Volume 2 High School - The White Robe Fluttering Years Chapter 7

  Aizi Qing called Zhou Yuan to remind him to pay attention to the old K in the East District H bar, not because she was particularly worried about Tang Feng, but because she felt that any information related to the East District might open up a new situation for her now. It's unclear whether it's due to the butterfly effect of rebirth, but after Hei Hu Bang changed its name to Qing She, they didn't encounter the same kind of crisis as in their previous life at this time. It seems that Aizi Qing's move to subdue Hei Hu Bang and rename it Qing She has made some people with ulterior motives unable to see through her intentions, so they dare not act rashly for the time being.

  Three days later, Zhou Yuan replied that Lao K had gone into hiding, seemingly because someone was after him. According to Zhou Yuan, Lao K was a notorious slippery fish in the East District, very cunning! However, since he was still within Yang City's borders and the Qingshe Society's influence had greatly increased, it shouldn't be a problem to catch one or two people on their own turf. Therefore, Ai Ziqing ordered that Lao K be caught without drawing any attention, and interrogated before Tang Feng's contact received any news, to find out who had instructed him recently and what he was planning to do! After all, Ai Ziqing couldn't quite grasp Tang Feng's identity or who he had spoken to on the phone that day. To avoid some unnecessary trouble, it seemed more prudent to detain Lao K for questioning first.

  It only took two days for Zhou Yuan's phone to come again, reporting that he had just found Old K and had secretly arrested him, asking if Zi Qing wanted to go over.

  In the pitch-black basement, the creaking sound caused by the opening of the door was particularly jarring. The old K, who was tied to the ground, quickly lifted his head and shouted: "You'd better let me go quickly! Who are you people? Do you know who I am? Are you all tired of living?"

  "Heh heh." A low, muffled laugh sounded, and it was clear that the person's voice had been intentionally lowered to make it impossible to tell whether they were male or female, young or old.

  The door opened, but no light appeared, and the room was as dark as before. Lao Hei was a bit impatient. This afternoon, he was hiding in the suburbs when suddenly a group of people came out of nowhere and tied him up, then blindfolded him and brought him here. After the blindfold was removed, all he saw was darkness. Until now, no one had said a word to him, which made him very uneasy. So when the door opened again, he could only use loud shouting to cover up his inner unease.

  "Do you know why I caught you?" Still couldn't hear the person's original voice, but as the newcomer spoke, someone suddenly shone a strong light into Old K's eyes, forcing him to close them. After slowly opening his eyes again, except for the strong light shining towards him, the opposite side was still pitch black, and he couldn't see how many people were in the room.

  Lao Hei felt humiliated and cursed loudly, "You with the surname Tang! You'd better let me go, or else they won't let you off!"

  "Who are they?" A low, muffled voice sounded again. Old K dodged the strong light, trying to get a clear look at the people on the other side, but the strong light was shining directly into his eyes, making it even harder to see anything.

  "Damn it! What exactly do you want!" Lao Hei was somewhat panicked, but his tone remained tough.

  "Get moving! I only ask once!" Ai Zi Qing said in a low voice.

  The bright light went out, and in the pitch-black room, only the muffled screams and the sound of steel pipes hitting the body could be heard. Apart from this, there was no other sound. Old K suddenly realized that his life was now in someone else's hands, and they could take it away at any time! And now, the person holding him could only be Tang's man seeking revenge, because he couldn't think of anyone else who would intervene and grab him at this moment.

  "Stop! Stop! Don't hit anymore! I...I'm talking! Cough, cough..." Old K howled with a trembling voice.

  "Uh-huh." Aizawa's intentionally lowered voice rang out again, and those thugs immediately stopped and retreated to either side.

  The room fell silent again, and the strong light was once again directed at Old K's eyes, so that Ai Zi Qing could clearly see his every expression, and intimidate his heart, playing a psychological warfare role.

  "It's Shi Lao Da! It's Shi Lao Da! Whatever you do, don't say I said it! Please, I'm begging you, or else Shi Lao Da won't let me off! I'm just a small fry, can't do anything, so please spare me..." Old K was covered in blood, speaking incoherently, his voice trembling with a hint of tears.

  "Shi Ke? The leader of the East District Axe Gang." Zhou Yuan whispered in Ai Ziying's ear, and due to their extremely close proximity, he could even smell the sweet fragrance of osmanthus on her body. For a moment, Zhou Yuan was dazed, but immediately regained his composure and took a step back. Although he had felt that Ai Ziying was calm and composed from their first encounter, up until now, he could still clearly sense her growth, and her future would be boundless. He didn't dare to have any wild ideas, perhaps it was just pure admiration, appreciation, and a hint of awe. After all, not everyone at this age could achieve what Ai Ziying had accomplished, especially since she was a woman!

  "Why is Shi Ke looking for trouble with Tang Feng?" Ai Zi Qing asked coldly.

  "I, I don't know." Old K's eyes dodged slightly under the strong light.

  "I remember I said, I don't like repeating myself." Zi Qing smiled lightly.

  "I know, but all I know is that someone asked Old Stone to take action and capture Tang Feng. Old Stone ordered me that if it's really not possible, then get rid of him." Lao K hastily said.

  "Who invited Shi Ke?"

  "I really don't know! I just take the money and do things, I don't know anything else! Really!" Old K said hastily.

  Ziying nodded thoughtfully after listening, and Zhou Yuan leaned over to whisper "Do you want to get rid of him?" The voice was low, but it reverberated in the dark underground room, striking a chord in Old K's heart. Unbeknownst to them, this sentence also made Ai Ziying's nerves tense up instantly.

  "Spare me! Don't kill me, I still have information. If you let me go, I'll tell you everything I know!" Old K had completely lost his previous toughness and was now showing a cowardly and fearful attitude, which, although understandable, made everyone present feel disgusted and contemptuous.

  "Oh? What else do you know?" Ai Zi Qing asked with interest.

  "Old Shi, no, Shi Kei is going to meet those people tomorrow and wants me to go with him to explain the situation that day. 8 o'clock tonight, Fengyuan B2 building, Shi Kei's girlfriend's villa. That's all I know, I'm just a small fry! And I don't even know who you are, so please let me go for the sake of this information."

  Ai Zi Qing turned around and walked out of the room, her face pale as she faced away from Zhou Yuan and the others. After all, it was her first time experiencing this kind of scene, and she had been trying very hard to remain calm and composed, but when she heard the sound of steel pipes hitting human flesh, her heart still tightened involuntarily. However, she knew that these were necessary experiences, and since she had already chosen this path, not just for herself, but also for those hundreds of brothers who regarded her as their leader...

  "Director, what to do?" Zhou Yuan followed him out. At this time, Ai Ziying's face had already recovered. Ziying heard the words and frowned, feeling that Old K was indeed guilty but not punishable by death. However, he was indeed a social scourge. If she thought handing him over to the police would be enough to eliminate the harm, it would be simply naive. Sometimes, only evil can cure evil! Moreover, he still knew so many things, and at least for now, it was impossible to let him out to spread the news.

  Jian Zi Qing hesitated, and Zhou Yuan could understand her emotions at this time. After all, no matter how mature and stable one's thoughts are, their age and experience are still there. At this age, she had already achieved so much that even he couldn't help but sigh in admiration. Zhou Yuan pursed his lips, his eyes fixed on the ground, and said softly, "Old K is a homosexual and an AIDS patient. He often hangs out around H bars looking for prey, and has succeeded several times. However, his victims are all miserable and unable to speak out, so things always end with nothing happening. Usually, he also makes a living by doing some despicable things. Keeping him here would be of no benefit to us, and besides, he's cunning. Who knows if he's already discovered our identities through some clues? I think..."

  "I'll do as you say." Aizi Qing's face turned pale, and she nodded slightly before quickening her pace to walk away.

  Zhou Yuan stood still, staring at Ai Zi Qing's slender back for a long, long time...

  Zhou Yuan gazed at Ai Zi Qing's back for a long time, then sighed and said "Fresh flowers, votes, diamonds, collections. Please give her more support!"
