Dark Light Chaser.

Chapter 267 Testing each other
Under Ah Er's leadership.

The four of them arrived at a small private room in the hotel.

The private room wasn't large, but it was very exquisite.

As soon as Gao Bin entered, the table full of seafood immediately caught his eye.

He quickly took the spot in the very center of the table.

Song Jie's gaze shifted back and forth between Xia Qiyuan and Gao Bin.

Judging from the behavior of the two people in the hall, Xia Qiyuan should be the one in a dominant position.

But Gao Bin's current behavior of daring to take a seat from the leader has confused him again.

Is this guy pretending to be weak while actually being strong?
Song Jie never expected that Gao Bin would sit down so quickly.

Simply because it's a middle seat, so you can eat all the food on the table...

After the dinner started, Song Jie tried his best to liven up the atmosphere, but Gao Bin and Xia Qiyuan...

One was busy eating and drinking, while the other was just tapping away on a tablet, occasionally using serving chopsticks to pick up a couple of bites.

Song Jie's attitude was completely "you go on, I'm listening."

This put him in an awkward position.

The tense atmosphere lasted for about ten minutes.

Xia Qiyuan finally put down his tablet and looked at Gao Bin: "Have you eaten enough?"

Gao Bin was just putting a slice of abalone into his mouth when he saw Xia Qiyuan looking at him, and his face fell.

However, with outsiders present, he couldn't openly complain.

Reluctantly, he put down his chopsticks and reached into his pocket for the skull ring.

Wearing a ring is done inside the pocket, so no one can see it.

Stimulated by the chemical substances inside the ring, Gao Bin used his super-sensory abilities on Song Jie.

In order to retrieve Song Jie's memories and save Gao Bin's extrasensory perception time.

Xia Qiyuan turned to Song Jie and said, "Boss Song, I think you know why we're here. We want to use your connections in Qianhua City to help us find someone."

Xia Qiyuan handed over the tablet in his hand: "Boss Mu Sisong should also know you, so I won't go into too much detail."

Based on observation, he should have fled to Qianhua City. I wonder if Boss Song remembers him.

I remember, of course I remember, he's doing it to me right now.

Song Jie calmly took the tablet computer and swiped his fingers across it.

He stared at the tablet for two or three minutes before finally handing it back.

Song Jie stared intently at Xia Qiyuan's face, his eyes full of sincerity: "I'm sorry, Prosecutor He, as you know, Mu Si is also an intelligence dealer. Even if Qianhua City is my territory, I can't find him if he hides."

"I didn't ask you if you could find him. I'm asking you or your men if they've seen him."

Xia Qiyuan rested his head on his right hand and fiddled with a dinner fork in his left.

The silver-white fork, like a nimble white snake, coiled back and forth between Xia Qiyuan's fingertips.

Xia Qiyuan's behavior was completely unrelated to the profession of prosecutor.

More like a street thug wielding a butterfly knife than a prosecutor.

Song Jie showed no anger at Xia Qiyuan's extremely impolite provocation.

He met Xia Qiyuan's gaze and said, slowly and deliberately, "I have never seen him."

Xia Qiyuan smiled and stared into Song Jie's eyes.

Although he had injections in his face, he showed no micro-expression reactions.

But a person's eyes can also reveal a lot.

For example, a liar will often stare intently into the other person's eyes.

Observe whether the other party believes what you say and is eager to seek results.

In addition, keeping a close eye on the other person can also mask your own inner panic and put pressure on them in return.

Even though Song Jie looked away after speaking, as Shi Feng's master...

Xia Qiyuan's skills far surpass those of this apprentice.

In just a few seconds, he concluded that Song Jie must have met Mu Si, and perhaps even had some interaction with him.

For the average person

If you have a deep enough understanding of psychology, you can use it just as well as mind reading.

It's just that the process is a little complicated.

"Never seen it before... Then Mr. Song, you wouldn't mind helping me look for it, would you?"

Xia Qiyuan asked with a smile.

Song Jie smiled ingratiatingly and said, "You're joking. Didn't I just say that Mu Si is one of the top figures in our industry? If he really wants to hide, no one can find him."

Boom!
Xia Qiyuan pinched the fork between two fingers and instantly pinned it to the mahogany dining table.

"There's no one you can't find. The reason you can't find someone is simply because you haven't put in enough effort. Don't you agree?"

Song Jie was not intimidated by Xia Qiyuan's actions.

But when he shifted his gaze to the fork, his eyes narrowed slightly.

The front half of the fork is completely submerged in it.

The redwood, known for its hardness, seemed to transform into a wanton woman in a brothel at this moment, easily penetrated by someone.

"Is Prosecutor He planning to use violence to coerce us?"

Song Jie asked with great interest.

“Violence and coercion? No, no, no, I’m a prosecutor, how could I do such a thing?”

After listening, Xia Qiyuan waved his hands and shook his head repeatedly: "I know very well that finding Mus is not an easy task, otherwise the Neva City police would not have been searching for so many years without success."

"Haha, so you mean I'll be able to find it?"

Song Jie laughed twice, then took a swig of red wine: "It's an honor to be so highly regarded by you. I'd like to toast you!"

"Oh, oh, oh, Mr. Song, you're too kind."

Xia Qiyuan smiled and picked up his wine glass, slightly wetting his lips with the wine as a gesture of reciprocation.

"Although you think so highly of me, that bastard Mus..."

"Hey, Mr. Song, don't be so quick to refuse."

Xia Qiyuan immediately interrupted Song Jie's excuse: "I wonder, what does Boss Song think of the current situation in Qianhua City?"

Song Jie's heart skipped a beat.

In Qianhua City, Song Jie wouldn't care who asked him this question.

But when it comes from the mouth of the Asia Union's prosecutor, it carries a different meaning.

"A beautiful environment, people living in peace and contentment, and a very promising development situation?"

"Mr. Song, there's no one else here, so let's not talk about those empty words."

Xia Qiyuan adopted a nonchalant attitude and patted Song Jie on the shoulder: "I wonder if Boss Song would be interested in taking over all the underground properties in Jiuhua City?"

Even Song Jie, who was usually calm, was startled by these words.

Take over all the properties in Jiuhua City? How is that even possible!

Almost every faction has intricate connections with the local area.

Song Jie is indeed a powerful figure in the underground world of Qianhua City.

But this doesn't mean he can be as absolute as the emperor.

Regardless of whether the other local powers would agree to Xia Qiyuan's proposal.

Even if they are willing.

Jiuhua City is so big, he doesn't have enough manpower to manage the territory.

In the end, it all comes down to obeying orders but not decrees.

"Prosecutor He is joking. I'm doing legitimate business."

Song Jie chuckled dryly, inwardly cursing Xia Qiyuan for being a lunatic.

You think you can just take it down like that? Why don't you just fly to the moon?
