Chapter 2352: A Big Shot Comes Knocking
After Ye Chen said this, the two of them were already drenched in cold sweat.
Ma Kui swallowed hard and asked subconsciously, "Mr. Ye, you... you came all the way to Mexico just to inspect us?"
Ye Chen retorted, "Who told you I came alone?"
The two of them looked even more nervous upon hearing this.
Ye Chen pointed to Lang Hongjun beside him and said indifferently, "Didn't we come together?"
Ma Kui froze, then began to tremble uncontrollably where he stood.
It would have been better if Ye Chen hadn't mentioned Lang Hongjun; mentioning him made Ma Kui even more panicked.
Because he had already obtained Lang Hongjun's information, he could conclude that Lang Hongjun was kept in the dark.
However, Ye Chen had been able to come over with him, and they had even met on the plane, which proved that Ye Chen had long since figured out their plan and knew they were going to target Lang Hongjun, which was why he had deliberately approached him and come here.
Thinking of this, he was terrified to the extreme.
Only then did he understand why people always said that high-end hunters always appear in the eyes of their true prey in the guise of prey.
It seemed like he had picked up a big bargain, but he didn't expect that everything was under someone else's control.
It could even be said that this was the result someone else truly wanted.
It reminded him of the methods Africans used to catch wasps.
They would first take a piece of meat to make the greedy wasp think it had found prey, and then the wasp would carry it away, but it wouldn't know that the hunter had attached a light feather to it while it was tearing at the meat.
In this way, the hunter would follow the feather to find the wasp's nest and wipe them all out. They would kill the adult wasps and throw the pupae from the nest into a pot to be boiled or deep-fried.
In short, once tracked to the nest by a hunter, it meant the destruction of the entire nest.
He couldn't help but ask Ye Chen, "Mr. Ye, are... are you planning to recruit us?"
Ye Chen said indifferently, "Whether I recruit you or not depends on your strength and sincerity. So, you'd better call your boss and have him come over for a face-to-face talk with me."
Ma Kui thought for a moment and said respectfully, "Mr. Ye, please wait a moment. I'll go up and call our boss."
Ye Chen said coldly, "Do you have to go up just to make a call? Make it right here."
Ma Kui explained hurriedly, "Mr. Ye, you might not know, but there is a signal jammer here, so the phone won't go through. I have to go up and use the landline to call our boss."
Ye Chen waved his hand lightly and urged, "Be quick, go and come back fast."
"Alright!" Ma Kui nodded, gave A-Liang a wink, and the two of them ran out in a panic.
Once they reached the surface, A-Liang couldn't help but ask Ma Kui, "Ma Uncle... who... who exactly is that guy..."
Ma Kui slapped him across the face and cursed, "Regardless of who he is, you're the one who brought him here! If this guy has bad intentions, it'll be a miracle if the boss doesn't kill you."
"This can't be blamed on me, Ma Uncle..." A-Liang said with a mournful face, "I reported it to you at the time, and you agreed. How can you dump all the blame on me now?"
Ma Kui said coldly, "You don't need to talk nonsense with me now. The most urgent thing is to report the situation to the boss."
A-Liang asked again, "Ma Uncle, do you think that guy is really that awesome? Is his card real?"
Ma Kui said seriously, "It must be real. The texture of that thing doesn't feel like something that could be forged, and this guy knows our background and even our movements. He must have investigated us long ago."
A-Liang asked nervously, "He couldn't be a cop, could he?"
"Impossible..." Ma Kui waved his hand, "How could a cop play this kind of game? This guy looks like someone who has been through big storms. We have so many people and so many guns, yet he doesn't lose his composure at all, and he even scared me until my legs were shaking. Do you think that's the kind of psychological quality a cop would have?"
Saying this, Ma Kui looked around and added, "I now seriously suspect that this guy's people have already secretly surrounded us, only we can't see them."
A-Liang became even more nervous upon hearing this. He looked left and right and said, "By the way, Ma Uncle, did you see how he broke the zip-tie just now? I didn't see it at all... That thing is so strong, even a cow couldn't break free from it, right?"
Ma Kui said blankly, "I don't know either. Anyway, this person is extremely wealthy, extremely confident, and extremely courageous. His background is absolutely not simple, and he is definitely not someone you or I can afford to provoke. Maybe he really wants to recruit the entire 'Crazy Juarez', and if that's the case, it might actually be a good opportunity..."
Saying this, Ma Kui added, "Even if he really has bad intentions, we must not provoke him. Let the boss decide when he gets here."
"Makes sense..." A-Liang wiped his sweat and said, "Let the boss make the decision. This whole thing is just too damn weird..."
The true superior behind Mei Yuzhen was this criminal group entrenched in northern Mexico, named "Crazy Juarez".
The reason for such a middle-school name was that the boss of this criminal group was named Juarez.
Unlike the low-key and introverted character of the Chinese, Westerners particularly like to put their own names into their enterprises, whether it's as big as Boeing aircraft or as small as Dyson vacuum cleaners; they all use the founder's own name.
Even a clothing brand started by two homosexual partners has to have both of their names added.
In China, this kind of thing is rare.
But in the West, it's almost everywhere.
Therefore, even a criminal group has to use the boss's name as the name of the entire group.
And this Mexican criminal group named Crazy Juarez didn't even rank in the top five in terms of power in Mexico.
But the evil they committed was no less than that of any other criminal group in Mexico.
In order to make as much money as possible, this group committed all kinds of crimes, from manufacturing, smuggling, and selling contraband to kidnapping, extortion, and assassination.
And the illegal organ trade was a large part of the business within this criminal group.
Moreover, what was even more outrageous was that this criminal group didn't just simply resell organs; they specifically deceived bottom-level people struggling to survive in the U. S. and Canada, tried every means to trick them into Mexico, harvested their organs, and finally destroyed the bodies.
Because there were too many criminal groups in Mexico and too many murders, neither the local police nor the U. S. and Canadian police could do anything about them.
As a result, this organ-trafficking business became a low-risk, high-return, cost-free business for them.
They had been doing this kind of business for many years, and every year it grew compared to the previous one, and they had never had any trouble after doing it for so many years.
At this moment, Juarez himself was hugging his hot Mexican girlfriend, having a great time at an underground casino in Ensenada.
He had good luck tonight and had won a full 200,000 USD at the gambling table.
Just as he was having a great time, his subordinate Ma Kui called.
He was just about to open his cards and felt a bit annoyed looking at the phone vibrating on the gambling table, so he answered and asked coldly, "Why are you calling so late?! Don't you know I'm gambling?"
Ma Kui said hurriedly, "Boss, there's a situation at the operating room. A big shot has come knocking..."
