Hearing the sound from behind, Zhou Dafa whipped around to see a young man standing at the doorway, looking coldly at him.
"Who are you?!"
Zhou Dafa's eyes widened in shock. When had this guy come in? How had there been not the slightest sound!
Not only was he shocked, but An Lan was also wide-eyed, somewhat dumbfounded—someone had actually come?
At that, a surge of ecstasy filled her heart—someone had come, which meant she was going to be saved!
"Zhou Dafa, chairman of the Hongfa Group, honorary president of the Zhonghai City Children's Protection Association, started by trafficking children, amassing a countless fortune in bloody capital..."
Tang Luo ignored Zhou Dafa's words, his voice ice cold.
Hearing Tang Luo's words, Zhou Dafa's face drastically changed. How did he know!
These were his biggest secrets, known by very few!
"Ten years ago, under the guise of your role as the honorary president of the Children's Protection Association, you 'adopted' seven hundred orphans from various orphanages in Zhonghai City and sold them abroad..."
"Fifteen years ago, you utilized your underlings to purchase three hundred and fifteen orphans for the Russian Axe Organization..."
"Twenty years ago, you were contacted by the vice director of the Island Nation's Okamura Laboratory, who needed one hundred and fifty children for experiments... And you sold those kids to them to be used as lab rats..."
Tang Luo stared at Zhou Dafa, his voice growing even colder.
"..."
Cold sweat broke out on Zhou Dafa's forehead. How did this man know these secrets, and know them so well!
"Who, who exactly are you?"
Zhou Dafa was frightened, truly frightened, his voice becoming somewhat hysterical.
An Lan was also stunned by the side. Was what this young man saying true?
Zhou Dafa, who wore the halo of 'honorary president of the Children's Protection Association' and 'philanthropist,' had actually committed such heinous acts?
"Who I am is not important, what is important is that your retribution has come!"
Tang Luo's whole body radiated a ferocious aura of killing intent—he had enacted Heavenly Punishment multiple times, but it was rare for him to feel such explosive anger!
Feeling Tang Luo's intense killing intent, Zhou Dafa involuntarily took several steps back: "You…what are you going to do? I'll have you know, my bodyguards are just downstairs, and as soon as I shout, they'll come running up!"
"Heh, then call them, let's see who can save your sorry life!"
Tang Luo said with a cold laugh.
Zhou Dafa paused, his face changing again—had his bodyguards downstairs been taken out already?
Otherwise, how could such a large person come up here completely undetected?
But why hadn't he heard anything?
"Zhou Dafa, have you ever heard the saying, 'The Wheel of Heaven turns; who can escape its decree? No retribution is absent, simply awaiting its time! Now, your retribution is here!"
After finishing, Tang Luo stepped forward toward Zhou Dafa, his murderous intent suffusing the air.
Zhou Dafa stumbled backward in panic: "No, don't come any closer... Help, someone help..."
Yet, though he cried out several times, he received no response, which made him despair.
Suddenly, he thought of something, turned around, and lunged at An Lan with a frightful expression: "Don't come any closer, or I'll..."
"Ahh..."
An Lan, seeing Zhou Dafa lunge at her, turned pale with fright and couldn't help but scream.
Then she saw a figure step in front of her, grabbing hold of Zhou Dafa's right hand.
Crack!
Tang Luo seized Zhou Dafa's right hand and forcefully twisted, the sound of bone breaking filling the air.
"Ah..."
Zhou Dafa let out a terrible cry as Tang Luo brutally broke his right wrist.
Bang!
Tang Luo kicked Zhou Dafa flying, then stepped forward to break his left leg as well.
Tang Luo felt that for a man who had reached the depths of depravity, killing him wouldn't even be satisfying; only making him live a life worse than death would avenge those innocent children!
Zhou Dafa trembled all over with pain, never having imagined he would one day suffer such torture!
Crack!
Tang Luo stepped on Zhou Dafa's shin, exerted force and snapped it in two!
"Does it hurt? Ever thought about the kids you sold off as lab rats, how much they're suffering?"
Crack!
Zhou Dafa's right foot also broke.
"Your hands are stained with the blood of innocent children. Today, I'm here to collect that debt for them!"
With every word Tang Luo spoke, he stamped down, and the sound of breaking bones kept ringing out.
Listening to the sharp and piercing sound of bones breaking, An Lan felt a chill down her spine... Although she knew that Zhou Dafa deserved it, this young man's methods were just too brutal!
"Ah... no... don't kill me... as long as you don't kill me, I can give you money, a lot of money..."
Zhou Dafa screamed miserably, his gaze towards Tang Luo filled with fear; he was facing a devil!
"Money? How much money do you have?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Luo seemed to be tempted and stopped torturing Zhou Dafa, asking playfully.
"I have a lot of money... I'll give you a billion, please, spare me!"
Seeing this approach worked, Zhou Dafa was overjoyed and hastily shouted.
"A billion? Are you trying to give alms to a beggar?"
Tang Luo scoffed.
"Then two billion..." Zhou Dafa held up two fingers with his only intact left hand, but seeing Tang Luo's continued scoffing, he quickly changed his plea, "No, five billion... five billion US dollars!"
Hearing about five billion US dollars, Tang Luo finally seemed satisfied.
"Can you make the transfer now?"
"Yes, all five billion US dollars are in a Swiss bank..."
Zhou Dafa nodded eagerly.
"Good, then make the transfer now!"
After Tang Luo finished speaking, he gave Zhou Dafa a bank account.
Soon, Zhou Dafa successfully transferred the money using a laptop.
"I heard you've got some nice things hidden here in this villa, is that right?"
After Zhou Dafa completed the transfer, Tang Luo asked indifferently.
"Yes, yes."
"Show me!"
"Alright, it's in the safe over there."
With his life in Tang Luo's hands, Zhou Dafa dared not object. He crawled to the safe, entered a string of passwords, and then pressed his left thumb on the fingerprint sensor.
Beep!
The safe door slowly opened. Zhou Dafa gritted his teeth, reached inside for a gun, and swiftly turned to aim at Tang Luo, his expression hideously fierce: "You bastard, I'll fucking kill you!" He said, ready to pull the trigger.
Bang!
A gunshot sounded.
The orange-yellow bullet, spinning at high speed, blew Zhou Dafa's head apart!
Blood mixed with brain matter splattered, gruesomely!
Zhou Dafa's body swayed and then toppled into the pool of blood on the ground.
Tang Luo slowly withdrew the Desert Eagle, looking at Zhou Dafa with half of his head missing, and muttered, "Blowing your head off with one shot is letting you off easy."
"Ah..."
An ear-piercing scream rang out, startling Tang Luo. He turned his head and saw An Lan's eyes roll back as she fainted from fear.
Tang Luo shook his head, helpless; damn it, he had forgotten there was a girl nearby!
However, he didn't bother with the unconscious An Lan and instead squatted in front of the safe, taking out the items one by one.
