Chapter 527 City-Wide Manhunt
527
The entire nightclub was devastated.
All the equipment on the ceiling was burned out. The lights, suspension, and soundproofing equipment were all useless. On the floor, more than one-third of the booths had been burned. The ground was filled with black sewage, and the air was vague. Reeks of alcohol.
In order to put out the fire as quickly as possible, the prince's men even drank wine.
Beer bottles were strewn all over the floor, some smashed, some not.
Because the stage was closest to Ka8, it had been burned to ashes.
The thick smoke in the bar has long since dissipated, and now only a little bit of the unpleasant smell of smoke from burnt things is still rising in some places.
Some of the guests at the door were sent to the hospital, while others went home.
Many people have lingering fears about this sudden fire, and they also wonder why it suddenly caught fire. What's more, what's amazing about this fire is that there was thick smoke first and then fire.
The prince asked people to compensate these guests for their losses, and compensate them in full. No matter how much wine you bought today, no matter how much you drank before or how much you have left now, you will be compensated in full.
This somewhat restored the goodwill of some customers, but even so, it could not prevent the collapse of the gold-selling den in Happy Forest.
This is not a collapse in the physical sense, but a collapse in people's hearts.
This place used to be the safest and most fun place, but now, with accidents happening here for two days in a row, many people no longer regard this place as their first choice for fun.
Perhaps many years later, with the prince's proper operation, this place can be restored to its previous state, but that will be many years later. At least in the recent period, this nightclub will become depressed and may even not be able to continue operating.
The internal hardware of the nightclub alone will take at least several months to restore.
The prince and several of his men stood among the ruins, their expressions extremely ugly.
"Your Majesty, there's a call from the city bureau, asking you how to deal with this matter?" A subordinate said to the prince's ear.
"Jianghu affairs should be handled according to Jianghu's rules and the city bureau should not interfere. I thank them for their kindness." The prince said coldly.
"Your Majesty, do you know who did it?" a confidant asked.
"I don't know, but I probably know who did it." The prince said with a sneer, "No one in Xiahai City dares to touch my place one after another. What happened in Jiangyuan City was exposed before, Zhang Beishan I was sent to the police station, and the managers I worked with before all severed ties with me at the same time. I think it was people in Jiangyuan City who knew about our collusion with those managers. In the Yangtze River Basin , only Xu Taiping from Jiangyuan City has the ability to make such a big noise, and I just learned that Zhou Xiaoyu disappeared in Jiangyuan City a few days ago."
"You mean, Xu Taiping asked Zhou Xiaoyu to do what happened in the past two days?" the subordinate asked cautiously.
"Apart from him, I can't think of anyone else who has the ability and motivation to deal with me. Now I am the flag bearer of the blue flag. Anyone who wants to deal with me must consider my status in this world. With his status, only Xu Taiping can be so unscrupulous. After all, the original blue flag holder is from their Taiya Group," the prince said.
"Then I will gather my brothers to go to Jiangyuan City now and make that Xu Taiping!" the prince's men said through gritted teeth.
"Did him? If it was really that easy to do him, he would have died a long time ago. This man is not only extremely resourceful, but also powerful in combat. The most terrifying thing is that this man is also very lucky. Such a character is very difficult to kill. Yes, but since he did this, we can't just pretend that nothing happened. Anyway, sooner or later we have to start a war. Let Zhou Xiaoyu do the surgery. Send me an order for you to conduct control at all external channels. Once Zhou Xiaoyu is found, arrest him immediately. Whoever can catch Zhou Xiaoyu alive will be rewarded with one million in cash! Whoever catches Zhou Xiaoyu dead will be rewarded with half a million." The prince said coldly.
"I understand, Your Majesty!!"
The prince's men nodded, bowed and retreated.
Not long after, a fatwa to kill Zhou Xiaoyu was distributed from the prince.
The entire Jianghu power in Xiahai City became active at this moment, and people went to the hotel lobby to find out Zhou Xiaoyu's whereabouts.
"Call Xu Taiping." The prince said to his subordinates.
"Yes!" The subordinate nodded, found Xu Taiping's phone number, called it, and handed the phone to the prince.
At this time, Xu Taiping was sitting in a Chevrolet car.
He was surrounded by a group of unidentified men.
Xu Taiping's cell phone rang, and everyone pressed their guns against Xu Taiping's body.
Xu Taiping carefully took out his phone from his pocket.
"Aries, trace the call. You, answer the phone. Hands-free." The man who looked like the boss said to Xu Taiping and the person next to Xu Taiping.
The person next to Xu Taiping took out a data cable and plugged it into Xu Taiping's mobile phone.
"What the hell is this?" Xu Taiping asked in surprise.
"Don't worry, you, answer the phone, hands-free." The person named Aries said.
Xu Taiping shrugged helplessly, then glanced at the number displayed on the phone and found that it was an unknown number, so Xu Taiping picked up the phone.
"Hello, hello." Xu Taiping said.
"Xu Taiping, I have to say, your methods are really good!" The prince's sinister voice came from the other end of the phone.
"It turns out it's the prince!" Xu Taiping showed a smile and said, "Why did the prince call me when he had time?"
"Of course I have time. My Happy Forest has been burned down. If I don't have time to call you again, I guess my house will be burned down next time, right?" The prince said in a calm voice on the other end of the phone.
"Your Happy Forest burned down?" Xu Taiping asked in shock, "What's going on? Why are you so careless? Has it been turned on for too long and the wires have aged?"
"Don't pretend to be crazy, Xu Taiping." The prince said coldly, "I have always respected Boss Xia Jiangxia, and as his successor, I have always hoped to become friends with you, but I never expected that you You actually took the initiative to start a war with me, Xu Taiping, do you really think this world is still the same world it was when Xia Jiang was here?"
Xu Taiping glanced at the people around him, and then said jokingly, "I really don't know what you are talking about."
"You actually want to fight, then fight. My prince, I will never be afraid of anyone. Xu Taiping, it won't be long before I catch Zhou Xiaoyu. He will become the first victim of the war between you and me. Wait. Come on." The prince said.
"Whatever you want, I don't know what you are talking about anyway." Xu Taiping smiled.
"Huh!" The prince snorted coldly and hung up the phone.
"Is there a struggle between the rivers and lakes?" The man who looked like the boss looked at Xu Taiping jokingly.
"I don't know either. Maybe this person is an idiot. By the way, handsome guy, I don't know what you call him yet?" Xu Taiping looked at the other person and said.
"Lion." The man who looked like the boss said, "My name is Lion."
"Lion?" Xu Taiping nodded and said, "So it's the code name you all use."
"Aries, hand over the recording just now to the Ministry of Public Security. Although this kind of thing has little to do with us, we have encountered it after all." The lion said to Aries.
"I know, boss!" Aries nodded.
Xu Taiping rolled his eyes and said, "Brother Lion, only the prince was talking from the beginning to the end, but I didn't do anything."
"I have no interest in your Jianghu struggle." The lion looked at Xu Taiping and said, "Tell me, what do you know about Chen Shengshen?"
"Chen Shengshen? Is it Dr. Chen?" Xu Taiping asked.
"That's right." The lion nodded.
"The Dr. Chen you just said died, was it Dr. Chen Shengshen? How is this possible? Such a good and hard-working doctor!" Xu Taiping said excitedly.
"Don't say these useless things, tell me, why did you go to the laboratory building to find Chen Shengshen at that time?" Lion asked.
"Brother, this is really a coincidence!" Xu Taiping pointed to his mobile phone and said, "You can check the call records. I was at home before, and then someone under me called me and said that gunshots were heard in the laboratory building. , it happened that a friend of mine was assassinated by the enemy and was hospitalized with a gunshot wound. I thought that someone might be coming to deal with my friend, so I quickly went to the hospital, and then my subordinates said that the gunfire came from the laboratory building, and Dr. Chen’s laboratory over there in the laboratory building was lit, so when I got there, really, I didn’t know it was Dr. Chen’s laboratory before!”
"Check his cell phone call records." The lion said.
Aries nodded, then took a computer and started typing quickly.
Not long after, Aries' computer rang with a recording of his previous call to Xu Taiping.
"Boss, there was gunfire just now in the First Hospital."
Xu Taiping is not surprised at all that this call recording was found. Today's technology is enough to allow everything you say on the phone to be automatically recorded. As long as you have sufficient permissions, you can check it. Go to other people's call records. This call record is really a complete record of the call. Not only who you called and how long you called, but also what you said can be recorded.
Of course, Xu Taiping's mobile phone comes with a destruction program. Many times the confidential things Xu Taiping tells people will be destroyed through a program after they are told. Even the communication operators will never be able to find anything.
"It's true." After listening to the recording, the lion looked at Xu Taiping and said, "It seems that we wrongly blamed you."
"Yes!" Xu Taiping nodded quickly.
"Stop!" said the lion.
With a squeak, the car stopped.
Xu Taiping was pushed out of the car.
"You will forget everything that happened tonight." The lion walked up to Xu Taiping, grabbed Xu Taiping's collar, took out a needle, and wanted to stab Xu Taiping's neck.
Of course, Xu Taiping couldn't be stabbed with a needle casually. Xu Taiping didn't resist before because he didn't encounter anything that could threaten him. Now the lion is going to give him a needle. Although it looks like a drug that can cause temporary amnesia, but God knows what is in there. It is absolutely impossible for Xu Taiping to be stabbed with such a needle. Therefore, when the lion took the needle and stabbed Xu Taiping in the neck, Xu Taiping moved!
