Chapter 314 Who is that person?
"Little girl, my brother asks you a question, answer it honestly, otherwise don't blame me for cutting your pretty face with a knife."
Su Li sneered, "I'm about to die, and I still care about this face?"
She glared fiercely at the middle-aged man in front of her, without saying a word, just staring at him.
For a moment, the only sound in the warehouse was the creaking sound of the light bulb.
Su Li's heart was pounding, but she tried to maintain an almost eerie calmness on her face.
She knew that the more dangerous the situation, the calmer she had to be.
Panic will only hasten the arrival of death.
She raised her eyes, her gaze penetrating the darkness, looking straight at the middle-aged man with a sneer on her lips.
"You just said you didn't want me to die an unjust death, and that you wanted me to die knowingly."
Su Li tilted her head slightly. Although she was tied up by ropes, her posture did not look embarrassed. Instead, she exuded an elusive calmness.
"In that case, you must tell me who it is that hates me so much that they want to buy my life, right?"
Her words, like a stone thrown into stagnant water, broke the stagnant air in the warehouse.
The two younger thugs obviously didn't expect that she would dare to bargain when she was about to die, and there was a look of surprise on their faces.
A barely perceptible surprise flashed across the middle-aged man's eyes, then turned into a sinister smile.
While the two were confronting each other, Fu Jinzhou, Chen Ze and others had already approached the room.
Su Li's calm voice in the face of danger was amplified in the darkness and reached their ears clearly.
Fu Jinzhou's heart tightened and loosened with every word and breath of Su Li.
He heard Su Li's voice, which was almost unusually calm, and felt both distressed and proud.
She was so petite, but at certain moments he felt that Su Li had the perseverance to do anything.
He exchanged a glance with Chen Ze beside him, which was a tacit understanding that had long been formed through countless times fighting side by side.
A silent gesture.
——Disperse, encircle, and wait for the opportunity.
Chen Ze and Jiang Yuan immediately understood, lowered their bodies even lower, and quietly moved towards the different broken windows on both sides of the warehouse.
The faint sound of clothes rubbing against the cement wall was instantly swallowed up by the night wind.
Fu Jinzhou stayed where he was, pressed against the cold wall, his ears catching every movement in the warehouse.
He needed to confirm Su Li's safety, and more importantly, he needed to find out who was behind this.
***
Inside the warehouse.
The middle-aged man took two steps forward, his leather shoes making a rustling sound on the dusty ground.
He stopped in front of Su Li, examining his prey with amusement.
"hehe……"
The laughter echoed in the empty warehouse, sounding particularly creepy.
"Death is imminent, yet you remain so calm."
"No wonder... no wonder he's so wary of you, determined to kill you and make you disappear completely."
This sentence, like a flash of lightning, cut through Su Li's tense nerves!
That person!
He was indeed being instructed by someone!
Fu Jinzhou outside the window also heard it clearly. Sure enough, that man started to attack Su Li.
But how did he know Su Li’s identity?
Who is he?
Inside the window.
Su Li suppressed the pounding of her heart and locked her gaze on the middle-aged man's eyes, trying to catch a clue from his cloudy eyes.
"Who is that person...?"
Her voice trembled slightly due to excitement, but she quickly calmed down.
"You guys are paid to do this, to help people avoid disasters, but you have to let me know whose way I'm blocking, whose eyes I'm bothering."
Su Li's tone carried a subtle hint of inducement, as she tried to lead the other party to a specific identity.
Because she really couldn't think of who it could be?
Besides Lin Wanyi and Song Jiaxuan, who else has a grudge against her?
Song Jiaxuan is in the police station, and Lin Wanyi is a girl, so she doesn't need to be so aggressive.
Although Su Li knew that she was a bit scheming, she didn't think she was so vicious.
This person came up to ask about her background. Could it be... related to her unknown background?
"You're very interested in my identity. It seems it's related to Lin Aijun."
The smile on the middle-aged man's face disappeared instantly.
He realized that he had said too much. Su Li was slowly getting closer to the truth, and his eyes became more vicious.
"Who is it?"
He snorted coldly, his tone full of disdain and warning.
"Of course... I'm someone who wants you to disappear from this world completely!"
This answer is equivalent to saying nothing.
Su Li's heart sank, and a feeling of powerlessness and coldness came over her.
But a sarcastic sneer slowly appeared on her face.
"Oh……"
She chuckled, her eyes full of mockery.
"It's the same as if I didn't say anything. Looks like I'll just have to be a fool."
This provocative remark completely infuriated the middle-aged man!
"You bitch! You dare to play tricks on me when you're about to die!"
He suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Su Li's chin hard!
The rough fingers, with the disgusting smell of tobacco oil, were so strong that they almost crushed her jaw.
The intense pain made Su Li groan, and her vision went dark.
But she still stared at him stubbornly, without a trace of surrender in her eyes.
The middle-aged man approached her, his face distorted with anger.
"Stop trying to trick me!"
"But since you know Lin Aijun, it seems I didn't arrest the wrong person tonight."
His eyes were fierce, staring at Su Li's eyes, as if he wanted to see through her.
Suddenly he laughed again and said, "Now that I've said this, you should understand why you're dying!"
He increased the strength of his grip and said word by word, "Your life experience... is your death warrant! Do you understand?"
The man stared at Su Li with sticky eyes, rubbing his fingertips on her face. "It's a pity for you to die when you're so young and so beautiful. But, there's nothing I can do. It's Lin Aijun who insisted on taking you back!"
Outside the window, Fu Jinzhou's pupils suddenly contracted when he heard these words!
It turned out that he came here because of Su Li’s background!
He clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his palms.
A cold murderous intent instantly emanated from him...
At this moment, the air pressure around Fu Jinzhou was terrifyingly low.
The murderous intent permeated the air as if it were a substance.
Su Li was in pain, and he was in pain too. The matter was clear and there was no need to delay any further.
He took a deep breath, suppressed the surging anger, and made an extremely obscure gesture in the direction of Chen Ze and Jiang Yuan.
--action!
Almost at the same time, a crisp "clang" sound came from the side of the warehouse, as if something was hit, which was particularly harsh in the silent night.
It’s Jiang Yuan!
As planned, he deliberately kicked over several empty paint cans piled in the corner.
Inside the house, the middle-aged man paused, his brows furrowed instantly, and his eyes swept fiercely towards the source of the sound.
"Damn it! What's that noise?"
