Chapter 810 - Do you see them?
Chapter 810 - Do you see them?
Oblivious to the situation happening in the back courtyard, Lin Hui set the man he had taken down behind the rows of bushes. He didn't forget to tie the man's hands together.
He takes a step back and dusts his palms before placing them on his h.i.p.s. His head then turns to the closed gate, and a side smirk curls on his face.
"How should I take care of the remaining two rats?"
His left-hand raises to stroke his chin, and he puts on a pondering expression.
"Should I give a little mercy or collect their fate?"
"Collect their fate."
Just as his last word fell, a cold and familiar voice sounds from behind him. His shoulders slightly jumped in surprise, and he spun around to look at the person.
When he saw who it was, his mouth opens widely, and he wanted to scream but quickly covers his mouth. He stares with wide eyes for a brief second before calming his soul.
He lowers his hands and glares at the person who nearly scared him to death. At the same time, his forehead puckered in slight annoyance.
"Qi Li, are you a ghost? How can you walk without making any sounds?"
He has always been aware of how quiet Qi Li is, but sometimes he wishes the man would make some sounds. Even his breathing is so discreet that he (Lin Hui) often has to check if the man is still alive.
Shaking his head, he looks away but didn't forget about the answer Qi Li had given. He pursed his lips and stares at the space in front of him.
"collecting their fate is easy, and Lu Tian did say take no prisoners."
He crosses his arms over his chest and glances down at the man he had placed behind the bush.
"But killing them will mean trouble for boss to clean."
Qi Li couldn't help but agree with Lin Hui. Getting rid of Red Moon is a piece of cake, but it would add another problem for Yue Ling.
And as her subordinates, they do not wish to add more weight to her shoulders.
However...
"Shouldn't we send him another message?"
Lin Hui pursed his lip more and pondered over the question. If he could, he would have long put a bullet in Tao Meng's head for having ill intentions toward his boss. The only reason he hasn't is that his boss forbids him from doing so.
Now that fate is back in the underworld, Yue Ling cannot live a normal life anymore. If he and the others were to pulverize Red Moon, it solves the problem, but another will only arise shortly after.
His thoughts were the same as Qi Li, and he looks at the man. His eyes held a glint of danger, and he gives his answer.
"let's send Tao Meng another message."
Qi Li nods his head once, and together the two men make their way to the two cars parked outside the gate.
In the distance away from Yue Ling and Lu Tian's home parked two black cars. Neither cars were park at a close distance. If anyone were to walk by or drive past, one would think the cars belonged to the neighbors.
However, the people inside the cars did not know that they were far from any other houses.
"Man, what's taking them so long?"
A scrawny man with a haggard appearance hissed as he sat on the black car's driver seat parked further from the targeted house.
He glances at the driver's side-view mirror. Seeing nothing but darkness, he frowns and looks at the rearview mirror. He expected to see some good news, but like the latter, nothing.
"Shit. Where the hell are they?"
His right leg shakes nervously, and he scratches his head in frustration.
"We were supposed to head back ten minutes ago?"
He and the other man stayed behind so that when the others come back with Yue Ling, they can take off. However, there's been no sign of the four men returning at the scheduled time as planned.
"Tsk. Boss isn't going to like this."
He clicks his tongue in annoyance and takes out his phone. He makes a call to the man sitting in the other car.
["yea."]
"Do you see them? We need to get going."
["No."]
"Did they call you?"
["No."]
Hearing only short and quick answers from the other line, the scrawny man's eyebrows wrinkled together in perplex. He moves the phone away from his ear and checks if he called the right person. When he saw the name, his frown deepens and asks.
"Dude, are you okay?"
["yea."]
He received another short answer that made him even more annoyed. However, he doesn't dwell too much into it and ends the call. He puts his phone away and leans back on his seat as he closes his eyes.
"Five minutes. If they don't come back, I'm calling boss."
While he comes with the idea of taking a short nap with no fear or care about anything, he was utterly oblivious to the situation behind him. If he did, he wouldn't be so confident.
In the second car's driver seat, the man that the scrawny man had called sat as stiff as a rock. His arm kept raised while holding the phone next to his ear.
His forehead is cover in sweat, and his entire being couldn't stop from trembling. Even breathing had become complicated as he kept his attention ahead only.
"I... I-I-I... I d-did what you asked."
A bead of sweat slowly slid down to his chin, and he was finally able to struggle a hard gulp.
"P-please l-let me go. I did what you wanted."
He stutters like he was pleading with the person on the other line of the phone, but there was no one. The only reason for him being this way is the tip of a gun pointing directly at his head.
"Please... I-"
Before he could beg anymore, the tip of the gun is press against his head, and he abruptly shuts his mouth.
The dark figure sitting on the passenger seat leans on a Shimmer of light reflects across the person's glasses.
"Shh..."
Qi Li's face comes into view from the shadows as he silences the man. The gun in his hand was the one he had snatched from the man pleading for his life.
He (Qi Li) looks at the driver's side window where Lin Hui is and gestures his head to the other car.
"Alright, I got it."
Lin Hui doesn't stay to chat and walks away. As his figure disappears into the darkness of the night, Qi Li strikes the man with the gun, knocking him out.
Oblivious to the misfortune that befell his comrades, the scrawny man remains in the other with eyes closed. Just as he was about to enter dreamland, a light tap sounds on the passenger window, and he jotted away.
"What the hell."
He curses in surprise and sits up. He looks at the window, and all he could see was a person's
body from the chest down.
Assuming it was the others finally returning, he unlocks the door and reaches for the ignition key to start the car.
"Damn time you guys finished. I thought you all died in there."
He spoke his mind as the door opens and the person enters the car. However, he felt something was amiss. His head turns to the person as he asks.
"Where is the slu—"
Before he could utter his last word, a hand grabs him by the head and slams him against the steering wheel twice. His body turned sluggish, and he glances at the person that attacked him.
His eyes widen intensely, and all he could see was a dark silhouette before his eyes rolled back, and he loses consciousness.
Lin Hui stares with the cold and dark eyes of a hitman on a mission. He casually takes out a cigarette from his pocket and lights it.
"Like hell, I will let a sc.u.mbag disrespect my awesome boss."
Grabbing his phone, he dials a number before placing the phone next to his ear. The call rang once, and without letting the person on the other line speak, he spoke first.
"Bring them."
