They were armed and looked menacing.
Upon seeing Jenny, the bodyguards nodded respectfully in greeting, then glanced at Su Feng.
Su Feng remained expressionless, deliberately suppressing the surging spiritual energy within his body, trying his best not to reveal any trace of it.
If anything unusual is detected at this critical juncture, all our efforts will be in vain.
"Boss, the person has arrived and is inside."
The two bodyguards spoke softly, then slowly opened the door.
"Alright, you can go now." Jenny gave the order with a forced smile before walking into private room "090".
Su Feng followed behind and entered the spacious room filled with warm light.
The room was filled with the aroma of food, and a round wooden table was set with all sorts of delicacies from land and sea.
It was a feast for the eyes and the palate, with creatures that flew in the sky, crawled on the ground, and swam in the water...
At the table sat a man with long hair, elegantly drinking wine and eating food.
"Mr. Kamikawa, I have long admired your name!"
When Jenny saw the man, she greeted him with a respectful smile.
Clearly, this man named Kamikawa is someone of great importance.
Judging from Kamikawa's surname and appearance, he is clearly the Japanese person that Jiang Dalong mentioned.
Su Feng followed and took his seat without changing his expression, calmly observing Shang Chuan in front of him.
Something strange...
Although they couldn't detect any spiritual energy from the other party, there was a faint but obvious killing intent.
This person seems to be no ordinary individual.
Jenny and Kamikawa seemed to have corresponded before, and this was their first meeting.
They talked for a long time in each other's native languages before finally turning the conversation to David and Su Feng.
"Mr. Kamikawa, these two are my friends. We've worked together before. David is the son of the mayor of Jiuquan Town. We're only able to expand our sales in the local market thanks to his help this time!"
Jenny said cheerfully, but the listener looked serious, with a hint of ferocity in his eyes.
Jenny paused. "Mr. Kamikawa? Is there a problem?"
"No."
Kamikawa glanced at Su Feng and David with his eagle-like eyes, then raised his glass with a sinister smile, "Since they are Jenny's friends, they are also my friends. Cheers."
David raised his glass with trembling hands, and just as he was about to drink it down, a flash of silver light suddenly appeared in the room!
There was a loud whooshing sound!
Everything seemed to happen in the blink of an eye...
Snap.
The wine glass in David's hand shattered and fell to the ground, and he remained motionless, as if petrified...
Immediately afterwards, a thin red line appeared on his neck.
The next second, blood gushed out from the wound—
It was all spilled on the table...
David died without knowing anything about what had happened, his throat slit.
Su Feng sat calmly to the side, somewhat surprised to witness this scene.
So fast!
He only saw Kamikawa raise his cup and lift his hand, but in the blink of an eye, he drew his knife and then accurately killed him!
Kamikawa held his blood-stained katana, his cold gaze finally settling on Su Feng.
Jenny, standing to the side, was stunned and had no idea what was going on.
"Mr. Kamikawa! Why, why are you doing this to David..."
"You're really confused!" Kamikawa glared angrily at Jenny, but his gaze never left Su Feng. "This David was captured by the local warlord a few days ago!"
"He's probably already confessed about the opium! Didn't you realize this was a trap?!"
Hearing Kamikawa's words, Jenny was stunned, but he was quick to process them. In just a few seconds, he sorted out all the clues, then stood up with a complaining look on his face and wiped the blood splattered on his body with a handkerchief.
"Really... Even so, Mr. Kamikawa, you should have told me before you made your move... This is a suit I just bought."
Kamikawa snorted coldly, raised the cold blade in his hand, and slowly approached Su Feng.
The tip of the knife was pressed against his brow, less than a finger's width away.
"You're David's friend, right? So you must be involved in this too?" Kamikawa said menacingly, narrowing his eyes.
Faced with the threat, Su Feng remained calm and unmoved.
"I don't understand what you're talking about," Su Feng chuckled, slowly picked up the wine glass on the table, and took a sip. "I'm just a businessman, all I care about is profit. What else is it to me?"
"Oh?"
Kamikawa raised an eyebrow with interest and slowly moved his face closer. "But isn't that strange? I killed your friend right in front of you, and you didn't react at all?"
This taught him something very strange.
Rather, he had never seen such a calm person.
He remained calm even when facing a desperate situation...
"My grandfather once told me that in this situation, there are only two kinds of people: either a coward who pretends to be calm but is actually scared to death, or a master who keeps a low profile and waits for the right opportunity. So, Young Master Su, which one are you?"
Su Feng showed no interest in the two-option question, leaning back lazily in his chair with a meaningful smile on his face.
"you guess."
The word "simple" is not enough to directly teach Kamikawa a difficult situation.
Anger flashed in his eyes, and the sharp edge he gripped tightly in his hand seemed intent on being stained with blood once more.
but……
He eventually put the knife away.
"Hahaha! — Truly commendable courage!"
Kamikawa suddenly laughed and nodded to Su Feng with satisfaction. "Actually, I was just lying to you."
"How would I know whether David is allied with the local warlords? I just don't like this guy..."
"He looks shifty and has shifty eyes. You can tell at a glance that he's not the kind of person who can keep secrets... On the contrary, I admire your courage, Mr. Su. I'm willing to do this business with you."
As Kamikawa spoke, bodyguards entered from outside and carried away David's body.
The private room quickly returned to calm... but that was only on the surface.
Test?
Su Feng sneered inwardly.
This is definitely a trick the Japanese love to play...
He almost made a move just now, not to vent his anger for David, but because he was furious at the arrogant Japanese man in front of him.
It was as if his genes were etched into his very bones, causing his blood to boil and his killing intent to surge.
If Kamikawa hadn't sheathed his sword at the last moment, everyone present would probably be dead.
"Come, come, that was just a little incident. Let's talk business now... Young Master Su."
Kamikawa smiled, raised his glass, drank it all in one gulp, and then began to talk about serious matters.
It's basically just a business deal involving the transportation and sale of opium.
According to Kamikawa and Jenny, Jiuquan Town was just one of the sales points.
They used the power of the town mayor and his son to secretly distribute the opium, selling it at a profit of 60 percent.
In addition, they also have undercover agents in other towns, and their network is quite extensive.
Su Feng was unaware that in the past two years, the Japanese and Westerners had infiltrated so deeply!
"I already knew of Young Master Su's name earlier. He's a very important figure in Renjia Town! He's incredibly wealthy and would be the most suitable partner for us!"
Kamikawa spoke enthusiastically.
Su Feng was stunned for a moment, and an ominous premonition rose in his heart.
How did these Japanese people know my background?
Could it be that their opium business has already expanded to Renjia Town?
Could Ren Fa also be an insider in this matter?
Countless mysteries began to emerge in my mind.
“Oh, right—”
Halfway through the conversation, Kamikawa seemed to remember something and revealed a sinister smile, "Before we discuss business, we have another guest coming."
"Oh? Who would come so late?" Jenny asked, somewhat surprised.
Su Feng remained silent, observing the situation.
Snap——
The door to the side room was pushed open, and a familiar figure was ushered in.
"General Jiang, it's a pleasure to meet you!"
Kamikawa stood up and quickly greeted him.
The person who arrived was none other than Jiang Dalong!
At this moment, Jiang Dalong was covered in blood, his face filled with horror, as if he had just taken a trip through hell.
He sat down as Shangchuan gestured for him to sit, looking dazed. He glanced around timidly, and only when he saw Su Feng did he regain some composure.
