Just as Zuo Yi had guessed, there was a real culprit behind the kidnapping of Gu Kai and his wife.
Although Paul the Iron Fist and his underlings died in the hands of Zuo Yi, there were still people in Hellfire who knew the truth.
This gang member was Paul the Iron Fist's agent in St. George City. He ran a hotel and a trading firm. His main job was to launder money and collect intelligence for Paul the Iron Fist.
His identity was not a secret, so Cainphas asked the higher-ups of Hellfire to investigate the truth. This person was immediately controlled.
If Paul the Iron Fist was still alive, then he might not reveal the truth. But now, Paul the Iron Fist and his underlings were all sent to the Atlantic Ocean. He had no reason to continue being loyal.
The truth was that someone found him through a middleman. Then he asked Rathor, who was Paul the Iron Fist's younger brother, to deal with Gu Kai and his wife.
Rathor ate, drank, gambled, and drank. His usual expenses were very high. He had a manic personality and low IQ. The other party paid a high price, so he ignored the agreement between Hellfire and Chinatown and sent his underlings to kidnap Gu Kai and his wife.
In fact, according to the employer's request, if it wasn't for Zuo Yi rushing over to save them, even if Zhang Yaoming paid the ransom, he would only get two corpses.
Cainphas was very reliable. After understanding the situation, he immediately used the power of the Golden Mask to dig out the middleman. Then, he quickly found the employer.
The employer was also from Da Xia. His name was Gu Hongsheng.
Gu Hongsheng!
Zuo Yi really didn't expect this guy to continue causing trouble. He even extended his evil hands to Gu Yunxi's parents!
As the culprit who forced Gu Yunxi to leave her home and separated her family, Gu Hongsheng was sent to Africa by the Gu family to appease Zuo Yi's anger.
However, this guy was now in Eland, the second largest city in Barbaro.
Zuo Yi didn't want to know how Gu Hongsheng ran from Africa to Barbaro. At that time, he was merciful to Gu Hongsheng and didn't pursue him. Otherwise, the explanation given by the Gu family would be far from enough.
In the end, what he got in return was Gu Hongsheng's crazy revenge!
"I don't want to see this person again …"
Zuo Yi said to Cainphas over the phone, "I don't want to hear anything about him either."
Cainphas replied, "I understand."
When he called Zuo Yi, Gu Hongsheng was already under the control of the golden-masked man. He had to listen to Zuo Yi's opinion on how to deal with him.
And Zuo Yi's meaning couldn't be clearer.
"I promise you, he will never appear again!"
Wasn't it just vanishing from the face of the earth? It was a simple matter. Although Cainphas was a decent person, he was born in the slums of Saint George. He was definitely not a soft-hearted person.
"Thank you."
Zuo Yi said, "If you have the chance to come to Da Xia in the future, remember to look for me."
Cainphas said respectfully, "It's my honor."
After ending the conversation with the "Eagle of the Plateau", Zuo Yi let out a long sigh.
Why were there always people seeking their own deaths? Wasn't it good to be alive?
He shook his head and called Gu Yunxi.
Zuo Yi didn't tell Gu Yunxi the truth that her parents were kidnapped. The truth would be buried forever.
Although his purpose of coming to Saint George had been achieved, Zuo Yi didn't leave Saint George immediately after receiving the news that Gu Kai and his wife had arrived safely in Hangzhou.
On the morning of the third day, he quietly checked out of the hotel room and embarked on the journey to the south.
After passing through the Amazon Plain, Zuo Yi entered the Barbaro Plateau.
The Barbaro Plateau was the world's largest plateau other than the Antarctic Snow Plateau. It covered an area of more than five million square kilometers. It crossed the subtropics and was close to the equator of the Bluestar. It had a unique topography and natural scenery.
Back then, Zuo Yi encountered a thunderstorm when he was hiking on the Barbaro Plateau. As a result, he transmigrated to the world of Sadeya.
This time, he was revisiting the old place.
Riding on the Griffin, he flew for more than two thousand kilometers. When he was about to reach his destination, a large area of thunderclouds appeared in front of him. Lightning could be seen swimming in the clouds from afar.
Zuo Yi didn't let Ajiu go directly into the thunderstorm area. Instead, he let it land on the ground. Then, he took out the Grand Cherokee from the Space Ring and drove on.
Relying on the guidance of the satellite navigation, he arrived at River Cove Town half an hour later.
It was a small town located in the south-central part of the Barbaro Plateau. It was famous because it was adjacent to Sarsanz, known as the Holy Land of Hikers. Zuo Yi once stayed in River Cove Town for a night and then hiked to Sarsanz.
River Cove Town was named after a large river valley next to it. Most of the townspeople were local aborigines. There were about two to three thousand people. In addition to grazing and farming, they also provided various services to travelers.
It was also a small town for travelers.
What surprised Zuo Yi was that compared to four years ago, River Cove Town was much more deserted. When he drove into the town, he saw that most of the shops and hotels on both sides of the road were closed. There were very few pedestrians.
When Zuo Yi first came here, tourists from all over the world gathered together and made the town as lively as a carnival.
In just a few years, it had declined to such a state. Zuo Yi was greatly surprised.
With a trace of doubt, he parked the car next to a tavern that was still open.
When Zuo Yi got out of the car and went into the tavern, he found that there were very few customers.
The billiard table next to it was covered in dust. The jukebox in the corner was deserted. An old bartender with white hair was lazily wiping glasses behind the bar.
When they saw Zuo Yi, a foreign visitor, a few of the local townspeople who were drinking were surprised.
Zuo Yi went straight to the counter and said in English, "A glass of Casassa, thank you."
Casassa was the national liquor of Pablo. It was a spirit distilled from sugar cane juice. It was very similar to rum, but it was brewed in a different way. It was loved by the Pablo people.
The old bartender took the bottle and glass and poured a glass for Zuo Yi.
He asked curiously, "Young man, where are you from?"
Zuo Yi took the glass and said, "I just came from Saint George. I'm going to visit Sassanth."
"Sassanth?"
The old bartender was shocked. "Don't you know? A few years ago, Sassanth became a forbidden place. You can't go there anymore. "
Zuo Yi really did not know. "What happened?"
Through the conversation with the old bartender, he learned that a few years ago, Sassanth suddenly had a violent meteorological change. There were continuous thunderstorms all year round, and many travelers died because of it!
Under such circumstances, the local government issued a travel warning, telling tourists not to go to Sassanth anymore.
River Cove Town, which relied on Sassanth for its prosperity, declined rapidly. Now, there were only a few hundred townspeople left.
The old bartender had not seen a tourist for a long time!
