48 Hours a Day Novel Chapter 844 - Disobeying The Rules

Chapter 844: Disobeying The Rules

Lockheed was the leader of the Jewish gang. No one on the southeast side of the city had the guts to make him wait.

Except for his favorite woman and his children, no one else could do sothing like this to him.

When Soap heard what he said, he could not help but stand up and apologize. “Sorry, I think sothing must”ve caused them to be late. Would you like

to have soone look for them?”

“Is there anything else more important than this afternoon’s eting?” the middle-aged Jew snorted unceremoniously. “We’ve notified them five days in advance! Even if they have business to attend to, they should have gotten them done within that five days.”

“About that...”

Soap did not know how to answer the question. He wiped away the cold sweat from his forehead.

“You guys have done lots of bad stuff recently. Do you really think we are blind? We invited him here to give him a chance to explain his intention. If he refuses to explain himself, we are more than happy to enter the next phase.”

The middle-aged Jew was clearly threatening them. Soap had no idea what he could say since he knew nothing about Zhang Heng’s plan. Hence, he did not know how he could help improve the situation.

Fortunately, Zhang Heng finally made his appearance at the tavern right at this critical mont.

The people in the tavern had been waiting for them for a long ti and were all too ready to give them their hostile glares like how they did Soap earlier. However, when Zhang Heng and his n showed up, they realized that they could no longer do as they wished.

That was because the three people outside the tavern were wearing brand-new uniforms, armor and were carrying sharp weapons. They were ard to their teeth.

This was especially true for their leader, Zhang Heng. When he glanced at everyone in the tavern, no one dared look back at him. They lowered their heads subconsciously and thought of the unpleasant things that had happened. As of now, the patrol team was the kryptonite of all the small and dium forces in the area.

Initially, they wanted to put so people on the patrol team. However, they realized if Zhang Zhang survived the judgnt, he would probably retaliate later. Hence, the crowd had to swallow their pride and anger.

The atmosphere in the tavern turned cold for a while, with Copper Arm the only person that was still glaring at Zhang Heng and his n. He had nothing left anyway, and naturally, he was no longer afraid of the patrol team.

According to the Jewish gang’s rules, even if they decided to back him up, he would no longer be able to get back what he lost. Thus, the best outco for him right now was for Zhang Heng and the patrol team to be driven out of this place. The middle-aged Jew frowned. He did not expect Zhang Heng and his n to make such a powerful appearance.

“Are you here for a fight or eting?” he asked.

“Of course, we are here to attend the eting. But don’t you forget that we are still the patrol mbers. It’s our responsibility to maintain law and order of this place. We must not forget our responsibilities. In fact, we had just finished patrolling the nearby streets, and we rushed here imdiately,” Zhang Heng took off his helt as he spoke.

The leaders of the various forces in the tavern quietly scolded Zhang Heng in their hearts when they heard what he said. Everyone knew that he was lying. If it were not for the patrol team and Soap’s gang, the southeastern part of the city wouldn’t have fallen into such chaos. Let alone enforcing law and order, the security and safety of this part of the city were no better than before.

Fights constantly broke out on the streets now. After seeing what happened to Bronze Arm, the other bosses were forced to bring bodyguards whenever they headed out. At tis, they even felt insecure in their own turf. Think about it. If the criminals felt insecure about the place, there was no way law and order could be adequately enforced.

The middle-aged Jew was also taken aback when he heard what Zhang Heng said. Sure, he said nothing wrong. He shouldn’t have been the one to say sothing like this. Since the Jew represented the Jewish gangs, he had no intention to dwell on such a small issue. He could always hold them accountable anyway if there were more ti later. Hence, he simply nodded at Zhang Heng’s excuse. “Since you are here, please take a seat.”

Zhang Heng thanked him politely and led Aris and Marcus to sit at the table beside Soap.

Imdiately, a waitress poured wine for the three of them.

Just then, the middle-aged Jew ca to the center of the tavern too. He first glanced at the leaders from different forces.

“Thank you, everyone, for taking the ti to attend this eting,” he said. “I will not waste any ti talking about anything useless. The situation here is getting worse, and I believe it has affected the bosses’ businesses. So people have called for Mr. Lockeed to set this right, but it has always been the principle of the Jewish gang to allow everyone to handle their own issues. I don’t think you guys want us to stick our nose into your business. Evidently, the situation is gradually getting out of control, thanks to the unruly behavior of a small group of people. So, the Jewish gang is obliged to get things back on track.

His remarks were imdiately supported and applauded by everyone. On the other hand, Soap was sitting on the needle.

Everyone knew who the small group of people that the middle-aged Jew had just ntioned was. He then looked at the patrol team. “We are reasonable people. As the party of concern, do you have anything you’d like to explain and add on?”

The middle-aged Jew went straight to the topic they wanted to discuss today. The situation in the tavern was like a trial now, and the subject on trial seed to be Zhang Heng and his patrol team.

“What do you an by unruly and out of control?” Zhang Heng asked indifferently as if he did not feel the vainly tense atmosphere. “As a patrol team, is it not normal that we catch criminals and tackle criminal activities? Since Mr. Lockeed invited

to this eting, he seed to consider the patrol team as one of the gangs here. According to the rules of your Jewish gang, you shouldn’t stick your nose into gang business, right?”

“The problem is that you are not normal, especially compared to a month and a half ago,” the middle-aged Jew confessed coldly.

“I think we couldn’t be more normal than we were a month and a half ago. At that ti, the patrol team lacked the strength to operate normally. Because of that, we could not perform our duties. Everyone treated us as nonexistent. Now that we have the strength, we, of course, have to carry out our responsibilities.”

“So you an you were just fulfilling your duties?” The middle-aged Jew pointed at Soap, “Well, as far as I know, you are pursuing criminals on the surface. However, you secretly colluded with his gang to deal with other forces. After you eliminate the other bosses, he will take over all their turf and gang mbers. Is this also your responsibility?”

Zhang Heng said, “So you want us to arrest all the local criminals and throw them in jail? By doing that, you will wipe out all the criminal activities in this place. The reason why we did what we did is that we respect the Jewish gang a lot. Yes, we only catch first offenders, but we do not stick our noses into the affairs of others. And we will not change the way the gangs conduct their business. When the ti is right, we will also find the right person to take over the gang. The inco of the Jewish gang will not decrease. So, when you describe us as out of control, I hope you’ll take into account the concessions we’ve made to maintain the order here.”
