Nan Batian slightly furrowed his brows, “Why has Chen Jiusi become so polite all of a sudden?”
He had initially hoped that Chen Jie would be arrogant at this moment, and then he would strike with a palm, killing him off just like that.
He had observed Chen Jie’s strength earlier; it was indeed Energy Transformation, but it was still far inferior to his own. Although the Stone Breaking Hand had already possessed nine parts of Peng Shizhong’s power, he still did not take it seriously.
However, Chen Jie was being so respectful that he needed to respond with virtue.
As a Gang Leader, he couldn’t bluntly say, “I want to kill you.” What would that look like?

As a Gang Leader, he must always stand on the side of justice.
At that moment, he frowned and said, “Chen Jiusi, you killed your foster father and today you come to White Tiger Hall to create trouble. Do you really think the Fishing Guild is made of clay?”
“Gang Leader, you must not slander me; I did not kill my foster father. I came here today for this very reason, to seek justice for myself and to avenge and wash away the resentment of my foster father,”
Chen Jie asserted in a tone neither humble nor arrogant.
“Hehe, just because you say you didn’t kill him, doesn’t mean you didn’t. That day so many people saw it, and you still want to argue?”
Upon hearing Chen Jie’s words, Qin Ying, who was sitting not far away, looked over with utter contempt in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Nan Batian also said, “Exactly, this matter is already set in stone; how could you still argue against it?”
Chen Jie continued, “Hehe, is there direct evidence that I killed my foster father?”
“Need evidence? If you didn’t do it, why did you run?”
Qin Ying said disdainfully, showing that you ran because you felt guilty. If you didn’t do it, why did you run?
What a classic phrase.
However, Chen Jie was not a man of slow wit. Hearing this, he looked towards Nan Batian and said, “I didn’t run; I went to find evidence!”
“Evidence, hehe, who knows if it’s just fabricated by you, still trying to deceive us?”
Qin Ying scornfully remarked.
Upon hearing this, Chen Jie calmly responded, “Then let me have the witnesses come up and let everyone decide.”
“What’s there to decide, you patricide scoundrel. We don’t have time to waste words with you. Gang Leader, quickly give the order, let’s capture this thief together. The mighty Fishing Guild cannot be threatened by him,”
Qin Ying roared.
Nan Batian, upon hearing this, said, “Chen Jiusi, even if you talked up a storm today, we wouldn’t believe a word. You, a patricide scoundrel, seize him!”
As soon as Nan Batian finished speaking, Feng Xuan and Qin Ying were already raring to go, two against one: how could they lose?
Just then, suddenly Qimu Ge stood up and said, “Wait!”
“Hmm?”
Upon hearing this, everyone looked towards Qimu Ge.
He was, after all, the Mulan Commander, and he stood behind Darugachi; who would dare disrespect him?
As Qimu Ge spoke, everyone turned to look his way, and Qimu Ge said, “We in Mianshui County conduct our affairs with a focus on fairness and justice and will not wrong anyone. Chen Jiusi says he has evidence proving he is not the murderer of Peng Shizhong. Why not let him speak?”
“True gold fears no fire; I do want to hear what he has to say. What does Guild Leader Liu think?”
Hearing the words and reading the tone, Elder Liu was a very shrewd man. Hearing this, he looked at Qimu Ge and immediately laughed, “Haha, Commander Qimu Ge’s words are most apt. Whether Chen Jiusi killed Brother Peng is not yet determined. An undecided matter should allow for a defense. Thus, I think we should let Jiusi speak. What does Miss Hongyan think?”
Miss Hongyan replied, “I’m just a woman; I won’t involve myself in these significant martial arts community affairs. However, if he says he has evidence, and the Fishing Guild doesn’t let him show it, it rather appears that they have something to fear.”
A comment that was just enough, and Miss Hongyan was very tactful.
At this moment, Qimu Ge looked toward Nan Batian and said, “Guild Leader Nan, do you think what I’m saying makes sense?”
Nan Batian was stunned. What was Qimu Ge trying to do by interrupting at this time?
Meanwhile, Tang Ziyue, not far away, keenly sensed the issue and the answer in his mind became even clearer—Chen Jie had colluded with Darugachi Mansion!
If Darugachi was behind this, it was very bad.
This suggested that Darugachi might be dissatisfied with the Gang Leader.
This was a very dangerous signal.
Thinking this, Tang Ziyue immediately stepped forward and chuckled, “Hehe, what Commander Qimu Ge says is very true. Since Chen Jiusi has evidence, the Gang Leader should see it. Our Fishing Guild has always been fair and just.”
Nan Batian was stunned, looking puzzled at Tang Ziyue.
But Tang Ziyue gave him a look, meaning don’t be stubborn; this matter is fishy.
After pondering for a moment, Nan Batian said, “Fine, bring your evidence!”
At this moment, Chen Jie smiled and said, “Good, bring in the witnesses!”
After saying to bring in the witnesses, Chen Jie’s underlings immediately brought people inside, and Chen Jie said, “Spring Breeze Theater, everyone is familiar with it. But does everyone know there is a secret passage in Spring Breeze Theater?”
“A secret passage?”
Everyone was stunned and looked at Chen Jie, who continued, “Yes, a secret passage. That passage leads directly from the outside to inside. The day my foster father Peng Shizhui met his fate, the secret passage entrance was right beneath the floorboards of that room.”
“You all can go check it out.”
“This is the owner of the Spring Breeze Theater; he can prove the existence of this secret passage!”
Chen Jie pointed at a middle-aged chubby man who was pushed forward; he was the owner of the Spring Breeze Theater.
Then, Chen Jie pointing at the chubby man said, “Manager Wang, tell everyone about this secret passage.”
Hearing this, the middle-aged chubby man immediately trembled and stammered, “That, the secret passage has been there since the building was constructed, there is a hidden door outside that leads in.”
