"Ah! Ah! What did this guy do to us? It hurts, it hurts so much!"
"If you have the guts, kill us! Kill, kill me quickly!"
"I can't take it anymore, ahhhh!!!"
Including Joseph, not one of them could help but let out a scream of agony.
In just thirty seconds, they were in so much pain that they almost wanted to kill themselves.
And what was even stranger was that despite the severe physical pain, they showed no signs of losing consciousness.
A normal human body has a protective mechanism, which is to faint when experiencing immense pain or emotionally unbearable situations, in order to protect itself.
But they didn't know what kind of spell Du Fei had cast on them. They were in so much pain that they even wanted to commit suicide, yet there was no sign of them passing out.
"En, not bad, fifty seconds. It seems you guys have indeed undergone special training. But don't rush, the really powerful stuff is coming soon."
Joseph and the others had indeed undergone special training, otherwise, the pain they just experienced would have been enough to make them confess immediately.
However, even though they hadn't confessed yet, Du Fei wasn't in a hurry at all, because the main event was about to begin.
"Ahhh!"
A pain that felt like every muscle in his body was being torn apart came from his body, and then this pain continued to intensify.
In just ten seconds, Joseph and the others were soaked in sweat beneath them.
"I'll say it, I'll say it. I'll tell you whatever you want to ask."
David was the first to break. He truly couldn't stand it. Even if Du Fei killed him quickly, he didn't want to experience the pain again.
Joseph and the other two desperately wanted to stop him, but they were in too much pain to even utter a word of protest.
"We are from the Broly family in Europe. We came to China this time because our leader's ledger fell into the hands of that girl's parents. Her parents have already been killed by us, but we couldn't find the ledger. Later, our leader found out the girl had flown to China, so he immediately sent us here."
The Broly family was a relatively famous mafia family. Although not as prominent as the Gambino family, it was still ranked within the top ten.
Du Fei never expected that Liu Yingting's parents would get involved in such troublesome matters.
Although Du Fei had never dealt with mafia members, he could tell from movies and online news that they committed all sorts of wicked deeds abroad, striking fear into ordinary people.
As far as Du Fei knew, Liu Yingting's parents were doing legitimate business. How could they get involved with a mafia family like the Broly family and even obtain their ledger?
Du Fei didn't think too much about it and directly questioned David in front of him.
David, who was being tortured to the brink of death, was now answering every question.
He told Du Fei that Liu Yingting's parents were not doing legitimate business at all. The business they operated was merely a front.
In reality, they had been laundering money for the Broly family in secret.
The reason they met their demise this time was because Liu Yingting's parents wanted to escape their current situation. However, they were worried about being targeted by the Broly family, so they thought of using the ledger as leverage.
Little did they know, the Broly family leader was decisive and immediately sent people to their door, resulting in the deaths of both Liu Yingting's parents.
So, Liu Yingting's parents were actually money launderers for the mafia?
No wonder they met such a tragic end.
Du Fei sighed somewhat.
"Now, you have obtained all the information you wanted. The Broly family is an entity you absolutely cannot afford to provoke. Young man, you still have plenty of youth ahead of you, there's no need to plunge yourself into eternal damnation!"
Since David had revealed everything, Joseph felt that he could now speak openly with Du Fei, and it would be for the best.
He believed that Du Fei, upon learning that he had provoked someone he couldn't afford to offend, would likely change his mind.
"How I choose to act is not for you to tell me."
Du Fei instructed Joseph to take out his phone.
Joseph looked at Du Fei with confusion, not knowing what he wanted him to do.
When Joseph produced his phone, Du Fei told him to call their leader, the head of the Broly family.
"What? Call the leader? That's impossible!"
Upon hearing that he was supposed to call the leader, Joseph immediately refused Du Fei's request without a second thought.
You see, the reason Joseph and his men came was to capture Liu Yingting and hand her over to the leader.
But now, not only had they failed to capture Liu Yingting, but they had also revealed the organization's situation and the entire course of events to Du Fei.
If he called the leader now, wouldn't that be seeking his own death? Joseph certainly wouldn't agree.
However, Du Fei had clearly anticipated Joseph's reaction.
He didn't say much, walked over to Joseph again, and pressed a few points on him.
Joseph's face contorted, and the ensuing excruciating pain immediately engulfed him.
Two minutes later, Joseph, covered in sweat and looking weak, dialed a number.
"Joseph, did you capture that girl?"
The phone rang a few times before being answered. A deep male voice came from the phone.
Joseph opened his mouth, unsure what to say.
"Joseph?"
The voice on the other end carried a hint of inquiry.
At this moment, Du Fei, standing beside Joseph, snatched the phone.
"Broly Quinn?"
"Who are you?"
Joseph's leader asked as soon as he heard a stranger's voice from the phone.
Du Fei slowly said, "I am a relative of the girl you are trying to capture. The reason I had your subordinate make this call is to tell you that the girl doesn't know the whereabouts of the ledger, nor is she aware of her parents' actions."
"A Chinese? Heh heh, Joseph and the others are such waste. To be captured and not commit suicide." Broly Quinn paused for a moment, then continued, "Although I don't know who you are, you only have one path now: hand over that girl! Otherwise, she will destroy you and everyone around you."
His voice carried an undeniable tone.
Du Fei said coldly, "You seem to have forgotten something. I am in China. This is a forbidden zone for all evil forces. No matter who you are, or how powerful your background is, if you dare to come, you will surely never return!"
"Judging by your tone, you should be young. Having courage is a good thing, but as your Chinese say, impulsiveness is the devil. I'll give you ten seconds. If you don't hand over that girl, I guarantee you will regret it!"
Broly Quinn still threatened with a stiff tone.
"When words don't match, silence is best. I'll wait for you in China!"

Du Fei hung up the phone directly.
