He opened the car door and sat in the backseat, Yang Zhihao paused, surprised to see not only Qi Yun but also two other stern-looking strong men in the car.

Qi Yun smiled and patted his shoulder, reassuring him, "Don't be nervous, these are my friends."

Yang Zhihao then relaxed and smiled again, "Uncle, how did you end up in the Philippines?"

Qi Yun chuckled lightly, replying, "I'm here to handle some business, and to ask you for some information."

"Whatever you need, Uncle, I'll tell you everything I know," Yang Zhihao answered without hesitation.

Qi Yun turned to look out the window and asked, "Did you see two young people, a man and a woman, kidnapped last night?"

Yang Zhihao, surprised, covered his mouth with his hand, "Uncle, how did you know!"

"Yes, I saw it last night, in the parking lot at the entrance of Good Luck, those two people were kidnapped, they also seemed to be Chinese."

Qi Yun nodded slightly but didn't explain how he knew and instead asked further, "Do you know who kidnapped them?"

"I do!" Yang Zhihao nodded seriously, "It was Pat's people! They often kidnap Chinese on this street."

"Pat?"

"Yes, Pat is also Chinese, but no one knows his Chinese name, everyone calls him Pat," Yang Zhihao explained.

Qi Yun rubbed his chin and continued asking, "Do you know where Pat took them or where his base is?"

Yang Zhihao thought for a moment, pointing ahead, "I'm not sure, but I know his men often drink at that BBQ stand up ahead."

Qi Yun pondered for a while, "He kidnaps people at the entrance of the gambling hall, and the owner doesn't care?"

Yang Zhihao shook his head, "He often goes to the gambling hall to find the owner, they must know each other."

"Moreover, Pat is also in cahoots with the J station people, I've seen him drinking with uniformed officers, there are many cases of kidnapped people's families coming to report, but they end up with no result."

Qi Yun listened, and his impression of this place was once again refreshed.

Before coming, Harris had already warned him that the authorities here were unreliable, didn't expect them to be so blatant, no wonder the security is so chaotic.

"Go to the BBQ stand and see for me if Pat's people are there."

"Alright." Yang Zhihao nodded and pushed the door to get out and check.

Qi Yun took out a cigarette box from his pocket and lit one.

A few minutes later, Yang Zhihao jogged back, and after getting into the car, he panted, "They're up ahead! Two people, one of them is blind in one eye."

Qi Yun nodded, put out the cigarette in his hand, and without asking about Pat, he seriously looked at Yang Zhihao, "Do you want to return to China? I can send you to school."

Upon hearing this, Yang Zhihao lowered his head and fell silent for a long time before raising it to look at Qi Yun, "Thank you, Uncle, I won't return to China."

"I have no family left, I have to rely on myself from now on."

Qi Yun sighed, in just a few months the child had become more resilient.

He raised his hand and touched Yang Zhihao's head, speaking softly, "I'll give you my phone number, remember it, if you ever need help just call me."

With that, he quickly repeated his phone number twice, "Did you remember it?"

"I remember!" Yang Zhihao nodded earnestly, "Thank you, Uncle."

"Alright, you go back first, don't mention to anyone that you've seen me." Qi Yun patted Yang Zhihao's shoulder, quietly stuffed the remaining six chips from before at the gambling hall into his pocket.

"Okay, I know, Uncle, you also be careful." Yang Zhihao seriously looked at Qi Yun, then got out of the car and left.

After he walked away, Qi Yun instructed Chen Wei, "Drive ahead, stop at the BBQ stand entrance."

Chen Wei responded by starting the car and slowly drove forward.

About three hundred meters ahead, on the right curb, there was a BBQ stand with a few customers drinking there.

Qi Yun observed through the car window and indeed found, among one of the tables, one person was One-Eyed Dragon.

"Let's go." Qi Yun called out, opened the door, and got out, with Chen Wei and Duan Pingyu following suit.

As there were many Chinese on this street, their appearance didn't draw attention from those around.

Qi Yun directly approached the table of One-Eyed Dragon, pulled a chair to sit down, Chen Wei and Duan Pingyu stood on either side.

One-Eyed Dragon and his companion showed a trace of bewilderment in their faces given the sudden appearance of the trio.

"Who are you?" One-Eyed Dragon asked, frowning.

Qi Yun didn't answer his question, scanned the surroundings, and casually spoke, "I want to talk business with Pat, where is he?"

One-Eyed Dragon didn't respond, he scrutinized Qi Yun for a long while before finally shaking his head, "I don't know Pat."

Qi Yun chuckled, "Let's talk in the car."

The guy next to One-Eyed Dragon sneered, his missing front tooth let the air in, "You must be mistaken? We don't know Pat."

Qi Yun ignored them, stood up, went to the car, and opened the driver's side door to sit inside.

Chen Wei and Duan Pingyu stayed, coldly watching the pair, lifting the corner of their shirts to reveal the guns on their waists.

"Let's go."

They both paused.

Seeing Chen Wei and the cold expression on Pingyu's face, they dared not resist, exchanged a glance, and actually headed toward the car.

Duan Pingyu got in the passenger seat first, pulling out a gun from his waist, ready to shoot if these two dared to act recklessly.

Chen Wei urged One-Eyed Dragon and his friend into the car back seat, closed the car door, then searched them and confirmed they had no weapons before nodding at Duan Pingyu.

Qi Yun quickly started the car, leaving the BBQ stand.

The BBQ stand owner saw this and spat on the ground, cursing under his breath for bad luck.

This group of One-Eyed Dragon often drank at his place but always put it on the tab, already owing thousands.

He knew what they were up to, didn't dare refuse, could only let these scum drink and eat for free.

Therefore, faced with their unexpected departure, he considered it an escalation of their behavior, leaving without a word.

...

Ten minutes later, Qi Yun drove into an abandoned construction site.

He had found this location on the map earlier, intending to give One-Eyed Dragon and his friend a good scare here.

As the car stopped, Chen Wei and Duan Pingyu each pushed one of them, using the bright moonlight to walk toward the unfinished building ahead.

In front of the unfinished building, Chen Wei yelled "Squat down!", then pulled out his gun, coldly staring at the two.

Implying he would shoot them dead without hesitation if they weren't cooperative.

One-Eyed Dragon and his companion squatted down obediently, their expressions tense.

It wasn't that they were cowardly, but this scene was too familiar to them, they had experienced it numerous times before.

Except, previously, they were standing, and the ones squatting were others...

"Bro…brother, maybe there's some misunderstanding? Let's talk this out, no…no need for this..."

Qi Yun took out a cigarette box, lit one, took a couple puffs, and asked the two with his back turned, "One more chance, do you know Pat?"

"Know! Know!" This time they didn't dare lie, nodding eagerly.

Seeing they were willing to cooperate, Qi Yun finally turned around and said gravely, "Did you guys kidnap two people last night at the entrance of Good Luck, one male and one female?"

One-Eyed Dragon and his partner froze upon hearing this.

They had initially thought these people were sent by their boss's enemy, didn't expect it was actually concerning those two hostages.

"None of you want to speak?" Qi Yun squatted down and exhaled a smoke ring, "Or how about this, today only one of you gets to leave here alive, whoever cooperates can raise a hand."

Upon hearing this, Chen Wei immediately pulled the gun slide.

Hearing the cold mechanical sound, the two flinched, even though they were tough and cruel usually, few people could avoid fear when facing death themselves.

"Cooperate! I'm cooperating!"

"I'll say! Whatever you want to know I'll tell you everything!"

The two almost simultaneously raised their hands and shouted.

Qi Yun nodded contentedly, "Since you two are both willing to speak, then answer one question each, if the other gets it wrong, the other can point it out, and I'll send him away."

"One-Eyed Dragon, start with you."

One-Eyed Dragon nodded hastily, "Okay, no problem, I definitely won't lie."

"Are you the ones who kidnapped them?" Qi Yun asked sternly.

"Yes! We kidnapped them! Last night Pat had us do it!" One-Eyed Dragon didn't dare to lie anymore.

Qi Yun turned to the guy missing a front tooth, "Are they dead or alive now?"

"Alive! Alive!" Missing Tooth quickly replied, even providing an extra answer, "They're locked in the basement right now!"
