823: 823 Chapter New Events 823: 823 Chapter New Events They waited for two days and got two days of rest before soone finally arrived.
The leader of the Fat Tiger Gang greeted the newcors who indicated they could accept the task.
The guests were from another city’s gang called Haiyan Gang.
Their business was to clandestinely transport goods in and out, perfectly fitting Gu Fan’s needs.
The Haiyan Gang used legitimate channels for their transportation and carried officially docunted goods.
They had a large fleet of vehicles, which they used as a cover for their covert activities.
These were extraordinary tis, and the highways leading into and out of the city were under strict surveillance.
All trucks were subject to inspection.
After inspecting the items Gu Fan and his group wanted to transport, which were a batch of incomprehensible instrunts, the Haiyan Gang decided to disguise them as dical equipnt.
By mixing the cargo with real dical devices and adding so approval docunts, they could safely get the goods out of the city, though the fee would be high.
When the Haiyan Gang nad their price, Gu Fan was staggered—*an entire billion*, they were outright highway robbery, asking for the moon!
However, at the mont, the Haiyan Gang was the only one who could help Gu Fan.
And judging from the situation with the Fat Tiger Gang, this transportation task entailed risks.
Yet, the Haiyan Gang was reliable.
They took money to get the job done and would not back down.
After considering the special period and unknown dangers that might be encountered along the way, Gu Fan realized that it was indeed necessary to offer a risk fee, since they were taking such significant risks to help him.
Su Hui reminded him, “Gu Fan, we really can’t afford a billion yuan.
How about ten million yuan instead?”
“Deal!” the Haiyan Gang agreed on the spot, leaving Su Hui and Gu Fan taken aback by such arbitrary bargaining.
However, ten million yuan was not a small figure, and if Gu Fan continued to ask Du Jun for money, it would feel a bit too much.
Gu Fan didn’t know many rich people, but one ca to mind – Luo Jingrong.
So, Gu Fan shalessly called Luo Jingrong.
After exchanging pleasantries and asking about Luo’s well-being, he broached the subject.
As expected, Luo Jingrong rejected him.
It was a joke—he worked hard for his money, why should he just give Gu Fan ten million yuan?
Gu Fan pleaded earnestly, but Luo Jingrong was unmoved.
Desperate, Gu Fan played a card by offering Luo Jingrong a benefit: David would develop a product whose patent would be freely given to Luo Jingrong, allowing him a significant profit.
David had no objections to this, as it was a necessary compromise.
Seeing how hard Gu Fan was working, David also wanted to contribute what he could.
Moreover, there were so many valuable things in the underground research base that picking any one of them could be a massive money-maker, if only David had the business acun to profit from them.
After much deliberation, Luo Jingrong decided to trust Gu Fan and agreed to transfer the money, but it would take so ti.
Good, the money situation was settled, and everyone had co to an agreent.
Gu Fan hoped that the Haiyan Gang would take imdiate action, but they said they needed to prepare a few things, including so trucks and dical devices.
This would also require ti, and in the anti, Gu Fan’s money should be transferred.
Before leaving, the leader of Haiyan Gang sternly warned them that if everything on their end was ready and Gu Fan’s paynt hadn’t co through, there would be consequences for him to pay.
Feeling a chill in his heart, Gu Fan was worried—not only because he didn’t want to turn a plea for help into trouble but also because offending the Haiyan Gang and gaining another enemy was the least of his concerns.
The worst part was finding soone else who could really help.
So, Gu Fan was banking on so hocus pocus, hoping Luo Jingrong wouldn’t let him down, or else things would really get difficult.
Su Hui was worried, “Gu Fan, even if Luo Jingrong keeps his promise and transfers the money to you, and the Haiyan Gang does everything within their power, I still have this uneasy feeling.
Our enemies won’t let us go that easily.”
“I know,” admitted Gu Fan, visibly worried, “they’ll conduct a search, eventually finding us.
So, we need to be fast.” Their current hideout was only temporarily safe, but it wouldn’t be difficult to locate them—it was just a matter of ti.
Su Hui turned on the TV to check the news and noticed that the city was still troubled with conflicts affecting public safety.
Then they saw another news story: the bodies of gang mbers from nurous gangs were found in an alley, all undamaged by bullets or external injury, and with their internal organs intact.
However, all of their blood was drained, and there were animal bite marks on their necks.
This news surprised everyone because where would wild animals co from in the city?
And gang mbers were usually ard, so why would they fear animals?
Su Hui watched scenes from the location broadcast on the TV and noticed bullet holes in the walls, indicating a battle.
Why then had all these gang mbers t with such a fate?
Who were they fighting against?
Su Hui and Gu Fan’s first thought was these people must have provoked Qian Ye, which led them to shoot at him, only to realize that bullets were ineffective.
But then Su Hui thought that wasn’t right unless Qian Ye had cast a spell to summon beasts.
Otherwise, it made no sense for there to be animal bites on the victims’ necks or why their blood was drained.
The boss of the Fat Tiger Gang claid ignorance, saying that despite his many years in the city, he had never heard of such attacks by wild animals.
The thought was unthinkable.
Gu Fan’s brows furrowed as he watched the news with a chilling sense of dread.
If the Black Night Gang were now under Qian Ye’s command and tracking Gu Fan, intent on killing David and disrupting the “space-ti door,” could the unidentified creature attacking the Black Night Gang follow them to find Gu Fan?
“It looks like we need to leave here as soon as possible.” Gu Fan felt uneasy, and everyone was weighed down with worry.
Seeing how tense Gu Fan was, Su Hui consoled him, “It’s okay, don’t overthink it.
Perhaps it’s just Qian Ye’s way of dealing with traitors, nothing more.”
Gu Fan nodded, hoping he was just overthinking the situation.
But the next day, a new TV report covered an incident where everyone living in an apartnt building was killed overnight.
All the victims had animal bites on their necks, their blood completely drained.
Even though the authorities were investigating and had sealed off the area, prohibiting dia coverage, so freelance reporters still managed to post about it online, and the news spread rapidly.
“My God, what on earth is happening?” Gu Fan and Su Hui were sure this ti that it wasn’t Qian Ye’s handiwork, but rather so other mysterious threat.
