District 9

Inside Warehouse No. 57.

The young man was lying on the concrete floor covered in blood, his arms had been chewed to pieces by four big dogs, and only half of his life was left after being tortured by the "interrogators".

"You haven't said it yet, have you?!" Kim Tae-soo's followers were stunned. He had been in this business for so long and had never seen a man with such hard bones.

"You are all... all idiots...!" The young man fell in a pool of blood, his body twitching convulsively: "I... don't even know what you mean by asking."

Beside the table, Kim Tae-soo stood up suddenly, put his hands behind his back and cursed: "I have been in the industry for so long and I have never encountered a mouth that cannot be pried open. Continue to torture me!"

The young man yelled with desperate eyes: "What on earth do you want to do?! Do you need to pry my mouth? I opened it by myself when I entered the door. Can't you understand? I don't understand what you are asking at all...!"

"You are so tough." Kim Tae-soo's follower waved his hands and yelled: "Put him up!"

"My qnm, you stupid b-stick, are you all the same?! If I have to be tough, I'll bite off the head of the first one who pretends to be a poop for you!" The young man was so anxious that he staggered and was about to rush up.

Beside the table, a middle-aged man in No. 57 stood up, suddenly frowned and said, "Old Jin, something is wrong."

Kim Tae-soo turned around: "What's wrong?"

"Why do I feel like he didn't lie?" The middle-aged man came later. He had been listening just now, but now he stood up and said proactively: "His willpower does not look like someone engaged in intelligence work."

Kim Tae-soo hesitated for a while: "Is it possible?"

The middle-aged man walked up to Kim Tae-soo and whispered in Korean: "People at the bottom may receive different orders."

Kim Tae-soo blinked, waved his hands and shouted: "Disperse first."

The interrogators dispersed to both sides. Kim Tae-soo walked up to the young man, bent down and asked, "When did you come to District 5?"

"I...I won't tell you, I came to District 5 more than a month ago."

"Did the military conflict on the northwest line begin at that time?" Kim Tae-soo asked again.

"It's started. I've been fighting for nearly a week." The young man nodded slowly.

Kim Tae-soo scratched his nose: "You said you were kidnapping me for ransom, right?"

"yes."

"...You haven't seen me for more than a month, why don't you change your target?" Kim Tae-soo asked with narrowed eyes.

"It's not my business. If Lin Chengdong gives you money and he identifies you, then we'll keep you company." The young man shook his head slowly.

At this moment, Kim Tae-soo didn't know that Lin Chengdong hated the people of Yandao, and he didn't know that the other party knew about his financial resources, so he thought this was very suspicious.

"Before starting work, Lin Chengdong didn't tell you any details or information about you. We really just wanted to make money..." the young man added again.

Jin Taizhu blinked: "Is Lin Chengdong a native of Nanhu?"

"Yes."

"What did he do before?" Kim Tae-soo asked again.

"I heard he was a police officer. He disappeared four or five years ago. I don't know what he did when he came back. It seems that he contacted us not long ago to do this job."

When Kim Tae-soo heard this, he became even more suspicious: "He disappeared for four or five years?"

"Yes, I also heard what Xiaoliang said, but I don't know the details."

"Where does he live in Nanhu? Does he have any family members?"

"I don't know." The young man continued to shake his head: "We just work with him, and we won't ask these useless questions, and he won't say anything."

Jin Taizhu looked at the young man and thought carefully for a minute or two before raising his head and ordering: "Send him to the infirmary and treat his injuries first."

"Okay." The attendant nodded.

Jin Taizhu stood up, turned to the middle-aged man who had just spoken to him and said, "Let's go to the lounge."

…

Five minutes later, in the lounge.

Kim Tae-soo crossed his legs, looked at the middle-aged man and asked, "Do you think what he said is credible?"

"It's hard to judge. It may be an old man who is stalling for time, or he may be a person who knows nothing and is only responsible for doing things." The middle-aged man intervened and replied.

Jin Taizhu touched his chin: "Let people from Nanhu check?"

"Who should check?" the middle-aged man asked with a frown.

Kim Tae-soo thought about it again and again and replied in a low voice: "Let Group 17 check it?"

"This... this can't be done." The middle-aged man looked serious and lowered his voice as he replied: "Group 17 was arranged in Nanhu by the superiors. There have been strict orders not to be used easily."

"There must be big fish in this line." Kim Tae-soo squinted his eyes and replied: "They squatted here for more than a month, but they didn't see me, and then they didn't change their target. The man named Lin Chengdong used to be a police officer. , suddenly disappeared for four years... This rhythm is too much like the work of an insider."

The middle-aged man also fell into thinking.

"Damn, I was almost captured. If we don't quickly dig out these gunmen sent by the three major districts, many people will be in danger." Kim Tae-soo looked solemn: "I entered the Fifth Five-Year Plan more than a month ago. District, think about how long these people have been preparing? They have already wanted to touch us...!"

"But what if we use Group 17 and something goes wrong?!"

"It's okay, I'll take care of it." Kim Tae-soo had already made his decision.

"Okay." The middle-aged man nodded slowly.

After saying this, the two stood up in tacit agreement and left the lounge together.

Five minutes later, Communications Department.

The middle-aged man detached two managers, used the military code code translation, privately contacted people in Nanhu, and left their contact information.

After a while, the phone rang, and Kim Tae-soo picked up the phone: "Hello?"

"Am I the leader of Group 17?"

"Secret orders from the top ask you to investigate a person named Lin Chengdong within Nanhu. His basic information is..." Jin Taizhu stated the situation to the other party in a low voice.

…

In Yi City, in the small company gathering area on the left side of the business district, Lin Chengdong stood in the alley and turned his head to look around.

"Really?" Xiaoliang's voice sounded.

"Follow the plan." Lin Chengdong licked his lips: "Whether we can carry the sack back to Nanhu depends on this."

Ah Wei and others heard the sound and put on their bandit hats again.

…

On the second floor of the small company.

A woman in her thirties poured coffee for the two men and said softly: "Wait a moment, I will contact the boss."

"Okay." The man on the left nodded: "If we get in touch, tell him that if he doesn't want to meet, then we won't talk."

The woman was startled for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "Okay."

After the woman left, another man reminded her softly: "What you just said was a little too much."

"I'm begging him, but respect is mutual. He can also use me, right?" The person next to him picked up the coffee and replied calmly.

While the two were chatting, four masked men suddenly rushed in from the main entrance on the first floor.

"Kang!"

There was a dull gunshot, and Awei was the first to shout: "Everyone bows their heads, stay where you are and don't move!"

"ah!"

Screams echoed through the house.
