Chapter 331 — A Calm Response

The car headed for the city exit, where someone had set up a roadblock, stopping every vehicle leaving the city. Only a few cars were let through; the rest were all halted there, some waiting anxiously for something, others simply turning around and heading back.
Wei Zhao did not park by the roadside like the others. He drove straight on toward the roadblock ahead.
"Boss, you're going to run the checkpoint? There are so many of them — don't do anything crazy..." Xie Jinbiao was getting scared.
Wei Zhao turned his head and glared at him coldly. Xie Jinbiao shut his mouth at once; Wei Zhao had told him not to speak, and he had spoken — a chill of fear ran through him.
He should not have doubted this boss's ability. He must have a plan! Xie Jinbiao consoled himself.
"Stop!"
As Wei Zhao's car neared the checkpoint, the Water Blue Gang men stationed there flashed a signal torch at him and gestured for him to stop...
Wei Zhao stopped the car, and several Water Blue Gang members closed in: "Get out! What's your business here? Don't you know the Water Blue Gang has sealed the road? Huh? You're one of ours? Lift your head — how come I don't know you?"
"Brother, I... I wanted to ask, what's going on up ahead? Why is the road sealed?" Wei Zhao asked "cautiously."
"What's with all the questions? I asked you what your business is, and where did you get that cap?" The Water Blue Gang member found Wei Zhao highly suspicious and demanded.
"Brother, I bought this car today from the Water Blue Gang's repair shop. Brother York gave me the cap — I bought the car from him. He said that as long as I wore this cap, no one in Blue Town would give me trouble..." Wei Zhao went on explaining "cautiously."
"Oh? You say you bought this car from us?" The man nodded and shouted to another Water Blue Gang member standing not far off: "Chief, there's a fellow here who says he bought his car from us, that York sold it to him, and the cap was a gift from York too!"
"Then call York. If he confirms it, let him go; if not, take him back!" The little chief was busy checking other cars and had no time to waste on chatter here. He waved a hand and went off to other business.
"Then wait a bit!" The man checking cars was considerably more polite now — after all, this person might be a customer of the Water Blue Gang.
He took out his phone, searched his contacts for a long while before finding York's name, and dialed. York was evidently checking cars somewhere too; he picked up and said hurriedly: "Lazi? What do you want with me?"
