The first update,

...

Chen Da would set conditions, this indeed was within Qin Fang's expectations.

However, when Chen Da truly proposed the conditions, Qin Fang still couldn't help but struggle a bit.

Song Gang and Cao Chun were most likely brought in by Li Rui. Although Qin Fang didn't know who they were meant to target before, now it was certain they were targeting him.

Dealing with two crazed individuals like Song Gang and Cao Chun, Qin Fang did not have full confidence, mainly because the Life Points restoration from his baozi was minimal compared to the damage from bullets and bombs.

Both the lethality of bullets and bombs were far beyond Qin Fang's life point limit; they wouldn't give Qin Fang the chance to heal before completely wiping out all his life points at once.

This was also why Qin Fang valued his team of subordinates so much; only with their help was it most likely for him to handle the attacks from crazed individuals like Song Gang and Cao Chun, and even launch a fierce counterattack against Li Rui.

But the problem was that Qin Fang himself possessed extraordinary abilities and many skills. His mobility was much more powerful than that of the special forces soldiers, and Qin Fang also had some very special skills, such as—Metamorphosis; these were not something that could be casually displayed in public.

For Chen Da to develop a strict plan of action was something Qin Fang absolutely agreed with. However, this was only applicable to those soldiers. If Qin Fang were included, the plan might not be particularly effective and could even have adverse effects.

Not to mention, Qin Fang had a strong but cumbersome companion, Qin Shouxiong, by his side. He was an expert with formidable martial power, but he knew very little about the combat techniques of special forces, let alone the terrifying power of firearms and bombs.

"Brother Da, I can definitely promise you that I will develop a plan, but to also follow commands... It's not that I'm unwilling myself; it's just because of some special reasons, I may not be able to do it..."

Qin Fang said with difficulty, glancing sideways at Qin Shouxiong, his expression vaguely conveying that there were secrets Qin Fang simply could not reveal, so he had no choice but to use Qin Shouxiong as a shield.

Upon hearing this, Chen Da's brow immediately furrowed. In his initial plan, Qin Fang was a crucial piece, and only Qin Fang's presence could integrate the whole plan, potentially luring Song Gang and Cao Chun into a trap, thus capturing them in one fell swoop.

But then Chen Da looked at Qin Shouxiong standing behind Qin Fang, who seemed to understand Qin Fang's intention and suddenly released an extremely formidable and terrifying aura, his inner energy swirling and even disturbing the atmosphere around. Although Chen Da was disabled and much less powerful than before, he was still a Level 5 Expert and sensitive enough to detect such changes.

Although Chen Da was not aware of Qin Shouxiong's memory loss, seeing him following Qin Fang so closely and being a very powerful expert, he had somewhat understood the meaning behind Qin Fang's words.

Regarding Qin Fang's identity as the boss, they were all quite puzzled, only knowing that Qin Fang had a profound background, but he was quite easy-going, without any airs, and even when considering issues, he would try to think from the perspective of his subordinates as much as possible, which gained him considerable respect from everyone.

However, with Qin Shouxiong appearing as Qin Fang's personal bodyguard, Qin Fang had truly shown a bit of his sharp fangs, which made Chen Da think that Qin Fang might be a descendant of a worldly, influential family. Hence, despite facing two equally terrifying crazies like Song Gang and Cao Chun, he still remained so calm.

"Brother Da, although I can't execute the plan according to your request, I will do my best to coordinate with your operation... I am bait, this I am very clear about! I make this request solely to ensure my own chances of survival..."

Seeing the changes in Chen Da's expression, Qin Fang knew he had persuaded him, and immediately expressed his willingness to cooperate with the operation softly, even explaining why he could not carry out the plan.

"That will do then..."

Chen Da nodded; he was eager for revenge but had forgotten that he was now an employee of Qin Fang, hired at a high price to ensure his personal safety.

The problem was that in the plan Chen Da wanted to establish, Qin Fang, as bait to attract Song Gang and Cao Chun, would play an extremely dangerous role; he might be eliminated by the sharpshooter Song Gang before even having a chance to serve his purpose.

Although Chen Da would craft a relatively perfect plan, in the end, a plan is just a plan, and it can never keep up with the rapid changes that occur in reality. Perhaps a slight alteration due to external factors could produce an unforeseen flaw that if exploited by the enemy, would truly endanger Qin Fang, the bait.

Even if the plan is executed exactly as anticipated, given the madness of Song Gang and Cao Chun, Qin Fang's chances of survival would be only 80%, leaving a 20% chance of death... which would primarily depend on the strength of the bomb used by Cao Chun.

If Qin Fang had an expert like Qin Shouxiong to protect him, Song Gang and Cao Chun would surely be very careful in their arrangements and deployment. They could remain hidden in the shadows, and Qin Fang could devise a new targeted plan that might not be much weaker than the one he had initially considered.

Chen Da also knew that Qin Fang certainly had some aces up his sleeve that they were unaware of. With a little more effort, wiping out Song Gang and Cao Chun wouldn't be too big of a problem.

With this in mind, Chen Da suddenly felt more confident and was also looking forward to his boss Qin Fang's performance.

"Wei Suo, keep a close watch these days. If anyone slips up, they'll answer to me... And if you're the one who screws up, clean your asshole and wait for those perverts in the cell!"

Having persuaded Chen Da, Qin Fang's goal was naturally achieved. He didn't bother with any more idle chatter with Chen Da, who was himself a former special forces commander and far superior to Qin Fang in commanding abilities.

This was beyond doubt, as seen from last night's swift action, where they hit Li Rui with a blunt object, and he didn't even know who was behind it.

And that was just a simple command by Chen Da, which he described as just a warm-up for everyone.

The gap between street hooligans and professional special forces soldiers is stark. No matter how brave some hooligans might be, their nature dictates that they are just a rabble.

The discipline of soldiers is very strict, and the principle of following commands is more than just talk; they strictly follow the battle plans set by their commanders, advance and retreat in an orderly manner, attack and defend with measure, never succumbing to chaos like hooligans who rush in when winning and collapse instantly upon defeat…

This is why Dragon Country never acknowledges the existence of the underworld, for the government can easily crush any immensely powerful criminal organization if it wishes to.

The reason they choose not to acknowledge its existence, yet the Underground World continues to teem with various small gangs, is nothing more than a combination of interests. They are merely proxies for influential people who can't get involved openly.

Li Rui's forces indeed included some elite experts, like the dozen or so elites at the Drunken Cat Nightclub, who were far stronger than ordinary thugs. Even renowned fighters like Wang Hu and Zhang Dao wouldn't stand a chance against them.

But these people are like a special forces squad to Qin Fang, few in number, and each loss is keenly felt, even to someone like Li Rui.

Unfortunately, Li Rui had planned to use them against Chen Da and his group, but Qin Fang and Brother Qin Shou led their forces and struck first.

These experts were indeed strong, and facing Chen Da and his group, the outcome was uncertain. However, they were unlucky to encounter Qin Fang and Brother Qin Shou; soldiers versus Martial Arts Experts, without the lethal weapon—the gun, they simply could not match Qin Fang and Brother Qin Shou in hand-to-hand combat.

Soldiers are also proficient in close-quarter combat, and military killing techniques are quite formidable, incorporating the essence of many martial arts, making it easy to prevail against third or fourth-tier experts.

Although Qin Fang and Brother Qin Shou were not yet considered first-rate experts, they were at least second-rate, and handling them was quite effortless. As a result, such a small squad of over ten people was unfortunately defeated and now has become Tiger's prisoners.

"Don't worry, Young Master Qin, I will definitely cooperate with Brother Da's command…"

Wei Suo almost subconsciously covered his behind and looked at Qin Fang with an expression of abject fear, as if it was not the ravenous inmates who were threatening his chastity, but Qin Fang himself.

To this, Qin Fang could only helplessly despise the man with a glance, for even in his fear, he did not change his sleazy nature—it seemed his name was indeed well-chosen.

With the plan left to Chen Da, Qin Fang could temporarily step aside. Song Gang and Cao Chun might act soon, but at least not right at this critical juncture. Because in these next two days, Ninghai was about to start a severe crackdown, organized by both provincial and municipal police systems. Anyone who dared to cause trouble at this time was asking for misfortune.

How did Qin Fang know in advance?

It was Ning Weiqiang who had let it slip; his father was the secretary of the Provincial Political and Legal Affairs Committee, and at that time, the new secretary of the Municipal Political and Legal Affairs Committee, Ye Heng's son Ye Xiang, was also present. Ye Heng had revealed this news to Ye Xiang, stating that the official crackdown would start tomorrow, which is why Qin Fang did not hesitate to act tonight.

Retaliating against Li Rui was inevitable, but Qin Fang wouldn't be the fool to lead the charge—that was a stupid move he would not commit. Naturally, he had acted in advance, and perhaps the impulsive Li Rui would make a foolish move... Wouldn't that just lead to a crushing blow? (To be continued.
