Chapter 462: Coercion and Inducement
Jie Shi's expression became even gloomier.
At this time, I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the heat from the stoves on both sides was getting stronger and stronger, giving people the illusion that they were about to be burned.
A drop of cold sweat dripped down Nan Yan's forehead.
Jie Shi asked, "Why did Master Huang send the body away?"
Zhu Feng said, "Because they used jade to defraud people in town, and then attacked my maid. This matter certainly cannot be let go."
“…”
"So, I had the body sent to Peking and reported to the authorities."
Upon hearing this, Jie Shi's face changed drastically.
"What? Report to the police?"
"Of course," Zhu Feng said calmly, "After all, someone has died. I can't just let this go so hastily. There must be a conclusion."
“…”
"Because they attacked first, I fought back and that's when someone died."
“…”
"I don't want to be charged with murder for no reason, so I'll let the government decide."
Jie Shi's brows furrowed.
The middle-aged man behind him stepped forward and said, "I wonder when Mr. Huang sent the body away?"
"Yesterday morning, as soon as the incident happened, I sent someone to handle it."
As he spoke, he looked at the sky outside and said, "Look at the sky, we're almost in Peking."
Jie Shi's expression became somewhat stiff.
But he still smiled and said, "I wonder if Mr. Huang is willing to return the body."
Zhu Feng looked at him with a smile: "Boss Xie wants that body just to be buried in peace?"
"certainly."
"If that's the case, there's no need to bother."
"Why?"
"Carrying it back and forth is disrespectful to the deceased. How about I do it for you?"
Jie Shi's expression grew even darker.
He said, "So, Master Huang, you are unwilling to send the body back?"
Zhu Feng said, "It also depends on what Boss Jie wants to do with the body."
“…”
“…”
At this point, the atmosphere had become a little awkward.
Nan Yan and the others understood that Jie Shi invited them to a banquet tonight for the purpose of getting the corpse.
There must be some unspeakable secrets on that corpse, which is why he went to so much trouble, using threats and inducements.
But Zhu Feng is certainly not someone who can be easily coerced or bribed.
Seeing him so steady as a rock, Jie Shi's eyes flashed with a fierce light. He winked at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man immediately turned around and walked towards the side door, obviously going downstairs to do something.
Zhu Feng took the wine jar and poured himself a glass of wine, then said calmly, "Boss Jie, are you trying to stop my people?"
“…”
"However, my people cannot be stopped by just anyone."
The middle-aged man walked to the door and paused.
Zhu Feng raised the wine glass to his lips again and said calmly, "Besides, my people only follow my orders. They won't stop without my order."
Jie Shi stared at Zhu Feng with a fierce look in his eyes.
He sneered and said, "If that's the case, then it's easy."
As soon as he waved his hand, he heard a few bangs and the side doors on both sides of the lobby were suddenly opened. Dozens of burly men holding sharp weapons rushed in from outside, rushed to Zhu Feng and surrounded them.
Surrounded by swords.
Nan Yan's eyes widened in shock, and she and Ye Zheng and the others gathered around Zhu Feng.
Jie Shi said word by word, "Then please, Master Huang, issue a warrant and have your people return."
