Chapter 381 Bandits Within the Circle
In less than ten minutes, the rats' group was in complete disarray, with one-third dead, one-third captured, and another third injured and escaping.
Right now, Qin Yeting is personally interrogating those who have been arrested, including the most arrogant one from earlier, Black Rat.
"You just wait! My boss will definitely come to save us! Even if you all kneel down and beg for mercy, it won't do you any good!" Even as a prisoner, Black Rat didn't forget to be arrogant.
Assistant Zhou stepped forward, his expression cold and stern, and kicked Black Rat in the face, knocking out one of Black Rat's front teeth on the spot!
"If you don't want to die, confess honestly. Who are you and what is your purpose?" Qin Yeting threatened coldly.
Black Rat was stunned. After being arrogant and unstoppable for so many years, this was the first time he had met a tough opponent.
After he backed down, his underlings also started to cower and beg for mercy.
"Hero, spare us! Hero, spare us! We'll tell you everything!"
Immediately afterwards, these people confessed honestly.
They were bandits within the circle, not subject to any jurisdiction, and usually engaged in murder, arson, theft, and robbery.
There is no law on Broken Soul Island, and the island lord's mansion is just a facade. It can't even control the four major gangs, let alone these bandits.
The most abundant resource in the industry is KN mineral, which they used to rob.
"Mr. Qin! Mr. Qin! Help!" A panicked voice came from Gong Feng's tent.
Qin Yeting frowned slightly. Logically speaking, his defense should be fine, so how could Gong Feng's defense have been breached?
Qin Yeting had no choice but to respond to the tent not far away, "Brothers inside, as long as you're willing to release the people, I can give you a way out."
"Heh! Now that we're all in your hands, what's the point of living? Is that even possible? Even if I die, I'll take one of them down with me!" the person inside retorted arrogantly.
"It doesn't matter if you die, but have you thought about your family? What about your other brothers!"
You have captured the island lord of Broken Soul Island. Although the island lord's mansion is just a title, it still represents the face of the entire Broken Soul Island.
By killing her, you've completely cut off your escape route.
"What?! The island owner is actually a lame woman?!" The people inside exclaimed in shock.
Gong Feng, who was sitting on the ground, felt extremely humiliated when she heard these words.
She roared angrily, "I am your ancestor!"
However, Gong Feng was met with a merciless slap.
These "rats" are nothing like the people in the circle; they know the rules and are polite.
They only believe in one principle—
Violence solves everything; whoever has the greatest ability and the most sophisticated methods reigns supreme.
Gong Feng had a noticeable handprint on her face, and now she finally dared not speak recklessly again.
Hearing the commotion inside, Qin Yeting looked increasingly distressed.
Gong Feng was, after all, the lord of Broken Soul Island; he had to give him face and save him.
So Qin Yeting spoke up again, "You can state your conditions first, and we will agree to anything reasonable."
"Fine, release all my brothers outside first, and I'll trust you!"
"That's impossible," Qin Yeting refused without hesitation.
If we release so many people, we'll definitely suffer heavy losses if they retaliate next time.
"If you can't even do this little thing, what are you talking about!" The man's attitude became increasingly irritable.
Concerned for her own safety, Gong Feng quickly said to Qin Yeting, "Release those people, release them all!"
“Island Master Gong, these people are all desperate criminals. The more you agree to their demands, the more they will take advantage of you! The best way is to take control of the situation yourself.” Qin Yeting’s voice was firm, not giving “Rat” any chance.
The rats inside Gong Feng's tent fell silent.
After a long while, the man asked, "Are you sure you'll let me go if I release this woman? Do you dare swear to God?"
"You bandits and robbers, do you still believe in oaths?"
I'm only telling you this: either release them, or you die. You have no other choice!
Qin Yeting threatened in a cold voice.
The "rats" inside can't afford to gamble.
In the end, he had no choice but to take a gamble and drag Gong Feng out of the tent.
Gong Feng's leg injury had not fully healed, and being forced to walk was extremely painful.
But in front of so many people, as the island's owner, she could only suppress her emotions and preserve her last shred of dignity.
The standoff continued for a while.
"Rat," who was holding Gong Feng hostage, said coldly, "Fine, I'll trust you this once. I'll release her right now."
After saying that, the man glanced at his captured brothers one last time, then released Gong Feng and turned to leave.
Qin Yeting watched the person walk away quietly.
But Gong Feng couldn't swallow this insult.
She is the mistress of the island, the most noble woman on the entire Broken Soul Island!
What are these bandits? They actually dared to ambush her when she wasn't paying attention.
Gong Feng gave her subordinate a look!
The man instantly understood, pulled out his pistol, and fired a shot at the still-escaping member of the Rat gang!
"Bang!"
The fugitive, who thought he had escaped death, collapsed to the ground.
He turned around in disbelief, his eyes wide with shock as he stared intently at Qin Yeting before he died!
Qin Yeting was also speechless.
This was not his order at all.
Letting an ordinary bandit escape wouldn't be a loss for him, since nearly a third of the people had already escaped during the chaos.
On the contrary, the fact that this person is dead makes it seem like he broke his promise.
"Island Master Gong, you won't always be this lucky. Please think twice next time," Qin Yeting couldn't help but remind him.
Gong Feng pretended to be confused, acting as if she were weak and helpless.
"Mr. Qin, I don't understand what you're saying. My leg hurts so much. Could you come and take a look?" Gong Feng used her feminine charm to plead.
Seeing that Xia Yue had been relying on Qin Yeting a lot lately, she guessed that Qin Yeting might like this type of girl, so she tried to put on an act.
Unfortunately, Qin Yeting didn't buy it at all.
"If your leg hurts, go see a doctor. I'm not a doctor," Qin Yeting replied coldly, instructing Ansen, Assistant Zhou, and others to handle the aftermath.
He then took Xia Yue back to rest.
The chaos just now must have frightened his little Yue'er; he needs to comfort her properly.
But when Qin Yeting returned to the tent, Xia Yue simply sat quietly, without showing any sign of panic.
Qin Yeting couldn't help but praise, "As expected of my wife, she remained calm in the face of danger."
Xia Yue smiled and said, "At first I was a little scared, but after hearing that you were in charge of the overall situation outside, I had nothing to worry about."
"This time it was mostly luck; I took precautions beforehand. I might not be so lucky next time. We've entered this industry, and it's a dog-eat-dog world where everyone wants to grab resources."
Little Yue'er, there may be more trouble ahead, but no matter what, I will do everything in my power to protect you!
"You should take care of yourself first," Xia Yue said with a smile, her tone light, trying to ease the tension.
However, at that moment, the maid beside Gong Feng rushed over, looking panicked, and said, "No...something bad has happened..."
