"Brother Hong, I got the address, do you want it~!"

Outside the vegetable cellar door, several people came out again, looking murderous. One of them, in particular, tugged at the cloth belt in his hand, and his meaning was very clear.

Murder - Silence!

Qin Huairu inside had no idea what was going on. She stayed there obediently and behaved very cooperatively.

She never thought that the people she was cooperating with were not from the investigation department, but another group of people who came specifically for her.

In the final analysis, it was all his own fault. His lack of awareness of confidentiality and his lack of experience in the true struggle against the dark side led to this life-threatening outcome.

"Let me do it. This woman is pretty. I'll use her before I send her off. I've been very irritable these past few days~!"

Before the man shaking the cloth strip could turn around and kill, another middle-aged man who was not tall and had a greasy look, after reaching into his crotch, touched his chin in an obscene manner, with a look of lust in his eyes.

It should be said that the other people were obviously stunned for a moment. The leader, Brother Hong, grabbed the collar of the person who spoke, pushed him against the wall, and put the barrel of the gun in his hand directly into his mouth.

"Ma San, you are angry, aren't you? I'll calm you down. You are a piece of shit, you are always causing troubles but can't do anything good. It's already this late, even the ghost hand knows to silence you, and you are still thinking about these things?"

The man codenamed Brother Hong had a gloomy face, and the murderous look in his eyes was even greater than when he was interrogating Qin Huairu just now. Facing his subordinates, he dared to be so bold at such a tense moment. He didn't mind and would make him disappear forever.

"Don't, Hong-ge~!"

"No~!"

There was no doubt that Brother Hong dared to shoot, so Ma San waved his hands in panic and did not dare to resist at all. The barrel of the M1911 in his mouth was extremely cold, and his anger subsided immediately.

The other accomplices looked at Ma San with some disdain. It was already such a late hour, and if they leaked any news out, they would be shot if caught.

He even had the leisure to bully a woman, even though this woman was brought in alive, he had no intention of letting her leave alive.

Veins bulged out on his temple. Under the reasonable persuasion of others, Brother Hong, with a sinister look on his face, let go of his hand. After pulling out the pistol, he looked at the saliva on it with disgust and wiped it directly on Ma San's clothes.

"I repeat, discipline. After all these years, did you think you had cleared your name? Did you forget that you were doing a job that cost you your life?"

"If we're not careful, we'll all be implicated, dragged to a mass grave, and become targets. Our families will also be implicated~!"

Once the seriousness of the exposure was revealed, everyone else knew, without Brother Hong's reiteration, that they had lost the ability to move in the sun and could only stay in the dark corners like a mouse.

"Brother Hong, I was wrong. I have been single for so many years. Now all the brothels have been cleared out. I was confused for a moment~!"

Ma San raised his fist to beg for mercy and explained awkwardly, fearing that he would be thrown into the stinking ditch by others after the operation was over.

"I know you've had a hard time these years, but have I had it easy? Don't I want to live a peaceful life? Now the higher-ups have found us and demand that we complete this mission. If we do, we still have a chance to survive. If we don't, all of us will die~!"

After sternly warning his men who were still wavering in their thoughts, Brother Hong glared at Ma San fiercely. "The target's location has been revealed. Ran Qilin, the director of the Red Star Factory Research Institute, must have the information that the higher-ups want us to find. My suggestion is that we should do it tonight. If everything goes well, we won't leave anyone behind~!"

His palm lightly stroked the neck. Brother Hong's words seemed to have determined the future fate of these people. Not only Qin Huairu, but even Ran Qilin, were like chickens in their hands.

"Brother Hong, the people living here are not simple. The news should be true. Those who returned to China like to live here. As for this woman, I suggest you keep her as a hand. You may need her later. Get her out of the factory during the day~!"

"Huayuan Village sounds like an ordinary place, but the people who live there are either rich or noble. There are universities all around, and many professors live there. Although it doesn't reach the standard of a military compound with guards and patrols, it is not recommended to go there at night~!"

Everyone has their heads tied to their belts. The changes in the capital over the years are obvious. People have been staying in one place for a long time and don't know the place as well as they did in the past. If they take a wrong step, there will be no recovery.

"Ghost Hand, you stay here and watch her. She can't run away. She still trusts us and may still be of use to us~!"

"It's a dangerous place. We have to go there tonight to take a look. Qin Huairu, keep it for now. It would be best if we have a chance to catch Ran Qilin. If not, we can wait until we come back~!"

More than ten years later, when arranging the operation again, Brother Hong was obviously a little unfamiliar with it. After hesitating for a moment, he followed the advice of another subordinate and decided to at least wait and see whether to kill or not.

"Everyone else, spread out and gather outside Xizhimen. Be careful. Even if it's an old man or old lady on the street, pay attention to me. Move!"

The weapons were put back on the waist. Brother Hong's words decided Qin Huairu's life or death. After the others nodded, they all got on their bicycles.

The only one left was the Ghost Hand. He looked at the belt in his hand and returned to the vegetable cellar with a furious look on his face.

Qin Huairu was a little scared when she heard the heavy footsteps, but she couldn't see anything and her arms were sore.

"Comrade, I have cooperated with you very well and told you everything I know. Please let me go back. This is really all I know~!"

Just as Brother Hong said, Qin Huairu is indeed still valuable. Even now, they are still regarded as people from a special department.

But Guishou didn't have as good a temper as Brother Hong. It was him who slapped Qin Huairu in the face just now. Looking at this woman who was about to die, he was still thinking about going back, with a hideous smile on his face.

"Don't worry. We don't know whether what you said is true or not. We have to check it out. Don't worry, as long as you cooperate, we will let you go back!"

Patting Qin Huairu's cheek, the ghost hand picked up the scraps of cloth thrown on the shelf. Although this place was relatively safe, one still had to be on guard.

"Open your mouth~!"

Qin Huairu's mouth was pinched open and the scraps of cloth were stuffed back into her mouth. The cloth strip that was originally intended to be used to strangle this woman was tied around her mouth again.

Qin Huairu, who had no idea that death was coming, still cooperated obediently and did not dare to make the slightest movement.

She hoped that these people would take Ran Qilin away for investigation as soon as possible so that she could return home as soon as possible.

This night, many people may have trouble sleeping. (End of this chapter)
