Chapter 281 – Triad Father
Afternoon at 6pm, I made Zha Jiang Mian to prove I made delicious noodles. Then I waited in the living room with my legs crossed for the Five Tiger Punishment Squad to deliver Shu Zhe to me.
At first, I was worried Shu Zhe would cry and struggle and cause a big scene. When Xing Xing knocked on my door, I never expected to see a limp Shu Zhe who was quieter than death.
The small living room was filled to the brim after I invited six people inside. I took a good look at Shu Zhe and couldn’t help but frown.
Shu Zhe clearly fainted. Although I can’t see any external injuries, he had a pale white face, four limp limbs, and why was his crotch wet. There was also a strange smell wafting around…
Xing Xing scratched his head and apologized to me:
“Bro Ye, I followed your orders and scared him a bit after I kidnapped him. Who knew he was a scaredy-cat and not only did he faint, he also wet his pants…”
Fuck, you made Shu Zhe wet his pants? Can you not put in too much effort? What lies did you tell him?
According to Xing Xing’s explanation, he immediately closed the car door after he dragged Shu Zhe in without any warnings. He told his brothers to hold down Shu Zhe and they also made him wear a thick black blindfold.
Of course, Shu Zhe quivered and asked them who they were and why they caught him. Xing Xing remembered my orders, so he began to tell a narrative.
“We’re the Triads and we’re here to take your life.”
I was satisfied with the first sentence, because under the glorious dictatorship of the proletariat, only Hong Kong and Taiwan still have remnants of organized crime.
“Wh…. why.” Shu Zhe asked in a sobbing tone.
“Why, why.” The Five Tiger Punishment squad all stared at each other before Xing Xing slapped his thigh:
“Because you offended brother Ye Lin. Betraying him as an advisor is akin to throwing yourself in Hell.”
Awesome, he sold me out in the second sentence.
Xing Xing was still afraid his lie wouldn’t be believed, so he added:
“Do you think Ye Lin is a normal person? He’s a high ranking member of the Triads…”
Then he thought I would be too young to be a high-ranking officer, so he added:
“He’s a high ranking member of the triad… ‘s son.”
Damn, so now my dad is also a member of the Triads and he’s even a high ranking member. Did you ever see my dad asking for protection fees?
The rhythm of the engine, the chattering of the Five Tigers, and being bound all gave a lot of psychological stress to Shu Zhe.
“So, Ye Lin’s father is a member of the Triads. No wonder I’ve never met him because he was busy committing crimes.”
Your dad is committing crimes, my dad writes teaching materials, okay?
When Xing Xing saw the lies were working, he made it even more severe:
“Kid, did you know Ye Lin’s father, Ye FeiHong (this is not my father’s name), is a well-known man of steel in the Triads.”
“That’s right.” The second member of the Five Tigers chimed in, “Ye FeiHong has excellent martial arts. He could fly over rooftops and vault high walls, there’s not a single person who doesn’t respect him.”
The remaining three Tigers also joined the conversation and turned the fake Ye FeiHong into a real person.
“I heard Mr. Ye is experienced with torture.”
“That’s right, leg vises are normal for him. Mr. Ye is ruthless. I heard one of his victims willingly drank urine after being tortured by him.”
“Brother Ye Lin is kindhearted and compassionate compared to his father.”
“Exactly! He wanted to give the person who betrayed him a way out. When Mr. Ye FeiHong heard, he got pissed and sent us here to drown you in Dong Shan Lake.”
Uncle Zhang who was driving couldn’t help but laugh where there lies became more and more far-fetched.
Shu Zhe originally had a bit of disbelief and thought the students who were the same as him were only joking around. But when he heard a grown man laugh, he also remembered they were driving a three-row Mercedes SUV. It wouldn’t be logical for them to spend so much money on a joke.
In addition, the Five Tigers stopped lying and began discussing events that occurred in criminal circles. Such as who got sent to prison, who got shot dead, and who banged whose chick…
Although the Five Tiger Punishment Squad aren’t great at being criminals, they are well-versed in criminal circle gossip. The more they spoke, the more Shu Zhe believed these five were cold-blooded murderers.
Shu Zhe promptly began to plead:
“Gentleman, I’m begging you… you can do anything, but please don’t kill me. I’m not ready to die yet.”
Xing Xing spat on Shu Zhe’s white face.
“It’s too late. Turn left at the next traffic light and drive us to Dong Shan lake. Let’s sink him and call bro Ye Lin out later to eat some seafood.”
“Please don’t drown me!” Shu Zhe yelled and struggled, but he was held down from two sides.
“You guys can’t drown me.” Shu Zhe began to cry, “My sister will get married to Ye Lin in the future. I’m his brother-in-law, you can’t treat me like this.”
Xing Xing sneered, “Bro Ye Lin is getting a wife, not a brother-in-law. Even if you die, it wouldn’t affect his marriage.”
The second tiger said: “Man, this kid is noisy. Why don’t we cap him first before tossing him in the lake.”
He took out a stainless steel lighter in the shape of a gun and aimed it at Shu Zhe’s head.
After Shu Zhe heard the ‘click’ of a trigger and the cold muzzle pressed against him, he fainted.
The lighter didn’t have any gas, so the muzzle didn’t light up. However, it was enough to make Shu Zhe wet himself.
Uncle Zhang was left to take care of the mess left behind, while the Five Tigers disguised Shu Zhe as a drunkard and brought him up into my living room.
I was slightly dissatisfied how dirty they made him, so I pointed at the shower and said,
“Two of you take off his clothes and hand him to me after he’s washed clean.”
