Chapter 474 We are going to search your belongings
Huo Han sat down in a dimly lit bar. This was the black market exchange, an unknown underground world.
The boss is a tall and thin man. No one knows his name and everyone calls him "Shadow".
Shadow smiled when he saw Huo Han. "Huo Han, you completed the mission well. Here's your commission." Then, Shadow handed Huo Han a heavy suitcase. Huo Han nodded and patted the suitcase gently. "Shadow, I heard someone recommended that I meet the target of the mission?"
Shadow smiled and said, "Your reputation is already well-known here. Yes, they need someone to find the token, and you are qualified to meet him directly."
Huo Han's eyes flashed with excitement. "I know that many police officers and my men want to meet that guy. Now, as long as we find the token, we can meet him directly."
Shadow chuckled, "Indeed. They're all looking frantically right now, you need to speed up."
Huo Han immediately stood up and said, "Give me a map. I'm going to pick up the person who holds the token."
Shadow handed Huo Han a map and pointed to one of the locations: "This is where I saw the token last time. You can start from here."
Huo Han carefully put away the map and sighed softly: "Thanks, Shadow. Wait for me to come back."
The location marked on the map was an abandoned factory. Huo Han followed the map and soon arrived at his destination.
It was late at night, and the whole place was silent. Only the faint sounds of voices and footsteps could be heard from within the factory. Huo Han was wary, knowing there must be an ambush.
He approached quietly, his ear pressed against the wall, and heard the voices of a man and a woman talking inside. "Where is this token?" a woman's voice asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, I know where it's hidden." A man's voice responded.
Huo Han moved slowly, trying to find a place to get in. Suddenly, he found a small open window, and he jumped in gently and hid aside.
After Huo Han successfully escaped the scene, he quickly reunited with Captain Li and his team, who had already taken refuge in a nearby abandoned warehouse.
"Captain Li, I got the token." Huo Han handed the wooden box to Captain Li.
Captain Li took the wooden box, but frowned slightly, "Huo Han, are you sure this is a real token?"
Huo Han was shocked and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong? What's the problem?"
Captain Li opened the wooden box with a solemn expression, revealing the items inside. He immediately noticed something was wrong. "This is fake! The real keepsake has been replaced."
Huo Han was dumbfounded, then angrily smashed the shelves in the warehouse, "What's going on? How could it be replaced?"
A police officer whispered, "We encountered a man named Lian Haolong earlier. He stole something and then deliberately spread the news, causing us to be attacked by other teams."
Captain Li added, "We finally caught him and recovered the item, but somehow another team targeted him again. We checked before handing in the mission and realized it was a fake."
Huo Han clenched his fist in anger: "Who is Lian Haolong?"
"A cunning little thief with sophisticated methods, he is hard to catch." Captain Li sighed.
Huo Han was silent for a moment, then said calmly, "What should we do now?"
Captain Li pondered for a moment, "We must first find Lian Haolong. Perhaps he knows the whereabouts of the true token."
Huo Han nodded, "Okay, let's take action immediately."
In the next few days, Huo Han, Captain Li and others searched everywhere for Lian Haolong's whereabouts. They searched for Lian Haolong's old residence, questioned his acquaintances, and even dug up his past.
Following various clues, they finally found Lian Haolong in a dilapidated apartment building. He was about to leave, holding a wooden box similar to the one he had seen before.
Huo Han walked with firm steps, slowly heading towards the apartment building with a few of his most capable men.
The lights in the building were dim, and the echoes in the corridor made the atmosphere more tense. Everyone knew that this time it was for the token.
As they approached the room where Lian Lian Haolong was, they could feel a chill. The door slowly opened, and Lian Lian Haolong, who was sitting inside, looked at Huo Han with some surprise, a hint of surprise on his face, but he quickly regained his composure.
Huo Han said lightly: “Lian Lian Haolong, I didn’t expect you to be here.”
Lian Lian Haolong smiled easily: "Huo Han, why do I feel like you are here to settle accounts with me?"
Huo Han took a step closer, his eyes flashing with anger: "Why did you betray us and plot against your own people?"
Lian Lian Haolong shrugged. He knew clearly Huo Han’s hatred for betrayal. “You said I was the second-in-command, but do you really consider me one of your own? I’m just a pawn.”
Huo Han sneered: "It's too late for you to say anything now. Since you dared to betray us, you should know the consequences."
Lian Lian Haolong stood up. He knew he couldn't confront Huo Han head-on, but he still had his own trump card. "Do you think I did all this for no reason? Did I get what you promised me?"
Huo Han narrowed his eyes: "You mean..."
Lian Lian Haolong interrupted him: "Yes, I was used. But now what I want is not a promise, but something real."
Huo Han took a deep breath. He knew he couldn't act rashly at this moment. "Tell me, where is the real token?"
Lian Lian Haolong slowly walked to the window and pointed to a building in the distance, "It's there, but you have to let me leave first."
Huo Han frowned: "Do you think I will agree?"
Lian Lian Haolong smiled slightly: "Huo Han, although you are cruel and ruthless, you also know the rules. I will take you there, you get the real token, and then let me go. This is the best solution."
Huo Han stared at Lian Lian Haolong, feeling conflicted. He knew that letting Lian Lian Haolong go might bring him more trouble, but what he needed most now was the token.
Lian Lian Haolong's heart was as tense as a taut string. He had thought Huo Han might let him go, but when the night was quiet and everyone was asleep, when he tried to leave quietly, that cold voice immediately pierced the silence, shattering his hopes.
Lian Haolong, where do you want to go? Huo Han stood outside the house, holding a sharp dagger in his hand, his eyes cold and hard.
Lian Lian Haolong came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly, Huo Han, I just... just want to go to the bathroom.
Do you think I'm a fool? Huo Han snorted and walked closer to Lian Lian Haolong. His dagger was pressed tightly against Lian Lian Haolong's throat. The cold metal made Lian Lian Haolong shiver.
At this moment, movement began to spread elsewhere, and many people poked their heads out to see what was happening. Among them were several team members who had previously had a good relationship with Lian Lian Haolong. Seeing this scene, they were all stunned.
Huo Han, what are you doing? One of the men came out. He was a powerful figure in the team.
Ask your good friend what he wants to do. Huo Han did not let down his guard, the dagger still pressed against Lian Lian Haolong's throat. At this time, several other teams also came out. Seeing this situation, they obviously also found Lian Lian Haolong's behavior very suspicious. "Lian Haolong, why are you doing this?" A woman spoke, her eyes filled with confusion and disappointment.
Lian Lian Haolong smiled bitterly, I just don't want to be implicated. I know I did something wrong, but I don't want to die either.
The man's eyes widened. "You mean... you want to surrender to the enemy?"
Lian Lian Haolong didn't answer, but his silence spoke volumes.
At this time, a voice sounded: We want to search your belongings.
Lian Lian Haolong widened his eyes and said, "You can't treat me like this!"
But his protests went unanswered. Several men approached and began searching his belongings. As expected, they found a small wooden box containing the fake token that had been replaced.
You really betrayed us! There were tears in the woman's eyes, and it was obvious that she and Lian Lian Haolong had once had a deep relationship.
Huo Han snorted coldly and took the dagger back from Lian Lian Haolong's throat. "Take him away and keep him under guard. We don't need such a traitor."
Afterwards, Lian Lian Haolong was taken away by several people, and his fate was no longer in his own hands.
Huo Han looked at his back, feeling somewhat conflicted. He knew Lian Haolong did this out of fear, but in a place like this, trust was more important than life.
As night deepened, the still night wind rustled the fake token in Huo Han's hands. Silently, he walked to the camp and gently dropped it on the ground. This token was nearly identical to the original, and only careful examination could distinguish it.
Soon, one of the team members discovered the token. He picked it up and took a closer look, his face immediately darkening. The other team members also gathered around, looking at the token in their hands, their eyes filled with anger.
Lian Haolong! One of the team leaders shouted, his eyes fixed on Lian Haolong who was tied up at the side. "How can you be so shameless and dare to play the victim here?"
Lian Haolong's face turned pale. He was about to explain when he was roughly pulled up by another man. "Do you think you're so smart? You got the thing and you still want to cheat us?"
Lian Haolong's throat tightened, I really don't know if that was fake...but his explanation was not believed by anyone.
Try to argue with me again! The man slapped Lian Haolong in the face and then beat him up. The people from other teams watched but did not stop him.
Lian Haolong lay on the ground, his glasses cracked, blood from his nose and mouth oozing out, but no one sympathized with him. The other teams picked up the tokens and left, leaving only the injured Lian Haolong and Huo Han, who had been watching the fun.
When Huo Han was about to leave, he deliberately said, "You deserved it." He pretended to leave and quickly hid behind a nearby bush.
About half an hour later, when all around was quiet, Lian Haolong struggled to get up and groped in one direction. He obviously knew where something important was hidden.
Walking along a forest, Lian Haolong came to a seemingly ordinary stone. He turned it over, revealing a small hole with a wooden box inside. Just as he was about to open it, a cold voice came over. What good thing did you find?
Lian Haolong raised his head in horror, only to see Huo Han staring at him coldly, the dagger in his hand flashing with a faint cold light.
Huo Han, you... Lian Haolong's voice trembled.
I just want to know what's hidden inside. Huo Han's voice was calm, but the oppressive atmosphere was enough to make people feel his anger.
