Chapter 1645: See Them Before Five O’Clock
“Mr. Li, you misunderstood …” Vesdruff looked sluggish, then suddenly came to his senses. Now, instead of discussing conditions with me, he is talking to me with a near commanding tone. This is the time that I must let the hostages go.
“Misunderstood?” Yang Ming sneered, and said, “I have not misunderstood. The matter between you and the Song Jiang police is your problem. It has nothing to do with me. It is now one-thirty in the morning. So, if I don’t see them before five in the morning, sorry, it will be at your own risk! ”
“Mr. Li, isn’t this- Isn’t this a bit rushed? I still have to discuss things with Mr. Victor Rajiv. Although he is my brother-in-law, he is the Blackhawk Gang’s leader after all! I ‘m just his deputy. I can’t make the decision! “Vesdruff said with a polite smile.
“We have been talking nonsense for five minutes. Now it’s one thirty-five in the morning,” Yang Ming said plainly. “I don’t care what you do. If I don’t see them before five o’clock, then don’t blame me for taking action against the Blackhawk Gang! ”
“Mr. Li, do you want to fight with us until the end? You know, the hostages are in our hands. It will not be good if you force us!” Vesdruff said threateningly.
“Oh? Really?” Yang Ming coldly glanced atVesdruff, then said, “If you have some unrealistic thoughts or think that you have a chance, then I don’t mind killing Nicholas Shevich and others. Although they are in the Song Jiang police’s hands, you should know that this is not difficult for me. ”
Vesdruff’s expression finally changed. Although his nephew trafficked drugs and was probably charged for a capital offense, he fantasized about retrieving Nicholas Shevich from China. Therefore, he was not distressed that the Song Jiang police would directly convict him. However, what Yang Ming said about sneaking into the Song Jiang Police Station to kill Nicholas Shevich was not impossible. Yang Ming’s peculiar skills allowed him to effortlessly escape the multiple people ambush on the dock. This was not easy.
Vesdruff sighed while staring at the expressionless Yang Ming. He took out a phone and called Victor Rajiv.
“Vesdruff, how is it going? Is everything going well?” Victor Rajiv stretched comfortably while answering Vesdruff’s call. Victor Rajiv had also received the news of Yang Ming’s imminent arrival. He had been waiting for the news in his villa.
“Brother-in-law, something unexpected happened …” Vesdruff smiled bitterly. He was spirited when he first came as he thought it would be effortless to deal with a single person. However, he did not expect that he could not reach an agreement with this person. This person had even pushed him into a corner.
“Unexpected? What happened? Did you accidentally kill him while you were capturing him?” Victor Rajiv asked. “If so, it’s not good. It’s a pity that you couldn’t get some information!”
“…” Vesdruff was speechless. My brother-in-law is too arrogant, right? Accidentally killed someone? It’s good enough that the other party didn’t kill me. “Brother-in-law, he didn’t die. He is sitting in front of me … ”
“What? He didn’t die? Have you caught him?” Victor Rajiv froze, then he asked, “So what was the unexpected happening? Is there anything wrong with the other person?”
“Brother-in-law, I didn’t catch him but he threatened me …” Vesdruff smiled bitterly, “He asked us to release two hostages before five o’clock …”
“What? Vesdruff, are you okay? He is alone, yet he can still threaten you? What nonsense are you speaking?” Victor Rajiv almost fainted after listening to Vesdruff’s words, “Before five o’clock? Bring him to me now! ”
“I … Brother-in-law, I can’t take this person away!” Vesdruff quickly explained, “This person’s identity is complex. He said that if he doesn’t see the two girls before five o’clock, he will take action against the Blackhawk Gang. Not only that, but he will also kill my nephew, Nicholas Shevich, at the Song Jiang Police Station …”
“His identity is complex? Who is that person that can scare you?” Victor Rajiv was angry. He even used my son to threaten me? “No matter what his identity is, do you think that I will let him threaten me? Isn’t he boastful? Does he want to go against the Blackhawk Gang? Is he mistaken? I want to see who is in charge of Meitena Town!”
“This …” Vesdruff said helplessly, “Brother-in-law, this person is an assassin!”
“Assassin? You say he is an assassin?” Victor Rajiv frowned; his voice indicated hesitation. “He is an assassin? How do you know?”
“Brother-in-law, do you know the Delay Man 001 of the Hawkeye Assassin Group? He killed even that terrifying existence …” Vesdruff explained. “Brother-in-law, we cannot offend this kind of person!”
“Delay Man 001 was killed by him?” Victor Rajiv did not believe Vesdruff. He sneered and said, “Vesdruff, you wouldn’t believe him with just a few words, right?”
“Brother-in-law, I didn’t believe it at the beginning, but he killed Jivanov right in front of my eyes! I didn’t even see how he did it; I only saw him casually raise his hands, and suddenly Jivanov died! “Vesdruff’s voice trembled when he was recalling the incident. He glanced at Jivanov’s corpse on the ground, “He is such a terrifying existence. If he wanted to kill me, I will already have become a corpse!”
“So, this person is powerful?” Victor Rajiv had to pay attention to Vesdruff’s words. “Do you have the confidence to keep him there?”
“Brother-in-law … This man is from the Butterfly Family …” Vesdruff smiled bitterly.
“What! The Butterfly Family ?!” Although he was afraid that it would be tricky once he heard that the person was an assassin, he was not nervous. He sat still on a lounge drinking his coffee quietly while answering Vesdruff’s call. However, when he heard Vesdruff say that the man was from the Butterfly Family, Victor Rajiv was shocked. He got up from the lounge. The teacup in his hand fell to the ground and shattered …
“Yeah, Brother-in-law, this is what I wanted to say …” Vesdruff sighed. “Even if we release them, others will not talk bad about the Blackhawk Gang. At most, they will just say that we adapted to the current situation and made a smart move … I’m afraid we won’t even know how we died if we confront the Butterfly Family until the end. Others will not say we are heroes, but fools …”
“You wait for me. I’m coming now. I’ll meet this Mr. Li in person!” Victor Rajiv couldn’t sit still after hearing “Butterfly Family.” He was the underworld’s godfather and Meitena Town’s councilor; he was not afraid of anything. Although there were other gangsters who were powerful in their local regions, Victor Rajiv would not forgive them as long as they were in Meitana Town.
But this Li Muyi was different. He was an assassin who came from the terrifying existence of the Butterfly Family, the world’s number one assassin group. If the Blackhawk Gang became their enemy, they better dissolve the enmity as soon as possible and have the gang leaders rush home to commit suicide, or else they would be wiped out sooner or later.
Especially people like Victor Rajiv understood how terrifying the assassins were. So, after listening to Vesdruff’s words, Victor Rajiv intended to go in person to meet this Mr. Li. If what Vesdruff said was true, he couldn’t offend this person. Otherwise, he would be a dead man.
Yang Ming was sitting next to Vesdruff while he was on the phone. He seemed to ignore him, but in fact, he found it hilarious. This Vesdruff is actually so afraid of me. Yang Ming would not know that he had intimidated Vesdruff so much if Vesdruff didn’t say anything.
Chapter 1646: How to Prove
Victor Rajiv hung up the phone. He opened the door and walked outside the room. His secretary was sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed. When he heard the sound of the door opening, he woke up in surprise and saw Victor Rajiv come out. He promptly greeted, “Mr. Victor Rajiv, do you have any commands?”
“Prepare a car. I’m going to the dock right away!” Victor Rajiv commanded him, “Right, where are the two girls who were sent here yesterday locked up?”
“The girls are locked in the basement of our headquarters. Mr. Victor Rajiv, is there any problem?” The secretary asked carefully.
“Have someone send the girls here. It has to be quick. Don’t cause any problems!” Victor Rajiv commanded. “Right, don’t be rough, and don’t offend them!”
“Yes-” The secretary wondered why Victor Rajiv said so. Is it necessary to be polite to the hostages? However, the secretary did not dare to simply ask; he just did as he was told.
“Ai——” Looking at the secretary leaving, Victor Rajiv sighed deeply. He was somewhat mentally and physically exhausted. Initially, I had a great plan. How did I suddenly provoke an assassin?
The Blackhawk Gang’s movements were very efficient. In a short time, Chen Mengyan and Victoria were taken to Victor Rajiv’s villa. A minivan stopped quietly.
Victor Rajiv came out of the villa and glanced at the minivan. The secretary rushed over and respectfully said, “Mr. Victor Rajiv, the car is ready, and the girls have been brought over. They are in that minivan, so …? ”
Victor Rajiv nodded and commanded. “Have the minivan follow us. We’ll go to the dock now!”
“Yes, shall we go now?” The secretary responded. He whispered to the minivan’s driver, then asked Victor Rajiv carefully.
“Let’s go!” Victor Rajiv nodded and got into his Rolls-Royce limousine.
Vesdruff nervously sat in the car. He looked at Yang Ming who had his eyes closed then stared out the window. He looked anxiously at the watch then stared out the window again. Why isn’t Brother-in-law here yet?
The Blackhawk Gang’s henchmen, who were camouflaged as sailors and porters on the dock had withdrawn by Vesdruff’s orders. They rested at the assembly point. It didn’t make sense for them to stay here now. Vesdruff didn’t think that he could do anything to Yang Ming just because he had men on his side. On the contrary, it would arouse the other party’s disgust, so he simply removed his men.
After a while, Victor Rajiv’s lengthened Rolls-Royce and the Chrysler Grand Minivan carrying Chen Mengyan and Victoria hurried to the pier and stopped next to Vesdruff’s luxury RV [1]. The secretary got off first to open the door for Victor Rajiv.
Victor Rajiv got off and quickly walked towards the RV. Vesdruff was relieved when he saw that Victor Rajiv had finally come. He opened the RV’s door and said bitterly, “Brother-in-law, you finally came …”
“Why, is Mr. Li in a hurry?” Victor Rajiv glanced at Vesdruff and asked quietly.
“That’s not it, but it’s almost three o’clock in the morning. There’s only two hours until Mr. Li’s deadline!” Vesdruff smiled bitterly, “Brother-in-law, Mr. Li is in the car. Will you meet him ? ”
“Okay! Wait for me in my car for a while. I’ll meet Mr. Li!” Victor Rajiv was the gang leader, and he was much more stable than Vesdruff. Even after learning that Yang Ming might be someone from the Butterfly Family, he was not frightened. This was a talent.
Vesdruff naturally nodded, then stepped into Victor Rajiv’s Rolls-Royce.
Victor Rajiv got on the RV. Yang Ming opened his eyes at this time, “Victor Rajiv? Leader of the Blackhawk Gang?”
“That’s me. Mr. Li from the Butterfly Family?” Victor Rajiv nodded, then looked at Yang Ming. However, to his disappointment, Yang Ming’s expression didn’t change; it was still neutral and unbothered.
Yang Ming nodded slowly. “Victor Rajiv, you must be here to confirm my identity. If I guess correctly, the people I want are in the Chrysler Minivan. Is that right?”
Yang Ming’s words seemed to be a speculation. After Victor Rajiv’s car appeared at the dock, Yang Ming had used his special ability to scan the situation inside the two vehicles. When Yang Ming saw that Chen Mengyan and Victoria were alright, he was relieved.
Otherwise, Yang Ming would not be in the mood to talk to Victor Rajiv anymore. If he were not clever and did not bring Chen Mengyan over, Yang Ming would not mind letting him die painfully after forcing him to agree to his terms.
“Mr. Li is a smart man!” Victor Rajiv saw that Yang Ming was straightforward and didn’t want to go in circles, so he simply admitted to it. “Yes, how do you prove that you are a member of the Butterfly Family? ”
“How do you want to prove it?” Yang Ming looked at Victor Rajiv with a smile and returned the same question to him.
“Since you are from the Butterfly Family, then you must be famous in the assassin world?” Victor Rajiv said, “I think this because you dare to come here alone, and you speak arrogantly. You should not be an unknown person. If your strength is so powerful, I believe that you should be among the top of the Butterfly Family … ”
“What do you want to say, don’t talk about this useless nonsense!” Yang Ming frowned, interrupting Victor Rajiv with a wave of his hand.
Victor Rajiv’s expression changed slightly, but it quickly returned to normal. In Meitena Town, no one dared to talk to him so impatiently. He was annoyed that this Mr. Li acted like this right in front of him, but he didn’t dare to offend Yang Ming too much. If what this Li Muyi said was true, then he would provoke a terrifying organization.
“It’s very simple. Since you are not an unknown person, you must have some acquaintances in the assassin world!” Victor Rajiv said. “I also know a leader of an assassin family. Our relationship is not bad. I will call him. If he can prove your identity, then I will release them without another word. ”
Although Victor Rajiv said that their relationship was good, he was just an acquaintance. The two parties had some partnerships, and Victor Rajiv was a longtime client of that assassin family.
“What family?” Yang Ming frowned. “There are countless assassin families in the world, and assassination is a very secretive profession. You can simply find a family, but how would I know who they are?”
“Relax, the assassin family I am talking about is second after the Butterfly Family. I believe that you should not be unfamiliar with them!” Victor Rajiv said, “They are the Charles Family!”
“The Charles Family?” Yang Ming had a weird expression on his face.
“Yes! I have a personal relationship with Old Charles, the family master of the Charles Family. I will call him. If he can prove your identity, I will believe you!” Said Victor Rajiv.
“Hmph, do I need to do this?” Yang Ming sneered. “But I’ll do it if you want! Although I don’t mind destroying your Blackhawk Gang, I’m too lazy to do it!”
Yang Ming was not too lazy to do it. If Yang Ming went against the entire Blackhawk Gang, both the Song Jiang police and Xia Bingbao would know. Xia Bingbao would know well that he destroyed the whole Blackhawk Gang since part of his strength and hidden trump cards had been exposed to him. After all, Xia Bingbao could definitely find out that it was Yang Ming who had caused such a huge commotion. He could deduce it with just a little association.
