Chapter 627: 623. If I Don't Go, Someone Will Be Disappointed (Please Subscribe and Vote)
When Li Cheng and his team entered, they discovered that everyone had already vanished; the people from the War God Mercenary Group had disappeared with the corpse of Whale, leaving only a scene of chaos behind.
Li Cheng cast a glance around, then immediately said to Scorpion and the others, "Collect everything here and take it with you."
Although he felt somewhat unwilling in his heart at this moment, he had not forgotten Zhang Ran's instructions.
However, just as they were packing up, some others broke through the perimeter and entered; they had already learned of the situation, but they were still unwilling to leave without coming to take a look.
At the same time, there were also some people from Siweite's side; they had communicated with Li Cheng before, and although they hadn't acted together, they understood the situation to some extent.
"Is there anything that needs help?" a guy with a face full of tattoos asked.
Li Cheng took a look; there were quite a lot of things here, and although he didn't know exactly what Zhang Ran was looking for, he knew that taking it all away was the right thing to do.
Their own manpower was also somewhat insufficient, and it was crucial to spare a few people for protection; right now, many people had blood in their eyes, and who knew if someone would go crazy next.
Many people were rushing over now just to see if they could snatch the corpse of Whale from the War God Mercenary Group; after all, whoever obtained the corpse was the one who would be paid.
As for who killed him?
Is that important?
And besides, no one saw it with their own eyes, did they?
"Please help me take these things out, and at the same time, protect us as we withdraw." Li Cheng did not stand on ceremony.
These were people Zhang Ran had paid a price to hire.
The tattooed man didn't say much else, waving his hand to signal his men to start working.
Some who had originally harbored ulterior motives saw how many people Li Cheng had and tucked their crooked thoughts away.
Zhang Ran also received the news on his end.
"The person has been taken out by them; are you prepared to see the corpse with your own eyes, or will you view it via video?" the message from the other side read.
"Have them bring the person over, to this location." Zhang Ran immediately sent them a location.
"Good." The response from the other side was concise; after confirming the handover procedures, they cut off contact, and the rest began notifying the members of the War God Mercenary Group.
"Brother Zhang, let me go over and take a look," He Yong said.
He meant that he would go over to confirm it himself, so Zhang Ran wouldn't have to go; it was a bit risky.
Zhang Ran smiled and said, "If I don't go, how could they be satisfied?"
He Yong was stunned, then reacted and said, "Does Brother Zhang mean that Whale isn't dead?"
"There is a high probability; perhaps this is all a performance he is putting on, just for this final scene," Zhang Ran said noncommittally.
He always thought about things in terms of their complexity; as long as Whale wasn't killed by Li Cheng and his team, Zhang Ran wouldn't truly be at ease.
"Then you still want to go? Isn't this putting yourself in danger?" He Yong couldn't help but say.
Zhang Ran smiled and said, "If I don't go, Whale definitely won't be satisfied, and he will choose to break out rather than fight to the death.
Do you have the confidence to take him down when the time comes? Under the condition that he is determined to break out?"
Zhang Ran's words left He Yong silent; although he wanted to give a guarantee, he really couldn't, as no one could say for sure about such things.
Whale was no small fry; he had been lurking here for such a long time and had built things up so large, so his capabilities naturally could not be underestimated.
Even if they had made full preparations on their side, if Whale really wasn't dead and this was a trap, then he would certainly have made his own preparations as well.
"But this still isn't enough to make you take the risk," He Yong said.
Zhang Ran waved his hand and said, "Where is there a situation without any risk? Besides, I also want to learn some information from Whale's mouth; if I don't go, I suspect that even if you really caught Whale, he wouldn't talk."
This was the most important thing.
Seeing that Zhang Ran's mind was made up, He Yong didn't say anything more and began to make arrangements; this time, he needed to ensure there were no mistakes.
Zhang Ran, for his part, wouldn't be truly careless, so he immediately contacted the people in Sudan and had their government send people over.
The conditions Zhang Ran offered were enough to tempt Sudan, and this wasn't about money, but about Zhang Ran's status.
His investments here could represent many things.
Even the Richest Person in China, someone in the top ten of the world's richest list, was investing here, which proved that Sudan's investment environment was trustworthy.
Now, Zhang Ran's status as one of the top ten in the world's richest list was already recognized.
Therefore, Sudan satisfied Zhang Ran's requests as much as possible.
In just one day, He Yong turned the trading location into an impenetrable fortress, and at the same time, he achieved the ultimate level of security for Zhang Ran.
Of course, during this time, He Yong didn't truly withdraw the security from their current location; instead, he became even more cautious.
Zhang Ran guessed that Whale's death was fake, and since the probability was high, He Yong would arrange things as if it were one hundred percent certain.
By the next day, news came from the other side that the person was about to arrive.
Zhang Ran did not delay and went directly to the trading location.
Ares looked at the open space all around and the ruins of a factory in front of him, his eyes flickering incessantly.
"Boss, this place is too open, it's a bit..." a subordinate reported in a low voice.
There was almost nowhere to quickly take cover here; the only place was the ruins in front of them.
Once...
"Say no more; it will be like this. No one will throw their life away for a dead man," Ares said with a hidden meaning in his words.
The subordinate didn't say anything more upon hearing this.
Afterward, they saw He Yong bringing people over.
"Where is the person?" He Yong said with an expressionless face.
"Right in the car," Ares said calmly.
He Yong only took a glance and did not go to inspect it carefully; this was what Zhang Ran had instructed.
"Follow me, and hand over your weapons," He Yong said.
Ares's eyes flickered; He Yong's attitude surprised him greatly. He had expected He Yong to inspect very carefully, but he hadn't expected him to just take a look.
"Impossible. We will not hand over our weapons. What if you choose to renege on the deal?" Ares shook his head and refused.
I had thought He Yong would be angry, but who knew that He Yong simply nodded: "Since you are not at ease, then forget it."
Ares was completely bewildered by this; did he trust them that much?
At the same time, he was muttering in his heart, are these people fools? Or are they truly confident to this degree?
However, not having to hand over their weapons was the best choice, so Ares and the others began to enter, while simultaneously arranging for some people to guard the outside.
He Yong walked in front, not saying much, just quietly leading the way.
Very quickly they arrived at the place of the actual transaction; this was a very spacious area inside the factory, with basically no obstructions all around.
