"Of course it's here, Mr. Jia, don't worry. When I do things, I value credibility. This banknote can be exchanged immediately at Baotong Bank. So, let's have a pleasant cooperation?"
The butler slowly took out a silver note from the table and slowly placed it on the table. Jia Er went forward to take it, but was held down by the butler.
"What? You want to regret it?"
Jia Er reached for the knife at the side.
"No, no, no, don't be nervous, I just remembered something."
"My transaction allowed you to see the results, but it seems that your transaction did not give me the results?"
Jia Er looked at the butler, suppressed his anger, reached into his arms, and took out the small bottle: "I'll put everything in it into the food and feed it to those two people. Are you satisfied?"
He turned the vial upside down to show that it was empty.
"No, no, no..."
The butler shook his finger.
"The things in here cannot be used as evidence to get the job done. How would I know whether you gave it to the prisoner or dumped it out to fool me? I'm giving you the money now, and you turn around and run away. If you don't get the job done, the master will punish me."
The butler's reaction made Jia Er a little angry: "Then what are you going to do?"
"Don't worry"
The butler sat at the table calmly: "Since you entered this alley, I have sent people to check the results of your work. If you really poisoned the person, it should have taken effect by now. We just need to wait for a while. Once we have the results, you can take your wife and money and run away. But if you lied to me..."
The butler did not say what followed, but Jia Er could guess with his toes what the consequences would be for his family. But now that he had boarded the pirate ship, there was no turning back.
"Come, take a seat and have a cup of tea. It just so happens that you need some time to clean up your house. Why don't you calm down and wait slowly?"
Jia Er had no mood to drink tea. He was extremely anxious. The city gate would be closed soon. He would have to wait until tomorrow to leave the city. The gatekeeper would surely get suspicious if he saw that he did not go back. He didn't know when the matter would be exposed. Once exposed, he would be dead without a burial place.
He paced back and forth in the room anxiously. For a moment, the only sounds in the house were the butler slurping his tea and Jia Er's footsteps coming and going.
The time of suffering is always extra long. Jia Er was restless and waited anxiously for a long time. Finally, the gate of the courtyard opened and a figure walked in.
"Found it"
"How about it?"
The man nodded slightly, and Jia Er's heart instantly returned to his stomach.
"Look, I've already done the job. Hurry up and give me the money. If you don't leave now, the city gate will be closed!"
"Hahaha, sorry, sorry, I'm just making sure there's no problem with the transaction. You should be able to understand a businessman's caution, right?"
The butler slowly pushed out the five hundred taels of silver.
Jia Er picked up the banknote and walked out in a hurry.
"By the way, there's one more thing"
What else!
Jia Er looked back impatiently, and suddenly, a thick rope was strangled around his neck.
"It suddenly occurred to me that there seems to be a loophole in our deal."
Jia Er grabbed the rope around his neck and tried to pull it out, but the rope kept tightening.
"I can't seem to ensure that you, Mr. Jia, won't tell anyone about this. If this happens, my master and I may be in great danger. This is unacceptable."
"So, I have to make sure that Jiasheng you won't tell our secret to anyone."
The butler bowed slightly and looked at Jia Er who was struggling.
"You...you are cheating..."
Jia Er was burning with rage. He stared at the butler, and in his rage, the thick rope around his neck had no effect on him, allowing him to break free a little.
"How can this be considered cheating?"
I gave you a deposit, and after we entered the trading city, you paid the balance. Our transaction was very fair, but some of the terms may be unfavorable to me, so I made some minor modifications. So, Mr. Jia, this transaction is now completely settled.
Jia Er's struggle was becoming increasingly weaker and the rope was getting tighter.
The butler turned slowly and took the last sip of tea.
"What a great show, with huge rewards!"
A piece of silver fell to the ground.
"Who?"
The butler turned around suddenly, and the servant next to him was also frightened and his movements slowed down. Jia Er fell heavily to the ground and was in shock.
"Me? I'm just a spectator. I'm so satisfied with today's show. You guys did a great job!"
The voice came from above. The butler looked up and saw a woman sitting on the beam.
"Tell me, how can I reward you for giving me such a great performance?"
Volume 92: Chapter Chapter : Capture
"Who are you? Why are you here?!"
For the first time, panic appeared on the butler's face.
How is it possible? When did this person appear here? Why is there no movement at all? I have clearly sent guards to conduct a strict investigation, leaving no blind spots, and those guards are all experts who will not let go of even the slightest breathing sound. How could it be possible? How could someone sneak in?
"Oh, you really have a bad memory. I thought you were actually quite smart. I told you, I'm just a spectator, don't worry about me."
The woman shook her hands and spoke in a familiar tone, "This person must be our Sister 45. As a humanoid, she doesn't need to breathe, so there is no movement at all. No matter how meticulous these guards are, they can't sense the vital signs of a humanoid."
"I remember that there seems to be a loophole in our deal."
She closed her eyes and shook her head, imitating the tone of the butler at the time.
"This sentence is so touching! I have to write it down, it will definitely come in handy in the future."
I saw Sister 45 took out a small notebook from somewhere and started writing and drawing on it with a pen.
"Damn it! Someone come! Someone come quickly!!"
The butler shouted loudly several times, trying to call the guards to fight the enemy, but after shouting several times, the surrounding environment was still quiet, without any ripples.
"Are you looking for those people walking around in the yard? Oh, what time is it now? It's very late. Everyone should rest. You are such a person, but you let them work overtime. It's really shameless. Fortunately, I am kind and let them be lazy and take a nap during work hours. I don't think you mind, right?"
45's answer made the butler feel cold all over. There were quite a few guards in this small courtyard, and he was able to deal with them all without making any noise. The martial arts skills of the person in front of him were beyond his imagination.
The guard on the side did not seem to realize this. He grabbed Jia Er from the side, unsheathed his long sword, stepped on the long table beside him, and pointed it upwards at 45.
However, this attack, which was somewhat expected by the butler, did not bring about the desired effect.
45 bounced directly from the beam, kicked the guard's wrist in mid-air, and with a bang, Changdao flew out. Then, the not-so-tall body was seen going straight into the guard's body.
The guard fell at a speed twice as fast as when he flew up, and hit the ground heavily. The sound of collision and the sound of broken bones overlapped and rang together.
Then, the third sound, the sound of the long knife being inserted into the wood, came slowly.
"Oh, thank you so much. If I jumped down from such a high beam, I would probably sprain my ankle. You were so kind to help me use it as a cushion. How can I repay you? Ah... It's a pity that you don't seem to be able to receive my thank you gift."
45 slowly stood up from the guard's body, only to see the guard lying on the ground, his neck limp and completely broken by someone's knee.
She turned around and looked at the terrified butler, with her signature smile on her face: "Fortunately you are here, then, let's have a good chat about the reward, and oh, his thank you gift too."
"Please spare my life, brave man... Who are you? When did you get here?"
The butler still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, wondering what if this man was a thief with great martial arts skills who was only out to rob people?
"When did it come... I need to think about this question carefully, um... probably, possibly, perhaps, I can't say for sure, was it... um... at the beginning?"
The butler's heart sank to the bottom. The lovely woman in front of him, at this moment, looked like an evil ghost from the forehead and nose hell.
"Here, we need to dig a little further out and then reinforce this part."
Jiang Han was writing and drawing on the drawings at the moment. There were too many and too complicated things in his mind, and the parts he wrote down were often not very complete, so he needed to recall part of it while deduce the rest of what he wanted.
"Commander, I have captured the person. Do you want to bring him back?"
A call from 45 came over the voice channel.
"So fast? Is the other party so efficient?"
Jiang Han was surprised at 45's efficiency, and also amazed at how quickly the family in the city acted. Just two days after receiving the news that there might be a survivor, they immediately bribed the jailer and killed the man directly. They were so straightforward and decisive that he thought they would have to wait for a few more days.
"Bring the person back, we will interrogate him first."
"receive"
45 cut off the communication, turned around and began to pack up these people one by one.
Jia Er's consciousness is getting clearer and clearer. Where am I? Oh, I seem to have been deceived by that damned man and strangled to death with a rope. Is this what it feels like after death?
No, why am I still feeling pain? Shouldn't I be dead?
How are my family? My wife, my son, where are they? No, I want to see, I want to get up, I want to see!
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and began to breathe deeply. The cold air poured into his lungs, making him feel very clearly that he was still alive.
The scene before his eyes gradually became clearer and his senses kept returning. He discovered that the environment in front of him was different and he also realized that he was tied up tightly.
"Where is this place? Who are you? Where are my family? Where are my family?"
He roared loudly like a wounded beast.
"Keep your voice down. It's the middle of the night and everyone has to go to work tomorrow. How can you make me sleep?"
Impatient complaints came from one direction. He turned his head and saw Jiang Han sitting in the main seat. He also saw the butler who was also tied up and lying beside him.
"Who are you? How is my family?"
Jia Er was extremely anxious. He desperately wanted to know the whereabouts of his family, like a prisoner who was desperately trying to find freedom.
"Don't worry, this... um..."
Jiang Han didn't know how to address the jailer for a moment, and 45 beside him lowered his head and reminded him: "A"
"Oh, Mr. A, my people arrived just in time, and your family was successfully rescued. But now they need to be controlled just like you, so that I can ask some questions. I hope you can understand and cooperate."
"Where are they?"
Jia Er means he wants to see the person alive or the body dead.
"Okay, okay, since you insist."
Jiang Han clapped his hands, and NTW, who was outside the door, walked in carrying two large dumplings tied with their bodies. The two were still unconscious, but their breathing was steady, and the rise and fall of their chests showed that they were still alive, which made Jia Er feel a little relieved.
Jiang Han looked at 45 helplessly. Sister 45, you really need to practice your bondage skills.
45 looked back as if in protest, how do I practice? Can I use you to practice with me?
Volume 93: Chapter Chapter : Interrogation
After learning that his family was safe, Jia Er's emotions became noticeably calmer, and he was no longer as angry and desperate as before.
"Who are you?"
"This thing is hard to explain. We are revolutionaries, fighters, and ordinary people. But in this situation, you can simply understand us as good people."
"Good guy?"
Jia Er looked at the ropes tied tightly around himself and the three or four people tied up beside him.
"Good guy, is that so?"
"What else? Do good people have to be tied up? Mr. A, I hope you can understand one thing, that is, you made a deal, and this deal changed your position. Strictly speaking, you are now in the bad guy camp."
Jiang Han knocked on the table and emphasized his tone: "Then to us, you are an enemy. We are naturally as warm as spring to our friends, but when it comes to enemies, we must be as harsh as winter."
"Why did you capture us?"
"You seem to have too many questions, Mr. A. I have answered two of your questions for free, which is very kind of me. However, there is no third one."
"You keep asking me questions like this, which obviously makes me doubt my position. I almost thought that I was the one tied up there. Communicating with each other is a healthy conversation, isn't it?"
"Exchange what?"
"What do you want to discuss? This is a very interesting question. Actually, I already know the general outline of this matter, but there are still some small details that need to be understood. Therefore, I need to ask you some questions one by one. Don't worry, it won't take long."
Jiang Han signaled with his eyes, and Jia Er was taken away by NTW. He was taken to an empty woodshed and thrown on the ground casually.
"Wait, wait, my home..."
