I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

Xia Yanxi noticed Ouyang Qian's hesitation. "Go with him. Come to work on time tomorrow. Come to my office first, and I'll adjust your work schedule!"

Qin Ge laughed and said, "Don't listen to her. If necessary, being late is fine. I'll help you ask for leave!"

"If it doesn't work out, we'll find a different boss."

"Huh?" Ouyang Qian looked left and right. She was bold in front of Pang Yu because she had already made up her mind to quit, but after seeing how nice Xia Yanxi was, she didn't want to lose her job.

On the way, without Xia Yanxi by her side, Ouyang Qian became a little bolder. "Who...who exactly are you? You seem to know our CEO Xia quite well?"

"What do you mean by 'those people were arrested'? Who arrested them, the police station?"

"If they get arrested and taken to the police station, it won't be a place we can just see whenever we want, will it?"

Qin Ge retorted, "You know nothing, so how dare you come with me? Aren't you afraid I'll sell you out?"

"Aren't you a good person?" Ouyang Qian's eyes were clear. "You saved me at the airport and just helped me again. You wouldn't harm me, would you?"

"Besides, I'm just a penniless nobody. You're acquainted with President Xia, and you're acting all mysterious. Your identity must be more than just a nobody. What do you want from me?"

"Tu Se," Su Wenxi interjected.

Ouyang Qian: "..."

Is it really okay to be so direct?

......

"Who are you people? Why are you arresting us?"

"Do you know who we are? Let us go!"

"Do you think we're some Tom, Dick, or Harry that you can bully at will? We have powerful backers. If you don't release them, you won't be able to handle the consequences!"

"..."

After regaining consciousness, Song Qiuxia, Jia Shuo, and the others struggled incessantly, their harsh words never ceasing until their mouths were dry.

Hong Zhendong pushed open the door and entered, shouting, "You all better behave yourselves!"

"The people who need to question you will be here soon; you'll have plenty of time to speak!"

"I only have one thing to say: if you want to live, shut your mouth now and cooperate obediently in a moment!"

Song Qiuxia and the others remained silent for a moment, then Jia Shuo angrily demanded, "Who are you? Why are you arresting us?"

"We have powerful backers; you'd better watch out!"

Hong Zhendong tilted his head toward his men and said, "Give them a beating first. As long as they can speak, it doesn't matter if you beat them until their own mothers don't recognize them."

The underlings' eyes lit up at the news. They had been putting up with Song Qiuxia and her gang for a long time and had wanted to make a move, but they dared not act recklessly without instructions.

Before long, Qin Ge and his group arrived.

"It's you?!"

"What...what do you want to do?"

Song Qiuxia and the others recognized Qin Ge and Ouyang Qian at a glance, and were shocked and frightened.

We just mentioned it during dinner tonight when we were celebrating our victory. We said that the young man was not simple and we shouldn't be too careless. I didn't expect that we would fall into his trap right after we finished eating.

They now understood why the young man had said the 800,000 was too much to handle when he paid; it turned out he was waiting for this!

"Hey, bosses, it's only been a short time, what happened? You all look so disheveled, I almost didn't recognize you!"

Qin Ge sat down opposite Song Qiuxia and the others. "Let's chat while I have the time and interest!"

"First, tell me about your tactics, explain them comprehensively and in detail!"

"Pah!" Jia Shuo was inwardly suspicious, but outwardly remained assertive. "Young man, do you even know what you're doing?"

"There are far more powerful figures in the East China Sea than you can imagine. Do you think you can kidnap us at will just because you have some influence?"

"The person behind us is an incredibly powerful figure!"

"I advise you to release us now, apologize sincerely, and then we can discuss compensation. If you can satisfy us, there's still room for reconciliation!"

"Otherwise..."

"Click—"

Before Jia Shuo could finish speaking, a crisp sound of bones breaking rang out, his head lolled to one side, and he died.

Before he died, he only saw the young man opposite him impatiently slapping him from mid-air. At such a distance, he thought the other man was having a fit of chuunibyou (adolescent delusions of grandeur), but he lost consciousness the next moment.

When they saw that Jia Shuo was really dead, Song Qiuxia and Guo Kai were terrified and turned deathly pale.

"You...you just killed him?!" Ouyang Qian was also shocked, stunned and confused.

Why does he kill so casually, and why can he kill someone by striking out with a palm from a distance?

Qin Ge gestured for him to stop asking, "Don't ask yet, let them finish speaking first before you ask."

"I don't have much patience for you. Are you going to threaten me like that Boss Jia, or will you just tell me the truth?"

"Saying even one extra word of nonsense will get you killed!"

"I...I'll talk, I'll talk!" Song Qiuxia hurriedly spoke, her eyes filled with fear. "You...you should have already guessed that the three of us are in cahoots."

"Those 'broken antiques' are just our scam. We've been doing this for a long time, traveling to various places and making a lot of money."

"Those antique fragments were real, but they were prepared in advance; they were originally broken!"

She looked at Ouyang Qian, "When we saw this young lady today, we thought she was an excellent target, so we made our move on her. We never expected that she was your friend, sir, and we never expected that you, sir, would do this..."

Qin Ge glanced at Ouyang Qian and asked, "Why is she such an ideal target?"

"Just because she's pretty and has a good figure?"

"Do you people who engage in fraud and deception also have to consider looks?"

Ouyang Qian's lips twitched a few times as she turned her head to look at Qin Ge with a strange expression.

You just killed someone, is this the time to say things like that?

However, Qin Ge said at the airport today that Song Qiuxia and the other two were in cahoots, and it turns out to be true!

And that antique wasn't broken by itself at all, so how did Qin Ge know all this?

"Yes, of course it's related!" Song Qiuxia was terrified by Jia Shuo's death and dared not be ambiguous in the slightest. "We usually choose locations with high traffic, such as airports or train stations, for this kind of business."

"Then we'll take over two shops that are close to each other, one to open an antique shop, and the other to open a coffee shop or other trendy shops."

"We do this because our target is young, beautiful, and single women, who usually like to visit trendy cafes."

"Even if it's not a trendy store, as long as our decor is exquisite and stylish, we can still achieve our goal."

"Those young girls just come into the store wanting to find a good spot for taking photos or videos!"

"We'll lock them in as soon as they enter the store, and the antique shop will receive the news and make preparations in advance."

"Of course, in addition to these targets, if there are suitable targets among the passersby, we will also make a move if we are well prepared."
