Ruan Bang squinted at Li Ke: "Are you a mutant too? Do you dare to fight me bare-handed?"
Li Ke sneered and attacked Ruan Bang again with his dagger. Within a minute, Li Ke was knocked back twice by the force Ruan Bang unleashed.
Ruan Bang also had many bloody holes and wounds on his body left by Li Ke. Of course, the most important thing was that a symmetrical bloody hole was also opened on his left arm.
Ruan Bang's strength was broken by Li Ke. He was covered in blood, swayed a few times, sat back on the ground, and surrendered: "I'm not fighting anymore, I admit defeat."
Li Ke walked up to him: "Where did you take our people?"
After catching his breath, Ruan Bang bargained, "Could you treat my wounds first? I heard that China doesn't mistreat prisoners."
Li Ke kicked him hard in the head, causing Ruan Bang to cough up blood and lose four teeth in the process.
Stepping on his head, Li Ke demanded sharply, "Tell me, where are our people?"
Ruan Bang softened his stance, saying, "I only received 20,000 people; the other 100,000 were taken by others, and I don't know where they are."
Li Ke looked at Xiao Yi, whose expression also became more serious. He squatted down in front of Ruan Bang: "120,000 people? You reported 86,000 to us."
Ruan Bang nudged Li Ke's foot: "It's 120,000 people. Those who weren't reported are small groups of people we've already captured, batch after batch, totaling 30,000 to 40,000."
Li Ke withdrew his foot, allowing Xiao Yi to continue questioning. Perhaps resigned to his fate, Ruan Bang became very cooperative, answering every question.
In Ruan Bang's answer, they had a total of six forces, including five of them, including himself, who provided manpower and resources to infiltrate China and arrest people, and one of them was hiding behind the scenes, providing advice and strategies, and giving them a lot of weapons and medicine support.
Of the 120,000 people they captured, the most useful elites were all taken by this faction first, while Ruan Bang and his group were just following behind and picking up the scraps.
Ruan Bang wasn't entirely sure where the hidden force behind the scenes came from, but it was clear that they were from overseas. It was through them that Ruan Bang had made the connections with the guests who came to trade with him.
These guests traded weapons and drugs with Ruan Bang for beautiful women, fish monsters, and blood slaves, and also offered some research directions that would allow Ruan Bang to raise even more ferocious and enormous fish monsters.
According to the plan, some of these fish monsters are to be kept by guests, while others will be released inland when the time is right.
After listening to Ruan Bang's words, Li Ke felt that the person behind the scheme was malicious and had grand ambitions, but there was no progress on the matter she cared about most.
Seeing Xiao Yi snap out of his reverie, Li Ke finally spoke, asking, "Have you taken any action against the other forces? Have you received any information? Could you help me find out if the person I'm looking for has been sent overseas or is being held captive somewhere?"
Xiao Yi hesitated for a moment before saying, "The news hasn't come yet, but we should have results in the next few days. I've already reported the information, and we'll receive new instructions from above soon."
Li Ke: "Reported? You already knew about the information Ruan Bang had given you?"
Xiao Yi met Li Ke's gaze: "Part of the information came from Gotham, and part was deduced from other people's testimonies. Those buyers are still under our control. I think we will take people out to sea once the orders from above come down."
