Meanwhile, deep within the government jail.
In a dim, damp cell, Ma Tietou slowly came to, his head throbbing.
His mind was still foggy. His last memory was of being knocked out by a single punch from the masked woman in black, right after he'd confessed everything. 'That punch... was damn vicious.'
He shook his groggy head and looked around. Stone walls, straw, a cage... 'How long has it been since I was last here?'
He glanced around again. The adjacent cells were filled with his men, beaten half to death and sprawled in every direction.
'Looks like... a total wipeout.'
The moment the guard on duty saw Ma Tietou was awake, he immediately ran out of the prison to report it.
Meanwhile, in the cell next to Ma Tietou's, Jiang Stone, who was disguised as one of the "beggar thugs," felt his eyelids twitch slightly. He immediately went still again, continuing to feign unconsciousness.
