knocked on the door with "bang bang bang".
"Brie? Andy? What do you want?" With a click, the door to the room opened.
The one who stuck his head out was a black man.
Since the lights were on in the room, it was quite difficult to look out from inside the room. Taking advantage of the other party's ability to adapt, Tang Qian stepped out from behind the door and punched the other party in the head. "Bang."
"At that moment, the black man also fell to the ground and fell into a coma.
f, fuc.k~ After finishing all this, even Tang Qian couldn't help but spit in a low voice.
Tang Qian took a breath, then walked into the room and said, "Matt, come with me quickly."
Although Matt Barnes's mouth was sealed at the moment, one could still read the surprise in his eyes.
After Tang Qian helped Barnes loosen his bonds, the latter pulled the tape on his mouth and said, "China Hot, why are you here???"
