Chapter 3 — Two Teeth Under the Hoe Tree
"This... this is fake! It's definitely fake by Tran Ho!" She screamed, rushing forward like a crazy person. But I took precautions in advance. The moment she reached out, I rushed forward and bit her wrist. Bite him to death and don't let go. "Aaaa! Let go! You crazy thing!" Lam Uyen screamed in pain, using her other hand to smash my head. My scalp felt like it was being ripped apart, but I still didn't let go. I am Tran Ho's daughter. Dad once taught me: once you bite your prey, you absolutely must not let go. Trieu Quoc Cuong was still immersed in terrible shock, completely unable to react. I took advantage of Lam Uyen's screaming and struggling to pour out all the contents from the bottom of the box. A black USB. And a yellowed diary. The diary cover was stained with dark red dried blood stains. It's my father's blood. "This is the diary my father wrote over the past ten years..." I let go of Lam Uyen, my mouth filled with the smell of blood. The limp body slid down the wall, then handed the diary to Trieu Quoc Cuong. He trembled and opened the first page. 【October 1, 2014, sunny. Codename: Lone Wolf. Day 3,650 in hiding. I want to go home.】 【I miss Nhi Nha. I wonder if she knows how to call "daddy" today.】 【Captain Trieu, I'm sorry. But I had to be patient.】 Trieu Quoc Cuong's pupils constricted violently. "Code name... Lone Wolf?" He was the captain of the criminal police team - of course he knew who "Lone Wolf" was. That is the highest-ranking secret agent that the police installed inside the largest drug trafficking group in the Southwest. Also the only person who hid for ten years without being exposed — a legend. Police have always believed that the "Lone Wolf" had died. Or betrayal. No one expected... It was actually Tran Ho?! The name "gambler" is despised by the whole society? The name that you personally kicked out of the industry, and even wanted to pull the trigger and shoot you dead? At that moment, the sound of police sirens rang out outside. Many, many police cars drove by. The director led a special task force to break down the door and rush in. All were fully equipped, armed to the teeth. "Everyone stand still!" The director immediately saw the diary on the floor, along with the glass jar containing the finger. The famous steel warrior's eyes turned red in an instant. He strode forward, took off his hat on the spot, turned to the diary, and raised his hand in a serious salute. "Nghiem!" Behind him, the entire police force simultaneously raised their hands to salute. The director's voice was choked, but each word seemed to bounce off the ground: "Mr. Trieu, Quoc Cuong." "I solemnly inform you two." "Comrade Tran Ho - not a gambler, not an addict." "He is a special agent with the code name 'Lone Wolf' of the police force, number 08527." "For the past ten years, he has endured all kinds of humiliation, even though he was misunderstood by his relatives and the whole society. contemptuously, still never forgetting his oath. In Mr. Trieu's head, it was like a bomb exploded. He stared at the diary of the person he had scolded for ten years as an "animal". Before he could catch his breath, he fainted on the spot. "Dad!" Trieu Quoc Cuong did not have time to catch the old man, his eyes were still glued to the diary, like a crazy person flipping through the pages one by one. He wanted to find information about Trieu Man. He must find Man Man's whereabouts. His hands shook so much that he could not hold the paper. Finally, he turned to the page that recorded the story about Trieu Man. 【June 12, 2015, it was raining.】 【I found Man Man. She was locked in a water prison, tortured until she no longer had a human form.】 【I want to save her... but I can't reveal my identity. As long as I reveal myself, ten years of arrangement will collapse, and the blood of the brothers behind will be wasted.】 【Man Man recognized me. She didn't scream, but smiled at me.】
【She said: Tiger brother, don't worry about me. There are traitors inside. You have to live, you have to catch that person.】 【Man Man died in my arms. She forced me... to cut off her finger myself, as collateral to please the drug traffickers.】 【I cut it. My heart is broken too.】 【Man Man, I'm sorry. I will definitely take you home.】“Ah——!!!”Trieu Quoc Cuong knelt on the ground, screaming like a wounded animal. That scream was so pitiful that it gave the listener goosebumps. The person he hated for ten years — turned out to be the person who protected his sister. The person he scolded as trash for ten years — turned out to be a hero who silently endured everything. I pointed at Lam Uyen - whose face was pale, trying to sneak away from the place. "My father wrote in his diary." "That traitor, whose code name is Black Snake." "It's you." 6 Lam Uyen's steps stopped. Everyone's eyes were like headlights shining straight at her. Trieu Quoc Cuong raised his head, tears had not yet been wiped away, his eyes were replaced by shock and doubt. "Uyen Uyen...?" Lam Uyen turned around, the panic on her face had disappeared. Instead — there was a chilling calmness. She even smoothed her hair. "Quoc Cuong, do you believe the words of a crazy girl or do you believe me?" "I've been with you for five years, do you still not know who I am?" "It's all just a lie made up by Tran Ho, he wants to divide us!" She was still acting. The director didn't bother to say another word. He plugged the other USB into Trieu Quoc Cuong's laptop. A recording starts playing. It's a recording from ten years ago. The background sound is the sound of torrential rain, accompanied by electric shock noise. But a weak voice rang out in there - Trieu Quoc Cuong will never forget it in this life. It's Trieu Man. "Brother Tiger... remember... the insider is Lam Uyen..." "She sold our route to drug traffickers... for money... also because she wanted to replace me..." "Brother Tiger... protects our child... her name is Niem... Trieu Niem..." The recording ended. In the living room, only the crackling sound of electricity echoed, like a saw cutting into everyone's hearts. Trieu Quoc Cuong raised his head to look at me, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief. His eyes seemed to pop out of their sockets, his lips trembled, and he couldn't utter a word for half a day. I am your nephew. It is the flesh and blood of Trieu Man's younger sister that he has been searching for for ten years. He remembered the image of me kneeling on a pile of broken glass, my face bloody, just begging him to wait one more minute. I remember when I tried to explain, he covered my mouth and Lam Uyen poured soap down his throat. "Niem... Niem Niem?" He made a strange sound, not sure if it was laughing or crying. Pop! He slapped himself so hard that half of his face immediately became swollen. Feeling it wasn't enough, he gave it another blow. Pop! The corner of his mouth bled, but he did not feel pain. He knelt and crawled towards me, reaching out his hand to hug me. "Nim Niem... you are wrong... you deserve to die..." His hands were full of sweat and dirt. I stepped back slightly, avoiding that hand. "Uncle Trieu, my name is Tran Nhi Nha." "I'm not Trieu Niem." Trieu Quoc Cuong's hand stopped in midair. The pain in his heart was as if someone had pulled a piece out of him. At this moment, Lam Uyen knew that he could no longer save him. She tore off the gentle mask and rushed towards me with a face twisted with hatred. I don't know when, she had an eyebrow knife in her hand. "Bastard! You go to hell!" She was about to take me hostage. But the task force responded much faster. Before she could touch the hem of my shirt, several black guns were pointed straight at my forehead. "Stop!" Two special agents immediately rushed in.
came and used a professional lock to pin her to the floor. Her face was glued to the ground, her facial features were forced to deform. "Let me go! I'm wronged! It's a fake recording!" Lam Uyen was still screaming madly, trying to deny her guilt to the end. The director looked at her coldly. "Lin Uyen, codename 'Black Snake'." "Your overseas account just received a large sum of money yesterday — from an international drug trafficking organization." "Do you have anything else to say?" Lam Uyen turned to look at Trieu Quoc Cuong in despair, trying to play the last emotional card. "Quoc Cuong... save me... I love you..." Trieu Quoc Cuong slowly stood up. He stepped in front of Lam Uyen. Looking at that beautiful face - where a heart as black as darkness was hidden. "Love me?" Trieu Quoc Cuong suddenly burst into laughter - a smile more painful than tears. "You love me, that's why you hate my sister?" "You love me, that's why you torture my niece?" "You love me, so you make me hate my benefactor for ten years?" He suddenly raised his foot and kicked Lam Uyen straight in the chest. A kick with all the strength and hatred accumulated for ten years. "Ah!!!" Lam Uyen howled in agony, blood pouring out of her mouth, her whole body convulsing like a trampled worm. The special police team didn't say a word and dragged her out like a dead dog. The Trieu family fell silent again. Only the sound of Mr. Trieu's heavy breathing remained. He was awake. But it would be better... he never woke up.
