Gu Bai rubbed his eyes and forced himself to calm down. “Where did that person use to live? Where did he often hang out? Did he have any friends he was closer to? We may find a breakthrough from these areas first. Let’s wait and see. If they don’t contact us, then we can only call the police.”
Lu Yanbin nodded and turned to make a phone call.
Gu Bai leaned back against the sofa and saw the Scottish Fold Cat approach him and paw him, so he got up to feed it. He touched its head, his hands trembling a little. Xiao Le had nothing to do with this whole thing. In other words, he was of no value to those people, unless they wanted to keep him as a hostage. The worst case scenario would be… He closed his eyes. If Xiao Le left him again, he would really go crazy.
Qi Le woke up and found himself in a shabby room. To be exact, he was tied to a chair in the room. He was lost for a moment. Then, he recalled what happened the morning and cold sweat came dripping down instantly. His first reaction was that he had been brought into trouble by that idiot. He looked around and soon found another person tied to the chair beside him. He whispered, “Yi hang, Yi hang. Fuck, are you dead or alive? Fucking idiot, open your eyes for me now!”
“You’re awake?”
Qi Le immediately quivered and quickly looked in the direction of the voice. He saw the door being opened and in came two men. The man in the front walked to the round table and sat down, while the one behind stood beside him and said nothing. Qi Le sized them up in fear. The one in charge looked about 30 years old. He appeared boorish, with a scar on his left eye. He was wearing a black tank top and revealed his strong biceps that were covered in tattoos. He had a toughness that was hard to describe. The man beside him was tall and had a simple, honest-looking face. But his stern expression made him seem like someone who wasn’t to be trifled with. Qi Le’s heart instantly froze. He thought to himself that if they started fighting, his little body wasn’t even enough to fill the gaps between their teeth.
The boss looked at him and asked, “What’s your name?”
“Zheng Xiaoyuan,” Qi Le spoke honestly and looked at him. “What about you, big brother?” The man couldn’t help squinting, his eyes glinting with a sharp light. Qi Le shrank back but decided to bite the bullet anyways. “Look, big brother. I don’t even know why you tied me up. I think you may have a bit of a problem with him. If you kill him, you will definitely not let me go. With my petite stature, there’s no way I can escape. I just want to know. If I am to die, I should at least know who killed me, right?”
The man didn’t expect him to be so honest and give such a thorough analysis. He was about to open his mouth when he suddenly saw the man on the other chair move. He turned to him immediately.

What the fuck is up with “Whaa?”! Qi Le couldn’t wait to pounce on him and kill him.

“I would like to ask you that as well,” Qi Le sighed and raised his chin. “Ask that big brother.”
Yi Hang looked up quickly and instantly saw the two men. The latter looked at him with a sneer. “Brother Hang, long time no see.”
Yi Hang blinked and blinked again. “Who are you? I lost my memory. “
The man said, “Don’t fucking play with me. After all these years of friendship, do you think I don’t know you? You can do anything to achieve your goal. You are more ruthless than anyone else. What is your relationship with this boy? Aside from the man surnamed Lu, I found that you’re quite close to this boy. Is that money hidden with him?”
“No, no, no, you’ve misunderstood. I really have amnesia.” Yi Hang shivered and looked pale. “I went to his house to get an inflatable doll. Really, I won’t lie to you.”
There was a cold gleam in the man’s eyes. He got up in a rage and wanted to give him a beating. He opened his mouth to curse at him, but didn’t expect to hear someone else speaking at the same time.
“Fuck! Do you think I’ll believe this fucking bullshit?!”
“Motherfucker. Shut your fucking mouth!”
Yi Hang, “=口=”
The man froze and put away his fist, turning to look at Zheng Xiaoyuan. He saw the latter staring at Yi Hang with an angry face. “Do you think that kind of reason can deceive this big brother? We’re already at this point. Our lives are in big brother’s hands. What else are you acting for?!”
Yi Hang, “=口=”
The man sat down again with a little admiration. “Yes, this kid knows how to keep up with the times.”
“I’m not keeping up with the times. I’m just more realistic.” Qi Le looked at him. “I don’t know what to call you, big brother?”
The man took the drink on the table, looked up and took a sip. “I was 15 when I got mixed up with gangsters. I fought hard and those who fought against me didn’t come to a good end either. Later, I got the title of “Brave Guy.” Everyone in this line calls me “Third Brother.”
Qi Le willingly went along. “Hello, Third Brother.”
“Hello,” Third Brother looked at him. “Do you have the money?”
“No.” Qi Le said hastily after taking a look at his expression, “But I know what you are talking about. It’s the two million, right?”
Third Brother paused and raised his eyebrows slightly. “What do you know? Do you know where the money is?”
Qi Le sighed, “I don’t know yet.”
Third Brother had sharp eyes. “What do you mean yet?”
“Third Brother, I’m a realistic person, so I’ll tell you the truth.” Qi Le said sincerely, “You can investigate me. I didn’t know him before. It was a coincidence after my injury that I lived in the same ward as him. My man and his man were friends, so we started to get closer.”
Third Brother nodded and motioned for him to continue.
Qi Le took a deep breath, his heart pounding. “I don’t know how he was injured… Does Third Brother know?”
“He did it himself. He was afraid that that Lu guy would look for him, so he deliberately injured himself. He wanted to pretend to have amnesia or go mad, and managed to delay him for a while.”Qi Le instantly relaxed, thinking to himself, indeed as expected. His guess was about the same. He was rather moved; he had finally found a breakthrough, a chance to live!

P.S. I know I usually use ge for older brother. But ge can also be like “big bro” or “big brother” or to address someone superior, and I didn’t want to use Third Ge because it just sounds awful. Anyways, lesson learned, will stick with older brother, instead of ge from now on. Apologies for the switch!
Thank you for the chapter ❤
