Chapter 338 Backstage Manipulator
Seeing several men in black getting off the commercial van, Emmett clasped his hands behind his head and said frivolously, "What must be must be. You can hardly stay longer when your god is calling on you."
Hearing him murmuring, the driver was a little flustered. He swallowed hard and asked, "Dude, have you offended someone you shouldn't have offended?"
Emmett admitted frankly, "Yeah! It seems they came for revenge."
Although the driver was driving an unlicensed taxi, he was a rule follower, so he had never seen such a scene before. Therefore, he was scared and said, "I will not charge you for today's fare. Can you…"
He wanted Emmett to get out of the car, but he was too embarrassed to say it.
In this case, if he kicked him out, he might be killed.
Hearing the driver stammering, Emmett turned his head to look at him and joked, "Do I look like a short-lived man?"
Looking at the men in black approaching through the car window, the driver couldn't laugh, so he replied helplessly, "No."
Emmett said slowly, "Great minds think alike."
The driver was speechless.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the car window three times from the outside, and the driver shuddered with fright.
Emmett slowly rolled down the car window, smiled at the men in black outside, and joked, "Dudes, are you working overtime on New Year's Day?"
The men in black were all expressionless.
Emmett asked, "Do you have a lighter? I want to smoke a cigarette."
The leader looked down at him, stepped back, and made a gesture to his subordinates behind him.
His subordinates understood what he meant and stepped forward. One of them grabbed Emmett by the collar and tried to drag him out of the car window, but the latter was stuck in the middle.
The leader said coldly, "Get out of the car by yourself! Otherwise, I will cut off your arms and pull you out."
Emmett raised his head and laughed, "I'll get off by myself! It's inauspicious to see blood on New Year's Day."
Then, he glanced at the man who was dragging him and said, "Dude, can you let go of me? I can't get out if you continue grabbing my collar like this."
The man did not let go but turned his head to look at the leader.
After the leader nodded his head, the man immediately released Emmett's collar.
Emmett then fell back into the passenger seat, fixed his collar, took out his wallet, and gave the driver too hundred dollars.
The driver said in a trembling voice, "No, no need."
