After his interrogation, Lorik did not answer.
Zhao Yao shook his head. The Cobra Gang was vicious, brutal and very poor.
He accepted the chest of Euros condescendingly. While Lorik was bleeding and looking at him, he walked to the obese cat.
Matcha was stepping on the obese cat while Zhao Yao asked, “How’s it? How’s the chat with your new friend?”
Matcha put the meat pad of his paw before the obese cat and commanded, “Lick.”
The obese cat retorted, “You are too much orange cat! Don’t think I am scared because you are greater in number. I am not afraid of a duel with you!”
“What?” Matcha fumed and hollered, “What did you call me? Orange cat? Are you blind? I am Jianghai’s Scottish Fold.” Time Freeze was activated and ended. The obese cat lay at Matcha feet badly beaten and unconscious.
Roly Poly turned his head and thought to himself, “Idiot.”
Matcha smiled at Zhao Yao and pointed with the thumb of his front paw. “You can count on me to educate new cats. I will let him turn over a new leaf.”
The eyes of the obese cat turned white, his mouth muttering inaudibly. Matcha stepped on his mouth and said, “Fatso, behave yourself. I shall teach you manners when we return home.”
Zhao Yao swallowed the obese cat and the six female cats into the Extradimensional Belly. He released the kidnapped women after returning to the downtown area.
At the same time, Lorik fixed an appointment with his Double-Headed Vulture contact at a restaurant.
Two hours later, the main door of the restaurant was shuttered and the curtains pulled.
A muscular bouncer laid twisted on the floor while a middle-aged man with a small beard knelt on the floor, glaring intensely at Zhao Yao.
He said angrily, “Double-Headed Vulture will not let you go. You and your family will perish due to your foolishness. You do not know what kind of trouble you are in.”
Zhao Yao sighed in frustration. “Why do all of you repeat the same words?”
A few minutes later, he knelt on the floor with cold sweat dripping all over his body and his eyes moving frantically recalling the terrifying illusions.
Zhao Yao said to Lin Wanqian, “Let him call Edron and find out his location.”
Edron was Karim’s third son, responsible for the human smuggling ring in Europe. The bearded man was his underling.
Under threats of the terrifying illusion, he finally made a phone call. After a discussion, he hung up the phone and said to Zhao Yao, “I told him a rich Chinese businessman wanted to purchase a shipment of high-quality virgins. He arranged for me to meet him in Paris. I can bring you with me if you impersonate as the assistant of the rich Chinese businessman.”
“Paris?” Zhao Yao frowned and asked, “Isn’t he in this country?”
He shook his head and said, “Only Karim is hiding in the secret mountain base, his five sons are not in this country. Edron is either in London or Paris tending to the human smuggling business.”
Zhao Yao narrowed his eyes and asked, “Do you know the location of the Double-Headed Vulture’s lair?”
“I don’t know. I really don’t know!” He exclaimed, “Only Karim’s sons and his Dragonhawk unit know the location. We do not have access to high-level secrets.”
The Dragonhawk unit was the strongest superpower unit of the Double-Headed Vulture. It consisted of hundreds of powerful villains, criminals, murderers and insane men who were battle-experienced apostles.
They fought against coalition forces from Italy, Montenegro, and Kosovo deep in the mountains and shielded Karim while he moved his secret base. The unit had earned its notoriety in the European supernatural realm.
The bearded man said, “Do not fight against the Double-Headed Vulture. Once you are captured by the Dragonhawks, they will torture you to a state worse than death. I know of Edron’s hidden stash of gold bars. We can retrieve them and escape to a distant place far from this country.”
Zhao Yao did not agree with him. Instead, Zhao Yao would get the gold bars and continue his pursuit of Edron in Paris.
“Capture Edron, then he will bring us to Double-Headed Vulture and they will be exterminated.” Zhao Yao stroked his chin and said, “I shall set up the Dimension Portal here so that I can return anytime.”
If he did so, there would be only two Dimension Portals left in Jianghai.
Zhao Yao reluctantly closed the Dimension Portal of the 18-storey building and set up one over here.
He planned to bring the bearded man to look for Edron. He looked at the bearded man and asked, “Do you speak English?”
As the bearded man was involved in the human smuggling, he might be somewhat fluent in foreign languages.
He nodded and Zhao Yao nodded in return. Lorik and Lin Wanqian were no longer needed.
Zhao Yao snapped his finger and Lorik looked terrified as he collapsed to the ground, gradually closed his eyes and entered the darkest and final ten minutes of his life.
Zhao Yao looked at Lin Wanqian and said, “You may leave now as I do not need your help anymore.” He spat out 10,000 Euros but after thinking for a while, he swallowed back 2000 Euros.
“This is your tour guide fee. Take it and leave the country as soon as possible. It is going to be chaotic very soon.”
Lin Wanqian saw Zhao Yao spitting money out and thought, “He spat money out from his mouth? That is cute. What other objects can he spit out?” She shook her head hard. “This is not the time for this.”
She received the money and asked, “Are you going after Double-Headed Vulture?”
“Of course.”
“Oh, be careful. If you need help, give me a call anytime.”
“Okay, goodbye.”
Lin Wanqian waved in farewell and watched Zhao Yao vanished into the thin air. She felt that the day’s events were a fantasy, only the 8000 Euros in her hands were real.
Zhao Yao traveled discreetly to Paris with the bearded man via public transit and a flight.
Looking at the bustling Parisian streets, Zhao Yao stroked his chin and thought, “Well, I am officially working right now, so I have no time for leisure.”
He looked at the dejected man beside him and spoke to him in English, “Let’s go, where did he tell you to meet?”
The bearded man sighed heavily. “I shouldn’t have come. We really shouldn’t be here. Edron’s accompanied by the Dragonhawks. We will be killed.”
Zhao Yao slapped him on the head. “You are talking trash. If you don’t comply, I will kill you now.”
“Okay.” The bearded man looked at Zhao Yao as though he was looking at a dead man. Under his threats, he said, “He is meeting me tonight at 9pm, XXX bar.”
“Tonight 9pm?” Zhao Yao looked at his watch and it was afternoon. “Do you know where he is? Let’s meet him directly.”
“How would I know?” he gave a wry grin and said, “Edron travels discreetly. Nobody knows his daily itinerary and location.”
