Chapter 604: The Alliance of Masters, the Sincere Thief
Thief 011: "Lu Xingchen, I...we didn't steal anything. Even if we did steal a little, we returned it all. You...you're going to kill us?"
Lu Xingchen asked in surprise, "Who said I was going to kill you? I'm just locking you up."
She waved her hand: "Let's go down the mountain!"
The group quickly descended the mountain, while the thieves screamed and howled.
Lu Xingchen ignored everything and, with Hong San, locked the group of thieves up on the beach.
The beach is full of uneven rocks, making it difficult to stand steadily.
The waves crashed against the rocks, and soon the thieves' clothes were mostly soaked.
Lu Xingchen clapped his hands and said to Hong San and the others, "Okay, thank you all for your hard work. There's a newly built pavilion over there. I'll put some fruit, snacks, and tea in there. You can all have some tea, snacks, and fruit and get some rest."
The pirates were very satisfied and thanked them profusely.
Lu Xingchen looked at the surging seawater: "It won't take up too much of your time. Look, the waves are getting bigger and bigger."
Hong San: "That's right, we can finish work in a few hours."
The thieves were terrified.
They just came to steal some things, who would have thought they would drown?
Lu Xingchen ignored them and led everyone to a nearby pavilion.
Grapes, watermelons, strawberries, and other fruits were laid out, along with various dried fruits. Some tea was also served, and Hong San and Hei Jiu ate with great relish.
"Splash" the waves came over and drenched the thieves in the faces.
A feeling of suffocation came over me.
The thieves couldn't take it anymore and begged for mercy.
Thief 034: "Lu Xingchen, we were wrong, we shouldn't have come. But it's not our fault, it was Elder Ji who sent us..."
Lu Xingchen jumped down, grabbed the chain of thief 034, and lifted him onto a large rock, asking, "Old Ji?"
Thief 034 nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, we usually work in Frosty Snow Village, and we have a cooperative relationship with Elder Ji..."
Thief 011: "What nonsense are you spouting?"
Thief 034 said confidently: "What nonsense! Isn't this a secret between us and Old Man Ji?"
Thief 011 was furious: "You knew it was a secret, so why did you tell me?"
Thief 034 roared, "It's an open secret, so what's wrong with telling everyone? We're all going to die anyway!"
Thief011 snorted: "Just a newly appointed island owner, do you think she has the guts?"
Lu Xingchen raised an eyebrow: "Heh?"
She looked at the rising sea water and said to the pirates behind her, "Have you all rested enough? If so, let's leave first and go to the food court for dinner. We'll come back in the evening."
The thieves' faces changed.
What are you talking about?
It's only morning, does it really take this long to eat?
When they came back at night, they all smelled terrible!
Hong San's eyes lit up, and he understood immediately: "Okay, no problem. We haven't properly explored the market yet, let's go!"
Everyone quickly left.
Lu Xingchen glanced at the thieves and murmured, "The tide isn't rising today? Well, I'm going to the market too. I guess nothing will happen."
The thieves were so angry their noses were crooked.
The tide is clearly rising now, how can Lu Xingchen lie through his teeth?
Lu Xingchen muttered to himself, "It's alright if something goes wrong. I just took office and didn't think things through. I can just talk to them nicely and it'll be fine. They're just a few small fry anyway... If all else fails, I'll just say they offended Master Babu..."
The thieves turned pale.
This is blatantly trying to kill them; they've even thought of what to say afterward.
They even found the most hot-tempered Master Babu to take the blame!
That's outrageous!
They realized that Lu Xingchen truly wanted them dead.
