Chapter 217: Chapter 0217: Three Maps

"Qin Yang!" Liu Yue cried out in alarm, directly squeezing past the foreigners into the room.

"Ms. Liu!" Lin Dong called out, but it was too late, Liu Yue had already entered. He gritted his teeth and eventually followed her into the room.

"Bang—"

Just as they entered the room, the door was slammed shut with a bang.

"You—" Lin Dong frowned, just as he was about to turn and open the door, a metallic scraping sound suddenly rang from behind him.

"Kid, I suggest you turn around and look before attempting to open the door. There are plenty of little darlings greeting you!"

Lin Dong’s body stiffened for a moment, slowly turning his head, and as he clearly saw the scene in front of him, cold sweat instantly streamed down.

Dozens of dark crossbow arrows were aimed at him simultaneously, arrows already nocked, their metal tips reflecting a brilliant gleam under the light.

"Damn it, Qin Yang, this time it seems you’ve gotten me killed!"

"Wuu wuu wuu—" From a distance, Qin Yang was still sobbing, his face a mix of blue and purple, blood still dripping from his nose: "Dong Gua, cousin, these people are inhumane, they beat me to death!"

"Okay, I don’t like superfluous words." The blond man sitting on the couch stood up and approached Lin Dong: "You can call me Carl. We came here just to make money and not to kill. As long as you cooperate well, I guarantee you will all leave here alive. Now, please take out all the communication devices you have on you. Remember, all of them."

Having said that, Carl’s smile suddenly turned cold: "Dan Lun, search him!"

"What are you doing!" Liu Yue screamed as her phone and other items were thrown onto the floor, even her coat was ripped apart.

Just as the black man named Dan Lun, a big man, was about to pick up Liu Yue with laughter, Carl suddenly rebuked: "Enough, Dan Lun, there will be time for your enjoyment tonight but not now. Our operation absolutely must not have any mishaps, do you understand?"

Carl seemed to have an unmatched deterrent force within the group; the seemingly very strong black man, Dan Lun, shuddered slightly at Carl’s rebuke and honestly let go of Liu Yue, stepping back.

Lin Dong also couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Alright kid, now let’s move on to the main topic." Carl pulled out a piece of paper and a pen: "I know you’ve been to the third-floor banquet hall, so please draw me a map of the banquet hall, including the distribution of people. Of course, if there’s other information, it’d be best to mark it all down. If I have to ask it out of you, your end will be very grim."

"What exactly do you want?" Lin Dong honestly took the paper and pen, unable to hold back his question.

"Kid, didn’t your parents teach you to ask less and do more? In your Huaxia, there’s a saying: the more you know, the faster you die, right?" Carl chuckled and picked up a glass of red wine to slowly savor.

"I—actually I’ve never been in the banquet hall. I was chased down by the security as soon as I reached the third floor!" Lin Dong said to Carl, nervously whispering.

"Oh, let’s hear it!" Carl exclaimed dramatically, pointing at Lin Dong: "You say you’ve never been in the banquet hall? What else? You were up there for at least half an hour."

"I—" Lin Dong found himself at a loss for words; that half-hour was actually spent arguing with the security, though probably Carl wouldn’t believe it even if he explained exactly that.

"Okay, seems like you need a bit of encouragement, kid!" After saying this, Carl waved his hand.

A person behind him nodded understandingly, walked up next to Qin Yang, and pulled the trigger.

"Puff—" A metal crossbow arrow shot directly into Qin Yang’s shoulder.

"Ow—" Qin Yang screamed loudly.

At that moment, the person had already moved to Qin Yang’s right side, ready to shoot the crossbow arrow in.

"Enough, I’ll draw, I’ll draw!" Lin Dong quickly shouted.

"Good kid, that’s more like it. I don’t want to see blood," Carl nodded in satisfaction and sat back down on the couch.

Liu Yue anxiously watched Lin Dong from the side; she knew that Lin Dong really hadn’t been inside the banquet hall.

Lin Dong gritted his teeth and started to draw on the paper, completely relying on his imagination. Fortunately, having been a swindler for many years, he was very good at deceiving; his thoughtful expression while drawing was mimicked to perfection, even the map itself looked impeccable to those who had never been to the banquet hall.

Soon, the map was complete and handed over to Carl.

Carl nodded: "Good, draw another one!"

This foreigner was definitely cautious, Lin Dong complained inwardly.

However, he had anticipated this while drawing the map, so he memorized everything and drew three identical maps, even the details were exactly the same.

"Very good!" Carl nodded and took out three white pills from his inner pocket: "I keep my word; I won’t take your lives. Let them swallow these three pills."

Soon after, the three people who swallowed the pills all fell into a coma.

"Alright, guys, get ready for our feast!"

......

Shortly after the others left, Lin Dong suddenly squinted his eyes to make sure they had indeed left, then hurriedly got up, clutching his throat and started vomiting vigorously.

When he swallowed the pills earlier, he had blocked the pills with his throat so that nothing looked amiss.

"Ugh—" Finally, the white pill was vomited out.

However, since the pill had melted a bit, Lin Dong was already feeling dizzy and weak. Nevertheless, he gritted his teeth and forced himself to leave the room.

"Hurry and find Mr. Chu... Ah, Ancient Martial Artists, I hope you are as formidable as the rumors claim!"

......

The banquet was in full swing when Chu Ge found an excuse to leave the banquet hall, having found Nangong Man Sha’s antics truly unbearable.

However, what Chu Ge didn’t expect was that Nangong Man Sha followed him out, and of course, the two old men were still trailing far behind.

"Mr. Chu, why are you so afraid of me? Am I a flood or a savage beast? Afraid that I might eat you up?" Nangong Man Sha followed behind Chu Ge, covering her mouth and giggling lightly.

"Why did you follow me out?" Chu Ge turned his head, looking at Nangong Man Sha standing behind him, his brows furrowing.

Hearing this, Nangong Man Sha instead covered her heart, displaying an extremely aggrieved expression: "Oh dear, I was just worried about Mr. Chu, so I came out to check on him. I didn’t expect that not only do you not appreciate it, you actually...I—"

Her words were cut short by someone interrupting: "Mr... Mr. Chu?"
