Arranged marriage, love blossoms; a fiercely devoted soldier dotes on her alone.

"boom!"

A Maybach drove out of the yard and disappeared into the night.

not far away,

Two suspicious-looking men were huddled in a corner. One of them was hiding behind a tree and making a phone call. He said, "Boss, Xiao Zhan's car just drove away."

"Got it, boss."

"Hey boss, it's so cold out there. Can you give me some money to buy a bottle of wine? My body and Ershaozi's are practically frozen stiff."

"Alright, thanks, boss. Don't worry, I guarantee that no one, no matter who enters or leaves the villa, will escape my sharp eyes."

Er Gouzi just hung up the phone.

"Ding-dong."

I received a 100 yuan transfer via WeChat.

Er Gouzi immediately grinned and said to Er Shaozi beside him, "Scarface transferred a hundred yuan. You keep an eye on the villa. I'm going to the 24-hour supermarket to buy two bottles of Erguotou, two bags of peanuts, and a pound of pig's head meat. Let's have a drink to warm up. This damn weather is so damn cold, it's freezing to death."

Ershaozi: "Okay, Ergou, hurry back."

Er Gouzi stopped after taking only two steps, his eyes revealing a look of horror…

Because two people blocked his way.

Ershaozi's eyes were fixed on the villa's main entrance, and out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Ergouzi was still there, so he asked, "Brother Ergou, why haven't you gone to buy some wine yet?"

Er Gouzi looked at the two people standing in front of him and stammered, "Er... Er Shaozi, I can't leave."

Ershaozi sensed something was wrong and quickly turned around, only to see two men blocking Ergouzi's way. He recognized these two men; they were the bodyguards from the villa across the street.

At this moment, Wu Lei said to Zhang Jie, "Brother, it's been a long time since I've hit anyone, my hands are itching. Anyway, Young Master Xiao didn't say we can't hit people, as long as we don't kill them, we can leave them alive."

Zhang Jie: "Brother Lei, this suits me perfectly, let's get this guy."

Next second,

The two pounced on him...

"Crackling and popping!"

"Ouch, ouch!"

"Have mercy! Stop hitting me! I'll die if you keep hitting me!"

In the darkness, four people were fighting, but two were standing and beating others, while the other two were lying down and being beaten.

The two men lying there, their faces covered in blood, cried out in despair, pleading, "Big brother, stop hitting them! You'll kill them if you keep hitting them!"

"Big brother, please, stop hitting me, it hurts too much."

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Finally, Wu Lei and Zhang Jie each kicked Ershaozi and Ergouzi hard in the stomach before they stopped.

Er Gouzi and Er Shaozi were in so much pain that tears streamed down their faces as they curled up in agony. Er Gouzi clutched his stomach and groaned, "It hurts so much! My God, my intestines have been kicked through!"

Ershaozi cried out, "My back is broken and I can't move!"

Wu Lei said coldly, "Stop pretending, you two. We were careful with our strength, only scratching the surface, not breaking the bones. If we weren't interrogating you, you would have been dead ten times over."

Er Gouzi trembled in fright upon hearing this, stopped whimpering, and asked with his puppy eyes, "What do you two want to ask? We don't know anything."

Wu Lei: "You're pretending to be a coward now? Confess honestly, who gave you permission to keep an eye on the villa?"

At this moment, Zhang Jie searched Er Gouzi's body and found his cell phone. After turning it on, he saw the phone number that had just been dialed.

Then take a screenshot and send it to Xiao Zhan.

Er Gouzi was still trying to be stubborn, but when he saw Wu Lei raise his foot to kick him, he quickly said in fright, "Big brother, don't kick me! It was Scarface who sent us to keep an eye on the villa."

Zhang Jie seemed to remember something and asked, "Is the 'scarred guy' you're talking about the scarred man we saw at the detention center entrance this morning? He's in his thirties and has a ten-centimeter scar on his left cheek."

Er Gouzi: "It's him."

Wu Lei asked, "Were those people in front of you with you? Where did they go?"

Er Gouzi: "We're in cahoots. Scarface said we don't need so many people watching at night, so he gave us 500 yuan each to watch the villa."

Zhang Jie sneered, "Give you five hundred yuan and you'll risk your lives for someone else? Your lives are fucking worthless."

Er Gouzi said with a bitter face, "Brothers, these days it's good enough to just survive. We have no education and no skills. We're too lazy to work in factories and screw in screws, and we're afraid of the hardship of being treated like cattle. Only by following Brother Daoba can we eat and drink well every day, have money to spend, and sometimes even go to bars to pick up girls."

Zhang Jie said disdainfully, "You're really shameless, making it sound so noble to say that you're not doing your job properly and are lazy."

Wu Lei: "Er Gouzi, is there anything else you want to say?"

Er Gouzi blinked and said, "Big brother, I really don't know anything. If it weren't for the five hundred yuan, who would stand outside in the dead of winter and freeze, and even get beaten up by you guys?"

"brush!"

Zhang Jie pulled out a dagger, its cold blade gleaming coldly in the night.

Zhang Jie: "Er Gouzi, Er Shaozi, I'm giving you two one last chance. If you still don't talk, then I'll have to send you to see your great-grandmother."

As Zhang Jie spoke, he reached out and grabbed Er Gouzi's hair, holding the dagger directly to his neck. He said in an icy voice, "With just a light slash, your carotid artery will be severed instantly, and you'll bleed to death in no more than five minutes."

"Give me a straight answer, or are you going to tell me or not?"

"puff!"

Suddenly, a muffled thud came from Er Gouzi's crotch, followed by a yellowish wetness flowing from under his buttocks, filling the air with a foul odor...

Zhang Jie glanced down and cursed, "Damn it, Er Gouzi, you're so scared you lost control of your bladder and bowels."

Er Gouzi struggled to his knees and kowtowed repeatedly, saying, "Big brother, spare me! All I know is that Scarface used to be Luo Heizi's subordinate, and Luo Heizi is now working for a nobody called Mr. Sanmu. I really don't know anything else."

Wu Lei: "Where are Scarface and Luo Heizi?"

Er Gouzi: "They should be at the Night Paris bar."

Wu Lei looked at Ershaozi and asked, "Do you have anything to add? If you don't tell the truth, you're dead!"

Ershaozi was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, trembling as he said, "I know, Ergou knows, Ergou is telling the truth. Please, brothers, let us go. We're just a puddle of piss and a pile of shit. We're useless to you and disgusting to look at. Why not let us go? We'll be your informants from now on."

Wu Lei was amused by Ershaozi's words.

He cursed, "You little brat, you even know about Infernal Affairs?"

Ershaozi: "I love watching Hong Kong movies, especially Infernal Affairs, because it has many similarities to our lives."

Wu Lei: "Pah, you think you can compare yourself to others? You're really overestimating yourself. Ignorance is bliss."

"Beep beep beep".

Just then, Xiao Zhan called.

Wu Lei answered the call and said, "Instructor, Er Gouzi said he's Scarface's underling, and Scarface is Luo Heizi's underling. Luo Heizi is now working for Miki Hongfu."

Xiao Zhan: "Release these two after you've finished questioning them."

Wu Lei: "Are we just going to leave it like that?"

Xiao Zhan: "Just two small fry!"

"Wu Lei, you need to know that all the causes and effects in this world are sown by ourselves, and others will pay for them later. True strong people never look back at the quagmire behind them, because all our experiences should be used to strive for a more vast starry sea, and we should not get bogged down in trivial matters."

After hearing this, Wu Lei suddenly understood and said, "That's what a drill instructor does; don't get hung up on trivial matters."

Then he yelled at Er Gouzi, "Get out of here!"
