His interrogation method was extremely direct, with the dark barrel of the gun pressed right against the forehead, not a single unnecessary word.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

After two consecutive gunshots, the spirits of the two surviving criminals completely collapsed, unable to hold out any longer.

"We... we come from Japan..."

Having gotten the answers he wanted, Qi Yun uttered "Bury them," and walked out.

...

At eleven in the evening, after Brother Quan and his team dealt with the other group, they returned to the hospital.

In the office, Qi Yun’s gaze swept across everyone’s faces one by one, and he spoke gravely: "Everyone knows about the situation now. I must get revenge for this. Share your thoughts."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Wei was ready to speak but was interrupted by An Zai: "Boss, I’ll go! I’ll make sure to kill that bastard!"

Niu Da also responded in a deep voice: "I’ll go too! They must pay with blood!"

Brother Quan furrowed his brows, not as impulsive as the others, and said sternly: "From what I know, there should be strong security forces around the emperor."

"Like the Hattori ninja we encountered before, he isn’t the top ninja in Japan. The truly powerful ones are those kept by the Imperial Family."

"Everyone should not be complacent."

...

Having heard Brother Quan’s warning, everyone calmed down, their faces growing more serious.

Chen Wei couldn’t retreat completely last time, indicating those ninjas weren’t weak.

Seeing that no one was speaking, Brother Quan turned to Qi Yun: "Boss, what kind of outcome do you want?"

Qi Yun squinted his eyes and coldly uttered a few words: "Blood for blood."

Brother Quan nodded, paused for two seconds, and asked seriously: "The consequences of this will be very serious, have you considered it thoroughly?"

Although the Japanese emperor today is only a symbolic figure with no real power, he still holds a very high status in the heart of Japanese citizens.

If he were killed, it would definitely be earth-shattering news.

If their identities were leaked, it would definitely cause a diplomatic uproar.

This move was indeed a bit crazy.

However, Qi Yun seemed to have made up his mind already, saying without hesitation: "Don’t worry about the consequences, you just need to complete the mission and return safely."

Seeing the confidence in Qi Yun’s demeanor, Brother Quan asked no more questions.

Chen Wei, who had been silent, declared directly: "I’ll lead the team! Who’s willing to go with me!"

"I’ll go!" Niu Da immediately responded.

"I’ll go!"

"I’ll go too!"

Qi Yun’s past generosity towards them was now rewarded directly.

Despite knowing the danger of this mission, they were still willing to risk their lives for him!

"Boss, let me go too." Xiao Wu, standing in the corner, was equally eager to go.

His strength was well-known, having almost killed the strongest Hattori ninja in Capital City before.

Without waiting for Qi Yun to speak, Brother Quan immediately denied the proposal: "You better stay and protect the boss. I’ll lead the team."

Xiao Wu opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately nodded.

Qi Yun looked at each one of them, took a deep breath and humbly bowed.

"Thank you, everyone." Qi Yun said.

Everyone was taken aback. An Zai reacted first, quickly stepping forward to support Qi Yun: "Boss, what are you doing!"

"Everyone knows how you’ve treated us. Even if it costs our lives, we have to get revenge for you this time!"

Da Pao nodded in agreement: "Exactly, if it weren’t for Boss taking us in, we’d still be risking our lives for meager earnings not enough to buy a burial plot. Even if I die this time, it’s worth it."

Looking at his brothers before him, Qi Yun’s throat couldn’t help but tighten, swallowing the words that reached the tip of his tongue.

"Alright, I won’t say more. Tomorrow, Zhong Rui will transfer twenty million to each of your accounts as the reward for this mission."

"If anyone is injured, I’ll take care of them for the rest of their life!"

"If...if anyone doesn’t come back, I’ll take care of their parents and children!"

As soon as he said this, complex emotions appeared on everyone’s faces.

In their line of work, they face all sorts of dangers every day, with their lives hanging on the line.

The reason they risk their lives is simply for some form of security in later life, for their wives and children to be free from worry.

Qi Yun’s promise gave them complete reassurance, so even if they didn’t come back, there was nothing to worry about.

"Alright, let’s not say more. There, I’ll contact others to cooperate with you."

"One request, I hope everyone returns safely!"

...

The next day, Duan Pingyu finally woke up.

To protect Nuannuan, he took two shots in the back, his injuries more severe than Zhao Qing’s, and he almost couldn’t make it off the operating table yesterday.

Luckily, the Hundred Treasure Pill Qi Yun brought stopped the internal bleeding successfully, or it would have been really dangerous.

"Boss, I’m sorry, I didn’t protect them well..." Duan Pingyu’s face was still pale, he struggled to sit up when he saw Qi Yun entering.

Qi Yun quickly stepped forward to hold him down on the bed: "Don’t move, it’s good that you’re awake."

"It’s not your fault, just rest and recover."

Duan Pingyu pursed his lips, still uneasy: "How are they...how are they..."

Qi Yun forced a smile, comforting him: "They’re all fine, don’t think too much."

With Qi Yun’s assurance, Duan Pingyu finally relaxed a bit, a weak smile appearing on his pale face.

Leaving the ward, Qi Yun coincidentally saw Brother Peng and his wife arriving hurriedly, holding two thermos buckets.

"Qi Yun! How’s the girl!?" As soon as they met, Song Xiaojing anxiously grabbed him, asking.

Hearing about Nuannuan’s accident, she didn’t sleep all night, but with three kids at home to care for, she couldn’t leave until her family came over to help. She brewed chicken soup and came with Brother Peng to the hospital.

"Don’t worry, sis-in-law, Nuannuan is out of danger now, there’s no major issue."

Just as he finished speaking, the sound of footsteps echoed from the elevator.

Liu Meng and his wife, Wei Yong and his wife, and Old Feng all arrived.

Seeing these people, Qi Yun felt a warmth in his heart.

With his career climbing steadily, the gap between them unknowingly widened, and they communicated less.

But hearing about his situation, they still came immediately to provide all possible help.

With the ladies helping to care for things, Qi Yun could comfortably handle other matters.

...

Leaving the hospital, Qi Yun called Qin Minghui to ask him to calm the online public opinion.

Hearing this, Qin Minghui finally relaxed his tense nerves, silently grateful that Qi Yun didn’t make a big mess.

Though the situation had caused significant impact, it was still controllable, and by handling it discreetly, public opinion would gradually calm down.

After arranging this, Qi Yun immediately contacted Harris to communicate the situation.

Hearing that Qi Yun’s wife and child were attacked, Harris immediately reacted with immense anger: "Those damn bastards! They dare to touch my friends and family!"

"Qi! What do you need me to do!"

Qi Yun didn’t answer the question directly, instead saying: "I’m now fairly certain that this incident, and the attack you experienced last time, are due to the Eight-footed Jade Hook incident being exposed."

"Have you found any clues on your end?"

After a few seconds of silence, Harris replied with a grave tone: "Besides you and me, only the intermediary who arranged the buyer for me knows about this."

"But at that time, I didn’t tell him what I’m trading."

"What about the buyer? Why are you sure it’s not from their side?" Qi Yun asked further.

"The buyer..." Harris pondered slightly, "Now that things have reached this stage, I will no longer hide it from you."

"The buyer is very influential in the United States; he is the owner of Amazon!"
