Compared with the first underground passage that Xu Lang and the others entered before, this time, the underground passage that Xu Lang and the others entered was very short, only less than fifty meters before they saw the exit.
Although the passage is only fifty meters long, there are three corners.
When Xu Lang and the others walked out of the underground passage, Xu Lang discovered that they had actually walked out of the unfinished building and were now in a large wasteland.
"Hey, this bitch might be thoughtful, Cunning Rabbit Three Cave. It seems that when they were setting up this underground casino, they had already prepared these escape routes." Du Ziqiao clicked his tongue in surprise.
Xu Lang didn't express any emotion. He held a flashlight and looked for something near the entrance of the cave.
After flicking the flashlight for a few times, Xu Lang saw the black high-heeled shoes that had been broken. Xu Lang walked over, picked up the high-heeled shoes and looked at them. He found that these high-heeled shoes were from a famous brand. Unfortunately, these shoes were only suitable for use on flat ground.
Walking here is not suitable at all.
Xu Lang handed the high-heeled shoes in his hand to Ding Haoqiong, because Xu Lang saw a few drops of blood near the high-heeled shoes, and the blood was still very fresh. Xu Lang touched it with his fingers, put it under his nose and smelled it, then stood up
He stood up and said, "She can't run far."
"Why?" Du Ziqiao asked curiously.
"She's injured." Xu Lang pointed at the blood on the ground with his finger.
Du Ziqiao glanced at the blood on the ground, nodded, picked up the walkie-talkie and called the people involved in the search here.
It didn't take long for a large group of police officers to arrive here. Under Du Ziqiao's arrangement, they launched a detailed search of the area.
Xu Lang stood there without moving, but his eyes were looking around. Although it was a wasteland, there were countless large and small mounds of earth. They should be the building materials left behind when these buildings were built. Because of the project
We can't go on, and the dirt and gravel are worthless things, so no one will move them away, so there are still many piles of dirt here.
On these mounds, some are bare, while others have some weeds growing there. Sure enough, nature always rises, and weeds that look extremely fragile and vulnerable always appear in places that people don't expect.
Because it is already late at night, the moon in the sky is not very bright to begin with. At this moment, it has been covered by a group of dark clouds, and the originally dark night has become even darker. Only the flashlights in the hands of the police
Still emitting a faint light.
Ding Haoqiong looked at the people who were busy searching and asked Xu Lang: "You said she is a woman and she was injured, where can she run?"
Xu Lang did not answer the question immediately, but turned his head, looked at Ding Haoqiong, and asked: "If you were her, what would you do in this situation?"
"What would I do?"
Ding Haoqiong looked around, then thought for a while, and said: "If I were her, knowing that all intersections are now blocked, it is definitely impossible to run out. If I go back, it will be the same.
Having thrown myself into a trap and being injured again, I will definitely find a place to hide and let the police think that I have left. As long as the police search without results, they will definitely expand the search area or change the direction of the search."
Xu Lang nodded and said, "Yes, people are indeed very smart, but sometimes, there is actually no difference between humans and animals."
Hearing what Xu Lang said, Ding Haoqiong looked at Xu Lang doubtfully and asked in surprise: "Do you know where she is hiding?"
Xu Lang smiled and nodded, without saying anything, but walked straight to an inconspicuous mound and sat down. After sitting down, he stretched out his foot and stepped hard on the mound, took out a cigarette and lit it.
A cigarette, while smoking, he said: "Come out, do you still want me to ask you to come out?"
"..."
Ding Haoqiong looked around, but there was no movement. Except for the sounds made by the police who were searching, there was nothing unusual at the scene.
"Who are you talking to?" Ding Haoqiong asked curiously.
"Of course he is the person we are looking for." Xu Lang said with a smile.
"Do you know where she is?"
Xu Lang nodded with a smile, looked down at the mound of soil under his butt, and said: "A person can only survive for about twenty minutes in a space with thin oxygen. If you have good perseverance and good luck,
, she can survive in there for several hours, but since you are not a professionally trained person, I estimate that you will suffocate to death before the police leave."
"Do you feel it's difficult to breathe now? Does your throat feel like it's on fire? Come out. If you don't come out, I'll have someone hold a bonfire party here."
While Xu Lang was talking to himself, Du Ziqiao, Ding Haoqiong and others also came over.
Under the illumination of several strong flashlights, Ding Haoqiong discovered that the mound of soil did not look very impressive in the dark night. The soil had traces of being turned over. It was obvious that there was something wrong with this mound.
"Is she hiding in this land?" Ding Haoqiong looked at the mound, then looked at Xu Lang, and asked incredulously.
Xu Lang smiled, nodded, and said, "You're not coming out, are you? Go and find some firewood. I'm a little cold and want to warm myself up."
"yes."
The policemen surrounding the mound looked at each other, smiled knowingly, and then said with a smile.
"rustle......"
"I'm coming out, I'm coming out, don't light the fire."
Just as Xu Lang finished speaking, the mound of soil under Xu Lang's butt moved, and then a very weak voice came from below.
Xu Lang and Du Zi
Qiao looked at each other, and then Xu Lang got up and came down from the mound. Other policemen came to help, dug up the mound, and then pulled a woman covered with mud out of the earth.
Pulled out.
The woman was wearing a tight black dress, which clearly outlined her figure, with her front and back bulging. The woman had long black hair. At this moment, her hair was covered with mud, and her
Her skirt was also torn on her thighs, probably as a last resort to escape.
After the woman was pulled out, Xu Lang discovered that there was a glass cabinet inside the mound. The cabinet was not big and could only accommodate an eleven or twelve-year-old girl curled up inside.
Xu Lang looked at the woman and then at the glass cabinet. He shook his head. He admired this woman for doing everything he could to escape. In such a small space, she, an adult, managed to escape.
Going in, I was really speechless.
The woman's face turned red, and she coughed violently after being pulled out. Moreover, she was breathing heavily with her lips raised. Obviously, she was not feeling well during the time she stayed inside.
Xu Lang walked up to the woman, stretched out his hand, brushed her hair away from her forehead, and asked, "Are you Zhou Yuxue?"
The woman took a deep look at Xu Lang, nodded, and then asked, "Are you Xu Lang?"
"Do you know me?" Xu Lang frowned and looked at Zhou Yuxue and asked.
"I don't know you, but I've heard of you." Zhou Yuxue said while breathing heavily.
"Who did you listen to? Deng Feizhang?" Xu Lang frowned even more tightly.
"Do you know Deng Feizhang? Do you know him?"
This time it was Zhou Yuxue's turn to be a little surprised. However, her surprised expression only passed for a fleeting moment and she soon regained her composure. It seemed that this young woman was indeed not a simple person.
"Where is Deng Feizhang?" Xu Lang asked without answering Zhou Yuxue's question.
Zhou Yuxue shook her head, with a sarcastic smile on her face and said, "I don't know. If you want to find him, don't ask me, go find him yourself."
"Are the deaths of Nie Fang, Bu Pengfu and Tang Zhiyong related to you?" Xu Lang asked.
"Guess, haha...cough cough cough..."
Zhou Yuxue seemed to have accepted her fate. She looked at Xu Lang with a happy smile on her face, which made Xu Lang frown.
Xu Lang didn't ask any more questions, but said to Du Ziqiao: "Take it back."
Du Ziqiao nodded, and asked his men to put handcuffs on Zhou Yuxue, and then escorted him away.
After Jack and Zhou Yuxue were arrested by the police, this raid on the underground casino can be said to be relatively perfect. However, for Xu Lang, this operation cannot be called perfect, because Xu Lang cares most about
That person, Deng Feizhang, is not here.
Xu Lang and the three of them also headed back, preparing to join the large army.
The people CSY wants to arrest have been caught. They only need to take these two people back for interrogation. As for the other people in the underground casino, such as those inside the casino and the gamblers, they can just leave it to Du Ziqiao and the others.
As for how to deal with them, there will naturally be relevant laws as the basis, and these are not issues that Xu Lang and the others worry about.
————
On the way back, Xu Lang did not take a police car, but rode Luo Jiayan's Harley-Davidson motorcycle.
It was already past three o'clock in the morning, and there were not many people on the streets that were extremely bustling during the day. Xu Lang was riding a motorcycle on the streets, feeling very solemn.
Judging from tonight's actions, although the underground casino was cracked down and the casino owners Jack and Zhou Yuxue were arrested by the police, Xu Lang discovered a problem.
Judging from the actions of Jack and Zhou Yuxue tonight, when they were running underground casinos, they also prepared several escape routes for themselves. This is what people who generally engage in these criminal activities often do in order to evade the police.
The arrest, however, also exposed a problem.
Whether it was Nie Gang's plan, Bu Pengfu's case, or Tang Zhiyong's case, they were all carefully planned and completed. Judging from the reactions of Jack and Zhou Yuxue, they were aware of it and were even participants. However, in the past,
Can their minds really do this? Xu Lang expressed doubts.
There is another thing. When Xu Lang was taking Zhou Yuxue away, he looked specifically at Zhou Yuxue's tiger's mouth. He found that except for a few wounds left by hard objects, there was nothing he wanted to see in Zhou Yuxue's tiger's mouth.
That weird scorpion tattoo on Jack’s hand, and Jack didn’t have it on his hand, then another question arises, who is the man with the scorpion tattoo on the tiger’s mouth who appeared at the gate of Bu Pengfu Community? Could it be Deng Feizhang? Xu Lang
Not sure.
Perhaps, the answer Xu Lang wants to know can be known after interrogating Jack and Zhou Yuxue. However, judging from Zhou Yuxue's reaction, it is probably difficult to open a breakthrough from her. As for Jack, it seems that
Very good breakthrough.
Thinking of this, Xu Lang had some concerns in his mind.
After figuring out how to interrogate Jack and Zhou Yuxue, Xu Lang thought of another thing, which was the matter of Tang Chundong.
Tang Chundong was brought to CSY from his home. Only he and the people in CSY knew about it. How did the person who wanted to kill Tang Chundong know about it?
Chen Huan was just a tool for the person who wanted to kill Tang Chundong.
Xu Lang thought about it and felt that it was only possible that after he asked Tang Chuntong, Tang Chuntong contacted his personal secretary Chen Huan after leaving the interrogation room, and the person hiding behind the scenes learned the news from Chen Huan.
Xi, then the troops were in danger and wanted to kill Tang Chundong in CSY.
If it fails, at most it will only lose a dispensable chess piece called Chen Huan. If it succeeds, then the death of Tang Chundong will have a great impact, not only on the Fuyuan Group, but also on the police.
It was also very big. The vice chairman of a company was taken to the police station and died within a few hours. What happened during this period? No one knows except the people at CSY.
And what would the uninformed masses and the all-pervasive reporters think and report on this matter?
Regardless of whether Tang Chundong was killed by gangsters at the police station, or whether the police did something to Tang Chundong that led to his death, this is very detrimental to the police, and the first to bear the brunt is definitely the newly formed CSY investigation team.
Perhaps, because of this incident, CSY, a newly formed group, will be forced to disband before it officially starts work. As the leader of CSY, Xu Lang must have an unshirkable responsibility and will definitely be punished. And this
Maybe this is the result that the manipulator behind the scenes wants to see.
However, fortunately, Tang Chundong did not die, and Chen Huan did not die either, so this sinister plan failed.
Thinking of this, a layer of cold sweat broke out on Xu Lang's back.
————
After Xu Lang returned to CSY, he returned the car keys to Luo Jiayan, and then asked: "What was the result of the interrogation?"
Luo Jiayan nodded and said: "This foreigner is really good at breaking through. He told everything he knew."
"What does he know?" Xu Lang asked.
Luo Jiayan handed the interrogation record to Xu Lang. Xu Lang took it and looked at it carefully, and then he knew Jack's origin.
Jack, male, 32 years old, is from M country. He came to China four years ago. Besides Zhou Yuxue, there was another person who came to China with him, and this person was none other than Zhou Yuanjia.
His son Zhou Rufeng.
Zhou Rufeng is only nineteen years old now, and four years ago, he was only fifteen years old.
Despite his young age, Zhou Rufeng is a mathematical genius with a high IQ. He graduated from a key university in Country M at the age of fifteen. Originally, he had the opportunity to study for graduate school, but he gave up.
Already.
According to Jack's own account, in fact, he didn't know Zhou Yuxue and Zhou Rufeng at all four years ago. He was just a poor gambler from Country M who had nothing.
One night four years ago, after he was once again thrown out of the casino by people from country M, he originally thought about robbing a sum of money and returning to the casino to make money. Unfortunately, although he had
This idea, however, he didn't even have the money to buy a gun, his pockets were empty, he didn't have a penny, and just when he was worrying about where to go at night, a stranger found him and gave him a
For 10,000 yuan, let him follow Zhou Yuxue and Zhou Rufeng to City S in China.
When Jack, who already had nothing, saw the ten thousand yuan, of course, the ten thousand yuan was in foreign currency, which would be almost more than seventy thousand in Chinese currency. This amount of money was very large for Jack.
A sum of money. At that time, when he heard that he was going to the Huaxia Kingdom, he was still very hesitant. After all, he had never been to the Huaxia Kingdom and did not know where it was.
However, the strange man told him that as long as he went to the Huaxia Kingdom with Zhou Yuxue and Zhou Rufeng and acted according to their instructions, he could get countless money.
Money, for a gambler addicted to the gambling table, there is nothing more attractive than this, so he agreed without the slightest hesitation.
Just like that, a week later, he saw brother and sister Zhou Yuxue and Zhou Rufeng, and followed them to S City in China.
After arriving in S city, a man nicknamed Brother Hua came to pick them up.
Brother Hua first arranged for them to stay in a hotel, but after only staying for a few days, they were arranged to go to an underground casino that had just been taken away by the police not long ago. They opened an underground casino there.
Originally, Jack was very reluctant to come to China, but after the underground casino was built, he immediately became interested. In order to gamble, he would obey Zhou Yuxue and Brother Hua in everything.
Seeing this, Xu Lang frowned and asked, "Who was the strange man who found him in Country M?"
Luo Jiayan shook her head and said: "According to Jack's description, he is also a foreigner, about forty years old, blond and blue-eyed. As for the other person's name or what he does, he doesn't know anything."
"He agreed to come to our country of China without knowing anything?" Xu Lang asked curiously.
"It doesn't matter if he doesn't want to come."
"Why?"
"Because the other party is pointing a gun at his head. If he doesn't agree, he will die. You also know that in country M, no one will care if a gambler like him dies."
Xu Lang nodded, knowing that Luo Jiayan was telling the truth.
Xu Lang thought for a while and asked: "Has he met Brother Hua?"
"I have seen him, but not many times. In the past four years, he has seen Brother Hua less than ten times in total."
"Ten times? Is this impossible?" Xu Lang looked at Luo Jiayan in surprise and said.
"Jack's main task is actually just to be responsible for the operation of the casino and to see if there are any scammers in the casino. Zhou Yuxue didn't ask him to do other things at all. He knows a lot about the casino, but about Zhou Yuxue and Deng Feizhang
He doesn't know much about things," Luo Jiayan said.
Hearing what Luo Jiayan said, Xu Lang suddenly fell into deep thought.
