As Qiao Feiyun listened, he quickly understood that the situation was dire. He instinctively pleaded, “Brother… I’ll do it, bro…”
Witnessing Qiao Feiyun’s desperate and pitiful demeanor, Jamura’s heart raced. He immediately glanced at the monitor overhead and shouted, “Palace Master Abbas, Palace Master Abbas, are you there? Miss Sun has been kidnapped! This idea came from Qiao Feiyun! He planned everything and is the mastermind behind it! Lord Abbas, please relay this to Mr. Wade and ask him to show me mercy!”
Qiao Feiyun was taken aback; he never expected Jamura to shift the blame onto him so quickly!
Moreover, from Jamura’s words, it seemed that the mastermind behind this situation was linked to Stefanie’s capture. If that were true, then it likely wasn’t the same group responsible for his brother’s death, right?
With this thought in mind, he blurted out without hesitation, “Jamura! Don’t you dare lie! This was entirely your idea! You’re the one who wanted to get Miss Sun, so what does it have to do with me?!”
Jamura shot back angrily, “You’re always so eager to please me, but now that trouble has arisen, you claim it has nothing to do with you. The kidnapping plan for Miss Sun was yours; you even recruited the ninjas from Japan. You arranged the boat that was supposed to blow up the ninjas in the end. That boat might still be at the dock! Do you really think you can escape blame with just a few words?”
Realizing the gravity of the situation, Qiao Feiyun glared at Jamura and retorted, “Seriously? You see me as a scapegoat the moment something goes wrong? You’re so foolish! Don’t you understand? We’re in this together!”
Jamura, noticing the anger on Qiao Feiyun’s face, replied coldly, “When I want to deflect blame, it’s my idea; but when I can’t escape it, I’m suddenly a grasshopper on a string! Qiao Feiyun, you’re the one who dragged me into this mess!”
Fuming with rage, Qiao Feiyun bit back, “You think I pulled you into this? If you hadn’t been up to no good all the time, I would never have supported you! I got dragged down because of you, and now you’re blaming me!”
Meanwhile, in the surveillance room above, Abbas watched the heated argument unfold and promptly cut the video feed, sending it to Charlie.
Upon viewing the footage, Charlie responded, “Send someone from Hattori.”
Abbas quickly sent a voice message back, assuring, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade, I’ll take care of it.”
He then instructed his subordinates, “Call Hattori Kazuo immediately.”
“Yes!” his subordinates quickly complied and summoned Hattori Kazuo.
When Hattori arrived, he respectfully asked, “Palace Master Abbas, what are your orders?”
Abbas gestured toward Qiao Feiyun on the monitor and said, “You recognize this person, right?”
Taking a closer look, Hattori’s expression darkened as he exclaimed, “Palace Master Abbas! It’s this scoundrel who deceived us into coming to New York!”
“Exactly,” Abbas replied with a nod. “Mr. Wade wants you to entertain him.”
Hattori was taken aback and quickly asked, “Um… Palace Master, how should I entertain him?”
Abbas instructed his subordinates, “Give him your tactical dagger.”
“Yes, Palace Master!”
With that, a subordinate swiftly retrieved a dagger and handed it to Kazuo Hattori.
Filled with disdain for Qiao Feiyun, Hattori accepted the dagger, his expression icy. He declared, “Rest assured, Mr. Wade and Master Abbas, I will certainly entertain this scoundrel!”
