Chapter 389: Chapter 388: The Nash Family Is in Danger

At ten forty in the evening, Yusuf Zuck, led by Russ Trujillo, arrived at a publicly operating tea house.

Yusuf had initially thought they would go to some sort of Dragon Group headquarters, but he never expected the meeting place to be a tea house.

After the two arrived at the tea house, the so-called deputy leader had not yet arrived, but Yusuf wasn’t in a hurry. Instead, he and Russ enjoyed some tea.

At five minutes to eleven, the partition door of the tea house was pulled open, and a pot-bellied man entered. This man, about forty years old and quite fat, was carrying a briefcase and didn’t look like a martial artist at all, but rather like a corrupt corporate executive, and he even wore reading glasses.

Yusuf was a bit confused — this was the deputy leader of the Dragon Group? No sign of Cultivation Level, no Inner Strength, he seemed no different from an ordinary person.

Russ stood up and cheerfully called out, "Boss."

Boss — that meant leader.

"Hello Yusuf Zuck, let me introduce myself. My name is ’Devin King,’ Russ’s boss." He didn’t mention anything about the Dragon Group or call himself a leader, just a boss.

"Hello, Boss Devin," Yusuf extended his hand first.

"No need for formalities." They shook hands and then sat down, as the partition door closed behind them.

Devin drank two cups of tea in one go, not bothering to savor the tea. After finishing his drinks, he directly said, "I won’t beat around the bush with you. I believe you’ve already asked Russ, so I’ll just ask you this — are you interested in working with me, with us?"

"Boss Devin, you’re being quite forthright," Yusuf said with a smile.

"We do good deeds. To put it grandly, we protect our Yan Huang descendants; to put it simply, we have public positions with salaries, and all sorts of benefits are quite attractive."

"But I must clarify one thing — we have no power to conduct investigations, interrogations, or bully anyone. Our department is independent and only reports directly to Number One!" Devin didn’t spell everything out, but the implication of Number One was clear even to a fool.

"I am willing to serve you, serve our Chinese people, for free. The rest is not necessary." Knowing that the other party was being straightforward, Yusuf responded in kind to avoid any misunderstandings. These people were not the sort he could afford to offend.

"Good, before we met I had analyzed you with my boss, and we figured you wouldn’t join. This is both good and bad for us. It’s up to you; we won’t force you. Also, we understand who you are and completely trust you, but there are a few things I need to tell you in advance!"

"First, don’t use your abilities to harm innocent people, at least not inside the country. If it’s overseas, try to keep a low profile. Deal with what you can quietly, and don’t bring trouble back to the homeland."

"Second, you’ve broken quite a few laws recently. I hope you will restrain yourself in the future and not think you can do whatever you want just because you think you’re the best."

"Third, although we can’t work together, we can still be friends and help each other out."

"I understand, thank you, Boss Devin." Yusuf’s thanks was full of meaning, and it was sincere. He wasn’t upset by Devin’s words, for he indeed had broken the law.

"Ha, no need to thank me. Although you’re not joining us, we’ve come to know each other now. Let’s frequently have tea, chat, and dine together in the future. Our organization, indeed, is very strict, so after much consideration, your temperament and business truly aren’t suited for joining us."

"However, there are many people like you who haven’t joined us but cooperate well with our work, both domestically and internationally. Some have even helped our members escape danger and so forth. I hope if we ever need your help, you won’t stand idly by!"

"I won’t." Yusuf shook his head. "If Russ and Felicity are with you, then we’re practically family. I’m the kind of person who helps his relatives, not necessarily the righteous!"

"Haha, I love hearing that."

"Um, those little Japanese who came, do they need me... to help out?" Yusuf Zuck brought up the three major factions that had launched the massive attack.

"No need," Devin King sneered, "Three major factions? They’re nothing but a fart. This time Dragon Group won’t take action either; there are people dealing with them."

"People?" Yusuf Zuck was taken aback for a moment, and Russ Trujillo also looked at Devin King with confusion.

"Little Japan isn’t even as big as one of our provinces, and we have over thirty provinces. How many people do they have? How long has their civilization been around? To be blunt, when our ancestors were dominating the world, they were still floating at sea acting as pirates. They think their three major factions are impressive, but here, they’re nothing but a fart. This time some old timers are taking action, so we don’t need to step in, and neither do you. We’re just responsible for providing intelligence and coordinating with all parties to deal with the aftermath."

"Of course, Japan is just testing the waters this time. The real big players haven’t come at all. They’re sending some pawns to cross the river and scout out the territory, but we take them down, big or small."

"Heh, if they come after me alone, I can go all out, right?" Yusuf Zuck asked with a smile.

"Don’t worry about that. What kind of place is the capital? As long as you’re in the capital, they won’t find you. Just go about your business."

"Alright, I’m reassured with your word." Yusuf Zuck figured it out. Japan isn’t the Japan of old, and we Chinese aren’t the Chinese of the past, or perhaps it could be said, many people have been waiting for Japan to come again. And now that they have, I bet there are plenty thrilled about it.

"I have another favor to ask of you," Devin King said to Yusuf Zuck with a smile, "Strictly speaking, it’s our first meeting, and I shouldn’t be asking you for favors, but I have no choice, this task can only be handled by you."

"What do you need me to do for you?" Yusuf Zuck asked, full of curiosity.

Devin King looked at him and said, "As I mentioned before, we trust you a lot. You’re very principled in what you do, and we’ve all noticed. So this matter should only be known to the three of us, don’t mention it to anyone else."

"Speak," Yusuf Zuck nodded his head.

"Nash family," Devin King took a deep breath, "You need to go back to the Nash family!"

"What, what?" Upon hearing Devin King’s words, Yusuf Zuck stood up abruptly. What did Devin King mean by this? What’s this about going back to the Nash family?

He knew that Devin King had already looked into his background and knew it was normal for him to be a direct descendent of the Nash family, but why was he being asked to go back to the Nash family? Did Devin King have some connection with the Nash family, or a past with them? Was this a request from the Nash family?

"Sit down, don’t get agitated," Devin King said with a smile, gesturing for Yusuf Zuck to sit.

"If you don’t explain clearly, there’s no need for me to sit down." He wouldn’t give face to anyone when it came to matters of the Nash family.

He could respect you, Devin King, not because you are some group leader or leader; it was because you were guarding the people, a nation, a point Yusuf Zuck admired. But if you, Devin King, wanted to meddle in Yusuf Zuck’s private matters, that would not be acceptable.

"I’m asking you to go back to the Nash family not because it’s the Nashes’ wish, but a personal request from me," Devin King said after thinking for a moment, "You see... the Nash family wields great influence. They have supported a few small African nations abroad, have labs overseas, and even mercenaries and pirates. In the past years, the Nash family was very loyal to the motherland, but in recent years, various signs indicate that they are no longer under control."

"It’s not that the nation wants to control a legacy clan, but the Nash family is engaging in many dangerous activities, even those that harm national interests. Due to various reasons, we can’t suppress the Nash family, so we thought of you."
