When Nathan Wei and Xu Si rushed back to Zhou Fengliu's room, they were surprised to find that Zhou Fengliu had already caught the dog before them.
"Xiao Zhou... how did you do that? You spotted it immediately? You locked onto the mastermind behind it all."
"It was just a coincidence...purely a coincidence," Zhou Fengliu said truthfully.
However, in Nathan Wayne's eyes, his words were genuine modesty...
With so many people chasing the shadow to find the murderer, how come they never managed to catch him by chance?
How did Zhou Fengliu, Nathan King's double, manage to catch the murderer?
"Alright, you've done a great job. We'll see when we get back..."
Xu Si was about to suggest promoting Zhou Fengliu and giving him a raise when he suddenly seemed to realize something and paused for a second:
"I forgot, you're at the same level as me now, so I can't give you a promotion or a raise... After this is over, I'll treat you to drinks, bro."
Who understands Zhou Fengliu best?
This is undoubtedly Xu Si, the old leader.
However, things have changed, and the two are no longer the "Emperor of Bathing Yellow" they once were in North China.
As fellow regional heads, Xu Si could only invite Zhou Fengliu for a drink.
“Okay, Fourth Brother.” Zhou Fengliu nodded.
...
Larry was taken away by Xu Si.
Although Larry is currently in a coma, there are a hundred ways to wake him up.
To assassinate King Nathan... especially in the territory of All-Tong, with such tight security, and still dare to defy the rules, would be impossible without the support of some organization.
When Nathan woke Larry up, all the foreign VIPs in the hotel had heard about the attack on King Nathan.
Representatives from several foreign supernatural organizations immediately demanded that they jointly interrogate this disrespectful murderer.
Faced with the demands of these representatives, Zhao Fangxu also decided to publicly interrogate Larry...
...
P.S.: Happy 520 to all my godfathers!

Dear godfathers, on such a wonderful day, how about a little something?
Goodnight, sweet dreams, I'm begging for everything~
Chapter 360 Constantly Talking About Justice and Freedom... (First Update)
On the eve of the interrogation.
Zhang Chulan took a moment to call out to Elijah, and the two engaged in a conversation that was both male and female.
“Elijah, whatever you’ve been planning, the fact remains that our men stood in for the king against the assassins. You owe us a favor.”
Zhang Chulan looked at Elijah and began to speak.
"So what?" Elijah asked in return.
"So... in exchange, you should tell me information about the people who hired you in the Twenty-Four Heavenly Valley, any information will do."
Upon seeing Elijah again, Zhang Chulan had been wanting to find an opportunity to ask Elijah about his former employer.
Since Zhou Fengliu had just saved King Nathan from disaster, he could take the opportunity to ask Elijah a question.
"You mean this..."
Elijah paused for a moment, then looked at Zhang Chulan and slowly uttered four large words.
"No comment."
“In our line of work, not disclosing the employer’s information is a commitment we make to our employers, and we receive corresponding compensation for it.”
"More importantly, to avoid trouble, we only gather information related to the mission; as for the employer's affairs... we generally don't inquire about them..."
Hearing Elijah's answer, Zhang Chulan frowned slightly and remained silent for two seconds.
"Alright, I've answered your question. I still need to guard the king."
After Elijah finished speaking, he turned and left the corner, pushing open the door to the side corridor.
With a creak, a spacious and bright hall came into view.
As far as the eye could see, several representatives of foreign supernatural organizations were sitting on the sofas on either side, while Zhao Fangxu and Zhou Fengliu, who was disguised as King Nathan, were sitting on the sofa in the middle.
In front of the representatives, the unfortunate Larry knelt on the ground with his hands tied, and a clear handprint was visible on his left cheek, the handprint of which was unknown.
"That's right, isn't it? This is the person, without any disguise or disguise, right?"
Zhao Fangxu confirmed a few key points, then turned his gaze to Lilia, the president of the Children of the Earth, who was not far away.
"President Lilia, this person... is your personal assistant? Am I right?"
Lilia became the target of everyone's criticism after Zhao Fangxu asked her that question. She grabbed Larry's collar, and the fat on her face seemed to tremble with anger.
"Larry, tell me...why did you do this? Why!"
The fact that the people she brought with her became assassins who attempted to kill King Nathan is undoubtedly a major international incident. If she cannot provide an explanation, she, as the president, will likely be held accountable.
"I'm sorry... President."
Larry, the person involved, seemed to be under immense pressure, and kept apologizing.
What's the use of saying sorry now?
"Kill me, just don't hurt my wife and daughter... I beg you."
"I simply cannot kill the king. He is not human. I have no ability to kill him at all."
"Please! I know, I know you can hear me, you're here! Spare my children and wife, I'll trade my life for theirs!"
Under the watchful eyes of a group of fox-like, cunning individuals, Larry began to shout and yell.
He seemed to have gone mad, or perhaps he was being threatened by someone, as he spoke in the void.
Although Larry was in a state of frenzy at the moment, Zhou Fengliu still felt that Larry's words, "He's not even human," were presumptuous.
How presumptuous of me...
So what if he failed to assassinate her? Does that mean he's not human?
Zhou Fengliu said that this was too presumptuous.
"Larry, who are you talking to? Have you lost your mind?" President Lilia questioned, watching Larry's performance.
Faced with this questioning, Larry told everyone his story of being threatened.
turn out to be...
A week earlier, when he learned that he was to meet King Nathan with President Lilia, he received death threats that his wife and daughter had been kidnapped.
The other party demanded that he kill King Nathan during the meeting; otherwise, his wife and daughter would die.
The other party seems to have infiltrated the Children of the Earth guild and has extensive knowledge of its internal affairs. This means he cannot inform anyone within the guild, and he dares not risk his wife and daughter...
So he did as the other party requested and carried out an assassination tonight.
After listening to Larry's story, everyone present remained silent for a while, as if judging the truth or falsehood of Larry's words, until Ron was the first to jump out.
He slammed his hand on the table with a loud "bang," then stood up and began to speak righteously and solemnly:
"Outrageous!"
“What a horrific atrocity! Larry, although I sympathize with you, you have still committed an unforgivable crime.”
"My lord, we, the Behemoths, will definitely take care of Larry and the people behind him!"
"?"
Hearing Ron's words, Zhao Fangxu adjusted his glasses and interrupted, saying:
“Mr. Ron, please wait a moment. If the solution you mentioned is through conventional legal means, then how we handle Larry’s behavior is our responsibility.”
"Of course, it's not the conventional method!"
Ron shook his head as he listened to Zhao Fangxu's speech, then continued:
“You and I both know that for people like us, obtaining evidence through conventional means is extremely difficult. Behemoth, and all the others here, aren’t they there precisely because of this?”
"I hope you will place some trust in Behemoth and believe in our firm stance in defending freedom and justice! You should also believe that we have the power to defend freedom and justice!"
This Ron really speaks with the air of an old American politician.
They talk about freedom and justice all the time, yet their actions are all hegemonic...
"Of course, we at Behemoth also hope to cooperate with everyone! Together, we will give the King a satisfactory explanation in this matter!"
"?"
Listening to Ron's impassioned speech, Zhou Fengliu, Nathan's double, yawned, then looked at Ron and asked:
"So... you Behemoths made decisions for me again?"
Upon hearing Zhou Fengliu's question, Ron, who had been passionately declaring his intention to seek justice for the king, instantly fell silent.
"Your Majesty, we Behemoths would never dare to make such a decision on your behalf..."
"I see you're quite bold. I haven't even said whether I'm satisfied or not... and you're already demanding an explanation from them. You don't even dare to make a decision for me?"
Ron: "..."
"Your Majesty, is there even a question? Larry has already committed a crime and must be punished."
"Oh, according to you, what crime did he commit? Let me hear it," Zhou Fengliu continued to ask.
"It's quite obvious, isn't it? Assassinating you, taking someone's life for one's own selfish desires, is wrong, unforgivable, and a crime that we Behemoths cannot condone."
Chapter 361 That night, he dreamed of five million US dollars... (Second update)
"Oh, so according to you, all you Behemoths are good people? You never kill anyone..."
