With many years of experience, Tan Yan noticed that this place was not ordinary as soon as he entered the billiard hall.
The customers in the billiard hall seemed to be playing, but their eyes were very vigilant, seeing a stranger like Tan Yan, their relaxed expressions suddenly became tense, two burly men with dragon tattoos on their arms came over with cigarettes in their mouths: “Come for what?”
Tan Yan listened carefully, and the faint voice made him realize that this was an underground casino, in the basement of the billiard hall, a group of gamblers were gambling.
Where there is light, there is darkness, and even in a metropolis like this, there are still places where light doesn’t reach.
Tan Yan secretly sighed in his heart, also not polite, and said directly: “I’m looking for someone.”
“Oh?” One of the burly men spit out a smoke ring on Tan Yan’s face, and smiled maliciously: “Who are you looking for? We don’t have the person you want here.”
Tan Yan recalled the deep fingerprints in front of the door, Zhang Hua must have struggled fiercely in front of the door and resisted crazily, but he was still brought in. These people must know the clues!
He kicked the man in the stomach, as described in the novel, and sent him flying, hitting the wall heavily.
“I hate it when people smoke in front of me.” Tan Yan said lightly.
“Yo, not a good stubble,” The other man saw Tan Yan’s fighting power but was not afraid at all, “It’s a tough idea, but you alone can still…”
Before he finished speaking, Tan Yan grabbed the neck and snatched the cigarette.
Tan Yan pressed the burly man on the billiard table with one palm, and pointed the cigarette into his eyes: “I’m here to find someone.”
The customers who were playing put down their billiard cues one by one, took out iron bars and other weapons from somewhere, and slowly gathered around Tan Yan.
There are more than twenty people in the billiard hall, all of them are tall and strong, and Tan Yan, who is surrounded in the middle, looks thin and small.
“Damn it! #%¥@%¥…” The man who was pinned to the billiard table cursed loudly, and his words were unpleasant to the ears.
With sharp eyes and quick hands, Tan Yan directly pressed the burning cigarette on the burly man’s tongue: “If you don’t want to talk, don’t talk.”
“Ah!!!” The man whose tongue was scalded screamed like a pig being butchered, Tan Yan grabbed his head and slammed it on the billiard table, he passed out and didn’t dare to scream anymore.
“Two days ago, it should be early morning 2 o’clock to morning eight-nine o’clock, someone came to your place, there should be more than one. One of them had grabbed the door frame deeply and left fingerprints.” Tan Yan said unhurriedly in the wall of people, “Who was on duty that night, do you still remember?”
He is usually gentle and polite, takes good care of the members of the supernatural team, and is quite tolerant, looks like a harmless big brother.
But the Tan Yan now, in front of this group of underground gambling house personnel who may have helped kidnap Zhang Hua, reveals his side that is usually unknown.
Decisive, ruthless, dangerous and charming.
Liang Xian, who was listening on the other side of the monitoring device, felt a wave of torrent spread all over his body, as if some switch had been turned on by Tan Yan.
“Why so impulsive!” The little soldier Gu Ming was so angry that he hit the wall, “There are so many people on the other side, and there may be the mastermind of this missing case, perhaps the other-worldly superpower, is he going to fight everyone by himself?”
“Minister Yu has already dispatched the armed police,” Ah San said, “I’m sure we can wipe out this stronghold.”
“Tan Yan will be fine,” Liang Xian’s heart was boiling with enthusiasm, wishing that he could act together with Tan Yan, “I had a feeling that he would come back with some information.”
“I feel the same way,” Cui Heyu rarely matches with Liang Xian, “You don’t know how it feels to follow him, it’s a kind of bravery that can’t be beaten.”
“No matter how harsh the environment is and how difficult the task is, as long as he is there, there is nothing to be afraid of.” Qin Li pressed his heart and said softly.
It is this kind of firmness that allows them to persevere in countless terrible worlds.
There was a sound of beating from the monitor, Tan Yan knocked everyone down with three punches and two kicks.
He held an iron rod that had been bent by his own kick, pressed it on a person’s head, stepped on his chest, and said coldly: “You’re the leader, right? You should have heard my question clearly, where is the person?”
“I, I don’t know…” The man was so scared that he wet his pants, this is still a human being? One person, with his bare hands, knocked down more than twenty men who were taller and stronger than him, and many of the people guarding outside the casino were trained bodyguards, but they couldn’t even stop him.
The weapon in their hand was bent or crushed by Tan Yan, the only pistol was snatched by Tan Yan before he could shoot, he squeezed it in his hand in front of everyone, rubbed it hard twice, and the gun turned into a ball of iron lumps.
“March 10, early morning 1 o’clock to morning 9 o’clock, who is on shift? I see there are surveillance cameras here, show me the surveillance.” There was no emotion in Tan Yan’s eyes, one foot slowly stepped on the leader’s finger, “If you dare to say that you don’t know, you don’t need this hand anymore.”
He wasn’t joking, those eyes were serious!
“Extorting a confession by torture is illegal!” Gu Ming said in agitation, “He’s going to write an inspection letter like this!”
“What torture to extract a confession,” Liang Xian frowned, “Tan Yan went to the bandit’s den alone, after declaring his intention, he was resisted by criminals and had no choice but to defend himself. As for what kind of hand he doesn’t need, let’s wait until the hand is really useless, isn’t it okay to bluff?”
Gu Ming: “…”
After Liang Xian said that, he dragged Qiu Qizheng: “Can Qin Li’s self-healing ability and your sharing ability heal that man’s hand? No evidence is no proof!”
Qiu Qizheng: “…”
“He has no powers, it’s a bit difficult.”
Liang Xian: “Oh, then I’ll think of another way.”
Gu Ming: “…”
Where is Officer Xu? Come back quickly, he can’t control this group of supernatural beings at all!
The leader was more timid than the supernatural team imagined, before Tan Yan’s foot could use force, he hurriedly said: “I’ll talk, I’ll talk, the boss brought six people back that day, and said that they might be our people in the future, one of them grabbed the door frame and didn’t let go, we wanted to drag him, the boss said no, and sure enough, he let go after a while.”
Tan Yan asked again: “Two people died, how did they die?”
“I really don’t know about this!” The leader’s voice is quite frightened, “Among the six people, one became obedient very quickly, and the boss let him follow him. Later, two more followed, I don’t know where the boss arranged for them to go. The remaining three looked different from ordinary people at first glance, the boss let us watch them carefully, the three planned to escape every day, and once they ran away, the first one who obeyed…”
“Zhao Tianming.” Tan Yan’s voice became colder.
“Right, right, the boss called him Xiao Zhao, he was obviously an ordinary person, but he was able to capture two soldiers back. After being caught, the boss didn’t know how to do it, and the two of them died. The boss asked us to put the corpse in a cloth bag and throw it on the road at night…”
“What about the rest?”
“The rest is insane! He doesn’t eat, drink, or talk, and bumps his head against the wall every day, if the boss says a few words to him, he will be obedient for a few minutes, and then go crazy again after a while, the boss told us to tie him up and throw him underground, saying that he would be fine after a few days in a small dark room, and that he would not die for a while, so don’t worry about him.”
The leader doesn’t know what’s going on, he can be regarded as someone who has seen the world, he has been to the police station several times, no matter how the police ask, he will not betray the boss, but Tan Yan gave him such a light look, and he said all the words like pouring beans.
“Who’s your boss?”
“Boss…” The leader looks to the left, trying to find a way.
Tan Yan picked him up and dragged him into the bathroom, pressed his head into the water, held it for a while, then grabbed him and said: “Speak.”
The voice has no emotion, not even anger, like a cold robot.
The little leader’s body was cold, his will completely collapse under Tan Yan’s aura, and he said in a panic: “The boss is called Shen Biao, on the surface, he is the boss of a small entertainment company, but in fact his hands are quite black. This… big brother, can you take me to the police station later? I said so much today, the boss will kill me.”
Tan Yan completely ignored him: “Last question, where are the people you tied up?”
“In, in the basement, there are several cabins in the casino, where gamblers who are in debt are locked up.”
“Take me there!”
The little leader’s legs were so weak that he could only be dragged by Tan Yan, he guided Tan Yan to a secret door, it appeared to be a wall, but it could actually be opened, behind it was a staircase, and going down was the casino.
The little leader looked for the switch tremblingly, but saw Tan Yan kicking hard on the secret door, not only the door flew out, but the wall was also taken away.
Is this still a human being? Can still be human?
The more than twenty thugs who were knocked to the ground just now closed their eyes tightly, no matter whether they were dizzy or not, they were trying to pretend to be dead, for fear that they would be spotted by Tan Yan and end up like the little leader.
Tan Yan dragged the little leader downstairs step by step, the little leader knocked his leg step by step on the steps. The pain made him grimace, but he didn’t dare to cry out.
It took three flights of steps to arrive at the underground casino, since no one went to report the news, and the sound insulation here was good, the people in the casino were still gambling in full swing, the red-eyed gamblers looked crazy, and there were some scantily clad women by their side.
Tan Yan kicked open the door and threw the little leader on the gaming table, scaring the gamblers to scream. When the casino bodyguards saw that it was their own leader, they rushed forward to subdue Tan Yan, but of course, they were all beaten down.
“Squat down, hold your head.” Tan Yan said to the gamblers.
The gamblers obediently squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands, and one of them squatted behind Tan Yan, put some money in his arms and shuffled towards the door bit by bit.
Tan Yan seemed to have eyes on his back, he put his feet under the mop pole, and with a flick of his toes, the mop flew up, Tan Yan grabbed the mop and threw it towards the door without looking at it, the fragile end of the mop actually plunged deep into the ground, this is a concrete floor!
The mop head happened to block the door, Tan Yan glanced at the gambler trying to escape from the corner of his eye. The gambler trembled from Tan Yan’s glance, and squatted down crying with his head in his arms.
At this point, no one in the entire casino dared to move.
Tan Yan walked over again and picked up the small leader who was half dead at the gambling table: “Where are the people locked up?”
The little leader: “…”
Still, still won’t let me go?
He was thrown casually just now, and he didn’t know how many bones were broken, so painful that he wanted to cry. But now he can only point out the direction for Tan Yan with difficulty, the casino has a back door, which is convenient for people to escape the police when they are checking people. Behind the door is a dark corridor, the room where the people are locked up is in the corridor, and the iron door is chained to the person.
Tan Yan dropped the little leader, glanced at everyone and said: “137 people, I remember your faces and positions, I will come out later, if anyone runs away or moves from their positions…”
He didn’t say anything, but his eyes said it all.
Tan Yan pushed open the back door, and as soon as he opened the door, he heard the sound of ‘bang’, ‘bang’, ‘bang’ coming from the corridor.
He followed the sound and found several small houses, no windows, only a large iron door, with thick iron chains wrapped around it.
The banging sound was coming from the middle door, this time, instead of kicking the door, Tan Yan reached out and grabbed both ends of the door and yanked it hard, pulling the door off the frame.
The room is very small, with no light, and can only accommodate one person kneeling and sitting in it. Tan Yan pulled the door down, and the person inside fell directly into his arms.
Tan Yan let the man off, held him in his arms, and wiped him lightly with his hand, blood was all over his body and face.
“Zhang Hua…” Different from the cold-blooded one just now, Tan Yan’s voice at this time is gentle and a little distressed.
“Heh… heh…” Zhang Hua made a few sounds of unknown meaning in his throat.
“It’s me, Tan Yan.” Tan Yan held his head in his arms, “I’ll take you back to the base.”
“Wu… wu…”
Zhang Hua cried, blood and tears stained Tan Yan’s clothes.
Although his voice was vague, Tan Yan still listened to him.
Zhang Hua said, I’m sorry, the task was not completed, the person under surveillance escaped, and two soldiers died.
“I know.” Tan Yan rubbed Zhang Hua’s head, “Don’t blame yourself, you’ve done a good job.”
“Im… sho… ree… Im… sho… ree…”
Zhang Hua kept saying ‘I’m sorry’, Tan Yan carried him on his back and walked back down the corridor.
“No need to be sorry, it’s not your fault.” Tan Yan said comfortingly while walking, “It’s my fault.”
“I wasn’t vigilant enough, and I didn’t realize that there were consciousnesses from other worlds entering our world, and possibly following us back.” Tan Yan walked step by step, “Don’t worry, we’re already prepared and nothing like this will happen again.”
Walking into the casino, seeing that none of the gamblers dared to leave, Tan Yan pointed at these people: “Thank you for leaving clues along the way, allowing me to find the opponent’s stronghold. Knowing the identity of the mastermind or accomplice, then the operation will have a target.”
Zhang Hua leaned his head on Tan Yan’s shoulder and tried hard to say: “Be, be careful.”
There is a scorched mark on his neck, which was made by a fire-type supernatural being. His throat is burned, he can’t speak normally for the time being, and can only make a little sound.
“It’s okay, don’t be afraid.” Tan Yan said.
He picked up the little leader again and dragged him down the stairs to the billiard hall.
“Call your boss.” Tan Yan said to the little leader.
The little leader has tears all over his face, just staring at him for abuse, just him alone!
With difficulty, he crawled to the chair where the clothes were piled up, pulled out his own clothes, found the cell phone in his pocket, and called Shen Biao tremblingly.
As soon as the call was connected, Tan Yan snatched the phone, and the person on the other side heard the change of breathing, and said with a chuckle: “Supernatural being? Found it quite fast.”
“Who are you?” Tan Yan asked.
“Superior.” ‘Shen Biao’ replied, “Your supernatural team or the country should come to me as much as possible, before the official meeting, there will be more people under my command, and all of you supernatural beings will be mine by then.”
“Fifth-level zombies can control people’s consciousness, but supernatural beings can resist. You can even control supernatural beings like Zhang Hua, and your level is stronger than fifth-level zombies.” Tan Yan used the zombie world to test.
“What does a fifth-level zombie amount to?” ‘Shen Biao’ sneered, “It’s just an energy-absorbing prop, the fifth-level zombie is at best a larger capacity.
Sure enough, they followed from the zombie world!
“How did you get to our world?” Tan Yan asked again.
“The organization of your world doesn’t even understand such a basic thing? As long as there are coordinates, the superior can enter any world at will. The little brother who tried to defy me, I left the coordinates on him. Are you very happy thinking that he didn’t become a zombie, desperately saved such a person, but brought me to this world, exchanged the whole world for one person’s life, how does it feel?” ‘Shen Biao’ laughed wildly on the other side.
“Everyone’s life is extremely precious, as long as there is hope, I will not give up on anyone. And there’s nothing you can do to destroy our world, I won’t let you.” Tan Yan firmly said.
The author has something to say:
Supernatural team: Let’s get it straight, our whole team is Tan boaster!
