CHAPTER 1012: CHAPTER 1010: ARRANGEMENTS

Xue Guangfu was speechless upon hearing Lu Xiaobu’s words.

Is there anyone who talks like that?!

He’s starting to show off!

"Right now, Japan should be searching domestically, thinking that we haven’t left by sea at all but are hiding in their country!" Lu Xiaobu said while roasting by the fire.

"At the same time, to resist external pressure, they will assertively claim that I’m responsible for this and have even found evidence. They’ll say they’ll capture me in no time!"

"And then?" Xue Guangfu actually listened as if it were a joke, since it sounded boring!

Lu Xiaobu might have control in Japan, but now that they’re here, he still can’t say for certain, and Xue doesn’t believe it!

Of course, he won’t show that disbelief, even an audience must act like one.

"And then? They’ll definitely fail to find us, once twenty-four hours pass, they won’t be able to withstand external pressure, they’ll have to make some changes," Lu Xiaobu smiled slightly: "For example, releasing the people at the evacuation point to go home!"

He knew Xue Guangfu wouldn’t believe him, but he didn’t plan to convince him anyway, just saying it for fun!

"So after twenty-four hours, the country can receive our news?!" Xue Guangfu’s eyes instantly lit up.

"Not really, after twenty-four hours they’ll announce the release of people, but will still monitor tightly, probably releasing them for real only three days later!" Lu Xiaobu said while flipping the grilled fish: "Meanwhile, I’ll be caught, maybe even declared dead!"

"What!?" Xue Guangfu jumped up directly, grabbed Lu Xiaobu and checked him over: "Are you injured?! Why would you die!"

"Relax! Relax! It’s not a real death, but they’ll say I’m dead in Japan!" Lu Xiaobu rolled his eyes: "They’ll announce fake news of my death."

"Oh, scared me to death! Why would they do that?!" Xue Guangfu breathed a sigh of relief, then continued to ask.

"It’s simple, because at that time they’ll know I haven’t returned to the country yet, so they’ll be more certain I’m still in Japan! But with increasing external pressure, to stabilize public sentiment, they’ll only use this trick!"

"This trick not only temporarily relieves external pressure but also provokes my Lu Family to rescue or take revenge at all costs! In this way, once my Lu Family sets foot in Japan, they’ll become a bargaining chip!"

Lu Xiaobu shrugged, arranging things clearly for Japan.

"Oh, I see, that’s why you insisted on sending your message back earlier!" Xue Guangfu suddenly understood.

"That’s right! And when they announce my capture, I can openly appear, and by then, Japan will cry collectively!" Lu Xiaobu snickered!

"Why would they cry?!" Xue Guangfu was confused, surely it won’t be that serious!

"Think about it! They’ve announced capturing the culprit, but I show up again, what will they do?!" Lu Xiaobu’s smile grew even more mischievous.

"You mean, they’ll have to swallow a dumb loss?!" Xue Guangfu figured it out, too.

"Exactly!" Lu Xiaobu laughed heartily!

"Wow! Amazing! If things really go as you say, I’ll treat you to a drink when we get back!" Xue Guangfu also laughed loudly.

Whether true or not, whether believed or not, it was entertaining to listen to!

However, what Xue Guangfu didn’t know was that everything Lu Xiaobu said was already unfolding!

Japan!

Everything was just as Lu Xiaobu described.

The Japanese officials held a press conference, assertively claiming, that they had found the hideout of the culprits and would soon capture them!

Just like before, although the officials didn’t directly name Lu Xiaobu as the culprit, the implication was clear!

With this news, the whole world was erupting!

Especially Japan!

"Damn it! Finally found Lu Xiaobu! This time we absolutely can’t let him go!"

"This Lu Xiaobu is too ruthless! And too crazy! First, he burned our Jingguo Shrine, now he’s humiliating us like this! This vendetta is irreconcilable! Once captured, execute him immediately!"

"Must capture Lu Xiaobu, put him on trial!"

"Exactly! That’s a must! Lu Xiaobu, stop hiding! You can’t escape!"

"..."

Other countries were also buzzing with discussion!

"So they’ve found Lu Xiaobu already?! What a shame!"

"Who’s to say otherwise? This Heavenly Dynasty fellow is so troublesome! I thought he could hide longer, maybe even escape!"

"But it’s normal, after all, it’s not a movie, just one person, how could he possibly contend with a whole country?!"

"What a shame, just one person will get captured by those beasts in Japan!"

"Yeah! Can’t understand why Lu Xiaobu would risk his future and even his life for something like this, when he’s such a successful entrepreneur?!"

"Ah! If Lu Xiaobu could really escape, that would be wonderful!"

"..."

As for the Heavenly Dynasty, they’re deeply worried!

"No way! Young Master Bu’s whereabouts have been found?!"

"Surely he hasn’t been caught!"

"No, that can’t happen! If Young Master Bu is caught, that’s bad news!"

"Think of something!"

"Yeah, ask the Lu Group! They should have a rescue plan, right!"

"Right, ask them!"

"..."

Lu Group.

Liang Lan and the other five women, along with Zhang Meng and Li Jin, were all gathered with the Lu family.

"Has Xiaobu really been found?!" Wu Qianmin asked worriedly.

"Should be fine! Should be fine!" Liang Lan said, forcing herself to sound calm: "If the Young Master really got into trouble, he’d find a way to send a message back! No news is the best situation!"

She seemed calm but you could clearly see her hands trembling!

Obviously, she wasn’t truly calm!

"How about I go with Li Jin?!" Zhang Meng said anxiously.

"No! No one can act impulsively!" At this moment, Lu Father showed the demeanor of the family head: "Everyone stay at home, don’t panic! We must show that Xiaobu is safe and sound!"

He truly was dependable, having once single-handedly killed his way into Xiangjiang, and later supporting the entire family, even at such a crucial moment, he could be relied upon!

"Yes, Dad is right, don’t panic!" Lu Hongbin also nodded and said: "Wait for the cargo ship to return news from Japan!"

However, if you look closely, you’ll notice Lin Shu soothing Lu Hongbin under the table.

Lin Shu knew, Lu Hongbin was already on the brink of rage!

As for Lu Wenhuo, he kept pacing on the side, and his frequent glances towards the kitchen suggested—this guy was thinking about grabbing a machete and going to chop someone!

From their demeanor, it was clear that if it weren’t for Lu Father holding the fort, chaos would have broken loose!
