As he spoke, he opened his coat and pulled out his wallet slightly, revealing a thick wad of banknotes inside.

The money was given to me by Mr. Wu before I arrived.

It's the lira.

Before the euro was created, it was the official currency of Italy.

Although Lin Zhengyi was not short of money, he left in such a hurry that he didn't have time to exchange any lira. Fortunately, Mr. Wu was quite thoughtful and had his subordinates send Lin Zhengyi a stack of lira to use before he boarded the plane.

The security guard immediately spotted the lira in Lin Zhengyi's wallet.

Suddenly his eyes lit up.

Then, he rubbed his nose, looked around, and said, "Actually, I also want to talk about some other news!"

Hear this!

Lin Zhengyi smiled and said, "It seems we agree. Let's go then!"

As he spoke, he led the other person to a side alley.

After the two entered the alley.

Lin Zhengyi didn't give any money.

Instead, taking advantage of the other person's inattention, he grabbed the other person's neck and slammed him against the wall.

first timing!

The security guard instinctively struggled.

But no matter how much he struggled, punched and kicked, Lin Zhengyi endured it all without backing down.

Because Lin Zhengyi had grabbed him by the neck and pinned him against the wall, the man struggled to no avail and was unable to utter a single word.

Xiao Li, who had also come in, was stunned by what he saw.

"Mr. Lin, what are you doing?" Xiao Li asked hurriedly.

To this!

Lin Zhengyi did not answer immediately. Instead, he took out a pocket watch from his pocket with his other hand and began to wave it in front of the security guard.

Soon!

The security guard's eyes were glazed over, and he had fallen into a hypnotic state.

At this moment!

Lin Zhengyi finally had time to respond to Xiao Li, and explained calmly, "From the beginning, you said you had come many times and investigated and questioned many times. I knew that the normal method would not be able to smell anything. At most, you would get the same answer as what you got!"

"So, I decided to ask directly from the beginning, but not to get an answer. Instead, I wanted to find out if the other person knew about it. If they did, their expression and eyes would change no matter what they said. You can tell by observing carefully."

"When I asked, the other party seemed impatient in their reply, but a hint of apprehension flashed before they answered, and their expression subtly changed. Therefore, I concluded that they definitely knew something, but were afraid of some kind of power and dared not speak out!"

"Only under these circumstances did I lure her here!"

Listen to Lin Zhengyi's words.

Xiao Li was stunned.

He had previously thought that Lin Zhengyi was doing something pointless.

Unexpectedly, it was my own lack of comprehension that prevented me from seeing what the other party was trying to do!

Just thinking about it.

Xiao Li saw it again; Lin Zhengyi was asking the security guard, whose eyes were glazed over.

The security guard, just like an honest man, was vomiting everything out.

Suddenly!

Xiao Li was shocked again.

a long time!

"I never thought hypnosis actually existed!" Xiao Li exclaimed to himself as he came to his senses.

However, Lin Zhengyi paid no attention to his current thoughts and began interrogating the security guard on his own.

quickly!

Lin Zhengyi also got a name from the security guard.

The Esther family.

A mafia family native to Italy.

While Italy's influence and strength may not be the absolute top tier, it is certainly among the best of the best.

Their main business, besides traditional arms dealing and the sale of high-energy drugs, as well as engaging in sex work, also involves something that sounds completely out of the modern sense, more like something from ancient times.

Human trafficking.

They typically target women who are traveling alone, orphans, single women living alone, or women with limited social connections and whose whereabouts are difficult for others to track.

Then, secretly, they were sold like pets or slaves to wealthy but psychologically twisted tycoons.

The bar, and even the surrounding neighborhood, are now part of the Esther family's territory.

The Esther family is known for its vengeful nature. Once, someone spoke ill of their family, which was overheard by the family's second-in-command, who then beat the person into a vegetative state.

therefore!

People working on this site, even if they know something, dare not speak up.

Fearing retaliation from the Esther family!

This is why Xiao Li and the others couldn't get any information from him when they asked, even after they were paid, they still couldn't detect anything.

Knowing this, Lin Zhengyi and Xiao Li roughly guessed where Jojo had gone.

He's probably been arrested!

"I never imagined that Italy would have such a despicable mafia!"

After cursing angrily, Xiao Li asked, "Mr. Lin, what do we do now? Call the police?"

To this!

Lin Zhengyi shook his head and said, "Don't call the police!"

Xiao Li frowned, a look of confusion on his face.

“If calling the police were effective, they wouldn’t have been around for so long!” Lin Zhengyi said.

According to the security guard, the other party has been there for more than a year or two.

It has been several decades.

The other party has been doing this kind of business for quite some time. Perhaps many people have gone missing and no one has paid attention or reported it to the police, but it's impossible to say that no one has paid attention or reported it to the police for all of them, right?

There must be a few.

But why hasn't the Esther family run into trouble yet?

Clearly, the other party either has connections, a powerful background, or cunning methods.

No matter the situation, calling the police would be like alerting the enemy.

Upon hearing Lin Zhengyi's words, Xiao Li suddenly realized the truth.

But then!

He still frowned and asked, "Then what should we do?"

How can you deal with a gang if you don't call the police?

Although there are some of them.

Yes, he was the only one who came with Lin Zhengyi, but that doesn't mean he was the only bodyguard under Mr. Wu. In fact, there were more than ten people, as well as detectives hired by Mr. Wu, but they were all searching for clues elsewhere.

Because Mr. Wu did not place all his hopes on Lin Zhengyi.

So, if they really need people, they can still gather more than twenty.

But these people are clearly not enough to deal with a gang!

"You don't need to worry about what happens next. Just stay put!" Lin Zhengyi said calmly.

He can handle the rest on his own.

Perhaps Mr. Wu still has some bodyguards, or perhaps if we call Mr. Wu directly, he can bring several hundred more people. After all, he is a wealthy man.

But the problem is, they're trying to save people, not massacre the entire family. Besides, they might not be able to kill a whole Mafia family with just these people!

Therefore, the first thing to ensure is Jojo's safety.

If things escalate, it will actually pose a threat to Jojo's safety.

because!

That's why he decided to handle the matter alone.

With his skills, it wouldn't be a problem for him to sneak into the Esther family, find Jojo, and rescue her safely.

After they are rescued, we'll discuss how to deal with the Esther family and such later.

"This"

After a moment of stunned silence, Xiao Li frowned, unsure of what to say.

Can one person solve this problem?

but!

Lin Zhengyi didn't give him a chance to refute, and said directly, "Alright, that's settled then!"

Talking!

He left alone.
