"Westbrook, I guarantee it with my life. If you miss this opportunity, it will be gone." The owner looked at us with fierce eyes and tried his best to persuade the man on the other end of the phone.
His life is currently in our hands, and there is nothing wrong with that.
"I'm starting to get a little interested. What kind of deal is it for you, a coward like you, to risk your life?" the other end of the phone asked with interest.
"It's really a good deal, but I'm not very capable, so I want to take advantage of you, Westbrook, so that I can get some benefits as well." It seems that the owner of the house has done this kind of thing without any help.
"If the transaction dissatisfies me, you see how I deal with you." The other end of the phone said viciously.
"I guarantee your satisfaction, I'll wait for you at home." The owner of the house looked determined, and it seemed that deception was his strong point.
"Well, that's it, see you in twenty minutes." Westbrook said and hung up the phone.
"Okay." The owner put down the phone and looked at us with an aggrieved look.
"Whether your leg can be saved depends on your performance." Heizi smiled and put away his hands and stood up.
"Who is this Westbrook?" Zhou Jiaonan was still cautious.
"He is a second-generation rich man. I met that person through him. They have a good relationship." The owner of the house quickly explained.
"Then does this person have a bodyguard?" Zhou Jiaonan said, his face turned cold.
"This..." The owner of the house was obviously panicked.
"Okay, you still want to trip us up." Heizi said and grabbed the owner of the house by the waist. With a sudden force, I could hear the click of the owner's ribs even from a meter away.
"Ah..." the owner of the house screamed, and this time he rolled his eyes in real pain.
The man who led us saw Heizi's tricks and was so scared that he was locked in the corner and did not dare to move.
"Forgive me, I don't dare anymore..." Heizi let go of him for a long time before he regained his composure.
"How many bodyguards are there? Do they have any weapons?" Zhou Jiaonan stepped forward slowly.
"Four bodyguards, no weapons." The owner of the house looked pale, and Heizi was really hurt by this.
"Get up, you still have fifteen minutes to adjust your mood." Heizi squatted down and directly lifted the owner to the sofa and put him down.
"It's just a few bodyguards, nothing to do." Seeing the owner of the house looking at me, I explained with a smile.
Hearing what I said, his expression became even more painful.
I guess he must be thinking that if it doesn't bother you, you still want to torture me.
"What? You're not convinced? Fortunately, I was the one who did it. Don't look at his clean skin, but his attack was inconsequential. If he did it, he would probably kill you." Heizi pointed at me and looked at the owner of the house.
"I don't dare, I don't dare..." The owner of the house glanced at me in panic and quickly averted his eyes.
Heizi straightened up, turned his head and blinked at me.
I have never felt that time passes so slowly. I don’t know how many times I have looked at my watch.
"Why aren't you here?" Seeing that twenty-five minutes had passed, I angrily rushed to the owner of the house.
Maybe he believed Heizi's lies, but now he is more afraid of me than Heizi. As soon as I get close, he trembles with fear.
"It's normal for these rich people not to be punctual..." the owner's voice trembled.
At this moment, the sound of a car braking came from the alley.
"Here we come..." The owner of the house looked sideways at the door in panic.
"Be careful." Heizi said and showed the gun in his arms.
"I know..." The owner of the house stood up slowly and swallowed hard.
"Dong dong dong, open the door..." There was a violent knock on the door, followed by an impatient voice from outside the door.
Zhou Jiaonan and I ducked and hid behind the living room wall, while Heizi was half-crouching behind the sofa in the living room.
"Westbrook, come on, please come inside..." came the voice of the owner of the house.
"Why do you look so bad? Where did you go fooling around last night?" Westbrook's nagging voice sounded.
"It's true that nothing can be hidden from your eyes." The owner's voice came closer and closer.
"Okay, you guys stay here." Westbrook's voice sounded like he was turning his head to speak.
"Yes." From the sound of it, the owner of the house didn't lie to us. There should be four bodyguards.
"Wei Shao, please take a seat." The owner of the house led Wei Shao to sit on the sofa, which happened to be facing the door, which was the sofa where Heizi was hiding.
"You..." At this moment, he looked up and saw Zhou Jiaonan and I standing by the wall.
"Don't move, don't scream." Heizi stood up suddenly, strangled Wei Shao's neck, and thrust the dagger at him.
"Are you looking for death?" Wei Shao thought it was the owner of the house who was planning on him, and now he glared at the owner.
"Put down the knife." Four bodyguards rushed in immediately.
Zhou Jiaonan and I launched at the same time, and in the blink of an eye the four bodyguards were knocked unconscious by us.
"Who are you?" Westbrook looked at us with some fear.
"Westbrook, that friend of yours went to a hotel to experience life and killed someone..." the owner of the house quickly came out to explain.
"This..." Westbrook also saw the shivering waiter hiding in the corner.
"Tell me, where is he?" I smiled and walked forward.
The injury on my body just now started to hurt again, but I can't show it now.
"Do you know who I am?" Westbrook seemed to be used to being arrogant, and he still wanted to scare us.
"If your friend kills someone, you are an accomplice. If you don't explain, you are harboring the murderer." Zhou Jiaonan made Westbrook speechless with one sentence.
"I'm a good citizen, I'll tell you where he lives." Westbrook rolled his eyes and immediately became a stranger.
"See, learn from it." Heizi rolled his eyes at the owner of the house.
"But we don't really trust you, why don't you lead the way yourself?" Zhou Jiaonan is not that easy to fool.
"My friend is not simple. He has powerful people behind him. Don't blame me for not warning you." Westbrook's face changed immediately.
"Ci'ao, I thought you were honest." Heizi said and punched Westbrook in the leg.
"Ah..." This pretty boy has thin skin and tender flesh, and his tolerance is naturally very low. Heizi knocked him to pieces with one punch.
"I'll take you there, don't fight..." Westbrook didn't have any arrogance at all. He fell on the sofa and almost cried.
"Let's go, don't pretend to be dead." Heizi leaned over and lifted Westbrook up.
"What should they do?" Just as he was about to go out, Zhou Jiaonan frowned and looked at the owner and waiter.
"Wei Yucheng." I called in a low voice.
"The general is here." Wei Yucheng appeared immediately.
"Let them sleep." I looked at the two and said coldly.
"Understood." Before the two of them understood the situation, Wei Yucheng had already stepped forward.
The two of them trembled for a moment, then fell to the ground motionless.
"Tie these up by the way." I said looking at the bodyguards lying on the ground.
Wei Yucheng immediately cut off the electrical wires in the house owner's house and tied up the four bodyguards tightly.
Seeing me talking to the air, and then wires flying in the air, and then tied to the four bodyguards, Westbrook's face turned pale with fear.
"Are you alchemists?" Westbrook looked at us in surprise.
Hearing his words, I was shocked. He was obviously an ordinary person, but knowing the word alchemist, his friend must be an alchemist.
If this is the case, then crabapples and peonies are really in danger.
"Who is that friend of yours?" I suppressed my anger and stepped forward.
"My friend is an ordinary person, and there are people like you around him." Wei Sha saw my method, and was naturally frightened at this moment, so he confessed without hesitation.
"Hurry up." Zhou Jiaonan urged with a frown, and stepped forward to open the door.
But she didn't go out right away. She just stuck her head out and looked around for a while, and then waved to us.
"Does anyone else know you're here?" After getting in the car, Zhou Jiaonan glared at Westbrook.
"No, I happened to be outside, so I came right over." Westbrook was held in my arms at the moment, and he didn't dare to lie.
"Take out your phone." Zhou Jiaonan said and stretched out his hand.
"Guide the way." Heizi turned his head and shouted angrily.
Westbrook quickly gave a general direction, and Zhou Jiaonan took Westbrook's phone and threw it out the window.
"Who are you?" Seeing Zhou Jiaonan pulling out a gun and loading a bullet in the passenger seat, Westbrook's face became more and more horrified.
"It's someone you can't afford to offend." Zhou Jiaonan glanced slightly sideways and said something so domineering that even I was shocked by her.
"I can give you money. I have a lot of money at home." Westbrook probably misunderstood what Zhou Jiaonan meant and thought we were going to kill people and silence them.
"If something happens to our people, no amount of money will be enough for you." It was Heizi who spoke this time, and I believe his anger at this moment is genuine.
I even believe that if something happens to Haitang and Peony, our experience and practice will stop here, because none of these people can survive.
