Just as Zhang Shih-hao was talking to Li Chih-kai, Ah-hsun pushed open the door and called out to Zhang Shih-hao as he entered.

Zhang Shih-hao's face immediately darkened, but he didn't say anything. He simply got up quickly, pulled Ah-hsun out, and walked away.

In the damp, musty corridor outside, Zhang Shih-hao took off his hood, raised his hand, and slapped Ah-hsun across the face.

"How many times have I told you? In our line of work, you have to be professional!"

"Have you lost your mind? What did you call me in front of Li Zhikai?!"

Faced with Zhang Shih-hao's reprimand, Ah-hsun covered his face with some grievance and replied in this way.

"Brother Hao, just five minutes ago, the Li family delivered the money to that big plane."

Xiao Ma and his crew were preparing to sail back when the group that provided the intelligence called. They said they'd arrive in about half an hour to divide the spoils.

Did they bring kerosene up with them?

"Bring it!"

"Alright, if these guys dare to try and steal from us, let Xiao Ma and the others burn the money. We can't let them take a single penny!"

Hearing that the money was about to be in his hands, Zhang Shih-hao's agitated mood immediately calmed down considerably.

But he still issued a warning.

"Back then, the robbery of the armored truck at Kai Tak Airport was a result of a careless mistake."

Next time you really need to pay attention. If you forget the rules again, don't blame me for not giving my own brother face!

Ah Xun nodded, but responded.

"I'm sorry, Brother Hao, I didn't mean to."

Just now… those guys called me. They asked me to tell you that Li Zhikai is going to be silenced!

"what?!"

Zhang Shih-hao was immediately incredulous.

He grabbed Ah Xun by the collar and asked through gritted teeth.

"What are these people up to? I promised Li Zhikai I would let him go back!"

Besides, if we kill someone and this gets out, will anyone dare to pay up when we kidnap other wealthy people in the future?!

Ah Xun looked troubled and shook his head, saying, "Brother Hao, those people said they took a great risk when they provided us with this intelligence."

If Li Zhikai hadn't died, they might have suffered the same fate.

If they suffer, won't we suffer along with them?

Zhang Shih-hao was momentarily stunned.

After carefully considering Ah Xun's words, his eyes began to flash with a fierce light.

"Forget it, it's just that Li Zhikai is unlucky!"

Everything has two sides; his death might not be such a bad thing.

From now on, when we go it alone, this incident will serve as a warning, and we won't be afraid that those wealthy people won't obediently hand over their money!

Zhang Shih-hao knew how to comfort himself. He immediately pulled out a pistol from his waist, loaded it, and asked Ah-Xun again.

"What else did those people say they didn't have?"

"They told us to chop off Li Zhikai's thumb, and then, right here on Ping Chau Island, to clean up Li Zhikai's body!"

"Damn it, they really dump all the dirty and hard work on us."

"Fine, for the sake of the money, I, Zhang Shih-hao, will do all the dirty and hard work!"

After saying this, Zhang Shih-hao turned around and walked towards the room where Li Chih-kai was being held.

He was never a kind person. In his early years, when he robbed a cash transport vehicle at Kai Tak Airport, he dared to lead gangsters and police officers in a street brawl.

As long as it makes him rich, what does it matter if he kills Li Zhikai?

bang-

As Zhang Shih-hao pushed open the peeling iron gate, Li Chih-kai, who was locked in a cage, immediately looked towards the doorway.

But when he saw Zhang Shih-hao holding a pistol and his hood removed, his heart sank to the bottom.

"Boss, what are you doing..."

Li Zhikai, who always considered himself superior, became increasingly smooth in his address of "boss" when faced with life-or-death situations.

"Mr. Li, why are you so nervous?"

As Zhang Shih-hao spoke, he raised his hand and pointed the gun at Li Chih-kai's head.

"You...you promised you wouldn't kill me!"

"Boss, please don't kill me! I can give you more money, please don't kill me!"

Li Zhikai knelt down in the iron cage with a thud, all traces of his former arrogance gone.

If his upper body hadn't been bound by ropes, he would have wanted to kneel down and beg Zhang Shih-hao to spare his life.

When people are facing life and death, it is difficult for them to remain rational. Begging for mercy is just a subconscious behavior, but even so, Li Zhikai's nagging still made Zhang Shihao a little irritated.

"I'm telling you, can't you have some backbone, you're a grown man?"

You were born with a silver spoon in your mouth, and you've enjoyed all the good things in the world for decades. What more could you want?

"You've already gotten your money's worth, hold your head up!"

Faced with Zhang Shih-hao's biting sarcasm, Li Chih-kai was already in tears, his voice hoarse from crying.

No! No…

Did He Yaozong pay you to kill me? Don't believe him, I'll give you the money..."

Li Zhikai finally asked the question he had wanted to ask but had never dared to.

Little did he know that Zhang Shih-hao had no idea who his partner was from beginning to end.

When he heard Li Zhikai mention the name He Yaozong, he couldn't help but be taken aback.

No wonder those people said that letting Li Zhikai go back alive would cause trouble, and that they wanted to kill Li Zhikai to silence him.

If that's the case, then Li Zhikai absolutely cannot be allowed to live.

Zhang Shih-hao completely dispelled his last lingering doubts and raised his gun, aiming it at Li Chih-kai's head.

He pulled the trigger, and the bullet left the barrel, but because Li Zhikai was shaking his body desperately in the cage, his aim was a little off.

The bullet narrowly grazed Li Zhikai's cheek, leaving a trail of blood.

"what--"

Li Zhikai immediately unleashed a torrent of bloody rage, his legs went weak, and his pants were already soaked.

"Oh shit!"

Zhang Shih-hao took two steps closer and stuck the gun barrel directly into the cage.

Having determined that he had aimed at Li Zhikai's head, he fired three shots in quick succession.

bang bang bang-

Three crisp gunshots rang out in the room, piercing three large holes in Li Zhikai's skull.

Zhang Shih-hao turned away and shouted outside.

"Ah-Xun, are you done making the call?"

"Come in and tidy up the place. We'll get paid soon and then we'll leave!"

……

At 4:50 p.m., as agreed, Zhang Shih-hao arrived at a body of water in the East Bay of Ping Chau Island.

Qiu Gang'ao and his group guarded this body of water, each of them holding a long spear.

Xiao Ma and A Hao, who were responsible for driving Da Fei back, had been waiting here for a long time.

"It doesn't have a tail, does it?"

Zhang Shih-hao didn't rush to greet Qiu Gang-ao and the others. Instead, he walked over to Da-fei and asked Xiao-ma and the others a question first.

"Brother Hao, everything is normal!"

"Where's the money?"

"They're all on the ship!"

Xiao Ma's face flushed with excitement. Clearly, this was the first time in his life he had ever seen so much cash.

As he spoke, he lifted the tarpaulin on the airship, and immediately, bags of cash packed in burlap sacks appeared before Zhang Shih-hao's eyes.

Looking at the pile of cash that resembled a small mountain, Zhang Shih-hao immediately felt envious.

He waded onto the boat, opened a bag, and stared wide-eyed at the sight of it filled with gleaming gold banknotes.

Grabbing a handful of bills, Zhang Shih-hao untied the zip ties and waved them into the sky.

A sea breeze blew by, scattering the banknotes everywhere, like a rain of money.

Even when Zhang Shih-hao and his gang robbed an armored truck at Kai Tak Airport, they only carried a backpack full of cash each.

Now that this deal has been completed, requiring a boat to transport cash, Zhang Shih-hao's belief in expanding and developing this business has only strengthened.

"Brother Hao, they're still waiting for their share of the money. Isn't it a bit much to rush into giving thanks to heaven and earth?"

Ah Xun walked over to Da Fei and whispered a reminder to Zhang Shih-hao.

"Yes, yes, yes! Let's split the money first!"

Zhang Shih-hao quickly jumped off the boat, suppressing his excitement, and walked towards Qiu Gang-ao and his group.

Upon seeing Zhang Shih-hao approaching, Qiu Gang-ao, who was squatting on the reef, was about to get up when he saw Zhang Shih-hao waving at him as he approached.

"Wait! Brothers, you should sit down first."

As he spoke, Zhang Shih-hao unzipped his coat, which startled Qiu Gang-ao.

He discovered that the guy's coat was covered with bundles of explosives.
