The crowd on the street flowed without any disturbance. In the blink of an eye, the man was escorted to the carriage by the iron mask man and Flame Rhinoceros. He was thrown at Xia Pingan's feet like a dead dog without any dignity.
Once the door was closed, the black carriage began to move again.
The man lying on the ground looked at the other three people in the carriage in horror. Until now, he still didn't understand how he fell the moment he arrived in Shang Jing City. It was as if he had walked right into a trap.
Then, he heard the hook-nosed guy say to his target in a flattering manner, "Why don't I turn him into a pig too? I'll train him, and I guarantee that he'll obediently tell me everything about his ancestors in a few days …"
The man lying on the ground felt a chill run down his spine!
Right, why 'also'?
Xia Pingan smiled and looked down at the man lying at his feet. "Do you know who I am?"
"I know!" The man said in a low voice.
"I also know who you are, and I know who sent you here. I also know how much gold coins the Huang family gave you. You are also a Six-Sun Realm summoner, and you have never failed before. I feel that the little bit of gold coins the Huang family gave you is not enough to buy your life. What do you think?"
"Where did you get all this information from?" The man didn't pretend anymore. His face turned cold and he revealed the true colors of an assassin. Even if he lost so miserably this time, he still wanted to know how he lost.
"Other than the Huang Family, who else do you think would know this information?" Xia Pingan said half-truthfully.
"F * ck …" The man cursed. It was really the Huang Family that made a mistake. No wonder he was caught as soon as he got off the boat.
"Now, you have two choices. One is to cooperate with me obediently and tell me everything you know. You can testify against the Huang Family as a witness. This choice won't let you escape punishment, but it will let you live. The second choice is to not cooperate and maintain your professional integrity. The result is death. The carriage will soon arrive at the East Port Supervision Office. Before the carriage stops, tell me your choice. Either the Huang Family dies or you die. Choose one!" Xia Pingan didn't get angry from beginning to end. Instead, he spoke calmly to the man at his feet.
It was because of this that the assassin was exceptionally terrified. His back was soaked in cold sweat because he knew that Xia Pingan wasn't joking with him.
"You promise that you won't lie to me and that I can survive if I cooperate with you?" Because of the tension, the assassin's voice became hoarse.
"Because I want your confession and I want to hand you over to the Adjudicator Army to testify against the Huang Family. You are useful to me if you live. Prisoners like you are very scarce in Shang Jing City. Many places need you. After you testify against the Huang Family, the Adjudicator Army won't kill you. You will probably only have to suffer for a few decades. Of course, how long you have to suffer depends on your own ability, but at least you have a chance to live! If you want to die, I will fulfill your wish now. Later, I will drag a corpse out of the carriage. I will think of another way to deal with the Huang Family … "
The assassin didn't think for long before he said, "I choose to cooperate!"
Xia Pingan laughed, "Smart!"
Seeing that Xia Pingan didn't turn the assassin into a pig, Flaming Rhinoceros was slightly disappointed. However, he still used the secret method of transmitting his voice to Xia Pingan and volunteered, "If you want the lives of those people from the Huang Family, I can kill them all!"
"Hehe, since I have the Adjudicator Army as my backer and I have evidence that can overthrow the Huang Family, why should I take the risk to do this kind of thing? Do you think that Shang Jing City can really let a Six-Sun Realm summoner do whatever he wants? Any action is risky. If something happens to the Huang Family now, the first suspect will be me. Why should I seek trouble for myself? Therefore, unless I have no other choice, this is the worst choice for me. I just need to deal with it impartially … "Xia Pingan glanced at Flaming Rhinoceros and shook his head.
If he didn't know how to make use of the country's machinery and took the risk himself, wouldn't that be stupid? If the Huang Family had any other choice, they would never have taken the path of an assassin.
"Well, this … Can you give me a few more hours today …" Flaming Rhinoceros asked with a flattering face.
Xia Pingan curled his lips and stretched out his hand to point at Flaming Rhinoceros's body. A light flew into Flaming Rhinoceros's body, "Seeing that your performance today is good, then until sunset …"
Flaming Rhinoceros let out a long sigh, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face, "Okay, thank you, thank you …"
Xia Pingan meant that he still had to turn back into a pig after sunset.
However, Flaming Rhinoceros was already very satisfied to be a human for half a day. At least, it was a good start.
Even if he was now a human and his strength had been restored, Flaming Rhinoceros didn't dare to run away because the Shape Sealing Technique was still in his body. Xia Pingan could turn him into a pig at any time. In his current state, it was unconditional for him to become a pig, but there were conditions for him to become a human. He needed Xia Pingan to give him the "unlocking time". Once this "unlocking time" was up, he would become a pig again.
If you don't become a pig, you don't know the value of a human body!
…
It didn't take long for the carriage to stop in front of the Donggang Supervision Office. Xia Pingan got off the carriage, and Flaming Rhinoceros lifted the assassin with one hand. They entered the Supervision Office, and the assassin was immediately placed in the interrogation room.
…
"… The situation is like this. The Huang Family hired me to come to Shang Jing City for two targets. One is Xia Pingan, and the other is the remaining members of the Fire Dragon Gang. The Huang Family wants to eliminate them all …"
In the interrogation room, the assassin sat on a special chair, and Long Chao and Hua Ziqin were in charge of the interrogation.
The assassin was very cooperative. When the two asked questions, he answered in full detail.
"Why did the Huang Family hire you to eliminate the Fire Dragon Gang?" Long Chao asked in a deep voice.
"This question has nothing to do with me. I'm just an assassin. I'm paid to eliminate disasters. I only need to confirm the identity and price of the target. I don't care about the rest …"
"Then what's the specific arrangement?"
"According to the plan, the Huang Family will first pretend to arrange for the people of the Fire Dragon Gang to cooperate with me to assassinate Xia Pingan. After they succeed, I will eliminate the people of the Fire Dragon Gang, and then push the responsibility of the assassination to the few people of the Fire Dragon Gang. All the problems will be solved …"
…
There were also a few people in the room next to the interrogation room of the assassin.
Xia Pingan stood in front of a huge single-view glass and looked at the interrogation situation in the interrogation room. The sound in the interrogation room was transmitted to this room through the copper pipe, and everything was clear.
In this room, there were three summoners in shackles. One of them was missing a leg and was wearing a prosthetic leg.
These three summoners were the remaining three summoners of the Fire Dragon Gang who attacked Xia Pingan on the long street that day. They were the backbone of the Fire Dragon Gang. In the battle that day, the leader of the Fire Dragon Gang was killed by Xia Pingan. The three of them barely escaped at the critical moment and had been hiding in Shang Jing City these days.
Xia Pingan brought the iron-masked man yesterday and easily caught these three who had escaped the net.
These three people were now wanted by the Judgment Army because they had arranged a formation and summoned battle dolls to attack the inspector in Shang Jing City. They were already wanted criminals.
These three people had always been very tough. Since Xia Pingan brought them into this room, they had been glaring at Xia Pingan with cold smiles on their faces …
However, after the interrogation in the interrogation room next door, the cold smiles on the faces of the three core members of the Fire Dragon Gang disappeared, and their expressions changed drastically.
At first, the three of them thought that Xia Pingan was putting on an act for them. However, when the assassin revealed the details of the Huang Family's plan, their psychological defenses finally collapsed. This was because only they and the Huang Family knew about the plan. The Huang Family had discussed it with them. The Huang Family would find an expert to deal with Xia Pingan with them, and they would cooperate …
Even if Xia Pingan wanted to put on an act, it was impossible for him to know these details.
They finally knew that in the Huang Family's plan, they had to die too, and they had to take the blame for the assassination of Xia Pingan.
"Huang Family, f * ck your ancestors …" The bearded summoner with the prosthetic leg roared angrily. He wanted to struggle to stand up, but he was fixed to the chair. He could only pant with red eyes. The other summoner's face was pale, and the last one was smiling bitterly.
They were working for the Huang Family, but the Huang Family wanted their lives. This was really ironic. They were betrayed, but they were still counting money for them.
Xia Pingan turned his head, looked at the three people, and said calmly, "I don't have any enmity with you. That day, during the bloody battle on the street, I was enforcing the law, and you were working for the Huang Family. Ask yourselves, if I kill you, do you feel wronged? Regardless of whether you give me an explanation or not, I will hand you and the assassin over to the Judgment Army today!"
"Ask whatever you want. That day, we ambushed you on the street under the Huang Family's instructions. In addition to that day's incident, the Huang Family has done a lot of dirty and shameful things in Shang Jing City over the years. We all know about it. This time, we can expose them all …" The bearded summoner with the prosthetic leg panted heavily, looking as if he was ready to risk everything.
Xia Pingan gestured to Fan Gang and Situ Hua, who had been silent at the side, to start the interrogation. Not only did they have to dig out the Fire Dragon Gang's interception, but they also had to dig out all the dirty things that the Huang Family had done in the past.
The interrogation in the two interrogation rooms was going on at the same time.
Xia Pingan was listening in the interrogation room where the Fire Dragon Gang was being interrogated.
With the confession of the three people from the Fire Dragon Gang, the Huang Family's old affairs were dug out one by one, which was really shocking.
It wasn't the first time that Huang Wei had committed a crime. It was just that the Huang Family had dealt with all the cases of Huang Wei abusing women in the past. If they couldn't deal with it, the Fire Dragon Gang would take care of it.
Huang Wei had done this kind of thing too many times. Slowly, the ordinary women that he bought with money could no longer satisfy his appetite. Later on, in order to pursue excitement, he began to turn his attention to ordinary women in the city. He began to commit crimes in the East Harbor District, and he became more and more perverted. It wasn't until the summoner who followed Huang Wei was caught by the East Harbor District Inspection Department that Huang Wei became obedient for a few days.
The Huang Family's other cases of corruption were too many to count. The Fire Dragon Gang had done a lot of things for the Huang Family. The most shocking thing was that the Fire Dragon Gang had robbed and killed the Patrol Inspector of the six provinces who came to Shang Jing City to complain. Because the Patrol Inspector had some evidence of Huang Zheng's illegal activities in Anxi Province, he couldn't stand Huang Zheng's actions in Anxi Province. Therefore, he was robbed and killed by the Fire Dragon Gang on his way back to Shang Jing City.
Even Fan Gang and Situ Hua, who were in charge of the interrogation records, had a slight change in expression when they heard this. The Huang Family actually dared to rob and kill the Shang Dynasty's Patrol Inspector of the six provinces. Just this crime alone, once it was verified, the Huang Family would be consigned to eternal damnation.
Xia Pingan finally understood why the Huang Family wanted to silence the Fire Dragon Gang.
These few people from the Fire Dragon Gang knew too much. Perhaps the Huang Family had long wanted to silence the Fire Dragon Gang, but after Ren Baqian dealt a heavy blow to the Fire Dragon Gang, he created such an opportunity for the Huang Family.
After the interrogation, the three people from the Fire Dragon Gang had read their statements and signed their signatures. Xia Pingan personally kept the statements and ordered the three people from the Fire Dragon Gang to be escorted back to their cells. At the same time, he ordered someone to prepare a carriage. He was going to personally escort them to the Ping Mountain Barracks.
"Oh right, I also remembered something …" When he was about to walk out of the interrogation room, one of the people from the Fire Dragon Gang suddenly stopped and turned his head. "The men from the Huang Family all liked to go to Red Leaf Villa. Every time they went there, their whereabouts were rather low-key and mysterious. I once escorted Huang Zhen to the Fire Dragon Villa. Huang Zhen carried a box in his carriage. That box wasn't big. On the way, there was a noise coming from the box. It seemed like a child was crying for help.
