A strange creature engulfed in flames floated in mid-air inside the villa.
It looks like a person, but you can't see their face clearly.
Despite the flames, they didn't feel hot despite being so close to the crowd; in fact, they felt a bit cold.
"Are you... a human or...?"
Before the last word could be uttered, the fire shadow moved.
With a few swift movements, the weapons in the hands of all the henchmen vanished.
"Splash!"
A pile of gun parts fell from mid-air, including Marski's rifle.
"Get him!"
"superior!"
"I'll go get the fire extinguisher!"
Once the fight started, the underlings realized that this was an enemy, not a friend.
Since they are adversaries, whether human or god, they should at least have a go at it. Giving up and waiting to be defeated is not the style of the fighting nation.
Gao Feng, now transformed into a fire-man, wouldn't give them another chance to cause trouble; he'd had his fill of fun.
With one slap each, they knocked out the henchmen, then carried Marski out of the villa.
Instead of returning to the hotel, Gao Ang took Marski directly to an altitude of 500 meters above the ground.
He lifted him up with one hand and began questioning him:
"I'll ask you questions, you answer them. If you don't cooperate, you'll end up with a meat pie, understand?"
"I understand, I understand..."
Marski was already terrified. A fire-man was beyond his comprehension, but this fire-man could also fly, and fly so high.
He knew he had met his match. Even if it were their boss, or even the entire group, it would be a waste of their time.
...
Having obtained the desired information, he released his grip...
Marski fell back onto the floor of his own villa through the large hole he had previously smashed.
As for those underlings, they were all wicked criminals anyway, so Gao Feng didn't find it difficult to deal with them.
Besides, this is the Sand Kingdom, not the Eastern Kingdom, so let's just consider it an added beautiful scenic spot.
With a snap of his fingers, a violent explosion erupted inside the villa.
Without looking back, Gao flew towards the address given by Marski, which was his boss's secret location—a hidden underground base.
According to Marski, the situation within Saudi Arabia was also turbulent during this period.
The current leaders are also cracking down hard on the petty thugs under these oligarchs.
His boss, just in case, always hides in this underground base built during the Cold War.
All their eating, drinking, and bodily functions are subject to strict, multi-layered checks, and even their communications are conducted via dedicated satellite phones.
"No wonder I couldn't find you anywhere; you were hiding like rats!"
Floating in the air, Gao Feng looked down into the underground space through his X-ray vision and couldn't help but feel sorry for this guy named Ronev.
"Having so much money but hiding in such a dark and sunless place is so miserable! Well then, I'll help you get out of this predicament!"
All the security measures in the underground base were utterly useless against him.
Without even alerting Langnev's bodyguards, Gao Ang sneaked into his bedroom.
Looking at Ronnev lying on the bed like a dead pig, Gao Feng frowned.
After looking around, I noticed that the shower room had a large bathtub filled with water.
With a grab in the air, the bathtub full of water flew up.
With another wave of his hand, the bathtub slammed heavily onto the large bed.
The bathtub was so big that it not only pinned Ronev down inside, but it also nearly crushed the bed.
"Someone come here!"
"What happened?"
"Damn it, which bastard is it?"
From inside came Langnev's shouts and the thumping sounds of kicking the bathtub.
"Don't bother, your bodyguards won't be able to get in anytime soon."
Gao Ang knocked on the bathtub a few times to calm the person inside down.
"Who are you? Do you know who I am? What do you want?"
"Who I am is not important. Of course I know who you are. As for what I want... I just want to know some questions: Where did that green rabbit come from? Tell me everything you know about that green rabbit, and I'll reluctantly spare your life."
Gao Ang squatted on the bathtub, grabbed a remote control, and started banging on it.
It's like a monk striking a wooden fish, very rhythmic.
It sounds rhythmic, even somewhat pleasant, from the outside.
But to Ronev inside, it sounded completely different; to him, it was like a series of thunderclaps.
And they were the kind of echo bombs; one would hit him and another would follow, almost giving him high blood pressure.
"What green rabbit? I don't know anything about it! You could kill me and I still wouldn't know!"
"Still being stubborn? Didn't you ask Marski to go find it?"
Inside, Langnev fell silent, and the loud pounding stopped.
"Speak up, don't make things difficult for yourself. If I can find you by following Marski, I can find your boss by following you. If you really don't cooperate, I'll have no choice but to use force, but I have to warn you in advance about the consequences of my methods: you'll either die or be crippled. If you're lucky enough to survive, you'll most likely be cerebral palsy, the kind where you need help with everything, from eating and drinking to using the toilet, and you might not even realize you've soiled yourself..."
The high-pitched, incessant chatter frightened Langnev, while inside, Langnev pondered how to trick this unknown creature.
It was damp, and although the room was heated, it was still uncomfortable.
He desperately wanted to notify his bodyguard, but all he could reach were wet sheets and cold, smooth stone walls.
"I can tell you, but can you move this thing away first?"
I'll just move it; it's not like this guy can see me anyway.
The bathtub was thrown aside by Gao Lie, and Langnev squinted at his surroundings. His eyes were still a little uncomfortable when he suddenly entered the bright world.
After he got used to it, he still didn't notice the newcomer.
"Wait here, I'll find the address for you."
He opened the bedside table, and just as Ronev's finger was about to touch the alarm button, a gunshot rang out...
"Ouch, my hand!"
Langnev's entire right hand exploded off at the wrist.
He clutched his right hand, rolled off the bed onto the floor, and kept cursing.
"You bastard, you're dead!"
"Don't expect to get anything from me, you'll never get anything..."
"You talk too much nonsense!"
Before he could finish speaking, Gao's right hand was pressed down on his head.
With a forceful squeeze of his five fingers, Langnev even heard the sound of his skull cracking. With a scream, he fainted from the pain.
"You bastard, can't you learn from Marski and cooperate a little? Why do you have to make me do a soul search? Don't you know how tiring a soul search is?"
Muttering to himself, Gao Feng sighed reluctantly and began another soul-searching operation...
Compared to the first soul search, this time I didn't feel as tired.
But I still felt tired, like the feeling of staying up all night in an internet cafe.
"Ramovic..."
The name Gao Ang received was both unexpected and reasonable.
Surprisingly, how could a Saudi oligarch be connected with those people in his own country?
Logically, the same group of people ultimately benefited from the cultural relic trafficking rings that were exposed in Harbin.
Xia Yu is connected to that bar, and the legal representative of that bar is related to Lamovic.
In other words, the relationship between Xia Yu and this Lamovic is also ambiguous.
And Xia Yu's surname is Xia...
The funds misappropriated from Anmei Pharmaceutical were eventually transferred to an individual's name, a person named Xiamen...
Xia and Xia... what might that mean?
Gao Ang made a bold guess: that Xia Yu and Xia Weiwei had a relationship.
"But that shouldn't be the case. If they knew each other, wouldn't Xia Weiwei know? Or is this woman just putting on an act and fooling me?"
Gao Ang thought about it carefully, but couldn't find anything unusual about Xia Weiwei.
To put it bluntly, this woman is a naive and innocent girl, not the type to hide anything.
"Forget it, let's not think about it for now. We can just wait for Lamovic to provide the answers, right?"
After glancing at Langnev, Gao Ang felt it was better to act on behalf of Heaven...
Before leaving, he took one of Langev's belongings with him.
According to Ronev's memory, this was a gift from Lamovich, serving as a token between the two.
It's nothing particularly rare, just a broken bone.
Judging from its shape, it should be something like ribs.
It's not artificially synthesized; it's just a human rib.
Quietly leaving the Langnev underground base, Gao Feng flew towards the outskirts of Novosibirsk.
There is a large lake there called Lake Andrew.
There is a large manor by the lake, with all kinds of facilities.
There's an airport, a dock, and even a small submarine... There are even fighter jets in the manor's underground hangar...
"Oligarchs are oligarchs. With security measures like these, let alone petty theft, even a special forces unit might not be able to take them down."
This isn't a private estate, it's a country within a country!
In addition to these equipment, there are armed personnel with live ammunition both inside and outside the manor.
Judging from their demeanor and actions, they are definitely not ordinary people; they might even be retired special forces personnel from Saudi Arabia.
Once their military ranks are removed and they're dressed in civilian desert camouflage uniforms, they become Ramovich's private army.
Like Ronnev, this Lamovich was also a coward.
His resting or recuperation place was also underground.
Or perhaps it's more accurate to say it's in the water, since this guy extended his dwelling to the bottom of the lake...
This ruined Gao Feng's plan to freefall directly into the air, so it seems he can only sneak in through normal means.
Gao decided to use a different approach with Lamovic than with Langev and the others.
Firstly, because this person's influence is so great, killing him rashly would have unpredictable consequences that he couldn't estimate.
Moreover, no matter what, this guy is considered a pro-Eastern faction.
In addition, one of the football stars Gao Feng really liked was in the football club that this guy had acquired, so he decided to formally get in touch with this oligarch.
Of course, although he intended to make formal contact, Gao Ang was not foolish enough to swagger in and expose his true colors.
Getting around these guards and bodyguards, as well as the surveillance cameras in the monitoring room, couldn't be easier.
Under the influence of a full-force field, not only will visibility be impaired, but even thermal imaging devices will become ineffective.
After passing through layers of security, Gao Ang stood before the last gate leading to Lamovic's residence.
For some reason, this gate doesn't use an electronic lock, but a mechanical lock...
A mechanical lock requires external force to operate from the inside before the door can be opened.
For others, it might be a dead end, but for Gao Ang, it's just a little bit more complicated.
No matter what kind of mechanical lock it is, it always needs a lock cylinder.
Why not just disassemble the lock cylinder?
After a little time, this final gate proved useless against Gao Feng.
With a gentle tap of his right finger, the door opened silently.
They entered silently without anyone noticing.
Perhaps they believed that no one could break through their defenses, and even if someone did manage to get past this last barrier, so what?
Lamovic's last refuge was also heavily guarded.
It's an underground sanatorium, set up like a dragon palace, complete with a bunch of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, and a full medical team.
"Looks like this guy isn't in very good health."
After passing through the gate, Gao Ang floated all the way to the end of the underground dragon palace.
Many people and instruments passed by on the way, but they only felt that the space in front of them was blurry and distorted. There was no airflow or the sound of wind from people walking.
Lamovic didn't rest; he seemed to be undergoing some kind of testing.
The person lay on a strange-looking machine. It wasn't really a bed because it had many small cylindrical parts on it, much like the treatment device used by the old man from the island nation in the movie "Wolverine".
This time, Gao Ang waited until the medical staff finished examining Lamovic, packed up the medical equipment, and Lamovic was alone inside before revealing his true form.
Gao Feng felt no psychological pressure in dealing with Langnev, Marsky, or their underlings.
But these medical staff are different; their hands are not yet stained with the blood of innocent people, and Gao Feng cannot bring himself to silence them as well.
Once only Lamovic was resting with his eyes closed, Gao Ang silenced all other noises, walked straight to Lamovic's side, and gently tapped his helmet a few times.
“Wake up, Mr. Lamovic, I have a few questions for you.” Gao Ang spoke in Saudi Arabian, so this guy should be able to understand him.
Lamovic remained silent beneath the medical helmet, but his right hand seemed to twitch slightly.
"Don't bother, your bodyguards and doctors don't have time to help you. It's just the two of us here, what would you like to drink?"
Gao Yang took the initiative and went straight to the wine cabinet next door, selecting from the dazzling array of wines inside.
Red, white, foreign, from every year.
Baijiu (Chinese white liquor) is inappropriate for this occasion; it's for drinking with your own brothers. Foreign liquor is also inappropriate; that's for drinking in a more formal setting.
After searching for a while, Gao Ang found a bottle of red wine with a very old-fashioned packaging and a cork. He glanced at the production date: 1976…
He uncorked the wine, took two wine glasses, and walked back to Lamovic's side.
At this point, Lamovic knew there was no point in continuing to pretend, so he sat up.
All warning measures were used, but to no avail.
He scanned the area several times, but the surveillance cameras were just for show; nothing that was happening here attracted anyone's attention.
He knew that he could only talk to this person whose face he couldn't see clearly.
