School Beauty's Invincible Martial Expert-Chapter 319 - : Searching for Evidence

Chapter 319: Chapter 319: Searching for Evidence

“Hanmen Restaurant?!” Fang Hao raised his eyebrows.

“Yes!” The boy nodded, saying, “By crushing Yujian Restaurant, Hanmen Restaurant would then monopolize the catering business in University Town. Plus, I heard that Hanmen Restaurant has already rented the place that used to house Yujian Restaurant and plans to set up a huge hotel—seems they’re thinking of creating a large theme hotel.”

“Damn it!” Fang Hao, upon hearing this, flew into a rage, “I’m going to settle accounts with them!”

“Wait!” The boy hastily stopped Fang Hao and said, “We’re just speculating. Do you have any evidence?”

“It’s already so obvious,” Fang Hao grew agitated.

“Everything requires evidence!” The boy said coldly with a smile, then added, “Without evidence, it’s all just conjecture. It doesn’t count as truth. If you really want to settle the score, you should gather evidence first.”

“Damn, it’s gotten to this point, how am I supposed to gather evidence!” Fang Hao exploded in anger, itching to confront Xiao Han right there and then. But without evidence, who would take him seriously? Fang Hao, though impulsive, understood the gravity of the situation. After a long moment, he said, “Looks like I need to find a way to get that evidence.”

“Right!”

“Once I have the evidence, I won’t have to worry about them denying it.”

“Haozi, when collecting the evidence, be sure not to tip them off!”

The crowd advised earnestly.

Fang Hao nodded, but a comprehensive plan had already formed in his mind. To find the evidence, he needed to figure out how to locate those who had been poisoned. Those guys had already recovered and been discharged from the hospital. Looking for them now might be like searching for a needle in the ocean, but it was better than not searching at all.

……

On the other side.

On the third floor of Hanmen Restaurant, Big Fatty was staying there with a few brothers for the past few days. Next to the general manager’s office, there were a few spare rooms, usually used for storage. Now they had cleared them out and brought in a few beds from the second-hand market.

“Big Fatty, when are we going back?” one of the brothers asked curiously, “We’ve been here for several days now. Even if we don’t go back, we should at least go out for a walk, find a place to have some fun!”

“Fun what?!” Big Fatty glared at them and said, “It’s a critical time now. Fang Hao might be searching for you guys all over the world. If he finds you, he’ll definitely torture you for information—hey, hey … what about being scorched, sitting on a tiger bench, having chili water poured on you … Can you guys endure that?”

“Er…” The few brothers looked stunned, turning pale with fear.

Indeed, how could they justify bankrupting someone’s restaurant with their act? Even the police station was no longer handling this matter, and Fang Hao was probably going crazy by now. No one knew what kind of methods he would resort to.

“Now you understand how serious this is, right?” Big Fatty asked coldly.

“Umm…” The brothers hurriedly nodded; one of them said, “Big Fatty, perhaps we should head back to Linjiang City. That’s our turf, at least we have some control there. This place is hopeless. If something goes wrong, no one will support us here.”

Big Fatty chuckled, then said, “What are you afraid of? Do you know the saying, ‘The most dangerous place is the safest place’?”

“Yes, yes,” They all nodded in agreement.

Just then, Xiao Han walked in.

“Big brother!” They all jumped up from their beds.

Big Fatty quickly smiled and said, “Xiao Han, what brings you here?”

“You guys have been here a few days, didn’t you think I would come to check on you?” Xiao Han brought in some cigarettes, all premium brands, costing a thousand yuan each, and distributed one to each person. Xiao Han smiled, “Brothers, thank you for your hard work.”

“Not at all, not at all!” they quickly shook their heads.

Xiao Han smiled and said, “Thanks to you guys, I was able to bring down Yujian Restaurant. You can go back to Linjiang City tomorrow. Staying here will only make you anxious.”

“Sure!” They all nodded, eager to return as their hearts were filled with urgency. Now that Xiao Han had given the word, they were naturally very happy.

“Xiao Han, there’s no need for us here anymore?” Big Fatty asked curiously.

“Yeah, no need,” Xiao Han shook his head and said, “Now that the rival is down, Hanmen Restaurant has completely monopolized the catering in University Town. From now on, we can run our business smoothly.”

“Aren’t you worried they’ll regroup and come back?” Big Fatty asked curiously.

“Not worried!” Xiao Han grinned and said, “If they want to come back at us, it won’t be easy for them.”

“That’s true,” Li Dapang nodded, saying, “A company that has completely lost its image trying to stand up again is far from easy.”

The next day, Li Dapang left the provincial city with several brothers and headed back to Linjiang City.

……

Fang Hao had people searching everywhere for those guys, but after several days, they couldn’t find the slightest trace. The few who had been poisoned in his restaurant and ended up in the hospital seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

“How is it going, did you find the records from the hospital?” Fang Hao had specifically asked someone to check the hospital records for those guys.

“Checked, but they’re all fake!” A man in black clothes sat on the sofa opposite Fang Hao.

“Fuck, so you’re saying, all this was a setup?!” Fang Hao said, his face filled with anger.

“Yes!” The man in black nodded, saying, “All of this seems to be a setup, and from start to finish, you had no clue.”

“Shit.” Fang Hao grew more anxious, he gritted his teeth and said, “Bastard, who the hell is doing this behind my back!”

“All I can tell you is that Xiao Han recently took over your restaurant,” the man in black chuckled coldly, “They plan to expand the hotel, refurbish it, and integrate it into a larger hotel. Heh, now do you understand?”

“You mean to say, all this is Xiao Han screwing things up behind the scenes?!” Fang Hao asked coldly.

“Yes!” The man in black nodded.

Fang Hao squinted his eyes, saying, “I’ve always thought so too, but, lacking evidence, a thing without evidence means nothing to anyone.”

“Actually, since we know it’s Xiao Han doing it, why even bother looking for evidence?” The man in black smirked, “We’re not police who need evidence to solve a case. We just need to know who is behind it. Grab them and give them a harsh torture, I bet they won’t keep quiet.”

“Hmm, that makes sense!” Fang Hao nodded.

The man in black’s mouth curled up into a sinister smile, saying, “Boss Fang, when do you think we should act?”

“We don’t need to take action, someone else will,” Fang Hao said.

“Who?!” The man in black asked, puzzled.

“Just rest assured,” Fang Hao chuckled.

……

Fang Hao and Liu Hao had already reached a kind of cooperative agreement. They were now acting in concert because they had a common opponent — Xiao Han. As long as Xiao Han was taken down, everything else would be easier. The Hanmen Restaurant could be dealt with opportunely, making everything smooth.

Liu Hao had already thought of a way to deal with Xiao Han. It was nothing more than teaming up with Dao Ye and then taking care of Xiao Han.

Who is Dao Ye? Dao Ye was a heavy hitter in the underworld of the provincial city, an unrivaled figure there. Even government officials had to give him three points of courtesy when meeting him. Dao Ye was a giant not only in the underworld but also had influence in the legitimate world. To many, Dao Ye was the quintessential underworld boss. Many held him in awe.

Dao Ye owned many businesses in the provincial city and had entrenched himself there for decades, developing many industries, from real estate to entertainment clubs, from entertainment clubs to chain hotels… Although Dao Ye wasn’t well-versed in business, he was definitely a force to be reckoned with. Not only influential but also exceedingly powerful. His real estate was flourishing, leveraging his power in the provincial city, he had secured several excellent locations, built many buildings, and made a fortune.

The entertainment clubs under him were money-magnet sites, harboring all sorts of seediness and attracting countless men. Everyone in the provincial city knew that Dao Ye’s places were the safest — no one dared to inspect them, and no one dared to interfere. Moreover, the girls in Dao Ye’s places were all very beautiful; no one knew where Dao Ye found so many top-grade beauties to work there.

Liu Hao drove to an entertainment club on Central Road.

The entrance was crowded with people, who, from their appearances, were a bunch of delinquents. These people had multicolored dyed hair, nose rings, and wore bizarre clothes. In Liu Hao’s eyes, these people were completely out of place compared to him. Liu Hao got out of his Mercedes in a neat suit, brushing off some dust from it, and glanced disdainfully at these people before brushing past them.

“Fuck, what are you looking at!” The leader, a young man with yellow hair, was immediately displeased and stared at Liu Hao.

Liu Hao stopped in his tracks, looked at him puzzled, and then pointing at himself, asked, “Are you talking to me?!”

“That’s right,” the young man with yellow hair pointed at Liu Hao and then said, “Old man, I’m talking to you. What about it?”

“Interesting!” Liu Hao laughed, asking curiously, “Why would you talk to me like that?”

“Fuck, you just looked at us with disdain, that’s looking down on us,” the young man with yellow hair glared at Liu Hao. By then, the other delinquents had also gathered around.

Liu Hao was not at all nervous, but rather found it amusing as he asked, “A person has to have something respectable for others to respect him. You lot, with all your low-lifeness, what right do you have to be respected by me?!”

The leader, the young man with yellow hair, upon hearing this, could hardly believe that someone would dare speak to him so disrespectfully at the entrance to a wealthy club. The young man with yellow hair was astounded as he looked at Liu Hao: “Kid, I’ll give you one chance to take back what you just said, kneel down and kowtow to us a few times, and we’ll let you go!”
