Chapter 322
Tang Anqi's beautiful eyes widened, her face full of disbelief.
This guy... is he really that powerful?
He effortlessly subdued a sturdy man!
She thought he was just an ordinary rich second generation, but now it seems his identity is not so simple. Remembering that night, when the strong man saw him, the look of fear in his eyes; could he also be involved in the underworld?
Dealing with this guy means getting involved in their gang's conflicts!
Thinking of this, she shivered and started to feel scared, no wonder he was so rogue...
"Hey! Can I leave now? What about the rest of the money? It's time to settle it!"
Tang Anqi said quietly, her tone much more polite.
"Just wait a bit!"
Xia Bei glanced at her, propped Luo Biao onto the sofa, then opened a medicine bottle, took out a pill, and forced it into his mouth.
In case nothing useful was extracted, he would have to cover this up, otherwise, it would alert Zhao Tianhua.
"Well... alright then!"
Tang Anqi said weakly, standing to the side, not daring to make a sound. As she watched his actions, she felt both curious and a bit scared.
After a while, Xia Bei pinched Luo Biao's body, and he groggily opened his eyes, looking dazed as if sleepwalking.
The hallucinogen was taking effect.
"What's your name?"
"What's your boss's name?"
Xia Bei began to inquire, starting with some simple questions to ensure there were no issues, then proceeded to ask about that incident from years ago, questioning if they were the ones who committed the murder and where the body was buried.
Hearing about murder and a body, Tang Anqi almost screamed, hurriedly covering her mouth, her face pale.
In her eyes, this bastard became even more terrifying!
And thinking about how she had lied to him, she felt immensely anxious and fearful!
"It was... Brother Zhao who did it. That guy was ignorant and insisted on reporting us. He didn't want the money, and threats didn't work either. Brother Zhao got angry and did it, using a sledgehammer, smashing his head."
"As for the body... it was buried when a school nearby was having athletic fields constructed, and we just buried the body there. Later, when the police investigated, they never thought to look there."
Luo Biao spelled it all out.
Xia Bei listened, clenching his fists, seething with rage.
Zhao Tianhua's group was truly heinous; they killed someone, yet remained at large, living so freely!
After asking for more details and recording everything, Xia Bei thought for a moment but decided to tell Big Policewoman Qin, because he didn't know who else was trustworthy, and she would certainly know.
Making him faint, Xia Bei went into the bathroom and sent the recording to Qin Shuang.
"How did you get this?"
Qin Shuang quickly responded, very shocked and a bit skeptical about the authenticity of the recording.
Xia Bei just said he used some methods.
"Okay! I believe you. I know who to find. Actually, the higher-ups have long wanted to take down Zhao Tianhua's gang, but they lacked evidence, along with some internal resistance. If we can find that body, everything will be straightforward, and Zhao Tianhua won't escape."
After a while, Qin Shuang replied.
She had witnessed his medical skills and knew he was not an ordinary person, so she chose to believe him.
"That... I don't want the money anymore, can I leave?"
After finishing the conversation, he saw Tang Anqi approach, head lowered, her body trembling, showing her inner fear and anxiety, "The fifty thousand I took earlier, I can give it all back to you; I don't want a penny of it!"
She was just too scared!
This guy was definitely not normal, and among those thugs, he might be a very formidable and terrifying figure, especially since they talked about murder earlier, and she, a simple university student, had no desire to get involved in such terrifying matters!
She also didn't want any further association with him!
Xia Bei was stunned, looking at her in surprise.
Wasn't she quite money-obsessed and greedy? Now she's giving up the money?
"Wait, I'll give it back to you right away, just let me leave. I need to go back," Tang Anqi stammered again in fright, locking eyes with him, now finding his gaze terrifying!
Looking at her extremely fearful appearance, Xia Bei showed a playful smile at the corner of his mouth, knowing she'd been frightened by his methods, thinking he was some terrifying figure!
The more afraid she was, the more he wanted to tease her a bit.
"Go back? What are you going back for?"
Xia Bei deliberately put on a cold face and took a step forward.
Tang Anqi immediately retreated back, bumping into the wall, her pretty face turning pale, her whole body trembling, "You... what are you going to do? You promised, I just brought him over as you asked, you can't harm me..."
Xia Bei was taken aback.
This woman, did she think he was going to kill her to silence her?
Was she overthinking it!
"Please, I'll give you the money back, just let me go! I'll definitely keep it a secret." Tang Anqi pleaded, her beautiful eyes clouded with tears, "That day was my fault; I shouldn't have lied to you. I know I was wrong; can you forgive me, please?"
Xia Bei kept a stern face, making a seemingly cold demeanor, but inside, he was laughing.
This woman, she's a bit too naive!
Originally, he was going to let her leave, but as his gaze swept over, taking in her curvaceous and proud figure, then downward to her slim and attractive perfectly shaped legs wrapped in sheer black silk, a seductive allure, he swallowed hard, feeling a surge of desire from his lower abdomen, and even had a physical reaction, pitching a tent, which caused Tang Anqi to tremble violently and burst into tears, feeling on the brink of collapse...
