Chapter 701 Repaying kindness
Next, Zhou Weihua and Anan were taken away together.
In a luxurious room, Zhou Weihua was also bound hand and foot, standing in the center of the room with Anan. Sitting on the sofa in front of him was Sakata Saburo, the leader of the Dragon Slayer Gang. Dragon Brother and other big shots in the gang sat on sofas on either side.
At this moment, Saburo Sakata seemed more interested in Zhou Weihua than in the "thing" that had been lost.
"Zhou Weihua, what about your other friends?" Saburo Sakata asked him with a smile.
"I went to play somewhere else." Zhou Weihua showed no signs of nervousness or fear. Instead, he remained calm and answered with a smile, then asked, "Are you the leader of the Dragon Slaying Gang?"
“Exactly,” Saburo Sakata laughed. “Do you know why my men want to capture you?”
"I know. My friends and I wiped out a branch of your Dragon Slayer Gang called the Tiger Shark Gang," he replied calmly.
"Now that you know, aren't you afraid I'll kill you?" Saburo Sakata asked again, his smile unchanged.
“You wouldn’t dare kill me,” Zhou Weihua said with an air of righteous indignation.
"Oh?" Sakata Saburo seemed increasingly interested. "Why wouldn't I dare kill you?"
Zhou Weihua said, "If you kill me, my friends will never let you go. I guarantee that if anything happens to me, the entire entertainment city will suffer, and none of you will be able to leave here."
Saburo Sakata, still all smiles, said, "Then I'll have to wait and see."
"Sakata Saburo, don't disbelieve me, I'm telling the truth. Our boss is not someone a Japanese person like you can afford to offend." Zhou Weihua was full of confidence, showing no sign of nervousness whatsoever.
"You mean the leader of the Heavenly Dragon Gang, right?"
"No," Zhou Weihua shook his head.
"Oh? Who is that? Can you tell me?" Saburo Sakata asked with interest.
Zhou Weihua smiled, then said smugly, "Sakata Saburo, I'm sorry, it's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that our boss said we can't tell anyone. But one thing is certain, even the leader of the Hongmen treats our boss like a brother!"
Upon hearing this, Saburo Sakata smiled. He had thoroughly investigated the information about Zhou Weihua and his seven companions. Apart from Wang Dakeng and Chao Bufan, who had some family background—one being the young master of the Tianlong Gang and the other the son of a listed company's owner—the other five had no family connections or powerful backers. Therefore, when Zhou Weihua uttered these words, Saburo Sakata knew that the kid was bragging.
"Kid, I didn't expect that besides being somewhat skilled, you also have the ability to boast," Sakata Saburo said with a smile.
"That's right." Zhou Weihua laughed smugly, then realized something was wrong and quickly changed his tune: "Hey, hey, hey, what are you saying? I'm not bragging, I'm telling the truth. Our boss is someone none of you can afford to mess with."
Sakata Saburo laughed and said, "In that case, why don't you call your boss and ask him to come and rescue you? I'd like to see who this boss you're talking about really is."
"This..." Zhou Weihua stammered, inwardly lamenting his predicament and burning with anxiety. "Extraordinary, you're in deep trouble! Hurry up and come save us! If you don't come soon, it'll be too late!"
"What? Are you too scared to fight, or did I hit the nail on the head?" Saburo Sakata asked.
Chen Haonan said, "Third Master, this kid is full of nonsense, let's just give him a stab."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Weihua's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly said, "Hey, hey, hey, you better not do anything reckless! If my boss finds out that you've treated me like this, he'll wipe out your Dragon Slayer Gang."
Saburo Sakata stood up and walked up to Zhou Weihua. He didn't look at Anan once, because in his eyes, Anan was nothing, no different from a dead man. Moreover, he had plenty of ways to make Anan hand over the things.
“Zhou Weihua, I don’t have time to listen to your nonsense. Tell me, what is your purpose in coming here?” Sakata Saburo’s face was stern, but his smile concealed a knife.
Zhou Weihua said, "This is an entertainment center, of course I came here to have fun!"
Saburo Sakata took out a dark, bean-sized object and waved it in front of Zhou Weihua's eyes, then laughed and asked, "Do you know what this is?"
Zhou Weihua looked at it and asked cautiously, "What?"
Saburo Sakata said, "This thing is made by combining the essence of eight kinds of extremely poisonous animals and plants, such as centipede, cobra, toad, and deadly grass. It is then soaked in arsenic before it is finished. I guarantee that after you eat it, you will be in the Western Paradise in less than a second; and in less than three seconds, you will be completely reduced to nothingness."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Weihua staggered and almost collapsed to the ground, stammering, "Third...Third Master, don't do anything rash! I'm warning you, if anything happens to me, I guarantee your entertainment center will be reduced to ruins in an instant."
Brother Long looked at the "thing" in his hand and said, "It seems I'll have to waste this thing."
As he spoke, he grabbed Zhou Weihua's chin with his other hand, startling Zhou Weihua so much that his face changed drastically. Zhou Weihua mumbled incoherently and tried to twist away. However, Sakata Saburo's grip was too strong; with a single pull, his mouth opened, and just as he was about to shove the "thing" in his hand into Zhou Weihua's mouth, Anan spoke up: "Stop!"
Upon hearing this, Saburo Sakata looked at Anan, sneered, and said, "What, are you now willing to reveal the whereabouts of that thing?"
His veiled attack successfully forced Anan to confess without being asked.
Anan smiled slightly and said, "Third Master, release him first, and then I'll tell you."
Zhou Weihua was taken aback for a moment, then quickly pulled away from Sakata Saburo's hand and asked in surprise, "Nanlin, what are you doing?"
Anan gave a wry smile and said, "You rascal, why did you have to come here of all places?"
Zhou Weihua said irritably, "You have the nerve to say that? After not seeing each other for years, you give me such a big 'surprise' as soon as we meet."
"Who told you to be so arrogant and come to places you shouldn't be? Whose fault is it?" Anan said in an equally irritable tone.
"I kindly saved you, but you don't know how to repay kindness. Fine, I've been cursed for eight lifetimes since I met you!"
"Who asked you to save them? You can't even take care of yourself, and you're still telling me these useless things."
