Chapter 227: Cockroach Qiang's Arrogance and Obsequiousness
Hong Kong Island, a fishing village.
A white man wakes from a coma.
He glances around the simple wooden hut, sees no one around, and quickly gets up to leave.
Half an hour later, he appears in a secluded alley, using a newly "borrowed" phone to dial a number.
"The mission failed, we were attacked on Hong Kong Island, Legov was taken by them."
"What?" The voice on the other end seems quite surprised, "Who attacked you!"
"A local group on Hong Kong Island."
"Why would they attack you?"
"No idea, I guess our cover was blown," the white man replies.
The other end falls into a brief silence before speaking again: "Wait for my orders."
...
Here, Qi Yun holding the interrogation drug Niu Dagang brought back, arriving once again at the room where Legov is held.
No idea what method Chen Wei used, but at this moment Legov looks extremely worn out, as if he can barely lift his eyelids.
Qi Yun hands over a small package box, Chen Wei takes it and opens it, extracting a small glass bottle filled with blue liquid and a syringe.
Legov's eyelids twitch, his gaze falling on the syringe, a look of panic appearing on his face for the first time.
However, Chen Wei doesn't give him a chance to react, immediately injecting the syringe filled with drug into his arm.
The moment the drug enters, Legov's body convulses violently, yet his eyelids forcefully open, pupils constricting like pinpoints due to the drug stimulus.
Half a minute later, he suddenly calms down again, the entire person seemingly entering some strange state, his gaze appearing somewhat vacant.
"This drug can stimulate the central nervous system, roughly lasting ten minutes," Chen Wei says, then steps aside.
Qi Yun nods slightly, steps forward to inspect Legov, and asks, "What's your name."
"Legov." Legov answers in a very small voice, seeming blurry but very cooperative, without any resistance.
Qi Yun continues to ask: "Who are you working for."
"De Gaulle... Charles de Gaulle Gwen."
Charles de Gaulle Gwen? Qi Yun murmurs the name softly.
"What's your purpose for coming to Hong Kong Island?"
"To... to the mainland, to surveil someone named Qi Yun..." Legov answers intermittently.
Upon hearing this, Qi Yun's heart skips a beat, indeed they came for him.
"Why are you surveilling him?"
"Don't... know... De Gaulle's orders... maybe related to the shipwreck..."
Qi Yun's brow furrows tightly, the most crucial issue the opponent surprisingly doesn't know, it seems the opponent is merely a subordinate doing the task, knowing little.
He pulls out his phone from his pocket, searching online for information about Charles de Gaulle Gwen, yet finds nothing.
At this moment, the room door suddenly opens, Hui Ge rushes in, glances at the still-dazed Legov, then speaks: "Brother Qi, Mr. Fu just called and he wants this guy."
"Mr. Fu?" Qi Yun shows suspicion.
Hui Ge nods: "You're not very familiar with Hong Kong Island, might not know Mr. Fu."
"He's quite influential on Hong Kong Island, not only closely connected with those high officials, even many group leaders dare not defy him."
Qi Yun listens, his eyelids jump, suspecting it's possibly that De Gaulle's doing.
It seems the opponent indeed wields great influence, able to quickly contact a bigwig on Hong Kong Island.
He ponders slightly, then replies: "Wait for me to make a call."
Hui Ge nods, somewhat helplessly says: "Sorry, Brother Qi, although I have some standing on Hong Kong Island, but I dare not offend Mr. Fu."
"I understand, Hui Ge don't worry," Qi Yun chuckles lightly, pats the other's shoulder, then heads outside to the restroom.
Just as he steps out, several more people enter the room consecutively.
The leader is burly, with a fierce face, a very noticeable scar on the right cheek.
Upon entering, he glances at Legov in the corner, then waves to the underlings behind him: "Take him."
"Stop!" Hui Ge suddenly shouts angrily, blocking the way, glaring at the leader, sternly says: "Cockroach Qiang, don't forget this is my territory, you dare to give commands here?"
The man called Cockroach Qiang sneers, mockingly looking at Hui Ge: "This is someone Mr. Fu wants, you dare defy Mr. Fu?"
Upon hearing "Mr. Fu," Hui Ge's momentum instantly diminishes a bit.
But he still bravely blocks there, grinding his teeth, says: "I dare not offend Mr. Fu, I can hand over the person to you, but you'll have to wait a few minutes."
Cockroach Qiang sneers: "Wait? Why should I wait for you? Take him away!"
With this command, several underlings step forward.
Chen Wei stands beside Legov, coldly watching the aggressive approaching men, he certainly won't let the opponent take Legov away, ready to act.
Just as he is about to move, Hui Ge suddenly blocks in front again, shouting sternly: "Cockroach Qiang! Don't push it! Don't think just because you're with Mr. Fu I won't dare touch you!"
Cockroach Qiang hears this, his smile broadens, yet looking terribly sinister.
He strides to Hui Ge's front, eyes filled with contempt.
The next moment, he suddenly raises his hand, pats Hui Ge's face, mockingly says: "Try touching me."
Hui Ge's body trembles, his gaze almost firing flames at the opponent...
His face turns ashen, molars grinding "creak creak," tightly clenched fists nearly embedding nails into flesh.
