Chapter 1877: Letter of Challenge

“Boss, boss! This isn’t good!” yelled Mike as he rushed in.

“Why are you in such a rush? Can’t you say it properly?” Headless Wolf frowned, “Even if you successfully captured them, you don’t have to act like that to take credit for it.”

From Headless Wolf’s perspective, Mike must have captured them, and wanted to take the credit for it. Since Mike was his confidant, he must be too eager to increase his status in the gang. However, he needed a reason to increase his status. Mike must have wanted to use this successful capture to take credit, and gain a chance for promotion.

Headless Wolf felt that bringing a group of people to catch a foreigner wasn’t any huge matter. This is too simple. It could be done by anyone. What credit is there to claim?

Headless Wolf then stared at Mike, “I know what you’re thinking! You’re my confidant. If there’s a chance, I will definitely promote you. You shouldn’t be in such a rush. It’s just capturing someone, It’s not a big accomplishment. Others would definitely have some objections if I were to promote you.”

“It’s not like that, boss…” Mike didn’t know how to respond after hearing Headless Wolf’s words, and immediately shook his head.

“Enough. What do you mean by it’s not like that? You have captured the person, right? Watch him carefully. I’ll call the boss to report it to him,” Headless Wolf waved his hand and interrupted Mike.

“It’s not like that, boss!” Mike was a little anxious.

“I asked you to stop saying that. Why are you still saying it? Let me call the boss first. Tell me what you want to say after I finish the phone call!” Headless Wolf stopped him again with slight impatience.

“Boss, listen to what I have to say! I really have an important matter to report! Something serious has happened!” Mike didn’t care too much anymore. He rushed forward and snatched the phone that Headless Wolf had just picked up, before returning it to its original spot.

“What happened to you? Why are you being so troublesome?” raged Headless Wolf. “Even if you’re my confidant, you can’t be so disrespectful and impudent! Behave yourself! If you’re still this disobedient, I won’t let you do anything in the future!”

Mike complained in his heart. Even if you ask me to go next time, I don’t dare to go. It’s too scary. I almost died! Just this once is enough! Who dares to go a second time?

“Boss, I really don’t dare to go a second time! It’s too scary!” said Mike hurriedly.

“En? What do you mean? What happened?” headless Wolf finally realized that something was off. He frowned and lowered the phone on his hand, “Mike, could it be that you failed this mission?”

“I didn’t just fail it, I failed it very badly!” Mike smiled bitterly, “Boss, I brought ten underlings with me. In the end, only I returned alive. The others are all corpses.”

“What! Do you mean that the others are all dead? How is that possible?” Headless Wolf was shocked. He looked at Mike in disbelief.

“Boss, do you think that I’m someone who spouts nonsense? The corpses of those underlings are still in the car downstairs. They have been put into some polypropylene knitted bags…” Mike said while feeling afraid, “Boss, you must not know that Yang Ming has an underling that has unrivaled strength. He just moved his body, and all ten brother’s throats were immediately slit. Even my gun was taken away from me without me noticing!”

“Are you telling the truth?” headless Wolf never expected such a simple mission to fail. Seems like that Yang Ming’s underling isn’t that simple?!

“How could I dare to simply joke about this kind of thing?” said Mike as he nodded his head.

“We underestimated our opponent!” Headless Wolf frowned, “No wonder the boss asked me to ensure that this mission was done well. Seems like this person isn’t simple!”

“Indeed…” Mike quickly agreed. Although the opponent was too powerful, he was still responsible for his whole team dying, as he was their leader. By agreeing with Headless Wolf, he could relieve his responsibility.

“En?” Headless Wolf suddenly thought about another matter. His facial expression changed, and he said to Mike in a scary manner, “They’re all dead? Then, why are you the only one who returned alive? You aren’t even hurt?”

“Boss, I was only released because they wanted a messenger and a corpse transporter!” Mike blanked out for a moment, and immediately understood what Headless Wolf meant. Headless Wolf was doubting him. He smiled bitterly and immediately explained, “They disdained killing me, and just asked me to pass on a message. Yang Ming asked the Nancheng Family’s family master to go see him within twenty-four hours, or suffer repercussions.”

Headless Wolf frowned. He believed Mike’s explanation. After all, it was just a sudden suspicion. Mike was his confidant. He had no reason to doubt Mike’s loyalty.

Besides, the boss had just recently ordered them to catch this foreigner named Yang Ming. It was impossible for Yang Ming and Mike to have any contact.

“Hmph, such arrogance!” Headless Wolf was disdainful toward Yang Ming’s arrogant tone. So what if his underling is very strong? Losing ten underlings doesn’t mean anything. It just means that I underestimated my opponent.

“Indeed, boss. It was so humiliating for me today. I kneeled on the ground and even kowtowed toward him, but he didn’t even bother looking at me!” Mike agreed angrily, “Boss, you must teach him a lesson!”

“Enough, you don’t have to care about this matter anymore. Allow me to settle it!” Headless Wolf snorted and said, “Go bury the dead brothers. Give some funeral expenses to their families. I’ll let you handle this matter.”

“Yes, boss. I’ll settle it right away!” Mike was happy when he heard that he didn’t have to care about Yang Ming’s matters anymore. He was even tasked to comfort the family members of the dead underlings. This was a good opportunity to gain the support of others, and raise his reputation.

The money spent belonged to the gang, and everyone would only see how kind he was. Naturally, Mike gladly accepted this offer.

After Mike left, Headless Wolf called his boss, Govisik, with a depressed expression.

“Headless Wolf, how did it go? Has the matter been settled?” Govisik asked as soon as he picked up Headless Wolf’s phone call.

“Boss, something went wrong!” said Headless Wolf carefully.

“Something went wrong? What’s the problem?” Govisik asked, surprised.

“Boss, I sent eleven men to capture him. But only one person returned alive. The other ten men all died there!” said Headless Wolf. “Yang Ming’s underling is very powerful. He killed everyone instantly when he took action…”

“What!” Govisik stood up from his office chair when he heard Headless Wolf’s report. He yelled in surprise, “How is that possible? Is that guy that powerful?”

“Boss, I also underestimated him previously. I never thought that he would have such an outstanding bodyguard,” Headless Wolf admitted his mistake first. “However, even so, that Yang Ming guy is really arrogant. He only let that underling return alive to tell you something. The message was to notify the family master of the Nancheng Family to meet him within twenty-four hours, or suffer repercussions.”

“Hmph!” Govisik snorted coldly after hearing Headless Wolf’s words. This wasn’t the first time hearing this. He had also heard it from Smith and Batterton. He never expected Headless Wolf to also bring the same message. He laughed coldly in his heart. Isn’t this Yang Ming guy too arrogant? How does he have such confidence? Isn’t he just relying on that one strong bodyguard? So what if he’s capable of fighting? You can’t beat guns!

“Boss… What do you think…?” Headless Wolf quickly asked. He was perturbed after hearing Govisik’s snort. He didn’t know what Govisik was thinking.

“How about this. Ask someone to give Yang Ming a letter of challenge, and tell him to bring his underling to the Guillotine Gang’s headquarters!” said Govisik after giving it some thought. “Since his underling is so capable of fighting, we would suffer if we sent our men to find him in the hotel. After all, the Douglas Vast Hotel belongs to other people. We can’t let too many people go in at once. We have to take care of our reputation. Besides, not many people can get into the elevator at once. We would suffer losses if everyone was killed batch by batch.

Chapter 1878: Leave After Having A Meal

“That’s a decent idea. Let that kid suffer death in our gang’s headquarters!” Headless Wolf felt that it was a good idea. It stopped unnecessary casualties. Besides, after Yang Ming reached the headquarters, it was useless even if his underling was capable of fighting. The headquarters was Headless Wolf’s territory. He would do whatever he wants to Yang Ming here, Yang Ming could only accept death obediently here.

“You don’t need me to tell you what to do next, right? After he arrives at the headquarters, don’t show him any mercy. Just immediately surround him and beat him up. We’ll decide what to do after we tie him up!” said Govisik.

“Boss, I understand!” answered Headless Wolf. However, he thought of a crucial problem, “Boss, what if Yang Ming doesn’t come? He’s not a fool either. No matter how many powerful underlings he has, he won’t be able to defeat us if he comes to our headquarters!”

“En… Your worry is right. However, it’s unnecessary!” said Govisik as he smiled.

“Why is it necessary?” Headless Wolf was surprised.

“Think about it. Yang Ming asked the family master to meet him within twenty-four hours, or else the family master would have to suffer the repercussions. Since this Yang Ming overestimates himself so much, it means that he is a very arrogant and confident man. Since

he’s like that, it is impossible for him to run away.” said Govisik, “Besides, you can just tell him, ‘I can’t order my family master. If you want to meet the family master, come to the Guillotine Gang’s headquarters!’ If you phrase it like that, a person as arrogant as him would definitely go to the Guillotine Gang’s headquarters!”

“That’s right! Why didn’t I think of that!” said Headless Wolf happily. “Boss, your method of provoking is really smart!”

“Don’t let anything go wrong this time. Take care of things carefully. Give me a call after you finish everything!” Govisik knew that the incident this time wasn’t Headless Wolf’s fault. It was just that the opponent was too strong. However, he was still a little unsatisfied. If he didn’t underestimate his opponent, things wouldn’t turn out like this. After all, he had lost ten underlings. That was quite a huge force already.

“Relax, boss. There won’t be any problems this time!” guaranteed Headless Wolf.

Govisik hung up the phone without saying anything else. Headless Wolf wiped the sweat on his forehead. After thinking for a while, he called Mike again. Originally, Headless Wolf didn’t want to let Mike care about this matter anymore.

His original plan was to let one of the four major fighters in the gang, Slater, personally take action. Slater was his personal bodyguard. He had no problems fighting against eleven people alone. This problem should be settled if Slater brought the other three major fighters with him.

However, Govisik’s phone call made him change his mind. It would be safer to let Yang Ming come to their gang’s headquarters. With this, Yang Ming would be seized without a fight.

After thinking about it, Headless Wolf decided to let Mike fulfill this role, as he already had experience as a messenger. Besides, Yang Ming let Mike go last time. He should let him go this time as well. It would avoid creating any additional troubles.

“Mike, where are you?” Headless Wolf dialed Mike’s phone again.

“Boss, I’m discussing the funeral expenses for our dead brothers with their underlings,” said Mike

“Just hand this matter over to someone else. I have something for you to do. Come to my office.” said Headless Wolf.

“Ah… Okay…” Mike wanted to ask the reason, but Headless Wolf had already hung up. Mike could only go to Headless Wolf’s office anxiously.

“Boss, are you looking for me?” asked Mike carefully.

“En, it’s like this.” Headless Wolf had already finished writing the letter of challenge, and was printing it out, “Go to the Douglas Vast Hotel one more time. Find Yang Ming and pass this letter of challenge to him.”

“Ah? I still have to go?” Mike’s face immediately turned bitter. He was originally very happy because he thought he didn’t have to go anymore. He never expected Headless Wolf to change his mind.

“I’m not asking you to do anything this time. I didn’t ask you to capture anyone either. Just pass this letter to Yang Ming,” said Headless Wolf.

“This… alright…” Although Mike really didn’t want to go, he had no choice since Headless Wolf had already ordered him. He could only force himself to go.

“After you go, tell Yang Ming that this is a letter of challenge from us. If he’s brave enough, come to our headquarters. As for the family master matter, just say that we have no authority to invite the family master over. If he really wants to find the family master, we’ll talk about it after he’s at the gang’s headquarters,” said Headless Wolf.

“Understood!” Mike nodded and took the letter of challenge Headless Wolf gave him. He then left Headless Wolf’s office with a gloomy face.

After removing all the corpses in the car, Mike handed the matter to his confidant. Letting his confidants carry out such a rewarding task was better than letting others do so. Even if he let others do it, his own men also had to gain some benefits.

Mike then drove back to the Douglas Vast Hotel. After he parked his car and got out, he looked around carefully before entering the hotel. He felt a little awkward when he saw that Batterton was still in the hotel lobby. However, he had no choice but to walk inside.

“Mr. Mike? Why are you back again?” Batterton greeted him while feeling curious, “Why is it only you this time?”

Although he was mocking Mike in his heart, he still acted like he was very concerned.

“Ah, stop mentioning it. I’m here on behalf of my boss to deliver a letter of challenge!” said Mike helplessly. “I didn’t want to do so. However, my boss asked me to come, so I can’t reject him. Forget it, let’s not talk about it. Let me quickly deliver this letter of challenge away and leave. I don’t dare to stay around here.”

“Go ahead, go ahead. Be careful!” said Batterton.

Mike reached Room One on the hotel’s top floor. After hesitating for a long time, he knocked on the door.

Yang Ming had already heard some movements coming from the corridor. When he saw Mike, he didn’t do anything. He just wanted to see why Mike had returned.

Yang Ming waited for Mike to get over his hesitation for a long time. After Mike finally knocked on the door, Yang Ming asked, “Who is it?”

“Mr. Yang, it’s me, Mike!” said Mike carefully. “Can you please open the door?”

“Why? You brought more people to come capture me?” Yang Ming purposely asked, and was prepared to open the door.

“No, don’t get me wrong. I’m not here to cause you any trouble. I don’t dare to do so!” Mike quickly explained, “Mr. Yang, I’m here to deliver a letter of challenge!”

“Deliver a letter of challenge?” Yang Ming was surprised. He opened the door while being filled with curiosity.

“Yes, this is it!” Mike quickly handed the letter of challenge in his hand over to Yang Ming.

Yang Ming snorted coldly and took the so-called “letter of challenge” from Mike’s hands before starting to read it.

Are they trying to goad me? Yang Ming looked at the letter of challenge’s phrases in contempt. You want me to go to your Guillotine Gang’s headquarters? What a good tactic. Do they want me to walk into the trap myself?

However, it can only be considered a trap if the person it’s targeting is not strong enough. If the person is strong enough, it’s called destroying their territory!

This is actually better. It saves me the effort of locating the Guillotine Gang’s Headquarters, as they directly wrote the address for me.

Mike felt a little afraid when he saw Yang Ming remaining silent, “Mr. Yang, I have already sent the letter of challenge. Can I leave now?”

“Leave?” Yang Ming asked.

“Mr. Yang, I’m just here to send a letter of challenge. I don’t have any other intentions!” Mike sounded like he really wanted to cry, “Messengers shouldn’t be killed if two factions are going against each other!”

“Heh-” Yang Ming was amused when he saw Mike’s expression, “Two factions going against each other? Is this really two factions? Enough, I have already that I won’t make things difficult for you. Tell that Headless Wolf that I will go. Ask him to wait for me.”

“Okay, Mr. Yang. When will you leave?” Mike quickly nodded.

“I’ll leave after I finish eating.” said Yang Ming plainly. After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and closed the room door.

“Sigh!” Mike let out a sigh of relief. Before Yang Ming changed his mind, he hurriedly ran downstairs.

Yang Ming threw the letter of challenge aside and dialed the telephone in Golden Bull’s room.

“Leader, what orders do you have?” Golden Bull also noticed that someone had passed by the corridor. He was staring at Mike from the door the whole time. However, without Yang Ming’s orders, he wouldn’t act on his own and do anything to Mike.

“Golden Bull, gather everyone. We’ll go annihilate the Guillotine Gang’s headquarters later!” said Yang Ming.
