Chapter 166 - Scarface's Past

Li Xiang thought that things would get better if he found them, but he did not expect someone like and Nanjing to appear at this time.

This person was the Scar Face that he met last time on the rooftop regarding Xu Che. That time, he clearly had the chance to call for another person to be captured by him, but he did not do so, and instead let him go after exchanging some pointers with him.

Li Xiang knew that this person's skills were good, moreover, it was unfathomable. It was just that he didn't understand why this person would let him go this time. Now that the lair had been removed, why was he still here? Did he hide the USB drive to keep it?

Li Xiang looked at the unfathomable man in front of him and said: "It's you? Xu Ban? "

The man was startled upon hearing his words, and after half a day, he said: "We meet again, I originally saw that you weren't a simple person, but I didn't expect your memory to be so poor. My name is not Xu Ban, I'm Xu Hong, the person you rescued is Xu Ban."

Liang was also startled when he heard this. He suddenly hit his head and laughed. He had been wrong all along. He had always reversed the two names. Damn it, he had actually made such a low level mistake.

Initially, Li Xiang had helped Huang Shan come here to save the person. That person told him that when he was at Police station, his name was Xu Ban and later on, he found out that the person was called Xu Che after he was saved.

Li Xiang recovered his serious expression, looked at Xu Hong and asked: "Why are you still here? "The nest has already been taken away, why haven't you left?"

Xu Hong looked at the USB in Li Xiang's hand and did not say a word.

"What?" "Are you keeping watch over this USB drive?" Li Xiang's hand that was holding onto the USB tightened, as he looked at Xu Hong vigilantly.

"Yes!" I was waiting for you. I knew you'd be back, but I didn't expect you to be so late. "

Hearing Xu Hong's words, Li Xiang was stunned. He was waiting for me to return, but he actually knew that I would return. "Why are you so sure that I would return?"

"Instinct." Xu Hong said out two simple words, and his eyes revealed a kind of firm conviction.

"Can we talk?" Xu Hong suddenly said.

Li Xiang was startled, he looked at Xu Hong strangely. He had originally thought that Xu Hong's appearance would cause a fight with him over the USB drive, but he never expected that Xu Hong only wanted to chat with him, he did not know what this man was thinking.

"Don't worry, I mean no harm. If I wanted to snatch the USB in your hand, I wouldn't have placed it here to wait for you to get it back when I discovered it." Xu Hong said again. His eyes were filled with sincerity.

Li Xiang looked at the man in front of him. He knew that this man was a man, and that his heart was not bad.

Li Xiang saw the sincerity in Xu Hong's eyes, he wanted to stay and have a good chat with this man, he could tell that this man had a story. On the other hand, maybe he could learn more about those drug dealers from.

Li Xiang smiled towards Xu Hong and nodded. Then, he turned to Liu Fei and the other two people behind him and said: "The three of you go back first. Wait for my call tomorrow, I will notify all of you to go to work."

"Alright, big brother, then we won't yell at you guys anymore. Call us anytime if you need anything." Liu Fei and the other two left.

Li Xiang and Xu Hong arrived at the roof where they fought before. Looking at the sky filled with stars and the full moon, and the distant flickering neon lights, Li Xiang felt that the city's night sky was originally so beautiful.

Li Xiang suddenly realized that his train of thought had wandered off. He shook his head and laughed bitterly.

"What's wrong? What are you laughing at? " Xu Hong glanced at Li Xiang and asked.

Li Xiang took a deep breath, glanced at Xu Hong and said: "I see that you're a man with a good heart, why are you walking together with those people?"

Xu Hong's face changed a little as if he had thought of the past. He seemed to be very helpless and said slowly: "Money! For money, or rather for a woman, a vain woman. "

Li Xiang would never have thought that such a resolute man would openly go against the laws of the country for a woman, and even more so for a woman who desired vanity.

Li Xiang thought, this man must have loved that woman a lot, but seeing Xu Hong's current state, Li Xiang had already thought of their results.

That woman must have already left Xu Hong, if not, when Xu Che was talking about the woman he loved, it would be because he was having some other happiness, and was especially foolish. The expression on his face should have been filled with a kind of sweetness, and not the depression he was in now.

"I loved that woman so much that I could do anything for her, anything she wanted, but she left me in the end." Xu Hong's current mood was very complicated. The depressed look on his face had changed into one of regret.

Seeing Xu Hong's current state, Li Xiang felt a bit of sympathy for him. A woman that desired vanity should love money and status, not people like Xu Hong.

Li Xiang looked at the man in front of him. He didn't know what to say.

At this time, Li Xiang thought of Mo Fei. If it was Mo Fei, would he also do anything for her, including breaking the law? He didn't dare to think about it, because he didn't know either.

Li Xiang patted Xu Hong's shoulders and comforted him: "Brother, after the matter is over, don't think about it anymore.

Xu Hong took a deep breath, his mood seemed to have improved a lot, "Yeah, let bygones be bygones."

"What did you do before? Seeing you reminds me of my comrades. " Li Xiang looked at Xu Hong and asked.

Xu Hong looked at Li Xiang and smiled: "Is that so? Is that why you want to stay and talk to me? "

Li Xiang laughed. "I don't think so. You are a man, and I also want to know more about you."

"I have the same feeling when I see you. I used to be a soldier, a special forces soldier, thinking back to my days in the army, when I was young and arrogant, I was obsessed with everything. Now look at me, I didn't think it would be like this." After saying that, Xu Hong sighed.

Li Xiang should have already known that with Xu Hong's abilities and the imposing aura he was displaying, it was definitely not towards soldiers.

Li Xiang glanced at Xu Hong. At this moment, Li Xiang did not want to interrupt him, he wanted to hear more about this man in front of him. This was probably what it meant to be a hero and not a hero.

Xu Hong continued: "After I left the army, I became a bandit and met that vain woman. I found her to be not bad and she was kind too, so I got to know her, it's just that she was dressed up a little."

"At first she loved me, but then I met a group of criminals on the way to the van. My colleagues were all dead, and I was seriously injured. My face was also disfigured that time, leaving behind this scar. After that, the woman started to distance herself from me."

"You're talking about the robbery of the van four years ago?" Li Xiang knew that all of the weapons used by the criminals in that big case were advanced weapons. When they were trying to capture the criminals, Li Xiang and his comrades had also participated in the investigation, and two of their comrades had died in that operation.

Xu Hong nodded his head, "I found out that woman changed her heart and thought of leaving her, but I found out that I couldn't leave her. In order to keep her, in order to earn enough money to satisfy her vanity, I was introduced to here by a little hoodlum."

"The first thing I instructed them to do was to kidnap and sell children. When I found out that I wanted to leave, I was already unable to do so. You should have thought that after knowing so much about them, it would be impossible to leave, unless you died."

Xu Hong knew so many of their secrets, how could they possibly let him go? Although Xu Hong had some abilities, even if he forced himself to leave, he wouldn't be able to escape their evil hands.

"So you decided to stay?" Li Xiang asked again.

Xu Hong let out a long sigh, looked at the stars that filled the sky, and laughed helplessly: "Otherwise, what else could we do? "I don't want to die yet, not because I'm afraid of dying. I want to stay and see if I can collect some evidence of their crimes."

"After seeing what they did to those children, I was truly enraged. I really wanted to kill those beasts, but I couldn't do that back then. I endured it. I want to have a stake in the overall situation."

"I had already known that there was something wrong with that person called Xu Ban. After I found out that he was secretly collecting their criminal evidence, I did not expose him. At first, I wanted to cooperate with him, but I was afraid that he would not trust me.

"Then one of the leaders seemed to suspect him, and he seemed to sense something, so he hid the evidence he collected in the toilet. Then he was caught, and I know he won't be able to escape, and the evidence will be discovered sooner or later."

"So you hid it in the crack in the roof pipe?" Li Xiang then said the last part.

Xu Hong looked at Li Xiang with praise in his eyes and laughed, "That's right, after you appeared, you let me know that Xu Ban was saved. At that time when you saved Xu Ban, you injured him and then jumped into the sea.

When Li Xiang heard his words, he was stunned, his face full of surprise. He did not expect that Xu Hong had been following him the entire time, but he did not realize it.

Xu Hong continued to speak: "But I didn't expect you to jump into the sea. Seeing how deep the cliff is and how big the ocean waves are below us, I also thought that you were dead for sure, but my instincts told me that you wouldn't die that easily."

When Li Xiang heard this, he did not know what to say. He did not know why this man thought that he would not die. "Why are you so sure that I won't die?"
