"She Haoqiang, right?"
"Yes."
["Truth."]
Wang Defa and She Haoqiang were both shocked by the mechanical voice that suddenly sounded beside their ears.
"Boss Qin, this is…"
Qin Siyang placed the bird-shaped lie detector from his arms onto the side, "A lie detector. To make sure there's nothing wrong with your answers. I'm not that familiar with you, so I need to use some methods. Don't mind it."
"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare," She Haoqiang nodded, "Mr. Qin, rest assured, I'll absolutely tell the truth!"
"Since your boss Du Wei wanted you to kill Afa, why did you help Afa?"
"First, Afa and I have worked together for many years. We do have some friendship. Second, I had long heard of Mr. Qin's great name. If I had a chance to follow Afa and get connected to Mr. Qin, that's naturally better than always doing blade-edge work under Du Wei."
["Truth."]
"You're quite straightforward."
"Mr. Qin is a big figure in the safe zone, while I'm just a long worm. In front of Mr. Qin, lying has no meaning."
["Truth."]
"You said you did blade-edge work under Du Wei. What exactly did you usually do?"
"Mainly killed people."
["Truth."]
"Killed what kind of people?"
"Any kind. As long as Du Wei gave the order, I'd do it, then collect money from him. When Du Wei had no jobs, I'd resell ingredients and tools to earn the price difference to make a living."
["Truth."]
"A killer? Interesting," Qin Siyang stroked his chin, "How many people in your family?"
She Haoqiang hesitated for a moment, glanced at the bird-shaped lie detector, and finally answered in a low voice, "Besides me, there's a paralyzed younger sister."
["Truth."]
"How did she become paralyzed?"
"Last year my enemies broke two sections of her spine."
["Truth."]
Qin Siyang's gaze shifted.
From the sound of it, She Haoqiang's sister's injury did not seem too difficult to treat.
"Where are the people who injured your sister?"
"I killed them all."
"Where is your sister?"
"I have a hidden place where I settled her. There's water and food there. She won't starve."
Qin Siyang's gaze slowly swept over She Haoqiang's body. She Haoqiang lowered his head respectfully and said nothing.
"What Afa and the others and I did today can't be known by outsiders. Do you understand?"
Hearing this, She Haoqiang knew Qin Siyang was going to kill to silence him and remove future trouble. His eyes suddenly dimmed, "I… I understand."
Wang Defa also heard the meaning behind Qin Siyang's words, but he did not dare open his mouth to beg for She Haoqiang's life. He could only knock his head heavily on the ground beside him, hoping Qin Siyang would change his mind.
"Why are you two in such a hurry? What I said is that outsiders can't know. If it's one of our own, then it doesn't matter."
She Haoqiang looked at Qin Siyang in surprise, "Mr. Qin…"
"You put in effort to save Afa's life. That counts as helping me. I'm willing to give you a chance."
She Haoqiang immediately said, "Mr. Qin, please speak!"
"Didn't Afa want to return tooth for tooth to Du Wei? I don't want the three of them going back to that broken place to busy themselves anymore. You handle this matter."
"If you succeed and clean things up properly, come find me. I'll let you become a sequence ability user just like Afa and the others. If you fail, die cleanly yourself and don't drag me into wiping your mess. In that case, I'll cure your sister's paralysis so you can die with peace. But if the job isn't done and you don't even die cleanly, then don't blame me for sending your sister to reunite with you."
"These are my conditions. If you agree, leave your sister's address and set off as soon as possible. If you don't agree, leave your head."
After hearing this, She Haoqiang's eyes burned bright, and he was speechless for a moment.
In his whole life, this was the first time he had heard that no matter whether a job succeeded or not, there would still be a reward.
Wang Defa bumped him, "Old Snake, Boss Qin is asking you!"
Only then did She Haoqiang come back to his senses. He knocked his head toward Qin Siyang, "Thank you, Mr. Qin… Boss Qin, for giving me this chance! I will absolutely not disappoint Boss Qin's expectations!"
["Truth."]
Wang Defa and She Haoqiang both looked excited. Two burly men in their thirties and forties gripped each other's hands tightly, their faces flushed bright red.
"Old Snake, Boss Qin is giving you a chance. This is great!"
"Afa, stop getting carried away for now."
"Ah! Boss Qin, what are your instructions?"
"Stop kneeling. The feudal dynasty collapsed how many years ago and you're still playing this? All of you, stand up."
"Oh, okay."
"Afa, Ayou, Azhong, you all used to run the streets, but these past years you've been sitting in the shop. Your fighting skills must have gotten rusty. Practice well at home these days. I'll find someone to teach you."
Wang Defa patted his chest, "Boss Qin, don't worry. Even if our fists and feet are rusty, dealing with ordinary men one against two isn't a problem."
"Who said I want you to fight people? In a few days, come with me outside the safe zone to hunt gods. Prepare yourselves."
"Hunt?", Wang Defa almost choked on his own saliva, his face twisting like a bitter melon, "No, Boss Qin, did you forget? We're ordinary people. We can't kill gods."
"That's why I said you're coming with me."
"Ah! Okay, got it."
Qin Siyang then looked at She Haoqiang, "Afa and the others were picked up by my car. You can take the car back to the 14121 area."
She Haoqiang thought for a moment and said, "If Boss Qin has a car, that would be best. I can stay in the trunk. That way it won't attract attention."
A hint of brightness flashed in Qin Siyang's eyes, "As expected of a professional."
Then he glanced at his phone. Li Pengfei was about to finish school, so he said, "I have other matters. I'll leave first. You all talk. Old Snake, before you leave, just tell your sister's address to the staff at the door."
"Boss Qin, you can call me Little Snake."
"Little Snake sounds a bit effeminate. I'll stick with Old Snake. I'll wait for your good news."
"I will definitely satisfy Boss Qin! Goodbye, Boss Qin!"
After Qin Siyang left, She Haoqiang and Wang Defa and his two brothers started chatting again.
She Haoqiang let out a long breath and wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Afa, if it weren't for you this time, I really would've died here. I truly don't know how to thank you!"
Wang Defa pinched his thick waist, his face relaxed, "No need to thank me. All these years, you helped me, I helped you. We stopped keeping score a long time ago. In my heart, I treat you like family, same as Azhong and Ayou. Do this job well, come back, and we'll become sequence users together and make a fortune."
"Alright!"
"Azhong, why does your face look a bit ugly?"
"Ah! Don't mention it," The youngest, Wang Dezhong, said, "I thought we were helping Boss Qin kill people. I didn't expect we'd be killing gods. Those gods all look strange and twisted, like mutated creatures. Just looking at them makes my heart tremble."
Wang Deyou looked a bit dissatisfied, "Boss Qin treats us this well, enough to buy ten of our lives, and you're still resisting?"
"Second Brother, I'm not resisting. I'm scared from the bottom of my heart. I'm not afraid of killing people, but those gods, aren't you afraid?"
Wang Deyou's thick brows sank, "You're not afraid of killing people, but you're afraid of killing gods?"
"Enough, stop arguing," Wang Defa took charge, "Whether we're afraid or not, Boss Qin has spoken. Then we kill."
