Chapter 236 Interrogation (2)

Lin Fan decided to take care of this matter afterwards because right now, there was something more urgent for him to take care of.

He had a date with someone who was waiting for him, so he didn't want to keep them waiting.

So he handed this matter over to his subordinates first.

He would send them over to where Xiao Ming's brothers and sisters were with some food and clothes before taking care of the protection money matter. As for their debts, it was easy for him to take the money to pay it, so he left this matter to Gu Xiang.

With Gu Xiang handling this matter, even if the loan sharks wanted to do anything, she could easily handle it.

After all, the Royal Style store was famous in this city and no one was foolish enough to mess with Gu Xiang, the famous manager of this store.

Lin Fan also sent Xiao Ming off with his subordinates just to make sure that the orphans wouldn't reject their help because they would be too cautious. After all, his subordinates were strangers to these orphans, so it was normal for these orphans to be wary.

After Xiao Ming and his subordinates left, Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao headed off to a building in the residential area.

This building was owned by Lin Fan through his store, but it wasn't where his subordinates lived.

This was a private residence that Gu Xiang had purchased for Lin Fan just in case he ever came to Fair White City and wanted to stay. Of course, there were ulterior motives that his subordinates had in buying this, but he didn't know about them.

Mainly, they felt that it was too embarrassing to do "that" in the dorm that they all lived in, so they wanted a private place for if the young master ever summoned them.

When Lin Fan arrived at the residence, he couldn't help being surprised by it.

It wasn't a small residence like he had expected, it was a completely refurbished manor. This place had multiple courtyards that many people and servants could live in, but it was also completely empty.

That was because they had saved this place just for Lin Fan's use, so there was no one currently living here.

But judging by the state of it, it was clear that someone came to clean this place every day…

Lin Fan couldn't help being surprised by how diligent his subordinates were…

At the same time, he was also surprised by just how much money his businesses were making.

He knew that Yue Lan was good at what she did, but he never expected that she would be this good. It was clear that this residence cost an arm and a leg, but they had been able to prepare this for him without even him saying anything ahead of time.

So it was clear that the store was raking in the cash.

Lin Fan couldn't help giving a sigh of praise as he thought, "It really was a good thing that I met Yue Lan back then."

If he had to manage this business and the dungeon town himself, he wouldn't even know where to start.

But there was also a tinge of guilt that filled him because he knew that he was pushing a lot of work onto Yue Lan.

He made up his mind that he would do something for her after he went back.

Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao went into the basement of this residence and entered the dungeon.

Lin Fan had been surprised to hear that there was a dungeon here, but he found out from his subordinates that this kind of place was common. It had been installed in this residence before they had even bought it.

This kind of residence was usually bought by large families and they would need these kinds of dungeons for many different purposes. So they had always been included when these kinds of residences were built.

Lin Fan couldn't help feeling strange about this, but he accepted that this was just how this world worked.

After they arrived in the dungeon, it didn't take them long to find Han Fu Rong since there was only one person in this entire dungeon.

He was sitting there in the cell with his hands chained up, sitting there with a dead look on his face.

He knew that he had been crippled and his cultivation had been ruined. He knew that even if he were to escape this place, he would no longer be able to do whatever he wanted since he was now a powerless mortal.

Returning to being a mortal after experiencing the might and influence of a cultivator was not something that he could do.

So as Han Fu Rong sat there, he was filled with despair.

But this was also what Lin Fan wanted to see.

The more that someone was in despair, if you gave them a way out, they would tell you what you wanted to hear.

So after letting Han Fu Rong stew for a bit and when he was ready for him, Lin Fan came to his cell with Mu Bao Bao.

When Han Fu Rong saw Mu Bao Bao, his eyes immediately lit up and he sat up to say, "Junior sister Mu, what are you doing? I am your senior brother, you can't do this to me!"

There was no shame in his voice at all, it was as if he completely believed his words.

Hearing this, Mu Bao Bao couldn't help revealing a look of disgust, but she quickly calmed her expression. She didn't say anything and just let Lin Fan take the lead in this interrogation.

Lin Fan didn't hesitate to slap Han Fu Rong on the face to shut him up since even he was disgusted by him. But more importantly, he knew how much this hurt Mu Bao Bao to hear, so he wanted to shut him up as quickly as possible.

Han Fu Rong only then saw Lin Fan and knew that this wouldn't be as easy as he thought. So he looked at Lin Fan and said, "This brother, I don't know who you are, but you've made a mistake. I am junior sister Mu's senior brother from the Love Sect. We're from the same sect, you shouldn't be treating me like this."

Lin Fan slapped him again and said, "I'll do the talking, you just have to answer."

As he said this, his eyes were filled with killing intent since he felt pain for Mu Bao Bao at this man's shame.

Sensing the chill run down his spine, Han Fu Rong shut his mouth and waited for Lin Fan to speak.

Even though he was in despair, the most important thing for Han Fu Rong was his own life.

To put it simply, he was a coward and his life was the most important thing for him. That was the main reason why he had betrayed the Love Sect in the first place.

So even when he had been in despair over losing his cultivation, he had never once thought about killing himself. The only thing that he thought about was how to get out of this situation and find a way to put himself in a high position again.

No matter which world it was, this kind of person would be called scum by everyone.

Lin Fan looked at him with cold eyes and asked, "Have you met anyone else from the Love Sect yet?"

Han Fu Rong answered immediately, "I haven't met anyone yet. I've been looking for…"

Before he could finish, he received another slap to the face. Lin Fan simply said in a cold voice, "You're lying."

Han Fu Rong was surprised to hear this firm tone from Lin Fan, but he knew that if he betrayed the ones that he had betrayed the Love Sect for, he wouldn't be able to live much longer. So he still said, "This brother, I'm not lying. I've been looking for traces of…"

There was another slap to the face that cut him off before Lin Fan said, "You're lying."

Han Fu Rong's heart filled with a chill when he experienced this.

He once again heard the certain tone in Lin Fan's voice and he couldn't understand why Lin Fan was so certain, but he knew that if he were to try to lie to him again…

So with no other choice, Han Fu Rong tried probing Lin Fan by saying, "This brother, I've only met junior brother Gu during this time. I swear, he just came to the city and after learning that I had no information, he left to…"

Lin Fan once again slapped him before saying, "You're still lying."

Han Fu Rong's heart turned even colder.

He couldn't tell just how much Lin Fan knew, but…now he was certain that Lin Fan already had obtained information before capturing him…

So now there was the question of, how much did Lin Fan know?

Han Fu Rong felt like he had been frozen in ice when he thought this through, but he was still a fool as he tried testing Lin Fan again, "Alright, alright, I also met junior brother Yu, but that's it!"

Mu Bao Bao's eyes trembled when she heard this since she didn't know this, but Lin Fan was able to keep calm with his Mental Fortitude skill. He raised his hand to stop Mu Bao Bao from rushing forward like she had been planning on doing, but then he brought that hand back to slap Han Fu Rong.

This slap was unlike the other slaps, this was a slap that Lin Fan had used a wide swing with, so it was much stronger than before. Han Fu Rong's head twisted and he was almost picked up off the floor. If it hadn't been for the chains holding him down, perhaps he might have been sent flying.

Lin Fan's eyes were as cold as thousand year old ice as he said in a voice that was like the devil's, "Last chance. Tell me everything or you won't have a good time."

As he said this, he pulled out Gramr and put it near one of Han Fu Rong's hands.

Han Fu Rong trembled and by accident, he cut his hand on the sword. Luckily it was only a shallow cut, so there was only a bit of blood that came out, but the pain was more than enough to tell him that this was a real blade.

Han Fu Rong's heart completely fell at this moment and he started blurting out everything that he knew.

By the end of it, there were only looks of disgust on Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao's faces as they walked out.

As for Han Fu Rong, they didn't bother dirtying their hands by taking him out, so they just left him there.

They were certain that the junior brothers and sisters would want to deal with him once they were rescued.
