The main thing is to make money, and the rest is just a matter of convenience.

I opened the envelope, and a note and a photo fell out. It read: "To see the person in the photo, come to Shinjuku Kabukicho Ichibangai at 8 PM and wait under the 8th Corridor." Black Dragon Society!

Haha! Before coming here, Hua Yan had learned about the local customs and practices of East Market in detail. She knew that the street they were talking about was the famous red-light district in Country J, a place where all kinds of people mixed together, including demons and monsters.

"Jiu'er, we don't know anyone here. Mr. Miao and his team have discussed a lot of cooperation. Maybe we have infringed on other people's interests and are being held responsible."

The first thing Liu Liang thought of was commercial interests.

"It shouldn't be. I haven't participated in any of the negotiations here. If it's a business competition, they shouldn't find me. Why do I feel like it has something to do with the Guishan family?"

"I've done some research. The Guishan family is one of the most powerful families in Country J, but the Black Dragon Society is no less powerful than the Guishan family. Could it be that they have a conflict with the Guishan family, and seeing that we're so close to them, they're trying to intimidate us?"

An Xin was also puzzled.

"Let's go and fight them. Uncle Miao and the others don't have much fighting power, so let's rescue them first."

"Let's go and take everyone with us."

"Divide into three groups. One group will stay here to protect the Rong family, one group will be responsible for the rearguard and support, and one group will go with us to meet the Black Dragon Society."

Hua Yan immediately formed a battle plan.

An Xin and Liu Liang went out to make arrangements, and Hua Yan carried the bag on her shoulder.

Shinjuku Kabukicho Ichiban Street

The whole street is decorated with various colorful lights, which looks dazzling and makes people feel as if they are in an unreal world.

The men and women on the street all had smiles on their faces, as if this was heaven, without pain and worries.

There was a store called "Temptation" with four burly men standing outside, looking at the people coming and going with expressionless faces, which seemed to be out of harmony with the atmosphere of the whole street.

In a private room inside, Miao Xianxing pretended to be calm and tried to comfort everyone:

"Don't panic, everyone. They said they wanted to discuss business with Jiuer, and they didn't mean anything else."

Miao Xianxing knew that Hua Yan was coming to Country J this time, so he asked An Xin and Liu Liang to bring a lot of people with her. Although he didn't know what the matter was, Hua Yan had never participated in business negotiations, so he knew that Hua Yan had other things to do.

The people An Xin and Liu Liang brought with them were all elite veterans of the military. Their fighting power was so high that ordinary forces couldn't really do anything to them. Therefore, Miao Xianxing remained calm and tried to appease them.

Miao Xianxing felt that they were not discussing business, but rather something else related to Hua Yan. He was also worried about Hua Yan's safety, but with An Xin and Liu Liang around, it shouldn't be a big problem.

"Uncle Miao, Jiuer won't be in danger, right?"

As soon as Taiji knew these people were looking for Hua Yan, his heart started beating faster. He was scared, very scared that Hua Yan was in danger.

"It's okay. Believe in Jiuer. She will definitely find a way. Besides, we have no conflict with them. They have no reason to hurt Jiuer."

Miao Xianxing said it with ease, but he was actually very nervous inside.

With a "clang", the door opened and a charming woman walked in and approached Miao Xianxing.

"Handsome, if your people don't show up on time, we'll have to make you suffer. There's nothing we can do about it, so don't blame us!

There are still ten minutes left. Who of you will be the first to be tortured?"

As she spoke, the woman looked at everyone, her charming eyes revealing a dark gleam like a snake and scorpion.

Qiu Jiu and Liang Dong walked forward, Kong Wen pulled them to the back and stood in front himself.

"Haha! I like this little brother. I'll be gentler later. Haha!"

As he spoke, he frivolously lifted Kong Wen's chin with his finger.

Kong Wen turned his head and avoided the woman's hand.

"Haha! Still a person with a temper."

The woman looked at the watch on her wrist, a wait-and-see smile on her lips.

-

At this moment, Hua Yan, An Xin, and Liu Liang walked through the street, which was filled with coquettish and unruly voices, and whose faces could not be seen clearly even through the lights, and stood under Corridor No. 8. The others who had followed had already dispersed into the crowd.

Someone in the corridor held up a photo and glanced at them.

"Is it Hua Yan?"

"it's me."

"Come with me."

A gentle man with a kind face and no aggressiveness at all.

Hua Yan didn't waste any words and followed the man forward. An Xin and Liu Liang followed behind, and the others who followed also gathered together.

Passing through the crowd of people, the man stopped in front of the "Temptation" store.

"We're here. You follow me in, and the others stay outside."

The gentleman spoke in a tone that brooked no argument.

"Uncle, I'm scared to be alone. Can you let them both follow me?"

Hua Yan didn't know what was going on inside. She was fine herself, but she was worried that Miao Xianxing and the others might be in danger. Having An Xin and Liu Liang with them was just in case.

"No, you have to come in by yourself. This is what the boss ordered."

"Are you afraid that a little kid like me might be a threat to you?"

Gentleman: "..."

"If not, let us in. There aren't many people here, just three. If you can't make a decision, go in and ask for instructions. We're not in a hurry."

Hua Yan's calm expression made the gentleman feel a little dazed. This was just a child, while this man should be a big man who had experienced many ups and downs.

"Hold on!"

After saying that, the gentleman walked in quickly.

-

In the private room, the woman looked at her watch. The time had come and a bloodthirsty smile appeared on her face.

"Little brother, I'm sorry. I'm a punctual person and I hate people who are not punctual. I'm sorry to have made you suffer."

As he spoke, he pressed Kong Wen's hand on the table and took out a sharp dagger from the pocket on the outside of his thigh. In a flash, the knife came down and cut off a part of Kong Wen's left little finger.

"what!"

Kong Wen's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he clenched his teeth tightly. Apart from the initial instinctive cry, he did not make any other sound.

He wanted to fight with these bastards, but when he thought that the others were ordinary people who were powerless, he gave up the idea of ​​seizing power by force. He didn't want to put everyone in danger because of his impulsiveness.

"Master Xiumei, the boss asked you to bring the person over."

A woman in a kimono walked in with small steps. However, she frowned when she saw Kong Wen's severed finger. It wasn't that she couldn't stand the sight of blood. She had killed countless people, but she simply didn't like the sight of blood.

The woman called Xiumei ignored her, raised her neck to her subordinates, showed a disdainful smile, and said, "Take the person away."

Only Taiji and Miao Xianxing could understand the J language here. Miao Xianxing turned around and said to his own people:

"Don't be afraid, someone wants to see us."

Soon, Miao Xianxing and others were taken to a larger room. It was a little dim inside. The chandelier above their heads was spinning, emitting colorful light, but it was not very bright.

There seemed to be several people sitting on the sofa inside, but their faces were unclear. There were also quite a few people standing nearby. Although there were many people, the room was very quiet.

"Boss, we've brought the man."

"Uncle Miao, are you all okay?"

Hua Yan saw that it was Miao Xianxing and the others who came in, and immediately stood up from her seat. She had been sitting here for a while, just wanting to see if Miao Xianxing and the others were safe and sound.

"Jiu'er..."

Miao Xianxing didn't know what to say. He wanted to say "very good", but Kong Wen's finger was cut off. He wanted to say "not very good", but was afraid that Hua Yan would worry.

Hua Yan noticed Miao Xianxing's confusion and glanced at the crowd. Others couldn't see clearly, but that wasn't a problem for her. Not only was there light, but even in the dark, she could see everything clearly.

"Uncle Wen, what's wrong?"

When Hua Yan saw Kong Wen’s bleeding hand, her expression suddenly turned cold.

"fine."

Kong Wen is a soldier and has strong willpower, but his fingers were cut off. Those fingers are connected to his heart. How can his willpower not make him feel any pain? So his words were trembling.
