Chapter 865: Kidnapping
Outside the door, Lin Chuan and his group had been waiting in the car since a little after eight in the evening, all the way till eleven thirty. Over three whole hours. Everyone in the car had nodded off and fallen asleep.
"They're here!" Zhou Kai suddenly shouted.
Crash...
Everyone woke up startled.
"Where?" Lu Dapao quickly asked.
"They're coming out," Zhou Kai shouted hastily.
Indeed, the Yoshino family appeared from the cabaret hall with four bodyguards. This time, Yoshino was dressed, but his steps seemed a bit unsteady, likely due to having drunk alcohol and played with women, making his gait somewhat unstable. Two bodyguards assisted him on either side. The bodyguards helped him into the car. Then, the car started immediately and headed back to their fishery.
Zhou Kai quickly started the car and rushed out of the darkness. Comparatively speaking, the Odyssey was more compact and had a nimbler body. Like a ghost, it quickly vanished into the night.
The Alfa sped along the road, rushing straight towards the fishery, crossing the Fukuoka Bridge and heading directly southwest towards the Fukuoka Fishery.
The journey was through bustling streets, not a place for ordinary action. Once over the bridge, the area suddenly became sparsely populated, and the city lights were noticeably fewer.
"Catch up!" Lin Chuan shouted.
Roar...
The car let out a series of tearing roars.
Soon, the car darted forward rapidly, not only that, but the body slammed into the Alfa's left headlight, quickly shooting forth and blocking the front of the Alfa.
Screech...
The Alfa car emitted a fierce braking sound immediately. The car promptly came to a halt.
"Hey, you damned idiot, how are you driving?" The driver stuck his head out of the car.
At this point, the Odyssey's doors suddenly swung open, and people quickly jumped out. Lin Chuan, along with Zhou Kai and the others, swiftly rushed forward.
The opponent was evidently still unaware of why this group had come. The driver glared angrily at them: "Idiot, are you in a hurry to die?"
Bam!
Lin Chuan struck a punch over.
Thud...
A burst of blood sprayed out, and then, the driver collapsed limply.
Crash...
The Alfa's doors opened, and several bodyguards immediately rushed down. Tall and strong-bodied, a few of them blocked Lin Chuan and the others, shouting: "You damn idiots, you dare hit people? Do you want to die? Do you know who's in the car?"
"Yoshino family?" Lin Chuan asked coldly.
Gasp...
The bodyguards inhaled sharply; the opponent knew the people in the car were from the Yoshino family, which meant they came prepared. In other words, this was not just a simple car accident but a plotted kidnapping. The bodyguards immediately calmed down.
"Are you here to kidnap Mr. Yoshino?" the lead bodyguard asked.
"That's right." Lin Chuan nodded.
Zhou Kai and the others still didn't understand much Japanese, but they just managed to catch the opponent saying "baka".
The bodyguard scornfully said, "You're looking to die."
"I'll give you one minute to get lost," Lin Chuan glanced at the bodyguards and said, "Otherwise, don't expect to leave here unharmed."
"When you're paid to protect, you can't run away," the bodyguard laughed.
"You choose your own path!" Lin Chuan said, waving his hand.
Zhou Kai and the others had been impatiently waiting; six of them charged forward. An intense brawl ensued between the two sides. The opposing side had five bodyguards, while Zhou Kai's group had six people. Although in numbers they had the advantage, Zhou Kai and his crew were slightly lacking in strength compared to the opponents.
The opponents' bodyguards were fully engaged, Lin Chuan smiled calmly and walked slowly towards the Alfa.
Yoshino family held a cigar in hand, asked coldly: "Who sent you? I'm willing to pay double."
"That's not necessary," Lin Chuan said disdainfully, "today I came to discuss something with you."
"What is it?" Yoshino family immediately took a breath upon hearing, if it's a negotiation, it means there's room for compromise.
"Can you hand over the Fukuoka Fishery to me?" Lin Chuan asked with a smile.
Gasp...
The Yoshino family suddenly took a deep breath, his pupils instantly shrinking.
The Fukuoka Fishery is almost considered the lifeblood of the Yoshino family. If it is taken away, how would he survive? How would he support more than two hundred subordinates? The Yoshino family suddenly exploded with anger: "Kid, don't push me too far. Do you know what this fishery means to me?"
"It's just a fishery, after all," Lin Chuan smiled indifferently and said, "If you're not alive, then that's when you truly have nothing."
"Are you threatening me?" The Yoshino family looked coldly at Lin Chuan.
"I wouldn't dare!" Lin Chuan shook his head and said, "How could I dare threaten you? After all, your Hundred Rivers Association is considered the fifth biggest gang in Fukuoka. I heard you have over two hundred men under you. Is that true?"
"Of course!" The Yoshino family looked proudly at Lin Chuan, his small eyes seeming to say, Kid, are you scared now? If you're scared, you should hurry up and leave.
Lin Chuan looked at the other with disdain and said, "Now I'll give you two choices: do you want the fishery or your life?"
"Are you forcing me to choose?" The Yoshino family took a puff of his cigar.
"Indeed!" Lin Chuan nodded.
At this moment, the Yoshino family suddenly pulled out a black pistol, aiming it at Lin Chuan, his lips curling into a proud smile, "How about now?"
The Yoshino family was inherently timid and afraid of trouble, so he always carried a pistol with him. This pistol was his life-saving tool. When encountering any situation, at least he could hold off for a while.
The Yoshino family thought Lin Chuan would retreat in the face of difficulty; after all, countless people wanted to get at his fishery every day.
However, to the Yoshino family's disappointment, Lin Chuan didn't show any fear, instead, he laughed calmly, "Do you think a gun can scare me away?"
"Kid, aren't you afraid of death?" The Yoshino family roared angrily.
"I fear death, but your gun poses no threat to me." Lin Chuan laughed eerily.
The Yoshino family looked at Lin Chuan's strange gaze, clearly distracted for a moment.
Click...
Suddenly, Lin Chuan reached out like lightning and firmly grasped the other's wrist. The immense strength instantly dislocated the Yoshino family's wrist. The gun in his hand immediately fell to Lin Chuan's feet.
"Ah!!" The Yoshino family screamed in pain.
Lin Chuan leisurely picked up the black pistol from the ground, ejecting the clip, which was filled with copper-colored bullets.
Click click!
Lin Chuan loaded the chamber, and a bullet was immediately chambered.
"You forgot to chamber the bullet just now." Lin Chuan smiled and said, "But now I've chambered it for you."
After speaking, Lin Chuan pointed the black gun at the Yoshino family's head.
"Don't, don't!" The Yoshino family's cowardly nature immediately showed. He covered his head with his hands, fearfully saying, "Don't kill me, I'll give you whatever you want."
"First have your bodyguards stop," Lin Chuan said.
Outside the car, several bodyguards were firmly keeping Zhou Kai and others suppressed with their strong skills. Although Zhou Kai and the others were striving hard, their strength was slightly inferior when facing the opponents.
"Stop, you idiots, stop!" The Yoshino family shouted hysterically. The gun was pointing at his forehead, yet those foolhardy bodyguards were still entangled with the opponents. It's no wonder the Yoshino family is angry; he paid them to ensure his safety, not to start fights.
Several bodyguards were stunned and stopped one after another.
Zhou Kai and his people had taken a few hits, were bruised and bleeding, and naturally weren't willing to suffer.
"Damn!" Zhou Kai roared, swinging a punch and fiercely punching at the opponents. After a few rounds, the bodyguards were each dealt a blow and got bruised in turn. Lu Dapao spat angrily, "These bastards, hit me so hard."
Lu Dapao touched his swollen cheekbone, and his right eye was surrounded by bruises.
"Tie them up and take them away," Lin Chuan instructed.
Zhou Kai and his team decisively took ropes from the car and tied up the bodyguards, then loaded them into the car. Lu Dapao drove the Alfa away from the scene quickly, heading straight towards the Fukuoka Fishery in the Hundred Rivers District.
Fukuoka Fishery is somewhat remote, but this fishery has brought prosperity to a large area.
The fishery is right by the port; every day, fishing boats returning from the sea need to dock, and there are hundreds of companies and businesses engaged in the fishery industry. The Yoshino family not only collects considerable management fees from them every year, but also has an even more outrageous practice: the fish caught by fishermen from outside must be sold to him at a low price, and these hundreds of companies must obtain goods from him. In this way, the Yoshino family not only earns millions of US Dollars in management fees every year but also monopolizes the fish market, making tens of millions of US Dollars annually. Such easy fast money flows into one's pocket continuously. Who wouldn't want to earn more?
Like the sand market, the fishery makes money through monopoly. Only through monopoly can one obtain the maximum profit.
Arriving at the fishery, the Yoshino family was thrown into his office, and Zhou Kai and the others brought his bodyguards in one after another. The security personnel working outside the fishery were stunned, not knowing what happened, why their boss was tied up and returned to his office?
Inside the office.
"Yoshino family, I'll give you a few minutes to think about it. Will you give me the fishery or what?" Lin Chuan asked.
"Brother, can we talk about it nicely?" The Yoshino family said awkwardly: "How about... I give you part of the shares, okay? Every year you can earn a lot of cash from the fishery. As for the ownership of the fishery, I think my management experience is richer."
