Chapter 8 Night Raid!
However, he still didn't see the fear and uneasiness on Li Ming's face as he wished. The other party stared at him straight, "So..."
"So... what?" Ma Wu's voice was drawn out. "If you quickly take out all the money and apologize, this matter can be put behind us."
"Your father died suddenly, so the money should be all on you."
"Hmm..." Li Ming pondered, "Should I give it to you, or to the Fierce Tiger Gang?"
"!" Ma Wu looked at Li Ming in surprise and doubt. Although Li Ming's behavior was different from what Wang Bo said, he only regarded the other party as a child and did not take it seriously at all.
However, this guy seemed to be able to see through his heart and understand his thoughts.
"After such a huge crime, the Xionghu Gang sent a small character like you to collect the debt?" Li Ming said slowly. Looking at the other party's reaction, he knew that his guess was right.
Ma Wu must have learned about this matter from some channel, but he had evil intentions and planned to secretly ask for money instead of reporting it to the Xionghu Gang.
Perhaps the word "small role" irritated Ma Wu. He stepped in front of Li Ming and stared at him coldly, "You can choose not to give it to me, but the consequences are probably not something you can bear."
"It's impossible to give you everything. If I give it to you, how can I leave Silver-Ash Star?" Li Ming asked back. Ma Wu's slanted eyes were almost narrowed.
"I want two-thirds." He said immediately.
"At most half." Li Ming shook his head, his tone firm. "If Zhang Hu finds out that you've been secretly asking me for money, he probably won't let you go. At worst, I can just return the money to the Xionghu Gang."
Ma Wu's face was gloomy and uncertain, but he finally agreed.
"But I need cash. I'm afraid the gang will find out about the account changes." He made the request with the same firmness: "One hundred thousand star coins must be delivered to me in the outer city at 10 o'clock tonight!"
"Otherwise, even if you come back, if you dare to play tricks on us, the boss will not let you go easily!" he threatened.
"Outer city? Where is the outer city?" Li Ming frowned. "Too anxious."
"How do I know if you'll run away?" Ma Wu also had his own reasons: "Contact me near Red Street. My terminal number is ****.****.****"
He rattled off a series of numbers.
"This..." Li Ming pretended to be embarrassed for a while, but finally agreed reluctantly: "Okay."
Ha... Ma Wu sneered in his heart. This kid is a little smart, but unfortunately he is not very worldly-wise after all. The outer city is not the inner city.
But he remained expressionless. He tried to pat Li Ming's shoulder, but was dodged. He didn't care and walked straight to the shutter switch. After opening it, he heard a buzzing sound. He said, "Don't forget. Even a second late will make a difference."
Wang Bo and others were waiting outside. When he came out, they immediately came forward. Wang Bo said attentively, "Boss, he is sensible. If not, I will help you teach him a lesson!"
Ma Wu stamped his feet, stared at him, and slapped him so hard that he saw stars. "Waste!"
………
"I have to resolve this accident. If I can delay the Tiger Gang's knowledge for one day, I might undergo a tremendous change." Li Ming pondered and had already formed murderous intentions.
"Red Street..." He took out his smart terminal and prepared to check the map, only to find that Yang Yu had sent him many messages, but had withdrawn them all.
"It's incomprehensible..." He didn't take it seriously and pulled up the map. Red Street was quite far away from him.
"If we take action, we can't do it openly." Li Ming didn't dare to underestimate the tracing methods in the interstellar age, so he thought of the passage under Li Changhai's bed.
"The distance is too long. If we want to hike, we have to set off now." Li Ming looked at the time. It was already past nine in the morning.
He went upstairs directly and left a message for Mr. Yang, asking him to take all the items he had obtained except the security chip.
He took a piece of clothing, tore it into strips, wrapped his face with it, turned off the security system, arranged the room a little, and then jumped into the passage under the bed.
The pungent and fishy smell that hit him in the face made him frown. The surroundings were dark, with only the sound of rushing water and unknown objects floating in the sewage.
With the night vision mode turned on, he looked around, identified the direction, and headed towards the target.
The sun sets in the west, the sky turns yellow, and white air currents left by aircraft can be vaguely seen. The outer city is where miners, ruffians, and even illegal immigrants hang out.
Silver-Ash Star is rich in silver-ash ore, which has excellent ductility and memory properties and is an excellent material for making combat uniforms. Most of the miners of Star Creation Company are aliens, and their number is huge, so a series of industries have been derived.
Thinking in his mind, he pushed the manhole cover open a little. The surroundings were desolate, and Li Ming finally saw the light of day again.
Even if the air here is filled with dust and sand, it is better than the stench of the sewer.
"The sewers are interconnected, practically unobstructed, and highly maneuverable, making them a perfect path for smuggling. How could Silver Ash City leave such a hidden danger? Was it intentional?"
Li Ming came all the way and even felt that there were people walking in other passages several times, but they tacitly avoided meeting each other.
Even if there were partitions, they were badly damaged.
He looked around. It was a deserted street corner with abandoned houses on both sides. The exterior walls were severely weathered and there were few people around.
"Red Street should be only two or three streets away from here. Let's go and explore the way first." Li Ming wrapped the cloth tightly, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed, with wind and sand blowing in his face.
Compared to the desolate other streets, Red Street is much more prosperous, with bright lights and wine.
Many women wearing short skirts or even bikinis, exposing large areas of skin, made various seductive poses and solicited customers in front of the door.
His dress was not unusual, but the people here were more exaggerated than him, with riveted jackets, earrings that hung down to their chins, and even people wearing prosthetic limbs, all covered with complicated paint jobs.
However, it is just an ordinary prosthesis that can only collect electromyographic signals and has little combat power.
He did not contact Ma Wu, but was observing. It would be best if he could find his whereabouts directly. Once he contacted the other party, traces would be left on the Internet.
"It's not good to stand here." Li Ming frowned slightly, found an empty alley, looked at the weathered wall, and four mechanical arms extended from behind him. Then they inserted into it fiercely, and the bricks and stones collapsed. He climbed to the roof just like that.
Looking at it this way, it is much more intuitive. There are not only women on the street, but also men. Thanks to the aiming capability [Tactical Eyepiece], Li Ming can even see every charming expression on their faces, which is really eye-catching.
"Don't worry, it's only seven o'clock in the evening, there's plenty of time." He squatted here, quietly waiting for an opportunity. If he really couldn't find one, he would randomly pick an unlucky guy to contact Ma Wu.
But soon, thanks to his enhanced abilities, his eyes fixed on one person - Wang Bo.
"We are really destined to meet, old classmates."
Li Ming smiled and watched him walk towards the streetwalker, then began to flirt with her, rubbing his hands around her while talking non-stop, as if he was negotiating the price.
Soon he hugged the other person and walked towards a dark street, ready to fight.
"Are you kidding me? I said I won't cover it." The woman cursed. Wang Bo, looking anxious, forced the woman's head down and said, "Hurry up, I'm from the Tiger Gang."
The heavily made-up woman looked disgusted, opened her mouth reluctantly, and closed her eyes as if accepting her fate. Wang Bo breathed a sigh of relief, looking very happy, and cursed again:
"Damn Li Ming, what a coward! Now that his father is dead, he's become tough and caused me to be taught a lesson by Ma Wu."
At this moment, the sound of whistling wind came from the shadows.
Immediately, Wang Bo felt something wrapping around his upper body, covering his mouth and nose. His pupils dilated and his face became terrified.
But before he could react, he was pulled into the shadows by a huge force and couldn't even scream.
A few couples who were doing things nearby seemed to notice something, but they didn't care about what was happening below, so they just took a glance.
The heavily made-up woman was left there with a confused look on her face. She opened her eyes in confusion, her mouth still in the shape of "o".
Damn it, where are the people?!
