Screech!
Amidst a piercing brake sound, a Dongfeng light truck stopped. Several burly men jumped out of the driver's cabin.
"Boss!"
Upon seeing Qin Chuan waiting in front, they all showed respectful expressions.
Qin Chuan nodded, saying, "You've worked hard." Then, the rear of the truck was opened, and a series of curses erupted.
People, their arms bound and mouths taped shut, were pushed out of the truck. They reeked, their faces bruised and swollen, but an untamed fierceness could still be seen in their eyes. If their mouths and arms weren't bound, they certainly wouldn't be so quiet.
"All of you, line up properly!"
"Await our boss's judgment!"
"I'm talking to you, you dare glare at me? Believe it or not, I'll gouge your eyes out!"
While lining up, someone was defiant, his eyes glinting fiercely. He was quickly met with a ruthless blow, causing him to convulse and collapse to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.
This scene finally made this group of unruly individuals a bit more obedient. They realized they had truly become prisoners. No matter how powerful they were usually, they had to restrain themselves now.
A few minutes later, the line was finally formed.
Under the bright headlights, their expressions varied.
"Boss, the line is formed!"
"Ten rats in total, not one missing!"
Yao Dong walked up to Qin Chuan and said softly.
Qin Chuan's expressionless face finally showed a flicker of emotion. He asked indifferently, "Which two are Guo family's lackeys?"
Yao Dong pointed to two men in the line whose heads were more swollen than pig heads: "They are!"
"One is called Si Yan, the other Hu Lun!"
Qin Chuan's eyes widened. He had heard of these two names before. He knew they were Guo Guang's most capable subordinates. He never expected them to end up like this. Even their parents might not recognize them for a while.
It seemed the harvest tonight was truly abundant. Setting aside other matters, just these two, Si Yan and Hu Lun, if he could extract secrets from their minds, it would be enough!
As Guo Guang's two most loyal henchmen, Si Yan and Hu Lun before him must surely know many of the Guo family's secrets.
"Boss!"
Just as Qin Chuan's thoughts were racing, Yao Dong leaned in and whispered a few words in his ear.
Qin Chuan's eyes grew brighter as he listened. He casually glanced at the group of people and lowered his voice, "Are you sure this information is true?"
"Certain!"
Yao Dong nodded affirmatively. "All of us from the security team heard it at the time!"
Qin Chuan took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep puff, seemingly trying to calm his intense emotional fluctuations.
Originally, tonight, he had simply intended to get even and avenge his elder brother. As for the feud with the Guo family, that would be planned gradually.
Unexpectedly, he stumbled upon a group of people involved in suspected human trafficking. This was far more serious than ordinary brawls.
Since the Guo family was associated with these people, did it also indicate the Guo family's involvement? If the Guo family was indeed involved, it would be beyond his capabilities and require someone with more status and power to step in.
In that instant, Qin Chuan's thoughts raced. After a long while, he turned to his elder brother standing behind him and asked, "Brother, do you still recognize who attacked you that night?"
Qin Yang opened his mouth, then slowly closed it, remaining silent.
Qin Chuan's eyebrows twitched slightly, and a murderous aura immediately condensed in his gaze. He seemed somewhat annoyed by his elder brother's attitude even at this moment.
"Second Brother, you tell him!"
Qin Chuan's voice dropped several degrees.
Qin Yang certainly felt this tone, and his eyes became complicated.
Compared to Qin Yang's kindness and weakness, Qin Er Ge had a completely opposite personality. Upon hearing Qin Chuan, he almost unhesitatingly lunged forward, exuding a violent aura, and pointed at several heads, quickly saying, "Him! Him! And him!!"
"They were all the scumbags who ganged up on me that night!"
As Qin Gang pointed them out directly, the three men in the line showed expressions of panic. Qin Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he slowly extended his hand to the side.
Soon, someone standing nearby handed an item wrapped in newspaper to Qin Chuan. It was a long object, and as a gust of wind blew, it lifted a corner of the newspaper, revealing a sharp, cold glint under the car lights.
The cold light flashed and disappeared, but many saw it and their faces changed dramatically.
Under the gaze of many eyes, Qin Chuan slowly unwrapped the newspaper, revealing a gleaming straight knife.
The blade was already sharpened, reflecting a faint light under the car lights.
"Xiao Chuan!!"
Qin Yang's face completely changed. He never expected Qin Chuan to bring a knife. Was he planning to kill someone?
At this moment, it wasn't just Qin Yang who was scared. Those unruly ground rats finally became fearful too. Their pupils contracted. Their heads were not harder than a knife. What if the person in front was crazy and killed them?
Thud, thud!
Qin Chuan walked towards the group of ground rats, holding the straight knife. Looking at Qin Chuan's cold, iron-like face, even they, who were usually fearless, couldn't help but retreat, their fear evident in their eyes.
Regardless of whether Qin Chuan would actually cut them, his aura alone was suffocating.
"Qin Chuan, what are you doing?"
"I'm telling you, murder carries a life sentence!"
Someone shouted.
Qin Chuan ignored them and stood in front of a man, who was one of the three who had harmed Qin Yang.
Stared at by Qin Chuan's emotionless, icy eyes, the man trembled, trying his best to control his fear, but it was no use.
Until a cold flash of the blade suddenly swept past, the man was so scared that he immediately closed his eyes, let out a scream, his bones went soft, and he knelt on the ground.
"Plop!"
The sound was muffled, sinking three inches into the ground.
"Hahahaha!!!"
Qin Chuan held up the knife and laughed heartily.
"I thought you had tough bones, but you're just a bunch of cowards. The blade hadn't even cut your skin, and you're already scared to your knees!"
"With this kind of trash, the Guo family dared to send you to ambush me!"
Taunted like this by Qin Chuan, the man kneeling on the ground slowly came back to his senses, belatedly realizing he was unharmed.
He ignored Qin Chuan's mockery and ridicule, and instead, a surge of ecstatic joy welled up inside him – the joy of surviving a disaster.
As for the others, their faces turned red and pale, their expressions extremely complex.
Just now, Qin Chuan's actions had terrified them as well. They hadn't expected to be deliberately toyed with. Being manipulated like puppets was incredibly frustrating!
It was also embarrassing. They were seasoned veterans. When had they ever been so toyed with by a junior?
