By far, this assignment on Meng Qingxue was their biggest one to date.
After taking the money by force from Song Enya, they returned to Yishan Town. Originally, they vowed to take this money to do a small business, but the first thing they did upon reaching the county was visit a gambling den. Within two days, they had squandered away a large part of the money.
Following the leads that they had, Mu Yancheng’s men found their vehicle and searched the small gambling den.
The underground gambling den was one commonly seen in counties, having bullfighting games and such. The stakes were considered small compared to the gambling dens found in the capital. Still, each bet would cost thousands and tens of thousands. To those people in Yishan Town with a per capita income of mere two days or so, money spent here was considered an astronomical sum.

When the tracking team found the two men, both were playing in high spirits. Luo Hao was flippantly chewing on a cigarette while holding the poker cards in his hand and his eyes half squinting amid the smoke; meanwhile, Luo Qing was standing behind, watching his game with great interest.
Someone suddenly tapped on his shoulder.
Feeling displeased, Luo Qing swatted the hand aside. “Stop bothering me; the game is getting exciting now!”
“Are you Luo Qing?”
A man’s stiff and cold voice came from behind.
Startled, the kidnapper turned around when he saw a few tall, burly men in crisp, black suits standing behind. All were looking stern and deadly. The leader, especially, was staring at him with hawk-like eyes, as if he were dissecting him with a knife.
“W-Who... are you?” The criminal froze, swallowed hard, and asked with a stunned expression.
“Never mind who we are! Are you Luo Qing?”
A sudden realization seemed to have hit the man as his body started to shake. He probably had a vague idea of who these people were and took a stumble in guilt. Turned out that he was also a master of resourcefulness; hence, once he knew that this group of people was coming for him and his accomplice, he turned around with a start and fled for his life!
“Chase him!”
He ran to the entrance, quickly unlocked the vehicle, and started the van. When he saw that the men in black were about to catch up, he floored the gas pedal in a desperate attempt to escape!

In the first place, one had to know who these folks coming after him were.
Most of them were well-trained soldiers, who had already guessed what the two fugitives might do to escape. As such, they did something to the vehicle way beforehand. WIth the tyres ruthlessly punctured, the van skidded and the man almost flipped with the vehicle upon stepping on the accelerator.
Soaked in a cold sweat, Luo Qing could only cling on to the steering wheel in stunned desperation. He knew he could not run away anymore, but he dared not alight from the vehicle, either.
One of the men in black suits stepped forward, grabbed the door handle, tugged at it, and found that it had been locked from the inside.
Just when the criminal was feeling elated, who knew that the man in black was such a nasty creature, where he could ferociously pull open the locked door with the brute force of his hands?
“Get down and you had better behave yourself!”
By then, the kidnapper was sweating buckets. He saw, with his two eyes, the capability of this gang after him and did not dare to play truant. Knowing that he and Luo Hao were being watched, he obediently got out of the vehicle like a dog with its tail between the legs. After that, he squatted on the ground with his hands behind his head. His familiarity with the raiding drill attested his regular visits to the police station!
