Li Du shook his head. "If an apology works, then what's the point of the law?"
Hans whistled. "Wow, Li, when did you become so bossy? I like that sentence. "
Bart shrunk his body into the water and said, "Don't go too far, Li. There's security here. I'll get security to protect me."
Li Du said, "Of course you can. If you're not afraid of letting more people see your bird, then you can call anyone. You can even call the Arizona militia."
Bart tried to stay calm and said, "I don't care. I'll get security to bring me a set of clothes. I'll change in the water."
As a man, his bird was not small. However, as a black man, his bird was not that big. Especially after being soaked in the cold water and frightened, it shrunk into a small ball.
Men, especially black men, were more concerned about this kind of thing. Li Du had pinched his sore spot, so he became more obedient.
Hans came up to help. He waved his phone and said, "You don't care? Then I'll send the video to the guys. I bet all the treasure hunters will be willing to watch. "
Li Du added, "I have a bunch of photos here, very interesting photos."
Bart showed an angry expression, then became depressed. He smiled and said, "Don't be like this, guys. I was wrong just now. I'm willing to apologize."
If these photos and videos were to be spread, he would not be able to survive in the storage auction industry.
One of the treasure hunters who was with him said, "Bart, don't be afraid. They wouldn't dare to do that. It's an invasion of your privacy."
Hans laughed coldly. "Yeah, and then what? We have the money to hire the best lawyers. We have a way to make it impossible for you to find out who sent these photos and videos. So, what can they do to us? "
"Don't go too far, Big Fox," the treasure hunter said.
Li Du pointed at him and said, "Too far? Who's going too far? My cat was just passing by, and you splashed it with hot water! What is this? This is animal abuse. I can also sue you, understand?! "
The treasure hunter was terrified. He muttered, "It's none of my business."
Bart said, "Li, listen to me, listen to me. I was wrong, but the truth is that we are all victims. It was that b * stard Freddy who instigated this. Why else would I hurt a cat?"
Li Du narrowed his eyes. "Freddy?"
"Yes, yes, it's Freddy. He encouraged me to splash the cat with hot water. He encouraged me," Bart quickly said.
Li Du said, "Very well, I will deal with him. But now I have to settle the matter of you hurting my cat."
"I apologize!"
"I don't accept it!" Li Du said coldly.
Bart shouted in despair, "Then what do we do? For God's sake, let me go this once. "
Li Du looked at the kettle at his feet and said, "Did you use this water to scald my cat?"
A bad premonition appeared in Bard's mind, and he asked in horror, "What do you mean?"
Li Du said slowly, "I'm a fair person. I don't bully people, but I don't want to be bullied! What I mean is, let me burn you with hot water, and we'll call it even! "
Bard subconsciously roared, "Absolutely not! D * mn it … "
Li Du waved his phone and said, "Well then, you better pray to God that your photos won't attract the media's interest. Otherwise, you can become an internet celebrity."
"That's even better," Hans laughed. "It's much easier to make money as an internet celebrity than at storage auctions."
Godzilla, who was usually a man of few words, also opened his mouth. "Do you need a manager?"
Bart squatted in the water with a face full of grief and indignation. A group of people surrounded him, as if they were looking at a monkey in a zoo.
This was obviously not a good feeling, and the black youth finally asked in despair, "Are you really going to be so cruel?"
Li Du said expressionlessly, "For those who provoke me, I'm already being merciful by not killing them all!"
Bart clenched his teeth and said, "Okay, I promise you!"
Hans had a cynical smile on his face, and asked Li Du in a low voice, "Are you really going to do this to him?"
Li Du said, "Why, you think I'm cruel too? Compared to Marlin from the casino, I should be considered merciful, right? "
"That's different, brother," Hans said.
Li Du said, "Yes, it's different, so I'm just giving him a taste of his own medicine! Anyway, I don't want to be friends with him, so isn't it good to use him as an example to others? "
What he did was indeed a little cruel, but Americans, especially black people and Mexicans, were like this: they bullied the weak and feared the strong. They had repeatedly bullied him, and he had endured it, not wanting to make things too ugly.
However, after the incident at the casino, he finally understood that the Confucian culture and the value of harmony had no place here. If he didn't want to be bullied, then he had to be ruthless and fierce enough!
Li Du didn't want to be a bad person, but he also didn't want to be a coward. If people didn't offend him, he wouldn't offend them. If people offended him, he would punish them from afar!
Using his foot to kick the kettle, he said, "You scalded my cat's back. I can allow you to choose any part to bear the hot water. Do it yourself."
The black youth gave him a venomous look, one hand covering his lower body, the other trembling as he picked up the kettle.
After hesitating for a few seconds, he gritted his teeth and lowered the kettle's spout onto his shoulder.
The hot water splashed onto his shoulder, and he screamed as he threw the kettle into the water. He shouted, "Are you satisfied?! Are you satisfied? Are you satisfied?! "
Li Du waved his hand and left with Hans and Godzilla. He still wasn't cruel. Bart only poured a little water, and he could tell that the guy was putting on an act.
However, he had achieved his goal — to make an example out of Bart!
They stayed at the spa for a day and a night. A thousand dollars not only allowed them to soak in the cold spring water, but they could also rest for a night.
The next day, the auction for the old houses began. Fifty to sixty treasure hunters appeared at the entrance of Cumulus Community.
When Li Du and the others arrived, the treasure hunters made way for them. No one dared to provoke the two.
Apparently, the news of him punishing Bart had spread.
Looking at the crowd, Li Du said, "There aren't many people."
There were more than forty houses, and only fifty to sixty people had come to the auction. The number of people was indeed small.
Hans explained, "It's very simple. Everyone has been scammed by the old house auctions before. Not many people have made any money, so they are not interested in this type of auction."
The auctioneer was Li Du's acquaintance, Aiden Humphries. He was a famous old auctioneer in Flagstaff. He was in charge of all the storage units of Smith Storage Company.
Seeing Li Du and Hans, he nodded and greeted them. "I wish you guys a lot of luck. I'm relieved that you guys are here."
To the treasure hunters, Li Du and Hans were competitors. To the auctioneers, they were the people who would give away money.
Li Du would always get something from the auctions he participated in. Many people would bid after him, which made it easier for him to get a high price. The auctioneer earned a commission from the auction price, and naturally liked people like Li Du and Hans.
At nine o 'clock, Humphries whistled and shouted, "Guys, let's get to work. Same rules. You guys have one minute to walk around the house, but don't touch anything. Otherwise, leave!"
