Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart-Chapter 670 - 669: A Threat from King Yan (Part 3)
"They’re bought off!"
The many possibilities completely fermented in his mind. Li Yan’s pupils contracted as he said, "You mean, he’s using this tunnel to transport the goods!"
Tie Ma gave a bitter laugh, secretly admiring Li Yan’s intelligence, and said, "Yes, he got in good with the main workers in charge. At night, when there are fewer workers, he sneaks in and transports the poison. This time, he intends to move a large batch out of the Provincial City; it’s his last deal..."
"Last deal? Why?" Li Yan finally grasped the crux of the matter and understood the real reason why Lie She dealt with Gu Tong.
Because he’s about to wash his hands of this trade completely. Currently, there’s no possibility of cooperation, so eliminating obstacles has become his top priority.
"Because the tunnel is about to be completed. By then, transporting poison through it will bear an even greater risk. He’s already under the watch of the Provincial City’s cops. How could he take on any more trouble? He said after this deal, he’ll wash his hands clean and take us away to a place where nobody knows us, to do legitimate business..."
For a cautious person like Lie She, safety is everything. Only when it is absolutely secured can he truly enjoy wealth and glory; otherwise, everything he’s done is just a mirage, and it would all be in vain.
Now, with the tunnel about to be finished, Lie She’s choice is reasonable and exceptionally shrewd.
If Li Yan doesn’t act now, the local police in the Provincial City will have no chance of gathering criminal evidence against Lie She.
Because he would have completely sold out the poison and left the trade entirely.
However, leaving doesn’t mean erasing all crimes!
A person whose hands are stained with blood, no matter how hard they try to wash it off, or wherever they go, will always carry a burden over their life.
Lie She, throughout his life, killed and harmed countless people, destroying numerous families for his selfish gains. In such circumstances, even if he changed his appearance, it would be of no use.
"Boss, what do we do now..."
A deputy became a bit anxious.
At this moment, he truly realized the severity of the situation. If they don’t seize the chance tonight to catch him red-handed, it will be extremely tough to catch Lie She in the future.
The biggest drug lord in the Provincial City might completely clean up his act.
If Lie She’s plan succeeds tonight, it would become a major headache...
"Gather all the brothers! Block the tunnel!"
Li Yan furrowed his brow and arranged the first task, debating whether to cooperate with the police.
One must know that the situation has become quite tricky, and nothing can go wrong.
"No, we can’t..."
Tie Ma’s heart tightened, and he quickly said, "The person dealing with Lie She is the notorious drug lord Qi Tianyi. He’s from the prominent Qi Family, treacherous as ever. Every time, he uses the family’s Death Soldiers to make the exchanges. If anything goes wrong, they’ll blow up the tunnel as if their lives depend on it, and by then, it will all be over..."
Tie Ma wasn’t being kind; he was concerned for his own safety.
He knew Li Yan and his team were unfamiliar with the tunnel’s layout, so they were sure to send him to lead the way.
If Qi Tianyi blew up the tunnel, Tie Ma would be crushed and buried there, unable to turn over, ever again...
"Blow up the tunnel!"
The deputy gritted his teeth, realizing these drug lords would stop at nothing.
They would even dare blow up a tunnel! The cross-mountain project is one of Longxing Country’s key projects.
The human and financial resources invested are immense.
Once the tunnel is open, it’s the culmination of five years of labor by countless people in mere minutes...
Yet, for the sake of profit, they would destroy it just like that...
As a patriotic individual concerned about Longxing Country, the deputy felt bitterly disappointed!
