Chapter 71

3！

When Kieran saw the number tattoo, more numbers popped up in his mind. `

In simple words, if there was a 3, then there would be a 12 if he were to count forward, and 45 if he were to count backward, or even more.

"Could there be more than one Kailuark the Executioner?"

Kieran wondered in his heart.

Based on the power that Sphendix had displayed, it would not be difficult for them to recruit a bunch of good men and make them share the same name or nickname.

The man in front of Kieran was only one of them.

Of course, what concerned Kieran the most was why the man was here.

He could not have followed them.

The only possibility was Creedo!

Sphendix had followed Riley's lead and discovered the connection between Creedo and Lerner. Sphendix had then started to kill him!

"That was fast!"

Kieran took a deep breath and exclaimed at the power that Sphendix wielded.

If he had been one step slower, he would have lost the last bit of his chance to get a lead.

However, he still had to confirm the identity of the man in front of him.

Kieran was confident that it was indeed Kailuark the Executioner.

"Larry!

"Is this the 'Executioner' Kerouac that you know?"

Kieran asked Larry, who knew the man very well.

Larry got out of the car and squatted down in front of the body, using the light from his phone to examine it.

Even though he had already confirmed the man's identity, he still had to spend another 10 seconds trying to identify the man.

He had to spend another 10 seconds trying to identify the man.

After all, this was a question from the Shadow Stinger!

Larry had misunderstood Kieran's identity, so he treated the matter with 120% seriousness.

After confirming that there was no mistake, he said. `

"Yes! It's this guy!

As expected of the legendary Shadow Stinger! Only you could kill the Executioner so easily! "

Larry said in admiration.

"What?

What Shadow Stinger? "

Kieran was surprised by the term that Larry had mentioned.

"Nothing! I know!

You're hiding your identity!

Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about it!

"This is a secret between us, a secret that belongs only to friends!"

"So, can you tell me why you disappeared for three years? Was it because of a woman? Or a man? "

Riley said with a smile.

However, what he said after that... Revealed his true nature as an informant.

"I am not the Shadow Stinger!"

Kieran repeated.

He had a rough idea of what had happened. Riley had mistaken him for someone with the title of Shadow Stinger because of his battle with the Executioner.

"Fine, fine! If you say no, then no!

Then why did you become a reporter? "

Larry had agreed verbally. However, he was still pestering Kieran.

"If you want to wait for the patrolmen here, continue asking questions!"

Kieran rolled his eyes in annoyance.

Then, he took the unconscious Creedo and his backpack out of the car and walked toward the end of the alley.

Larry shouted.

Larry chased after him. to.

...

Creedo was woken up by a bucket of cold water. `

Then he looked at Riley, who was grinning. He immediately shouted, "Riley, what are you doing?"

As he shouted, Creedo struggled with all his might.

However, the ropes did not loosen. Instead, they tightened and intersected, digging into Creedo's fat.

"Don't struggle!

"This is a binding method I learned from a bounty hunter!"

The more you struggle, the tighter they will get! "

Larry explained with a smile.

However, Larry's expression changed as he stared at Creedo with a ferocious glare. Before Creedo could say anything, Larry landed a series of punches on his face.

"Hire the Moloch Brothers!

You want to kill me?

"Do you think I'm dead for sure?"

Huh? You stupid pig! "

Larry roared as he punched Creedo.

His roar echoed in the underground room, but it could not cover the sound of the punches.

Bang, Bang, Bang!

The dull, heavy blows showed that Riley had put all his strength into each punch.

After four or five punches, Creedo's already plump face became even more swollen. Blood flowed from the corners of his eyes and nose. Two of his teeth had fallen out.

Larry seemed to be tired from the punches.

He was panting heavily.

Then he turned around and walked to his toolbox.

A moment later, he took out a pair of pliers.

"No!

You can't do this!

"If you do this, you will destroy your reputation as an intelligence merchant!"

When Creedo saw the pliers … Creedor shouted in panic.

"Of course I can do this!

As for my reputation?

Sphendix Corporation has their eyes on me, so everything is ruined! What's the use of my reputation?

Don't worry, the night is long. I'll treat you well!

"Otherwise, how can I repay you for your 'hospitality'?"

Riley opened the pincer and put Creedo's index finger into it.

Then... Larry did not give Creedo a chance. He squeezed the pliers tightly.

"Ah!"

Creedo screamed in agony.

However, when Riley let go of his index finger and aimed the pliers at his middle finger, Creedo's screams stopped abruptly.

He said quickly.

"I didn't order my men to take revenge on you!

"I'm not the one who messed with Lerner!"

I didn't know Sphendix Corporation would make such a big move because of this bastard! "

Creedo seemed to have misunderstood something.

But that was exactly what Riley needed. He stopped moving and looked at Clido.

"Who is it then?

Who gave you instructions, you bastard? "

Larry asked.

"It's … It's …"

"Aaaaargh!"

Kerry hesitated for a moment. Then, a sharp pain appeared on his middle finger.

Then, Riley mercilessly shifted his target to Creedo's ring finger.

"Stop!

Stop! I'll talk!

"I'll tell you everything I know!"

Please let me go! "

Creedo begged.

Kieran, who was standing in the corner, could not help but smile when he heard Creedo's pleas.

As expected, Creedo knew something that they did not.

From the beginning to the end, Kieran had been standing in a corner where Creedo could not see him with his arms crossed.

"Leave it to me!

I know how to deal with a bastard like Creedo! "

Larry said when they arrived at the basement, which had once belonged to a gang.

Kieran did not mind Larry's help.

Besides, Larry's identity as an informant allowed him to understand Creedo well enough. Therefore, Kieran had reason to believe that Larry would be able to deal with Creedo easily.

Larry did not betray Kieran's trust.

While Larry was interrogating Creedo, Kieran was not idling around either.

His Intuition was constantly monitoring his surroundings.

Riley had assured him that the basement had nothing to do with him, and that the gang had long since disappeared. Even Sphendix Financial Group would not be able to find this place so quickly.

Compared to Larry's assurance, Kieran trusted his own cautiousness more.

Even if it was a waste of time, Kieran would not be upset about it.

This was because his own life was ten thousand times more important than wasting his time.

After a while, Larry walked over with an ugly look on his face.

"Kermde!

Kermde was the one who gave Creedo instructions!

The king of the underground, Kermde!

"Everyone calls him 'Mr. Dumb G'!"

Riley said it with difficulty, as if he had used all his strength to say it.

PS: This is the second update! After that, he would eat something, take a break, and add a chapter for everyone.

It might be late though, so those who slept early could read it tomorrow morning.

Then, he would ask for monthly tickets and subscriptions! (To be continued.)
