Chapter 825 Xu Damao was beaten by Xiao Lei
Xu Damao stood there, cursing non-stop. Deputy Director Li had been out for quite a while, yet he still hadn't paid any attention to him. This made Xu Damao feel more and more that something was wrong. His brow furrowed, his eyes revealing a hint of anxiety and confusion. He wondered to himself, "What is going on? Has Deputy Director Li forgotten me? Or is there some other conspiracy?" All sorts of speculations raced through his mind, leaving him feeling upset.
Just as Xu Damao was lost in his thoughts, Xiao Lei walked towards him at a leisurely pace. Xiao Lei looked indifferent, as if he didn't take Xu Damao seriously. He said coldly, "Xu Damao, get out of my way. You're blocking my way."
Xu Damao was already in a bad mood, and being interrupted by Xiao Lei made him furious. He glared at Xiao Lei with wide eyes and cursed, "You little brat, go somewhere cool and don't bother me here. I'm thinking about my own things, don't mess with me." Xu Damao didn't take Xiao Lei seriously at all, thinking that he was just an ignorant child who dared to provoke him.
Xiao Lei was secretly delighted. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for. Seeing Xu Damao so arrogant, he was even more determined to teach him a lesson. Xiao Lei raised his head, looked at Xu Damao fearlessly, and said in a firm tone: "Xu Damao, when did this become your territory? I advise you to be smart and get out of here right now."
Xu Damao was furious when he heard this. He had never imagined that this little brat would dare to speak to him like that. He thought to himself, "How can I not beat a kid? I have to teach you a lesson today." With this thought, Xu Damao rolled up his sleeves and walked towards Xiao Lei with a fierce look on his face.
However, what Xu Damao didn't know was that Xiao Lei was no ordinary child. Xiao Lei had been practicing martial arts since he was young, and he was very agile and had a solid foundation in martial arts. How could an ordinary person like Xu Damao compare to him?
Xiao Lei dodged Xu Damao's attack with a swift movement, then unleashed a beautiful spinning kick that landed directly on his leg. Xu Damao stumbled and nearly fell to the ground. Before he could react, Xiao Lei unleashed another barrage of attacks, knocking him to the ground in just two or three seconds.
Xu Damao fell to the ground, grimacing in pain. He was about to open his mouth to scream for help when Xiao Lei, quick-witted and quick-handed, put a knife to Xu Damao's neck. The cold blade pressed against his skin, making him shudder. Xiao Lei's eyes were cold as he whispered a threat, "Be honest and don't say anything, or I won't mind cutting a hole in your neck and killing you."
Xu Damao was already timid and afraid of death, and with the knife at his neck, he turned pale. Trembling all over, he cried, "I know I was wrong. Don't worry, I won't say anything. Please, don't kill me." He was filled with fear, hoping Xiao Lei would let him go.
Seeing Xu Damao completely terrified, Xiao Lei knew he couldn't really beat him to death. After all, he had other plans, so he had to torture him slowly. So, Xiao Lei put away his knife, sat aside and began to rest. He thought to himself that by now his boss should have paid the money as planned, and the hospital should be preparing to perform surgery on his boss's relatives. Thinking of this, Xiao Lei's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smug smile.
At this critical moment in the standoff between Xu Damao and Xiao Lei, a steady sound of footsteps approached from afar. A prison guard, hands behind his back, approached slowly. He glanced back and forth at Xu Damao and Xiao Lei, a scrutinizing look on his face as he asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Xu Damao opened his mouth, ready to tell the prison guard about his grievances, but he caught a glimpse of Xiao Lei's eagle-like eyes fixed on him, and his heart tightened. He hesitated, forced an awkward smile, and said, "It's okay, officer. It was just getting dark, and the light in this cell is poor. I accidentally fell. It's nothing serious." He finished, brushing off the nonexistent dust on his body with a casual air.
Xiao Lei was secretly relieved when he heard Xu Damao say this. He knew in his heart that if Xu Damao talked nonsense and revealed the truth, it would be a big trouble, and he might also be in trouble.
The prison guards were no pushovers. Having worked in this prison for years, they'd seen all sorts of things. He glanced at Xu Damao's shambolic appearance, then at Xiao Lei's feigned composure, and he understood what was going on. However, he didn't want to get involved; after all, this kind of thing wasn't uncommon in prison. So, he snorted coldly, turned around, and walked away without saying anything more.
After the prison guard's figure completely disappeared at the end of the corridor, Xiao Lei came over with a swagger, looked Xu Damao up and down, and said with a satisfied smile on his face, "Not bad, Xu Damao, you did a good job on this matter. You are quite sensible."
Xu Damao was filled with fear at this moment. Looking at the ferocious Xiao Lei in front of him, he asked in a trembling voice, "I don't know, Boss, who are you working for? Why are you doing this to me?"
Xiao Lei raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said with a half-smile: "Xu Damao, who did you offend? Don't you know the answer?"
After hearing this, Xu Damao began to think hard in his mind. He knew he had indeed offended many people over the years, but when he thought about it carefully, many people didn't have the ability to do anything to him in prison. In his opinion, the only people who could do that were Gu Nan, Deputy Director Li, and Lou Bancheng.
Xu Damao pondered for a moment and decided that Gu Nan wasn't that kind of person. In his impression, Gu Nan had always been aboveboard, whether dealing with people or planning things. He had never seen him resort to any schemes or tricks. With this in mind, he ruled Gu Nan out.
However, Xu Damao hesitated between Lou Bancheng and Deputy Director Li. He frowned, carefully weighing the two possibilities. After a long pause, he looked up at Xiao Lei and tentatively asked, "Did Deputy Director Li ask you?"
Xiao Lei was ordered not to reveal the name of the mastermind behind the incident, so he just nodded without saying another word.
Seeing Xiao Lei's tacit agreement, Xu Damao immediately understood. He thought to himself that he had simply lost the fight with Deputy Director Li, but he hadn't expected Deputy Director Li to be so petty and even have someone in prison to deal with him. It seemed that he was afraid that he would say something after he got out and ruin his plans. Thinking of this, Xu Damao looked at Xiao Lei and quickly said, "I know who it is. Don't worry, I won't say anything."
