Background

What is going on? Could it be that the heavens have finally opened their eyes and helped her take care of these loan sharks?

Southern Black Continent.

In the middle of a dense tropical rainforest, a clearing suddenly appeared, artificially carved out of the wilderness. At the center of this clearing lay a massive complex of concrete buildings. Along the outermost perimeter, one could see a multitude of towers standing tall, where several Black men carrying rifles stood, peering through binoculars at the surrounding grounds.

On these towers, there were also machine guns covered by camouflage netting, and in some of the open spaces, one could even spot anti-aircraft missiles hidden under tarps.

Inside a three-story villa at the very heart of the complex, several white men wearing sunglasses were playing poker, killing time in boredom.

"Boss, our kidnapping plan failed, and our stronghold in Jiaodong City, Xia Kingdom, has been wiped out by the police!" At that moment, a young man with a scar across his face rushed into the villa's living room.

"What did you say? Our stronghold was taken out by the police?"

"And what about the target? Was that handled?" Several white men threw down their cards and crowded around the scarred man.

"No. Not only was the target not secured, but even some of the transport vehicles we had already prepared were seized by the police," the scarred man shook his head, speaking with bitter resentment.

"Damn it! Investigate! I want to know the ins and outs of this matter!" The gang leader, who had been watching television, slapped the coffee table and stood up abruptly, the rolls of fat on his face trembling with rage.

Back then, when they discovered that one of the borrowers at a loan company they owned was the daughter of the chairman of a large shipping firm, they had set their sights on her.

What do they value most in the drug trade? Only three things: the source of the drugs, the transport channels, and the sales channels!

If they could successfully capture the shipping chairman's daughter, they would be able to eliminate a great deal of trouble regarding their transport routes.

But who would have thought that the duck, already so close to their mouths, would actually fly away!

"If it's gone, it's gone. Don't send any more people to that city. The police in Xia Kingdom have been cracking down quite hard lately; we must ensure the safety of our strongholds in other cities!" The gang leader quickly calmed down. Since the plan was no longer viable, it was better to abandon it decisively. Continuing to meddle would likely expose their other locations.

The scarred underling was stunned. He had expected the boss to send people to settle the score, but he never imagined it would be brushed off so lightly!

In Jiaodong City, Xia Kingdom, Tang Shizhe was sitting in his study, flipping through documents.

As for that drug dealer, his Three-Tail Gang would certainly not let him off. Regardless of whether the threat was real or not, he had to prepare in advance!

If the leader of the Three-Tail Gang knew Tang Shizhe's thoughts, he would surely burst into tears. He had clearly backed off, yet the muzzle of the gun had somehow managed to point itself at him anyway.

"The Three-Tail Gang, founded in South America in 1958. After losing a shadow war against Mexican drug cartels, they left South America in 1994 and relocated to the Black Continent, where they subsequently grew and expanded."

"Now entrenched in the Victosnazi Republic, after more than twenty years of development, they have secretly gained control over the republic's military, becoming the largest power organization in the region."

"Not only that, they have also coerced the citizens of the republic to cultivate drugs, which are then processed locally into finished products and secretly shipped to all corners of the world through the ports of the Victosnazi Republic."

"The Three-Tail Gang doesn't just deal in drugs; they also operate arms and human trafficking businesses in the Black Continent. They abduct people from developing countries to sell to developed nations or any country with a demand."

"Every year, the black-market revenue this group generates from drugs, weapons, and human trafficking alone reaches tens of billions of dollars!"

"Aside from using these funds to bribe the soldiers and officials of the Victosnazi Republic, they use them to consolidate the group's military strength."

"Currently, the Three-Tail Gang not only possesses a large number of retired soldiers from all over the world, but also employs quite a few retired special forces operatives from the Eagle Kingdom to serve as their instructors. It is no exaggeration to say that they are a behemoth on the Black Continent, entrenched at its southern tip." Tang Shizhe smacked his lips and closed the file.

No matter how powerful this organization was, he did not fear them!

Although he could not go head-to-head with the Three-Tail Gang with his current strength, he had more than enough to protect himself in Jiaodong City.

This was only the beginning of his development; Tang Shizhe was confident that in a few years, he would be able to crush the Three-Tail Gang completely.

After this period of continuous splitting, Tang Shizhe now had twenty Splitters under his command, from Tang Yi to Tang Twenty. These Splitters were all balanced entities.

In addition, there were four death-sworn guards, and these four were enough to ensure Tang Shizhe's safety within the city.

Time flew by, and school had been in session for a week. Tang Shizhe had naturally skipped the first week of classes.

Feeling that if he didn't show up, he might be demonized by rumors, Tang Shizhe rode his old second-hand electric scooter toward the school, feeling quite leisurely.

The reason he still rode the electric scooter to school was to maintain a low profile. Showing off right now wouldn't provide enough of a shock to others!

Only when his enterprise had truly developed would it be the right time for him to show off!

Ten minutes later, Tang Shizhe arrived at the teaching building. After parking his scooter in the shed, he thought for a moment and finally took off the watch that Tang Yi had brought back from abroad.

He stuffed the watch into his pocket, then fished out the sports car key from his keychain and shoved that into his pocket as well. Only then did Tang Shizhe clap his hands in satisfaction.

When he arrived at the classroom, he couldn't believe his eyes.

Yin Qi, who had always appeared in the back row with punk and non-mainstream attire, had changed into a light coffee-colored lady's suit today. Her long black hair was draped casually over her shoulders, and the smoky makeup on her face had vanished. A light touch of lipstick was all she wore, revealing her natural beauty to the fullest.

"What's wrong?" Yin Qi asked, feigning innocence as she watched Tang Shizhe's gaze.

"Nothing." Tang Shizhe rubbed his forehead; he was still having trouble adjusting to seeing Yin Qi dressed so beautifully.

"Tang Shizhe~ let's discuss something." After Tang Shizhe sat down, Yin Qi seemed not to notice the surprised gazes of those around them. She shifted a meter to the left to sit beside him, grabbed his arm with her right hand, and swayed it.

"What is it? Let me say this first: if it involves selling my body, I'm not doing it." Tang Shizhe pretended to be a man of integrity, glancing at Yin Qi's exposed cleavage with a righteous expression.

"It's a small matter, a small matter~"

"Lend me your Porsche for a week starting tomorrow. I want to slap the faces of those who once looked down on me, using my academic grades, my appearance, and my wealth! Just thinking about it feels great!" Yin Qi waved her fist, her eyes curving into crescent moons with excitement.

"Fine, fine. Give me an address, and I'll drive the car over to you tomorrow." Tang Shizhe nodded. Since he didn't intend to show off at this stage, the luxury car was of no use to him anyway; he might as well lend it to Yin Qi.

The two chatted quietly under the watchful eyes of the teacher on the podium, but the teacher felt somewhat helpless about them. After all, the two students chatting in class were the first and second place students from the previous semester.

Although, because it was a university, teachers generally didn't announce class rankings unless you asked, so it was hard for others to know where they stood.

However, these teachers were very attentive to the situations of the students they would be teaching in the coming semester, and the two "good students" who had successfully made a comeback to the top two spots were their primary focus.

Knowing that both had strong self-study abilities, and since they were in the back row and not disrupting the other students, the teacher simply turned a blind eye and stopped bothering them.
