Chapter 1584: Perfect Resolution
After finishing the company’s affairs, Murong Hai immediately targeted the two escapees, Zhang Qiang and Li Dong.
Xu Ke was very satisfied with Murong Hai’s quick handling.
Originally, he intended for Murong Hai to rest for two days, but Murong Hai couldn’t sit still for even a moment.
Without dealing with Zhang Qiang and Li Dong, the two escapees, his mind was never at ease.
In the following days, Murong Hai was busy secretly investigating Zhang Qiang and Li Dong.
No one knew what was up with the two of them; since the last incident, they hadn’t returned to the company.
Xu Ke once sent someone to inquire and received the answer that both had fallen seriously ill at the same time and were resting at home.
Since they had spoken to this extent, Xu Ke naturally had no reason to say more.
However, he didn’t believe these two old foxes would stay quietly at home for long.
He had already arranged for someone to investigate secretly, and indeed, Zhang Qiang and Li Dong were active behind the scenes lately.
The data Murong Hai received were from Xu Ke’s previous investigations, clearly indicating their territory and current locations.
In doing such things, Murong Hai was an expert.
It’s important to know that he used to work for a security company, often taking on challenging tasks privately.
Zhang Qiang and Li Dong were not of great concern to Murong Hai.
The reason he hadn’t acted was that Murong Hai was waiting for a perfect opportunity.
The moment he acts, although he can catch both fish in one net, some might still escape.
To act thoroughly and cleanly, Murong Hai would not allow any surprise under his watch.
Recently, Zhang Qiang has had smooth sailing; with no news from Wang Lishan, Zhang felt more complacent.
Zhang Qiang hadn’t originally planned to touch the factory in South Suburb, but with Wang Lishan missing, he couldn’t resist the temptation.
Thus, he joined forces with Li Dong to include the South Suburb factory into their territory.
Murong Hai had been monitoring the South Suburb factory for some time.
He was already well aware of Zhang Qiang and Li Dong’s actions.
Using this opportunity, he had his men blend into their ranks long ago.
In just a few days, his men had climbed from the lowest rank to the second in command within the organization.
Based on the latest intel from his men, Zhang Qiang’s next target is the nightclub in North Suburb.
Due to Wang Lishan’s downfall, all his assets were transferred to Xu Ke.
But Xu Ke wasn’t in a hurry to take over; he wanted to see how things would unfold.
No one had overseen the North Suburb nightclub for a long time, causing unrest among the people there.
Several leaders had long wanted to defect to Zhang Qiang but hadn’t had the chance, leaving the matter unsettled.
Upon receiving this information, Murong Hai immediately sent people to take control of the nightclub.
The nightclub boss was bewildered by Murong Hai’s sudden appearance.
However, he quickly recognized Murong Hai, who was quite famous in the underground circles.
"Iron Hand, don’t blame me. Everyone covets this piece of meat, and I’m just passing by."
Murong Hai had never paid much attention to the nightclub boss.
Though Iron Hand was unconvinced, he knew he wasn’t a match for Murong Hai.
In just half a day, Murong Hai had Iron Hand’s men fully under control.
Most of his men betrayed him, leaving him truly isolated.
"Murong Hai, I admit defeat at your hands! I’ve always been straight-talking; since you’ve taken over my territory, you’re my boss from now on."
Iron Hand was a genuine man, accepting the situation when knowing the tide had turned against him.
Murong Hai wasn’t interested in managing these assets, as eventually, they would all belong to Xu Ke.
His current actions were solely against Zhang Qiang and Li Dong.
Because of the nightclub’s unique geographic location, it wouldn’t be possible for them to take it over quickly.
Murong Hai exploited Iron Hand’s mistake to create an opportunity.
Hence, when Zhang Qiang and Li Dong attempt to capture the nightclub, they will have to deploy most of their base’s forces.
That’s when their base will be empty, providing Murong Hai the perfect opportunity to act, catching both old foxes in one fell swoop.
For days, Zhang Qiang and Li Dong had been planning how to capture the North Suburb nightclub.
After deliberation, they decided to bring most of their men over.
Due to the nightclub’s unique location, people from everywhere gather here.
If they capture the nightclub, their future prosperity is assured.
On a dark, windy night, according to their plan, Zhang Qiang and Li Dong arrived at the nightclub with their men.
Murong Hai, already informed, had his brothers lie in ambush.
Meanwhile, as soon as Zhang Qiang and Li Dong left their base, Murong Hai had Xu Ke dispatch people there.
Murong Hai’s men were limited, so he had to rely on Xu Ke’s help.
Xu Ke was very experienced, having secured all their territories even before Zhang Qiang and Li Dong arrived at the nightclub.
When Zhang Qiang and Li Dong arrived confidently at the nightclub, they were dismayed to find themselves surrounded.
Zhang Qiang immediately realized they must have been betrayed, but regretting now was pointless.
Despite their best efforts, they were ultimately captured alive by Murong Hai.
Seeing Murong Hai, Zhang Qiang and Li Dong immediately understood.
Rumors about Murong Hai had already spread, that he sided with Xu Ke and became his favorite.
It was clear this operation was orchestrated by Xu Ke.
Full of regret, Zhang Qiang and Li Dong realized their hard work ultimately benefited others.
Eventually, the two escapees were effortlessly dealt with by Murong Hai.
