Chapter 1282 : Principled People

• The soldiers drove the two of them with their guns, forcing them to kneel on the ground and stand up straight, pointing the pitch-black barrels at them.
• James walked up to them with a slightly guilty expression. He divided all the valuable items he had just received into two parts, keeping one part for himself and placing the other part in front of Bai Zhi. He said to Bai Zhi, who was staring at him, "Madam, I'm sorry I can't escort you to Jingguo Bridge. There are new orders from above, instructing me to execute you on the spot. Don't worry, my soldiers are well-trained. I'll try to make the shot hit your heart to minimize your pain. I've taken your belongings, and I won't take them in vain. After you die, I will help you dig a grave and bury you. I won't let the nearby wolves feast on your bodies. As for the remaining jewelry, I'll return it to you. I have principles, and I do what I promise."
• Saying that, James took out a cigarette from his pocket and distributed it to the soldiers around him. He lit one for himself and took a puff, saying to Bai Zhi and Huo Yaodong, "I'll give you the time it takes to smoke this cigarette. If you have any last words, you can say them to each other. After finishing this cigarette, my soldiers will immediately take action."
