325: Chapter 325 The Vendors Have Problems

Aaaagh!!

A miserable scream rang out.

Lin Heng grabbed the other party's hand, his expression calm.

At this moment, he glanced indifferently at the person in front of him, his calm gaze carrying a hint of mockery.

"What? You want to kill me?"

Lin Heng smiled.

"I... I'm not... I didn't!"

"National Advisor, how could I possibly think of killing you? You are a great hero of our Republic of Africa! Even if we were going to assassinate the Chieftain, we wouldn't assassinate you, National Advisor!"

The other party's face quickly turned deathly pale.

He was in a complete panic.

Licking his dry lips, the man spoke with a trembling voice.

However, Lubisang and the others couldn't possibly believe this line of reasoning.

"Hmph! You were clearly trying to assassinate the National Advisor. What exactly are your intentions!"

"Exactly! If it weren't for the National Advisor's exceptional skills, he probably would have been stabbed to death by you by now!"

"I... it really wasn't me, I really didn't want to do that, really... I swear!"

The black vendor had a bitter look on his face, tears and snot streaming down uncontrollably.

Lubisang and the others wanted to say more, but they were interrupted by Lin Heng.

Lin Heng's gaze remained calm.

He simply held the man's hand and then spoke to the US Officer beside him.

"The things you mentioned, are they here?"

"Yes! Right here! I swear! They are definitely here!"

The US Officer was also startled.

He swallowed hard and only reacted after hearing Lin Heng's words, speaking with a pale face.

After speaking, he turned to glance at the black vendor, his expression becoming somewhat unnatural.

He looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

To this, Lin Heng just nodded casually.

"It's fine, if there's something on your mind, just say it. I can still make the decisions here."

Since Lin Heng had spoken, the US Officer had nothing else to hold back.

He glanced at the black vendor and said:

"I don't know why, but the last time I approached this place, it was also because I encountered these people. They seemed to be intentionally trying to block us."

Hmm!?

This seemed to release some sort of information.

"What did you say!?"

At this moment, the vendors all became furious.

They gritted their teeth and glared at the US Officer!

"I'm warning you shameless white people, say one more word and believe it or not, I'll rip your tongue out so you can never speak again!"

"I..."

The US Officer's face looked bitter.

Seeing this, Lubisang and the others quickly understood.

These people likely had something to hide; otherwise, why would this be happening?

As for the US Officer lying?

That was even more unlikely.

After all, he only wanted to stay alive right now.

Would he dare lie to Lin Heng?

Especially over something like this?

Ridiculous!

Lubisang soon stepped forward, looking furious.

"The National Advisor is currently carrying out a highly confidential task. If you continue to cause trouble here, don't blame us for being rude!"

Hearing this, the vendors present quickly understood.

So all of this was at Lin Heng's behest!

Now, they all began to look troubled.

"We... Lord Lubisang, we didn't do it on purpose either, we were just too indignant..."

"That's right, you know how we were bullied by these guys before, it was truly humiliating!"

"It's simply hateful!"

"..."

The crowd voiced their resentment.

At this, the US Officer and his men felt even more terrified.

These black people really dared to charge up and kill them!

At this point, they could only stay behind Lin Heng.

Only this man could protect their safety.

Even standing behind Lubisang, they worried that guy might turn around and backstab them.

"Go, find the items. You lot, protect these people. If any accidents occur, I'll hold you responsible!"

Faced with the sounds of dispute, Lin Heng simply spoke calmly.

And now...

As Lin Heng spoke, the others quickly quieted down.

They now had a direction.

So, people soon began to carry out the task step by step.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

After the US Officer and the others left, Lubisang quietly walked over.

His expression was somewhat depressed.

"National Advisor, why didn't you let me go?"

"Those subordinates might be a bit clumsy, and you saw the attitude of the public toward the US Soldiers just now."

"I'm worried..."

Lubisang intentionally trailed off.

Hearing this, Lin Heng just gave a faint smile.

He crossed his arms and said casually, "It just so happens I have something I want you to investigate."

Hmm!?

Upon hearing this, Lubisang quickly perked up.

He looked around suspiciously.

Then Lubisang spoke in a low voice: "National Advisor... you mean..."

"There's something wrong with these vendors?"

Finally, Lubisang reached a conclusion.

To this, Lin Heng nodded.

"I certainly didn't notice at first, but I just realized that the look in these people's eyes seems a bit off."

The look in their eyes is off?

Lubisang was stunned for a moment.

He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

You can even see that?

What he didn't know was that in Africa, the black populace had an almost fanatical worship of Lin Heng, but from those people, Lin Heng hadn't sensed that at all.

Instead, he felt a sliver of hostility.

And previously, these people were also doing their best to obstruct them.

The US Officer had also mentioned earlier that when he first came here, he was also forced back by these people.

"National Advisor... you mean, they might very well be..."

"Shh..."

Lin Heng made a silencing gesture.

Lubisang quickly shut his mouth.

Lin Heng glanced to the side; he had already been targeted by these vendors.

He spoke indifferently to Lubisang.

"Do it discreetly. I want to know who is behind these people."

"Hehehe... Don't worry, National Advisor, I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"

Lubisang nodded, gave a chuckle, and quickly slipped away.

Lin Heng looked toward where the US Officer had gone, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Those who knew Lin Heng knew that this guy was at his angriest when he narrowed his eyes.

Every time he narrowed his eyes, it meant someone was about to suffer!

...

Two hours later.

A group of people came running over eagerly.

"Found it! We found it!"

The US Officer looked extremely excited, his eyes filled with a look of agitation.

He stumbled over to Lin Heng's side.

Thump.

Unable to control his momentum, the man fell to his knees before Lin Heng.

His face was full of excitement as he quickly looked up.

"We found the munitions!"
