Chapter 621 Doubting Anyone Would Disagree

“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.

Filled with hope, Guo Si quickly inquired, “What should I do then?”

“Get us out of here after you finish your drink,” replied Nan Chen. “Huh?” With his eyes widened in surprise, Guo Si immediately disagreed with Nan Chen. “Absolutely not!”

“Suit yourself,” voiced Nan Chen coldly. Guo Si then explained with a hardened face, “I’ve already told you my situation. They’re threatening me with my wife and children. If I let you all go, they’ll harm my family for sure.”

“We’ve been here for days, but did they come to the island?” questioned Nan Chen.

“No.”

“So how did they know about our situation here?” continued Nan Chen.

“I told them about it, of course.”

“Then do you know why they never came to this island?”

Guo Si shook his head in response. “I don’t.”

“They’re fine with letting you handle things alone because they think you’re honest. When the police come, they’ll say they have no idea what’s happening here since they’ve never set foot on this island. Who do you think will take the blame then? You may think you can explain yourself, but you have no one to back you up. There are many of them, so they can alibi each other and testify against you. What can you do about that? Besides, they have the village head as their leader, so how will a regular villager like you stand a chance against them?”

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?
