Chapter 506 Reaching cooperation!
"Kill me if you dare. Anyway, only one of us can leave this gate today."
Qi Tongwei just looked at him calmly, without any panic in his eyes.
He quickly found some ropes from the side and tied up Long Can's hands and feet skillfully and quickly.
Just now, when grabbing the knife, Qi Tongwei accidentally injured Long Can, and some of Long Can's blood splashed on his body.
Qi Tongwei wiped the blood off. His movements were very casual, as if he was wiping off a bit of dust on his body.
There was no expression on his face, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
After doing all this, Qi Tongwei sat on the ground, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it and took a deep breath.
He looked at Long Can with deep eyes, like a bottomless lake, calm yet revealing an unfathomable power.
Qi Tongwei knew that now was not the time to completely break up with Long Can, and he still had a lot of things to ask Long Can.
Qi Tongwei also lit a cigarette for the other party.
Long Can took a deep puff from Qi Tongwei's hand, and the cigarette instantly burned more vigorously. He then closed his eyes.
"Awesome, I didn't expect that this would be the ending for me, Long Can."
There was an indescribable emotion in Long Can's voice, as if he had already sentenced himself to death in his heart.
Qi Tongwei squatted on the ground, staring at Long Can with a probing look in his eyes.
"What's the ending?"
Long Can narrowed his eyes, his gaze revealing a calmness that came from someone who saw through life and death.
"What do you think? It feels worth it to be able to smoke this cigarette before I die."
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and there was a hint of self-mockery and relief in that smile.
Qi Tongwei put the cigarette in his mouth, took a deep puff, and then suddenly changed his face to a serious one.
His eyes became sharp and pierced straight at Long Can.
"Who told you to die? I haven't found the channel yet, so you can't die yet."
Long Can looked at Qi Tongwei, startled at first, then sneered. The laughter was particularly harsh in the silent environment.
"I knew this was all a disguise."
Qi Tongwei ignored Long Can's resentment, and his expression did not relax in the slightest.
"Long Can, do you think this is going to end so easily? You've done so many evil things, and you think you can just die so easily? It's not that easy."
Long Can's body trembled slightly, he knew that he had no way out.
But he still said stubbornly: "Humph, what do you think you can get from me? I won't tell you anything."
Qi Tongwei stood up calmly and paced back and forth in front of Long Can. "Long Can, you can be tough now, but you have to know that your accomplices are not as resolute as you. If I just leak a little information and say that you have already betrayed them, what do you think they will do?"
His words were like a sharp knife, piercing Long Can's soft spot.
Long Can's face turned pale, he knew that what Qi Tongwei said was true.
In their sinful world, trust is the cheapest thing. Once he is considered to be a betrayer of his accomplices, his fate will be worse than death.
Qi Tongwei saw the change in Long Can's expression and knew that his words had worked.
He squatted down and looked into Long Can's eyes again. "Long Can, you have two choices now. Either tell me what I want to know, or wait to be torn to pieces by your accomplices."
Qi Tongwei sat cross-legged on the ground. His posture was casual and relaxed, but his expression had changed.
"I am also a desperado now, and I have many lives on my hands."
Qi Tongwei's voice was low and hoarse.
He raised his head slightly, his eyes looking into the distance, as if lost in memories.
"What I did before has left me with no way back. So I have to do a few big things, then escape completely and never come back."
He paused, then refocused his gaze on Long Can, his eyes filled with desire and greed.
"I know you have the resources, Brother Long. Someone like you must have a lot of connections in this industry."
Long Can frowned and looked at Qi Tongwei, his eyes full of confusion and vigilance.
"Do you know who I am?"
Qi Tongwei immediately put on a flattering smile, leaned forward slightly, and said:
"Brother Long, A'long, who doesn't know you? You're a well-known figure in our circle. Everyone has heard of your deeds. I have always admired you and think you are a capable person. I have always thought that if I could make a big fortune with you, then I wouldn't have to worry about the rest of my life."
After hearing what Qi Tongwei said, Long Can's vigilance eased a little.
He sighed, his eyes revealing a hint of helplessness and frustration.
"Since you know me, you must know that the police raided my lair some time ago, and all the wealth I worked so hard to save for so many years was gone."
Qi Tongwei shook his head seriously, "Brother Long, this is just a very insignificant part. Those small things will be gone if they are gone. What I want are the channels in other links, the ones that can really make big money."
When Long Can heard this, he realized that Qi Tongwei seemed to know something.
He squinted his eyes and looked at Qi Tongwei, his eyes full of inquiry and suspicion.
He tried to tell from Qi Tongwei's expression how much he knew, but there was no flaw on Qi Tongwei's face.
Qi Tongwei looked at Long Can's reaction, sneered in his heart, deliberately lowered his voice, and said in a mysterious tone: "For example, organs."
Long Can was extremely shocked, his face full of disbelief. He had never expected that something so secretive of his would be known by someone he had never heard of before.
He narrowed his eyes, his gaze filled with vigilance and suspicion, and asked, "Who are you? You can't know all this for no reason."
Qi Tongwei said calmly, "I've already said it, I'm a desperado, I just want money."
He raised his head slightly and looked directly at Long Can with undisguised greed in his eyes.
"And you can give me what I want. You've been in this business for so many years, so you must know many ways to make money. If I just follow you, I can get a piece of the pie. This is a win-win situation for us."
This sentence seemed to give Long Can the leverage to control Qi Tongwei.
He immediately smiled, a smile that held a hint of pride and cunning. "So, you still have to rely on me. Without me, you can't do anything. Do you think this organ trade is so easy to interfere with? It's a very complicated matter."
Qi Tongwei smiled, and his smile was full of confidence and composure.
"Wouldn't it be nice to work together to make money? We can cooperate and leverage each other. You have the resources, I have the guts. Let's do something big together and split the profits. It's so simple."
Long Can shook his head. "No, no, no, you're taking the money that belongs to me. I worked so hard to build this organ trading business. I've invested so much time and energy in it. How can I let you take half of it so easily?"
Qi Tongwei frowned. "Brother Long, you're too narrow-minded to think like that. Your current situation isn't good. The police have busted your lair, and you need someone to help you get back on your feet. I'm the one who can help you. By working together, we can not only make more money, but we can also take care of each other. If anyone comes looking for trouble, we can deal with it together."
Long Can snorted disdainfully.
"You talk so nicely. Who knows if you're lying to me? You suddenly show up and say you want to cooperate with me. How can I believe you? Maybe you're an undercover police agent, trying to catch me in one fell swoop."
Qi Tongwei thought for a moment, then said, "Brother Long, if you don't trust me, we can start a small business. Give me some resources and let me do it. If I succeed, you can decide whether to cooperate with me long-term. This way, you won't lose anything, right?"
After that, Qi Tongwei didn't say anything else and just sat quietly in front of Long Can.
His sitting posture seemed casual, but there was a sense of oppression from a superior position.
Qi Tongwei smoked one cigarette after another, and the swirling smoke spread between the two of them.
Every smoke ring he exhaled was like a silent question, making Long Can feel as if he was under invisible pressure.
Under this oppression, Long Can fell into a fierce inner struggle.
His eyes revealed hesitation, doubt and unwillingness.
He knew that his current situation was very difficult. Although Qi Tongwei, who suddenly appeared, was suspicious, he might really be someone he could cooperate with.
After all, he is in urgent need of rebuilding his own power, and Qi Tongwei's understanding of the organ trading channels makes him feel that this person may have extraordinary abilities.
After a few minutes, Long Can seemed to have figured it out.
He raised his head and looked at Qi Tongwei with a hint of caution in his eyes.
"It's okay to cooperate, but we need to discuss the profit sharing."
Qi Tongwei raised the corners of his mouth.
"no problem."
In terms of benefits, Long Can received an amount beyond his imagination.
Long Can and Qi Tongwei said, "You can't really make a lot of money from trafficking and begging children, but do you know why I keep supporting them?"
Qi Tongwei nodded. His expression seemed calm, but in fact he had already guessed what Long Can was going to say. However, he still had to cooperate with Long Can to continue acting.
The other person looked nonchalant, with a gleam of excitement in his eyes.
"Do you know how much their organs are worth?"
Qi Tongwei shook his head.
The other party directly raised two fingers.
"Twenty thousand?" Qi Tongwei asked tentatively, with a hint of surprise in his voice and his eyes slightly widened.
"Two hundred thousand." Long Can said this number proudly, his eyes full of desire for money and showing off this "business opportunity".
When Qi Tongwei heard this number, his eyes widened instantly. "Two hundred thousand? Are you kidding?"
He knew that organ trafficking was an extremely cruel and inhumane act, but he did not expect that in the eyes of these traffickers, the organs of innocent children would be priced so high.
