A scheme capable of harming so many people could not have lasted this long without careful planning. The merchant's attempt to shift the blame onto him was almost predictable.
Lin Feng calmly looked at the smug man without the slightest hint of anger on his face. To the merchant, it might seem as though he had regained control of the situation.
To Lin Feng, however, the man was merely making his final struggles. A fish trapped in a net would always thrash about desperately before its death.
The crowd remained divided. Some believed the merchant's words, while others remained suspicious. The uncertainty hanging in the air was exactly what the merchant wanted.
Seeing the hesitation on the faces around him, the merchant's confidence grew. His smile widened. He believed that he had successfully turned the situation around.
Unfortunately for him, he had met Lin Feng today.
