Chapter 177: Any Extra Surprise?

Sure.

Jiang Cheng answered at once.

Gao Songbai felt a sudden joy, but still felt uneasy and asked again, "Big brother, you wouldn't deliberately agree with me, then after I lure the person here, tear down the bridge, would you?"

Jiang Cheng shook his head.

He thought to himself, of course it's to burn the bridge and kill to silence.

Could it be that he really lets you go?

Keeping promises is for the kind‑hearted; dealing with villains calls for using the villain's own methods.

"Alright, alright."

Gao Songbai answered with two affirmatives.

Even though his heart still doubted, there truly was no better solution.

Make the other party swear? If they truly intend to kill him, what good does an oath do?

He could only hope the other would keep the promise.

He pulled a mobile phone from his pocket, in front of Jiang Cheng, searched for a contact named Wan Yuliang, and then dialed the number.

Almost the next second, the call connected.

"Gao Team, what's up? Could there be a lead?"

A hurried voice came from inside.

"Hehe, indeed."

Gao Songbai let out a hearty laugh, "Just an hour ago, I received a call from one of my subordinates saying the murderer was hiding in Po Luozi Alley."

"What, Po Luozi Alley?"

Wan Yuliang was startled.

"That day we..."

"Exactly."

Gao Songbai nodded, "It's the place we came to that day; that guy lives right here."

Saying that, he glanced at Jiang Cheng in a flattering manner.

"He was hiding here all along; no wonder we couldn't find him!"

Wan Yuliang gritted his teeth and said.

He wished to tear the murderer who killed his mother to pieces.

Moreover, if the murderer has family, he won't spare them either! "Gao Team, I'm coming right away with people! Please don't alert the snake and scare the guy away."

"Hahaha, Yuliang, did you think I called you to have you come help me?"

"Gao Team, what do you mean?" Wan Yuliang's breathing suddenly grew rapid.

Could it be that Gao Team has already captured the person?

Thinking about it, that possibility does exist.

"Exactly. After a gunfight, we finally caught the murderer. He's now in that room with a hidden basement. That guy is formidable—he's not only a Force Warrior, his Gunmanship is also superb, and my men suffered heavy losses."

Gao Songbai sighed.

He mainly thought that when Wan Yuliang arrived later and saw the pile of corpses, doubts would arise.

If he doesn't come, he'll be the one who dies.

So he said it in advance.

"Is that so? I'm really sorry, Gao Team. Rest assured, for the dead I will pay out of my own pocket a compensation to their families," Wan Yuliang hurriedly said, "Especially you, Gao Team—because of my case you've worked hard these past few days. I'll come over later and bring a generous reward."

"?"

Gao Songbai heard this.

His heart felt like it was bleeding.

He wanted to say, "No, don't bring them over."

But he honestly agreed with his mouth.

"By the way, Gao Team, is the person still alive?"

Wan Yuliang's tone carried a hint of expectation.

After all, if they're dead, there's no proof of death.

If alive, he could interrogate, confirm without error, and he would torture the other to death just as he did with those few.

"Of course he's alive; otherwise I would have taken him to that house first instead of bringing him straight back to the police station. I'm waiting for you to come and hand him over to you."

Gao Songbai laughed, "Great."

Wan Yuliang let out a sigh and a smile appeared on his face.

"Gao Team, could you watch over it for a while? I'm going to the bank to get some money and then bring people over."

"Alright, be safe on the road."

"No problem, Gao Team, I'll be careful. Hanging up now."

A beeping sound came from the phone.

Gao Songbai also hung up, smiled at Jiang Cheng, and said in a self‑congratulatory tone, "Big brother, I've already made the call. You heard everything we just discussed. He'll be here soon, and not only that, he'll bring a large sum of money. Later, whether it's his men or his money, it's all yours! Now shouldn't you keep your promise and let me go?"

"Do you think I'm a fool?"

Jiang Cheng gave him a glance.

"If I let you go now, will you call him again?"

Gao Songbai was stunned, as if that made sense.

"No, big brother, I don't mean that. I can give you the phone, and I can swear to the heavens that after leaving here I will never call to inform him, nor will I ever send anyone to trouble you again."

Wait until they arrive, then we'll talk.

Okay, okay.

Gao Songbai nodded.

By the way, I have another question: where does Wan Yuliang live? Who else is in his family?

Upon hearing this, Gao Songbai felt a chill run through his body, and he looked at Jiang Cheng in fear.

Is he planning something?

Speak.

Jiang Cheng's voice was ice-cold.

Can you spare his family?

Gao Songbai trembled: "They, they don't know anything, they're innocent."

Bang!

Jiang Cheng felt a surge of anger, he struck the man's face with the gun butt, knocking him to the ground, and growled: "Tell me, is the Chen Hui family of four innocent?"

They're innocent, they're innocent, don't kill me, I'll talk, I'll say anything.

Gao Songbai burst into tears from fear.

They live in Siji Huayuan Xiaoqu, a high-end residential complex, building 26. I've been to his house for a meal; besides him, he has a wife and two children.

Jiang Cheng took a deep breath, suppressing the anger welling up in his chest.

He really wanted to smash this scumbag right then.

But later, when Wan Yuliang arrives, he'll definitely call him; if I kill him now, it'll be problematic if the truth comes out later.

You'd better not be lying to me.

No, no, big brother, I'm telling the truth, everything I say is true; if you don't believe me, I can take you there later, as long as you don't kill me.

Gao Songbai begged desperately.

The reason he is unwilling to divulge Wan Yuliang's address is...

It's not because he is kind-hearted or sympathetic toward his wife and children.

But because he, too, lives in the same residential complex!

On the other side, after hanging up, Wan Yuliang immediately called his superior, explained the situation, and the superior didn't stop him, readily agreeing.

After hanging up, Wan Yuliang's smile vanished completely.

Xiaoyong.

"Boss Wan," a lackey behind him asked respectfully.

Call Aqiang and the others, bring the gear, wait in the car, and later we'll go somewhere with me.

Yes! Boss Wan!

The lackey behind him immediately pulled out his phone and dialed the rest of the guys.

Wan Yuliang took a deep breath, restraining his impatience.

He really wanted to drive now to Po Luozi Alley and let that killer know what it means to have no way to live nor die! But before that, he had to go to the bank to withdraw some money.

Three hundred thousand probably wouldn't satisfy that person's appetite.
