Chapter 1637: I Was the One Who Set the Fire
“The Goldenhawk Gang?” Yang Ming sarcastically laughed, “If it’s really the Goldenhawk Gang, then there should be no more problems.”
“Oh? Right, how did I forget? You are Uncle Sun San’s friend. He should have already greeted the Goldenhawk Gang beforehand,” Pu Daniu came to a realization. “With the presence of Uncle Sun San, the Goldenhawk Gang shouldn’t cause any troubles over such a small matter.”
“Greeted?” Yang Ming smiled lightly, “I did greet them indeed. However, their underlings are mostly dead.”
Yang Ming did not have to hide this matter. After all, even if he could hide it for a while, he wouldn’t be able to hide it forever. Because of this, Yang Ming decided to just tell Pu Daniu about what had happened. First of all, he could let Pu Daniu owe him one. It was apparent that Pu Daniu was uncomfortable with the Goldenhawk Gang’s existence in Bianhai City. He received too many restrictions. Because of this, Pu Daniu obviously wanted to see the Goldenhawk Gang annihilated.
Secondly, Yang Ming wanted to intimidate Pu Daniu a little, or to be more precise, his underlings. Yang Ming was introduced here by Sun San, and the relationship between him and Pu Daniu seemed very close. However, nobody could guarantee that Pu Daniu would not change his mindset under the temptation of benefits. This was what Yang Ming was worried about. He was worried that Pu Daniu would make an unwise decision and cause some troubles.
Although Yang Ming didn’t mind these troubles, he still had to rely on Pu Daniu’s help to go to Russia.
“Mostly dead?” Pu Daniu was slightly shocked for a moment. Suddenly, he stared at Yang Ming with a face full of doubt. Although Pu Daniu was a rough person, he could vaguely make out something from Yang Ming’s words. However, he was unsure of what Yang Ming truly meant. After all, Yang Ming was only introduced here by Uncle Sun San. Although Uncle Sun San was his savior, it was the first time that Pu Daniu and Yang Ming met up with each other. He really did not get what Yang Ming meant when he said: “they’re mostly dead”.
“Da Niu, you and I are on the same side. I shall not hide anything from you.” Yang Ming said with a straight face, “Do you know why I’m going to Meitena Town this time?”
“Old Li, you must be joking. How can I guess your aim in going there?” Pu Daniu’s face turned serious. He knew that Yang Ming was going to talk about some secret matters, but he did not refuse to listen. Instead, he waved his hand to signal the glasses-wearing man who brought Yang Ming in to leave first.
The glasses-wearing man was Pu Daniu’s confidant. How could he not understand what Pu Daniu meant? He smiled lightly and said, “Brother Niu, Mr. Li, you guys talk first. I still have to take care of business. Sorry, I shall take my leave first!”
“En, you go ahead first. We won’t be needing you here for a while. I will summon you if there’s anything.” Pu Daniu nodded his head without changing his expression and said, “Old Li, to be honest with you, our department store is just being managed by some rookies. It must always be protected. Do you mind?”
“Why would I? Brother, go do your stuff first. We’ll chat for a while,” Yang Ming laughed and gave Pu Daniu a way to extricate himself from the awkward situation.
After the man wearing glasses left, Pu Daniu’s face turned serious and said, “Old Li, you can now tell me what’s the matter.”
“Hehe. Actually, there’s no problem with him hearing this conversation. After all, my aim this time is no private matter.” Yang Ming did not care about it and smiled amiably. “Da Niu, the main reason why I want to go to Meitena Town this time is to find trouble with the Blackhawk Gang.”
“You… want to find trouble with the Blackhawk Gang?” After hearing what Yang Ming said, Pu Daniu let out a shocked scream. When Pu Daniu mentioned the Goldenhawk Gang from before, Yang Ming’s attitude was a little ambiguous. After that, when Yang Ming immediately talked about his reason for going to Meitena Town, Pu Daniu could already vaguely guess the relationship between the two matters even if he was dim-witted.
However, from Pu Daniu’s point of view, the Goldenhawk Gang was already a very strong existence. After all, they were a branch of the international gang involved in drug dealing. Besides, they possessed firearms. Because of this, Pu Daniu did not think that Yang Ming was daring enough to find trouble with the Blackhawk Gang.
Now that Yang Ming had told him about his aim, Pu Daniu was a little confused. Although he felt that Yang Ming did not have any need to lie to him, he also did not believe that Yang Ming dared to find troubles with the Blackhawk Gang by himself.
“What’s wrong? Brother Daniu does not think I am capable of doing so?” Yang Ming smiled lightly and asked indifferently.
“That’s not it!” Pu Daniu was not someone who would say these words to offend. He shook his head and said, “I was just too shocked for a moment; I am unable to accept it.”
“Hehe. I have already been to the Goldenhawk Gang that Brother Daniu mentioned before. Isn’t it that Goldenhawk International Logistics Company by the dock?” Yang Ming smiled, “Now, I want to congratulate Brother Daniu. This dock will be yours to rule from now on. As for that Goldenhawk Gang, they’re already done for.”
“Already done for?” Pu Daniu had already guessed the truth beforehand. It was impossible for Yang Ming to find trouble with the Blackhawk Gang without any aim. If this was the case, then how could Yang Ming let go of a branch of the Blackhawk Gang that easily? However, before it was confirmed, Pu Daniu dared not be certain even if he had guessed it. However, now that Yang Ming had confirmed it with him, Pu Daniu was sure that Yang Ming had already found trouble with the Goldenhawk Gang.
Yang Ming smiled slightly, “Brother Daniu, you will probably get wind of it very soon.”
Just after Yang Ming had finished speaking, a rushed series of footsteps could be heard outside of the room. The voice of the man wearing glasses sounded as well, “Brother Niu, something has happened!”
Pu Daniu’s facial expression changed after hearing the voice of the man wearing glasses. Although he was a little angry at the man wearing glasses’ attitude, he knew that he would not run here in such a panic if the matter wasn’t serious.
“What is it? Why are you shouting?” Pu Daniu’s face was displeased. He vaguely felt that something was not right. It seemed as if this matter had something to do with the Yang Ming in front of him. Seeing Yang Ming’s deep smile, Pu Daniu was even more certain.
“Brother Niu, something big has happened! The Goldenhawk Logistics company is on fire!” The man wearing glasses ran into the room. His face was filled with both nervousness and gloating. “The firetruck is already rushing there. However, according to the news of the brothers stationed by the dock, the Goldenhawk Logistics has already been burnt until nothing remains… As for the people inside, if there were any, I’m afraid…”
“Oh? Is this real?” Pu Daniu stared at the glasses-wearing man in doubt., This news was too great for him. If the Goldenhawk Gang really had any problems, then it would be very good news.
“There should be nothing wrong. Although I did not see it myself, I could still hear the sound of the firetruck clearly!” The man wearing glasses said, “This time, the Goldenhawk Gang is really unfortunate. Hehe, even if they did not die, they will still suffer a big loss.
“How did it catch on fire?” Pu Daniu looked at Yang Ming. However, he did not really believe it. Even if the fire was really set by Yang Ming, the opposite party were not idiots. They would not simply look at Yang Ming setting up the fire. Besides, not only did they not put out the fire, but they also let the fire slowly grow bigger. This was a little unreasonable.
“You don’t have to guess anymore. I was the one who set that fire,” Yang Ming’s face was plain as he said, “Just before I came here.”
“Is this true? Old Li, you really did it?” After hearing Yang Ming admit to it, he finally believed that Yang Ming was related to the Goldenhawk Logistics going up in flames.
Yang Ming nodded, “I went to ask them about some information I wanted to know. After that, I killed everyone inside and burned down the building.”
“Killed everyone!” Pu Daniu’s eyes widened. He stared at Yang Ming in disbelief, “Old Li, who exactly are you? You killed everyone? Everyone in the Goldenhawk Gang is a proficient fire. Besides, they have guns…”
“Guns? I did collect some of them. Since you mentioned it, I might as well give them to you.” Yang Ming threw a plastic bag in front of Pu Daniu. Inside were all the firearms taken from the Goldenhawk Logistics.
“Give them to me?!” Pu Daniu’s eyes glowed after he heard Yang Ming’s words. His eyes widened, “Old Li, are you serious?”
“What’s there to be serious about?” Yang Ming shrugged, “I have no use for this stuff at all. Do you want them or not? If not, I’ll just throw them into the sea later.”
Yang Ming was telling the truth. To him, these trashy guns meant nothing. Old Buffon’s firearms were even more advanced, and yet Yang Ming did not care about them at all.
However, Yang Ming underestimated the attraction these items brought to Pu Daniu and his underlings. Right now, it wasn’t just Pu Daniu. Even the man wearing glasses beside him had both envy and shock written on his face.

“Old Li, you’re too kind!” Pu Daniu took the bag in Yang Ming’s hands with excitement. His tone had even changed a little, “The people that Uncle Sun San introduce are all generous like him. You’re all good people!”
Yang Ming was a little speechless. This Pu Daniu was a little too emotional. However, these kinds of people were easier to mingle with. After all, they were very straightforward and had no ill intentions. Yang Ming could relax around him.
Pu Daniu extended his hand into the bag. After he took a look inside, he retrieved Lukowski’s gun and said, “Such an advanced gun! This is good stuff!”
As he was talking, Pu Daniu placed the gun in front of him and appreciated it with pleasure. After that, he couldn’t control himself and gave it a kiss.
Yang Ming’s face twitched twice upon seeing Pu Daniu’s actions. He clearly knew about this gun’s usage. At that time, he was so disgusted that he almost vomited. Now, Pu Daniu was using his mouth to kiss it… Yang Ming was impressed. No wonder he’s called Pu Daniu, he really is a big cow [1]! He’s too dope!”
Yang Ming hesitated for a while, but did not tell Pu Daniu about the original use of the gun. He only said, “Alright, Daniu, keep everything first. You better not take this stuff out for the next few days. If not, someone will be able to identify the gun and relate you with the annihilation of the Goldenhawk Gang.”
“I understand, I understand! Brother Old Li, don’t worry. I won’t give you any troubles. Even if someone really recognized it, I will definitely not involve you in the matter!” Pu Daniu patted his chest and guaranteed. After that, he told the man wearing glasses, “Did you hear it?”
“Brother Niu, Mr. Li, I don’t know anything!” The man wearing glasses quickly assured.
Yang Ming smiled lightly. He was not afraid of Pu Daniu or the man wearing glasses spouting out anything. However, he felt a little uncomfortable seeing how Pu Daniu was kissing, dancing around and hugging Lukowski’s gun with such enthusiasm. Because of that, he simply found a reason to let him keep the gun.
Pu Daniu reluctantly placed the gun back into the bag. After that, he handed it over to the man wearing glasses and signaled him to keep it.
The man wearing glasses obediently ran out after he took the bag. As for whether the man wearing glasses would place the gun on his mouth to kiss and hug it like Pu Daniu, it wouldn’t be Yang Ming’s problem anymore. At the very least, if he doesn’t see it, he won’t be bothered by it.
After the man wearing glasses left, Pu Daniu whispered carefully, “Mr. Li, you came here from Song Jiang, right? Could it be related to the Blackhawk Gang threatening the Song Jiang police with that kidnapping?”
“Do you suspect that I am a Song Jiang Policeman?” Yang Ming stared at Pu Daniu with an ambiguous smile.
“This- Mr. Li, don’t be angry! Just pretend that I did not say anything.” Seeing Yang Ming’s facial expression, Pu Daniu was frightened. In his heart, he started thinking. Did I ask something that I shouldn’t have asked?
He thought about Yang Ming’s gruesome methods in handling the Goldenhawk Gang. He thought about how everyone had become a ghost, and how even the logistics building had turned to ashes. His heart was filled with fear.
If Yang Ming is really with the police, wouldn’t it be inappropriate for him to know my business? However, if Yang Ming isn’t with the police, then wouldn’t many problems arise if I leaked the news about how he killed so many people in one go?
Because of this, Pu Daniu started to feel afraid. He was afraid that Yang Ming would kill him out of anger to prevent him from leaking the news.
Yang Ming didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He shook his head, “Mr. Li? Wasn’t Brother Daniu calling me Old Li just now? Why are you distancing yourself from me?”
“This- Brother Old Li, stop playing with me. If this matter is really a private matter, then don’t tell me about it. I’ll also treat it as if nothing has happened,” Pu Daniu immediately explained.
“What’s there to hide?” Yang Ming smiled, “Big Niu, I’m not with the Song Jiang police force. If you want to talk about how the kidnapping case is related to me, I also won’t deny it. The person who was kidnapped has some relationship with me. I came here because I wanted to save them.”
If Yang Ming were to go back, he would still require the assistance of Pu Daniu’s forces. When the time comes, he would not be able to hide it. Because of this, Yang Ming did not hide anything from Da Niu, and just directly told him everything.
“Is that so. Then I must have worried too much.” Pu Daniu let out a sigh of relief. He said with a little lingering fear, “No matter what, Brother Old Li, you did us a favor. To be honest with you, we have always been fighting against the Goldenhawk Gang. However, the Goldenhawk Gang has always been very strong with a powerful backer behind them. We did not dare offend them, and we have to always tolerate them on many matters. This time, although Brother Old Li has personal grievances with the Goldenhawk Gang, you also directly helped us by dealing with them. I, Daniu, owe you one. Don’t worry, I’ll use all my might to help you.”
…
That night, a fishing boat quietly sailed out of the dock of Bianhai City and entered the Russian border.
“Brother Li, the dock of Meitena Town is right in front of us. However, we’re not familiar with that place. We have never stopped there before. We dare not simply move around there!” The one speaking was the man wearing glasses. This time, it was him who personally escorted Yang Ming through the border.
If it weren’t because of how busy Pu Daniu was, and that his territory needed someone to take care of, he would definitely personally come and escort Yang Ming. However, before they parted, he reminded Yang Ming that the person in glasses was absolutely trustworthy. Yang Ming could just command him if he needed anything.
“Is it just in front?” Yang Ming stared at the lights far away from him and started thinking. This Meitena Town is really close to Bianhai City. If you take a boat, you can reach it within one hour. No wonder the Blackhawk Gang stationed the majority of their forces in Bianhai City. If they control this route, then drug trafficking is not a problem at all.
“Yes, the Meitena Town’s dock is just in front.” The man wearing glasses said respectfully, “Brother Li, should we take a longer route and stop at a town close to Meitena Town? Or should we forcefully stop by the shore and try our luck?”
“Neither!” Yang Ming waved his hand, then quickly took out a waterproof suit from his backpack. After he wore it, he told the man wearing glasses, “Glasses, I’ll just swim there. You go back first.”
Through conversing, Yang Ming had already known that the man wearing glasses was nicknamed “Glasses”. Because of this, both Yang Ming and Pu Daniu called him “Glasses”.
“Swim? It’s so cold now…” The man wearing glasses was shocked, “Brother Li, should we sail the boat a little further ahead?”
“There’s no need to. If we go further, I’m afraid that we will attract their attention.” Yang Ming shook his head and said, “This Meitena Town should be totally under the control of the Blackhawk Gang. If we forcefully go near, we will just alert them.”
“Alright.” Seeing how persistent Yang Ming was, the man wearing glasses did not say anything else, “If that’s so, then I shall go back first. Brother Li, contact me if you finish your task. I’ll come to pick you up.”
“Alright!” Yang Ming patted the shoulder of the man wearing glasses, then turned around and jumped into the water. He instantly vanished into the dark night.
The man wearing glasses gave out a sigh. He contemplated for a while with a complicated facial expression. In the end, he took out his phone and dialed a phone number. After a while, he told the person he was contacting, “Vesdruff, it’s me. That Li brat rejected both of my offers and decided to swim there. Take care on your side.”
The person on the other side of the phone responded. The man wearing glasses replied a few “I get it” and immediately hung up the phone call.
“Who are you calling?” A cold voice sounded behind the man wearing glasses. It immediately caused him to shiver. As his hand trembled, his phone fell to the floor.
