Chapter 144 Old Acquaintance
Feng Tianning looked at him seriously:
"The caning is for the little devils who make mistakes. Ordinary people can't bear it."
"After receiving the punishment, you can only live for seven more days at most. After seven days, you will be thrown into the eighteen levels of hell."
Zhang Pingjia's face turned pale in an instant, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
After a long while, he finally spoke:
"I was caned three days ago. Doesn't that mean I only have four more days to live?"
Zhang Pingjia stripped off his clothes like crazy, revealing his smooth back, with a hint of hope in his eyes:
"I don't have any wounds on my body, so I won't be like Xi Fangping, right?"
But seeing Feng Tianning's hesitant expression, the light on Zhang Pingjia's face dimmed little by little.
He moved his lips but couldn't utter a word for a long time.
"Caning is a punishment for the soul. Your body won't be in any trouble, but your soul will have been shattered into pieces."
Feng Tianning looked at him with some reluctance, raised his hand and lightly tapped Zhang Pingjia's eyebrows.
"I have locked your soul. Even the King of Hell cannot take you away."
"But this is only temporary. You can no longer stay in the mortal world. Once your obsession dissipates, I will send you to reincarnation."
She looked at Zhang Pingjia solemnly and said:
"Don't worry, once we get to the bottom of this, neither you nor your sister will go to hell."
Zhang Pingjia's pale face finally looked better and he looked at her with gratitude.
"Inspector Feng, as long as I can avenge my sister, I am willing to pay any price."
The car stopped in the middle of the winding mountain road.
"There are bodyguards everywhere. If we drive, we'll be too conspicuous. We'll probably be arrested before we even reach the villa."
"Inspector Feng, please come up with me."
Feng Tianning nodded and followed Zhang Ping's family.
Soon, a castle-like villa appeared before them.
Zhang Pingjia hurriedly pulled Feng Tianning to the side of the bushes and squatted down, lowering his voice and saying:
"This is where he imprisoned my sister. From what I know, there are many other girls imprisoned there."
Feng Tianning's gaze fell on the group of bodyguards guarding the outermost area.
Only then did I realize that they were not ordinary people but cultivators, and their cultivation level was generally at the Golden Core stage.
These people surrounded the villa and patrolled in circles like guards.
"They were the ones who broke my legs."
Zhang Pingjia looked at these people with gritted teeth, wishing he could just rush up and tear them to pieces.
"Is he in there now?"
Zhang Pingjia glanced at the time and said:
"Supposedly, it's there."
Feng Tianning nodded and made a gesture to stand up, which frightened Zhang Pingjia greatly.
But even when she walked in front of the bodyguards, they still didn't react, as if they couldn't see her.
Feng Tianning looked back at Zhang Pingjia in confusion and pulled him up.
"Let's go in and take a look."
Zhang Pingjia looked at the bodyguards, his legs shaking constantly, and he was unable to speak at this moment.
Fortunately, the bodyguards acted as if they didn't see them and patrolled around the villa.
Zhang Pingjia swallowed his saliva and realized in his heart that this was Feng Tianning's magical power - the legendary invisibility technique.
They walked quietly to the door and were about to go in when the hum of a car interrupted their movements.
Feng Tianning and Zhang Pingjia looked back and found a black car parked not far away. The bodyguards outside immediately surrounded it respectfully.
A woman and a child got out of the car surrounded by a crowd of people.
Feng Tianning narrowed his eyes and looked at the woman with a more complicated look.
The two were acquaintances.
After she had resolved the matter in Sakura Country, she met a mother and son on the plane returning home.
The woman said that her husband was a senior leader in charge of the Northwest, and she also declared in front of everyone that there was no such department as the Special Case Team.
The two people who got out of the car were the mother and son she met that day.
"Why are you calling us here so urgently? What happened?"
Jiang Chun frowned and looked at the bodyguard with anger.
"Ma'am, the boss is waiting for you inside."
The bodyguard didn't answer her, but gestured for people to come in.
Jiang Chuntao glanced at the bodyguard in front of her, snorted coldly, and walked in.
Zhang Pingjia pulled the still dazed Feng Tianning over and followed Jiang Chuntao into the villa.
When the door closed, they could see the inside of the villa clearly.
Famous paintings and antiques are displayed everywhere, and there is not even a single empty space in the huge living room, which is enough to show how much the owner here loves luxury.
"Madam, please wait a moment. The boss is still in the basement."
When Zhang Pingjia heard the word "basement", he clenched his fists, his eyes were bloodshot, and he wanted to rush out and tear the people in the villa to pieces.
"He would lock the girls he bought in the basement, keeping them from seeing the sun and forcing them to beg for mercy like dogs."
There were tears in Zhang Pingjia's eyes.
"My sister died in the basement."
Feng Tianning didn't say anything, but patted his shoulder soothingly.
I don’t know how long it took, but the “big shot” still didn’t show up, and Jiang Chuntao was getting restless sitting on the sofa.
"What on earth does Xixian mean? He called Xiaoxing and me over but didn't show up himself."
"Don't think I don't know what's in the basement. If it weren't for consolidating his position, I wouldn't deal with those people for him."
Jiang Chuntao kept complaining, and soon Xi Xian came out from a hidden corner.
He naturally took the silk scarf from the butler's hand and slowly wiped the bloody dagger. The butler beside him did not react at all, as if he was accustomed to this kind of situation.
"Wife, why are you so anxious? Can't I run away?"
Xi Xian casually threw the dagger on the table and looked at Jiang Chuntao in a flattering manner:
"Back then, the higher-ups were investigating very strictly, so my cooperation with the Sakura people had to be interrupted. As a result, you and your son had to hide away."
"Now the situation has improved, our cooperation has resumed, and endless prosperity and wealth await us in the future."
Jiang Chuntao snorted coldly and said with disdain:
"I've already said that the Sakura people are unreliable. Now they've created some zombies and made such a big fuss. Are they worried that our Jiang and Xi families will have no chance of survival?"
A hint of impatience flashed in Xi Xian's eyes, but considering that Jiang Chuntao was the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, he still spoke patiently:
"Last time it was an accident. We didn't expect the special case team to catch us. This time it's different. We will leave the country immediately after we finish the job and won't give them the chance to catch us."
Jiang Chuntao seemed to have thought of something and patted her chest in fear.
"Fortunately, the Qinling incident didn't bring us down, otherwise we would be in trouble."
"When I first returned to China, I met agents from the special case team. I wanted to play it off and say there was no such organization, but I didn't expect them to appear in the public eye so quickly."
