Although I don't know why they captured Li Ruo, I suppose they must be quite familiar with the things on her.
What should he do now?
Seeing that Lyon hadn't moved for a while, the fat man clearly lost his patience: "I'm talking to you, didn't you hear me? Give me the hat!"
No matter what he said, Lyon remained motionless.
Asking him to check his hat now would be suicide!
However, the people around Darius were all armed; if he ran away, he would definitely be shot dead...
"What are you doing?"
While he was pondering, the fat man had already begun to have some doubts.
His eyes turned cold, and he took a few steps forward to rip off Lyon's hat.
However, before he could get close, gunshots rang out from not far away, accompanied by several screams, which startled everyone.
The fat man's expression changed, and he quickly grabbed his subordinate who had rushed in, asking, "What happened?"
The subordinate was clearly frightened and stammered, "There are a lot of people outside...it seems to be Qin Lie's men."
"Qin Lie?"
Upon hearing this, the fat man immediately realized something was wrong and rushed outside to check.
Qin Lie has been fighting against them for many years, and his arrival now is certainly not for anything good.
But before they could react, Qin Lie's men rushed in and began searching for Li Ruo.
During this time, Qin Lie had been keeping a close eye on Darius, and only then did he discover that a group of his men had been stationed in the slums and were behaving very suspiciously.
It must be related to Li Ruo, so Qin Lie and Wen Huaiyan put their heads together and decided that one side would hold off Darius while the other side would rush over to search.
Seeing how rude this group of people were, the fat man and the scarred man quickly stepped forward to stop them, saying, "What are you doing? Can't you see we're here?"
Upon hearing this, the leader of the men in black sneered, "So what if you're here? This is a slum; anyone can come here. It's not Darius's territory!"
"you!"
Upon hearing this, the two sides immediately confronted each other, and war seemed imminent.
Seeing this, Leon quickly put on his hat and ran out in the chaos.
His goal was clear: once he left the slum, he headed straight for the well-known local pawnshop.
"Boss, I want to sell something."
The boss first looked him up and down, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes as he looked at his shabby clothes.
His pawnshop wasn't far from the slums, and he was used to begging people often using the pretense of pawning things to swindle money from him.
What do you want to sell?
Lyon glanced towards the door to make sure no one from Darius was chasing after him before taking the bracelet out of his hat.
"Can you help me see how much this can sell for?"
The boss took the link, examined it carefully, and a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes.
He looked up incredulously: "Where...where did you get this bracelet?"
This bracelet is made of silver and isn't particularly valuable, but it's inlaid with a crystal-clear sapphire, which instantly increases its value.
Looking at his enthusiastic expression, Leon asked incredulously, "How much is this worth?"
Hearing that he was only thinking about money, the boss put on his glasses and looked at it carefully again. Then he nodded solemnly: "That's right. I can't be wrong about such a flawless ruby and sapphire. According to the current market, it can probably sell for around 200,000."
Two hundred thousand?
Lyon's eyes widened in shock.
You should know that while 200,000 might not be much in China, it's an astronomical figure here.
Lyon never expected that this small bracelet would be so valuable, and he was immediately stunned.
Seeing that Lyon seemed a little lost in thought, the boss couldn't help but ask, "How about it? It's a flat price of two hundred thousand. If you agree, come with me to get the money now."
However, before he could finish speaking, Leon snatched the bracelet back from the shopkeeper: "I'm not selling it!"
After saying that, he turned around and ran out.
Before he arrived, he never imagined that the bracelet would be so valuable.
Even if you sold him, you wouldn't get that much money!
He was extremely anxious, but he didn't realize that the two thugs at the door immediately followed him the moment he stepped out the door.
They've been lurking outside the pawnshop for years, and have become habitual offenders.
I never expected that this order would be worth so much money, especially since the other party is just a child!
Soon, Lyon was cornered in a dead-end alley.
Recognizing that the two men were notorious thugs on the street, Leon instinctively hid the bracelet behind his back.
But the two thugs had already set their sights on him, and knowing full well what he was talking about, they asked, "What are you hiding on your back? Show it to me!"
Leon shook his head, pretending to be nonchalant, and said, "Nothing."
Upon hearing this, the two thugs exchanged a glance and then gave a contemptuous smile.
"Stop pretending! Hand over your priceless bracelet now, or don't blame us for being impolite!"
Upon hearing this, Leon's expression changed, and he subconsciously tightened his grip on the bracelet. The woman stammered and denied, "I... I'm from the slums, I can't even afford to eat, how could I have a priceless bracelet... Brothers, don't joke around."
