Chapter 248: Chapter 218: You Want to Harm Me? Your Cultivation Isn’t Enough!_2

"Piers, stop!" A policeman comes down from upstairs, with nothing in his hands but a gun:

"Hold on, I have questions for him!"

The person upstairs is obviously higher-ranking than Piers, so Piers can only reluctantly stop and shove Sean Knight forcefully:

"You better hope for your own sake there’s no issue!"

The policeman is tall and strong, standing in front of Sean Knight with an oppressive, condescending presence, asking him:

"What are you doing here?"

"I’m a treasure hunter, and my partners, reporter Luke and policeman Forsythe, are here looking for wealth."

Sean Knight is 99% sure that Forsythe is behind this, and he does not hesitate to sell them both out:

"They provide the address, I find the treasure. It’s just that simple."

"Is it really that simple?" This policeman is clearly skeptical, "We received a tip that there is an illegal trade involving prohibited items happening here. And our informant told us that the parties involved in the transaction are a Yellow Race person and a white person..."

He didn’t continue, but the meaning is clear.

"I don’t know about that. I’ve only been here for five minutes, and the surveillance on the road should be able to prove that I’m not lying." Sean Knight shrugged his shoulders, "Besides, I’m a legitimate treasure hunter with a lot of industry assets. I have no reason to engage in such a high-risk, low-reward affair compared to treasure hunting!"

Upon hearing this, the policeman is somewhat incredulous and asks:

"You mean to say you’re a very famous treasure hunter?"

"Yes, or you could call me a Treasure Hunter."

Sean Knight thought for a moment and said:

"I can name some celebrities who can vouch for my identity. That’s it, I will not answer any more questions until my lawyer comes - but I suggest that you might want to check your informant, as there might be some misunderstanding..."

At this moment, someone walks in from outside:

"I am Mr. Sean Knight’s lawyer. I now suspect that you are illegally questioning my client, and I have the right to bring a lawsuit against your actions..."

A white man in a suit, carrying a briefcase, came in, voicing his opinions loudly as he walked.

Upon seeing Sean Knight, his tone immediately softened:

"Mr. Knight, from now on, you don’t have to say a word. Let me handle everything!"

The policeman looks at the lawyer, hesitating for a moment. Sean Knight observes this and wonders if the policeman might recognize the lawyer.

At this time, other police officers have returned to report one after another in the room.

Although the reporting voices are somewhat low, Sean Knight can hear clearly that they haven’t found anything.

Sean even noticed that they didn’t even find the mezzanine behind the cabinet door.

It looks like they’re somewhat amateur!

Sean’s suspicion of Forsythe deepens. Unless they were convinced the items would be easy to find when they arrived, there could not be such an outcome!

After hesitating for a moment, the policeman waved his hand and said:

"This might be a misunderstanding..."

"No! I think this is a deliberate conspiracy against my client! I will represent my client in a lawsuit against your racially discriminatory and lawless behavior, seeking compensation..."

The policeman is somewhat annoyed:

"You better figure it out. We are just responding to a tip! You appeared inside a building suspected for illegal transactions, we have the right to question you..."

"But your appearance is highly suspicious! My client is a highly respected individual, and your actions make him feel insulted..."

Sean Knight feels that this lawyer is amazing!

He hasn’t said anything, but he has already put the police on the defensive.

However, Sean also realizes that if things continue like this, It could easily lead to a deadlock.

"Alright, I also know that the police might be misled by informants which led to this misunderstanding."

Sean knight interrupted, and the lawyer immediately shut up.

Hearing that Sean Knight didn’t want to pursue the matter further, the policeman’s face softened, and with some politeness, he replied:

"Once I go back, I will thoroughly investigate the informant to get this cleared up!"

With that excuse, Sean Knight saved face and agreed not to pursue the matter further.

When the police withdrew, Sean Knight asked the lawyer:

"Who sent you here?"

Sean Knight thought the lawyer’s arrival was too coincidental, and too prompt.

"Ms. Kathy hired me, and after you guys got here, Mr. Elijah sent me the location, so I’ve been on standby nearby," the lawyer gave a slight bow to Sean Knight, "Mr. Knight, actually, if you hadn’t interfered just now, I would have had enough confidence to make the police pay compensation!"

He still had some regrets.

Sean shook his head:

"No, that’s not the case. The police were used. It’s a conspiracy."

For the lawyer, the client’s request is the standard, so he had no opinion about Sean’s decision.

After all, he had already taken the money.

Sean went out and saw Luke tidying up his clothes in embarrassment.

Obviously, he had also suffered "unfair" treatment just now.

"Luke, I suggest we go to your house now to discuss some things."

Luke was also a little scared and nodded repeatedly:

"Okay, okay."

He then thought of something, pointed at the courtyard, and asked:

"What about here?"

"Don’t worry, Forsythe will take care of it."

Two cars quickly drove to Luke’s house.

At the entrance of Luke’s house, he was about to open the door when he heard voices inside.

"Don’t worry, sweetheart, that bastard Luke and that yellow monkey must be at the police station being questioned right now!

With this gold, we can enjoy life! And Luke doesn’t even know, hahahaha..."

It was Forsythe’s voice!

Luke’s face turned red in an instant!

He rushed in, and Forsythe, who was holding Luke’s wife, jumped in shock!

"Luke, how come...?"

"Forsythe! I thought you were my best friend! So I brought you along for this opportunity to get rich, but I never thought you... you would actually..."

Forsythe calmed down, let go of Luke’s wife, and the lady hastily arranged her clothes, stuttering to Luke:

"Luke, listen to my explanation..."

"Explain what?" Forsythe impatiently interrupted her and said to Luke:

"Things are just as you see them. You are so blinded by that damn wealth that you don’t care about your home. And your wife, so gentle, so beautiful, yet you ignore her..."

"Forsythe, damn you, don’t say another word!" Luke yelled in rage:

"That’s not a reason for you two to betray me!"

He looked around, and Forsythe, as if knowing what he was after, took out his own backup gun and handed it over, mocking:

"What, do you want revenge? Luke, forget it! Even if I give you the gun, you wouldn’t be able to shoot!

Don’t you remember? How many times have you been beaten while investigating that damn information? You had a weapon, but you didn’t know how to fight back?"

Luke stared at the gun, trembling and taking a step back.

Forsythe became more certain that Luke wouldn’t dare to use the gun, even took a step forward, and directly handed the gun to his hand:

"Come on! It’s me who seduced your wife! Take the gun and shoot me, you coward!"

Forsythe suddenly shouted, openly humiliating Luke:

"You can’t even protect yourself, so how can you protect your wife? Your wife following you is simply a waste! Can you make her happy? Can you protect her? You can’t even protect yourself!"

At this point, Forsythe thought it was enough and reached out his hand again:

"Come, Luke, give me the gun back. The gun can’t play a role in your hands. Let’s end this matter right here! What are you guys here for? Do you have any new gains? Come on, let me have a look!"

Forsythe thought he had appeased Luke.

He thought he knew Luke’s character well, so this matter wasn’t a big deal in the end.

Luke slowly raised his hand, Forsythe thought he was going to return the gun, and while smiling and reaching out to get it, he said:

"See, that’s good, that’s good, your attitude is just right..."

"Bang!"
