Chapter 1705: Twists and Turns
Qin Yuan took a deep breath, knowing that it was now a matter of life and death. He must find a way to resolve this crisis. So, he smiled slightly and said calmly: "Zhang Shuai, since you want to know Meng Tianyu's plan so much, why not ask him directly? I believe that as long as you have a good talk, you will be able to find a peaceful solution. "
Zhang Shuai seemed a little surprised when he heard this. He frowned, looked at Qin Yuan and said, "Oh? What do you mean by that?"
Qin Yuan smiled and continued: "Zhang Shuai, you are a smart man and you should understand what I mean. The grudge between Meng Tianyu and your Black Panther Gang is actually not that deep. As long as you can sit down and talk, I believe we can find a solution acceptable to both parties. Moreover, I can also help you make an appointment with Meng Tianyu so that you can have a direct conversation."
When Zhang Shuai heard this, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes. He was obviously weighing whether Qin Yuan's proposal was feasible. However, at this moment, Liu Defa spoke again.
"Zhang Shuai, don't believe him! He is lying to you! He and Meng Tianyu are in the same group! They just want to take the opportunity to annex our Black Panther Gang!" Liu Defa shouted hysterically, seeming to have completely lost his mind.
When Zhang Shuai heard this, his eyes became fierce again. He looked at Qin Yuan and said in a cold tone: "Little brother, I originally wanted to give you a chance, but since Liu Defa said so, I have to take some measures. Come on, bring them two Take me down here and treat me well!"
When Qin Yuan heard this, his heart sank.
After a few minutes.
The night was as dark as ink, deep and oppressive. At the end of the alley, there was a dark room in a secret room, and the atmosphere was so solemn that it seemed like water could drop into ice. Zhang Shuai sat on the large sofa, his eyes like daggers, looking directly at the trembling Liu Defa in front of him. Qin Yuan was tied with his backhand to a chair nearby, with a faint sneer on his face, as if he was waiting for a good show to unfold.
"Liu Defa," Zhang Shuai's voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, "You know too much and you speak too much. Now, I'll give you a chance to choose." He Leaning forward slightly, his eyes flashed with unquestionable determination, "Either you deal with Qin Yuan with your own hands to ensure that your secret will not be leaked; or, I will bury you and your secret together forever. Here."
Liu Defa trembled all over, and the sweat on his forehead fell like drizzle, dripping on the cold ground, making a small but clear sound. He looked at Qin Yuan, his eyes full of complex emotions - fear, hesitation, and a hint of unnoticeable guilt.
"I..." Liu Defa's throat seemed to be blocked by something, and his voice was so hoarse that he could hardly hear it, "I... I can't..."
"Can't?" Zhang Shuai sneered, stood up, walked slowly to Liu Defa, and put a gun to his chin, "In this world, there is nothing you can't do, only things you don't want to do. You owe me Someone has to pay the debt.”
When Qin Yuan saw this, an imperceptible light flashed in his eyes. He knew that this was the best time for him to fight back. When Zhang Shuai and Liu Defa focused their attention on each other, he quietly broke away from the restraints, rushed forward with lightning speed, strangled Zhang Shuai's neck, and at the same time pressed the sharp fragments in his hands against on Zhang Shuai's throat.
"Don't move!" Qin Yuan's voice was cold and firm, as if coming from the depths of hell, "Otherwise, I guarantee that your boss will go to see the King of Hell before anyone else."
The atmosphere in the secret room solidified instantly, and everyone was stunned. A flash of surprise flashed in Zhang Shuai's eyes, and then he regained his composure. He smiled and said, "Qin Yuan, do you think this can change anything? You are wrong. I, the Black Panther Gang, are never afraid of death."
"Of course I know you are not afraid of death," Qin Yuan responded coldly, "But are you afraid of losing everything? Including your status, your power, and your life?"
Zhang Shuai's expression changed slightly, and he realized that Qin Yuan was not bluffing, but might actually do something extreme. He looked at Liu Defa and signaled him to stay calm while trying to negotiate with Qin Yuan.
"Qin Yuan, let me go and we can talk. Whatever you want, just say it. As long as I can give it, I will give it." Although Zhang Shuai's voice was still tough, it was obviously a bit compromised.
Qin Yuan smiled slightly, knowing that he had taken the initiative. "What I want is very simple, that is for you and your Black Panther Gang to stop disturbing Meng Tianyu and me from now on. Also, let Liu Defa go, he is just an innocent pawn and should not be involved in this dispute. "
Zhang Shuai frowned when he heard this. He knew very well that once he agreed to this condition, it would mean that his prestige in the Black Panther Gang would be greatly reduced, and he might even lose control of the gang. But he knew better that if he didn't compromise at this moment, he might not have much life left.
"Okay," Zhang Shuai took a deep breath, as if he had made a major decision, "I promise you, but you must also promise that today's matter will end here, and we will not make mistakes in the future."
Qin Yuan nodded and slowly released the hand that was holding Zhang Shuai's neck, but the fragment in his hand still did not leave Zhang Shuai's throat. "I will believe you, but I also hope you will do what you say. Now, let your people stand back and Liu Defa and I get out of here."
Zhang Shuai signaled his men to move away, and at the same time warned them with his eyes not to act rashly. Qin Yuan pulled Liu Defa and retreated step by step towards the door until he walked out of the secret room and disappeared into the night.
In the secret room, Zhang Shuai looked at the two people leaving, with a flash of complicated emotions in his eyes. He knew that he had suffered a big loss this time, but what confused him even more was what kind of relationship between Qin Yuan and Meng Tianyu could make Liu Defa so hesitant and even willing to betray him?
On the other side, Qin Yuan and Liu Defa were running through the night. Only when they were sure they were far away from the Black Panther Gang's sphere of influence did they dare to stop and look at each other with a smile.
"Thank you, Qin Yuan." Liu Defa's voice was trembling, "If it weren't for you, I would probably be..."
"Stop talking," Qin Yuan interrupted him, "We are all fooled by fate, but as long as we are alive, we have the opportunity to change everything. Remember, be careful when doing things in the future, and don't be taken advantage of again. "
The night was as dark as ink and the moonlight was thin. Qin Yuan and Liu Defa shuttled through the dark corners of the city. Every step they took seemed cautious, as if they would step into an endless abyss if they were not careful. Their destination is the most influential media building in the city, which will be the stage for them to reveal the truth and fight against the conspiracy of Zhang Shuai of the Black Panther Gang.
"Qin Yuan, is it really safe for us to do this?" Liu Defa's voice trembled slightly, with a hint of uncertainty. Since escaping from Zhang Shuai's secret room that night, his mood has undergone earth-shaking changes. His fear of Zhang Shuai and his gratitude to Qin Yuan are intertwined, making him conflicted and struggling.
"There is no absolute safety, but we must do this." Qin Yuan's eyes were firm and there was unquestionable determination in his tone, "Zhang Shuai is trying to kill Meng Tianyu and annex the Meng Group. This is not only related to Meng Tianyu's life and death, but also to the We cannot sit idly by and watch the fate of countless innocent people.”
Liu Defa was silent for a moment and finally nodded. He knew that Qin Yuan was right. Once something started, there was no turning back. They must expose Zhang Shuai's conspiracy, even if they pay a heavy price for it.
The two came to the media building. The lights of the building stood out in the night, like a bright light, guiding them forward. Qin Yuan took a deep breath and patted Liu Defa on the shoulder: "Are you ready? What we are about to face is a war without smoke."
Liu Defa nodded. Although he was still uneasy in his heart, there was more determination in his eyes. The two walked into the building and went straight to the editorial office.
The lights in the newsroom are brightly lit, and editors are busy typing on the keyboard, writing tomorrow's news. The arrival of Qin Yuan and Liu Defa caused a small commotion. But soon, a senior editor, Sister Li, came over. There was a hint of curiosity and vigilance in her eyes: "You two, what can I do for you?"
Qin Yuan didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point: "Sister Li, we have important clues about Zhang Shuai of the Black Panther Gang trying to kill Meng Tianyu and annex the Meng Group. I hope your media can expose this matter and let the truth be known to the world."
Sister Li frowned slightly when she heard this, obviously shocked by the sudden information. But soon, she regained her professionalism and motioned for the two of them to follow her into a conference room.
In the conference room, the lighting was soft, but the atmosphere was extremely tense. Qin Yuan and Liu Defa sat opposite each other, while Sister Li sat opposite them, holding a pen tightly in her hand, ready to record every detail.
"Please speak, we are listening." Sister Li's voice was calm and powerful, as if telling the two of them that this is a trustworthy place.
Qin Yuan took a deep breath and began to tell the whole story of the incident. From his acquaintance with Meng Tianyu, to Zhang Shuai's jealousy and conspiracy against Meng Tianyu, to how they were imprisoned by Zhang Shuai and how they escaped, they finally decided to reveal the truth. Every detail was told vividly by him, as if a picture was unfolding before his eyes.
Sister Li was fascinated by what she heard, and the pen in her hand quickly recorded on the paper. Liu Defa, on the other hand, was adding details. Although his voice was still trembling, every word was full of power.
"We have evidence in our hands," Qin Yuan said after telling the whole story, he took out a USB flash drive from his pocket, "We found this in Zhang Shuai's secret room. It recorded the conversation between him and his men who plotted to kill Meng Tianyu. , and their detailed plan to annex the Meng Group.”
Sister Li took the USB flash drive with a flash of light in her eyes. She knew that the importance of this evidence was self-evident. If true, this would be big news that would shock the entire city.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Sister Li said with a hint of hesitation in her tone, "Once exposed, you will face endless revenge from Zhang Shuai."
Qin Yuan and Liu Defa looked at each other and smiled, with firm light shining in their eyes. "We are ready," Qin Yuan said. "For the truth and for justice, we are willing to bear all the consequences."
Sister Li looked at them with a hint of admiration in her eyes. She knew there weren't many people as brave as them. She nodded: "Okay, I will arrange the release as soon as possible. But you must also be careful, Zhang Shuai will not give up."
Qin Yuan and Liu Defa left the media building, feeling both relaxed and heavy in their hearts. They knew that they were about to set off a storm, and at the center of this storm was Zhang Shuai and the Black Panther Gang. But they also understand that as long as the truth is revealed to the world, no matter what difficulties and dangers they face, it will be worth it.
The next day, when the first ray of sunshine shone on the city, a large number of reporters and citizens gathered at the entrance of the media building. They were talking a lot, their eyes full of expectation and curiosity. Because today, the media will expose a big news that shocked the whole city - Zhang Shuai of the Black Panther Gang attempted to kill Meng Tianyu and annex the Meng Group.
At the press conference, Sister Li stood on the podium, holding the piece of evidence tightly in her hand. Her voice was firm and powerful, and she told the whole story of the incident. The reporters in the audience were dumbfounded and recorded this astonishing information one after another.
The news quickly spread throughout the city and even attracted nationwide attention. People were shocked and angry at the evil deeds of Zhang Shuai and the Black Panther Gang, and demanded that the government severely punish the murderers and bring justice to society.
As Qin Yuan expected, Zhang Shuai fell into an unprecedented crisis. His plan was completely disrupted. Not only was he unable to annex the Meng Group, he became the target of public criticism. He roared angrily, vowing to find Qin Yuan and Liu Defa and make them pay a heavy price.
The sun sets low, and the sky is covered with gorgeous sunset glow, as if it is nature's most proud painting. Instructor Qin Yuan was sitting on the returning military vehicle, but his heart was as complicated as the mountain road.
However, fate always seems to like to surprise or scare people when least expected. When the military vehicle drove into a remote mountain road, a group of uninvited guests suddenly appeared in front of them. They were dressed in casual clothes, but all of them looked fierce. The leader was a burly middle-aged man with sinister eyes - Zhang Shuai.
"Stop." Qin Yuan's voice was calm and decisive. He had a premonition that unnecessary trouble was coming.
The driver Xiao Li stopped in response, and the military vehicle stopped steadily in front of a group of people. Qin Yuan opened the door and slowly stepped out of the car. His eyes were like burning fire as he scanned the group of uninvited "guests" in front of him.
"Zhang Shuai, what do you mean?" Qin Yuan's voice was low and powerful, trying to suppress the tension in the air.
A sneer curled up at the corner of Zhang Shuai's lips, with a gleam of revenge in his eyes: "Qin Yuan, what you owe my family, it's finally time to repay it today."
Qin Yuan frowned, of course he knew what Zhang Shuai was referring to.
"Zhang Shuai, the past has passed. We can't live in hatred all the time." Qin Yuan tried to persuade Zhang Shuai with reason, but he knew in his heart that facing a person blinded by hatred, any words would be pale.
