Chapter 368: Chapter 365: Negotiation

Shanghai, an abandoned lumberyard in the North Suburban Valley.

The entire lumberyard occupies a considerable area. Nestled deep within the valley, one derelict factory building after another rises from the ground, with numerous decayed logs strewn about, piled into heaps. Clearly, it has been deserted for many years.

Xiao Tian drove to the entrance of the North Suburban Valley. Because the road was narrow, Xiao Tian had to get out of the car and proceed on foot.

The Jin Zhan brothers chose such a ghostly place. They must have planned something; the lumberyard is a labyrinth of abandoned factory ruins. Visibility is extremely low, even if the opposition had a hidden army here, Xiao Tian would find it difficult to detect.

At the moment, as Xiao Tian quickened his pace, he was also extremely vigilant.

At the same time, he felt a trace of nervousness inside.

Frankly speaking, Jin Feng and Jin Zhan, the two brothers, were nothing to Xiao Tian. Xiao Tian had braved the depths of jungles, stood firm against temples, battled fierce beasts, and yet his heart remained unmoved,

Nervousness was his biggest weakness, while calmness, in certain situations, could unleash greater power, even turning the tables against death.

In countless life-and-death experiences over the years, any loss of calmness could have cost him his life on the spot, never to rise again.

But this time was different. Because Yu Ningxue was in their hands. An important person was in their hands, and as Xiao Tian advanced, he kept strategizing in his mind.

Yu Ningxue was in their hands. Xiao Tian had already lost all initiative. Moreover, Xiao Tian didn’t believe that even if he gave them the money, they would release Yu Ningxue.

As Xiao Tian pondered, he unknowingly traversed the path and arrived at the wide, dilapidated gate of the lumberyard. He took a deep breath and pushed the door open.

”Hahaha. Welcome, welcome, our Chief Official Xiao!”

As Xiao Tian entered the gate, a burst of laughter was heard. On the east side of Xiao Tian, a black car was parked there. The window rolled down, and Jin Zhan stuck his head out, grinning at Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian’s gaze was indifferent, and he directly asked, ”Where’s the person?”

”Hahaha.” Jin Zhan laughed, stepping out of the car. His gaze at Xiao Tian also held a hint of murderous intent.

If it weren’t for Xiao Tian, they wouldn’t have suffered such a setback in Shanghai. They had lost so many drug dens.

Therefore, this time, the Jin Zhan brothers never intended for Xiao Tian and Yu Ningxue to return alive!

Jin Zhan laughed on the surface, ”Chief Official Xiao, a few days ago, you gave me a hard time. With just your presence, you took care of quite a few of my elite men. But I’m curious how much of your strength you can exert in front of that stunning officer?”

Xiao Tian’s expression gradually darkened as he tried to suppress his anger, ”Where’s the person?”

”Why the rush!” Jin Zhan sneered, extending his hand, ”Where’s the 30 million US Dollars we demanded?”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Tian directly took out the bank card prepared by Bai Tao from his pocket, and said flatly, ”It’s ready here. You can call the Shanghai Bank to confirm it first, but I need to see the person first!”

Looking at the bank card in Xiao Tian’s hand, Jin Zhan’s eyes filled with greed. With this money, they could continue to set up drug dens elsewhere!

At this moment, Jin Zhan laughed, helplessly saying, ”Alright, alright. Since Chief Official Xiao is so cautious, we’ll show some sincerity.”

After saying that, Jin Zhan shouted, ”Old Third! Bring our beautiful officer out!”

After Jin Feng’s voice, Xiao Tian’s gaze immediately moved to where Jin Zhan was looking. He saw a muscular man named Old Third dragging Yu Ningxue, who was tied up with ropes, from a derelict factory.

Old Third was physically strong, with several scars on his muscles, clearly indicating he had been through many battles.

Old Third leered at Yu Ningxue, tied up with ropes, with a perverse look. The perfect figure under the uniform made Old Third drool, and he mischievously looked at Xiao Tian, saying, ”Officer, if you didn’t come, I’m afraid I couldn’t resist the uniform temptation!”

”Mm!!”

Hearing Old Third’s lewd words, Yu Ningxue, whose mouth was covered, was both angry and ashamed, and she headbutted Old Third fiercely.

Having killed countless times over the years, Old Third had developed a fiery temper. Seeing Yu Ningxue bump into him, a vicious look instantly appeared on Old Third’s face, and he raised his big hand to slap Yu Ningxue’s face.

”Bitch, dare you hit me?”

”Stop!” Before Old Third could strike, Jin Zhan directly intervened, ”Chief Officer Xiao came with good faith to cooperate with us. We must not be disrespectful!”

Hearing Jin Zhan’s words, Old Third snorted coldly, saying nothing more.

Meanwhile, Yu Ningxue was equally anxious.

”Xiao Tian, you shouldn’t have come. They never intended to let you return alive from the start!” Yu Ningxue thought despairingly.

At this moment, Jin Zhan extended his hand, ”Alright, Chief Official Xiao. You’ve seen the person; now the money should be handed over, right?”

Xiao Tian glanced at Yu Ningxue, giving her a reassuring look, then walked to Jin Zhan with the bank card in his hand.

Xiao Tian extended his hand to pass the bank card over. Jin Zhan took the card, then sneered, pulling out a knife with his left hand and swiftly stabbed it into the back of Xiao Tian’s hand.

”Tear...”

In an instant, blood gushed out, and Xiao Tian gritted his teeth in pain.

”Hahahahahahaha!” Following that, Jin Zhan laughed arrogantly and said proudly, ”How does it feel, Chief Official Xiao? Feels good, doesn’t it? Hahaha!”

Xiao Tian suppressed his anger, saying in a deep voice, ”Alright. You have the money, can I take the person now?”

”Take her? Chief Official Xiao, are you kidding?”

Before Jin Zhan could answer, another male voice emerged from the black car in front.

It was Jin Zhan’s brother, Jin Feng, speaking.

At that moment, Jin Feng opened the car door and stepped out, scornfully glancing at Xiao Tian, ”Officer Xiao Tian, it’s an honor to meet you. I am Jin Feng, doing some simple business in Vietnam. We are well aware of your skills. If we release her now, we brothers would be doomed.”

Xiao Tian demanded harshly, ”Then what do you propose?”

Jin Feng sneered, ”We had also asked for a helicopter. Once we board, we’ll naturally release this lovely officer.”

”You!”

Xiao Tian’s face darkened with anger, clenching his fists in fury. Blood dripped from his injured right hand,

Jin Feng saw Xiao Tian’s emotional state, pulled out a handgun from his coat, and pressed it against Yu Ningxue’s temple, coldly smiling, ”Chief Official Xiao, I urge you to stay calm. Bullets have no eyes...”
