Love Chase

128 -Difficult Enemy?!

* * *

Laotian crossed his leg after picking up his glass of scotch whiskey and ice before he looked at Tian Zi who was pouring himself a glass as well. They had already finished eating dinner, they also chatted a bit while doing so, so now it is time to talk about the real reason why this youngest brother of his came personally to ask for help since this was definitely nothing like.

His eyes wandered to the envelope on the table that was placed by the young Alpha when they came inside the room but Laotian waited patiently because it was not that he was in a rush. Still, he was really curious about what this was all about for his younger brother to act this way for the first time.

With his sharp and observing gaze, Laotian watched Tian Zi gulp all the liquor down his throat before putting the glass down on the wooden table. Since scotch is usually served in small amounts, there is no problem in gulping it down in one go if you don't mind the strong taste of it, however, it is a strong liquor that could knock someone down with just one shot. Laotian didn't mind the young Alpha drinking since he's already old enough to do so but he was afraid that Tian Zi would get drunk before he could tell him what he needed from him. Still, as calm as he is, he remained silent and continued to observe as he slowly sipped on his own drink.

"Eldest brother, like I said on the phone. I need your help," Tian Zi started, looking at Laotian seriously. Thankfully, it does not look like the liquor was strong enough for him to get drunk instantly.

"Yes. What is it that you need then?" Laotian asked since he knew that already, what he wanted to know was what kind of help was needed from him.

"I think you already know but Fyre used to be involved with dangerous people. I want you to help me take them down because I don't have power when it comes to these kinds of things. I'm only good with data gathering but when it comes to dangerous situations, I don't know much," Tian Zi said but Laotian didn't reply. Honestly, he wouldn't mind helping. However, considering that Tian Zi came to him for this just means it's something he could not handle himself, meaning just like he said, it is a very dangerous task that could cost lives.

Unfortunately, if he was to deal with something 'dangerous', he was afraid his family would get involved again. Laotian had been staying low profile even though he still did illegal transactions because he didn't want Daniel to get worried. After all, he promised the Omega back then that he would be careful and that he won't be involving himself with dangerous activities. But then again, it's not like he could just leave Tian Zi handle something he couldn't.

"They haven't done anything yet but I'm anxious. I did some thorough digging and this is what I've found." Tian Zi added and pushed the envelope he had on his side of the table to Laotian's. Laotian continued to stay silent as he took the files and read through them. And as he did, a headache slowly crept inside his head and a deep frown formed on his forehead.

"These people are the same people that are causing today's uproar. Human trafficking, Drugs, slavery, firearms, corruption... They could get away with it because there were so many influential individuals who had been covering for them but after Fyre and I helped capture half of their protector to help Maverick with his situation, I'm guessing they're already on our tails. I also discovered that those men who were directly involved with Maverick were recently killed in their prison cells." Tian Zi informed while Laotian continued to read through the files and truthfully, he actually knew that those old men were killed as it was reported to him by his men since he especially involved himself with it for his wife.

Firstly the report came to him when one of them managed to escape the cell. It was reported that someone infiltrated the prison to help the man escape but the next day he was found dead on the roadside just outside the border to City Z. He was badly beaten up as if he was tortured. And then it was later again reported that the same had happened to the rest. Five policemen were even involved, four were critically injured and one died on the spot at the enemy infiltration and encounter.
