Chapter: 3064

Mack Jing simply said: "I won't hide it from you. There has been a significant breakthrough indeed."

Xuan Feng-yi eagerly asked: "What kind of breakthrough? Can you be precise to the minute?"

Mack Jing hesitated and said: "Well... Master Xuan, I'm afraid I can't say too much over the phone..."

Xuan Feng-yi's tone became somewhat displeased and he said: "What's there not to say? Just tell me the clue and I'll go find that person and kill them. That way you and I can both go report back to Old Mr. Du."

Mack Jing chuckled to himself and said: "Master Xuan, I'll just say it straight out. The clue is something I can tell you, but I still have one small condition..."

Xuan Feng-yi's tone suddenly turned cold and he asked: "What kind of condition? You've got some clue now and want to negotiate with me? Mr. Mack, don't forget that finding that mysterious person is your own responsibility! And using that person to get something from Old Mr. Du...

"Is it not, my task to handle? You do your own part, and I'll do mine. Don't you want to talk conditions with me?" Mack Jing chuckled and said: "Master Xuan, it's an old saying that goes well - when people don't take care of themselves, heaven will punish them, and earth will destroy them. I came all the way from afar to China just to earn some money, for I never did anything like this before, and who knows if I'll have a guilty conscience afterwards."

He continued: "I've been in China for several days now, searching high and low for clues and indeed went through a lot of hardships."

Mack Jing's tone changed suddenly and he said: "But, Master Xuan, you just arrived in Jinling yesterday. If I give you the clue today, who knows if you'll kill that person tonight and then take your money and leave? Compared to yours, my earnings were indeed much harder!"

Xuan Feng-yi asked coldly: "Mr. Mack, do you mean to take some money from me?"

Mack Jing laughed: "Oh, Master Xuan, I don't mean that at all. I just want to chat with you and see how many people we can get from Su's family, and then combine our times in Jinling and calculate a fair amount for the three of us."

"Then if we got more than what's fair, we'll compensate you for your extra part," he said.

"But if you got more than what's fair, you'll have to compensate us for yours."

Mack Jing's expression changed suddenly upon hearing these words, and his face turned red with rage.

In his heart, he thought to himself: "This old fellow is really shameless! He wants to calculate based on time and people at this moment, just like he's not willing to spare a life. What an audacious person!"

However, he didn't directly express his anger over the phone because he was well aware that killing Mack Jing's ancestors would be no trouble, but what would be difficult is finding out who did it after they were killed.

So, he decided to find a way to extract clues from him instead!

He then calmly asked: "Mack Jing, since you want to have a chat, shall we set a time and place?"

Mack Jing hurriedly said: "Why don't you come directly to White Jade Palace, Master Xuan? I've booked a suite here with a nice environment."

Master Xuan rejected: "I hate places like hotels. If not for that, I wouldn't have stayed in Jinling all this time, and we could just meet at the Phoenix Mountain Cemetery instead."

"Phoenix Mountain Cemetery?" Mack Jing exclaimed: "Your ghost has eaten up that security guard's brain. There are rumors saying he was eaten by a ghost, causing everyone to be on edge, and I'm afraid the relevant department is also keeping an eye out there. It wouldn't be suitable for us to meet there again?"

Master Xuan spoke calmly: "To be honest, I spent last night at Phoenix Mountain, and apart from that, this place indeed has a nice view, and no one disturbs me here. When the police came to investigate the body in the morning, I even got close to take a look. Now that people are on edge, the guards at this cemetery don't dare go on duty at night anymore, so we can discuss things here without worrying about being eavesdropped."

Mack Jing thought for a moment and then expressed some concerns: "Master Xuan, Phoenix Mountain Cemetery is indeed quite secluded. Why don't we find a place that's closer instead?"

"To be honest, I spent last night at Phoenix Mountain, and apart from that, this place indeed has a nice view, and no one disturbs me here. When the police came to investigate the body in the morning, I even got close to take a look. Now that people are on edge, the guards at this cemetery don't dare go on duty at night anymore, so we can discuss things here without worrying about being eavesdropped."

"Mack Jing, if you're willing to give me clues right now, then we won't need to meet at all, but if you want me to take out a portion of my earnings for you from my pocket, that's not acceptable. You'll have to follow my demands!" JrNovels.com
