Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the short knife tightly gripped in the Yakuza's hand directly stabbed into Duanmu Huai's arm, then...
"Clang!!!"
The next moment, the blade of the short knife broke into two pieces, and the front part was completely sent flying!
And on Duanmu Huai's arm, there wasn't even a white mark!
"......…"
Seeing this scene, the whole Yakuza's eyes almost popped out, he was dumbfounded, his mouth wide open, looking at the broken short knife in his hand, unable to process the situation. At this moment, Duanmu Huai had already reached out and grabbed him with one hand!
"Ah...… Ah...… Ah...…"
As Duanmu Huai grabbed this Yakuza, lifting him from the ground, the latter seemed to finally react, staring pale-faced at Duanmu Huai, trembling all over, opening his mouth trying to beg for mercy, but couldn't even speak clearly. Yet, Duanmu Huai was completely indifferent, he just held onto the Yakuza, raising him high, and then...…
"Beep beep beep—————!!!"
Accompanied by urgent whistles, the next moment, several policemen hurriedly ran over.
"Stop it right now! What's going on here!!"
Saved!
Hearing the police whistle, the Yakuza immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then blacked out and passed out completely.
"......…So, you went to the police station again after this, and now you're back?"
Xie Sita stared at Duanmu Huai, quietly asking.
"What about those Yakuza?"
"Most of them went to the hospital, and the rest were taken into custody."
Duanmu Huai snorted coldly.
"Obstructing investigation, assaulting people without reason, they'll be in for a tough time, and it makes my job a lot easier."
Indeed, when the police arrived, they originally thought it was a mutual fight, planning to arrest both Duanmu Huai and the Yakuza, but Duanmu Huai immediately showed his detective credentials, stating he was there to investigate an incident in Kamurochō. Just as he entered, before doing anything, he was confronted by this group of Yakuza.
No need to say more, there were so many bystanders on Kamurochō's main street, everyone saw what happened from beginning to end, and confirmed that Duanmu Huai had just arrived and did nothing, yet was blocked by that group of Yakuza. Moreover, it was the Yakuza who attacked first, so naturally, they were arrested, sent to the hospital, and Duanmu Huai patted his behind and went home.
After all, his task was complete.
Yes, Duanmu Huai went to Kamurochō not for investigation. After all, finding people isn't like a murder case where you need to investigate the scene. Logically speaking, Duanmu Huai didn't have to go to Kamurochō, but he still did.
The reason is simple... it was just to drag down the Tang Island Group.
The Hawk Moon Group's commission for Duanmu Huai was to find the owner of that piece of land and bring them to the Hawk Moon Group. But the problem was, Duanmu Huai was alone, while the Tang Island Group had hundreds of people. For a task like finding someone, if you have no direction, you rely entirely on Human Sea Tactics.
It's like spending money on luck; without the luck of getting three golds in ten pulls, what can you do?
Simple, just spend money, the more you spend, the higher the chances, right?
So the Tang Island Group sent over three hundred people to search, which is definitely faster than Duanmu Huai doing it alone.
If the Tang Island Group found the person first, Duanmu Huai's effort would be in vain, wouldn't it?
So Duanmu Huai came up with this plan.
If I can't find them, then you shouldn't either, just drag down the Tang Island Group!
You have to know, out of Tang Island's more than 300 people, at least half were taken down by Duanmu Huai yesterday, and he even held back on purpose, not causing fatal injuries, just breaking their bones. Adding in those jailed, basically, two-thirds of Tang Island's people were out of commission for a while.
And a group's operations, of course, aren't just about finding people, there's also collecting protection money, managing venues, etc., all requiring manpower. Now with Tang Island suddenly short two-thirds of their people, manpower is obviously tight, and to maintain normal operations, they clearly have to reduce the number of people looking for the owner. This naturally makes Duanmu Huai's job lighter.
As for whether the Tang Island Group would find trouble because of this... hey, if they can, let them come. If Duanmu Huai beat Tang Daosong half-paralyzed, wouldn't the Hawk Moon Group celebrate that?
Moreover, Duanmu Huai is a detective, considered a "common person", so this isn't even a gang rivalry. Tang Island Group getting cleaned up by a "common person" like this, if they make a big deal out of revenge, they'd lose face and credibility.
If they can't win, that's even worse.
So Duanmu Huai believes if Tang Daosong has any sense, he wouldn't mess with him, unless he has a death wish.
"In short, the search officially starts tomorrow, will you help?"
"I don't want to, I have my own matters to handle."
"Alright, let's go again."
"Again?"
Hearing Duanmu Huai speak, Xie Sita's face changed slightly.
"Wait, it's enough, I want to sleep now...…"
"Haha, but that mouth of yours is working so hard, it really lacks persuasion."
"It's just that you're too big...… ah......!"
Soon, a night passed.
When Duanmu Huai got up from Xie Sita's bed and returned to his room, she was still in a deep sleep. Honestly, this detective really could sleep, not only waking up after the sun was high every day, but also taking afternoon naps, claiming it was because she was constantly thinking at high speed, hence her three Desires were stronger than ordinary people's.
Well, it was true; at least living with her, Duanmu Huai found Xie Sita could eat, sleep, and work tirelessly.
Last night she even invited him proactively, saying she wanted to change her mood and relax.
"Ring ring....…"
Just as Duanmu Huai returned to his own room, his phone rang. He picked it up, and on the other end came the voice of Tezuka Renichi.
"Oh my, Mr. Duanmu, I never thought you could mess up the Tang Island Group like this, really makes one look at you in a new light."
"Not a big deal, just pulled on their leg a bit, besides, they started trouble first."
"Hahaha, this matter has now spread throughout the entire Toujou Group, the Tang Island Group is basically a joke, everyone's having a good laugh, but they truly are unlucky, as the saying goes, misfortunes never come singly, it does make sense."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai paused.
"Misfortunes never come singly? What else happened to them?"
"You didn't know? Didn't watch the morning news?"
"I just got out of bed, what's up?"
"This morning, the police found a corpse in a blank lot, and according to the investigation, the killer is likely from the Tang Island Group...… hehe, now they're really in deep trouble!"
"Oh?"
Duanmu Huai's eyes lit up.
"Go on?"
