Chapter 421: Look For Gu Mang. Now!
Gu Mang lived so miserably at Red Flame and lost half of her life there. There was no way that she would be so generous. When she first came out to Red Flame, she thought of ways to mess up Red Flame almost every single day. But after spending months investigating, she could not find anything about Red Flame.
Red Flame was too powerful.
In the end, she could only accept that her skills were not as good as theirs. From then on Gu Mang started keeping a low profile. But she built up Shadow League with all of her effort and even sold herself to the Killer Alliance to get more resources.
The underground forces of the Shadow League had long been on par with the five major forces in the world. Even if Gu Mang risked her life, it was all in preparation for Red Flame.
When they found out that Lu Chengzhou was the leader of Red Flame, Lin Shuang thought that all of the preparation was going to be for nothing. She had seen how the two of them interacted. Lu Chengzhou treated Gu Mang very well.
She wondered what he had done for Gu Mang to change her opinion of him so drastically.
Gu Mang rested her arm on the table and tapped on it casually. Her jaw was slightly lowered and she looked at Lin Shuang. There was an evil tinge of redness in her eyes and the expression on her face looked really wild.
It had been a long time since Lin Shuang had seen her like that. The last time was probably during school or perhaps she had been controlling her temper since she got together with Lu Chengzhou.
“No more cigs,” Gu Mang said suddenly out of context.
Lin Shuang looked at her intently and scoffed. “You’re in some godforsaken place and you’re thinking of having cigarettes? Talk when you’re out of there.”
Gu Mang hummed in acknowledgement. She cut off the video call and entered her game expressionlessly. But there were frequent errors with the operation. After two rounds, she pushed the mouse away irritably, leaned back in the chair, raised her head, closed her eyes, and squeezed her temples.
After sitting in the chair for a while, Gu Mang opened her eyes, closed the laptop, and went to bed.
Enforcement Hall.
Qin Fang looked at the man covered in blood sitting in the electric chair. He was panicking and asked, “Brother Cheng, just tell me the truth, when do you intend for this to all end?”
He Yidu’s face was very solemn. They did not know how many bones had been broken and the number of wounds on his body was alarming. The concrete floor was covered with dark red blood.
Lu Chengzhou did not answer Qin Fang, but he said weakly, “Continue.”
The deputy hall master looked at him uncomfortably. “Young Master Lu, we really cannot continue to inject more. If we do, you might die!”
8cc was already the limit. Adding 2cc could really kill.
Lu Chengzhou opened his bloody eyes. They had gone numb long ago. “Go on.”
The deputy hall master had no choice but to turn around and take another 2cc from the tray.
As he injected it, his hands shook badly. After steadying his hand several times, he finally aimed it well at Lu Chengzhou’s arm and got a clean insertion. He pushed the plunger down slowly.
“Are you crazy?!” Qin Fang was about to rush forward but was stopped by He Yidu.
“Get Gu Mang here. Now.” He Yidu lowered his voice a lot while still staring at Lu Chengzhou. “10cc is a very bad sign.”
As soon as he finished speaking, they watched Lu Chengzhou clench his fists suddenly. All the half-scabbed wounds on his body split open and the corners of his eyes were bloodshot and red.
He had not uttered a single sound in the past seven days and couldn’t hold back the hoarse sounds in his throat anymore. It was as if every single bone in his body was broken. The veins on his neck were throbbing.
Qin Fang’s expression changed. He had almost lost his voice as he said, “I’ll look for Gu Mang.”
As soon as he turned around, the sounds stopped and the deputy hall master’s anxious voice was heard. “Give me the cardiotonic agent! Prepare for first aid!”
Qin Fang turned around. The torture room was in chaos and a crowd formed around the electric chair.
He bit his lip and ran out.
When he reached the entrance of the little hut, Xing Zhi was sitting on a rock and eating instant noodles.
When he saw Qin Fang, he was shocked. He swallowed the instant noodles and put the cup to the side. Then, he said with a muffled voice, “Young Master Qin, why are you here?”
