Chapter 381: Demon and Angel

After Gu Ci disappeared following Lu Zhiyuan’s teleportation, she told Jiang Junlin everything that had happened, down to the smallest detail. Jiang Junlin was clearly focused on Lu Zhiyuan and was only concerned about not involving Gu Ci.
Jiang Junlin wouldn’t worry about Lu Zhiyuan if his sister was fine.
“Black Hawk will investigate this matter. Both Ji Chi and Rong Li are here, so nothing major should happen. They’ve also captured a few live witnesses. In the coming days, avoid too much contact with Lu Zhiyuan until they uncover the truth.”
“Understood!”
Gu Ci felt a bit tired, and Jiang Junlin didn’t stay at the Blue Fields Villa for long. Qin Wan followed him out, and seeing her looking downcast, Jiang Junlin spoke gently, “This was an unexpected incident. Don’t dwell on it too much. Cici has a sense of propriety. If she doesn’t want you to follow, don’t follow, or follow discreetly so she doesn’t notice.”
“Oh…”
Seeing her unhappy, Jiang Junlin patted her head. “I’ll buy you a large flat soon. Don’t be upset.”
“I want a penthouse.” Qin Wan was never one to be shy about her desires.
“Alright!”
Jiang Junlin left with Zhang Qiang, who asked, “Master, are we not going to investigate the attack on Lu Zhiyuan?”
“Black Hawk’s matter is not our concern,” Jiang Junlin said indifferently.
He didn’t need to waste resources on an investigation. If he wanted to know anything, he would ask Ji Chi. If Ji Chi didn’t say anything, he wouldn’t care. Who would be concerned about how an enemy was attacked?
He hadn’t kicked Lu Zhiyuan while he was down, nor had he sent anyone to attack him. That could be considered his kindness.
Lu Zhiyuan remained in a coma for the rest of the night. The doctors couldn’t find anything wrong, even though he had a full-body examination and all his indicators were normal. They couldn’t understand why he remained unconscious.
“Young Master has always had excellent physical qualities. He rarely suffers from minor illnesses or injuries. He recovers from injuries faster than ordinary people. This time, we really can’t find any issues,” the doctor explained.
Rong Li was irritable. They couldn’t make a big fuss about this matter, and even the hospital director had personally examined Lu Zhiyuan, finding no serious problems. Ji Chi and Rong Li were helpless, as this central hospital was privately owned by the Lu family and attracted top-notch physicians. If they couldn’t cure him, no one could.
Li Jiang didn’t know why, but he knew that Third Young Master had a unique physique. Could it be related to teleportation? Li Jiang said, “Let’s wait for Third Young Master to wake up. He might wake up tomorrow.”
Rong Li frowned, “Has he ever had this kind of situation before?”
Li Jiang shook his head, he had never encountered anything like this.
“Could Third Young Master have some hidden illness?” Rong Li asked.
Li Jiang hesitated and didn’t say anything.
Ji Chi had a dark expression and kicked him, saying, “If you’re not good at Chinese, don’t use it incorrectly. ‘Hidden illness’ doesn’t mean what you think.”
Li Jiang stayed at the hospital, while Ji Chi and Rong Li had their own business to attend to. The incident with the bodyguards and the collision had left one critically ill and another severely injured, thanks to the sturdy car and well-designed airbags, they didn’t die on the spot, but the situation was still not optimistic. They were in the ICU for observation. The two individuals from the other party had died on the spot, and they had captured one person alive. This person was lucky; when the collision occurred, he was thrown out of the windshield and landed in a field, suffering only minor injuries. He was quickly apprehended. Rong Li hadn’t caught the escaped individuals, but having one live captive was enough.
In the interrogation room, Rong Li sat in a chair, smoking a cigar, and the arrested man had a broken right leg, which had just been set.
Rong Li lit his cigar and said, “1 have a bad temper. Tell me who ordered you, straightforwardly, to spare yourself from physical pain.”
“If you have the guts, go ahead and kill me!”
Ji Chi shook his head from the side. This was Rong Li’s area when it came to interrogations.
Rong Li sneered, “Threatening me? Do you think I’m easily frightened?”
He kicked the man’s chest and abdomen, “Killing you would dirty my hands. We live in a society governed by the rule of law. What’s the point of violence and threats? It doesn’t look good.”
The man screamed in pain.
Rong Li stepped on the spot where the bone had just been set, blowing a smoke ring, “We have a hundred and eight methods for making your life worse than death in Black Hawk. No need to rush, I guarantee you’ll have had enough. Even the King of Hell won’t take you.”
He applied more force, and the recently mended bone broke again.
“All…”
The man clutched his leg in agony, and Rong Li waved his hand, “Doctor, reattach the broken bone for him.”
Ji Chi shook his head and watched as the doctor reluctantly gave the man medical attention, casting a disapproving glance at Rong Li. The doctor was diligently resetting the man’s bone.
Rong Li said, “If you heal him ten times, and 1’11 break his leg ten times, will he be disabled for life?”
The doctor gritted his teeth, “What do you think?”
Rong Li replied sarcastically, “Oh, I can’t bear to do it anymore.”
Ji Chi played the good cop, “Brother, just tell us what you know. This is the crudest man in Black Hawk. He won’t joke around with you.”
Rong Li sneered, “In terms of cruelty, I’m not even in the top five in Black Hawk. You might rank in the top two.”
Ji Chi glared at him, “Why are you undermining me?”
“It’s not me undermining you. Wherever you stand, he trembles with fear. Didn’t you see it?” Rong Li couldn’t help but complain. This guy knew who the real Yama was. “He has good judgment.”
“I didn’t see it!” Ji Chi said calmly. “Looks like he’s not scared enough; he hasn’t said a single word of truth. Maybe we should break his other leg too.”
The doctor said, “Can you guys please act like human beings? Don’t actually do this ten times; I’m very busy.”
An hour later, when the doctor returned, the man was barely alive. The doctor had an expressionless face, “Did he talk?”
Ji Chi wiped the bloodstains from his hands with a wet towel, “Tough nut, didn’t say anything.”
The doctor examined the man’s injuries, “If he hasn’t said anything in this condition, it’s unlikely we’ll get anything out of him.”
Ji Chi said, “Not necessarily. I haven’t touched his face yet. He looks to be in his thirties. I’ve already instructed the information department to find information on him.” Ji Chi leaned down and patted the man’s cheek. “Brother, do you have a wife and children?”
The man suddenly struggled violently, as if he wanted to take Ji Chi down with him. Ji Chi stepped back, casually smiling. Rong Li said, “I told you, I’m kinder than him, but you didn’t listen.”
Ji Chi didn’t like involving wives and children. In principle, one person should take responsibility for their own actions. He also disliked coercion and temptation. In this world, who didn’t have weaknesses? What would he feel if someone threatened him with Jiang Junlin?
But when it came to interrogation, anything was fair game.
He wouldn’t actually harm the man’s family, as long as the man believed he would, that would be enough.
The information department quickly provided the details.
Ji Chi stood in front of the man, reading his information aloud, “Cai Jun, from South City in A City. You’re a lucky man, brother. You have a pair of twins, and your daughter is really beautiful!”
He seemed like a wicked, malicious murderer, smiling and giving a sinister appraisal of his target.
Cai Jun fiercely resisted, shouting, “Don’t touch them, you bastard, don’t touch them.”
Rong Li shook his head, “You’ve done my job for me. What am I supposed to do now? Why do 1 feel like you’re sexually frustrated and filled with so much malice?”
“You actually got that right.” Ji Chi smirked evilly, his little dimples appearing somewhat innocent. He placed a photo in front of Cai Jun, “Your two children. Whether they live through tonight depends on your cooperation.. 1’11 ask again, who ordered you to attack Third Master?”
