For some, this night was destined to be heartbreaking.
Zhang Kai and the others were rushed to the hospital overnight, while their gang leader, Song Tianhuo, was driving his beloved sports car away from the Qing family, speeding all the way.
Song Tianhuo suddenly frowned. Through the rearview mirror, he saw a black minivan following him.
What's going on?
Song Tianhuo sensed something was amiss and was about to step on the gas to leave the van behind when another van appeared in front of him and suddenly stopped the next second.
Song Tianhuo had to slam on the brakes. With a screeching sound, he leaned forward as the seatbelt tightened around him.
Song Tianhuo was truly enraged; flames flickered in his eyes. He pushed open the car door, got out, and roared at the car in front of him:
"Damn it, are you looking for death? You dare to block my way!"
But soon, Song Tianhuo's expression changed.
But then a group of men in black rushed out of the van, looking menacing, and headed straight for him.
"Are you Song Tianhuo?" the middle-aged man in the lead asked in a cold voice.
Song Tianhuo nodded subconsciously, and then he regretted it.
The middle-aged man's face was filled with heartache, and madness flickered in his eyes:
"It's because you stood by and watched my son die that he died!"
"Bear, you died a terrible death. Don't worry, Daddy will not let Song Tianhuo get away with this!"
With a wave of his hand, the middle-aged man surrounded Song Tianhuo, tackled him to the ground, and broke his arms and legs.
Song Tianhuo was in so much pain that tears streamed down his face. At level 7, his strength was simply no match for this group of people.
Song Tianhuo's lips twitched:
"How dare you treat me like this! Is there no law? Is there no justice?"
The middle-aged man gave a sinister smile: "The law? I am the law!"
Then, the beating continued.
Song Tianhuo screamed, feeling that this beating had come out of nowhere. What did he mean by "brat"? What did he mean by "refusing to help someone in distress"? He didn't understand at all.
"Did you hit the wrong person?" Song Tianhuo asked, enduring the excruciating pain.
The middle-aged man sneered: "No, Song Tianhuo, I'm beating you up! You're the one who killed my little bear!"
So Song Tianhuo was dragged back into the van and continued to be beaten.
"Aaaaaah!" Song Tianhuo screamed in agony, he was almost beaten beyond recognition!
The middle-aged man seemed to be looking for something on him, and ordered his men to strip off his clothes and search his body inch by inch.
Song Tianhuo was going crazy. Being beaten was bad enough, but he was also being groped all over.
Song Tianhu struggled desperately, but all his efforts were in vain.
Finally, he was thoroughly searched, but they couldn't find what they were looking for.
The middle-aged man's eyes grew colder and colder. He stepped on Song Tianhuo's face and asked:
"When you came out of the midnight theater, did you bring something with you? Did you take the family heirloom from my son?"
Coming out of the midnight theater?
Song Tianhuo stared wide-eyed; the middle-aged man's words had completely awakened him.
The leader of that gang that wiped out the gang called himself Song Tianhuo, and wasn't he just coming out of the midnight theater?
So I'm taking the blame for him!
"It's a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding!"
Song Tianhuo, his survival instinct kicking in, immediately explained to the middle-aged man:
"Although I am Song Tianhuo, I am not the Song Tianhuo you are looking for..."
The middle-aged man looked surprised. Had he really hit the wrong person?
Soon, a sinister glint flashed in his eyes. Since things had come to this, he might as well go all the way and kill him to silence him!
The middle-aged man beckoned his men to take action.
Song Tianhuo panicked and hurriedly said:
“I am the only son of the Song family. Deep in my soul is the mark left by my grandfather, Song Yan. Once I die, my grandfather will immediately sense it and come to kill you.”
The middle-aged man frowned. Song Yan, the head of the Song family, had reportedly broken through to level 80 two years ago. Such a person could indeed leave a mark on the younger generation, even at some cost.
The middle-aged man signaled to his men not to make a move; this man should not be killed yet.
"You mean someone deliberately used your name to make you take the blame?" the middle-aged man asked.
Song Tianhuo nodded.
The middle-aged man laughed and said, "It doesn't matter if it's not you. Someone has to pay for my bear cub's life. If we can't find him, then it'll have to be you."
Song Tianhuo felt a chill in his heart; he was absolutely certain that the person in front of him had gone mad!
The middle-aged man then said:
"If you can provide clues to help me find the culprit who killed Xiong'er, I will let you go."
Song Tianhuo thought for a moment and said, "I do have a suspect here, Lin Yu. I think he's probably the leader of the Extinguishing Fire Gang."
In fact, Song Tianhuo was not 80% confident; at most, he was 40%.
But thinking that he could take this opportunity to get revenge on Lin Yu and drag him down with him, Song Tianhuo naturally had to say that.
"Lin Yu?" The middle-aged man nodded and instructed his subordinates:
"Investigate this person for me."
The next morning, Lin Yu woke up to a news report that caught his attention:
[Shocking! Song Tianhuo, the top genius of the foreign language school and the only son of the Song family, mysteriously disappeared last night and his whereabouts are unknown! The situation is as follows...]
The Song family has issued a reward: 50,000 yuan will be offered to anyone who provides clues leading to Song Tianhuo's whereabouts.
To be honest, the bounty offered by the Song family was completely devoid of any real intent; Lin Yu almost laughed when he saw it.
Xiao Song, your life was only worth 50,000!
But soon, Lin Yu's smile vanished.
Lin Yu had Sun Qianqian and the others leak Song Tianhuo's information to that Wolf Cub Guild, and as a result, Song Tianhuo mysteriously disappeared.
What a coincidence!
Lin Yu sensed the seriousness of the situation.
Doesn't that mean that if I had left the instance under Lin Yu's identity, then the person who mysteriously disappeared would have been me?
This gave Lin Yu a great sense of crisis. The truth will eventually come out, and my real identity will be exposed sooner or later. When that happens, I will be in danger!
