Chapter 2916
?
Nathan and the rest sat down at the neighboring table.
They then ordered some food and also half a dozen beers.
Without hesitation, Sevan grabbed a bottle of beer from the table and brought it to his mouth, ready to bite down on it.
This fellow must have teeth made from steel. He can even crush the bones in the drumsticks!
Worried that Sevan might devour the beer bottle, Nathan hurriedly reached out to stop him. He then grabbed his bottle and taught Sevan the right way to drink.
"Some things aren''t edible. Come, let me teach you. You have to open the bottle and drink the contents in it."
As much as Sevan was intellectually challenged, it did not take too long for him to understand the steps.
He expertly traced Nathan''s actions, lifting his head and gulping down the beer.
The next second, his eyes lit up as he shrieked and danced in excitement.
It was obvious he had a tremendous liking for beer.
Seeing that, Nathan and the others burst intoughter.
The crowd around them also shot them strange looks.
Subsequently, Sevan reached out for his second bottle and began drinking. Catching sight of that, Nathan and the rest smiled and dug into their food. Right then, Colin''s phone vibrated. There was a text message.
Fishing out his phone, Colin nced at his screen and inched closer to Nathan''s ear. "That pair at the table next to ours knows you, Mr. Cross. The intelligence department of the Headquarters of the Chief Military Governor has already run a check on their backgrounds and sent it to me. They''re both officers from Interpol. The guy is called Haskell Dreyfuss, and thedy is Erin Whitehill. They''re here to capture a corrupted official who absconded here."
As it turned out, the two Interpol officers were here in secret to catch Sylvester Briggs, a corrupted official on the run.
Realization dawned upon Nathan.
No wonder there was an unfathomable glint in Haskell and Erin''s gazes when they saw meing in. They recognized that I''m the President of Eurasia!
He turned his head around to look at Haskell and Erin.
Coincidentally, Haskell and Erin were also staring at Nathan. As their eyes met, the two hastily straightened their backs and put a respectful look on their faces. The admiration for the man was overflowing from their gazes, along with their excitement at meeting him.
With a smile, Nathan bobbed his head slightly, both as a form of silent greeting and an affirmation of their hard work foring all the way here to capture a corrupted official.
Nathan''s appreciation for them made Haskell''s and Erin''s faces flush in immense jubtion.
Suddenly, the door to the bar was kicked open violently.
Immediately afterward, over twenty ferocious-looking men swarmed in from outside.
Those men wore ck T-shirts and jeans, along with riding boots on their feet. They were carrying weapons around their waists, including a revolver and a dagger. Some were even holding AK47 rifles in their grip.
Then, a plump middle-aged man in a tuxedo with his hair slicked back walked in, his arm wrapped around a gorgeous youngdy.
Following behind was a burly, bald man. He had skull tattoos all over his face, neck, and arms.
Surprised and fearful, the owner of the bar quickly went up to the bald man and anxiously queried, "Skeleton King, why are you here at my bar with so many of your men?"
Skeleton King snorted coldly. "We''re here because Mr. Briggs hired us toe here and deal with two b*stards. It''s none of your business, so you better not poke your nose in it."
Haskell''s and Erin''s faces nched at once.
It turned out that the big-bellied man was Sylvester, the corrupted official they had to capture this time.
They had not expected Sylvester to have received intel beforehand or hire ouws to deal with them.
As expected, Sylvester led Skeleton King and his men toward the two.
Sylvester sniggered. "Hahaha! You two specifically made a trip over here from Eurasia to catch me. I guess the two of you don''t n to let me off the hook, huh?"
Haskell and Erin rose to their feet.
With a sense of righteousness, Haskell expressed, "Sylvester, do you think you can get away scot-free by escaping overseas aftermitting so many crimes in Eurasia, including epting bribes and abusing thew?"
Likewise, Erin straightened her back and reprimanded, "Exactly. Since you know we''re here to arrest you, you better give up and follow us back to ept the legal sanctions."
Hearing that, Sylvester guffawed till his stomach ached.
The youngdy beside him and Skeleton King, too, burst intoughter.
Suppressing the urge to continueughing, Sylvester ridiculed, "You two want me to follow you back to× get sentenced to the death penalty? You must be kidding! There''s no way I''m following you back to be executed. On the other hand, you two can forget about leaving this ce alive!" Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.
Upon receiving the order, Skeleton King and his men pulled out their weapons and got ready to jump into action.
Not expecting themselves to run into such a situation, Haskell''s and Erin''s faces turned ashen. Nheless, they were still ready to put up a good fight with the other party. At worst, we''ll sacrifice ourselves in the line of duty.
Unexpectedly, just as a fiery showdown neared, a frosty voice sounded from the neighboring table. "I can''t believe a piece of trash like you could actually be a government servant in Eurasia."
Shock and fury consumed Sylvester as that voice rang out. Everyone turned to look in the direction of the source.
What came into their vision was Nathan, who was gracefully eating his steak.
Under everyone''s attention, Nathan put down his fork and knife, picked up a napkin to wipe his mouth, and looked toward Sylvester. "You disgusting trash. Thanks to you, I''ve lost my appetite to eat. Tell me, what should I do now?"
