A man d in ck strode toward him, raising a pistol to his forehead. In a chilling tone, he asked, “Are you ‘Know One’s ce and Abide by the Law’?”


    The leader of the shills was gripped by fear and stammered, “No, that’s not me! I don’t know what you’re talking about. Who are you people?”


    The man in ck responded coldly, “You’ll find out who we are shortly. Come with us!”


    The shill leader protested, “Come with you? Why did you break into my home? If you don’t leave, I’ll call the police!”


    Without hesitation, two men in ck advanced. One seized his arms and twisted them behind his back, while the other swiftly broke both of his wrists.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    The leader of the shills screamed in agony, but his tormentors showed no mercy. One of them aimed low and delivered a brutal kick to his knees, shattering them instantly.


    Nearly losing consciousness from the pain, the leader’s family members watched in horror, tears streaming down their faces.


    The man in ck sneered, “Aren’t you usually so brave online? You could easily type insults with just a flick of your finger. Why are you crumbling after just a couple of hits? People like you are truly useless in reality.”


    Desperate, the shill leader pleaded, “To you esteemed gentlemen, I’m just a pathetic loser. Please, show mercy and let me go! I can pay you— I have plenty of money!”


    One of the men in ck shouted furiously, “You unt your wealth while betraying your own conscience for filthy profits? A good-for-nothing like you doesn’t deserve to live!”


    He then produced a cigar cutter, gripping the shill leader’s right hand. “You make a living with these ten fingers, don’t you? Well, let me show you how you’re about to lose your livelihood!”


    With that, he used the cutter to slice through each finger, one after another, leaving the severed digits on the floor.


    The shill leader was engulfed in excruciating pain and despair. Amidst his suffering, he heard the man in ck say, “You’re already terrified, and this is just the beginning. Don’t worry,e to Aurous Hill with us; the real fun is yet toe!”


    Crying, the leader begged, “Please, spare my life! I’m only twenty-five; I don’t want to die!”


    The man in ck replied coolly, “Our young master has decreed that rumor-mongers like you must perish!”


    With a wave of his hand, he ordered, “Take this man away and drop him ten miles outside the city. A helicopter will be here shortly!”


    A group of men in ck carried the incapacitated leader out and shoved him into a car, driving him toward the outskirts.


    Meanwhile, Sean, who was in Southaven, anxiously awaited the shills to help the Webb family clear their name and deflect attention away from them.


    To his surprise, another scandal erupted online almost immediately!
