Chapter 176 As long as I am here, nothing will happen to you
Xu Man also wanted to say a few words to Xu Jun, but was stopped by Zhang Chao: "We didn't lie to you, did we? Your brother is fine now, but it's hard to say what the situation will be like later.
The leader has been waiting for you, go ahead, don’t make him wait anxiously.”
Xu Man was pushed by Zhang Chao and came to a dilapidated room.
The dim kerosene lamp cast a very long shadow of a man. Xu Man looked at the man's back, reached into the briefcase he carried with him, and tightly grasped the dagger.
He asked anxiously, "Who are you? What do you want to do by bringing me here?"
The man turned around slowly and said with a smile: "Beauty, long time no see!"
"Huang He?! How could it be you?!" Xu Man asked in surprise.
Huang He: "You know my ability. I have someone protecting me. It's easy for me to become a minor official."
Xu Man: "Why did you bring us here?"
Huang He spread his hands, looking uninhibited, and said, "You are unwilling to cooperate with the organization's new policies. Of course, I asked you to come here to promote the organization's policies."
Xu Man: "I have already handed over my shop, and my brother is willing to sign. Can you let us go now?"
Huang He: "Zhang Chao didn't say anything else when he came to find you? You can't leave unless the things are in place!"
Xu Man: "Ten small yellow croakers, did the organization also instruct you to ask us for them?"
Huang He: "It's so cold, how can we carry out the mission here without any reward?"
Xu Man: "You kidnapped civilians in the name of your organization and extorted large sums of money. Aren't you afraid that your crimes will be exposed?"
Huang He shook his head and sneered, "Are we kidnapping ordinary people? You black-hearted capitalists have exploited and oppressed the workers. How much money have you made from the national crisis? Don't you know?
You are just rats crossing the street, and everyone can kill you! Go ahead and report us, and see whether the outside world believes what you say or what we say.
I won't waste my words on you. If you become my woman, I will protect you and your family and keep them from being bullied. How about that?"
Xu Man: "What if I don't agree?"
Huang He said with a lewd smile: "Then I can only use force. No woman can refuse me. I think you have been thinking about this for a long time, and today you can finally get what you want."
As Huang He spoke, he approached Xu Man.
Xu Man turned around and ran, only to find that the door of the room had been closed at some point and could not be opened no matter how hard she tried.
Huang He grinned and said, "You can't run away. Just follow me obediently. It will be good for you and your family!"
Zhou Rong was just about to slip out of the space, use an axe to break the lock on the gate, rescue Xu Man, and beat up Huang He, when he found Wang Chengnan coming here with a group of police officers.
It would be easy to be exposed if he left the space at this moment, so Zhou Rong continued to watch the development of things in the space...
The noise from the police subduing Zhang Chao and the others attracted Huang He's attention. Through the window, he saw a group of police officers fighting with their men, and several police officers were coming towards this side with guns raised.
"Damn it! All my work was in vain!"
Huang He cursed and didn't want to be caught, so he planned to escape through the back window.
It would be difficult to catch this man if he ran away. When Zhou Rong was about to attack him, Xu Man was one step faster. He took out a dagger from his bag, rushed towards Huang He who was climbing through the window, and stabbed him between his buttocks.
Huang He's soul left his body, and he was in so much pain that he didn't even have the strength to call for his mother to help...
When Wang Chengnan and his men broke into the room, they saw Huang He with half of his body hanging by the window, motionless, with a shiny dagger stuck in his buttocks.
Blood flowed down the dagger, and a pool of blood soon accumulated under the window.
Xu Man looked at the pool of blood, and saw Wang Chengnan and several police officers coming in. She realized that she might have caused a death, and pointed at Huang He, sobbing, "He tied me up... and wanted to molest me... I had no choice but to do it..."
Wang Chengnan was furious when he heard this, and asked with a dark face, "Did he kidnap you?"
Xu Man nodded gently and sobbed, "Well, they threatened me with a gun and arrested my brother. They said they would kill him if I didn't come. They also arrested my parents."
In Wang Chengnan's eyes, Xu Man is a very strong woman. Unless she is forced to that point, she will not compromise, let alone cry.
So he dared not reveal his feelings.
But now, Huang He, this beast, actually dared to hurt Xu Man? !
Wang Chengnan clenched his fists, walked quickly to Huang He's side, violently pulled out the dagger from his buttocks, grabbed him, threw him to the ground, and kicked him twice in the stomach.
Huang He lost his three souls and seven spirits and almost ascended to heaven on the spot.
Wang Chengnan: "Xiao Li, take this man back and interrogate him. He dared to kidnap and extort civilians in the name of the organization. He is so arrogant! If we don't investigate him strictly, the foundation of the organization will be destroyed by them sooner or later!"
Public Security Captain Li Ziping looked at Huang He's dying appearance and said, "Please rest assured, Commander, we will never let any bad guy go!"
After Huang He was taken away, Wang Chengnan found Xu Man shivering, and hurriedly took off his coat, put it on her, and said softly: "It's okay, it's all over, I'll take you home."
Xu Man asked anxiously, "Huang He's injury looks quite serious. He has a strong backer. If he dies, will I be involved in a murder lawsuit?"
Wang Chengnan: "As long as I'm here, nothing will happen to you."
Xu Man felt warm when she heard these words, but she felt that she shouldn't say them to Wang Chengnan. However, she was too embarrassed to ask in detail, so she could only change the subject: "Thank you, how did you know I was here?"
Wang Chengnan: "The higher-ups were eager to complete the task of public-private partnership, so they assigned targets to each district. Since the district Federation of Industry and Commerce was short of manpower, they temporarily invited some outside personnel to help, and clearly stipulated that no violence could be used.
But there are always some people who do not take the organization's orders seriously and use this opportunity to seek personal gain. Huang He and Zhang Chao did just that.
Not only was Xu Yun arrested, they also captured several children of wealthy merchants and used them as threats, forcing everyone to pay gold to ransom them.
The organization recovered a large amount of gold and silver, and also prohibited private transactions with gold and silver. Those wealthy businessmen could not afford so much gold at home, so they could only exchange it on the black market.
Captain Li is my comrade-in-arms. He has an informant in the black market. After I went to the Federation of Industry and Commerce to learn some things, I went to him for help.
He happened to receive information from an informant saying that someone was exchanging large amounts of gold. We followed the clues to find those wealthy businessmen. After learning what happened, we guessed that Xu Yun had also been kidnapped by Huang He and his men.
We didn't know where Huang He and his men were based, so we could only investigate slowly, which took quite a bit of time. Fortunately, Uncle Xu was smart and kept talking to Zhang Chao along the way, which attracted the attention of the brothers who were secretly investigating. Then we were able to follow you quietly.
Sorry for being late and scaring you."
Xu Man shook her head and whispered, "No need to apologize. I should thank you. Without you, I would not be able to escape from here tonight. Why are you so nice to me? I want to hear the truth."
Xu Man hesitated for a while and decided to ask the questions in his mind.
She is not a person who drags her feet. Her identity is too special and she doesn't want to waste Wang Chengnan's time...
