Chapter 496 We were tricked into this by Director Huang!
Rhino didn't reply, but clenched his fist tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force, and the veins bulging.
The cold cement floor seeped through his shoes, and the damp, musty smell unique to prison filled his nostrils, adding to his irritability.
He knew very well that he absolutely could not show weakness in this chaotic place. Once people saw that he was a pushover, he would be bullied so much that he would never be able to hold his head up again, and he might not even be able to eat a hot meal in peace.
Despite his rationality, he was actually quite uneasy.
The four of them were clearly tricked into this godforsaken place by Director Huang.
Actually, they had some dealings with Ye Haoxuan before. As long as Ye Haoxuan's name was mentioned, these people wouldn't dare to mess with them.
However, they all forgot for a moment.
Seeing that Rhino Hide remained silent, Scarface glanced at him menacingly and took a step forward.
A stench, a mixture of sweat, cheap tobacco, and an indescribable sour smell, hit him. Rhino Skin instinctively held his breath and shrank back almost imperceptibly.
"Brother, what kind of gang are you from?" Scarface's voice was hoarse and rough, like sandpaper rubbing against wood, carrying an undeniable sense of oppression. His gaze swept back and forth between the four men: Rhinoceros Hide, Big Earth, Flower Tower Cake, and Monk Fruit.
Da Shengdi felt a chill run down his spine, but he forced himself to appear fierce. He stiffened his neck, trying to project a stern expression, but his voice trembled slightly as he retorted:
There are four of us. Which one are you asking about?
The flower tower cake next to him immediately chimed in, and in a moment of impulsiveness, continued:
"Yes, there are four of us, which means there are four paths!"
Seeing this, Rhino Hide quickly chimed in to smooth things over, raising his chin in a gesture of feigned composure:
"Yes, you can tell from our accents."
He paused, deliberately lowered his voice, and adopted a menacing demeanor, "We are the flag bearers of Guangdong and Hong Kong!"
Scarface frowned, his eyes full of suspicion. His gaze finally fell on Luo Han Guo, who was huddled in the back. The fat man was round and chubby, with a somewhat honest face and evasive eyes. He didn't look like someone who had been around in the underworld at all.
Scarface pointed at the monk fruit and sneered, "That fat guy doesn't look like a gangster."
Rhino Skin's heart skipped a beat. He paused for a moment, then quickly weighed the pros and cons—he couldn't afford to be dragged down now.
He immediately pointed at the monk fruit and said with a look of disgust:
"Him? I don't know him."
After saying that, he pursed his lips and gestured with his eyes towards Dashengdi and Huatabing.
The two understood each other perfectly and took a few steps back to the corner, leaving the monk fruit alone there, as if drawing a clear line between themselves and the outside world.
Luo Han Guo watched their retreating figures, her lips trembled, and her eyes instantly reddened; she was on the verge of tears.
He felt both angry and aggrieved, and muttered to himself:
"This is so irresponsible! You guys are really unfair!"
Despite his complaints, Luo Han Guo had no choice but to brace himself and force a fierce expression on his face—his brows furrowed and his eyes wide open. But the expression on his round face was not frightening at all; instead, it looked rather comical.
Standing next to Scarface was a tall, burly prisoner with a booming voice like muffled thunder, who roared:
"Fatty, stop playing dumb! What gang are you on? Tell me the truth!"
