In his previous life, Wang Qian did not hesitate to abandon his family and children to escape the cage of the countryside, not returning for ten years.
However, for the rest of his life, he l...
"Boss, don't you trust me?"
Tao Yu panicked instantly and hurriedly explained, "I was just stating the facts and absolutely did not mean to target Second Brother. Boss, please understand!"
"Stop talking nonsense, what other evidence do you have? Just say it all at once!"
Scarface waved his hand impatiently, saying meaningfully, "I won't wrong an innocent person, but I will absolutely not let a traitor who betrayed his own brothers get away with it!"
Tao Yu trembled slightly, and said in a flustered and helpless manner, "Boss, my loyalty is as clear as heaven and earth, as clear as the sun and moon..."
"Let's get down to business!"
Before he could finish his solemn oath of loyalty, he was interrupted by Scarface's angry shout.
"Uh... okay."
Tao Yu nodded and said, "For a long time, you've been putting Second Brother in charge of a lot of business, and one of them is dealing with people from the legitimate world, right?"
"Hmm, and then?" Scarface Cannon pressed.
“From what I understand, my second brother and some police officers frequent places of entertainment together, and they even call each other brothers. Their relationship seems to be better than his relationship with you, Boss. So I'm worried…”
At this point, Tao Yu hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
However, Scarface wasn't stupid; he could easily understand what Tao Yu was trying to say.
Because of his long-term dealings with police officers, and their fraternal relationship, Zuo Xianglong, whom he regarded as a brother, may have already changed his mind and no longer regard him as his elder brother.
He had seen too much about the fickle nature of human beings when he was wandering the world in his early years.
Back then, he had more than a dozen brothers who would risk their lives for him, but they parted ways along the way for various reasons, leaving only the second brother, Zuo Xianglong, in the end.
Although Zuo Xianglong persisted to the end, who can say for sure that Zuo Xianglong won't change after they've been entrenched in West Street for so many years?
"Besides what you just said, do you have any other solid evidence?"
After a moment's hesitation, Scarface continued to ask.
Tao Yu's analysis was indeed logical, but it was ultimately just reasoning and speculation. Without solid evidence, he couldn't possibly draw any conclusions.
After all, they had been brothers for many years. If he were to question Zuo Xianglong's loyalty because of this, and it turned out to be a misunderstanding, their brotherhood would suffer an irreparable rift, which was an outcome he did not want to see.
"Boss, I...I know I was wrong!"
Tao Yu suddenly seemed to realize something and wailed, "I shouldn't have doubted my second brother, it was my fault, I shouldn't have said those things just now. Boss, please pretend I didn't say anything, please let me go!"
As he spoke, he slapped himself a few times.
Scarface frowned slightly, and a surge of anger inexplicably rose on his face.
"Boss, I really know I was wrong. Please give me another chance. I promise I won't talk nonsense again next time!" Tao Yu continued to plead.
"Alright, let's leave it at that!"
Scarface waved his hand, "Don't tell anyone about this, or you know the consequences!"
"I know, I know!"
Tao Yu nodded his head vigorously, like a chick pecking at rice. "I will definitely keep my mouth shut and won't utter a single word!"
Then, his eyes darted around, and he hesitated, "But boss, I'm going to complain to you about this today. Many brothers already know about it. If they press me for an explanation, what should I say?"
Scarface frowned.
This is indeed a problem.
After all, there were more than a dozen people here just now, and they all seemed to be full of hostility towards Tao Yu.
Once Tao Yu leaves here, he will definitely be surrounded and interrogated by those people.
These people won't give up until they get an explanation.
He really didn't want to reveal what Tao Yu had just said, otherwise it might cause internal strife.
"I have a way to not only deflect the conflict with you, but also conceal our real conversation from just now. But you must cooperate, or you'll be the next one to get into trouble!"
Upon hearing this, Tao Yu felt as if he had been granted a pardon and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Okay, boss, whatever you say, I will definitely do it!"
"Chen Feng is the mole, do you understand?"
A ruthless glint flashed in Scarface's eyes. "I'll call the brothers in later and have them deal with Chen Feng. That'll be the end of it. You understand what I mean?"
Tao Yu frowned slightly.
The Chen Feng that Scarface was referring to was the young man who had just begged for mercy here, his body covered in blood from torture.
"He was in charge of keeping watch during this operation, but all the brothers involved were arrested, while he was the only one who escaped unscathed. If he's not the mole, then who is?" Scarface Pao reminded him meaningfully.
Tao Yu's expression shifted for a moment, then he nodded, "Boss is wise!"
"Call everyone in!" Scarface waved his hand.
"yes!"
Tao Yu responded and hurriedly turned to leave. Not long after, he called in everyone who had been blasted out by Scarface.
As Tao Yu entered, everyone's gaze was indeed filled with hostility.
Of course, some of them, whether out of a guilty conscience or fear of being framed by Tao Yu, came in with trepidation, constantly casting questioning or pleading glances at Tao Yu.
Of course, there were also various threatening glances among them.
But since the boss, Scarface, was there, naturally no one dared to say it to his face.
"Boss!"
Upon entering, the group immediately bowed in greeting.
"Didn't you all want to know what Tao Yu just told me?" Scarface Pao glanced at everyone and asked meaningfully.
Everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment, but no one dared to answer.
