Li Du drove to catch up with the Tucson gang. They had started to pack up the warehouse yesterday and finished early that day. They were driving back to Tucson.
Finding them was easy. They were towing a half-wrecked Lamborghini as they swaggered down the road.
Southern Arizona was mostly deserts and deserts. There were no houses along the highway, only bare ground and some cacti that could be seen from time to time.
When there were no cars on the road, Li Du made a phone call and said, "Force them to stop."
The driver drove like an arm, and the sports car shuttled nimbly through the convoy, like a deer running in a herd of deer.
But the truck was not a deer. The drivers were shocked and quickly turned the steering wheel and stepped on the brakes.
In the car in front, Princeps was sitting in a daze. The truck suddenly made a turn and stopped. He lost his balance and was almost thrown onto the driver's seat.
This made him very angry. He raised his head and wanted to curse. But when he looked up and saw the Ferrari sports car in front of him, his face suddenly changed.
The car stopped, and the grumpy Tucson men opened the door and jumped out. They stared at the Ferrari, ready to teach the driver who forced them to stop.
Behind them, another pickup truck drove up. The door opened, and Li Du got out with Godzilla, Brother Wolf, Big Ivan, and the others.
These Tucson treasure hunters already knew who Li Du was and how powerful he was. When they saw Li Du, they subconsciously restrained their anger and looked at him warily.
Li Du pointed to Princeps and said, "Come, Boss Princeps, I have something to talk about."
Princeps looked at him coldly and said stiffly, "I have nothing to talk to you about. Get your car out of the way. We want to go home."
Li Du smiled and said, "Go home? Go home to where? You want to leave without making things clear? How can there be such a good thing? "
One of the Tucson men shouted angrily, "Hey, man, don't go too far. Are you bullying us because we don't have any men in Tucson?"
Li Du looked at him and smiled. "I bullied you? Ha, ask your boss Princeps, who is the bully? "
Princeps could not take it anymore. He came forward and said sternly, "Li, what do you want? Enough, you've gone too far. You set me up for this broken warehouse. How much money have I lost because of you?! "
Li Du said contemptuously, "I've gone too far? How much money have I caused you to lose? You nearly caused me to lose my life! "
He looked at the Tucson men and continued, "You don't know what Princeps has done, do you? He couldn't beat me at the warehouse auction, so when I went to Mexico, he contacted the local gangs to kill me! "
Hearing this, the Tucson men's faces darkened.
It was shameful for the Tucson men, who had been raised to be tough men since childhood, to stab someone in the back when they were not a match for him in a direct confrontation.
"Don't talk nonsense," someone said discontentedly.
Li Du smiled disdainfully and said, "Nonsense? Do you want me to show you some evidence? This is a personal grudge between me and your Princeps. If you are willing to intervene, I am willing to accept it as well! "
Seeing that things were about to get out of hand, Princeps' anger gradually dissipated and he became much more depressed.
He said to Li Du, "It wasn't me. I wasn't the one who wanted to kill you in Southern Nogales …"
"That's not what Vulture from the Country Bumpkins Group said," Li Du sneered.
Princeps took a deep breath and said, "I admit that I was the one who contacted Vulture, but I was not the mastermind. I was just being used."
"Who is the mastermind?" Li Du asked immediately.
Princeps shook his head and did not want to say. Li Du continued, "Then I will cause trouble for you. Believe me, Princeps, I can make you suffer!"
"I know, I know." Princeps raised his hand tiredly. "I'm already afraid of you, Li. You are a ruthless character. I'm telling you, it was George, George Anthony. He made me do it."
Li Du asked, "George Anthony? Ha, you don't think I'll believe you just because you spit out a name, do you? "
"It's really him, it's him," Princeps said. "Look, here are our chat records. I saved them."
He took out his phone and showed it to Li Du. On the chat software, there was a series of chat records discussing him. Many of them were of George teaching Princeps how to trick Li Du.
Princeps said, "You believe me this time, don't you? I'm telling the truth. I'm afraid of you, I'm afraid of you. Don't pester me anymore. I won't go to Northern Arizona in the future. I will only stay in Tucson. So, let's not meet again. "
Li Du took a screenshot of the contents on Princeps' phone and sent it to him.
After sending the message, he threw the phone back to Princeps and said coldly, "Don't leave Tucson in the future. If you leave Tucson, I will definitely look for you."
He had wanted to teach Princeps a lesson. After all, this guy had once hired a gang to murder him. Of course, they might not have wanted his life. The country bumpkins did not have the guts to kill an American.
But now, he had received a more important piece of information. George Anthony was indeed a smiling tiger!
Knowing the mastermind behind the scenes, Li Du did not want to let Princeps off just like that. There was no such thing as a free lunch in the world. If you made a mistake, you had to accept the consequences. That was the rule of the treasure hunter industry.
Li Du thought quickly. He looked at Princeps and said, "Are you willing to stay in Tucson in the future?"
Princeps laughed bitterly and said sadly, "Of course, I have seen through many things now. Tucson is actually not bad. It is a big city, a big place."
Li Du said, "Very well, then you help me with one thing. Then we are even."
Princeps's expression changed and he said cautiously, "Help you with what? I don't need to help you with anything … "
"If you don't help me, today you will have to accept the punishment for provoking me. If you are willing to help me, I will help you cover half of the loss of this abandoned Lamborghini." Li Du interrupted his call.
Hearing this, Princeps was conflicted.
He understood Li Du's character and knew that Li Du was never willing to do things that would put him at a disadvantage.
In fact, in his opinion, Li Du could not be taken advantage of. Even if he were to be at a disadvantage, he had to be very careful and cautious to be Li Du's enemy. Otherwise, he would end up like his old self, not knowing how he died.
Li Du had asked him for help and was willing to pay the price of 200,000 dollars. This was not a good thing to help!
But did he have a choice? Princeps looked around blankly. After some consideration, he could only lower his head helplessly and said, "Tell me, what is it?"
Li Du crooked his finger at him. When Princeps came closer, Li Du said something in a low voice.
Before Li Du could finish, Princeps hurriedly shook his head. "No, no, no, I can't do this. I can't offend them …"
"Then you are willing to offend me?" Li Du asked. "And you have to be clear, I am not harming anyone. I am retaliating. It was you who harmed me first! Also, speaking of which, they are actually our common enemy. They are using you as a tool, which is also harming you!
"Moreover, there is still 200,000 dollars to be paid."
Princeps's face was red. He looked at Li Du, panting heavily. After some hesitation, he said helplessly, "Alright, say it again!"
