Volume 3: Rise of the God of War Chapter 458 Release People at the Same Time
"Tell me, who sent you here?" While the other party was releasing Bella, Li Jiu interrogated the thin boss.
"This..." The thin boss frowned and looked embarrassed.
You know, there is an unwritten rule in their line of work, which is that you must never disclose the employer's information easily.
Otherwise, if they disappear and leak information, at best they will not only be despised by their peers, but also lose their credibility, and it will be difficult for them to get tasks in the future. At worst, if the employer is powerful enough, once the employer knows that they have leaked the employer's information, they will probably be killed without a burial place, or at least be hunted down for the rest of their lives.
Unfortunately, as far as he knew, the employer who gave him this task was a very powerful family!
If the other party wanted to kill me, it would only take a few minutes...
"What? At this time, you still want to hide it for others? If that's the case, although I admire your professional ethics, but... I have to take your life." Seeing that the other party was hesitant, Li Jiu threatened indifferently.
"I, I say..." The thin boss was shocked and responded immediately.
Are you kidding? Compared with your own life, what's worth mentioning about professional ethics?
Besides, if I will die whether I speak or not, and I will die sooner or later, I would rather choose to save my life first and live a little longer, maybe there will still be a glimmer of hope.
"Although they didn't reveal their true identities when they gave me the task, and people in our line of work usually don't take the initiative to investigate the employer's identity, the reward they offered this time was too high. I always felt that there might be something wrong with this task..." The thin boss calmed down and said seriously: "So, I investigated the other party's identity afterwards, and found out that the other party was..."
"Who is it?" Li Jiu's heart moved and he shouted in a deep voice.
"Do you know where I come from?" The thin boss did not answer directly, but asked Li Jiu instead.
"Hmm?" Li Jiu was slightly stunned, and said impatiently: "If I'm not mistaken, you should be from the Eastern Province, right?"
"Haha, that's right, we are from the easternmost part of the alliance." The thin boss smiled bitterly, "You should know that the eastern province is the most prosperous economically in the alliance. At the same time, there are also various powerful forces entrenched there..."
Having said that, the thin boss paused, as if he was thinking about something.
"Brother... although I don't know how you got in trouble with them, I advise you not to go against them anymore. Those people are really not to be trifled with. As for their identities... even if you know it, it will not do you any good..." The skinny boss seemed to be extremely afraid of the identity of his employer, and even at this time he still wanted to hide it.
After hearing what the thin boss said, Li Jiu felt depressed.
He knew very well that the other party's words sounded like they were for his own good, but in fact, it was because the other party was worried that if the identity of the employer was revealed, he would be in danger of death.
"You don't have to worry about my affairs. Tell me, who is the other party?" Li Jiu continued to ask.
"Oh! Okay, I'll tell you, they are..." The thin boss sighed helplessly, knowing that he could not get away with it today, so he revealed the identity of his employer.
"Li Jiu!"
However, at this moment, a cry of surprise suddenly interrupted the thin boss's words.
"Bella!" The moment he heard the voice, Li Jiu immediately recognized the identity of the owner of the voice and turned around to look.
I saw Bella walking towards me not far away, led by other kidnappers.
However, at this time, although the tape on Bella's mouth had been torn off, her hands were still tied behind her back with ropes.
"Humph! Don't you understand what it means to release people? Untie the ropes!" Seeing this, Li Jiu couldn't help but snorted and shouted angrily. At the same time, he also pointed the muzzle of the Desert Eagle in his hand at the blind robbers in front.
Seeing Li Jiu's reaction, the kidnappers were suddenly shocked. They had witnessed Li Jiu's accurate shooting skills with their own eyes, so they had no doubt that at such a close distance, once Li Jiu fired a shot, one of them would definitely die immediately.
"You can untie the rope, but... you have to release our boss first!" One of the kidnappers mustered up his courage, pointed a gun at Bella's head, and threatened Li Jiu.
Seeing this scene, Li Jiu couldn't help but frowned, looked at the thin boss in his hand, and said indifferently: "If you still want to live, let them release the person first."
"Brother, this... It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that I can't afford the risk... How about this, I'll let them untie the ropes first, and then we'll release the people at the same time. You let me go, and my men will release the people immediately." The thin boss said with a bitter face.
"Hmm?" Hearing the other party's words, Li Jiu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Looking at the current situation, if I don't let this guy go, he won't let me release him.
But if he was let go, there was no guarantee that these guys would turn against him and attack him and Bella.
But he didn't care. Even if he didn't use the biochemical transformation, he could easily deal with these ignorant guys just by relying on his 3-fold enhanced physical fitness and superpowers.
However, it would be bad if the two sides clashed again and Bella was hurt.
"I'm not interested in your life at all, and there's no problem in letting you go. But how do I know that after I let you go, we can leave safely?" After thinking for a while, Li Jiu asked cautiously.
"Haha, brother, what you said is also what I am worried about. I don't know if you will let us go safely if we release the people... Maybe you don't believe it, but I can only promise that as long as you let me go, I will take people away immediately and will never attack you again. After all, your strength has exceeded my expectations, and now I plan to give up this mission." The thin boss said with a helpless smile.
Listening to the thin boss's words, Li Jiu felt that the other party's attitude seemed sincere, so he nodded and said solemnly: "Well, remember your words, and also remember that my gun is behind your head. If you dare to go back on your words, the next person to die here will be you."
After saying that, Li Jiu let go of his hand.
"Let them release the people." Li Jiu said in a deep voice, pointing a gun directly at the skinny boss's head.
"Let him go!" After the thin boss regained his freedom, he immediately shouted to his men.
Hearing the boss's order, the kidnappers loosened the rope on Bella's hands and let her go.
Then, the two of them walked towards opposite sides.
However, just as the two sides passed each other, a fierce look suddenly flashed in the thin boss's eyes, and at the same time, he exerted force with his feet and accelerated towards the opposite side.
"Plan 2, start!" The thin boss suddenly shouted as he rushed out.
