"What are you all still standing here for? Put down your guns right now!" Murray said to his subordinates, "And soone bring Mr. Zhang a chair! Mr. Zhang is here to assist with our investigation, not as our prisoner!"
Not only were the bystanders stunned, but even Murray's own n were flabbergasted. Hadn't Murray just been acting all high and mighty a mont ago? Why had he suddenly turned into a groveling grandson? What on earth had been said in that phone call just now?
"66666! Society regards Boss Zhang, a man of few words but profound influence. One phone call and he scared the Minister of Defense himself!"
"Now that's a true big shot! He was all tough a mont ago, how did he suddenly beco so timid?"
"Look at his expression, he looks like a beaten dog! His integrity shattered all over the place!"
"Bullying a Huaxia person? Seems like they hit a steel plate this ti, huh?"
"Aweso! So thrilling! This is the presence our people from Huaxia should have! I got so excited I ended up punching my roommate."
"High energy warning ahead! Knowing Mr. Zhang's personality, I don't think he's going to let this slide just like that!"
"Yeah, just now they had guns aid at his head; any normal person would've peed themselves by now, but only Mr. Zhang could remain unfazed."
"If Mr. Zhang lets him off the hook just like that today, I'll directly throw myself into a running fan!"
"Exactly, I bet Mr. Zhang is fuming inside. If he lets it go, I'll eat my computer right here and now!"
For the netizens, most ca just for the excitent, especially since yesterday's event was particularly significant. Regardless of whether Zhang nglong was responsible or not, they were there to show their support!
Just ten minutes ago, most of them were filled with worries about Zhang nglong's safety. Once he was detained, predicting what would happen next was difficult.
But in just ten minutes, the situation took a dramatic turn. With a single phone call, Zhang nglong had stirred the Minister of Defense, and now, he transford from a prisoner to the most honored guest.
This turn of events refreshed the Huaxia netizens who had been worried before, and moreover, the thrill and pride from yesterday surged again. This was the power of their people from Huaxia!
Unlike the live watchers from Huaxia and the tourists who ca for the spectacle, the locals in Frankfurt appeared quite disheartened, especially the reporters who usually thrived on speculation, wishing now that they could literally crawl into a hole.
Murray's change of attitude was a massive mockery to them! To grovel and kowtow to a Huaxia person whom they sowhat looked down upon felt like a great indignity and sha.
However, for Zhang nglong, today's drama was just getting started.
"What exactly did that Bush Mullin say to him?" Zhang nglong was curious himself. If Haigen had rely called to warn Murray not to ss around, it shouldn't have been enough to scare him to death, right?
At least Murray's attitude was so obsequious that it was sowhat unbelievable. He even tried hard to capture every expression of Zhang nglong, as if trying to decipher his thoughts.
Not only that, but Murray's hands and feet were trembling slightly, a state that occurs only under extre fear. Could this Bush Mullin actually be a ghost?
"Mr. Zhang, right now, over four hundred missiles are locked on their Presidential Palace in Europe. How could he not be obsequious?" Ye Yin cleared up Zhang nglong's confusion.
"What? 400 missiles? What's the situation?" Even Zhang nglong was shocked. He had only asked Haigen to knock so sense into the people of Frankfurt; how had it escalated to military intimidation so quickly?
Monts ago, Zhang nglong had been puzzled; the Ministry of National Defense and the public security sectors were completely different systems. Even if soone had co to warn Murray, it shouldn't have been Bush Mullin, the Minister of Defense.
Now, Zhang nglong understood. This Bush Mullin had no choice but to intervene!
Years ago, Frankfurt had set up a security defense system in Europe, which could detect any threats to their safety instantly. Seeing over 400 missiles, how could Busmulin not panic? If those missiles had actually co, he, as the Minister of Defense, would have been the first person responsible!
"Really, it's just teaching a silly fellow a lesson, there's no need to make such a big fuss," Zhang nglong shook his head, "Next ti just hint with a nuclear bomb, don't waste so much resources!"
"Hey, you guys, why did you stop filming? Weren't you almost shoving the cara in my face just now? Co on! Give
a few more close-ups!" A few journalists who were about to leave dejectedly were stopped in their tracks by Zhang nglong, "Rember not to release raw images, photoshop them for . If I'm not satisfied with the photoshopped images, I'll just buy out your newspaper!"
"Hahaha!" The Huaxia people present burst into laughter. Indeed, once Zhang nglong started being unserious, he began spouting nonsense.
"Do as Mr. Zhang says!" Murray commanded in an undeniable tone.
The journalists trembled in fear and looked at Murray for help, but Murray stared back at them threateningly, as if they'd be in trouble if they dared to defy Zhang nglong!
The journalists were inwardly distressed. They had only co to join the fun today, how had they ended up in such a situation?
"Mr. Zhang, as you can see, it's getting late, and our investigation has also concluded. How about I arrange for soone to take you back?"
"Go back? Who said I was going back?" Zhang nglong snorted coldly, "Didn't you just ask
to stay for further investigation? I think it's better for
to stay, so no one thinks we Huaxia people are unruly!"
"It's done for, easy to invite the god, hard to send him away, they're dood!" Zhang nglong's old fans knew what he was like. They had seen the treatnt Zhang nglong received earlier, and he had not yet vented his anger. Would he let Murray off that easily?
"Well, I'll be damned!"
"Nuclear energy warning ahead!"
At that mont, Murray's phone rang again, displaying the sa number as before.
"Murray, what exactly are you doing? Why hasn't the missile lock been lifted?" Busmulin berated sharply, "I'm giving you one last five minutes. If this isn't resolved by then, even if nothing ultimately happens, I'll have you tried at a military tribunal!"
"Beep beep beep...."
Murray hadn't even managed to say a word before Busmulin hung up. Murray froze for two seconds, looked blankly at the ceiling, and then walked over to Zhang nglong.
"Mr. Zhang, I apologize, it was all my fault, I've been too impulsive in my actions. I hope you can forgive !"
"Wow!" A wave of astonishnt swept across the room.
Although Murray had already backed down, his previous words were not explicit. But now, he had openly admitted his error in front of the mainstream dia, which completely changed the implication.
"Forgive you? You haven't done anything wrong, what am I forgiving?"
"There he goes with his old Underworld talk!"
"Despicable, but I like it!"
"Mr. Zhang, please, if you don't forgive , I will be tried at a military tribunal!"
"Wow!" Another uproar arose. Had things really gotten that serious?
"Forgive you? Alright!" Zhang nglong shrugged his shoulders, "Dance a pole dance for , and I'll pretend nothing ever happened!"
