"Sir, I was acting in self-defense!"
"Although I feel guilty that someone died, five of my men also died!"
"I will compensate you for your losses as appropriate!"
"What? There's compensation too?" This surprised Xiao Luomu.
"This inspector's judgment is fair and just, and he distinguishes right from wrong! He is giving you compensation out of sympathy for the accident you encountered in Yanchuan. But! You must also bear corresponding responsibility!"
Chai Xin stepped forward, his large, bell-like eyes glaring at Xiao Luomu. He said, "Whether you acted in self-defense or not, the commotion you caused this time was too great, and the impact was far too bad! This inspector asks you, how many men does your family have in Qingdong City?"

Xiao Luomu was taken aback: "Ah, such a coincidence exists in the world?"
Zhao Cheng exclaimed, "Yes, I was surprised too!"
"Then..." Xiao Luomu asked, "Brother, who exactly are you?"
"Is Lord Deng here? Lord Deng!!" Just then, Xu An and Li Guanyu walked in casually.
