Chapter 269 - 267 Let’s Go Home
"You...."
Ye Futu’s expression turned ugly in an instant. He had never expected Rose to be so resolute, completely impervious to persuasion, "Fine, President Rose, I assure you that nothing will happen to Lu Tianxing, but I hope you won’t act rashly. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be something either of us could bear, and I believe you wouldn’t want to see everything you’ve worked for destroyed in an instant."
"Director Ye, I hope your assurance holds true. Three days—if I don’t see my man return safely within three days, I fear I might really go mad."
Rose stood up and waved her hand towards the back, "Xiao Liu, see Director Ye out."
"No need, President Rose, I will take my leave."
Ye Futu stood up, with Zhao Shan, and left Zero Point Bar.
Once they had left Zero Point Bar, Zhao Shan, who had been holding back from speaking, finally couldn’t help but say, "Director, why do we have to cooperate with an underworld force? Wouldn’t it be easier to just wipe them out? Why do we have to submit to them?"
"Wipe them out?"
Ye Futu pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and sighed, "Zhao Shan, you are too young. Wiping out the Rose Society is easier said than done. Moreover, in the territories controlled by the Rose Society, how many engage in illegal activities? If you wipe them out, can you ensure that their successors will be as self-disciplined as the Rose Society and avoid those forbidden activities?"
"Since ancient times, where there is darkness, there is light. We need them to suppress the other unsavory elements. Without them, Modu might fall into chaos. Do you think our police force alone can handle those undesirables?"
Zhao Shan was silent, saying nothing. Ye Futu was right. The police force alone couldn’t achieve this. The people from the underworld guerrilla against them—come when you leave, leave when you come, hiding whenever necessary, making them impossible to find, yet, the underworld can find each other with ease.
