Chapter 84 - 84 Flame Dragon Organization_1
“Could it be that kind of special case?” Li Guoxing suddenly thought of another possibility.
Two years ago, he had handled a case, which was the most terrifying he had ever seen in his life.
At that time, Li Guoxing was part of the special case team. After continuous tracking and investigation, his team had finally found a clue. But just as they were ready to arrest the suspect, they were suddenly ordered to withdraw from the case.
Li Guoxing couldn’t agree with this. The team members had been working without rest for nearly ten days. They had finally found a clue and were on the brink of solving the case when an order came that removed everyone from the case. Regardless of whether others accepted it, Li Guoxing refused to, even going so far as to slam the table in an argument with the chief.
To placate him, the chief let slip a little information.
After hearing the chief’s explanation, Li Guoxing did not fully believe it and instead kept a silent watch on the progress of the case.
The case was taken over by three young men from Dragon City. They were neither police nor military, but belonged to a rather secretive department, one that Li Guoxing, despite decades in criminal investigation, had never heard of.
So, Li Guoxing’s curiosity was piqued; he wanted to see what these people, who had snatched his case away, were capable of.
The first time he attempted to track them, Li Guoxing was discovered.
Li Guoxing considered his stealth skills exceptional, but just as he approached within several dozen meters of the group, he was detected. Luckily, he was a part of the system and did not cause a big misunderstanding, but it was an awakening for the previously confident Li Guoxing, reminding him that there’s always someone better—the abilities of these individuals exceeded human limits. They could shatter rocks with their fists and leap to the second floor in one bound. Moreover, their senses were incredibly sharp; they could detect hostility from dozens of meters away.
Only then did Li Guoxing realize the chief’s words hadn’t been wrong—these individuals were indeed formidable. If such people were deployed against an enemy, sending ordinary personnel like his team would surely lead to unnecessary sacrifices.
And when the case was finally resolved and they left, Li Guoxing learned the origins of this group—they were from the Flame Dragon Organization of Yan Country.
The Flame Dragon Organization was a secret military group from Yan Country that dealt with special cases. Common people knew nothing about it, but those who did were aware of the power of the Flame Dragon Organization—it was a gathering place for the exceptional and extraordinary within Yan Country.
When Li Guoxing saw the dog that could transform, which belonged to Xu Fan, he immediately thought of the Flame Dragon Organization. If this dog possessed abilities beyond the ordinary, just like the Flame Dragon’s agents, that would explain everything.
Su Jingxue saw that Captain Li had fallen deep into thought and asked, “Captain Li, is there a problem?”
“Ah, no problem. I was just reminded of some unrelated matters. Check the information on the villa’s owner again; if a single dog can be so formidable, the owner of this house must be no simple figure,” he replied.
Su Jingxue nodded, picked up a cell phone connected to the internal network, and started looking up Xu Fan’s information.
Meanwhile, after leaving the house, Xu Fan hailed a taxi and raced toward Warehouse No. 74 in Area A of Xiangshui Bay Wharf.
Xu Fan took out a stack of pink 100-yuan bills from his pocket and threw it onto the driver’s seat, “No matter how many rules you break, get me to Xiangshui Bay Wharf as fast as you can. If we arrive within twenty minutes, the money’s yours.”
The cab driver, seeing the thick stack of bills Xu Fan threw over, which amounted to four or five thousand, immediately had dollar signs in his eyes and floored the accelerator. The taxi shot off like an arrow released from a bow.
Xiangshui Bay Wharf is an older wharf in Zhonghai City. Thirty years ago, it was the main port of Zhonghai City, but over the past two decades, with the city’s major infrastructure development and the establishment of four or five international mega-ports, Xiangshui Bay Wharf gradually became outdated, with its storage and cargo throughput ranking at the bottom among Zhonghai City’s ports.
In Area A of Xiangshui Bay Wharf, many warehouses had fallen into disrepair, facing the fate of scrapping.
Warehouse No. 74 was close to being decommissioned.
Song Qiang’s Jin Hui Company, although now primarily operating entertainment venues and underground gambling, had been involved in the construction material business before becoming prosperous.
Thus, Song Qiang owned several large warehouses at Xiangshui Bay to store construction materials.
Warehouse No. 74 used to be one of the warehouses where Song Qiang stored such materials. Even though Song Qiang had stopped the trade several years ago, he still retained the warehouse, occasionally using it to smuggle goods through the port or for other illegal activities.
In the past, relying on his tough connections, Song Qiang had kidnapped several business rivals and brought them to this warehouse. Of course, they were blindfolded during the kidnapping, so the victims had no idea where they were.
This warehouse contained Song Qiang’s complete set of execution tools, which could be used to inhumanely torture the kidnapped people until they submitted.
If someone proved too stubborn to submit, it was no issue either. The ocean was just outside the door, and Song Qiang had two small boats at his disposal. Once, two particularly stubborn business rivals were beaten by Song Qiang for three whole days and still refused to yield. In a fit of rage, Song Qiang put the men in burlap sacks with two 200-pound iron weights attached and dumped them into the sea from the boats. To this day, their bodies have yet to be found by the police.
Today, Song Qiang’s face no longer bore the appearance of a pig’s head, although it was still somewhat swollen. But his original facial contours were recognizable.
Song Qiang’s face was filled with a vengeful pleasure, and his eyes gleamed maliciously.
Once he abducted Xu Fan’s daughter, Song Qiang was confident he could threaten Xu Fan to come here. He wanted Xu Fan to watch with his own eyes as he killed his daughter and then sink a despairing Xu Fan into the sea.
Only by completely eradicating Xu Fan could Song Qiang quell the rage in his heart.
As for Xu Fan’s extraordinary personal combat skills, Song Qiang had considered them too. He specifically called in a very powerful martial expert through his nominal master’s connections.
With the expert in place, Xu Fan’s visit would undoubtedly be a one-way trip.
