103: Chapter 103 The Hidden Peerless Assassin

Chapter 103 Hidden Peerless Assassin

"The expert from the Red Tiger Gang used the Shenda technique and then turned into the appearance of a monster!"

"He was three meters tall with a waist as thick as a bucket, grinding his upper and lower teeth against each other, steam puffing from his large nostrils, and he could blow someone's head apart with a single punch!"

"So powerful?"

The crowd clicked their tongues in astonishment, finding it somewhat hard to believe.

"The other side isn't bad either. It's an expert specially invited by the Three Wolves Gang from the Dongcheng Association, proficient in Punching techniques, Kicking Techniques, and Marksmanship. Taking on dozens of people like you is a breeze for him."

Hearing Brother Fei speak with such passion, someone booed:

"To read Taiwan novels, go to Chaozan."

"How do you know it so clearly? You aren't just bragging blindly, are you?"

"That's right, don't tell me you were right there at the scene."

"Nonsense, I, A-Fei, am considered a Gang leader after all, and I have some old ties and friendship with the bosses of the Three Wolves Gang and the Dongcheng Association. Can't I even find out this bit of news?"

Hearing this, the crowd curled their lips.

A makeshift outfit of only twenty or so people had the nerve to call himself a Gang leader.

"Although the Three Wolves Gang got the full support of the Dongcheng Association, it's a pity they were still one move short."

Brother Fei snorted through his nose and continued:

"After all, the expert from the Red Tiger Gang entered the Demonic Path. As the saying goes, as the Dao rises by one foot, the magic rises by ten. In the end, he killed that expert from the Dongcheng Association with his bare hands."

"And then?"

"And then? Of course, the Gang leader was killed, the cops came to clean up, and the Three Wolves Gang broke up just like that..."

Speaking up to this point, Brother Fei sighed, and instantly stopped talking.

As if infected by the mood, the crowd also sighed repeatedly, losing their previous lively energy.

They were also one of the "victims" of this fierce battle between the Red Tiger Gang and the Three Wolves Gang.

Some were Gang members hanging out at the bottom of the Three Wolves Gang, while others, like Brother Fei, belonged to peripheral organizations attached to the Three Wolves Gang.

Last night, everyone had no idea what on earth had happened.

Waking up from sleep, they heard that the Gang leader had been killed and their turf had been smashed, instantly turning them into stray dogs.

Those guys from the Red Tiger Gang were incomparably insidious, taking advantage of the Three Wolves Gang being leaderless to sweep across all their turfs in Jiangbei.

Hearing that the Gang leader was killed, many people even simply turned their coats in the face of battle, transforming overnight into turncoats.

Only a single night had passed, and it was already a scene of the tree falling and the monkeys scattering.

Even so, these people could still hold on to a little pride.

It was hard to say what the future would hold, but at least for now, they hadn't succumbed to the enemy's tyranny and become traitors.

"I heard people say that there is a peerless assassin hidden in our Three Wolves Gang. I wonder if he can avenge the Gang leader and stabilize the current situation?"

One of them clearly had a strong sense of belonging to the Gang and asked with a hint of hope.

"Tch, what hidden peerless assassin? You must be reading too many novels!"

Brother Fei said disdainfully, "It's just that expert sent by the Dongcheng Association. He already kicked the bucket last night, and his body is completely cold by now."

I died?

Fang Cheng was somewhat speechless listening to this, and couldn't help increasing the strength of the Tuina Massage he was giving to someone's back.

"Ah, you—"

Brother Fei's bones ached fiercely from the pinch, and he immediately turned his head to look.

When he saw Fang Cheng staring straight into his eyes, a smiling face instantly appeared:

"Brother Cheng, where did you learn that technique just now? It felt so good it almost drove me crazy."

"Do you want another go?"

Fang Cheng also smiled very kindly.

"No need, no need, once is enough."

Brother Fei immediately shook his head, then climbed to his feet, calling over a few underlings to prepare to leave.

In less than two short months, he had been injured three times in a row.

It made this punk leader who styled himself the "Little Tyrant of North Point Night Market" feel afraid.

Now he was preparing to run off to the countryside to lie low.

Many people held similar thoughts.

For some time in the future, Jiangbei and Jiuchang Street would probably not be peaceful.

Strictly speaking, the Three Wolves Gang was still somewhat righteous; usually, they rarely collected protection money from ordinary vendors.

Aside from the murder case that happened a while ago, cases of robbery and theft were relatively rare on their turf.

Those bastards from the Red Tiger Gang were different; they were capable of every despicable and wicked deed imaginable.

Listening to the discussion of the crowd, Fang Cheng shook his head inwardly.

Although somewhat disappointed that the Three Wolves Gang was so vulnerable.

But some things ultimately had to be solved by oneself.

If the Red Tiger Gang let the matter rest here, then that would be easy to talk about.

If they continued to press the issue relentlessly, then Fang Cheng was certainly no kind-hearted soul either.

Time passed quickly, and night fell in the blink of an eye.

Because business was booming today and the work was rather tiring, Master Lin decided to close up early and rest.

After the three of them ate the ordered boxed meals, they left one after another.

Fang Cheng stood outside the door, pausing to wait for a moment.

Seeing Wen Huiyi change her clothes and walk out carrying the remaining boxed meals, he asked:

"Sister Wen, how are you doing now?"

Wen Huiyi was stunned for a moment, thinking he was asking about her work situation, so she replied:

"I'm doing very well here, and Master Lin takes good care of me."

Fang Cheng glanced at her bloodless face, then weighed his words and said:

"I just... saw you vomiting in the restroom."

Wen Huiyi's expression changed abruptly, and she quickly explained:

"It's not what you think. I just heard that inducing vomiting can help with drug detoxification, so I wanted to try it out."

Hearing this, Fang Cheng was slightly startled, looking at her gaze which was much firmer than before.

Suddenly, he admired this seemingly frail woman for being able to reach this step.

A matter like drug rehabilitation extremely tested a person's willpower, and the torment that needed to be overcome was beyond ordinary people's imagination.

One could even say it was a hundred times more difficult than persisting in exercising early every morning.

Thinking for a moment, Fang Cheng looked at her with a soft tone:

"If there's anything you need help with, just tell me. We're all neighbors, don't stand on ceremony."

"Thank you, rest assured, even just for Wen Xin, I will definitely persevere!"

The cold wind blew apart the hair at her temples, and she tried her best to widen her eyes and bit her lower lip tightly.

Returning home.

Fang Cheng still felt somewhat hungry in his stomach.

So he casually cooked a pot of instant noodles, adding 5 eggs and two ham sausages.

Slurping the noodles, he recalled what he saw and heard today.

Judging from the news obtained from various places, there should be a batch of extremely powerful assassins in the Red Tiger Gang.

And they might very well be those legendary "monsters".

If it was truly as exaggerated as Brother Fei described, possessing the ability to be immune to blades and guns.

Then compared to them, Fang Cheng's current strength was probably still far behind.

"No mistakes, first release, inside content, check one by one!"

After all, he still couldn't manage to use a body of flesh and blood to resist bullets.

After finishing the instant noodles, Fang Cheng looked at the light blue screen floating before his eyes.

Then, after doing some brief housework, he took out the butterfly knife and continued his nightly practice of the Blade Technique.

No matter how strong the enemy was, as long as he could keep grinding experience and making continuous progress, sooner or later he would be able to surpass them all.

Jiangbei District Police Station.

At past 8 o'clock in the evening, it was still brightly lit here with figures hurrying past.

"Chief, multiple Gang-related collective brawl incidents occurred in our jurisdiction today."

"According to preliminary investigations, it is related to the two triad organizations, the Red Tiger Gang and the Three Wolves Gang. 7 people died on the spot, 65 people were injured and hospitalized, 21 people were brought back and are currently having their statements recorded, and many fish that slipped through the net escaped..."

"Yongnian, I am rest assured to leave this case to you, but under the current circumstances, I am also in a very difficult spot. Councilman Zhang just called, questioning whether we can maintain peaceful order in the Jiangbei area. I have a terrible headache right now."

"How about this, put the Red Tiger Gang case aside for now and don't waste your energy on it. Focus on following up on the serial killer case, and be sure to crack it as soon as possible."

"Yes."

Zhou Yongnian exited the office, gently closing the door, but his complexion appeared very gloomy, and his brows were tightly furrowed.

"Boss!", "Team Leader!"

Several police officers from the same team immediately stepped forward, excitedly telling him some good news.

"News just came from the hospital that Ah-Zhong has woken up, and Xiao-Ding is also out of danger!"

Hearing this, Zhou Yongnian let out a deep breath, his heart relaxing slightly.

Fortunately, that monster's primary target wasn't them, otherwise the two of them would probably have been in grave danger this time.

"Team Leader, do monsters really exist in this world?"

A puzzled voice sounded, and the one asking was a young police officer.

Zhou Yongnian didn't answer him directly, but instead said earnestly:

"After doing this line of work, you'll get used to things once you see more of them. The only advice I give you is to be cautious in your words and actions, and do things within your own capabilities..."

Then, looking at his subordinates whose atmosphere was slightly serious, he instructed:

"Everyone tidy up your current work, go back to rest early today, and tomorrow we'll visit Ah-Zhong and the others at the hospital together."

Hearing this, A-Bang couldn't help being somewhat stunned:

"The informants on the Red Tiger Gang's side have to be pulled out too?"

Zhou Yongnian nodded.

A-Bang instantly realized what the chief had probably talked about when calling the boss in earlier.

He pounded the case files on the table with some unwillingness.

He had originally expected to crack a larger malignant triad crime case and score more merits, but it fell through again.

He turned his head to look at the noisy statement-taking hall and the brought-in members of the Red Tiger Gang, cursing softly.

This bunch of scum was lucky; they could only be dealt with leniently.

Linggang District, Wu's Trading Company.

Inside the chairman's office.

Wu Shihao bowed slightly, holding the landline receiver in his hand, nodding and acknowledging from time to time:

"Yes, yes..."

"Gang Leader, please rest assured, I will handle this matter with all my might."

Even though the person on the other end of the receiver couldn't see his appearance, his expression and demeanor still appeared very respectful.

Because that was the leader of the Red Tiger Gang, whose name terrified the entire underworld of Dongdu.

After putting down the phone, Wu Shihao sat in the boss chair and took out a box of cigars.

His expression was extremely excited, but at the same time somewhat depressed.

What excited him was that the turf of the Three Wolves Gang was split into two, with half handed over to him to manage.

What depressed him was that the turf given to him consisted entirely of slums, with basically no fat profits to be made.

Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at a long-haired trusted subordinate standing behind him.

"Now that patch of turf in the old North Point district is also handed over to us to manage, after Sang Biao's death, do you have a recommended candidate?"

The long-haired man pondered slightly and replied:

"I think Madman Hui is acceptable. He is ruthless, capable of holding down the fort, and he was originally managing the human trafficking business for Sang Biao."

Wu Shihao knew that this candidate definitely had a close relationship with him, but didn't expose it.

"Then let Madman Hui take over. How to establish prestige and gain a firm foothold doesn't require me to teach him, right?"

"Brother Hao, rest assured, he is very sensible."

A trace of joy appeared on the long-haired man's face, and he hurriedly lit the cigar for Wu Shihao.

Wu Shihao half-squinted his eyes, took a puff of the cigar, slowly exhaled a wisp of smoke rings, and then said again:

"Also, although the Three Wolves Gang has been wiped out, the specific whereabouts of that hidden assassin haven't been found yet."

"As long as this person is not eliminated for a day, I will sit and sleep in anxiety. We must continue to track him down to the end."

"Yes, Brother Hao."

"According to the clues provided by the underlings, that assassin has appeared in Jiuchang Street multiple times. I think we just need to send more men to keep a close eye on that place..."

Inside the office, the two discussed how to root out the problem completely and eliminate future troubles forever.
