Chapter 766: Chapter 766

The people from Thirteen Gates initially wanted to have a do-or-die battle with Ding Fan.

But in the end, they hadn't expected that all of them combined were no match for him, and in just an instant, they had all been slain by Ding Fan.

At this moment, Zhang Liang vomited outright.

Zhang Liang was nothing but a spoiled young master. When had he ever seen a scene ? The entire resting room was akin to the Asura's hell, with blood everywhere. And human limbs.

As soon as Zhang Liang threw up, Du Lei beside him also started to vomit. Influenced by this, Hao Jie also couldn't stop throwing up.

Zhang Wanyue and Qin Manshu, on the other hand, didn't have any reaction.

The Medicine Pill Ding Fan had given them had a significant calming effect, so they weren't as disheveled as the others.

"Brother Fan, what should we do next?" Qin Manshu came over and asked.

Qin Manshu wasn't just a pretty face, her thinking was quite thorough.

After all, Lao Jiang was the captain of this ship, and it wasn't right to sail without a captain. Qin Manshu expressed her concerns right away.

Ding Fan thought for a while and then said, "I think we should send a distress signal from the cabin."

Ding Fan was formidable, but things like operating a fishing boat were beyond him. Moreover, now that so many people had died on board, heading to Port City would cause even more troubles.

Qin Manshu nodded; it seemed there was no other choice but to do that for now.

"Manshu, you and Wanyue go to the captain's room and arrange to send the distress signal. I'll handle things here," Ding Fan said.

Qin Manshu nodded. They really couldn't help much with the situation here, so she and Zhang Wanyue went to send the distress signal.

Ding Fan then arranged for Zhang Liang and Du Lei to take away the unconscious Hao Wenyong and Hao Jie to rest in another resting room.

After everyone had left, Ding Fan didn't burn all the bodies at the scene as he usually would have.

Zhang Liang and Du Lei had both seen that if they tampered with the bodies, they would bring trouble upon themselves. What Ding Fan did instead was to search the bodies for any valuables.

Not long after Qin Manshu and Zhang Wanyue sent out the distress signal, a maritime patrol boat arrived.

Ding Fan had just finished cleaning up the battlefield.

Now that official personnel had come, he could leave the rest to them.

The coastguards gathered everyone on the deck. After all, they needed to understand the situation.

"Officer, help us, we have a homicidal maniac on board; you must save us..."

And no sooner had everyone assembled, even before the coastguards could ask any questions, Zhang Liang stepped forward.

Zhang Liang was sniveling and sobbing as if he had been deeply wronged.

Ding Fan was extremely clever and immediately understood what Zhang Liang was attempting to do as soon as he made his move.

The other party wanted to use the coastguards to deal with him...

Ding Fan's gaze grew intense.

This Zhang Liang was scheming against him. Initially, Ding Fan had thought about sparing him in consideration of Zhang Guanglin and Zhang Wanyue, but now his mind had changed.

He wasn't afraid of a thief stealing, but feared a thief coveting. Who could assure that this ant wouldn't bite him at a critical moment?

While Zhang Liang was sobbing, Du Lei and Hao Jie also stood up.

"Officer, please, save us, we have a murderer here..."

"Don't be afraid, if there's a problem,"

"Officer, it's that man, he killed ten people in the third-floor resting room..." Zhang Liang pointed at Ding Fan and said, "Officer, you must not let him go..."

"Zhang Liang!" Zhang Wanyue truly hadn't expected Zhang Liang to turn against Ding Fan at this time.

"Zhang Liang, if it weren't for Brother Fan, we would have died there. Brother Fan did it to protect us," Zhang Wanyue said.

Zhang Liang sneered scornfully. "Zhang Wanyue, you think I don't know? You just like Ding Fan, and now you want to stand with him and help him escape the blame. But I'll tell you, to kill is to repay with one's life; this has been the rule through the ages."

Zhang Wanyue didn't expect Zhang Liang to accuse her of liking Ding Fan, and her pretty face instantly flushed with anger. "Zhang Liang, you're talking nonsense..."

Qin Manshu stepped forward as well. "Officer, I can testify to what happened just now; Ding Fan acted to protect us..."

"Qin Manshu, don't try to cover up for him. I know you're from the Qin family of the Four Great Families, and you're Ding Fan's fiancée, but let me tell you, even your Qin family won't be able to save Ding Fan this time. Killing ten people in one go... he's simply a homicidal maniac..." Zhang Liang argued.

By revealing Qin Manshu's identity as a member of the Four Great Families, Zhang Liang aimed to escalate the situation.

If the police didn't arrest Ding Fan due to fear of the Qin family's influence, once the media caught wind of it, even the Qin family would succumb to the pressure of public opinion.

The scariest thing in Huaxia Country now was public opinion. Even if you were a high-ranking official, you wouldn't dare to act recklessly under the media's scrutiny.

Zhang Wanyue looked at Zhang Liang's behavior, furious.

Back when Lao Jiang was present, Zhang Liang was too scared to even fart, and now, with the arrival of the coastguards, the first one to bite Ding Fan was him.

"Zhang Liang, you've gone too far..."

Zhang Liang laughed. "Too far? It's not over yet... Officer, you can send someone to check the third-floor resting room; a look will clarify everything, won't it?"

"Take two people to investigate the third-floor resting room," the coastguard leader ordered two of his subordinates.

The two coastguards immediately jogged up the stairs.

It didn't take long before the two coastguards came back down. "Report to the captain, there are indeed ten bodies in the third-floor resting room..."

Zhang Liang spoke up again at this time. "I can attest that those ten people were all pleading for mercy, but Ding Fan was relentless, and he killed every one of them! And he even dismembered them..."

"Yes, yes, I can confirm that too," Du Lei said from the side. "Those ten people were desperately begging for their lives, but Ding Fan still went on a frenzy and killed them all."

The other people on the cruise began to whisper amongst themselves.

"Is this guy insane? He killed ten people in one go and even dismembered them..."

"How can we be on the same cruise as someone , it's too horrifying..."

Qin Manshu frowned deeply at this time.

If she just let them stir up trouble , it wouldn't be easy to handle what was to come.

Even with all the power of Qin family, if they stoked the situation into a frenzy, there was no way they could protect Ding Fan.

At this point, the person in charge of the coast guard had nothing more to say. "Take this guy into custody."

After the head of the coast guard spoke, two coast guards walked directly toward Ding Fan.

"Hold it, I now command you to detain all of them," Ding Fan said forcefully.

Ding Fan's presence was formidable, and as soon as he issued his command, the two officers who were about to arrest Ding Fan indeed halted in their tracks, intimidated.

"Ding Fan, do you think just because you're the head of Huaxia Company and have the backing of the Qin family that you can act high and mighty?" Zhang Liang said from the side. "You don't really think you're so powerful that you can give orders to the coast guard, do you?"

Without wasting any more words, Ding Fan directly took a small notebook out from his chest.

That notebook was naturally the military ID from the 3567 team. Ding Fan threw the small notebook to the person in charge of the coast guard.

The notebook seemed to have eyes, landing right in the hands of the head of the coast guard.

The head of the coast guard flipped through the military ID. When he saw 'Instructor with the rank of Major in team 3567', his face became stern...

Zhang Liang and Du Lei were unaware of Ding Fan's 3567 team identity.

When these two men left the lounge, they had already plotted to set up Ding Fan.

The two of them understood clearly that with Ding Fan having killed so many people, they could use the coast guard's blade to slay Ding Fan.

Hao Wenyong had not woken up at all, and Hao Jie, beguiled and bewildered by Zhang Liang and Du Lei, had also followed them.

In Zhang Liang and Du Lei's eyes, Ding Fan was certain to be taken away this time.

Zhang Liang had even started imagining the content in tomorrow's newspapers.

Head of Huaxia Group goes mad on a cruise, savagely chops up and dismembers ten people...

With such a headline out, Zhang Liang was certain that not even the Qin family's people, let alone the second or first leader, would be able to save Ding Fan...

But things didn't go as Zhang Liang and Du Lei had expected. After reviewing Ding Fan's military ID, the coastguard in charge who had wanted to arrest Ding Fan now stood respectfully in front of Ding Fan with a salute.

"Reporting to the officer, Huaxia Country's Marine Surveillance First Division is executing a task, team leader Ma Debiao!" The person in charge of the coast guard reported to Ding Fan very formally.

Both Zhang Liang, Du Lei, Hao Jie, and even Zhang Wanyue were stunned.

What was happening? These coast guards not arresting Ding Fan was one thing, but why were they saluting and reporting to him?

"Arrest Zhang Liang and Du Lei," Ding Fan said with a serious expression.

Upon hearing Ding Fan's order, Ma Debiao promptly saluted. "Yes, sir!"

With a wave of Ma Debiao's hand, four coast guards rushed over and unceremoniously took Zhang Liang and Du Lei into custody.

At this moment, Du Lei was completely dumbfounded, unable to utter a word.

Zhang Liang, however, was still struggling. "You... on what grounds are you arresting me? Are you coast guards too afraid of a big shot, so you don't dare to arrest him? I'm telling you, if you don't release me, I guarantee by tomorrow the whole Huaxia Country will know about this affair, and we'll see if you can get away with it..."

Ma Debiao, upon hearing Zhang Liang's words, furrowed his brows slightly.

If there really was no reason to arrest Zhang Liang, then it would indeed be a tricky situation if they got hold of some leverage against them. He immediately looked over at Ding Fan.

"There's certainly a reason to arrest you," Ding Fan said. "You're familiar with the matter of Red Spider, aren't you?"

When he heard these three words, Zhang Liang was thoroughly shocked.

He had secretly hired people from Red Spider to kill Ding Fan, and before setting off to sea, he had also secretly contacted the Red Spider...

But how did Ding Fan become aware of Red Spider?

"I... I don't know..." Zhang Liang still tried to hold out. Googlᴇ search 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒•𝙣𝙚𝙩

"That's easy," Ding Fan walked up to Zhang Liang and then took out Zhang Liang's phone.

"What... what are you doing..." Zhang Liang, restrained by the coast guard, couldn't move.

Ding Fan directly made a call using Zhang Liang's phone.

Once the call was connected, Ding Fan pressed the speakerphone.

"The person you ordered us to kill, we can't touch... We will return the deposit you gave us..."

At this moment, Zhang Liang's face drained of all color, and he collapsed...
