"Gru, you screwed me over,"
Crawled out like a spineless mongrel, howling at his rival.
There's an unspoken rule in the underworld: you stop at hints.
Gru had no intention of kicking a man when he was down; after all, they were still colleagues, and he had to maintain a façade of professionalism.
"This is truly terrible, Klauer. How many casualties did your men suffer?
I need to assess the kidnapper's strength and prepare for tonight's assault."
Gru had no plans to attack, but he had indeed only seen the fight at the front door.
As the leader of Niangniang Temple substation and the person in charge of the next stage of the kidnapping case, he needed an accurate understanding of the kidnappers' capabilities.
"Seventeen casualties in total; eight dead and two injured at the front door, five dead and two injured elsewhere,"
There was no need for concealment, Klauer didn't want Gru to continue the assault; he was, after all, a professional police officer.
