The night crept over the area, in the dark alley of an unknown small movie theater, Lin Hai closely followed Queen Qi.

This place is what's referred to as the underground Black Market Boxing arena.

Every person entering required a special form of identification.

Using clues the police had painstakingly gathered over several years, Queen Qi was able to blend in here today.

Those who could enter to watch were all either rich or noble, hailing from all corners of Huaxia.

Even the cheapest ticket costs thirty thousand yuan.

While a VIP ticket goes for a staggering one hundred thousand yuan.

As Lin Hai walked through the passage to the viewing area of the arena, he couldn't help but glance around in awe.

A huge circular ring was enclosed by an iron cage, surrounded by a sea of people in the stands.

At a glance, there were at least around two hundred people.

Meaning, just from regular ticket sales, the income tonight would exceed six million.

If one were to add the thirty or so VIP booths that occasionally flicker with spotlights or the light of cigarettes, the total gross for one night would at least be tens of millions.

Moreover, Lin Hai knew that Black Market Boxing would definitely manipulate external betting for gambling.

It's definitely a hidden violent industry.

The massive iron cage in front of him also made Lin Hai realize that this Black Market Boxing arena was likely rated A-class.

Black Market Boxing, in the Dark World industry, also has ratings, but not by the size of the venue, rather by the level of bloodiness.

A-class signifies that the venue hosts death matches.

In death matches, what's lost isn't just the game, but life itself.

The loser must be violently killed on the spot.

The winner gets honor and prize money.

Moreover, after experiencing this kind of bloody stimulation, the audience would become excited, their emotions high and even extreme, using it to briefly stimulate their otherwise empty spirits for a thrill.

This is also why death matches are officially banned by various countries around the world, yet they still persist.

Humans, sometimes have an innate nature of killing and enjoying killings.

Just entering the seating area, Lin Hai and Queen Qi already felt that slightly crazed mood permeating the air.

Here, perhaps even the most gentlemanly and cultivated tycoon would scream in a piercing harsh voice, waving a wad of cash demanding the victorious contestant kill the loser.

And under the stimulation of bloodshed, they make excited and ugly exhilarated noises, satisfying their twisted spiritual world.

Lin Hai frowned slightly; he really disliked this kind of environment.

These fighters, each in pursuit of victory, would to varying extents use certain drugs, which are often cheap with side effects, temporarily overdrawing life's potential to win, and afterward, their bodies would rapidly deteriorate until one day they're physically depleted, either retiring in resentment or getting killed in a match, the latter being more common.

Queen Qi didn't have Lin Hai's experiences and it being her first time here, she was inevitably a little excited.

"Linlin, how is it? I heard this stuff is very thrilling."

Lin Hai nodded, cooperating and saying, "Tsk tsk, truly an eye-opener for the first time."

Queen Qi was very satisfied with Lin Hai, thinking joyfully in her heart: "According to the internet, being continually happy with someone when together will gradually lead you to get used to them, depend on them, until merging together as one. Beast Lin being happy now is a good start."

"So, to gather evidence, what do we need to do?" Lin Hai blinked and asked.

Queen Qi glanced around cautiously, and when she noticed nobody was paying attention to this area, she whispered to Lin Hai, "We just need to watch."

"But, I didn't see you bring any hidden camera equipment? Even when we entered and were checked, I didn't notice anything," Lin Hai wondered. Could the police have some new high-tech product?

As the King of Mercenaries, although he had hidden in Huadu, he was still curious to find out, considering he might encounter such high-tech equipment in the future and it would be good to be prepared.

"Hehe, there's nothing high-tech; it's still the pinhole type, but more portable."

"The most important is, this Queen is naturally clever, and I hid it in a very special place," Queen Qi said, looking downwards.

Lin Hai also followed Queen Qi's gaze and suddenly became uneasy, "Sh*t! You didn't hide the spy camera in your underwear, did you?"

After saying that, Lin Hai was astonished by his own thought, sh*t, do we have to go this far to solve the case? What if the pinhole camera turns on and accidentally starts 'taking selfies'?

Queen Qi's face turned red, she spat at Lin Hai, and said shyly yet angrily, "What filthy thoughts you have, always thinking in that direction, would this Queen be so vile?"

Lin Hai gave a sheepish smile, but his eyes still involuntarily glanced toward Queen Qi's legs.

Not the front? Could it be the back?!

Damn, as much as I want to ask, I'm afraid I'd get beaten to death.

Queen Qi snorted angrily, "It's in my toenail."

"Uh… forgive me for my unfettered wild imaginings in this life," Lin Hai blinked his eyes.

Feeling Lin Hai's undisguised gaze, combined with the violent atmosphere of the underground fight, Queen Qi's heart fluttered like a deer, feeling strangely warm and slightly excited by his rogue behavior.

Thinking of all this, Queen Qi suddenly felt flustered.

"Heh heh, sometimes it's quite fun to tease the Queen," Lin Hai chuckled softly.

Suddenly, the crowd's cheers reached a peak.

Lin Hai and Queen Qi couldn't help but look toward the ring.

They saw a muscled man as large as a mountain, standing over his fallen opponent, raising his arms high with an excited roar like a beast after capturing its prey.

Instantly, the spectators' emotions ignited at that moment.

A woman, clad in luxury from head to toe and quite beautiful, was now clutching a bunch of red bills, letting out an undignified scream, "Kill him, kill him!"

With that, the audience also roared: "Finish him! I'll give you a hundred thousand!"

"Damn it, finish him quickly!"

Meanwhile, from the windows of the high VIP section, a glittering axe was thrown down, landing in the middle of the ring.

A breath-heavy, emotionally uncontrollable man's voice came from the VIP section, "Finish him with the axe, chop him, I'll give you a million!"

Instantly, the audience's emotions twisted into madness.

Lin Hai and Queen Qi watched this scene, dumbfounded.

These people, usually so neatly dressed, now revealed souls so dirty and ugly, their faces filled with selfish desires and fervor.

The defeated man lying in the ring, his eyes dim and ashen, had already seen his inevitable end.

"Stop it!"

Queen Qi suddenly stood up.

Her character filled with a sense of justice, she could not just sit by while encountering such situations.

"Damn!" Lin Hai cursed inwardly.
