The judge and his entourage were startled and quickly grabbed their weapons from the bed. But before they could turn their guns around, several dark assault rifle barrels were already pointed at them from outside the door.
Hong Wentong's voice reached the ears of the people inside the room:
"You think it's great that you stole money from Dongxing?"
Chapter 167 Making the Judge Pledge of Allegiance, the Judge's Henchman Kills Chen Haonan
Faced with the dark muzzles of guns held by Hong Wentong and his gang, the judges had no time to resist.
Even if they move incredibly fast, can they be faster than a bullet?
So, although the judge gritted his teeth, he had no choice but to raise his hands in front of the gun. He was quickly disarmed by Hong Wentong and his men, who then tied him up with cable ties and stuffed him into a black van.
A short while later, Hong Wentong and his group brought Judge Kuangniu and his three companions to Xu Lang.
Looking at the judge, whose hands were bound behind his back and who had completely lost his previous arrogance, Xu Lang couldn't help but smile slightly.
"Weren't you guys very arrogant when you robbed my casino the other day?"
The judge glanced at Xu Lang, recognizing him as the leader of Tung Sing, then stood up, puffed out his chest, and loudly proclaimed:
"It was wrong of me to rob your gambling den, but I was the one who planned and orchestrated all of this. It has nothing to do with my three brothers. The grievances should be settled by the perpetrators, and you can just kill me!"
Xu Lang looked at him and said calmly:
"You are not afraid of death?"
The judge snorted:
"Losing your head is just a scar the size of a bowl, what's there to be afraid of! You'll be a hero again in eighteen years!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Lang suddenly sneered, grabbed a Black Star pistol from beside him, pulled the safety off, and pointed the muzzle at the judge's head.
Although the judge's expression changed, he still stood there with gritted teeth, showing no fear in his eyes.
Mad Bull, Chicken Essence, and Shrinking Bone turned pale with fright when they saw Xu Lang pointing a gun at the judge, and quickly said:
"Brother Lang, please don't kill my boss!"
"The money we stole is still at home; we haven't touched it much. We'll just return it to you!"
"Please, please don't kill my brother!"
Xu Lang gave Mad Bull and his two companions a cold look:
"If you want me to spare your elder brother, then the three of you will have to pay with your lives!"
Mad Bull immediately stepped forward:
"Brother Lang, just kill me! I owe Big Brother a lot over the years. If it weren't for him, I would have starved to death long ago!"
Chicken essence and bone shrinking products also stepped forward:
"Don't kill my older brother!"
Xu Lang said calmly:
"You guys are really loyal, why don't you all go down together!"
After saying that, he turned the gun around, pointed it at the judge's head, and suddenly pulled the trigger.
Snapped!
After the trigger was pulled, the pistol made a soft click, but there were no bullets inside.
The judge, who had already closed his eyes and awaited death, was startled when he heard the gun fire a blank. He opened his eyes and looked at Xu Lang.
But then they saw Xu Lang smiling and looking at them:
"You guys are really tough guys, and very loyal. I admire you!"
He casually tossed the pistol aside, turned and sat down, then gestured to Hong Wentong to untie the zip ties on the four judges' hands:
"You robbed Tung Sing's 097 gambling den, which humiliated me. If you want me to let this go, it's simple: join Tung Sing and become my underling, and all of this will be over!"
When the judge saw that Xu Lang not only didn't kill him, but also wanted him to join Dongxing, he felt relieved but also hesitated.
"I... I'm used to being free and independent, and I've never thought about taking anyone as my elder brother!"
Xu Lang smiled, picked up the pistol from the table again, removed the magazine, took out four bullets from the drawer, and carefully loaded them one by one into the magazine, saying as he did so:
"I'm not asking for your opinions; I'm only giving you two choices: either die or join me. The decision is yours!"
The judge was taken aback, then realized that Xu Lang was not joking this time. If he did not agree, the four bullets in the gun would likely be one for him and Kuang Niu and the others, and the four of them might really go down to eat corn together.
He turned to look at Mad Bull and the others.
The three members of Mad Bull looked at the judge with a mixture of pleading and hope.
Unlike before, Xu Lang has now given them a way out. If they still stubbornly refuse, they will simply be courting death.
The judge hesitated for a moment, then said:
"Okay, Brother Lang, I'll stick with you!"
Xu Lang smiled:
"That sounds a bit forced! Do you think joining Tung Sing is a bit of a stretch?"
He spoke as he continued loading bullets into his hands:
"I, Xu Lang, don't just take people in. Countless people want to become my disciples, but they never have the chance. Besides, to join Dongxing, you need to give a pledge of allegiance!"
After saying this, Xu Lang had already loaded the bullets. Suddenly, he turned the gun around, pointing the butt of the gun at the judge's face while keeping the muzzle in his own position.
"Go and offer a pledge of loyalty: rob Chan Ho-nam's gambling den in the Hung Hing triad!"
The judge looked at the pistol pushed in front of him, but did not move.
With the gun handle right in front of him, he could grab the pistol and shoot Xu Lang dead at any moment.
But the judge also knew that Xu Lang had his own reasons for daring to do this!
If he were to actually point a gun at Xu Lang, he wouldn't know how he would rewrite his own destiny.
Thinking of this, the judge suddenly felt a little discouraged. For many years, he had always thought that he was the most powerful person in the world, but he had never been so completely suppressed by Xu Lang in terms of both momentum and courage as he was today, with no ability to turn the tables at all!
After a moment of silence, the judge slowly picked up the pistol, tucked it into his waistband, and nodded to Xu Lang:
(acej)
"Okay, Brother Lang! I'll go with Kuang Niu and the others and get you a pledge of loyalty!"
……
A car sped toward Causeway Bay. The four people in the car remained silent the entire way, and the judge in the passenger seat had a cold expression and his eyes were full of frustration.
Mad Bull, while driving, secretly glanced at the judge, and after a while, couldn't help but say:
"Brother, agreeing to Xu Lang's offer is just a temporary measure. At worst, we can just take down Chen Haonan's casino and run away with the money!"
The judge said in a deep voice:
“Although I’m not a big boss in Hong Kong, and I do mostly freelance business, I always keep my word. I’ve already agreed to follow Xu Lang, and if I turn my back on him, wouldn’t I become a laughingstock in the underworld!”
Mad Bull thought for a moment and said:
"You can't say that. We were forced into this situation at gunpoint, and we had no choice but to agree to join Tung Sing with Xu Lang. After we rob Chen Haonan's gambling den and get the money, we can always run away to Southeast Asia. With our courage and skills, we'll be just as successful there!"
After hearing Mad Bull's words, the judge remained silent for a long while, took a deep drag on his cigarette, and then threw the cigarette butt out of the car.
"Let's take over Chan Ho-nam's place first! If we can really take over Chan Ho-nam's place this time, it will be a relief for Tsui Long, and we'll repay him for his kindness!"
Chicken Essence, who had been silent until now, laughed and said:
"That's right, Brother is right! Although Xu Lang let us off the hook, we still managed to steal Chen Haonan's territory, so we've avenged him and repaid his favor! We'll just take the money and run away!"
Shrinking Bones also said:
"That's right, boss! Let's rob Chan Ho-nam's place, grab the money, and run away from Hong Kong Island. Then the four of us brothers will still be together, living a carefree and happy life!"
Upon hearing this, the judge no longer hesitated and secretly resolved to rob Chen Haonan's place, get the money, and then run away to Southeast Asia with Mad Bull and his gang.
Soon, the four of them drove to Causeway Bay.
Chan Ho-nam's gambling den was located in a small alley in Causeway Bay, in a very secluded and hidden location. The judges parked their car at the entrance of the alley, put on hoods, grabbed their weapons, and quickly walked towards the gambling den.
When the two Hung Hing henchmen saw the four men approaching, they immediately became alert. When the four men got closer, the two Hung Hing henchmen were startled when they saw that they were all wearing hoods. They were about to draw their knives from their waists, but Judge and Mad Bull raised their gun butts and smashed them to the ground.
When Suogu looked down, he saw that the two Hung Hing underlings had already been knocked unconscious, so he simply left them aside without tying them up.
The four men continued with their assigned tasks: Shrinking Bone stayed outside as lookout, while Judge, Mad Bull Chicken Essence, and two others went inside to rob the money.
The three judges entered Chan Ho-nam's place and found that there were far fewer tables than at Tung Sing Casino, and only a few dozen gamblers were playing inside. They couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
With so few people, they certainly couldn't rob much money! When the few Hung Hing henchmen saw the judge and his men with their heads covered and guns in hand, they turned pale with fright and didn't dare to draw their knives to stop them.
The judge ordered Mad Bull to point his gun at everyone present, while he himself grabbed a shotgun and rushed into the accounting office to collect the money.
But when the judge arrived at the accounting office, he discovered that there was only one junior employee in charge of the accounts, and all the money was locked in a safe, which the junior employee did not know the combination to.
The judge was immediately enraged and gave the Hung Hing henchman a severe beating:
"Damn it, you're in charge of the accounting office and you don't even know the password? Do you think I'll believe you?"
This Hung Hing underling was beaten until he cried out like a wolf:
"Brother, I really don't know. This cabinet is guarded by Shanji, Baopi, and Chaopi in shifts. They come here every day to collect money, and I really don't know the password!"
Chan Ho-nam only trusted Chicken, Bao Pi, and Tai Tin Yee. Although the other underlings managed the accounts, they didn't know the safe's combination. Even though the judge beat one of the underlings so badly he couldn't get up, the safe's combination was still not obtained.
Just then, Chan Ho-nam and his men walked towards the casino from Causeway Bay.
It's already 3 a.m., and Chen Haonan comes over to collect debts every day at this time.
Seeing the van the judges had parked at the alley entrance, Chan Ho-nam couldn't help but feel a little puzzled:
"Why is there a car parked here!"
Da Tian Er said nonchalantly:
"Who cares? I'll just get two of my buddies to smash him up later!"
As they spoke, the group walked into the alley.
