Siheyuan: My wife is Xu Huizhen

Chapter 581

"This may be our last chance to survive. The fate of the entire team hangs on it. We must not miss even the tiniest clue."

Wei Wuji dragged his heavy steps and shouted hoarsely. His voice echoed in the empty corridor, mixed with the fatigue from running around for days and the helplessness in facing the difficult situation: "To be honest, I haven't been to Hong Kong very often. I have only been here twice before."

"The first time was when I came with my company team to attend an industry exhibition. It was very busy and the schedule was tight. Apart from the exhibition venue, I just took a quick look around the busiest commercial street."

"The second time was to discuss an important business deal. We went to several well-known hotels in the city, and all the contacts were in public places."

"As for the secret places hidden in the dark of this city, I am completely in the dark and know nothing about them."

Long before, Lin Wanting had already found the three senior brothers and explained everything to them in an earnest yet stern manner.

Her eyes were sharp and her voice was clear and firm, stating that as long as they were willing to pay the corresponding price, whether it was money, connections, or other things of equal value, she would spare their lives out of consideration for their past friendship.

Because of this, in this dark, damp and cramped prison cell, Wei Wuji suppressed his resentment and unwillingness, and appeared to be quite cooperative.

At this point, he knew better than anyone that he had become a prisoner and was in a difficult situation.

Outside the prison, the enemy is watching covetously, and his life is like a candle in the wind, which may be extinguished at any time.

Even if you manage to save your life in the end, if during this period you annoy the other party because of your non-cooperation and suffer endless torture and abuse, you will be the one who suffers in the end.

He looked up at the faint light coming through the narrow iron window of the cell, gritted his teeth, and told himself to hold his breath and wait for the opportunity, so that he could find a glimmer of hope.

If the crucial address information cannot be pried out from Wei Wuji, everything that has been done before will be like a dream, fleeting.

He used threats and inducements alternately, and his men searched every possible corner, consuming countless manpower and material resources. However, once the clue was interrupted here, all the efforts would be wasted, just like carrying water with a bamboo basket. In the end, nothing would be gained.

As for the three locations open to the public, Ye Han and others knew them clearly.

Long before that, they had carefully selected capable personnel, who went quietly to investigate carefully, searching inch by inch, leaving no possible corner untouched.

But the result was disappointing. The scene was deserted and lonely. Not to mention the key people or important objects we were looking for, we didn't even see any related shadows. It was a complete wasted trip.

Just when everyone was filled with anxiety and at a loss, He Hongshen sighed heavily with a helpless look on his face. With a hint of fatigue and despair in his voice, he slowly said, "In my opinion, we should just give up."

"It's obviously in vain to have searched so hard and yet to no avail."

"If we continue to search blindly like this, it will only be a waste of time and energy, and I'm afraid it will all be in vain in the end."

However, He Yuzhu was so stubborn that he couldn't swallow this insult easily.

He stood there, his brows twisted into the shape of a "川" character, thoughts racing through his mind, as if he was playing a game with an invisible opponent.

In a moment, his eyes flashed, and he made a decisive move with a wave of his hand, saying in a deep voice: "Take Wei Wuji away, and quickly find Liang Feixing for me!"

Speaking of Liang Feixing, this man has been dormant in the business world for many years. In his early years, he had an intersection with Gao Ke in the glamorous and treacherous business world.

Those unknown dealings, whether secret talks in hidden clubs or shady exchanges at smoky card tables, may hold the key to solving the current dilemma.

Soon, Liang Feixing was hurriedly brought before the crowd.

He looked up and saw that the atmosphere in the room was so heavy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it. The eyes of the people around him were hot and full of expectations, as if they wanted to see through him.

Liang Feixing's heart tightened, he dared not hide anything, and hurriedly spilled out all the secrets he knew, speaking as fast as a machine gun, for fear of missing even the slightest clue.

However, after hearing what Liang Feixing said, Ye Han's eyes that were originally full of hope dimmed in an instant. He shook his head in disappointment, his face full of loneliness, and sighed heavily, his tone full of helplessness: "Alas... Although these places are indeed extremely hidden and difficult for ordinary people to detect, we have just sent capable people to investigate carefully. As a result, the place has long been deserted. Not to mention people, there is not even a suspicious clue left. It is really a pity!"

When He Yuzhu heard the other party's reply, obvious disappointment instantly appeared on his face. His eyes, which were originally as bright as torches, now seemed to be covered by dark clouds and dimmed a little.

He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned slightly white from the force. He took a step forward unwillingly and asked, "Is there really no other place to choose from in such a huge city like Hong Kong?"

"Think about it carefully. Even an inconspicuous corner that is easily overlooked, or a place that you have heard someone mention by chance, will do!"

Liang Feixing, who was standing aside, had a face so solemn that it seemed as if water could be squeezed out of it.

His eyes were fixed on the ever-changing sky in the distance, as if he was trying to find a glimmer of hope.

His brows were tightly furrowed, and the wrinkles on his forehead were like deep ravines carved by time, each of which concealed unspeakable complex emotions.

After a long time, he shook his head slowly and heavily, and that movement seemed to carry a heavy burden.

Then, he opened his lips slightly, his tone firm but inevitably a little helpless, and slowly replied: "To be honest, in Hong Kong where every inch of land is valuable, suitable housing is scarce. After searching the entire real estate agency system, there are indeed no other suitable houses."

"He and I are just acquaintances. When we meet in social occasions, we just exchange a few pleasantries. We have very little interaction."

"When he approached me about renting a house, I had a hard time finding the right person. We are just a superficial acquaintance, so this is all I know."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu felt as if a basin of cold water was poured over his head. The blood in his body instantly solidified and his hands and feet lost all temperature.

He seemed to be nailed to the spot. The noise around him faded away in an instant. Only these words were like a heavy hammer, hitting his heart again and again.

All the doors of hope seemed to be slammed shut by an invisible and cold giant hand, and the harsh sound kept echoing in the empty heart.

Darkness, filled with thick despair, surged in from all directions and swallowed him whole in the blink of an eye, plunging him into the abyss of despair where there was no sunlight. There was endless nothingness under his feet and no light in front of his eyes. Confusion and helplessness overwhelmed him like a tide. He opened his mouth, but no sound came out. He was at a loss, not knowing where to go.

However, what was unexpected was that the other ship was openly equipped with guns.

These guns have been rubbed for a long time. Under the direct sunlight, the cold metallic luster reveals a chilling aura of having experienced many battles.

The sea breeze, carrying salt and humidity, made the tense confrontation even more serious.

In an instant, without any warning, a sharp gunshot suddenly pierced the sky. The sound was like a thunderclap out of nowhere, echoing between the sea and the sky, instantly breaking the atmosphere that was originally taut as a string, tense yet still maintaining a subtle calm.

Immediately afterwards, dense gunfire rang out like popping beans, and each bullet was packed with deadly force, like raindrops whistling down in a storm, sweeping wildly towards the bottom.

The bullet tore through the air at high speed, making a creepy sharp whistling sound, like a fatal roar from hell.

In just a moment, two of his men were unable to dodge and were unfortunately shot and injured with two painful groans.

Their bodies fell heavily to the deck, their hands tightly covering their wounds, rolling and groaning in pain.

Bright red blood gushed out from between his fingers, quickly spreading across the rough deck, creating a shocking pool of blood.

This carefully planned assault ended in a tragic failure amid the sudden hail of bullets.

The anger in everyone's hearts was like dry wood encountering a spark. It instantly burned fiercely, so hot that it seemed to ignite the surrounding air.

They seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, quickly gathering together and forming a tight circle.

The atmosphere at the scene was like solidified lead, so heavy that it was hard to breathe. Anger and anxiety were clearly engraved on everyone's face, and their brows were twisted into the shape of the Chinese character "川".

Everyone started to discuss the countermeasures one after another.

During the heated discussion, some people spoke loudly with red faces, while others frowned and thought slowly before expressing their opinions. Thoughts quickly blended in such a fierce collision.

Soon, a seemingly brilliant idea came into being: first carefully select a group of strong and courageous men, and let them attract the enemy's firepower from the front.

This group of people will undoubtedly face the enemy's dense hail of bullets, and every step forward will be accompanied by huge danger, making them the vanguard and bait of the entire plan.

At the same time, a group of people who are good at stealth and agility were selected from the team to go around the back of the flower boat.

They will take advantage of the cover of night to quietly and force their way onto the ship, catching the enemy off guard with a surprise attack.

The next thing to do is to finalize the candidates who will carry out these dangerous tasks. This decision concerns the lives and property of everyone and cannot be taken lightly. It must be made with extreme caution.

Everyone sat around in a solemn atmosphere. Time passed slowly in silence, and everyone was weighing the options in their minds.

After a long and in-depth discussion, the decision was finally made taking into account various factors such as combat capability, experience, and adaptability.

Ye Han and He Hongshen led their respective teams to launch a frontal attack.

Ye Han's team has always been known for its bravery and fearlessness. They have always been at the forefront in many past operations and have accumulated rich practical experience. They are able to respond quickly to the ever-changing situation on the front battlefield.

The team led by He Hongshen is famous for its strict discipline and strong ability to coordinate operations. They are good at maintaining formation in fierce confrontations and exerting maximum combat effectiveness.

The combination of the two is powerful enough to cope with the storm on the front battlefield.

The important task of attacking the ship from the back fell on the shoulders of three men: Liang Feixing, Wei Wuji and Xu Changfeng.

All the bosses present were old foxes who had experienced many years in the business world. They were well aware of the dangers of this operation, and no one was willing to put themselves in a life-and-death situation.

After a painful struggle on the scale of interests and lives, he had no choice but to turn his attention to the three captured people.

Liang Feixing is agile and good at sneaking in complex environments; Wei Wuji is quick-witted and good at adapting to changing circumstances; and Xu Changfeng has excellent kung fu skills.

The characteristics of these three people just match the stealth, flexibility and force required for a surprise attack from the back, making them the best candidates to carry out this mission.

He Yuzhu's face was solemn, his brows were furrowed, and his deep gaze swept over Liang Feixing, Wei Wuji and Xu Changfeng in turn.

He spoke slowly, his voice low but every word clear, and solemnly promised: "If you can successfully board the flower ship and complete the mission successfully, I will allow each of you to come up with a sum of money to redeem your precious life."

Recalling the past, the kind and beautiful Lin Wanting was filled with compassion. Her watery eyes were full of pleading as she pleaded for these three people.

However, He Yuzhu was ruthless and impartial. Even though he was touched in his heart, he never agreed to let them redeem themselves.

With He Yuzhu's own strong strength, he was not afraid at all when facing the enemy's guns and ammunition.

After years of struggling in this mixed world, he has acquired solid skills and is now fully confident.

He knew very well that even if he was alone, with his superb martial arts and extraordinary wisdom, he had the confidence to deal with the enemy and carve out a way to survive in the hail of bullets.

But at this moment, the situation was like the dead silence before a storm, extremely urgent.

The slightest mistake could lead to a complete loss like a domino effect.

This operation is of great importance. It not only concerns one's own safety, but also involves the lives of many brothers and the huge network of interests behind it. The most prudent and effective strategies must be adopted to ensure the success of the operation.

He Yuzhu had a lot of thoughts in his mind, many ideas flashed through his mind like a kaleidoscope, and he had his own careful calculations.

But he was a cautious person, and even if he was in turmoil, he never wanted to reveal any emotions or plans in front of outsiders.

He knew very well that in this dangerous environment, if he was not careful, he might be caught by the enemy and fall into an irretrievable situation.

Therefore, after a long period of careful consideration and weighing the pros and cons, he decided to adopt such a unique approach to resolve the current problem.
