After the three of them landed on the ground, before they could even react, a golden light flashed past them. The Wisdom King's Scripture had the effect of sealing Inner Strength and was injected into their bodies, sealing their Inner Strength. Under the effects of their injuries, the three of them fell to the ground, unable to move.
The remaining men in black who were going to rescue the other person stopped in their tracks and stood in the middle. They were caught in a dilemma.
Who should they save first?
Zhou Fu's combat power was too shocking. Should they save the other person or run away? This was another problem.
At this moment, a large group of Zhou Fu's guards rushed over. The men in black did not hesitate and leaped into the air. After using the wooden frame as leverage, they landed on a distant roof. After a few more leaps, they disappeared into the night.
Zhou Fu did not chase after them. He looked at the four men in black who were restrained by the guards and ordered the new head of the Elysium's guards, Duan Cheng, "Duan Cheng, I'll leave these people to you. Come find me after you've interrogated them."
"Yes, sir!"
Duan Cheng replied and waved his hand. A group of guards took the men in black and left. The place they were heading to was the Elysium's torture chamber.
The Elysium was not only a gambling den, but also one of the Giant Whale's bases. Naturally, it had a comprehensive set of facilities, such as a dungeon and torture chamber.
After settling the matter, Zhou Fu did not leave immediately. Instead, he returned to his previous room and sat cross-legged, waiting for Duan Cheng's news.
Time passed little by little. The originally dark night sky began to brighten. Slowly, a white light appeared on the horizon, followed by the rising sun.
Zhou Fu, who was sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes. He had been awakened by hunger.
Thus, he walked out of his room and asked Jin Peng to prepare breakfast for him.
As the head shopkeeper of the Elysium and the foreign affairs butler appointed by Zhou Fu, Jin Peng was quite capable. Knowing that Zhou Fu had not returned, he had already asked the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
After Zhou Fu gave the order, plates of dishes were brought to the table.
However, when Zhou Fu was halfway through his meal, Duan Cheng walked in with a tired look on his face and a stack of papers in his hand.
He came to the table and said, "My Lord, this is the information I obtained from the interrogation. Please take a look." As he spoke, he placed the paper in his hand on the table.
Zhou Fu nodded and pointed to the chair opposite him. "You've been busy all night. Sit down and eat something."
Duan Cheng, who was standing at the side, was excited. He never thought that he would be able to eat at the same table as Zhou Fu. He hurriedly said, "Your subordinate doesn't dare. Besides, this is what your subordinate should do.
I'm not the only one who did this. My brothers also contributed a lot. "
"It's fine. Sit down and eat."
Zhou Fu turned to the maidservant beside him and said, "Let Jin Peng prepare some food and send it to those brothers."
"Yes, sir."
Just like that, Duan Cheng sat down with trepidation and picked up his bowl and chopsticks to eat.
The two of them ate, but neither of them spoke.
During this time, Duan Cheng's eyes kept looking at Zhou Fu with a nervous look on his face.
Zhou Fu, on the other hand, only buried his head in eating. He didn't even look at the confession on the side.
After a while, Duan Cheng, who had something on his mind, really couldn't eat anymore. He simply put down his bowl and chopsticks and watched Zhou Fu eat.
When Zhou Fu finished eating, the maidservant also removed the tableware on the table. At this time, Duan Cheng was anxious and couldn't sit still.
He looked at Zhou Fu and said in an anxious and cautious tone, "My Lord, don't you want to look at the confession?"
At this time, Zhou Fu was just about to send Duan Cheng away, but when he heard the other party's question, he was stunned for a moment. He looked at the other party and then, under Duan Cheng's surprised gaze, picked up the confession and looked at it.
After flipping through two pages, Zhou Fu was so angry that he laughed out loud.
The night attack on the construction site was actually not done by a single force. Those who were caught by Zhou Fu came from two different forces.
At the construction site, Zhou Fu caught a total of four people. One of them died before he could ask anything because of his serious injuries.
The other two only said that they were from the Red Sea gang. When asked about other things, the two of them kept their mouths shut. In the end, when the interrogators weren't paying attention, they used a special method to commit suicide.
The last person admitted that he was from the Jin family. It was the family whose alchemist Zhou Fu robbed. They were also a famous medicine merchant in Dongcheng.
And the person who died of serious injuries was also from the Jin family.
At this time, the fun came.
The other black-clothed men, that person actually didn't know any of them!
Seeing this, Zhou Fu had the urge to roll his eyes.
After reading a few pages of statements, Zhou Fu looked at Duan Cheng and asked, "So, now there's only one left alive?"
Duan Cheng was scared out of his wits. He immediately rolled to the ground and knelt in front of Zhou Fu. He said in horror, "Please forgive me, my lord. Those people's methods are too strange … This … This is the first time I've seen them."
Hearing this, Zhou Fu couldn't help but be curious. He asked, "What methods?"
"This subordinate's group of brothers can be considered to have interrogated a lot of people. We've also heard a lot of stories about the underworld.
Ordinary men of sacrifice would hide the poison in their teeth or under their tongues. But these people … they actually took the poison in advance. "
At this time, panic appeared in Duan Cheng's eyes.
Hiding poison and taking poison were two different concepts. Who could send out men of sacrifice of this level?
Not only was Duan Cheng puzzled, but Zhou Fu was also confused.
In his memory, the only people who could do something like this were the Giant Whale's leader, Xing Gang, and the deputy leader, Shi Long.
He had seen Xing Gang's men. Not only had he seen them, but he had also killed them.
Logically speaking, now that Xing Gang had restricted Zhou Fu with the pill limit, he probably wouldn't send anyone else. Could it be Shi Long's men?
Zhou Fu wasn't sure about this. He didn't believe that Shi Long could train such men of sacrifice.
For the time being, excluding Xing Gang and Shi Long, Zhou Fu felt even more confused. He didn't seem to have provoked any more enemies, right?
Among the Giant Whale, there were only four people who were friends with Zhou Fu.
Among the four, the first was Elder Wu, who was far away in Heyang City. Then there was the leader, Xing Gang, and the deputy leader, Shi Long.
The last one was the strange Foreign Affairs Emissary, Zhao Wanshan, whom he met at the Chen family.
"That's strange …" Zhou Fu shook his head and sighed secretly.
He looked at Duan Cheng, who was still kneeling, and said, "Get up first. Since that's the case, it's not your fault."
Duan Cheng was overjoyed and quickly thanked him, "Thank you, Sir!"
Seeing Zhou Fu drinking tea silently, he knew that Zhou Fu meant to send him away. But how could he leave at this time? He hadn't said the most important thing yet.
"Sir!"
Duan Cheng took a deep breath and said, "If I may be so bold as to ask, are we going to get back at the Jin family?"
Zhou Fu looked at Duan Cheng in surprise. He thought for a while and didn't answer. Instead, he asked, "What do you think?"
Duan Cheng said, "Sir, please leave this matter to us. We will definitely satisfy you.
Although the Huang and Chen families have been subdued by you, they are still outsiders.
My brothers and I are all Giant Whale's men. We are loyal to you and will never betray you. "
