How could a dignified police chief possibly cooperate with someone else in putting on an act?

Absolutely not!

Now, everyone, including Zhao Fangfang, believed that Feng Jiu and Lin Yu were indeed high-ranking military officials!

Zhao Fangfang pursed her lips, her expression complicated, unsure how to face these two people.

I originally thought these two were just burdens introduced by my father, but they turned out to help me repeatedly at crucial moments!

Thinking back to her previous attitude towards the two of them and the impolite things she had said, she felt her face burning.

At this moment, Shen Cong and his son Xu Xiao dared not speak recklessly in front of Feng Jiu and Lin Yu.

Neither the Hongwu Sect nor the high-ranking officials of the Fengtian Army are people they can afford to offend!

They are all people who assess the situation carefully, and at least before the situation becomes clear, they do not want to easily take sides.

Lin Yu glanced at the two of them and immediately understood what they were thinking.

"I'm not asking you to take sides! But remember, businessmen should be honest. It's because the country is prosperous and stable that you have the opportunity to make money. Instability will not benefit you! If I find out that you have provided even the slightest economic assistance to the Hongwu Sect, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Lin Yu warned coldly.

hiss!

The two gasped instantly, feeling as if they were about to suffocate!

Then Lin Yu looked at Shen Jian and said, "You promised ten billion to help veterans find jobs, I remember! I'll give you one week, remember, just one week!"

After saying that, Lin Yu smiled coldly and turned to leave with Feng Jiu.

"Hey, wait a minute!"

Zhao Fangfang hurriedly tried to catch up, but then suddenly remembered something and said to Xu Xiao, "Patriarch Xu, I will definitely repay the money I owe your Xu family, but please give me some time!"

Xu Xiao quickly smiled and said, "Miss Zhao, don't worry, money is a small matter! And you, why didn't you say you had a friend with such a background sooner! How about this, consider the previous loan as my investment in you, and we'll call it even. Also, I'll inform other friends in the industry to give Miss Zhao some more support!"

Zhao Fangfang was slightly taken aback. She knew that Xu Xiao was doing this because of Lin Yu.

She pursed her lips and said, "Thank you, Patriarch Xu, but I will definitely repay the money I owe! Please believe me!"

Zhao Fangfang left a promise and then ran out.

At this moment, looking at Liu Yi's corpse, Xu Xiao and his son, as well as Shen Cong and his son, all had solemn expressions.

It is easy to imagine that Liu Yi's death would inevitably bring about a bloodbath.

The Liu family are shareholders of Hongwu Sect. The death of one of its shareholders is undoubtedly a blow to Hongwu Sect's reputation, and Hongwu Sect will never let this go unpunished.

Furthermore, Liu Yuning is a prodigy of the Hongwu Sect. How could he let his father's death go unpunished?

They'll most likely charge over there! This duel is probably just the spark that ignites it!

Shen Jian looked at his father, Shen Cong, with a bitter expression and said, "Dad, I'm sorry, I didn't expect to run into this jinx. But, do we really have to spend 1 billion to arrange things for the veteran?"

Shen Cong's eyes were serious. He shook his head and sneered, "What's the rush? He won't say anything more. One week! There are only a few days left before the competition begins. This battle will determine the outcome between the Hongwu Sect and the military! The result will be clear then! If the Hongwu Sect wins, we'll side with them. What can those remnants do to us? Those two brats will have to leave with their backsides in their hands!"

Xu Xiao frowned and asked, "Old Shen, do you think Hongwu Sect can win?"

Shen Cong nodded, his eyes flashing, and said, "An organization that can survive in Harbin for so long and even threaten the local military, do you think it has an ordinary background? I think Liu Yi wasn't lying. The power behind the Hongwu Sect is unimaginable, and it may even involve higher-level power struggles! In this struggle, we just need to wait and see!"

Xu Xiao nodded, squinting his eyes, and said, "What you said makes sense. Then let's just wait and see. If Hongwu Sect really wins, I will risk everything to get on this big ship!"

"But now, what should we do with Liu Yi?" Shen Cong looked troubled.

"We didn't kill anyone, what's there to be afraid of!" Xu Hao said, pursing his lips.

Xu Xiao shook his head. "Liu Yi died here, and we can't escape responsibility. Hongwu Sect originally hoped that powerful families like us would invest, and they might use this opportunity to put pressure on us!"

Hearing him say that, everyone looked troubled.

Shen Jian's eyes flickered, and he sneered, "How about this? Since no one knows about this anyway, let's just burn it all down and pretend it was an accident. With no one to prove it, who can do anything to us?"

"But I'm afraid this can't be kept secret for long!" Shen Cong still maintained some rationality.

Shen Jian shook his head. "Dad, what are you worried about? If Hongwu Sect wins, we will naturally join them. Even if something is found out later, we are on the same side, so there is nothing to be afraid of! If Hongwu Sect loses, everything will vanish, and the Liu family will be insignificant. What explanation would we need then?"

Everyone's eyes lit up slightly, and then they all nodded.

That's right, being a fence-sitter is probably the most comfortable thing to do!

...

Meanwhile, after Zhao Fangfang came out, she caught up with Lin Yu and Feng Jiu.

"Please wait, gentlemen!"

Lin Yu and Feng Jiu were slightly taken aback, and then stopped.

"Miss Zhao, is there something you need?" Feng Jiu frowned, and said with a teasing look, "Let me tell you, we both already have wives, so please don't have any improper thoughts!"

He thought Zhao Fangfang wanted to offer herself to him!
