Zhang Cheng's eyelids suddenly lifted, his gaze sharp as lightning, piercing Leopard Brother's heart.
He placed his hands on the armrests of his wheelchair and, to the astonishment of the crowd, slowly stood up.
“In Funing,” Zhang Cheng’s voice wasn’t loud, but it made everyone’s eardrums buzz, “I have connections in the public security, procuratorate, and judicial system.”
"You're an outsider who fled from Yiwu..."
"What do you have to fight me with?"
"What can you use to fight me?"
"With this piece of junk you're holding?"
Leopard's face had turned ashen. He felt as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on him, making it difficult to even breathe. He wanted to retort, but found that not a single word could be uttered from his throat.
Zhang Cheng yanked off his thick cotton-padded coat.
The gauze on her abdomen, soaked and congealed with blood, was exposed.
He pointed to the horrifying wound and said, word by word, "Do you know what kind of wound this is?"
Gunshot wound.
"Because of this shot, the Party Secretary of Jiaxing City was sent to the Party School for six months of study. The Mayor was transferred to oversee education. Dozens of leaders at all levels were all punished."
"As for the one who fired the shot, I shot him in the temple on the spot."
"The head of the criminal investigation department of the Public Security Bureau behind him didn't live past the next day either; his head was also blown off by a bullet."
Zhang Cheng's eyes held a powerful and ruthless aura, forged in a sea of corpses and blood. He stared intently at Leopard Brother, whose face was deathly pale.
"Then tell me now."
"In Funing County, in this private room."
"Who dares to touch me?"
"It's you? Brother Leopard?"
Meeting Zhang Cheng's gaze, which seemed to pierce through one's soul, Leopard's eyes flickered violently, and the hand holding the gun began to tremble slightly.
"Or is it you?"
Zhang Cheng's gaze suddenly shifted to the bald young man holding the wine bottle.
The bald young man's heart clenched violently. He felt as if the young man in front of him had transformed into a prehistoric beast. The suffocating aura pressed down on him, making his face turn red and almost causing him to kneel down on the spot.
"Or you guys?"
Zhang Cheng's icy gaze swept across the entire room.
Any thug who met his gaze was terrified and instinctively lowered their head to avoid his sharp edge.
Zhang Cheng slowly sat back in his wheelchair, his fingers tapping lightly on the armrests, making a rhythmic tapping sound, like a countdown to death.
“Someone once told me that fighting and killing is just a way for people at the bottom of society to survive.”
“I completely agree.”
"Now, I don't want to be a person at the bottom anymore. I'm willing to use self-interest to solve problems."
"but……"
He paused, his voice suddenly turning cold.
"It doesn't mean I can't be a person from the lower class."
"You all shouldn't force me either."
"Brother Leopard, I've already put on my shoes and I don't want to take them off and go stomp in the mud with you barefoot guys."
"Ten thousand yuan, leave Funing County."
What do you think?
Zhang Cheng stared intently at Brother Leopard.
Leopard's eyes flashed wildly, his heart churning with rage. He was furious that he had been intimidated by a mere kid's few words.
Can……
Thinking back to those words, that gunshot wound, those names…
The harsh words that were on the tip of his tongue were swallowed back down.
"call!"
Leopard Brother exhaled a heavy breath, as if he were expelling the fear and resentment in his heart.
He looked at Zhang Cheng and slowly gave him a thumbs up.
"Mr. Zhang, you... are someone important."
"I'm giving you this face, Brother Leopard."
"Ten thousand yuan, let's go."
Upon hearing this, the group of young people all breathed a sigh of relief.
They were outlaws, but not fools.
If one can live, who really wants to die?
"Come to the inpatient department of the People's Hospital tomorrow at noon, and I'll give you the money."
Zhang Cheng reached out and picked up an unopened bottle of beer, bit off the cap with his teeth, and held it high.
"I hope Brother Leopard will keep his promise."
After saying that.
He tilted his head back and gulped down the entire bottle of ice-cold beer.
Leopard Brother also picked up a bottle of wine, gritted his teeth, opened it, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, my word is my bond! Once we get the money, we'll get out of Funing immediately!"
"good!"
Zhang Cheng put down the empty wine bottle and said calmly to Liu Zhongren, "Brother Liu, let's go."
"Um."
Liu Zhongren gripped the wheelchair handle tightly, his knuckles turning white, and pushed Zhang Cheng away, turning to leave.
Xiao Xing followed closely behind, his back already soaked with cold sweat.
Until the door to the private room closed, completely isolating that figure.
Leopard felt as if the mountain that had been pressing on his heart had been lifted. His legs went weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground, cursing under his breath, "Damn it... this kid is so young, but his aura is more terrifying than any of the bosses I've ever met..."
"Brother Leopard, are we... really going?" the bald young man asked cautiously.
"Otherwise what?" Leopard narrowed his eyes and slapped him on the head with his backhand. "That little brat is willing to gamble with his life. He's already given us a generous way out by spending ten thousand yuan to let us go! If he pushes his luck any further, none of us will survive tonight!"
"Where we go doesn't matter if we're just hanging out?"
Leopard straightened up, picked up a bottle of liquor, and forced himself to shout, "Brothers, eat! Drink! Tonight, we won't leave until we're drunk!"
But his trembling hands betrayed his inner fear.
