CHAPTER 191: CHAPTER 190 JIAO (3/3)

The Siamese boxer was thrown by Ba Yu, hitting the ground hard.

Crack!

A sharp breaking sound ensued, and the Siamese boxer’s neck twisted at an unnatural angle, dead beyond doubt.

Ba Yu lay on the ground, gave Yang Chen a grateful look, and fainted.

Yang Chen looked at the unconscious Ba Yu, his expression slightly grim.

He gestured to Sun Yue hiding in the corner, signaling her to take Ba Yu away.

Sun Yue responded swiftly, immediately coming out to drag Ba Yu back to a hidden corner.

Then Yang Chen directed Sun Yue to take Ye Xin’s place.

Ye Xin quickly rushed over to meet up with Yang Chen.

Seeing Ye Xin, Yang Chen asked, "Wife, how well do you know this place? Who else is inside?"

Ye Xin shook her head and told Yang Chen, "You know my previous state, I came over as soon as I got the intel about the base, didn’t really have time to investigate."

"Alright then!" Yang Chen had to admire Ye Xin’s courage given her skill.

"However!" Ye Xin said, "From my experience in wiping out these hideouts, their boss usually sends everyone to fight when a battle erupts, buying himself time to escape. They don’t show any concern for their men, using them like disposable tools. I’ve researched ’Viper’ before; their personnel replenishes incredibly fast, almost like they have a dedicated training base. I think that’s related."

Yang Chen nodded; he encountered the same issue when he exterminated ’Viper’ in the past.

Viper’s boss would deploy all his subordinates to fight the enemy, allowing himself to escape.

The real confidential information remained in the hands of these bosses.

And these bosses were the link between the members of ’Viper’.

"Let’s go!" Yang Chen said gravely, "Get inside!"

Ye Xin nodded, following Yang Chen as they headed inside the main part of the factory.

Despite the factory’s dilapidated appearance from the outside, upon entering the hall, the opulence of Siamese-style architecture greeted their eyes.

The room was a complete mess.

Furniture and decor lay scattered in disarray.

One or two women curled up in the corner, while a few others lay dead.

Ye Xin said, "Their boss killed these women for fear they might reveal his whereabouts; I’ve seen this before."

Yang Chen nodded and spoke to the two women in Siamese, "Where did your boss go?"

The two women shook their heads fearfully, begging for mercy.

Yang Chen helplessly raised his gun and asked, "Tell me now!"

Seeing the gun, the two women were terrified and quickly pointed inside, "Inside! He ran inside, there’s a basement!"

Yang Chen nodded, looking at Ye Xin.

Ye Xin looked at Yang Chen in surprise, asking, "When did you learn Siamese?"

Yang Chen shrugged, "I spent some time on the border earlier, that’s when I learned it."

"So fluently?" Ye Xin was a bit skeptical.

"I stayed there for two months, often interacted with the locals, so I picked it up," Yang Chen explained.

Ye Xin nodded slightly, not questioning further.

In the past, Wei Xueqing told her that Yang Chen spoke Lancy and Federation languages. She didn’t expect him to know Siamese now too, which, together with Flame Country language, made it four languages! Quite impressive!

The two of them approached the basement cautiously and stepped inside.

The basement was very dark, with nothing visible.

Ye Xin told Yang Chen to wait, then fired a flare inside.

The basement was illuminated.

The two immediately spotted a hidden door made from a cabinet that wasn’t fully closed.

They rushed out and saw a man and woman hastily escaping.

These two were no match for Ye Xin and Yang Chen and were quickly caught up.

The boss was a chubby man about 1.6 meters tall, while the woman was stunningly beautiful, no wonder the man took her along even while fleeing.

Seeing Yang Chen and Ye Xin trap him, the man exclaimed in fear, "You even killed the black fist fighters?"

Yang Chen pointed his gun at the man, asking, "If you don’t want to die terribly, tell me everything you know!"

The man immediately pointed a gun at the woman in his arms, threatening, "Don’t come over, if you approach, I’ll kill her!"

Seeing this, Yang Chen frowned; he hated it when people used hostages to bargain.

With his capability, he could have easily dealt with Qian Hai and the nine thugs if not for the hostages, forcing him to act cautiously and comply with the enemy’s movements.

He detested this feeling.

Yang Chen stared at the man, "I warn you, don’t do anything that crosses my line!"

Ye Xin snapped angrily, "Are you even a man, using a woman as a shield!"

The man exclaimed fearfully, "You’ve killed the black fist fighters already, I’m no match for you, let me go, and this woman and money, I have lots of money, are yours!"

"Don’t force me to act!" Yang Chen aimed at the man’s head, "I’m not interested in this woman at all, nor do I know her. If you don’t surrender by the count of three, your head will be blown off!"

Upon hearing this, the man glanced at Ye Xin and then at the woman in his arms, realizing Yang Chen was speaking the truth.

"One!" Yang Chen started counting.

The man’s eyes darted nervously.

"Two!"

Suddenly, a fierce glint flashed in the man’s eyes.

"Ah!" The woman screamed as she was pushed towards Yang Chen, while the man instantly turned to flee.

Ye Xin immediately shot at the man’s legs and arms.

Yang Chen quickly caught the woman, but his hands were stained with blood.

He looked and saw a dagger embedded in the woman’s back!

The man had stabbed the woman to prevent Yang Chen from acting!

The dagger was buried to the hilt, the wound deep.

The woman was scarcely breathing.

She stared at the sky in terror, eyes wide.

Yang Chen could see a hint of longing.

"Beloved... I’m coming." The woman reached out to the sky...

Then... she fell heavily.

She was dead.

Yang Chen took a deep breath, covered the woman’s eyes, and stood up.

Indeed, too many had been harmed by ’Viper’.

This woman, captured by the boss of ’Viper’s base in Gu Gu City, seemingly had her lover killed by ’Viper’ too.

It wasn’t until the last second of her life that she was truly freed.

’Viper’s boss, shot in the limbs by Ye Xin, lay on the ground howling.

Ye Xin pressed her gun to his neck and asked in Federation Language, "Speak! Who tasked you with the mission in Flame Country?"

Yang Chen stepped forward, translating in Siamese.

The man froze, glanced at them, then burst into hysterical laughter.

He laughed while crying out, "Who would have thought, a flawless plan would provoke the wrong people!"

He looked up at them with a vicious gleam in his eyes, gritting, "I can tell you his name, but you’ll never find him because they’re too mysterious!"

The man uttered a word in broken Flame Language: "Jiao!"

After speaking, the man collapsed, unmoving.

Ye Xin grabbed the man’s head, pried open his mouth, and exclaimed angrily, "Poisoned!"
