The arrogance started from Chinatown

Chapter 106 Coercion and inducement

"I want to see the money tonight."

"no problem!"

"What do you want to do?" Michael breathed a sigh of relief.

"If the people from Hong Shun Tang want to assassinate someone, they must have an excuse! Find an excuse tomorrow and have Evans torture the people captured today to extract a confession."

"Whether Hong Shuntang becomes desperate or wants to take revenge, it's all natural." Chen Zhengwei said with a smile.

Even if there is something unreasonable, Michael can find a way to make it right.

"Is there anyone under Evans who can be bribed?" Chen Zhengwei asked after thinking for a while.

In fact, the best way is to bribe them little by little, just like Michael did, let the other party do a little thing first, and then get involved little by little.

But I don't have the time now, so I can only try my luck.

If we can bribe Evans' men, then there will be no risk.

"Maybe there is someone who can do it! But you need to deal with him yourself!" Michael probably felt that he was likely to die at this time, so he didn't care about anything else.

"His name is Cillian, and I played cards with him. He owes old William one hundred and thirty dollars! And I heard that he is not a clean hand and would take away some valuables from the crime scene."

"What else? What about personality?"

"Greedy, selfish, and a boaster. I don't like him!"

"He sounds like a good guy, I like him!" Chen Zhengwei laughed, he didn't sound like a determined person.

"Does he have any family? How are their relationships?"

"His parents are in Texas, and he has no wife or children here."

Chen Zhengwei felt a little regretful when he heard this. If he had family members, it would be much easier to control.

Now I can only go meet the other person and try my luck.

"Where can I find him?"

"The Banshee bar two blocks away!"

"I'll have someone send the money and medicine over later. Remember to take the medicine on time. You're lucky. If I had seen you a few days later, even my medicine would have been useless!" Chen Zhengwei waved his hand and took a few people to get on a carriage not far away.

"To the Banshee Bar!"

After a while, the carriage circled around the bar and returned to the vicinity of the Justice Bureau.

Not long after, Chen Zhengwei saw one of Michael's men walking out of the Justice Bureau and immediately asked someone to call him to the carriage.

Chen Zhengwei had some impression of this young man, a pair of green eyes, and he should be called Allen.

"Mr. Chen!"

"Alan, did I call you wrong? I hope you can help me do something!" Chen Zhengwei smiled and handed two five-dollar bills to Alan.

Although this action seems a bit humiliating, no one will care if it happens more often. After all, the money he recently received from Chen Zhengwei is twice his salary.

"Do you know an agent named Cillian? Go to the Banshee Bar and tell him you have a business deal with him. Don't reveal my identity. Then take him to the alley behind the bar!"

Alan hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

"I'm only responsible for calling people over! I don't know anything else!"

Chen Zhengwei nodded with a smile, and after a moment he parked the carriage in the alley behind the Banshee Bar.

After waiting for a while, I saw a man coming into the alley from the back door of the bar.

Cillian was watching other people play cards in the bar when a man named Brass Button came up to him and said someone wanted to discuss business with him and that he knew this man.

They are Michael's men. They went to Chinatown together today.

The other party looked very mysterious and only said that someone wanted to discuss business with him, and he refused to reveal the other party's identity.

This piqued his interest, after all, he was short of money.

"Mr. Sirian!" Chen Zhengwei got out of the car and walked up to Sirian.

"Chinese?" Xilian immediately discovered Chen Zhengwei's identity and his attitude suddenly became a little arrogant.

"What do you want to talk to me about?"

"Before we talk about anything, I don't like your attitude!" Chen Zhengwei suddenly kicked Xilian in the stomach, kicking him more than a meter away, and he fell to his knees, holding his stomach.

"What makes you talk to me in such an arrogant tone? Is it the white skin on your body?" Chen Zhengwei walked up to Xilian and looked down at him.

Xilian covered his stomach and retched, only to see a pair of leather shoes stopped in front of him.

Then, his heart was filled with shame and rage, and he was about to draw the gun from his waist, but the next second a gun was pointed at his head.

Chen Zhengwei looked at Xilian with murderous eyes. If the other party made any further moves, he could just kill him and then replace him with someone else.

"Calm down, calm down!" Xilian stopped and shouted loudly, looking up at the man in front of him, only to see a pair of fierce eyes. At the same time, several other young men drew axes from their waists and silently surrounded him.

Sirian was certain of one thing: the other party really wanted to kill him.

This made him curse in his heart, are these Chinese guys crazy? They want to kill him just because of a disagreement?

Neither the Irish nor the Jewish gangs in San Francisco were that crazy!
"We don't have to be like this! What do you want to do with me? We can talk!" Cillian said quickly.

"If you had been so sensible just now, I wouldn't have been so rude!" Chen Zhengwei tilted his head and signaled his henchmen to take his gun away.

"I'm sorry, can you please move the gun away?" asked Cillian.

"I want you to help me do something, but I don't know how to trust you. Can you help me think about it?" Chen Zhengwei asked straight to the point.

"I swear on my grandmother!"

"I gave you three chances, and you've already used one! If you fail to seize all three chances, then I can only say sorry." Chen Zhengwei pressed the muzzle of the gun in his hand against Xilian's head a little harder.

Xilian's face turned extremely ugly.

"I slept with Daniel's wife, and Daniel is my colleague!"

"Although I like to hear this...but you still have one chance..." Chen Zhengwei sneered.

"What can you give me?" Xilian asked after a moment of silence.

"A sum of money that can allow you to pay off your debts and live a relatively affluent life. Of course, if the cooperation is pleasant, there will be more money. Plus your life." Chen Zhengwei was not stingy in answering this question.

Xilian hesitated for a long time and said, "You found me because you heard something about me, right?"

"I took valuable evidence from the crime scene and sold it through Ham, the one with the bull's head hanging outside the store! If they investigate, I'll lose my job and go to jail!"

Chen Zhengwei looked at Xilian with interest. Originally, he came to Xilian because Xilian had many shortcomings, and he felt that he should be able to dig out more.

Just give it a try. Even if you fail, you won’t lose anything.

However, he sensed from the flickering look in Cillian's eyes that he hadn't said much yet.

"kill him!"

The thug next to him raised his axe. Although Xili didn't understand the last few words, he could see the actions of the others.

Seeing the axe about to fall, he was so scared that he almost peed himself and shouted:
"I've killed people!"

Chen Zhengwei stretched out his hand to stop the henchman's action and looked down at Xilian: "This is the last chance!"

"I once accidentally killed a man..." Cillian gasped, his face pale.

"Go on!" Chen Zhengwei finally became interested.

This evidence is much more important than taking away evidence from the crime scene.

He said that his feeling would not be wrong, and if Sirian was really hacked to death and he didn't say anything, then he was just being too stubborn.

Now it seems that this guy is very cunning!

"She was a prostitute. I accidentally strangled her to death in bed... Then I buried her in the yard..."

"I didn't mean to... I just accidentally..."

"You'd like to take us to the scene, right?"

Xilian could only nod. These Chinese guys were too cruel. He thought he was going to die at their hands just now.

After a while, the carriage stopped at a somewhat dilapidated wooden house facing the street with a small backyard.

Chen Zhengwei took his men around the house and confirmed that this was Xilian's residence.

Then Xilian took Chen Zhengwei to the backyard, where he saw tomatoes and potatoes planted.

"It's right down here, about five feet deep," Cillian said, pointing to the edge of the yard.

Chen Zhengwei looked at the tomatoes planted there and suddenly felt that Xilian was also a ruthless person!
“Are you going to eat these tomatoes yourself?”

"That was three years ago... these were planted this year..." Sirian explained.

"Dig it up!" Chen Zhengwei asked others to dig the ground to a depth of one and a half meters. Sure enough, they found some rags underneath. When they opened them, they found the skeleton of a woman.

"I'm starting to like you a little, Cillian!"

Chen Zhengwei turned and smiled at Xilian.

　Go home.
