“The police should be here soon. If you do something before then, we'll testify for you and prevent you from getting locked away in prison. On top of that, you'll get to keep the one hundred thousand,” stated Nan Chen after exchanging looks with Ning Ran.

You don't have to fear him because it won't be long before he gets what he deserves. Even if you take us elsewhere, none would be the wiser since they refuse to come to this island. Didn't you say it yourself that they'd enter the city tonight? Not only is that more than one hundred kilometers away, but the road is also under maintenance. There's no way they can get here any time soon. Those people are going to have themselves a good time eating and drinking in the comfort of the city. Heck, they'll probably even get drunk.
