half thorns, half joy

In a room in the basement warehouse, Deng Li was leaning on a bench covered with blankets, with an ugly expression on his face.

Fan Li, whose hands and feet were bound, stared at Deng Li for a while, then suddenly started giggling.

Deng Li frowned, and said dissatisfiedly, "What are you laughing at?"

"Laughing at you." Fan Li mocked, "I didn't expect to see such a flustered side of you one day. It's quite novel."

Deng Li snorted coldly, "Why, do you think your situation is better than mine?"

Fan Li shook his head, "That's not true." He continued: "However, I have been so disrespectful for a long time, and there is nothing I can't get used to. On the contrary, you, who have always held it high, are not used to being manipulated and forced like this. Feel it."

Deng Li didn't say a word, but glanced at his subordinates beside him.

The subordinate with his hands behind his back understood, stepped forward in two steps, and kicked Fan Li in the chest, kicking Fan Li to the ground, followed by another punch and kick.

Poor Fan Li's hands and feet were tightly bound, unable to resist at all, and could only be beaten passively.

Seeing the blood oozing from the corner of Fan Li's mouth after being beaten, Deng Li waved his hand to signal his subordinates to stop.

"Hiss—" Fan Li supported the floor with his hands, struggled to sit up, raised his bound hands with difficulty, and wiped away the blood from the corners of his mouth.

Deng Li looked at the embarrassed Fan Li coldly, with naked contempt and disdain in his eyes.

"Fan Li, you'd better recognize the current situation. No matter how many people you have outside, you are in my hands now, and you don't have any arrogant capital."

"Heh—" As if hearing a joke, Fan Li grinned with a broken corner of his mouth, "Deng Li, do you think I still care about my life at this point?"

Deng Li's face became ugly.

Fan Li continued: "I fell into your hands because I was careless. I deserved my life. Anyway, I have enjoyed enough in this life. I don't regret dying. But you, you are very rare about your life." Yes."

"Are you really not afraid of death?" Deng Li asked suspiciously.

Fan Li laughed, "Of course I'm afraid, who is not afraid of death? But as long as I think that I can drag you with me even if I die, I don't feel bad. You plotted against me and betrayed me, and if I could drag you to Huangquan Road, I would Not dead in vain."

Fan Li didn't tell a lie, he had already seen how ruthless Deng Li was, and if he fell into Deng Li's hands, he would either die or be disabled, and in all likelihood, he would not be able to walk out completely.

That being the case, he also looked away.

What's more, he really found it very interesting to see Deng Li's restless and gaffe before he died.

Deng Li's subordinates saw that Fan Li was rude to Deng Li, which made Deng Li black-faced, and stepped forward to fix Fan Li again.

This time, the strike was even more severe. Fan Li was hit hard in one eye. He curled up on the ground, panting heavily in pain.

"Fan Li, don't think that I won't kill you." Deng Li looked down at Fan Li who was in so much pain that he couldn't get up, and said mercilessly.

Fan Li bit his lip, endured the severe pain of hurting his eyes, and the cold sweat kept streaming down his face, he didn't even have the strength to refute.

At this time, a man wearing mid-cut leather boots trotted into the room, with urgency and panic written all over his face.

"Master Deng." The man called Deng Li, and his Adam's apple moved up and down quickly.

"What's the matter?" Deng Li asked coldly.

The man licked his lips, shook them and said, "Master Deng, we...we seem to be surrounded by people."

Deng Li sat up straight instantly, "What did you say?"

"It's true. None of the people we sent out to patrol have returned. Judging from the detections sent out, the number of people outside is at least three times that of ours. In addition, our communication signal has also been cut off..."

At the end of the man's speech, his voice became smaller and smaller, obviously losing his confidence.

To explain this sentence separately, it means that there are not only many people outside, but also the equipment and tools are powerful by them. Now they are like trapped animals, very passive.

Deng Li squeezed the right hand of the handle of the chair, so hard that he almost crushed the piece of wood carved into the dragon head.

His sharp eyes glanced at Fan Li who was curled up on the ground, then he stood up abruptly, walked in front of Fan Li in a few steps, grabbed Fan Li by the collar, pulled Fan Li and forced Fan Li to face him.

"Say! Where did you get so many people! Do you still have accomplices!"

Fan Li reluctantly opened his uninjured eye and squinted his eyes to look at Deng Li. Although he was so embarrassed compared to Deng Li, his mood was much improved by Deng Li.

"What do you guess?" Fan Li asked Deng Li with a hippie smile.

Deng Li gritted his teeth, punched Fan Li in the face, and knocked Fan Li to the ground.

One of Fan Li's teeth was knocked loose, his gums were broken, blood splashed out and fell on the floor.

In the next second, Deng Li grabbed the collar and pulled him up again.

"Say!"

Fan Li was in pain all over his body, especially his injured eyeball. The pain caused his brain to be dizzy, almost unconscious.

"What kind of accomplices can I have, cough cough..." Fan Li closed his eyes tightly, his brows wrinkled into Sichuan characters due to the pain, "Deng Li, don't make any more unnecessary struggles. Go surrender, I'm calling the police , there are police outside.”

Deng Li could hardly believe his ears, "What?"

This is the worst possible outcome.

If there are only Fan Li's people outside, no matter if it's a bloodbath or a fierce battle, as long as he can win, no matter how big the loss is, it will be within his control.

But if the police intervene in his fight with Fan Li, it means that he has been exposed.In other words, it was impossible for him to get out of the way anyway.

All the compromises and concessions he made before were in vain.

Deng Li's seven orifices were full of smoke, and he gritted his teeth. He resisted the urge to strangle Fan Li to death with his own hands, and asked word by word: "Why, what, why did you do such a thing of mutual sinking!"

Fan Li participated in many things that Deng Li did that violated the law and wandered on the edge of the law. If Deng Li was arrested, Fan Li would not be able to escape unscathed.

Therefore, the three words of total sinking are not wrong at all.

Fan Li ho ho smiled miserably, he seemed to really care about nothing, "Why, you are allowed to betray me, Deng Li, and I am not allowed to betray you?"

"You're crazy!" Deng Li roared angrily, throwing Fan Li to the ground.

The corners of Fan Li's mouth were constantly dripping with bright red blood. As soon as he gasped, the rusty blood poured straight into his throat, causing him to shrink back and cough one after another.

A roomful of Deng Li's subordinates saw this situation and realized that the situation was not good, their expressions changed and they became uneasy.

"Master Deng, what shall we do now." A bold subordinate swallowed his saliva, and cautiously stepped forward to ask Deng Li.
