Endless Fall

Chapter 96 - 96 Tracking Down He Qi

96 Tracking Down He Qi

“No.” Pei Zhi held the hand on his collar, feeling both helpless and amused. “Jiaojiao, I want to watch a sci-fi movie.”

“Don’t you like this drama?”

“I didn’t watch the previous episodes, so I’m confused.”

Lin Jiao did not insist.

!!

She opened the list for him and, at his signal, played a sci-fi movie.

“Uncle, when can I be discharged?” Before the movie started, she lay on his chest and played with his fingertips.

“Friday.” Pei Zhi carefully brushed aside the hair on her shoulder. “You can be discharged after the stitches are removed.”

“Did you help me apply for leave?”

“Tomorrow.”

“Yes.” Lin Jiao focused on the iPad, her eyes reflecting the scenes that flashed past.

She lay on the bed with him for a long time and watched movie after movie.

Qu Shao knocked on the door the next evening.

He took out a USB flash drive and went to Shen Yi’s office to borrow a laptop. “The person who went out with Miss Lin is Su Tian.”

On the footage, the two of them could clearly be seen standing downstairs and having a few minutes of conversation.

Although they could not hear anything, they could tell that there was hostility between the two of them.

Pei Zhi frowned. “Did she hurt Lin Jiao?”

“No.” Qu Shao clicked on the image of the front door of the cafe and the back alley. “Not long after He Qi entered, Miss Lin was carried out. It should be him who did it.”

“What about the camera footage in the cafe?”

“They’ve already deleted it in advance.”

“They are pretty fast.” Pei Zhi sneered.

As he rubbed the fountain pen on the table, he asked Shen Yi, “How serious is Jiaojiao’s injury?”

“Minor injury.” Shen Yi crossed his arms. “If we call the police, he’ll be locked up for fifteen days at most.”

“That’s too easy on him.”

“Indeed. We have to settle this privately.”

“Leave He Qi to Yanshen.”

Pei Zhi knew that Zhou Yanshen was angry, so he decided to give him a chance to vent his anger.

After Zhou Yanshen was done venting his anger, it would be his turn to do so.

Shen Yi nodded. “How about Su Tian?” He remembered that she had come to do a check-up. “Her medical record can be used against her.”

“We can’t give it to Gu Quan yet.”

Pei Zhi guessed what he meant and reminded him, “Don’t forget that Jiaojiao must avoid extreme ups and downs of emotion at this moment.”

“That’s true.” With Gu Quan’s personality, he would most likely come to find Lin Jiao after ditching Su Tian.

At that time, Lin Jiao would definitely suffer.

Pei Zhi thought for a moment and said to Qu Shao, “Choose someone from the information and tell him Su Tian’s location.”

Qu Shao nodded. “Got it.”

“What do you mean? I don’t understand.” Shen Yi was curious.

After he finished reading the information, he regretted it so much that he wanted to wash his eyes. “It’s too scary. I can’t find an adjective to describe it.”

“Me too at first.” Qu Shao crossed his legs and swayed his feet, asking him for some advice. “Which one do you think is suitable?”

“About the same.”

“What if you had to choose one?”

Shen Yi guessed that he was conflicted, so he gave him an idea. “Find out who’s in the country first.”

“Alright.” Qu Shao pulled out the USB flash drive.

He walked to the window and called Ven Olle to ask him to keep an eye on this matter.

At the same time, Zhou Yanshen sent a few people to capture He Qi.

As night fell, a few silver lights flashed across the dark clouds in the sky, indicating that this night was not going to be peaceful.

In the underground boxing arena in the city center.

He Qi, who was stuffed in a brown sack, was thrown to the floor without any strength to struggle.

The light above his head poured down at him. He subconsciously narrowed his eyes and sized up his surroundings through the layers of blurry light.

“Send him up.” The man with the crew cut glanced at him indifferently and lowered his head to wipe the back of his hand.

He Qi was so frightened that his face was pale, but the tape around his mouth made him unable to utter a sound. He could only let them push him into the boxing ring.

The group of burly men who were watching the beating felt bored and wanted to spice things up.

“Brother Dao, untie him first.” They shouted at the boxer opposite He Qi.

“Remove the tape too. Let us hear him beg.”

“That’s right! I was about to fall asleep.”

Hearing the suggestions, Brother Dao removed the tape that was covered in saliva disdainfully and untied his hands.

He Qi, who could finally speak, turned to glare at the man on the sofa and threatened, “I advise you to let me go!”

“What if I don’t?”

“Unless you kill me now, I’ll definitely flatten this lousy place!”

“You’re that confident?” The man with the crew cut laughed.

He raised his chin at the boxer. “If you can beat him, I’ll do you the favor of flattening this lousy place.”

“Do you think I’ll be ordered around by you? Who do you think you…” Before He Qi could finish speaking, he received a heavy punch on the face.

His anger rose. Without waiting for the other party to attack again, he kicked his abdomen.

Brother Dao hammered at his knee.

He glanced at the place where He Qi wanted to launch a sneak attack. “I didn’t expect you to like this place.”

He Qi, who had never been humiliated like this, pounced on him crazily.

However, he was not trained, and his punches felt like air on Brother Dao.

“Are you done?” Brother Dao looked at him disdainfully.

When He Qi stood up again, he stopped teasing him and punched him again and again without holding back.

Gradually, the smell of blood and sweat mixed together and brushed past the audience below.

He Qi, who had been beaten unconscious a few times, lost his will completely. He even started begging.

Unfortunately, no one cared about it.

He could only endure the pain that was sweeping through his body. He could only watch as countless unfamiliar faces took turns throwing punches at him.

“Boss.” After Brother Dao left the boxing ring again, he found the man with the crew cut. “It’s Friday.”

“He’s still alive?”

“He’s alive, but he’s no different from dead.”

“How tragic.” The man with the crew cut shook his head.

He called Zhou Yanshen and, at his instruction, asked someone to send He Qi to Tongji Hospital.

Shen Yi, who received a new patient, went to the hospital to welcome this big client.

He followed the nurse to the emergency room and said seriously, “He’s seriously injured. Let’s do a thorough checkup first.”

“Thorough check up? Does that include andrology?”

“Of course it does.”

“Alright.” The nurse glanced down and saw that there was nothing intact on He Qi, so she didn’t object.

Shen Yi caught her gaze and wanted to laugh.

He covered his mouth and coughed. “Send him to the ward on the top floor after the treatment.”
