Back in his seat, everything seemed normal, but Wang Li, being a perceptive person, noticed something unusual between the two. However, she didn't understand the reason behind it, so she could only pat Zhang Peng on the shoulder and tell him to get some sleep.
Wang Bo smiled without saying a word, took out a handbag from under his seat, and with a casual swipe, the money fell into the handbag.
The money is in hand; all that's left is to wait until we get off the bus!
Zhang Peng looked out the window, pretending to be deep in thought, but he had Wang Bo's every move under his control.
He wanted to see if Wang Bo would question his life and seriously doubt his profession when he discovered that his money was gone.
The train continued its journey, crossing mountains and plains. The scenery remained the same along the way, but the passengers, after sitting for several hours, were getting tired. They slumped their heads and began to drift into a half-asleep state.
The sky outside gradually darkened, and the dim yellow lights inside the carriage made people even more drowsy.
Inside Uncle Li's private room, the lights were on, and the fat man with his face covered in gauze and the four-eyed man were kneeling on the floor, their heads hanging low, not uttering a sound.
Uncle Li picked up the red wine, took a sip, sat down in the chair, frowned, and remained silent!
He has learned the whole story from the two parties involved.
The more you listen to this, the stranger it seems. These two people in front of you are his personal apprentices. While you wouldn't say their skills are honed through countless trials, they are certainly experienced.
Yet these two seasoned veterans stumbled, and in such a dramatic and embarrassing way!
The young man who splashed the boiling water was quite skilled. Actually, splashing boiling water wasn't important; based on Fatty and Four-Eyes' experience, even if someone really splashed boiling water on them, they could dodge it.
That's too weird!
Moreover, this injury didn't look like it was scalded by boiling water at 80 degrees Celsius, but rather like it was scalded by hot coals at 120 degrees Celsius. Even the doctor was somewhat surprised, as the burn was so even and so gruesome!
Uncle Li simulated the whole process in his mind, but no matter how he simulated it, he couldn't find any flaws!
In other words, this was a complete accident!
Uncle Li pondered for a long time before slowly speaking to the two of them.
"You broke the rules this time, so it's only right that you suffer a loss. Originally, you were supposed to be punished according to the sect rules for breaking the rules, but we'll remember that for now and deal with it later!"
Both of them remained silent, clearly still reeling from the devastating blow they had just suffered.
Seeing the two men looking dejected, Uncle Li took another sip of red wine before continuing.
“Originally, I wasn’t planning on hunting this time, but a small incident has dampened the team’s morale, which isn’t my style. Since everything is the fault of that silly kid, let’s use him to boost morale. Xiao Ye, go and scout ahead and test the waters!”
Xiao Ye nodded, glanced disdainfully at the two people still kneeling, and turned to leave the carriage.
It was completely dark outside by now, and the female thief, Xiao Ye, casually made her way towards Zhang Peng's carriage...!
Chapter Four: Aggressive
The train lights were dim, and it was completely dark outside the windows. Almost everyone in the carriage was asleep, with only the occasional snore coming from outside.
The female thief, Xiao Ye, slowly walked to an empty seat diagonally opposite Zhang Peng and sat down. She scanned the entire carriage, taking in everything inside.
everything is normal!
The silly boy was having a sweet dream, a faint smile on his lips, no one knew what happy things he was dreaming about.
Wang Li, who was next to him, was also fast asleep, her head resting on the seat, swaying gently as the train moved forward.
Although Wang Bo couldn't be seen from this angle, Xiao Ye wasn't worried at all, because everything was under her control!
She pulled a pack of cigarettes from her pocket, lit it, took a deep drag, and then took out a specially made lipstick case from her pocket.
This specially made lipstick case isn't a real lipstick; it's a thief's tool made of a special material. Inside is a special chemical paste that, once ignited, quickly produces a large amount of smoke.
For people in their line of work, it's inevitable that they'll get their shoes wet if they're always walking along the riverbank. In case of an emergency, all they need to do is light this lipstick prop, throw it into the crowd, and quickly cause panic and chaos so they can escape in no time.
Xiao Ye had a cigarette in her mouth. She aimed it at the lipstick tube and a hissing plume of smoke rose from the cigarette butt.
Xiao Ye remained calm and flicked the cigarette butt forward. The smoking cigarette butt was sent flying several meters and landed steadily in the coat pocket of a middle-aged man sitting below Zhang Peng.
The smoke hissed in his pocket, and a few seconds later, a plume of smoke billowed out of the coat pocket. In the crowded carriage, the smoke quickly woke up the half-asleep middle-aged man.
With a loud shout from the middle-aged man.
"Fire!"
The announcement of the fire was like a thunderclap from a clear sky, instantly waking the sleeping passengers.
Almost without anyone shouting, people jumped up from their seats and ran to the carriages on either side.
Some enthusiastic people rushed towards the fire and began stomping on the coat!
Wang Bo quickly stepped forward to protect Wang Li from being pushed by the crowd, while Zhang Peng ignored Wang Li's advice and rushed forward to stomp on the coat.
Within half a minute, the carriage was in complete chaos.
Xiao Ye smiled, moved like a fox to squeeze forward, picked up the large scarf around her neck, and quickly threw it into the air to cover the fire.
The already dimly lit carriage became even darker when covered by this large scarf amidst the chaos.
Xiao Ye squeezed forward, her hand already inside Zhang Peng's bag. Just as she reached in, Xiao Ye let out a scream and quickly pulled it out.
She could feel that her palms were covered in blood, and the pain made her grit her teeth!
It was too dark, and she had no idea what had just happened. She only felt that as soon as she put her hand in, she was cut as if by a razor blade.
The scream had already attracted the attention of the people nearby. Without thinking twice, Xiao Ye quickly withdrew and retreated, not even having time to take back her scarf!
Seeing that Xiao Ye had already walked away, Zhang Peng pretended to be surprised and called out to Wang Bo beside him.
"Brother, I think I just saw that woman rummaging around under your seat. Check if you've lost anything?"
Wang Bo was startled and quickly turned around. He reached under his seat and saw that the bag had been opened and the 60,000 yuan wrapped in oil paper had disappeared!
Wang Bo glanced back at the scarf lying on the ground and immediately imagined what had just happened.
He didn't bother putting out the fire anymore and turned to chase after Xiao Ye in the direction she had retreated!
The fire had already been extinguished by the crowd, and several train police officers came with fire extinguishers, but it was no longer needed. Officer Han quickly explained the situation, and everyone was relieved.
The passengers, still shaken from the fire, were no longer interested in sleeping and began discussing the incident.
The scarf that Xiao Ye dropped on the ground was trampled and stained by the crowd. Officer Han picked up the scarf and asked the surrounding passengers whose it was, but everyone denied that it was theirs.
Officer Han held the scarf with some confusion, as if he had remembered something, but was still puzzled. For a moment, he fell into deep thought.
Watching Wang Bo's disappearing figure, Wang Li suddenly remembered something and quickly turned to Zhang Peng beside her to ask.
"Silly Gen, do you still have your money?"
Zhang Peng patted his thick satchel and said with a smile.
"Sister, I'm still here, don't worry!"
Wang Li frowned, looking at the handbag with its buttons intact, and for a moment, she was also a little puzzled.
Wang Bo's face was grim. He hadn't expected that the female thief to be so skilled. He had clearly felt her hand reach into Sha Gen's bag, so why was the money under his seat gone?
Could it be a feint, deliberately trying to attract my attention, while the other party already knows that the money is in my hands?
Wang Bo was suddenly plunged into self-doubt from which he could not extricate himself.
However, no matter how much he doubted, he never doubted Zhang Peng.
Because the other person was right in front of him, and was the first to rush out and step on the fire, it was impossible for the other person to be there, either in terms of time or distance.
Of course, the most crucial point is that silly boy; he's too naive, there's no need to doubt him at all.
Meanwhile, the female thief, Xiao Ye, clutched her right hand and ran in a disheveled manner toward Uncle Li's private room.
Her right palm was covered in wounds, bleeding profusely. She had simply bandaged it with a long sleeve, which was now completely stained red with blood, but she couldn't care less at that moment!
She had just taken a quick look in the bathroom and found that her entire right palm had ten neatly arranged cuts, all of similar depth. Each finger had been cut.
To be able to injure oneself in such a short time and at such a fast speed, the opponent must be a master.
Xiao Ye's face was pale at this moment. Her mind was filled with the scene just now, but she still couldn't figure out who had scratched her.
It doesn't seem like that silly boy. His hands were always outside, which I could clearly see. There was a middle-aged man and Wang Bo next to him at the time.
Wait, could it be Wang Bo?
As Xiao Ye was thinking, she suddenly felt someone chasing her from behind. When she turned around, her expression changed instantly.
Wang Bozheng stared at her and quickly ran towards her.
At this moment, Xiao Ye felt only hatred. It was indeed him. This guy still wanted to kill them all!
Xiao Ye quickened her pace, ignoring the bleeding wound, and ran towards Uncle Li while covering her right palm.
The two ran and chased each other, quickly attracting the attention of the surrounding passengers, but Xiao Ye couldn't care less at that moment and just wanted to hurry back to find help.
As Wang Bo watched the other person speed up, his doubts deepened. Seeing that people around him had noticed them, and not wanting to attract the attention of the police, he could only slow down and watch helplessly as Xiao Ye ran back to Uncle Li's private room.
Watching the other party disappear, Wang Bo had no choice but to give up. Since the other party had already taken the 60,000 yuan and escaped, according to the rules of the trade, the money already belonged to them.
But thinking about it, Wang Bo felt quite resentful!
He had worked so hard to swindle 60,000 yuan from that silly boy, and now the other party had easily taken it away. This was really embarrassing for him!
The most crucial point is that the other party actually used a feint to steal the money without my knowledge, which really undermined my confidence!
For the first time, Wang Bo felt somewhat frustrated. He remembered Uncle Li's gang!
What Wang Bo didn't know was that he remembered the other party, and the other party had no intention of letting him go!
Xiao Ye, who had fled back to Uncle Li's private room, was in a disheveled state. With her injured right hand clutched, even the usually composed Uncle Li's expression changed!
He quickly pulled Xiao Ye into the private room, looked around to make sure no one was following them, and then returned to the carriage. While asking about the situation, he treated her wounds.
Upon seeing the neat and uniform wounds, a strange expression appeared on Uncle Li's face. He opened the wounds and muttered to himself.
"Such a fast knife, such ruthless methods!"
The wounds on these ten fingers were neat and uniform in length, and they were very deep. Upon closer inspection, the tendons of the entire palm had been cut open.
It's fair to say that Xiao Ye's tendon has been severed by his opponent, which has almost ended Xiao Ye's professional career!
After Xiao Ye finished describing the process, Uncle Li fell into deep thought. Had he misjudged the situation?
He really thought highly of Wang Bo and his wife. During their previous tests, he found that while their skills weren't quite at the master level, they were still top-notch in their profession. That's why he had been trying to recruit Wang Bo into his team.
The reason for sending Xiao Ye out to investigate the other party's background was to see their true skills. This kind of situation is very common in normal exchanges between peers.
But he never expected that such a small test would lead to such a vicious attack!
