"You...how do you know?!"

Seeing Liston's face change suddenly, looking in disbelief, Lu Qi couldn't help but show an extremely bright smile for the second time,

Lu Qi patted his face gently with his hand and said:

"Yes, I know that the video tape is in your safe, and the location of the safe is behind the oil painting on the bedroom wall."

"Do you really think you can easily get five million by sending a text message to blackmail your ex-girlfriend?"

"that's all?"

"Oh, you are so naive..."

Standing up, Lu Qi glanced at the black man shoveling the soil beside him, and then said:

"Jeremy, you know, you should have stopped after taking the five hundred thousand. In that case, what happened today wouldn't have happened..."

Click...click...

The noise in his ears made Liston turn his head and look aside.

When he also saw Rick's busy figure shoveling soil and digging holes, he couldn't help but be startled, as if he thought of something, and his face suddenly turned pale.

"He...what is he doing?!"

"Oh, you mean that pit? Of course it's prepared for you!"

Hearing this, Liston's mind immediately imagined a scene in which he was thrown into a pit and buried alive.

The feeling of being submerged bit by bit by the soil seemed to have filled his entire brain.

This frightened him so much that he shivered all over and his lower body became cold. Unknowingly, a large amount of liquid leaked out of his crotch.

He is incontinent...

He took two steps back in disgust and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his shoes were not wet.

Lu Qi didn't expect that this guy's psychological defense was so fragile. He was already frightened before he actually threw him into the pit.

But that's fine, this way, he doesn't have to continue playing such a villain role...

However, some people never give up until they reach the Yellow River.

Before he could ask for the password to the safe, Liston suddenly thought of something and shouted:

"You can't do this!"

"Oh, why?"

Like a drowning man grasping at the last straw, Liston didn't notice the amusement on Lu Qi's face at all, and just said hurriedly:

"I am the only one who knows the password to the safe. If you kill me, you will never get the videotape!"

Hearing this, Lu Qi shrugged his shoulders, pretended to be indifferent, and said:

"Anyway, after I kill you, I can still find professionals to open the safe. It's just a little more troublesome."

After saying that, Lu Qi looked in the direction of Rick and asked:

"Is it done?"

"about there…"

After receiving the answer, Lu Qi looked at the pale Liston and smiled:

"are you ready?"

Without waiting for the other party to answer, he reached out and grabbed Liston's clothes, dragged him hard, and walked slowly towards the dug pit.

Liston was being dragged on the ground, with snot and tears streaming down his face.

With his hands and feet tied, he could only twist his body wildly, trying to make a final struggle, and begging for mercy in a stern voice:

"Oh God, please, don't kill me! Don't kill me, I don't want to die yet... I can give you whatever you want. If you want money, you want the password to the safe, I will give it to you..."

Listening to these extremely miserable cries, the black man standing aside with a shovel also felt a little intolerable.

However, Lu Qi turned a deaf ear like a heartless robot.

He dragged Liston to the edge of the pit and pushed him down into the dug pit.

"Do it!"

At Lu Qi's order, the black man held a shovel in his hand, scooped up a handful of sand, and filled the hole.

Liston, who was lying in the pit with some dry sand poured on his body, said "Ah" full of fear and continued to beg for mercy:

"Please...don't kill me...I don't want to die yet..."

When a thin layer of sand covered Liston's body, Lu Qi suddenly stretched out his hand to stop Rick.

Squatting on the edge of the sandpit, looking down at Liston from a high position, Lu Qi raised a finger and said coldly:

"Last chance, tell me the password to the safe or be buried alive!"

Lu Qi's words were like the sound of nature, and Liston seized this last chance to survive without hesitation:

“I said, I said, 8…7..9..520…”

After reciting the password silently in his mind, Lu Qi took out his mobile phone and called Page:

"Are you in front of the safe?"

"Um."

"The password is 879520."

A faint "beep" sound was heard, and the next second, Lu Qi heard Page's reply:

"I got the tape."

"Very well, let's confirm the contents of the videotape, just in case."

After a while, Page's voice sounded again on the other side of the phone:

"The tape is fine."

"Okay, remember to take everything with you and see you in the office later."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Qi looked down at Liston in the sandpit again, applauded and said:

"Excellent, Jeremy, you saved your life."

After that, Lu Qi pulled out a tactical dagger from his waist, jumped into the sand pit, and cut off the nylon ties restraining Liston under his horrified gaze.

Together with Rick, they pulled Liston up from the sand pit. Lu Qi put his arm around his shoulders, like a close friend, and said to him deeply:

"Now that you know that I am serious, you should understand what you are going to do, right?"

"Well…"

Before Liston could react, Lu Qi's expression suddenly changed, he grabbed his neck suddenly, leaned close to his ear, and said in a deep voice:

"From now on, even if you look in Scarlett's direction, I will let you truly experience what it feels like to be buried alive."

"Do you want to experience the feeling of having your nose filled with sand, unable to breathe, and finally suffocating to death?!"

Liston, whose neck was strangled, did not dare to take a breath, but just shook his head wildly.

Seeing this, Lu Qi nodded with great satisfaction, released his hand, patted Liston's face, and said with a smile:

"Very good. So, stay away from her and never step into her life again, okay?"

Liston nodded wildly again.

"That's right. Keep walking in that direction and you will see the road. Then you can find a way to get home."

"thanks, thanks…"

After guiding Liston in the direction, Lu Qi watched Liston walk into the darkness, then turned around and said to Rick beside him:

"Pack up, it's time for us to leave."

"What about this pit?"

"Save it for next time..."

Leaving behind such words that he couldn't distinguish between true and false, Lu Qi casually picked up a vertical construction site lamp, turned around, and walked towards the van.

Only the black man with a helpless face was left standing there.

...

On the way back, the black man held the steering wheel with both hands and asked curiously while driving:

"Alex, if he refuses to say anything, are you really going to bury him alive?"

Hearing this, Lu Qi paid attention to Rick's expression and deliberately breathed heavily and said:

"certainly…"

"No! What are you thinking about? Am I such a person?"

Hearing this, Rick suddenly felt relieved, scratched his head with his hand, and then used a simple and honest smile to cover up his embarrassment.

Lu Qi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, also smiled back.
