After a while, Kang Xia turned around and looked deeply at Andy, as she raised her hand to pinch her small face and said, “Just do what you wanna do! If anything, I’m really vexed and resentful since you made a fuss in the good thing I was about to have tonight. You know what? It was not only my foot got twisted, but also my arms, waist, and neck… So, you’re responsible for giving me a massage now.”

Andy’s big eyes lit up with a happy expression. She hurriedly crawled up to the sofa while pinching Kang Xia’s shoulders, then she laughed and said, “Alright, Chief. Then call Boss now. I don’t care whatever lies you use, it’s fine as long as he gets deceived.”

“Dream on!” Kang Xia rolled her eyes at her.

Ring ring ring…

The mobile phone’s ringtone was ringing in the bag and Kang Xia took it. Seeing that it was a call from Tang Xiu, she immediately connected and smilingly said, “Boss, Andy wants you to come back. She’s waiting for you and kind of wants to pet you.”

“Cough, cough… knock it off, will you? Just get dress up, the two of you. I’ll be coming to your villa shortly. There’s something I need to do.” Tang Xiu coughed twice and then said with a serious tone.

“What is it?”

“It’s for interrogating… enemies.”

“Alright.”

A few minutes later, after Kang Xia and Andy had neatly dressed up and come to the first-floor living room, they saw that Tang Xiu had come in with Mo Awu and four fainted men.

“Who are they, Boss?” Asked Kang Xia with a confused expression.

“They were tracking us in secret; Awu discovered them. Awu, wake them up,” said Tang Xiu.

Mo Awu nodded and walked to the front of the four men and used the crudest mean: stepping on their wrists and breaking them. He then went to Tang Xiu’s side when they woke up due to the pain.

“Who are you?”

Though the four men’s wrists were broken, no scream came out from them, and the asking big man’s eyes were even full of killing intent.

“Ordinary people would have already screamed if their wrists got broken. Now, tell me! Who are you? Why are you following me?” Sneered Tang Xiu.

“Hmph, we don’t know what you’re talking about, nor who you are.” The big man snorted. “Society runs under the law nowadays, and I demand you to release us. Else you can expect to have a very serious criminal charge on you for kidnapping.”

“Did the people who send you to follow me not tell you who I am?” Tang Xiu jeered. “Do you think stubbornly refusing to talk can help you cope with what you will go through? If you’re smart, explain your identity and the purpose why you are following me, perhaps… I can spare your life. Else, you can be sure that death won’t be your end, for I have too many ways to make you keep your life, longing to be alive and to die and yet unable to ask for both.”

The big man’s pupils contracted and he could not restrain his body from twitching. Suddenly, he pulled out a sharp dagger from his arms and stabbed his comrade’s heart.

BAM…

Mo Awu acted in a flash and kicked the stout man’s head, knocking him out directly. He then quickly inspected the man whose heart was stabbed, turned to Tang Xiu and shook his head, “He can’t be saved.”

Tang Xiu hummed coldly and shifted his vision toward the other two men who were obviously frightened judging from their pale faces. He then said with indifference, “I know why he acted like that and killed your comrade all of a sudden. He’s afraid that your comrade will disclose any information. One died and one will follow, adding more two or three deaths won’t be much of difference, no? What about you? Do you still want to conceal it, or will you confess truthfully?”

“I’ll speak!” The man shot an angry look at the stunned stout man and immediately said, “We are from the Strange Doors—intelligence agents of Eight Families Alliance under Strange Doors. We got ordered to investigate your identity and find out the power you belong to.”

People from Strange Doors?

Tang Xiu furrowed his brows and hummed coldly, “Hmph, under whose command?”

“I don’t know.” The man shook his head. “But my leader is the person in charge who’s in contact with the people above. However, I know that six teams were sent to investigate you, with each consisting of four people. We were the first to arrive in Star City, and the other five teams should be arriving within two days.”

Tang Xiu then looked at the other man.

That man also hurriedly said, “That’s true. That’s all I know about this.”

Tang Xiu then nodded to Mo Awu, as the latter stepped on the fainted stout man’s other wrist to wake him up again.

“Tell me, which person of the Strange Doors gave you the order to investigate my identity? I know what you have in mind, and why you suddenly killed your comrade. But I can tell you something. Your Strange Door’s people are nothing but trash in my eyes. No one in the Strange Doors will go on living if I want to kill you all,” said Tang Xiu with a cold expression.
