Chapter 1313 — Destroying the Underground Boxing Ring
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Of course, within the ring, only Xiao Luozi, Dr. Yin and the late Master Li had ever known An Liwen's identity. No one else had ever laid eyes on him or even knew that he existed — and precisely for that reason, extricating himself was child's play for An Liwen.
"Xiao Luozi, the rest is in your hands. Dr. Yin and I are pulling out first!" After a moment's deliberation, An Liwen decided to abandon the place. Over these past weeks he had raked in a handsome fortune from the underground ring — it was more than enough. When the time came to let go, one had to let go.
"Rest easy, Young Master Wen — I know what to do."
Xiao Luozi gritted his teeth and said with firm resolve, "Hurry, Young Master Wen — you and the doctor get out of here!"
But at that very moment Xiao Luozi's phone rang again. Not daring to delay, he snatched it up at once — yet as he listened to the voice on the other end, the color drained from his face.
"What is it?" An Liwen saw that Xiao Luozi's expression was not quite right and hurriedly asked.
"Young Master Wen, it's worse — the police have completely encircled the underground ring. I'm afraid you and Dr. Yin have no way out." Xiao Luozi said, "We can only activate Plan Two."
"Good — then we move fast." An Liwen nodded, his decision instant. "Before the police break in, call a halftime pause in the bout and swap me and Dr. Yin into the ring..."
Qiu Lingshan, having deployed every last officer and satisfied herself that no one inside the ring could escape even on wings, at once barked the order: "Liu Wangli, take a squadron and come in with me to apprehend the suspects!"
"Yes! Captain Song!" Liu Wangli acknowledged the order and immediately mustered his men, falling in behind Qiu Lingshan.
The main doors were flung open without warning, and Qiu Lingshan led a whole company of officers rushing into the underground ring! Of course, what Qiu Lingshan did not know was that thugs had always patrolled the entrance — but lest she grow wary or suspicious, Xiao Luozi had already ordered the thugs at the door to withdraw quietly.
Otherwise, seeing guards posted at the entrance, Qiu Lingshan would certainly not have bothered spending time deploying her forces. She would have charged straight up, seized the thugs at the door and stormed into the underground ring — leaving An Liwen and Dr. Yin no time at all to set anything up.
"Nobody move — we are police! Spectators, do not act rashly. Remain seated where you are, and do not attempt to flee or resist!" Rushing inside, Qiu Lingshan spoke into a megaphone to the crowd in the stands.
The spectators, suddenly seeing police burst into the underground ring, jumped in fright. Some naturally thought of making a run for it at once — but on hearing Qiu Lingshan's words, and seeing the armed officers behind her, the idea was promptly snuffed out.
After all, they were merely spectators, come to watch the bouts and bet on the fights. The underground ring had nothing to do with them, so their punishment would hardly be severe. One by one, these people sat back down meekly.
And at that very moment, on the ring itself, a boxer wearing a green mask suddenly let out a great cry...
