Crime Prison Island

The big-bearded man searched nonstop within the mansion,

hopping up and down, turning over every room on the first floor before moving to the second.

Gao Xin just lay there on the central marble staircase, not even covered by a board, directly exposed, and the big-bearded man passed by several times without suspecting him.

After all, it was he who had discovered the body and personally stabbed it with an ax.

Unless there was a significant difference or inconsistency, the big-bearded man would hardly consider that the body had been switched.

Even when looking directly at it, he might automatically ignore it.

As time ticked away, minute by minute.

Periodically, the big-bearded man would capture someone.

One by one, he found three more "rats."

Not counting Gao Xin, that left two rats still in hiding.

Judging by the sounds, one of the remaining unfound was the bald man, and the other was Liu Xu.

Gao Xin silently thought that these two really had some tricks up their sleeves, able to hide so well. Could it be that they had found a secret area?

"Fuck, where are the people! Where are the three rats hiding!"

"Or, perhaps the collars are not on the rats' necks but buried somewhere?"

The big-bearded man grew increasingly irritated and eventually started to destroy everything, wielding a mechanical battle-axe and crazily splitting open every decoration.

He would dig three feet into the ground if he must, just to find the collars.

And really, this tactic was effective.

When he smashed a statue, a woman's scream came from inside.

It turned out that the statue, seemingly seamless around the perimeter, actually had an entrance at the base.

After discovering it, Liu Xu tilted the statue and crawled in from below. Her slender figure just barely fit.

To ensure ventilation, she drilled several inconspicuous holes, allowing her to last until now.

Unfortunately, merely hiding is a strategy with a very low survival rate.

If the Radiator is unopposed and searches desperately, destroying everything, he will always find them.

"Fuck, no cat either!"

The big-bearded man threw Liu Xu into the hall and continued to chop and destroy everything.

Gao Xin suddenly felt a tightness in his heart because he sensed that the big-bearded man was furiously chopping every single step!

Obviously, the fact that a person could hide inside the steps made him suspect that there could be a second hollow step.

He was planning to use the exhaustion method, smashing all the staircase steps!

"This is bad..."

Gao Xin could hear the sound getting closer and closer and lamented in his heart that he was out of options.

Thud, thud, thud, each strike of the axe felt like it was hitting his heart, getting closer and closer.

Suddenly, a roar erupted from the courtyard.

A commotion followed.

"Dongcan brother!" the masked short man cried out, "Xiba, I'll fight you to the end!"

Gao Xin's heart stirred. Was the fight finally over?

It seemed that the burly knife-wielding man was dead.

"Hahaha!" Silver Hand's laugh, distinctive and recognizable, was wild and insane.

Gao Xin thought to himself that two against one ended with a counter-kill of one, showcasing Silver Hand's prowess.

Once the burly knife-wielding man was dead, the other would soon follow.

The strength of the four was probably on the same level, but to be specific, Silver Hand was the strongest, followed by the big-bearded man, then Dongcan brother in third place, with the weakest being the short man.

At first, the short man's darts were quite impressive, but once the darts were used up, he clearly lacked direct confrontation skills.

When cooperating with the burly knife-wielder, he mainly played a supporting role, often needing the knife-wielder to protect him.

In hindsight, it's no wonder the two did not split up and did not, as Gao Xin suggested, one restrain Silver Hand while the other went to look for the cat like the big-bearded man did.

Probably because they were formidable together but not so individually, especially the short man, who couldn't beat any of the other three alone.

"Die! Hahaha!" Silver Hand howled and laughed maniacally.

Clearly, the big-bearded man also saw the battle in the courtyard.

He immediately stopped chopping the stairs and also ran to the courtyard, allowing Gao Xin a reprieve.

"Heh, how much longer can your 'Bloodthirsty Regeneration' last? It looks like you're about to die," the big-bearded man observed that his opponents were on their last legs.

Silver Hand sneered, "Really? Have you found the cat yet?"

"No need to look anymore, I'll slaughter you first!" The big-bearded man was also hot-tempered.

Unable to find Gao Xin and seeing that in the courtyard one was dead and the other two nearly spent, he decided to enter the fray and resolve the two remaining.

If both died, he would be the only Radiator left, free to do as he pleased. There would be plenty of time to dig three feet into the ground!

Gao Xin secretly breathed a sigh of relief; finally, one Radiator was down.

With the situation changed, the big-bearded man was drawn elsewhere.

The white big-bearded man was undoubtedly shrewd, avoiding the fight for so long. Seeing how formidable Silver Hand was, killing the knife-wielding brute, he couldn't sit still any longer.

If it were the weakest who died, he might have waited, but someone nearly as strong as him...

The big-bearded man would certainly enter the fray, first joining forces with the weakest to take down Silver Hand. As long as Silver Hand was eliminated, the remaining short man would be no concern.

For a time, Gao Xin heard even more intense fighting from the direction of the courtyard.

The current situation should be the big-bearded man teaming up with the short man, trying to kill Silver Hand.

"What? You have 'Bloodthirsty Regeneration'?"

Suddenly, the big-bearded man bellowed in surprise.

The short man also exclaimed, "You dare suck my Dongcan brother's blood!"

Silver Hand said hoarsely, "I intend not only to suck his blood but also to eat his flesh!"

"Fuck! This guy also has 'Blood and Flesh Integration'!" the big-bearded man exclaimed again.

"Quick, take the body back, or else he can keep recovering from his injuries and even use your brother's flesh as fuel for 'Bloodthirsty Regeneration'!"
