Du Xu said, "Do you remember that team you wiped out? My parents were in it, but I didn't know it. Later, one of them, named Yang Jian, escaped, and I happened to run into him. After asking around, I found out that my parents were among them. Sun Shichao, do you think I can let this go unpunished?!"

Hearing this, I frowned. Du Xu hadn't said this to me yesterday!

That bastard was hiding it well!

Sun Shichao looked completely bewildered. If I were Sun Shichao, I would probably have the same expression. Who the hell would have thought there was such a connection involved?

I said to Du Xu, "You've kept this a secret for a long time."

Du Xu turned to look at me. "I had no choice but to keep it from you. It's mainly because you're not smart enough to think of this. Think about it, if I didn't have any conflicts with Sun Shichao and his group, do you think I would have agreed to your plan?"

I really want to strangle this bastard. "You're using someone else to do your dirty work."

Du Xu nodded. "That's right, I'm using someone else to do the dirty work. But you just said you wouldn't kill this pervert, so why don't you leave him for me?"

I had no objection: "You want to kill him with your own hands?"

Du Xu laughed and said, "That's right, you already know everything you wanted to know. And this pervert is simply an idiot. He had so many opportunities to use your questions to blackmail you into letting him go, but he didn't do it. He's incredibly stupid."

I was also wondering why Sun Shichao didn't try to blackmail me. Could it be that he was really stupid?

Du Xu took the pistol from my hand and pointed it at Sun Shichao's head.

Sun Shichao panicked completely this time and said, "Wait, wait, wait! You can't kill me! Lu Xiaonan, I know something else! About that junior high school student, the one you mentioned, Zhong Linyun! I know something else about her!"

I stopped Du Xu and asked, "What else do you know?"
