Chapter 67 Giving Someone Face and Not Taking It

The atmosphere inside the car was extremely heavy throughout the journey.

After driving for about three hours, the car finally slowed down.

From inside the car, you can already see the village at the end of the narrow path.

"It's that village up ahead. They have a lot of people, and I've already packed my gear in the trunk," Wu Mang said as he drove.

"When are you going to change your impulsive nature? We used to reason with people, not try to kill them!" Guan An reprimanded in a stern voice.

Wu Mang immediately shut his mouth, but what he was thinking was another matter entirely.

Sitting in the back, Su Jin looked at Guan An through the rearview mirror, her gaze equally profound.

As soon as the car entered the village, it was immediately blocked by seven or eight villagers.

Wu Mang's voice was extremely serious, "They're the ones who detained Fatty."

"Get out of the car!" Guan An didn't hesitate for a moment. After opening the car door, he said to Su Jin, "You stay in the car."

How could Su Jin possibly listen to him? After the two got out of the car, she followed closely behind.

Seeing that there were only three of them, the villagers relaxed their guard considerably, and the one standing in the center, who was leading the group, asked directly, "Did you bring the money?"

Guan An: "I brought it, but we need to see Fatty first."

Seeing how certain he was, several villagers chose to believe him.

"Come with me."

Guan An walked forward, not forgetting to look back at Su Jin who was following behind.

"Why did you come along too?"

Su Jin did not answer.

At this point, Guan An was in no mood to say anything more. Soon, the three of them saw the fat man who was tied to a tree trunk.

The fat man had been freezing all night, his chubby face was flushed, and he kept sniffling.

When he saw Guan An and the others coming over, snot streamed down his face.

"If you don't come over soon, I'm going to freeze into an icicle!"

Guan An glanced at his condition; the fact that he could still joke meant that nothing serious had happened.

"Sister Jin! You're here too! I knew Sister Jin wouldn't abandon us!" The fat man's eyes fell on Su Jin standing behind Guan An and Wu Mang. He shouted excitedly, showing no trace of the hardship of being detained and tortured.

"Alright, stop yelling, let's get down to business!" Guan An reminded him sternly, then looked at the leader, "We accept responsibility for the fat guy hitting someone with his car, but you can't just detain people like that!"

"If we don't keep him here, and he runs away, who will we look for?" the leader said aggressively.

Wu Mang said angrily, "We all said we'd take them to the hospital, but you yourselves refused!"

The man argued unreasonably, "Who knows if the doctor is in cahoots with you? You pay, we'll go see the doctor ourselves, it's perfectly reasonable!"

Wu Mang was furious. Did they even know what emotion or reason was?

Just as he was about to lash out, Guan An stopped him, then took out the money he had prepared beforehand and said very calmly, "We are the most reasonable people. All you want is money, and this is all we can raise. Either you pay the money and release the people, or you make a big scene and wait for the police to come and handle it."

The man glanced at the money in his hand and knew there was definitely no five thousand yuan left.

However, it was the first time the other villagers had seen so much money, and they were all quite excited.

What more could you ask for? We've given you so much, what more could you possibly want?
